Objective: To investigate the impact of temperature changes between neighboring days (TCN) on the mortality risk of respiratory diseases, so as to provide the evidence for the study of deaths from respiratory diseases caused by climate change. Methods: The monitoring data of deaths from respiratory diseases in Zibo City from 2015 to 2019 were collected from Shandong Provincial Management Information System for Chronic Diseases and Cause of Death Surveillance. The meteorological and air pollutant data of the same period were collected from China Meteorological Data Website and ChinaHighAirPollutants dataset. The effect of TCN on the risk of deaths from respiratory diseases was examined using a generalized additive model combined with a distributed lag non-linear model, and subgroup analyses for gender and age were conducted. The disease burden attributed to TCN at different intervals was assessed by calculating attributable fraction. Results: Totally 11 767 deaths from respiratory diseases were reported in Zibo City from 2015 to 2019, including 6 648 males (56.50%) and 5 119 females (43.50%). There were 1 307 deaths aged <65 years (11.11%), and 10 460 deaths aged 65 years and older (88.89%). A monotonically increasing exposure-response relationship was observed between TCN and deaths from respiratory diseases in the general population, females, and the population aged 65 years and older. The 95th percentile of TCN (P95, 3.84 ℃) reached the peak at a cumulative lagged of day 11 (RR=2.063, 95%CI: 1.261-3.376). The results of subgroup analyses showed greater impacts on females and the population aged 65 years and older, with cumulative lagged effects peaking at day 12 (RR=3.119, 95%CI: 1.476-6.589) and day 11 (RR=2.107, 95%CI: 1.260-3.523). The results of attributional risk analysis showed that next-day warming might increase the attributable risk of deaths from respiratory diseases, and next-day cooling might decrease the attributable risk. Conclusion Next-day warming may increase the mortality risk of respiratory diseases, and has greater impacts on females and the population aged 65 years and older.

The first stage (P1) started from August 1986 to December 1990. The second stage (P2) started from January 1991 to December 1995. The third stage (P3) started from January 1996 to December 2000. The fourth stage (P4) started from January 2001 to December 2005. The fifth stage (P5) started from January 2006 to December 2010. The sixth stage (P6) started from January 2011 to December 2015. The seventh stage (P7) started from January 2016 to December 2020.Results:The age was (36.47±14.86) years old (18-83 years old) in 5 652 renal biopsies. There were 2 961 males (52.39%). There were 5 636 cases of autologous kidney biopsy and 16 cases of transplanted kidney biopsy. The descending order of incidence classified by disease types were primary glomerular disease (PGD, 4 470 cases, 79.31%), secondary glomerular disease (SGD, 994 cases, 17.64%), tubular-interstitial disease (160 cases, 2.84%), and hereditary nephropathy (12 cases, 0.21%). IgA nephropathy (IgAN, 1 573 cases, 35.19%) was the most frequent pathologic type of PGD, followed by membranous nephropathy (MN, 1 028 cases, 23.00%), mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MsPGN, 878 cases, 19.64%), minimal change disease (MCD, 427 cases, 9.55%), and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (345 cases, 7.72%). Lupus nephritis (LN, 251 cases, 25.25%) was the most common type of SGD, followed by hypertension nephropathy (193 cases, 19.42%), diabetic kidney disease (168 cases, 16.90%), purpura nephritis (138 cases, 13.88%), and ischemic nephropathy (90 cases, 9.05%). IgAN was the most common type of primary glomerulonephritis and mainly occurred in the age group of 18-59 years old. PGD was the most common glomerular disease in Han nationality (78.33%), Uygur nationality (81.72%) and other ethnic (77.15%) groups. Using Bonferroni correction method, the incidence of PGD in Uygur nationality was higher than that in Han nationality ( P<0.017). From P1 to P7, the detection rates of MN and MCD were increased in common renal pathological types, meanwhile, the ratio of MsPGN was decreased (all P<0.05). From P5 to P7, the detection rates of MN in Han nationality and Uygur nationality increased in the common pathological types of PGD, meanwhile, the ratio of MsPGN decreased (all P<0.05). LN was the most common SGD. The incidence of LN in females was higher than that in males ( P<0.001). Using Bonferroni correction method, the incidence of SGD in Uygur nationality was lower than that in Han nationality ( P<0.017). There was no significant variation in the common pathological type of SGD in Han and Uygur nationalities. Chronic rejection was the main pathological type of transplanted kidney biopsies. Conclusions:PGD is the main type of kidney disease spectrum in People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. IgAN is the most common PGD and mainly occurrs in the age group of 18-59 years old. As time goes by, the proportion of MN and MCD is increased, meanwhile the proportion of MsPGN is decreased significantly. LN is the most common SGD.

Objective:To explore the effects of 5E rehabilitation nursing model on self-management behavior and fatigue symptoms of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) .Methods:Totally 110 COPD patients admitted in Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital from October 2018 to September 2019 were selected by convenient sampling, and divided into the control group ( n=53) and the experimental group ( n=57) according to the random number table. Excluding missing patients and patients with incomplete data, finally 48 patients were included in the control group and 51 patients were included in the experimental group. Patients in the control group received routine care and health guidance, while patients in the experimental group received care based on the 5E rehabilitation nursing model. The Self-Management Scale for COPD Patients and the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-F) were used to evaluate the effects of interventions in the two groups. Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the scores of the Self-Management Scale between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05) ; the scores of all dimensions the Self-Management Scale of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group 12 weeks after discharge, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . There was no statistically significant difference in fatigue scores between the two groups before intervention and 12 weeks after discharge ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:The 5E rehabilitation nursing model can improve the self-management behavior of COPD patients, but it cannot ameliorate the fatigue symptoms of patients. Large-sample, multi-center, and long-term research will be further needed in the future to explore the effects of the 5E rehabilitation nursing model on patients' fatigue symptoms.

Objective To examine the expressions of multidrug resistance gene (MDR)-1 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in nasopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma CNE1 cell line before and after X-ray exposure.Methods CNE1 cells were exposed to X-ray.After the irradiation,the CNE1 cells were cultured for 24 hours and tested.The mRNA expressions of MDR-1 in CNE1 cells were measured by semi-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) before and after X-ray exposure,and the protein expressions of P-gp in CNE1 cells were detected by Western blotting.The protein expressions of P-gp in CNE1 cells were observed by confocal microscope before and after X-ray exposure.Results The results of RT-PCR showed that the absorbance (A) values of MDR-1 mRNA in CNE1 cells were 0.17 ±0.01 and 0.34 ±0.03 before and after irradiation,and the difference was statistically significant (t =16.541,P ＜ 0.001).The results of Western blotting showed that the A values of P-gp protein in CNE1 cells were 0.02 ± 0.01 and 0.04 ± 0.01,and the difference was statistically significant (t =4.612,P =0.016).The green fluorescence intensity of P-gp protein in CNE1 cells after X-ray irradiation was higher than that before X-ray irradiation by confocal microscope.Conclusion X-ray irradiation can cause the high expressions of MDR-1 and P-gp in CNE1 cells,suggesting that X-ray irradiation can induce the occurrence of multidrug resistance in CNE1 cells.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Patients with long-standing diabetes often demonstrate intestinal dysfunction and abdominal pain. However, the pathophysiology of abdominal pain in diabetic patients remains elusive. The purpose of study was to determine roles of voltage-gated sodium channels in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) in colonic hypersensitivity of rats with diabetes. METHODS: Diabetic models were induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ; 65 mg/kg) in adult female rats, while the control rats received citrate buffer only. Behavioral responses to colorectal distention were used to determine colonic sensitivity in rats. Colon projection DRG neurons labeled with DiI were acutely dissociated for measuring excitability and sodium channel currents by whole-cell patch clamp recordings. Western blot analysis was employed to measure the expression of NaV1.7 and NaV1.8 of colon DRGs. RESULTS: STZ injection produced a significantly lower distention threshold than control rats in responding to colorectal distention. STZ injection also depolarized the resting membrane potentials, hyperpolarized action potential threshold, decreased rheobase and increased frequency of action potentials evoked by 2 and 3 times rheobase and ramp current stimulation. Furthermore, STZ injection enhanced neuronal sodium current densities of DRG neurons innervating the colon. STZ injection also led to a significant upregulation of NaV1.7 and NaV1.8 expression in colon DRGs compared with age and sex-matched control rats. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that enhanced neuronal excitability following STZ injection, which may be mediated by upregulation of NaV1.7 and NaV1.8 expression in DRGs, may play an important role in colonic hypersensitivity in rats with diabetes.

Objective To explore the effects of teach-back method on the compliance of functional exercises in postoperative patients with breast cancer. Methods Totally 105 postoperative patients with breast cancer admitted in our hospital from March to September 2015 were selected as the control group, and 114 patients from October 2015 to March 2016 were selected as the intervention group. Patients in the intervention group received the functional exercises based on teach-back method, while patients in the control group received routine health education method. The mastery skill score and compliance of functional exercise one day before discharge in two groups were compared. Results The mastery skill score of functional exercise one day before discharge was (63.73±5.51) in the intervention group, which was significantly higher than (56.45±4.88) in the control group ( P<0.05);the constituent ratio of fully compliance, partial compliance and noncompliance status in the intervention group one day before discharge were 64. 91%, 25. 44%, 9. 65%, and they were obviously superior to the control group (47.62%, 36.19%, 16.19%) (P<0.05). Conclusions Teach back method can effectively improve the skill and compliance of functional exercise in postoperative patients with breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To perform a Meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials that compared the efficacy and adverse events profile of Mabs for LA HNSCC. METHOD: Several databases were searched, including CBM, PUBMED, EMBASE, and CENTRAL. Primary outcomes included overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary outcomes included serious adverse events, such as grade 3-4 skin reaction, dysphagia, mucositis, and nausea/vomiting. The results were expressed as relative ratio (RR) or hazard rate (HR) with their corresponding 95% CI. RESULT: The final analysis included 10 trials. The primary analyses indicated that Mabs did not improve ORR and PFS, except OS for locoregionally advanced (LA) HNSCC [ORR 1.21, 95% CI (0.97 - 1.49); PFS 0.87, 95% CI (0.75 - 1.01); OS 0.82, 95% CI (0.71 - 0.95)]. Analysis of adverse effects demonstrated that grade 3 - 4 skin reaction ERR 1.87, 95% CI (1.11 - 3.16)] was statistically significantly associated with Mabs except dysphagia ERR 0. 95, 95% CI (0.75 - 1.19)], Mucositis ERR 1.03, 95% CI (0.67 - 1.57)], and nausea/vomiting ERR 1.15, 95% CI (0.71 - 1.86)]. CONCLUSION Anti-EGFR Mabs may be satisfactory for improving OS of LA HNSCC. During the Mabs therapy, skin reaction should be much more monitored.
