Trauma is the leading cause of death for people under 40 years old in the world. At present, the rescue and treatment system of trauma patients in China is not yet well established, and the mortality of trauma patients is higher than those in the developed countries. Improving the treatment system is the key to reducing the trauma mortality. In order to innovate the service mode of trauma first aid, further promote the establishment of regional trauma first aid system, improve the ability of trauma treatment, reduce the mortality and disability rate of trauma patients in Jiangxi Province, recently Health Commission of Jiangxi Province and the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University have reached a consensus on the establishment of Jiangxi trauma first aid center. In order to provide reference for the construction of trauma treatment system, the author analyzes the following aspects including functional positioning, basic requirements, organization management, and evaluation of core indicators.

To investigate the postoperative anxiety and its relationship with life quality in patients with Ménière's diseases.
 Methods: A total of 68 patients with Ménière's disease, who received the treatment of endolymphatic sac decompression from 2010 to 2016, were enrolled. They finished two scales (the self-rating anxiety scale and the quality of life questionnaire for endolymphatic sac decompression of Ménière's disease) by snail mail. The patients were divided into different groups based on their preoperative course, postoperative follow-up time, clinic stage and quality of life after endolymphatic sac decompression surgery, and their anxiety was analyzed. In addition, 109 gender and age-matched patients with other diseases of otorhinolaryngology served as the control group, and their anxiety was also analyzed.
 Results: There was no statistical difference in the postoperative anxiety among the patients with preoperative course for less than 1 year, 1 to 5 years or more than 5 years (all P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the patients with different duration of follow-up (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the patients with the different clinic stages (all P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the patients with the improved life or non-improved life after surgery (P>0.05). The degree of the anxiety in the Ménière's group was more severe than that in the control group (P<0.01).
 Conclusion: It needs to keep in mind that a certain degree of postoperative anxiety still keeps in patients with Ménière's disease.

Objective To observe the influence of nursing intervention on heart function and emotion in elder patients with chronic heart failure(CHF)based on "Timing It Right".Methods A total of 100 elder patient with CHF in Nanyang City Center Hospital from January 2016 to January 2017 were recruited,and divided into control group and observation group by random number table method,with 50 cases in each group.The control group received routine care and follow-up,while the observation group received routine care and nursing intervention base on "Timing It Right" for 12 weeks.The heart function and emotion were compared between those two group at before and after nursing intervention by LVEF％,NT-proBNP,heart output and Chinese version of Brief Profile of Mood States(BPOMS).Results The patients' heart function and emotion of both groups improved after intervention.After intervention,the LVEF％,NT-proBNP and heart output of the observation group were(59.65±2.29)％,(249.21±58.79)ng/L and(5.72±1.10)L/min,the differences compared with the control group were statistically significant(t=-28.473,8.473,-5.505;P < 0.05).The total score of BPOMS of the control group and the observation group was(25.55±4.41)and(22.62±5.40)respectively(t=2.878,P<0.05).Conclusions Nursing intervention based on "Timing It Right" can improve patient's heart function and emotion in elderly patients with CHF,which has better effect then routine nursing intervention.

Objective To investigate the clinical and biochemical metabolic features of 12 patients with systemic primary carnitine deficiency(CDSP) and to identify the SLC22A5 gene mutation types of the disease. Method The clinical and biochemical data were collected by retrospective analysis. DNA direct sequencing and multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification(MLPA)were applied for SLC22A5 gene analysis. Result Among 12 patients with CDSP, 3 cases had evident infection factors, 6 cases with convulsions, 5 cases manifested liver hypertrophy, 8 cases with hyperammonemia, and 9 cases showed myocardial damage. All CDSP patients were detected biallelic pathogenic mutation in SLC22A5 gene by direct sequencing. The gene types include IVS2+1G>T, c.3G>T(p.Met1Ile), c.760C>T(p.Arg254X), c.1400C>G(p.Ser467Cys), c.844dupc(p.Arg282fs), c.338G>A(p.Cys113Tyr), c.51C>G(p.Phe17Leu), c.659A>T(p.Glu220Val), and c.1365dupC(p.Thr456fs). c.659A>T(p.Glu220Val) and c.1365dupC(p.Thr456fs)are novel mutations. One female patient was maternal CDSP, her child had abnormal newborn screening. The allele frequency of c.760C>T(p.Arg254X) and c.1400C>G(p.Ser467Cys) were 37.5%(9/24)and 29.2%(7/24)respectively. The MLPA test results of all patients were negative. Conclusion The clinical manifestations are complex and various in patients with CDSP. Point and small InDel(insertions/deletions)mutation constitute the major alteration in SLC22A5 gene. c.1400C>G(p.Ser467Cys) might be another prevalence mutation type in Chinese CDSP patient.

BACKGROUNDNicotine may improve schizophrenia patient's cognitive deficit symptoms. This study was to explore the chronic effects of smoking on prepulse inhibition of the startle reflex (PPI) and P50 in the patients with first-episode schizophrenia (FES).

METHODSThe event-related potentials (ERP) recording and analysis instrument made by Brain Products, Germany, was used to detect PPI and P50 in 49 male FES patients (FES group, n = 21 for smokers and n = 28 for non-smokers) and 43 normal male controls (control group, n = 19 for smokers and n = 24 for non-smokers).

RESULTSCompared with normal controls, the FES group had prolonged PPI latency when elicited by single stronger stimulus (P < 0.05); the FES group had prolonged PPI latency and increased PPI amplitude (P < 0.05, 0.01) when elicited by weak and strong stimuli. The FES group had lower PPI inhibition rate than normal controls (P < 0.05). Compared with normal controls, the FES group had increased P50-S2 amplitude and increased amplitude ratio S2/S1 (both P <0.05). In the control group, the smokers had a tendency of increase in P50-S2 amplitude (P > 0.05) and shorter P50-S2 latency (P < 0.05) than the non-smokers. The smokers had higher PPI amplitude than the non-smokers (P < 0.05). In the FES group, the smokers had higher P50-S1 amplitude, shorter P50-S2 latency, and higher amplitude ratio S2/S1 than the non-smokers (P < 0.05, 0.01). The smokers had higher PPI amplitude than the non-smokers (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThere is obvious PPI and P50 deficits in schizophrenic patients. However, these deficits are relatively preserved in the smokers compared with the non-smokers, which suggests that long-term smoking might partially improve the sensory gating in schizophrenic patients. Whether this conclusion can be deduced to female patients requires further follow-ups.

BACKGROUNDSleep deprivation (SD) has been used in treatment of depression disorder, and could effectively improve the patients' depressive symptoms.The aim of the study was to explore the effects of SD on electroencephalographic (EEG) and executive function changes in patients with depression.

METHODSEighteen depression patients (DPs) and 21 healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled in the present study. The whole night polysomnography (PSG) was recorded by Neurofax-1518K (Nihon Kohden, Japan) system before and after 36 hours of SD. The level of subjects' depression state was assessed by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and the executive function was assessed by Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST).

RESULTSSignificantly decreased sleep latency (SL; before SD: (31.8 ± 11.1) minutes, after SD: (8.8 ± 5.2) minutes, P < 0.01) and REM sleep latency (RL; before SD: (79.8 ± 13.5) minutes, after SD: (62.9 ± 10.2) minutes, P < 0.01) were found after SD PSG in depression patients. Decreased Stage 1 (S1; before SD: (11.7 ± 2.9)%, after SD: (7.3 ± 1.1)%, P < 0.01) and Stage 2 (S2, before SD: (53.8 ± 15.5)%, after SD: (42.3 ± 14.7)%, P < 0.05) of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, and increased Stage 3 (S3, before SD: (11.8 ± 5.5)%, after SD: (23.6 ± 5.8)%, P < 0.01) and Stage 4 (S4, before SD: (8.8 ± 3.3)%, after SD: (27.4 ± 4.8)%, P < 0.01) NREM sleep were also found. After SD, the depression level in patients decreased from 6.7 ± 2.1 to 2.9 ± 0.7 (P < 0.01). In WCST, the patients showed significantly decreased Response errors (Re, before SD: 22.3 ± 2.4, after SD: 18.3 ± 2.7, P < 0.01) and Response preservative errors (Rpe, before SD: 11.6 ± 3.6, after SD: 9.3 ± 2.9, P < 0.05). Depression patients' RE (t = 2.17, P < 0.05) and Rpe (t = 2.96, P < 0.01) also decreased significantly compared to healthy controls.

CONCLUSIONSD can improve depression symptom and executive function in depression patients.

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common intrahepatic primary liver tumor after hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Epidemiological study suggests a strong correlation between HBV infection and ICC development.This review focused on the potential mechanisms of HBV-induced ICC and gives a primary summary of suggested hypothesis,which included:(1) HBV infection of liver stem/progenitor cells will indirectly lead to HBV infection of intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells and lead to the development of ICC; (2) the changed microenvironment of intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells by HBV infection eventually results in carcinogenesis ; (3) the HBV infection of hepatic sten/progenitor cell can transform into tumor-like stem cells and ultimately differentiate into ICC-like tumor cells.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the inhibitive effect of matrine modification X on the growth of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2 cell xenografts in nude mice. METHOD: Tumor model was established by subcutaneous inoculation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell CNE2 into nude mice, which was used to evaluate the antitumor effect of matrine modification X in vivo. The expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase3 were detected by real-time PCR and western blot. RESULT: The growth of xenografts in nude mice was significantly suppressed after application of matrine modification X in a dose-dependent manner. The inhibition rates were 32.55% and 44.89% when treated at medium and high dose respectively. Real-time fluorescence quantitative-PCR and Western Blot results showed that the expression of Bax and Caspase3 increased, while the expression of Bcl-2 decreased in a dose-dependent manner. The change of high dose group was obvious, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Matrine modification X could significantly inhibit the growth of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE2 cell xenografts in nude mice, probably by inducing the apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells, and the possible mechanism is related to regulating the expression level of Bax/Bcl-2 and Casepase3.

BACKGROUND: Abnormal lipid metabolism is one of the risk factors in patients with ischemic cerebral disorders, and is correlated with the changes of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase activity.OBJECTIVE: To observe the relationship between the changes of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase activity and lipid content in red blood cell membrane.DESIGN: A case-control study(experimental group with control as standard level).SETTING: Department of clinical laboratory, emergency room and department of neurology of a hospital affiliated to a medical college of a university.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 105 inpatients and outpatients with cerebrovascular diseases were selected from the Department of Neurology, Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University, from March 2002 to December 2003. They accorded with the Diagnostic Criteria set at the Second National Conference on Cerebrovascular Diseases. A total of 42 patients with cerebral arteriosclerosis and 63 patients with cerebral infarction were selected as patients group consisting of 67 males and 38 females. Another 65 healthy people receiving physical examination in the hospital, 36 males and 29 females, were selected as control group.METHODS: Venous blood of 8 mL was drawn from the participants on an empty stomach. We assayed the activity of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase,high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol,apolipoprotein A1 and apolipoprotein B. Red blood cell membrane cholesterol was determined by phthalyl aldehyde-acetometry and red blood cell membrane phospholipid was determined by chemical quantitative analysis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase activity and lipid content in red blood cell membrane in patients group and control group.RESULTS: According to intention analysis, all the 105 patients in patients group and 65 patients in control group entered the results analysis. Activity of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase: Activity changes in cerebral arteriosclerosis group and cerebral infarction group were obvious lower than those in control group[(2.14±0.72) kat/L, (2.06±0.80) kat/L, and(2.61± 0. 74) kat/L, P ＜ 0.01 ] . Level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1: The level in cerebral arteriosclerosis group and cerebral infarction group was obvious lower than that in control group[ (1.32±0.33) mmol/L, (1.37±0.33) g/L, (1.28±0.33) mmol/L; (1.27±0.31) g/L, (1.60±0.43) mmol/L, (1.60±0.43) g/L, t=2.72 to 5.01, P ＜ 0.01 ]. Content of low density lipoprotein cholesterol and red blood cell membrane-cholesterol: The content in cerebral arteriosclerosis group and cerebral infarction group was obvious higher than that in control group [ (2.94 ± 0. 82) mmol/L, (0.63 ±0.05) mmol/g, (3.02 ±0.79) mmol/L;(0.60 ±0.07) mmol/g, (2.56 ±0. 58) mmol/L, (0.57 ±0.05) mmol/g, P ＜ 0. 01 ] . Moreover, the activity of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase was positively correlated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1(r=0.247, P ＜0.05; r=0.303, P ＜0.01), but was negatively correlated with low density lipoprotein cholesterol and red blood cell membrane cholesterol(r= -0.212, P ＜0.05;r= -0.346, P ＜0.01).CONCLUSION: In patients with ischemic cerebral disorders, the major change of plasma lipid is the decrease of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase,but it is not secondary to cerebral infarction. The activity of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase is positively correlated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1, but is negatively correlated with low density lipoprotein cholesterol and red blood cell membrane cholesterol.
