Objective To observe the correlations of image manifestations of organ damage and clinical characteristics of heat stroke.Methods Totally 46 patients with heat stroke were retrospectively enrolled.Based on the presence or absence of image manifestations of heat stroke related organ damage on head MRI and chest-abdominal CT and combined with sequential organ failure assessment(SOFA),the patients were divided into organ damage positive group(positive A,images showed clear manifeatations of organ damage and the corresponding SOFA≥2)and organ damage negative group(negative B,images showed no obvious organ damage or the corresponding SOFA＜2).Clinical data,laboratory indicators and treatment outcomes were compared between groups.Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were used to explore the correlations of image manifestations of organ damage and clinical characteristics of heat stroke.Results Among 46 cases,26 were classified as positive group A and 20 as negative group.There were significant differences of patients' age,gender,Glasgow coma scale(GCS)and heart rate at admission,thrombin time,D-dimer,lactate dehydrogenase,partial pressure of carbon dioxide,lactic acid,myoglobin,platelet count(PLC),interleukin-6 and serum creatinine before treatment,as well as time of hospital stay and post-treatment outcomes between groups(all P＜0.05).GCS score,PLC levels and time of hospital stay of heat stroke patients were all correlated with image manifeations of organ damage(OR=0.592,0.729,1.532,all P＜0.05),among which GCS score and time of hospital stay were independently associated with image manifeations of organ damage(OR=0.607,1.448,both P＜0.05).Conclusion Image manifeations of organ damage was correlated with GCS score and time of hospital stay in patients with heat stroke.

Objective:To explore the effect and mechanism of USP7 on immune and inflammatory response of EV71 infection.Methods:THP-1 cells were induced to differentiate into t-Mφ cells by PMA,cells were treated by targeted USP7 inhibitor P22077,and divided into DMSO control group and P22077 experimental group,and infected with EV71.ELISA was used to detect supernatant concentration of IL-6,CCL3,TNF-α of cells separately.RT-qPCR was used to detect RNA expression of EV71-VP1,plaque test was used to detect virus titer in cell supernatant.Western blot was used to detect expressions and phosphorylation of molecules related to innate immune signaling pathway.Full-length plasmid Myc-USP7 and Flag-MDA5 were constructed and transfected into HEK293T cells,and Co-IP was used to detect external interaction between USP7 and MDA5 with Myc antibody and Flag antibody,respectively.Infected t-Mφ cells with EV71,and Co-IP detection of their interaction by USP7 and MDA5 antibodies,respectively.t-Mφ cells of DMSO control group and P22077 experimental group were infected with EV71,CHX test was used to detect expression of MDA5 and downstream related molecules.Transfected Flag-MDA5,Myc-USP7,HA-Ub or HA-K48 plasmids,Co-IP detection of ubiquitination and ubiquitination types of MDA5 regulated by USP7 with Flag antibody.Co-IP detection of MDA5 ubiquitination types regulated by USP7 in t-Mφ cells by using MDA5 antibodies.Results:After infected with EV71 and inhibited of USP7,mRNA and protein expres-sions of IL-6,CCL3 and TNF-α were decreased(P<0.05),while EV71 replication(P<0.05),and titer increased;expression of MDA5,and activation of p-IKKα/β,p-IκBα and p-p65 in innate immunity signal pathway decreased.Interaction between USP7 and MDA5 could inhibit MDA5 degradation by inhibiting K48 ubiquitination of MDA5.Conclusion:USP7 stabilizes MDA5 expression by inhibiting K48 ubiquitination of MDA5,thereby positively regulating EV71 infection immunity and inflammatory response.

Objective To explore the role and potential mechanisms of all-trans retinoic acid(ATRA)on activation and oxidative stress of hepatic stellate cell(HSC).Methods Platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF-bb,10 ng/ml)was applied to induce the activation of HSCs,which was then treated with ATRA at a dosage of 5 μmol/L for 48 h.The effects of ATRA on HSC activation were evaluated by detecting changes in cell growth viability and phenotypic marker expression.The effects of ATRA on HSC oxidative stress were evaluated by detecting changes in intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS),reduced glutathione(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA),and the expression of antioxidant genes.The effects of ATRA on HSC autophagic activity were evaluated by detecting changes in autophagy marker expression and autophagic flow.Results Compared with the PDGF-bb group,the cell viability was significantly reduced in ATRA-treated HSCs(P＜0.01),as well as the expression of α-SMA and Collagen I.The intracellular levels of ROS and MDA were significantly reduced in ATRA-treated HSCs(P＜0.01),whereas the GSH level was significantly increased(P＜0.01).The expression levels of antioxidant genes(NRF2,HO-1,and ATF4),were significantly higher in ATRA-treated HSCs than those in the normal ones under PDGF-bb condition(P＜0.01).Meanwhile,the expression of autophagy markers Beclin 1 and LC3 Ⅱ/I,and signal of autophagy flow in ATRA-treated HSCs were found to be significantly reduced(P＜0.01).Conclusion ATRA significantly inhibited PDGF-bb-induced HSC activation and reduced the level of oxidative stress and autophagic activity of HSCs,which had potential applications in the prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis.

Objective To observe the effect of application of Lamaze childbirth method in childbirth. Methods The observation group(110 cases)was trained by Lamaze childbirth method in late pregnancy period. The control group (110 cases) was not trained by Lamase childbirth method in antepartum period, and were given regular observation and nursing. Mastering of natural childbirth knowledge, pain intensity, childbirth time, mode of delivery and amount of bleeding post- childbirth 2h were observed in the two groups. Results The observation group mastered more natural birth knowledge than the control group, childbirth pain was obviously reduced, natural birth rate was higher than the control group, the first and second labor time was shorter than the control group, the amount of bleeding was obviously less than the control group 2 hours post childbirth. Conclusions Pregnant women need Lamaze childbirth method training before childbirth and instruction of maternity nurses. These may relieve pain, shorten childbirth time and reduce amount of bleeding post childbirth by application of Lamaze childbirth method.
