Nursing intervention can give full play to the initiative of self-management behavior in accordance with patients' cultural background, so as to improve their quality of life.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is one of the major etiologies responsible for the acute, highly contagious disease in the digestive tract of pigs, especially neonatal piglets. Since PEDV was first identified in Europe in the late 1970s, it has resulted in significant economic losses in many Asian swine-raising countries, including China. Recently, reverse genetics techniques including targeted RNA recombination, bacteria artificial chromosome system and in vitro ligation have been successfully used to manipulate the genome of PEDV, which providing new strategies for the clear delineation of the functions of the viral proteins, the mechanisms behind PEDV pathogenesis and the design of novel vaccines against PEDV. Here, we review the progresses of different reverse genetics platforms developed for PEDV and their applications, covering the roles of trypsin in PEDV propagation, functions of S and ORF3 protein and the development of next generation PED vaccines, and the perspectives of reverse genetics for PEDV.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of formaldehyde inducing ovarian toxicity in female rats by observing the effect of formaldehyde on the expression of Fas and caspase-8 mRNA, and the activity of caspase-3 and caspase-8 of ovary tissues in female rats. METHODS: Forty female Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into a control group and 3 formaldehyde groups at different concentrations. The rats in the formaldehyde groups were intraperitoneally injected different doses of formaldehyde (20.0,2.0 and 0.2 mg/kg) continuously for 14 days.After 14 days, all rats were sacrificed and their ovaries were collected for detecting the expression of Fas and caspase-8 mRNA with RT-PCR, the protein expression of Fas with Western blot, and the activities of caspase-8 and caspase-3 with spectrophotometric method. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the expression of Fas mRNA and its protein and caspase-8 mRNA and the activity of caspase-8 and caspase-3 of ovary tissues in the rats treated with formaldehyde significantly increased with dose (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The increase of Fas gene expression and the activity of caspase-8 and caspase-3 may be the important mechanism of ovarian toxicity induced by formaldehyde in female rats.
