Objective:To explore the application effects of mind mapping combined with scenario simulation training on the ability training of junior nurses in hospital transfer of patients with critical burns and trauma.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted. From December 2019 to December 2020, 55 female junior nurses from the Institute of Burn Research of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (the Third Military Medical University) who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study and divided into routine group (27 nurses, aged (24.0±0.9) years) and combined group (28 nurses, aged (24.2±0.8) years), according to the random number table. The nurses in routine group were trained with hospital transfer of patients with critical burns and trauma by theory combined with operational skill, and the nurses in combined group were trained with hospital transfer of patients with critical burns and trauma by mind mapping combined with scenario simulation training. Before and after the training, the self-made theoretical examination papers and skill assessment items were used for the examination and assessment to nurses, and their scores were calculated and compared. The self-made emergency ability scoring system was used to evaluate the emergency disposal ability of nurses from five dimensions, including team cooperation ability, emergency response ability, operative technique ability, specialized business ability, and nurse-patient communication ability, and their scores were calculated and compared. The non-standard implementation rates of transfer nursing measures, such as incomplete preparation of goods, poor communication effect of patients, inadequate pipeline nursing, unclear handover, and inadequate final treatment, were calculated and compared in the process of transporting highly simulated human (hereinafter referred to as simulated human) by nurses before and after training; and the rate of disease change and successful rate of transport of simulated human were calculated and compared after training. After assessment, self-made satisfaction questionnaire was used to compare nurses' satisfaction with the training mode, content, and effects. Data were statistically analyzed with independent sample t test, Pearson chi-square test, or Yates corrected chi-square test. Results:Fifty-five enrolled nurses were fully involved in the training, examination, assessment, and questionnaire filling. Before training, there were no statistically significant differences in theoretical examination and skill assessment scores between the 2 groups ( P>0.05); After training, the theoretical examination and skill assessment scores of nurses in combined group were significantly higher than those in routine group (with t values of -3.89 and -4.24, respectively, P<0.05). Before training, there were no statistically significant differences in the scores of each item of emergency disposal ability between the 2 groups ( P>0.05); after training, the scores in terms of team cooperation ability, emergency response ability, operative technique ability, specialized business ability, and nurse-patient communication ability of nurses in combined group were significantly higher than those in routine group (with t values of -6.49, -6.44, -2.21, -2.85, and -2.34, respectively, P<0.05). Before training, there were no statistically significant differences in the non-standard implementation rates of transfer nursing measures of nurses between the 2 groups ( P>0.05); after training, the non-standard rates of incomplete preparation of goods, unclear handover, and inadequate final treatment of nurses in combined group were significantly lower than those in routine group (with t values of 3.87, 5.89, and 5.28, respectively, P<0.05). After training, the rate of disease change of simulated human of nurses in combined group was 7.14% (2/28), which was significantly lower than 33.33% (9/27) in routine group ( χ2=5.89, P<0.05); the successful rate of transport was 96.43% (27/28), which was significantly higher than 74.07% (20/27) in routine group ( χ2=3.87, P<0.05). After assessment, the total score of training satisfaction and scores of satisfaction with training mode and training effect of nurses in combined group were significantly higher than those in routine group (with t values of 5.22, 4.67, and 10.71, respectively, P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the satisfaction score on training content between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Evidence-based mind mapping combined with scenario simulation training significantly improves the nursing skills and emergency handling capabilities of junior nurses in transferring patients with critical burns and trauma.

Balancing the risks and benefits of organophosphate pesticides(OPs)on human and environmental health relies partly on their accurate measurement.A highly sensitive fluorescence anti-quenching multi-residue bio-barcode immunoassay was developed to detect OPs(triazophos,parathion,and chlorpyrifos)in apples,turnips,cabbages,and rice.Gold nanoparticles were functionalized with monoclonal antibodies against the tested OPs.DNA oligonucleotides were complementarily hybridized with an RNA fluorescent label for signal amplification.The detection signals were generated by DNA-RNA hybridization and ribonuclease H dissociation of the fluorophore.The resulting fluorescence signal en-ables multiplexed quantification of triazophos,parathion,and chlorpyrifos residues over the concen-tration range of 0.01-25,0.01-50,and 0.1-50 ng/mL with limits of detection of 0.014,0.011,and 0.126 ng/mL,respectively.The mean recovery ranged between 80.3％and 110.8％with relative standard deviations of 7.3％-17.6％,which correlate well with results obtained by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS).The proposed bio-barcode immunoassay is stable,reproducible and reliable,and is able to detect low residual levels of multi-residue OPs in agricultural products.

Objective:To understand the etiological characteristics of an acute gastroenteritis outbreak.Methods:Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and bacteria cultures were performed for the samples, including stool samples from patients and cooks, environmental swabs, raw food material (chicken meat), collected during the outbreak. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, antibiotics susceptibility test and whole-genome sequencing were performed for the Campylobacter jejuni isolates. Results:Four stool samples from patients were positive for Campylobacter jejuni by real-time PCR, in which 1 Campylobacter jejuni strain was isolated from a case who had no antibiotic treatment. Twelve Campylobacter jejuni and 7 Campylobacter coli isolates were obtained from 4 raw chicken meat samples. The Campylobacter jejuni strain isolated from the case was resistant to nalidixic acid, ciprofloxacin, chloramphenicol, florfenicol and tetracycline. The MLST analysis with the whole-genome sequences confirmed that the Campylobacter jejuni isolate from the case belonged to ST10075. Antimicrobial resistance genes cmeABCR, tetO/M and blaOXA-61 were found in the genome of the isolate from the patient by the whole-genome sequencing. No mutation in 23S rRNA was found and the C257T mutation in gyrA was identified in this isolate. Conclusion:Laboratory analysis indicated that Campylobacter jejuni infection might be the major cause of this gastroenteritis outbreak.

Objective To investigate the effect of endocrine gland-derived vascular endothelial growth factor(EG-VEGF) on the proliferation and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells and on the regulation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Methords The expression of EG-VEGF and its receptor-VEGFR-2 in pancreatic cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues was detected by PCR.The effect of EG-VEGF on proliferation of human pancreatic cancer cells was detected by MTT assay.The effect of EG-VEGF on the apoptosis of human pancreatic cancer cells was detected by flow cytometry.Western lot was used to detect the changes of related proteins expression in PI3K/AKT signaling pathway after EG-VEGF treatment.Results The expression (3.08±0.30,2.17±0.16 respectively) of EG-VEGF and VEGFR-2 in pancreatic cancer tissues was significantly higher than those (1.55±0.73,0.54±0.34 respectively) in adjacent tissues (both P＜ 0.05).MTT and flow cytometry data showed that EG-VEGF could promote the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and inhibit cell apoptosis.Western blot showed that EG-VEGF promoted AKT phosphorylation and activated PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Conclusion EG-VEGF is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer tissue,and can activate PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to promote cell proliferation and inhibit cell apoptosis.

In the development of oxidative stress-relevant diseases, reactive oxygen species (ROS) removal obstacle or excess production results in the damage of the body tissues and organs. Recent studies have demonstrated that nuclear factor E2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1 (Nrf2/HO-1) axis played a significant role in anti-oxidative stress. The Nrf2/HO-1 axis counteracts oxidative stress injury by its resistance to inflammation, oxidation, mitochondrial damage and calcium influx, apoptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis and autophagy, which provides a theoretical basis for its therapeutic effect on various oxidative stress-relevant diseases in multiple organs (respiratory, cardiovascular, nervous, digestive, urinary and blood systems). Therefore, effective regulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signal axis can be an important strategy for treatment of oxidative stress-relevant diseases.

BACKGROUND:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is progressive respiratory disease characterized by airflow limitation.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the therapeutic effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
METHODS:Sixty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control, model and treatment groups (n=20 per group). Rat models of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were made in the model and treatment group, while no treatment was done in the control group. After modeling, rats in the treatment group were given tail vein injection of CM-Dil-labeled adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel s, and rats in the model and control groups given the same amount of normal saline. Rat pulmonary ventilation function, inflammatory factor level and pathological changes of the lung were detected at 14 days after cel transplantation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After modeling, reduced lung function was found in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, but the cel transplantation significantly improved this reduction (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, significantly reduced indexes were visible in the treatment group (P<0.05), including the total number of white blood cel s, the number of macrophages and neutrophils, levels of interleukin-8, tumor necrosis factorαand C-reactive protein in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid as wel as serum level of malondialdehyde, while serum superoxide dismutase activity was increased significantly in the treatment group (P<0.05). In the treatment group, emphysema-like changes were mitigated and CM-Dil-labeled adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel s were capable of homing to the lung tissue of rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and survived. Al these findings show that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cel transplantation can improve lung function of rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and reduce inflammatory response, which has for certain some therapeutic effects.

The analytes were extracted with mixture of hexane and dichloromethane (1∶1, V/V) by accelerated solvent extraction (ASE), and purified by 100 mg C18 dispersive solid phase extraction ( SPE) sorbents followed with gel permeation chromatography (GPC) , and then analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometric (HPLC-MS/MS) and gas chromatography-negative chemical ionization mass spectrometry (GC-NCI/MS), respectively. The quantita-tion was carried out external standard method. The recoveries of objects were 64. 5%-97. 2% and 65. 6%-109 . 2% ( except BDE85 was 54 . 8%, OH-BDE-137 was 47 . 4%) spiked at 1 . 0 μg/kg or 5 . 0 μg/kg in egg white and egg yolk, respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) were less than 20. 2%. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) for the object were 0. 01-0. 2 μg/kg.

Objective To assess the dignosis value of CT three-dimensional reconstruction with Fisher discriminant model in small solitary pulmonary nodules before operation.Methods CT data of 40 cases with SPN were retrospectively analyzed and divided into into malignant pulmonary nodules (25 cases),squamous cell carcinoma (4 cases),adenocarcinoma (13 cases),lung cancer (4 ca-ses),small cell lung cancer (2 cases),large cell carcinoma (1 case),metastases tumor (1 case),benign nodules (1 5 cases,6 cases of tuberculosis,2 cases of hamartoma,and 7 cases of non-specific inflammatory nodules)by pathology and follow-up results.The CT features of pulmonary nodules were evaluated through multi-planar reformation (MPR),curved-planar reformation (CPR),volume rendering (VR),maximum intensity proj ection (MIP)and other three-dimensional reconstruction.The three-dimensional data were divided into benign and malignant groups.In each of the two groups,the significant signs of morphological signs of discrimination indicators were adminstrated Fisher discriminant,and the probalitiy of false positives were estimated using cross-validation method. Results The positive features of pulmonary nodules in there-dismensional images were much more than in two-dimensional images. Fisher discriminant formula of solitary pulmonary nodules in three-dimensional images was Z=1.143X1 + 0.454X2+1.606X3-0.262X4+0.04X5+0.483X6+1.611X7-2.164.Discriminant boundary value Zc was-0.516.When Zcgreater than -0.516,nodules were proneed to considere as malignant nodules.In 25 cases of malignant nodules,4 cases mistook for benign.When Zc less than -0.516,nodules were proneed to considere as benign nod-ules.In 1 5 benign nodules,2 cases mistook for malignant.The total misdiagnosis and accuracy rate were 15 % and 85% respec-tively.Conclusion CT three-dimensional reconstruction combined with Fisher discriminant model have a high clinical value in dif-fereiating diagonsis of pulmonary nodules were proneed to considere as malignant nodules.In 25 cases of malignant nodules,4 cases mistook for benign.When Zc less than -0.516,nodules were proneed to considere as benign nodules. In 15 benign nodules,2 cases mistook for malignant.The total misdiagnosis and accuracy rate were 15 % and 85% respec-tively.Conclusion CT three-dimensional reconstruction combined with Fisher discriminant model have a high clinical value in differeiating diagonsis of pulmonary nodules.

The transition metal cobalt, an essential cofactor for many enzymes in prokaryotes, is taken up by several specific transport systems. The CbiMNQO protein complex belongs to type-1 energy-coupling factor (ECF) transporters and is a widespread group of microbial cobalt transporters. CbiO is the ATPase subunit (A-component) of the cobalt transporting system in the gram-negative thermophilic bacterium Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis. Here we report the crystal structure of a nucleotide-free CbiO at a resolution of 2.3 Å. CbiO contains an N-terminal canonical nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and C-terminal helical domain. Structural and biochemical data show that CbiO forms a homodimer mediated by the NBD and the C-terminal domain. Interactions mainly via conserved hydrophobic amino acids between the two C-terminal domains result in formation of a four-helix bundle. Structural comparison with other ECF transporters suggests that non-conserved residues outside the T-component binding groove in the A component likely act as a specificity determinant for T components. Together, our data provide information on understanding of the structural organization and interaction of the CbiMNQO system.
