Dura mater is a tough collagen connective tissue attached to inner surface of skull and wrapped around brain.As a buffer bridge between brain tissue and skull,its physiological function and role in skull development and repair have always been a focus of research.Recent studies have found that dura mater not only directly participates in skull development during skull growth,but also secretes a variety of cytokines that control the development of central nervous system.There are abundant material exchange and cell communication between the two.This article reviews the role of dura in development and repair of skull,and provides clues for further discovery of the relevant mechanisms of dura in development and repair of skull.

Objective:To explore the application effect of massive open online course (MOOC) combined with peer mutual assistance in cardiopulmonary resuscitation teaching.Methods:A total of 140 students in the same class of Batch 2015 were divided into the experimental group and the control group. In the teaching of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the experimental group was based on the MOOC teaching platform, watched videos and topic tests before class, and used the peer mutual assistance in class. While the control group adopted traditional classroom teaching mode. The teaching effect of the two groups were evaluated by comparing the operation assessment scores and questionnaire survey of students' satisfaction with teaching. SPSS 22.0 was used for t-test and Chi-square test. Results:The operating assessment score of the experimental group was (82.20±2.31), and the operating assessment score of the control group was (75.80±1.72). The difference was statistically significant ( t=3.27, P<0.05). The questionnaire survey showed that the course satisfaction and learning motivation of the experimental group were better than those of the control group. In learning burden, the two groups had similar results ( P=0.739). Conclusion:MOOC combined with peer mutual assistance in cardiopulmonary resuscitation teaching can help students better master skills, improve students' course satisfaction and learning motivation, without increasing their learning burden.

Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a chronic non-specific digestive disease with abdominal pain， diarrhea， and blood and mucus in stool as the main clinical manifestations and inflammatory injury of colorectal mucosa and submucosa as the main pathological changes. With the change in living habits and dietary structure of people， the incidence and cancer morbidity in UC are rising rapidly all over the world， which has seriously reduced the quality of life and caused a huge social burden. Till now， the pathogenesis has not been elucidated. In western medicine， aminosalicylates， corticosteroids， and immunosuppressors are commonly used to relieve symptoms. However， the long-term application will lead to problems such as decreased efficacy and increased adverse reactions. There are more studies of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of UC by reducing the inflammatory response， alleviating oxidative stress， protecting the intestinal mucosal barrier， and regulating intestinal microecological imbalance by virtue of the advantages of integrated regulation based on multiple links， levels， and targets. In view of this， the present study reviewed the effect and mechanism of active ingredients of TCM， TCM extracts， TCM pairs， classic TCM compounds， and TCM combined with chemical agents in the treatment of UC based on relevant research articles in recent 10 years to provide references for seeking effective drugs.

Senescence of activated hepatic stellate cells (aHSCs) is a stable growth arrest that is implicated in liver fibrosis regression. Senescent cells often accompanied by a multi-faceted senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). But little is known about how alanine-serine-cysteine transporter type-2 (ASCT2), a high affinity glutamine transporter, affects HSC senescence and SASP during liver fibrosis. Here, we identified ASCT2 is mainly elevated in aHSCs and positively correlated with liver fibrosis in human and mouse fibrotic livers. We first discovered ASCT2 inhibition induced HSCs to senescence in vitro and in vivo. The proinflammatory SASP were restricted by ASCT2 inhibition at senescence initiation to prevent paracrine migration. Mechanically, ASCT2 was a direct target of glutaminolysis-dependent proinflammatory SASP, interfering IL-1α/NF-κB feedback loop via interacting with precursor IL-1α at Lys82. From a translational perspective, atractylenolide III is identified as ASCT2 inhibitor through directly bound to Asn230 of ASCT2. The presence of -OH group in atractylenolide III is suggested to be favorable for the inhibition of ASCT2. Importantly, atractylenolide III could be utilized to treat liver fibrosis mice. Taken together, ASCT2 controlled HSC senescence while modifying the proinflammatory SASP. Targeting ASCT2 by atractylenolide III could be a therapeutic candidate for liver fibrosis.

Objective:To establish the quality evaluation method of Astmgali Radix based on three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy. Methods:The three-dimensional fluorescence spectra of Astmgali Radix extract was measured by fluorescence spectrum analysis technology, and the characteristics of fluorescence components of three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum of Astmgali Radix were analyzed by parallel factor analysis. The three-dimensional fluorescence spectra of Astmgali Radix samples from 23 different places were measured for quality discriminant analysis. Results:After the optimization, the three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum of 80% ethanol extract of Astmgali Radix showed that three groups of characteristic excitation/emission (λex/λem) peak, which located at 305 nm/420 nm (Peak 1), 280 nm/315 nm (Peak 2) and 265 nm/475 nm (Peak 3), respectively. The results of parallel factor analysis showed that Peak 1 and Peak 3 both contained one isoflavones fluorescent component, and Peak 2 contained two amino acid fluorescent components. There were differences in the number of characteristic peaks and fluorescence intensity of three-dimensional fluorescence spectra of Astmgali Radix samples from different origins. Conclusion:The three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum could evaluate the consistency of Astmgali Radix from different places. The method is simple, fast, and efficient. This method is accurate, which could provide reference for the quality evaluation of Astmgali Radix.

Objective:To explore the methods to improve the professional core competencies of medical students in the standardized residency training.Methods:A total of 82 medical students who participated in the standardized residency training ("resident students" for short) in the same period were selected in this study, and the self-edited professional core competencies textbooks were used for regular theoretical study, and at the same time, clinical practice cases were collected for regular scenario reduction teaching. When the resident students entered the department and after 12 months of the standardized training, the professional core competencies training evaluation scale was used to evaluate and compare the scores of the resident students, and the value of the above-mentioned training model to improve the professional core competencies of the resident students was evaluated. SPSS 18.5 was performed for t test between groups. Results:After being trained by the above model, the selected students had significantly improved such competencies as communication, cooperation and problems solving ( P<0.05). Compared with the scores of resident students before and after the training, there was no significant difference in communication and cooperation with other students ( P>0.05), with low satisfactory communication with the leader ( P>0.05), but the problem-solving ability had been significantly improved ( P<0.05), while the score of which was low and it should be pay more attention to in the future training. Conclusion:In the process of standardized residency training, the application of the above-mentioned training model can significantly improve the professional core competencies of resident students, and at the same time, it's necessary to strengthen the cultivation of satisfactory communication with leaders and problem solving ability.
