Objective To study the effects of modified Sanxiang Decoction on gastrointestinal transmission function of patients with functional bloating (FB). Methods Sixty cases of FB patients were randomly divided into treatment group (40 cases) and control group (20 cases). Treatment group was given modified Sanxiang Decoction, while control group was given placebo granules, one bag each time. Twice a day, taking it after mixing it with water. Gastrointestinal symptoms, 48 h GITT, and adverse reactions were recorded. Results There was statistical significance in TCM symptom scores between before and after treatment in the two groups (P<0.05). After treatment, the total score of abdominal distension, belching, anorexia and TCM symptoms of the treatment group were lower than the control group, with statistical significance (P=0.000, 0.000, 0.010, 0.003). The total effective rate was 82%(33/40) in the treatment group, 30%(6/20) in thecontrol group;the treatment group was better than the control group (P<0.05). A total of 30 patients completed gastrointestinal transit test, of which delayed 48 h GITT pass rate accounted for 54% (16/30). Compared with the control group, the 48 h GITT of the treatment group was more obviously improved than that of the control group with statistical significance (P=0.002). There were no significant adverse reactions in both groups. Conclusion Most of FB patients have the problem of abnormal intestinal motility. Modified Sanxiang Decoction can improve the symptoms of patients with FB, promote gastrointestinal motility, and improve intestinal transmission function.

Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of crocin on receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis using the monocyte-macrophage cell line RAW264.7. Methods The monocyte-macrophage cell line RAW264.7 was cultured routinely.After treatment with 0,6.25,12.5,25, 50,100,200 and 400 μmol/L crocin,cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)assay was used to analyze the viability of RAW264.7 cells to screen out the appropriate experimental concentration. RAW264.7 cells were induced by RANKL (100 ng/L) to form osteoclasts. After treated with 0, 12.5, 50 and 100 μmol/L crocin respectively, the number of osteolasts was counted by tatrate resistant acid phosphatasec (TRAP) staining. Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of calcitonin receptor(CTR),nuclear factor of active T cells 1(NFATC1),C-fos and TRAP.Results No significant effects of crocin (within 0-100 μmol/L) were found on the viability of RAW264.7 cells (P>0.05). However, When crocin concentration was over 100 μmol/L,the cell proliferation was decreased,and which showed a significant inhibitory effect on proliferation (P<0.05). Thus, 0-100 μmol/L crocin was selected as the experiment concentration. The amount of differentiated osteolasts and the expression levels of CTR,NFATC1,C-fos and TRAP mRNA were decreased significantly with the increased concentrations of crocin(P<0.05).Conclusion At a certain concentration(0-100 μmol/L),the higher levels of crocin could inhibit RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis.

The most effective sequence of small interfering RNA (siRNA) silencing STAT3 of psoriatic keratinocytes (KCs) was screened out,and the effects of the most effective siRNA combined with ultrasonic irradiation and SonoVue microbubbles on the expression of STAT3 of KCs and the dose-and time-response were investigated.Three chemically-synthetic siRNAs targeting STAT3 carried by Lipofectamine 3000 were transfected into KCs,and the effects on STAT3 expression were detected,then the most effective siRNA was selected for the subsequent experiments.The negative controls of siRNA (siRNA-NC) labeled with Cy3 carried by Lipofectamine 3000 combined with ultrasonic irradiation and SonoVue microbubbles were transfected into KCs,then the optimal parameters of ultrasonic irradiation were determined.The most effective siRNA carried by Lipofectamine 3000 combined with ultrasonic irradiation at the optimal parameters and SonoVue microbubbles was transfected into KCs,and the dose-and time-response of RNA interference was determined.The effect of RNA interference by the most effective siRNA at the optimal time and dose carried by Lipofectamine 3000 combined with ultrasonic irradiation and SonoVue microbubbles (LUS group) was compared with that only carried by Lipofectamine 3000 (L group).The results showed that siRNA-3 achieved the highest silencing efficacy.0.5 W/cm2 and 30 s were selected as the parameters of ultrasonic irradiation.The siRNA-3 carried by Lipofectamine 3000 combined with ultrasonic irradiation and SonoVue mierobubbles could effectively knock down the STAT3 expression at mRNA and protein levels in dose-and time-dependent manners determined at 100 nmol/L with maximum downregulation on mRNA at 48 h,and on protein at 72 h after transfection.The LUS group achieved the highest silencing efficacy.It was concluded that siRNA-3 carried by Lipofectamine 3000 combined with ultrasonic irradiation and SonoVue microbubbles could effectively knock down the STAT3 expression in psoriatic KCs,and the optimized transfection condition and the sequence of siRNA-3 could serve for further research on gene therapy of psoriasis.

Objective To establish a human cervical carcinoma cell line. Methods A primary culture was initiated from malignant tissue collected by dissection of cervical biopsy specimens.Characterizing cells in culture which included morphological observation,biological and karyotypic analysis,experimental tumorigenesis and the expression of p53,bcl-2 and Ki67 genes was carried out. Results The new established cervical carcinoma cell line (CS1213) had been maintained in culture for over 170 generations.The cells which were nonadherent had a common,rounded appearance with a cell cycle time of 25-hour and a 19 colony formation rate in soft agar.Electron micrographs demonstrated abundant tonofilaments in the cytoplasm.The karyotype showed a hyperdiploid feature with a main chromosome stem number ranged from 80 to 88.The culture was not contaminated by mycoplasma and had a distinct lactic acid dehydrogenase isozyme pattern.High expression level of p53(31.9%),bcl-2(89.3%) and Ki67(33.7%) proteins was detected by flow cytometry.The xenogeneic tumors were grown in nude mice with the histological structure of the original one. Conclusions The novel CS1213 cells have the characteristics of human cervical squamous cells and could be used as an appropriate cellular model system for studying tumor invasion and metastasis.

Objective To explore current status of health-related productivity loss and its risk factors among nurses.Methods Stanford presenteeism scale (SPS-6) and self-designed questionnaire were used to investigate current status of health-related productivity loss and its risk factors among 1122 nurses working in a tertiary hospital in Changchun city.Results Compared with hired nurses,age and work seniority of permanent nurses were significantly higher(Z =-19.49,-19.28 ;P ＜0.05).The average score of SPS-6 of all the participants was 20.05 ± 4.37.The score of SPS-6 of married nurses was significantly lower than other nurses (Z =-3.52,P ＜ 0.05) ; and the score of SPS-6 of nurses less than 30 years old was significantly higher than those above 30 years old (Z =-2.49,P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between the SPS-6 score of education degree and department.(Z =-1.37,x2 =0.58 ; P ＞0.05).The result of GLM showed that employment status and work seniority were independent risk factors of health-related productivity loss among nurses.The scores of SPS-6 of permanent nurses was significantly lower than hired nursed (x2 =4.48,P ＜ 0.05),and those who had worked for less than 3 years showed significantly higher score of SPS-6 than those who had worked longer (x2 =12.89,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Health-related productivity loss do exist among nurses.Improving health management may help to reduce this loss of productivity.
