OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for confirming the protective effect of the establishment of PIVAS on antineoplastic drugs(ADs)occupational exposure to nursing staff in clinical departments,and to provide the basis for the formulation of ADs dispensing guideline and occupational exposure protection regulations. METHODS:By questionnaire survey and deriving data of lab examination index,the occurrence of abnormal menstruation,bad birth outcome,alopecia,blood toxicity, liver and renal toxicity in nursing staff of clinical departments with different ADs contact frequencies(non-exposure group as group A,low-exposure group as group B,high-exposure group as group C)were investigated and analyzed in our hospital before and after the establishment of PIVAS. The residual of ADs [methotrexate(MTX)and 5-Fluorouracil(5-FU)] in PIVAS environment were investigated by HPLC. RESULTS:A total of 160 questionnaires were sent out before the establishment of PIVAS,and 151 were effectively collected with effective recovery of 94.38%. After the establishment of PIVAS,150 questionnaires were sent out,and 144 were effectively collected with effective recovery of 96.00%. Questionnaire results showed that the incidence of abnormal menstruation,abnormal menstruation period,dysmenorrhea,spontaneous abortion,infertility and offspring low birth weight,the severity of hair loss in group C were significantly higher than group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05 or P<0.01). The incidence of above 6 conditions in group C were 5.14,6.10,3.81,4.04,6.15,8.08 times higher than in group A.At same time, the incidence of the offspring low birth weight and the severity of hair loss in group B were significantly higher than group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05 or P<0.01);the incidence of the former in group B was 6.21 times higher than in group A.After the establishment of PIVAS,the incidence of abnormal menstruation,abnormal menstruation period,dysmenorrhea,spontaneous abortion,infertility and offspring low birth weight,the severity of hair loss were decreased significantly in group C,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The severity of hair loss in group C was significantly higher than group A,and there was no statistical significance in above indexes,compared with group A(P>0.05). At the same time,there was no statistical significance in the incidence of the offspring low birth weight and the severity of hair loss between group B and A(P>0.05). Results of lab examination index investigation showed that before the establishment of PIVAS,WBC and PLT of group C were significantly lower than group A,and the incidence of abnormal liver function was significantly higher than group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05 or P<0.01). After the establishment PIVAS,WBC,PLT and RBC of group C,and PLT of group B were increased significantly compared to before the establishment PIVAS;the incidence of abnormal liver function in group C was decreased significantly compared to before the establishment PIVAS,with statistical significance(P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no statistical significance in above indexes between group C and A(P>0.05),and PLT of group B was even significantly higher than group A(P<0.05). Results of investigation of ADs residues in PIVAS environment showed that there were different degrees of MTX and 5-FU residue on the surface of different objects. The residues of ADs from high to low were biological safety cabinet worktops,the floor just below biological safety cabinet,transfer box,transfer window and door handle and infusion bags. CONCLUSIONS:Nursing staff of clinical department with high ADs contact frequency face higher relevant health risks. The establishment of PIVAS can effectively protect the ADs occupational exposure of nursing staff in clinical departments,thereby reducing the above risks.At the same time,there are still different degrees of ADs residues on the surface of different objects in the PIVAS environment,and transshipment out of PIVAS is possible. It is suggested that the awareness of protection against occupational exposure risk caused by ADs residues in PIVAS environment should be improved;unified guideline for ADs dispensing and occupational exposure protection regulations should be formulated as soon as possible,so as to reduce occupational exposure risk associated with ADs for nursing staff in PIVAS and clinical departments.

Objective To investigate the silencing effect of RNA interference on MSTN gene ( myostatin, MSTN) expression, and detect the effects on the downstream genes in Schizopygopsis pylzovi. Methods To construct the recombi?nant adenovirus vector 1P3 (DSP MSTN 273+250+1737) and 1P2 (DSP MSTN 195+ 1670) for RNA interference of the MSTN gene in Schizopygopsis pylzovi, and to conduct the RNA interference in vivo experiment by injecting the vector in?to the muscle tissue of Schizopygopsis pylzovi. Real?time PCR and Western blotting were used to evaluate the silencing effects on MSTN gene expression, and to detect the regulatory function of M?CK at gene transcription level after RNA inter?ference of the MSTN gene. Results The result of real?time PCR showed that compared with the HK team ( Virus general negative control group) and N team (blank control group), the 1P3 had significant interference effect on the MSTN gene transcription in Schizopygopsis pylzovi (P<0?05), with an inhibition rate of 53?5%, but the 1P2 had no significant inter?ference effect on the MSTN gene transcription. The result of Western blotting was consistent with the results of real?time PCR. At the same time, after the 1P3 interference, the level of MSTN gene transcription was declined, and the level of M? CK gene expression was significantly increased. Conclusions Our results demonstrate that the expression of MSTN gene can be effectively suppressed, and the expression of M?CK gene can be up?regulated through the RNA interference. There?fore, it proves that MSTN gene can inhibit the transcription of M?CK gene in Schizopygopsis pylzovi, and reveals the regula?tory role of MSTN gene in the muscle growth and development in the plateau fish Schizopygopsis pylzovi.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) complicated with Yangming Fushi syndrome.Methods A prospective study was conducted. From August 2009 to July 2013, 206 patients with Yangming Fushi syndrome combined with ALI/ARDS were enrolled in the intensive care units ( ICUs ) of the following five hospitals: Tianjin Nankai Hospital, Dongzhimen Hospital Affiliated to Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine University, General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University, and Wuxi Third People's Hospital in Jiangsu Province. According to the mortality occurring in ICU, the patients were divided into death group and survival group. The gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ ( APACHE Ⅱ ) score within the first 24 hours after admission, the length of invasive mechanical ventilation, usage of vasoactive agents, ratio of operative intervention, the length of stay in ICU, application of continuous renal replacement therapy ( CRRT ), amount of blood transfusion, the level of C-reactive protein ( CRP ), lactulose/mannitol ( L/M ) ratio, the number of organs with dysfunction, oxygenation index ( PaO2/FiO2 ), levels of lactate and serum creatinine ( SCr ) of both groups were recorded. Logistic regression analysis was used to look for the independent risk factors of death of patients. Results There were 124 cases with severe acute pancreatitis ( SAP ), which was the most common disease with manifestation of Yangming Fushi syndrome combined with ALI/ARDS, accounting for 60.19% of all the patients. During the period of hospitalization in ICU, 171 patients survived and 35 died, and the mortality rate was 16.99%. The risk factors of the two groups were analyzed by variable analysis, and it was shown that compared with those in survival group, the age ( years: 57.26±16.23 vs. 48.07±13.48, t = 3.544, P = 0.000 ), APACHE Ⅱ score ( 20.83±9.73 vs. 12.61±6.63, t = 4.777, P = 0.000 ), the length of invasive mechanical ventilation ( days: 10.97±7.71 vs. 6.91±2.48, t = 2.555, P = 0.015 ) and the number of dysfunction organs ( 3.11±1.21 vs. 1.60±1.34, t = 6.222, P = 0.000 ) in death group were significantly higher. The level of PaO2/FiO2 [ mmHg ( 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa ): 218.56±64.90 vs. 244.58±85.10, t = -2.024, P = 0.044 ] in the death group was significantly lower than that of the survival group, while the length of ICU stay ( days: 14.33±10.81 vs. 9.11±7.37, t = 2.600, P = 0.010 ), the usage rates of CRRT [ 28.57% ( 10/35 ) vs. 15.20% ( 26/171 ), χ2 = 3.968, P = 0.046 ], vasoactive agents [ 28.57% ( 10/35 ) vs. 12.28% ( 21/171 ), χ2 = 6.511, P = 0.011 ], and blood transfusion ratio [ 42.86% ( 15/35 ) vs. 23.39% ( 40/171 ), χ2 = 7.042, P = 0.008 ] were all obviously higher in the death group than those in the survival group. There were no statistically significant differences in gender, number of operation, the levels of CRP, L/M ratio, lactate and SCr between the two groups ( all P > 0.05 ). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age [ odds ratio ( OR ) = 0.938, 95% confidence interval ( 95%CI ) = 0.898-0.980, P = 0.004 ], APACHE Ⅱ score ( OR = 0.914, 95%CI = 0.839-0.996, P = 0.041 ), the number of dysfunction organs ≥ 3 ( OR = 0.223, 95%CI = 0.066-0.754, P = 0.016 ), and the level of PaO2/FiO2 ( OR = 0.990, 95%CI = 0.982-0.998, P = 0.015 ) were independent risk factors for mortality. Conclusions The age, APACHE Ⅱ score, number of dysfunction organs ≥ 3 and the level of PaO2/FiO2 are of significance in predicting the prognosis of patients with Yangming Fushi syndrome combined with ALI/ARDS. Patients with risk factors of high mortality should be more carefully monitored and treated aggressively.
