OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of catalpol on H2O2-induced osteoblast injury and its mechanism. METHODS The osteoblasts MC3T3-E1 were separated into control group， model group， empty group （transfected with empty plasmid）， catalpol group （100 μmol/L）， catalpol+forkhead box O3 （FoxO3） overexpression group （100 μmol/L catalpol+ transfected with FoxO3 overexpression plasmid）. After catalpol treatment and transfection， except for control group， other groups were induced with H2O2 to establish osteoblast oxidative stress model. The cell viability， apoptotic rate， alkaline phosphatase （ALP） activity， optical density （OD） value of calcium nodule， mean fluorescence intensity （MFI） of reactive oxygen species （ROS）， antioxidant enzyme activity [superoxide dismutase （SOD）， catalase （CAT）]， the levels of inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 （IL-6）， IL-1β]， and the expressions of FoxO3/Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway-related proteins were detected in each group. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the cell viability， ALP activity， OD value of calcium nodule， activities of antioxidant enzyme， and the protein expressions of Wnt and β-catenin were decreased significantly in the model group， while apoptotic rate， MFI levels of ROS， inflammatory factor levels and the protein expression of FoxO3 were all increased significantly （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， above indicators of the empty group had no significant change （P＞0.05）， while those of catalpol group were reversed significantly （P＜0.05）. Compared with the catalpol group， the reversal effect of the changes in the above indicators was significantly weakened in the catalpol+FoxO3 overexpression group cells （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Catalpol can activate Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway by down-regulating FoxO3， thereby inhibiting H2O2-induced MC3T3-E1 oxidative stress and inflammation reaction， enhancing cell viability and osteogenic differentiation activity， and alleviating apoptosis injury.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of discectomy combined with transpedicular dynamic stabilization and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in treating single-level lumbar disc herniation.Methods:From November 2012 to November 2015, a total of 96 patients with single-level lumbar disc herniation (disc height decreased more than 1/3, the width of the basilar part of the herniated disc >6 mm, massive disc herniation or Modic type I endplate changes) treated by discectomy combined with Dynesys dynamic stabilization (Dynesys group, n=48) or TLIF (fusion group, n=48) were enrolled. Clinical assessments included operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, MacNab score, visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) and rate of complications. Radiographs were evaluated for lumbar mobility, intervertebral height, etc. Results:A total of 86 patients were included in the final analysis (44 in Dynesys group and 42 in fusion group) and were evaluated after 5 years follow-up. The operation duration of Dynesys group (159.61±37.29 min) was less than that of the fusion group (177.42±39.90 min) significantly ( t=2.140, P=0.035). Intraoperative blood loss in Dynesys group (151.78±50.88 ml) was less than that in fusion group (197.74±76.55 ml) with significant difference ( t=3.293, P=0.001). At 5 years follow-up, there were 2 cases with screw loosening and 5 cases with adjacent segmental degeneration in Dynesys group without symptom. In fusion group, there were 12 cases with adjacent segmental degeneration and two of them with symptom. There were significant differences in the incidence of adjacent segment degeneration between the two groups ( χ2=4.012, P=0.045). According to the MacNab criteria, excellent or good cases accounted for 95% in Dynesys group and 93% in fusion group without significant differences ( Z=0.425, P=0.671). VAS back, VAS leg and ODI scores were improved significantly in both groups after 2 years and 5 years ( P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences between the two groups ( P<0.05). The activity of the surgical segment was 4.59°±0.48° in Dynesys group and 1.00°±0.42° in fusion group at 5 years after surgery. The height of intervertebral space in Dynesys group decreased from 11.19±2.07 mm before surgery to 9.98±2.02 mm at 2 years after surgery and to 9.86±1.64 mm at 5 years after surgery ( F=6.462, P=0.002). However, there was no statistically significant difference between the 2 and 5 years follow-up ( q=0.415, P>0.05). At 5 years after surgery, the activity of the first proximal segment in the two groups was 9.74°±3.29° and 11.69°±3.89°, respectively ( t=2.514, P=0.014). Conclusion:Both discectomy combined with dynamic stabilization and TLIF can achieve satisfied clinical effects in treating single-level lumbar disc herniation. Dynamic stabilization preserves the intervertebral activity of surgical segments and results in a lower incidence of adjacent segment degeneration compared with that in fusion surgery. Furthermore, discectomy combined with dynamic stabilization is a less invasive intervention with shorter operation duration and less blood loss compared with TLIF.

The current document is based on a consensus reached by a panel of experts from the Chinese Society of Allergy and the Chinese Society of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Rhinology Group. Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) affects approximately 8% of Chinese adults. The inflammatory and remodeling mechanisms of CRS in the Chinese population differ from those observed in the populations of European descent. Recently, precision medicine has been used to treat inflammation by targeting key biomarkers that are involved in the process. However, there are no CRS guidelines or a consensus available from China that can be shared with the international academia. The guidelines presented in this paper cover the epidemiology, economic burden, genetics and epigenetics, mechanisms, phenotypes and endotypes, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, management, and the current status of CRS in China. These guidelines—with a focus on China—will improve the abilities of clinical and medical staff during the treatment of CRS. Additionally, they will help international agencies in improving the verification of CRS endotypes, mapping of eosinophilic shifts, the identification of suitable biomarkers for endotyping, and predicting responses to therapies. In conclusion, these guidelines will help select therapies, such as pharmacotherapy, surgical approaches and innovative biotherapeutics, which are tailored to each of the individual CRS endotypes.

Objective? To investigate the status of professional identity,job burnout and organizational affective commitment of dental clinic nurses and analyze their correlation. Methods? Cross-sectional study was carry out on 275 dental clinic nurses from 14 Class Ⅲ hospitals in Beijing, as measured by Professional Identity Scale, the Revised Edition of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey and the Affective Commitment Scale(ACS). The statistical analysis performed by SPSS 24.0 and Amos 21.0 software. Results? The score of Professional Identity Scale of 237 dental clinic nurses was(121.34±20.34), moreover the nurse who working in general hospitals exhibited higher score than in dental-specialized hospitals,the difference was statistically significan(t P=0.041). The score of the Revised Edition of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey of 237 dental clinic nurses was (1.96±1.02),the average score of entries of ACS was (4.07±0.79). The results of the analysis showed that the professional identity scores of nurses with different working years were statistically different (P＜0.05). The scores of nurses with different working years, academic qualifications and professional titles were statistically different on Job burnout (P＜0.05). Moderate correlations were found among the scores of professional identity, job burnout and organizational affective commitment (P＜0.001), while organizational affective commitment had an intermediate effect between professional identity and job burnout, accounting for 31.5% of total effects. Conclusions? The status of professional identity and organizational affective commitment of dental clinic nurses in tertiary hospitals is at moderate-to-high level, and the status of job burnout in most of them is at low-to-moderate level. Moderate correlations are found among them, while organizational affective commitment plays an intermediate role between professional identity and job burnout. In order to reduce job burnout and establish harmonious and stable working environment, nurse administrators should implement intervention to improve professional identity and enhance organizational affective commitment.

Tumor metastasis is one of the important biological characteristics of malignant tumor,which is closely related with the prognosis of the cancer patients.High expression of ADAM8 in varieties of tumors was revealed in many recent studies,and such aberrant expression played a crucial role in regulating of tumor metastasis.Studies showed that overexpression of ADAM8 attenuated the intercellular adhesion effect,promoted tumor angiogenesis,and enhanced the degradation of ECM as well as the releasing of cytokines.Therefore,suppression of ADAM8 may lead to inhibition of tumor metastasis,which makes ADAM8 a particular attractive target as it can be used as a prognostic indicator and a potential therapeutic target of malignant tumor.A review about the relations between ADAM8 protein′s abnormal expression and tumor occurrence was discussed in this paper,also include discussion about the mechanisms of ADAM8 protein′s disorder-induced tumor formation,as well as therapeutic strategies based on ADAM8-targeted,which may provide references for follow-up research and clinical treatment.

Objective To explore the four criteria,including bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis(BISAP),Ranson score,modified CT severity index(MCTSI) and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation scoring system Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) in assessment of severity and prognosis of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis.Methods A total of 326 patients with hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis were studied retrospectively from August 2006 to July 2015.The discrepancy of the four criteria in assessment of severity and prognosis of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis was compared with chi-square test and receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The incidences of moderately severe acute pancreatitis and severe acute pancreatitis,local complications and mortality of patients with BISAP score ≥3,Ranson score ≥3,APACHE Ⅱ score≥8 and MCTSI score≥4 were significantly higher than BISAP score ＜ 3,Ranson score ＜ 3,APACHE Ⅱ score ＜ 8 and MCTSI ＜ 4 respectively (all P ＜ 0.05).As far as severity was concerned,the sensitivity and AUC of APACHE Ⅱ were 57％ and 0.814,which were higher than the other systems.The second most sensitive criterion was BISAP.In assessment of local complications,the sensitivity and AUC of MCTSI were 68％ and 0.791,which were higher than the other three.The most sensitive criterion to predict mortality was BISAP with sensitivity 89％ and AUC 0.867,which was followed by APACHE Ⅱ.Conclusions All four criteria can be used to determine the severity,local complications and mortality.Generally,BISAP is simple and easy to practice,and better than the other three.

The study on tumor metabolism has been gradually be-come a hot spot in recent years .A lot of proteins involved in the regulation of tumor metabolism especially the glucose transporter protein 1(GLUT1).As a key regulatory factor mediating energy metabolism within tumor cells , GLUT1 can regulate the glucose intake and maintain the basic level of metabolism in tumor cells . More importantly, the abnormal expression of GLUT1 was asso-ciated with many kinds of tumors , of which GLUT1 was used to meet the energy requirement for the fast growth of tumor .Thus GLUT1 also played a crucial role in growth , differentiation and metastasis of tumor cells and prognosis of tumors .Meanwhile , as three-dimensional crystal structure of GLUT 1 was determined , it is possible to design the small molecular inhibitors of GLUT 1, which can realize “starve to death” tumor cells.GLUT1 can be a particularly attractive target for tumor treatment and interfer-ence.The relationship between abnormal expression of GLUT 1 protein and tumor metabolism was reviewed . Moreover , the mechanism of tumor metabolism regulated by GLUT 1 protein ex-pression and treatment of cancers were discussed , which may provide references for future research and clinical treatment .

This is a research project aimed at investigating the clinical efficiency of W-F168-B, a dialyzer reprocessing machine made by Weilisheng Biological Material Company in Chengdu, evaluating its effects on total cell volume (TCV) and dialysis sufficiency, and assessing its disinfection efficacy. All subjects were randomly divided into two groups, whose dialyzers were reprocessed by W-F168-B (made in Chengdu) and RENATRON II (made by MINNTECH Company in the United States) respectively. We detected TCV of the dialyzer before and after reusing and calculated their diversity. We also calculated all subjects' Kt/V. The values of TCV diversities of two groups were 5.5 +/- 4.15 (experimental group) and 4.5 +/- 2.56 (control group) respectively, P > 0.05. The levels of Kt/V of experimental group and control group were 1.25 +/- 0.26 and 1.24 +/- 0.19, P > 0.05. T-test showed that there was no statistically significance difference between the two groups. The result of every hemoculture is negative. In conclusion, these two dialyzer reprocessing machines are similar in the effect of the dialyzer's performance and the subject's dialysis sufficiency. The reused dialyzers reprocessed by these two machines are safe for use.
