Objective To investigate whether interleukin-37(IL-37)affects macrophage M1 polarization via nu-cleotide oligomerization of structural domain receptor protein 1(NOD1)/nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)in plasma cell mastitis.Methods A total of 15 patients with plasma cell mastitis were recruited according to the collection standard as inflammatory breast tissue and normal breast tissue with a distance of ≥ 3 cm from the edge of the in-flammatory breast tissue.QPCR was performed to detect NOD1 and IL-3.Phorbol ester(PE)was used to induce THP-1 cells to differentiate into resting macrophages(M0).Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)combined with interferon(IFN-γ)was used to induce the polarization of M0 macrophages towards the M1 phenotype.NOD1 lentiviral RNA interference or over-expression vectors were constructed to regulate the expression of NOD1 in M1 macrophages.M0 macrophages were pretreated with IL-37 recombinant protein and then incubated with LPS and IFN-γ for induction.The expression of NOD1,IL-37,M1 markers(IL-6 and iNOS)and M2 markers(IL-10 and Arg-1)was quantified by qPCR.Western blot was employed to assess the protein level of NOD1,NF-κB p65,and p-NF-κB p65.Co-immunoprecipitation was used to detect the interaction between NOD1 and IL-37.Results Up-regulation of NOD1 and down-regulation of IL-37 as were found in inflammatory breast tissues(P＜0.05).Compared to M0 cells,M1 cells showed up-regulated NOD1 and M1 markers and the elevated phosphorylated NF-κB p65 but the down-regulated IL-37(P＜0.05).In M1 macrophages,both NF-κB inhibitor and NOD1 knockdown led to the down-regulation of NOD1 and M1 markers and caused a decrease in the phosphorylated NF-κB p65(P＜0.05).IL-37 recombinant protein decreased phosphorylation of NOD1,M1 marker and NF-κB p65,which was reversed by over-expression of NOD1.IL-37 may interact with NOD1(P＜0.05).Conclusions IL-37 may inhibit M1 polarization in macrophages by down-regulating NOD1/NF-κB pathway thereby preventing plasma cell mastitis progression.

During the treatment of neurosurgical patients, the changing of intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is the main monitoring objects, while most of the clinical equipment are wireline. With the rapid development of transducer and wireless network, miniaturization, micromation and wireless transmission become one of the research hotspots. This paper designed a wireless ICP monitoring system based on ZigBee technology, which can continuously measure the patient's intracranial pressure and temperature, and send monitoring data of patients of different ward to nurse station through the wireless network, and save it. Then we can inquiry the intracranial pressure and temperature using the intracranial pressure monitoring and management software we designed. The wireless system can be instaled in the hospital very conveniently, which can reduce the work intensity of medical staff. The system is very useful in clinical work.

A system was designed in this paper, which can be used in clinical cerebral oxygen data acquisition and display, it is based on STM32 and NIRS(Near-infrared Spectroscopy). First of all, this paper introduced the basic principle of SaO2 detection, and system scheme. Next, it illustrated the hardware system which is composed of the modules of LED, light source driver, photoelectric detection, and the signal processing. Then, the software system based on uC/OS-Ⅲ of the system was presented. At last, the feasibility and effectiveness of the system were verified by forearm occlusion and 3-D TV experiment. This system is noninvasive, small-volume, mobile- convenient, easy to use and can storage data.
