Objective:To investigate the level of self-compassion among residents and related influencing factors, and to help them improve self-compassion ability, achieve learning goals, and increase the degree of satisfaction with learning.Methods:In July 2022, the random sampling method was used to select 330 residents (postgraduate students majoring in clinical medicine after national unified recruitment) from two grade A tertiary hospitals in Shenyang of Liaoning province in China, and Self-Compassion Scale was used for investigation. SPSS software was used to analyze the degree of satisfaction with industry, learning pressure, the balance between learning and life, and occupational burnout among residents and their association with the level of self-compassion through the chi-square test, the one-way analysis of variance, and the multilevel regression analysis.Results:The residents had a mean self-compassion score of (40.90±6.81), and the residents of the second grade had a lower level of self-compassion than those of the other grades. Major satisfaction and balance between learning and life were positively correlated with self-compassion, and occupational burnout was negatively correlated with self-compassion.Conclusion:There is a relatively insufficient level of self-compassion among residents, and improving self-compassion level may effectively regulate occupational burnout, professional satisfaction, and the balance between learning and life, thereby helping to improve learning and mental health.

OBJECTIVE：To discuss the inhibitory effect of lanthanum chloride on the calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells（VSMCs）induced by high phosphorus and its mechanism. METHODS ：On the basis of screening the action concentration and time of lanthanum chloride by MTT method ，human VSMCs were divided into control group （1 mmol/L phosphorus solution ）， lanthanum chloride high concentration control group （1 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 60 μmol/L lanthanum chloride），model group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution ），sodium chloride group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 180 μmol/L sodium chloride），nuclear factor κB（NF-κB）signaling pathway agonist+lanthanum chloride group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide+ 60 μmol/L lanthanum chloride），positive control group （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 100 μmol/L sodium pyrophosphate），and lanthanum chloride low ，medium，and high concentration groups （3 mmol/L phosphorus solution+ 15，30，60 μmol/L lanthanum chloride）. Alizarin red S staining and Von Kossa staining were used to detect cell calcification in each group after treated with phosphorus solution for 6 d and relevant medicine for 2 d. Western blot assay was used to detect the protein expression of TNF-α receptor associated protein 6（TRAF6），nuclear factor κB inhibitor protein α（IκBα），NF-κB p65，bone morphogenetic protein 2 （BMP-2），smooth muscle 22 α（SM22α）and Runt related transcription factor 2（Runx2）. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect mRNA expression of TRAF 6，IκBα，BMP-2，SM22α and Runx2. RESULTS ： Compared with control group ，no cell calcification was observed in the lanthanum chloride high concentration control group ，while obvious cell calcification and significant increase of OD value were observed in model group and sodium chloride group （P＜ 0.01）；protein and mRNA expression of TRAF 6 and BMP- 2 in cytoplasm as well as mRNA expression of Runx 2，protein expression of NF-κB p65 and Runx 2 in nucleus were significantly increased （P＜0.01）；protein and mRNA expression of IκBα and SM22α as well as protein expression of NF-κB p65 in cytoplasm were significantly decreased （P＜0.01）. Compared with model group，cell calcification was significantly improved in lanthanum chloride groups and positive control group ，while OD values were significantly reduced ；the expression levels of the above-mentioned protein and mRNA were reversed to varying degrees （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with lanthanum chloride high concentration group ，obvious cell calcification was observed in NF-κB signaling pathway agonist + lanthanum chloride group ，and OD value was significantly increased ；the above indexes were significantly reversed in cytoplasm and nucleus （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：Lanthanum chloride can inhibit the calcification of VSMCs induced by high phosphorus ，and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway activation.

Objective To investigate efficiency of centipede extracts on apoptosis induction, proliferation inhibition to Human A549 cell line and growth suppression of subcutaneous transplanted sarcoma in nude mice. Methods Centipede extracts prepared by enzymolysis and acetone precipitation methods were used to treat human lung cancer A549 cell line. Proliferation inhibition was evaluated by MTT assay and half inhibit concentration (IC50) was calculated. Cell morphological change and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry and Hoechst stain. The subcutaneous transplanted sarcoma models were prepared with nude mice and randomly divided into model group, control group and centipede extracts group, with 10 mice in each group. Changes of tumor volume, quality and anti-tumor rate were observed.Results In vitro experiment, proliferation of A549 cells was inhibited with dose-dependency and IC50 value was 0.603 mg/mL. The G0/G1 phase of cells was down regulated and G2/M and S phase cells were up-regulated. The apoptotic character cells were been found by Hoechst stain. In vivo experiment, the tumor weight and volume decreased significantly compared with model control group, with statistical significance (P<0.01).Conclusion The centipede extracts shows dose-dependent anti-proliferative effect on A549 cells, which can induce apoptosis by arresting A549 cells at G2/M phase and suppressing growth of subcutaneous transplanted sarcoma of lung cancer in nude mice.

Objective To investigate the radiosensitization effects of the combination treatment of clioquinol (CQ) and zinc on human cervical cell line HeLa in vitro.Methods Cells were divided into the 4 groups:controls,drug,radiation,and combined drug and radiation group.Cytotoxic effect of CQ and zinc on cell viability was determined by CCK-8 assay.Radiosensitization effect of CQ and zinc on HeLa cells was detected by colongenic assay,and the single-hit multi-target model was used to stimulate the doseresponse curve of survival and to calculate radiosensitization parameters.The cell cycle and apoptosis of HeLa cells were analyzed with flow cytometry.Luciferase reporter assay was used to study NF-κB activity of HeLa cells.Results The combination of CQ and zinc inhibited cell growth in a dose-dependent manner (F =188.00,P ＜ 0.01).The mean lethal dose was 3.16 and 2.04 Gy for radiation group and combined drug and radiation group,respectively,and hence the SER was 1.55.Compared with the radiation group,the ratio of G2-phase cells in the combined drug and radiation group decreased(t =10.39,P ＜ 0.05),the apoptosis rate increased at 24 h post-irradiation (t =5.64,P ＜ 0.01),and the NF-κB activity decreased (t =21.42,P ＜ 0.05).Compared to the control group,the NF-κB activity increased in the radiation group(t=6.23,P＜0.05),but decreased in the drug group(t =12.48,P＜0.05).Conclusions The combination of CQ and zinc could increase the radiosensitivity of HeLa cells by decreasing the ratio of G2-phase cells,increasing apoptosis and the inhibiting of NF-κB activity.

The development of primary or acquired taxane resistance inevitably becomes to be the main problem.Ixabepilone is effective in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients including those heavily pretreated or resistant to taxanes.Eribulin has been used for the treatment of MBC patients who have received at least two prior chemotherapy regimens.New microtubule-targeting agents are promising to be effective options for patients progressing after standard taxane-containing chemotherapy.

A magnetic extraction sorbent based on Fe3 O4@poly ( methacrylic acid-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) ( Fe3 O4@MAED ) was synthesized using methacrylic acid and ethylene dimethacrylate as monomer and cross-linker, respectively. The magnetic sorbent was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and transmission electron microscopy. At the same time, the Fe3 O4@MAED was used to extract four benzoylurea pesticides in water and juice samples under magnetic dispersive solid phase microextraction ( MDSPME ) format. To obtain the optimal extraction conditions, several parameters, including the amount of sorbent, desorption solvent, extraction and desorption time, pH value, and ionic strength in sample matrix were investigated. Based on this, a fast, simple and sensitive method for the determination of benzoylurea pesticides in water and juice samples was developed by the combination of MDSPME with HPLC equipped with diode array detector. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the developed method possessed expected linear dynamic ranges, coefficients of correlation ( R2>0. 99 ) and sensitivity. The limits of detection (S/N=3) for target analytes were 0. 10-0. 19 μg/L in water and 0. 12-0. 30 μg/L in juice, respectively. The RSDs for intra-day were less than 7% and inter-day RSDs were less than 11%. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of benzoylurea pesticides residues in water and juice samples and the recoveries of spiked target compounds were in the range of 69. 4%-118. 0%. The results demonstrated that the Fe3 O4@ MAED could extract benzoylurea pesticides effectively through multi-interactions including hydrophobic, hydrogen-bond and ion-exchange interactions between sorbent and analytes.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of the non-language-based cognitive function in patients with aphasia after stroke.Methods Thirty patients of the first infarction with aphasia and thirty stroke patients without aphasia were recruited.The aphasia deficits in patients were evaluated using the Aphasia Battery of Chinese(ABC).The non-language-based cognitive assessment scale (NLCA) was applied to analyze the cognitive function in the two groups.The stroke aphasic depression questionnaire hospital version (SADQ-H)was applied to analyze the depression in the two groups.Results The score in NLCA of the aphasia group was significantly lower than that of control group((50.01± 14.01)vs(66.13±5.95),P＜0.01).There was high correlation between the total and sub-scores of NLCA and ABC in both groups(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).The score in SADQ-H of the aphasia group was significantly higher than that of control group((21.83±7.37)vs(16.13±5.84),P＜0.01).The total score for the aphasia patients shown by the SADQ-H was negatively related with the total score of the NLCA(r=-0.468,P＜0.05).Conclusion There is non-language-based cognitive dysfunction in patients with aphasia after stroke,and the severity of depression affects cognitive function.

Objective To evaluate the value of 99Tcm-MDP uptake by left femoral neck for diagnosing osteopomsis.Methods A total of 58 cases (23 males,35 females,mean age:(66.15±8.45) years) with spondyloarthmpathies from May to December of 2012 were selected.Serum concentrations of type Ⅰ collagen telopeptide (sCTX-1) and bone ALP (BALP) were determined.All patients underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to detect bone mineral density (BMD).According to the T scores,patients were divided into 2 groups:normal group (NG) (T＞-1.0) and osteoporosis group (OG) (T≤-2.5).99TcmMDP bone scan was further performed.The average radioactive ratio of the left femoral neck to the medial soft tissue of left femur (T/N) was measured.Data differences between the 2 groups were compared by twosample t test and Pearson correlation analysis.Results According to BMD,13 patients (7 males,6 females) were included in NG and 28 patients (10 males,18 females) were included in OG.The mean ages of OG and NG were significantly different ((68.82± 10.41) years vs (62.46± 11.77) years; t =3.560,P＜0.05).The BMD of left femoral neck in OG was significantly lower than that in NG ((0.67±0.08) g/cm2 vs (0.91±0.10) g/cm2 ; t=9.917,P＜0.01).Although BALP level of OG was significantly higher than that of NG ((35.92±11.58) U/L vs (22.38±6.34) U/L; t=-3.397,P＜0.05),no significant difference was observed on sCTX-1 between the 2 groups (t=-0.463,P＞0.05).T/N ratio of OG (11.63±6.22) was higher than that of NG (9.74±4.44) (t =-3.027,P＜ 0.05).There were significant correlations between the T/N ratio of the left femoral neck and the sCTX-1 and BALP concentrations (r=0.376,0.483,both P＜0.01).No correlations between the T/N ratio of the left femoral neck and age,BMI and BMD were observed (r=-2.031,-0.017,0.134,all P＞0.05).Conclusion The uptake ratio of the left femoral neck in 99Tcm-MDP bone scan could evaluate the metabolism of bone,and it is useful for the early diagnosis of osteoporosis.
