OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and mechanism of polysaccharides from Hedyotis diffusa (HDP) on isoniazid (INH)-induced liver injury. METHODS Healthy transgenic zebrafish with liver-specific fluorescence were divided into normal group, model group (4 mmol/L INH), HDP low-concentration group (4 mmol/L INH+50 mg/mL HDP) and HDP high- concentration group (4 mmol/L INH+100 mg/mL HDP). After grouping treating, the liver fluorescence area, fluorescence intensity and pathological changes of liver tissue were observed. Human liver L02 cells were divided into normal group, model group (4 mmol/L INH), HDP low-concentration group (4 mmol/L INH+2 mg/mL HDP), and HDP high-concentration group (4 mmol/L INH + 4 mg/mL HDP). After grouping treating, the cell viability was detected, and the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), and the content of glutathione (GSH) as well as the expression levels of silent information regulator 1 (Sirt1), nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) proteins were detected. RESULTS Compared with the model group, the HDP low- and high-concentration groups showed varying degrees of increase in the fluorescence area and fluorescence intensity (except for HDP low-concentration group) of zebrafish liver (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the characteristics of liver injury and necrosis had been improved to varying degrees. Compared with model group, the survival rate of L02 cells, the content of GSH (except for HDP low-concentration group), the protein expression levels of Sirt1 (except for HDP low-concentration group), Nrf2, NQO1, HO-1 (except for HDP low-concentration group) were significantly increased in HDP low- and high-concentration groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the levels of ALT and AST (except for HDP low-concentration group) were significantly decreased (P<0.05); the number of survival cells significantly increased, while the number of damaged or dead cells significantly decreased. CONCLUSIONS HDP has a potential protective effect against INH-induced liver injury, the mechanism of which may be associated with activating Sirt1/Nrf2 signaling pathway, improving mitochondrial function and enhancing antioxidant capacity.

Objective:To explore the status quo of pediatric nurses' cognition of death education, and analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide experience and reference for carrying out death education in pediatric wards.Methods:In this study, 827 nurses from 15 children's hospitals in China were investigated by using the scale for evaluating the cognition of death education in medical staff prepared by Zhang Yan-gai, and the related factors affecting the cognition of death education were analyzed. SPSS 23.0 was used for independent-samples t-test and ANOVA analysis, and multiple regression equation was used to further analyze the relationship between the cognitive factors of death education in pediatric nurses. Results:The total score of death education cognition of pediatric nurses was (35.61±5.64) points, which was lower than the median score of 36 points. The degree of death education cognition of pediatric nurses was at the medium-low level. The results of correlation analysis showed that the professional title of nurses (regression coefficient: 0.064, P=0.045), the training demand for death education (regression coefficient: 0.300, P<0.001), and the way of understanding (regression coefficient: 0.018, P=0.003) were independent influencing factors of the death education cognition level of pediatric nurses. Conclusions:Pediatric nurse death education related theoretical knowledge should be improved through various professional trainings. The hospitals should include death education in pediatric nurse continuing education training plan to improve pediatric nurses' cognitive level of death education through a variety of ways and means, promote the application of death education activities carried out in pediatric ward in the hospice care, reduce deaths impact to nurse their own emotions, and alleviate parents' anxiety and painful experience, thereby improving medical satisfaction.
