Objective:To study the effects of Shuxuening injection(SXN)on Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in hippocampus of rats with cerebral ischemia.Methods:SD rats were divided into three groups:Sham operation group(Sham),middle cerebral artery occlusion group(MCAO)and MCAO+SXN treatment group(MCAO+SXN).The model of cerebral ischemia in rats was prepared by MCAO.The rats with cerebral ischemia were treated with SXN by caudal vein injection.Zea-Longa scoring criteria and balance beam test were employed to evaluated neurological function of rats.HE staining were used to observe the changes of inflammatory cells infiltration the hippocampal CAI region.The expression of β-catenin in hippocampal CA1 region was observed by immunofluorescence staining.The mRNA and pro-tein expressions of caspase-3,cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)and endothelial nitric oxide synthetase(eNOS)in hippocam-pus were detected by real time RT-PCR and Western Blot,respectively.Results:SXN can SXN can improve the neuro-logical dysfunction of cerebral ischemia rats.The inflammatory cells infiltration in hippocampal CAI region was decreased,and the expression of β-catenin,caspase-3 and COX-2 was decreased,while the expression of eNOS was upregulated.Conclusion:SXN protects against cerebral ischemia by inhibiting Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway against inflammation response,oxidative stress and apoptosis of nerve cells in rats.

Objective:To explore the effect of the 3D printed model assisted network teaching of neurosurgery.Methods:Seventy-six probation students were divided into: 3D printed model assisted online course teaching group (test group) and traditional teaching group (control group). After 1-month online teaching, quantitative assessment and satisfaction survey were carried out. SPSS 17.0 was used for statistical analysis of variance.Results:The department graduation test (theory and operation) scores of students in the test group were (86.7±7.4) points, which was significantly higher than those in the control group (78.2±8.2) points ( t=5.56, P<0.01). The teaching satisfaction survey showed that the test group had significantly higher scores in self-evaluation of spatial imagination ( t=3.81, P<0.01), deepening understanding of neuroanatomy ( t=5.29, P<0.01), and increasing interest in clinical learning ( t=5.12, P<0.01) than those of the control group. Conclusion:Compared with the conventional online teaching methods, 3D printed model assisted online teaching helps to improve teaching quality and students' satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the work-family conflict, work withdrawal behavior and psychological resilience of postpartum female nurses with the second-child, analyze the relationships between them, further analyze whether there is a mediating role of psychological resilience between work-family conflict and work withdrawal behavior.Methods:A total of 303 postpartum female nurses with the second-child were assessed with general information questionnaire, Work-Family Conflict Scale(WFC), Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC) and Work Withdrawal Behavior Scale(WWBS).Results:The total score of WFC was 53.22±13.63, and the highest score in the factor of time while lowest in the factor of behavior with 18.92±5.00,16.92±6.07. The total score of WWBS was 18.79±4.26, and the score of dimension of psychological withdrawal and behavioral withdrawal was 13.99±3.53, 4.80±1.22. The total score of CD-RISC was 88.81±16.45. The total scores and scores of each dimension of WFC were positively correlated with those of WWBS( r values were 0.122-0.396, P<0.05 or 0.01). The total scores and scores of each dimension of CD-RISC were negatively correlated with those of WWBS and WFC( r values were -0.320--0.094, P<0.05 or 0.01). Structural equation modeling analysis showed that work-family conflict indirectly affected work withdrawal behavior through psychological resilience. Conclusions:Cultivating psychological resilience shows a positive effect on easing the work-family conflict and improving work withdrawal behavior for postpartum female nurses with the second-child.

Objective:
To investigate the expression of circular RNA hsa_circ_0128298 in hepatocellular harcinoma (HCC) and evaluate its function in the growth process of HCC.
Methods:
qPCR was used to detect the expressions of hsa_circ_0128298 in 50 HCC tissues, corresponding paracancerous tissues and HCC cells. The effects of hsa_circ_0128298 on HCC growth was analyzed by CCK-8 kit, flow cytometry and western blot assays. The values of hsa_circ_0128298 for the diagnosis and prognosis of HCC were assessed by ROC curve and survival curve analyses.
Results:
Compared with the paracancerous tissues, the expression of hsa_circ_0128298 was significantly increased in HCC tissues ( U =846.0, P =0.005). The area under ROC curve (AUCROC) was 0.661, 95% confidence interval ( CI ) was 0.560 to 0.753, sensitivity was 80.0% and specificity was 50.0%. HCC patients with high expression of hsa_circ_0128298 displayed less overall survival time than those with low expression of hsa_circ_0128298 ( χ 2=6.294, P =0.012). RNA interference of hsa_circ_0128298 (si-hsa_circ_0128298) significantly inhibited HCC cell proliferation and induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1, and also induced mRNA upregulation and protein expression of cyclin p21. Meanwhile,si-p21 partially reversed the proliferation inhibition and cell cycle arrest of HCC cells induced by si-hsa_circ_0128298, and restore its growth and proliferation potential.
Conclusion
The highly expressed hsa_circ_0128298 in HCC could promote the growth of HCC by regulating the expression of p21 and promise to be a new target for diagnosis and treatment of HCC.

Objective To compare and evaluate fractional flow reserve (FFR) by intravenous infusion of adenosine 5’-triphosphate (ATP) through femoral veins and hand dosal veins. To find the feasibility of measuring FFR through ATP infusion at hand dosal veins. Methods A total of 27 patients receiving coronary angiography (CAG) were enrolled. FFR was measured by intravenous injection of ATP through femoral veins and hand dosal veins separately in 31 stenosed coronary arteries. Results A linear correlation between ATP infusion measuring FFR through femoral and hand dosal veins was observed. Heart rates, PR intervals and side effects were of no difference between the 2 routes of ATP infusion (P=0.79, P=0.56, P=0.85). It indicated that ATP infusion[160μg/(kg·min)]measuring FFR through hand dosal veins was compatable to which measuring FFR though femoral veins (y=0.945x+0.0043, R2=0.904, P=0.001). Compared with ATP infusion by femoral vein[from (53.7±15.8) s to (58.2±11.6) s], the time to FFR by infusion ATP measurement by hand dosal veins was longer[(48.7±17.9) s, P=0.015]. Conclusions The FFR measurement through ATP infusion at hand dosal veins has similar results with the FFR measured by femoral veins ATP infusion.

Objective:To establish the quality standard for Tangzhixiao capsules. Methods: The qualitative identification of Salvia miltiorrhiza,Atractylodes and Hawthorn was detected by TLC, and the quantitative determination of salvianolic acid B was determined by HPLC. The HPLC determination was performed on a YMC-Triart C18 (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5μm ) column with the mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0. 1% phosphoric acid (24∶ 76) at the flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1 , the column temperature was 30℃ and the detection wavelength was set at 286 nm. Results: The TLC spots were fairly clear, and the negative samples showed no interference. The concentration of salvianolic acid B within the range of 0. 012-0. 120 mg·ml -1 was linear with peak area(r = 0. 999 5), the average recovery was 100. 06% and RSD was 0. 83%(n = 6). Conclusion: The method is accurate, reliable and reproducible, which can be used in the quality control of Tangzhixiao capsules.

AIM: To observe the inhibitory effects of polypeptide from Buthus martensii venom (PBMV) on human tumor cell lines and the influence of PBMV on cell cycle migration, expression of tumor-suppressor gene p53 and the membrane potential of CNE-2Z cells. METHODS: MTT colorimetric method, the colony formation and mitosis index, flow cytometry assay and intracellular recording with glass microelectrodes were used. RESULTS: PBMV had obvious cytotoxicity on several tumor cell lines. The cells grow was inhibited by PBMV, colony formation rate and mitotic index of tumor cells were reduced and the number of polykaryocyte was decreased. CNE-2Z cells in S phase were reduced evidently after they were treated with PBMV (P
