ObjectiveTo investigate the regulatory effect of Danggui Shaoyaosan on adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）/Unc-51-like kinase-1 （ULK1） signaling pathway in the rat model of metabolism-associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD）. MethodSixty SD rats were randomized into control， model， western medicine （polyene phosphatidylcholine capsules，0.144 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.44， 4.88， 9.76 g·kg^-1， respectively） Danggui Shaoyaosan groups. After being fed with a high-fat diet for 8 weeks， the rats in each group were administrated with corresponding drugs for 4 weeks. At the end of drug treatment， serum and liver tissue were collected for subsequent determination of related indicators. ResultCompared with the control group， the model group showed increased contents of total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） and activities of alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） in the serum， increased contents of TC， TG， and free fatty acids （FFAs） in the liver （P<0.01）， and decreased content of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） in the serum （P<0.01）. Furthermore， the model group showed down-regulated protein levels of p-AMPK， microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B （LC3B） Ⅱ， Beclin1， and ULK1 （P<0.01） and up-regulated protein levels of p-mTOR and ubiquitin-binding protein p62 in the liver （P<0.01）. The hepatic steatosis was obvious and the NAFLD activity score （NAS） and oil red O staining area increased in the model group， （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Danggui Shaoyaosan reduced the contents of TC and TG and the activities of ALT and AST in the serum， lowered the levels of TC， TG， and FFA in the liver， down-regulated the protein levels of p-mTOR and p62 （P<0.01）， elevated the serum HDL-C level， and up-regulated the protein levels of p-AMPK， LCBⅡ， Beclin1， and ULK1 in the liver （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Moreover， it alleviated hepatic steatosis and decreased the NAS and oil red O staining area （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionDanggui Shaoyaosan has therapeutic effect on MAFLD rats by regulating AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 signaling pathway to enhance autophagy.

Objective To study the corrosion-fatigue properties of a novel low modulus Ti-3Zr-2Sn-3Mo-25Nb(TLM)titanium alloy subjected to simulated body fluid(SBF).Methods Ti-6Al-4V(TC4)alloy was used as the control group.The electrochemical corrosion polarization curves of the two titanium alloys were measured in SBF.The pre-corroded TC4 and TLM titanium alloy samples were subjected to rotational bending fatigue tests.The loading stress amplitude and fatigue fracture cycle relationship was established using the experimental data,and the stress life curves were drawn.Subsequently,the fracture mechanism was analyzed by analyzing the corrosion fatigue micro-fracture morphology of the sample,and fatigue analysis on the titanium alloy sample was then conducted combined with the finite element software.Results The self-corrosion potential of the TC4 titanium alloy under stress annealing was lower than that of the TLM titanium alloy after heat treatment.The TLM titanium alloy was most sensitive to changes in cyclic stress.A comparison between the simulation and experimental results showed that the TC4 titanium alloy under stress annealing had a higher fatigue strength and stronger resistance to crack propagation than the TLM titanium alloy did after heat treatment,whereas its corrosion resistance was the opposite.Compared to the specimens without pre-corrosion treatment,the brittleness of the TLM titanium alloy increased,and its fatigue performance decreased after pre-immersion in SBF.Conclusions Through comparative analysis,the reliability of the test results proved to be high,and the COMSOL finite element software could effectively predict the fatigue life of titanium alloy materials.

Objective:To understand the sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies, and analyze the correlation between them.Methods:A total of 128 first-line nursing staff participating in public health emergencies on February 22-23, 2020 in Tianjin Beichen Hospital, Tianjin First Central Hospital, Tianjin Fourth Central Hospital were investigated by the general data questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90).Results:70.3%(90/128) of nursing staff had poor sleep quality, and the total score of PSQI was (9.71±4.01) points, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ( t value was 16.479, P<0.01). The total score of SCL-90 was 1.59±0.52, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ratio ( t value was 4.505, P<0.01). One-way ANOVA showed that the nursing staff's age had a significant impact on sleep quality, and the difference was statistically significant ( F value was 4.092, P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the Pittsburgh sleep quality scale index scores and symptom self-assessment scale and somatization, force, sensitive interpersonal relationship, depression, anxiety, hostile, terrorist, paranoia, and psychosis were positively correlated( r values were 0.292-0.444, P< 0.01). Conclusions:The sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies are poor, and the sleep quality is correlated with mental health status.

Random sampling was used to select 109 public hospitals as pilots, and a questionnaire was customized from March to April in 2019, to investigate the current budget management and problems, with the data studied by descriptive statistical analysis.Results:Seventy-seven hospitals (70.64%) reported in self-appraisal their budget management as satisfactory and above, 78 hospitals (71.56%) had in place a comprehensive budget management system, 90 hospitals(82.57%) had in place a budget management committee, and 91 hospitals (83.49%) had in place refined budget preparation. The main problems were unclear budgeting requirements and nonstandard process, poor information integration and informationization, inadequate inter-department synergy, and poor alignment between business and finance.Conclusions:The public hospitals are recommended to enhance their comprehensive budget management system and their informationization, for full-process informationized management.

As a low-load physiological monitoring technology, wearable devices can provide new methods for monitoring, evaluating and managing chronic diseases, which is a direction for the future development of monitoring technology. However, as a new type of monitoring technology, its clinical application mode and value are still unclear and need to be further explored. In this study, a central monitoring system based on wearable devices was built in the general ward (non-ICU ward) of PLA General Hospital, the value points of clinical application of wearable physiological monitoring technology were analyzed, and the system was combined with the treatment process and applied to clinical monitoring. The system is able to effectively collect data such as electrocardiogram, respiration, blood oxygen, pulse rate, and body position/movement to achieve real-time monitoring, prediction and early warning, and condition assessment. And since its operation from March 2018, 1 268 people (657 patients) have undergone wearable continuous physiological monitoring until January 2020, with data from a total of 1 198 people (632 cases) screened for signals through signal quality algorithms and manual interpretation were available for analysis, accounting for 94.48 % (96.19%) of the total. Through continuous physiological data analysis and manual correction, sleep apnea event, nocturnal hypoxemia, tachycardia, and ventricular premature beats were detected in 232 (36.65%), 58 (9.16%), 30 (4.74%), and 42 (6.64%) of the total patients, while the number of these abnormal events recorded in the archives was 4 (0.63%), 0 (0.00%), 24 (3.80%), and 15 (2.37%) cases. The statistical analysis of sleep apnea event outcomes revealed that patients with chronic diseases were more likely to have sleep apnea events than healthy individuals, and the incidence was higher in men (62.93%) than in women (37.07%). The results indicate that wearable physiological monitoring technology can provide a new monitoring mode for inpatients, capturing more abnormal events and provide richer information for clinical diagnosis and treatment through continuous physiological parameter analysis, and can be effectively integrated into existing medical processes. We will continue to explore the applicability of this new monitoring mode in different clinical scenarios to further enrich the clinical application of wearable technology and provide richer tools and methods for the monitoring, evaluation and management of chronic diseases.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of S-1 combined with oxaliplatin (SOX regimen) in treatment of the patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods A total of 106 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer in Qingdao Fuwai Hospital from April 2015 to June 2017 were randomly divided into the treatment group (53 cases) and the control group (53 cases) according to the random number table method. Patients in the control group were treated with S-1 combined with cisplatin treatment, and patients in the treatment group were treated with SOX regimen. The cell proportion of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+and CD4+/CD8+before treatment and after 2 cycles of treatment were detected by using flow cytometry of both groups. The clinical curative effects, immunity and adverse reactions of both groups were compared by usingχ2 test and t test. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make the survival analysis. Results After two cycles of treatment, there were 4 cases of complete remission (CR), 23 cases of partial remission (PR), 17 cases of stable disease (SD), 9 cases of progression disease (PD) in the treatment group, and 0 case of CR, 18 cases of PR, 20 cases of SD, 15 cases of PD in the control group. The rate of CR+PR in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group [50.94％(27/53) vs. 33.96％(18/53)], and there was a statistical difference (χ2=5.936, P<0.05). There was a significant difference in the cell proportion of CD4+and ratio of CD4+/CD8+between the two groups before and after treatment [the treatment group: (27.31±2.48)％ vs. (37.05±2.53)％, χ2= 6.491,P< 0.01; 0.91 ±0.23 vs. 1.53 ±0.50, χ2 = 5.913, P< 0.01; the control group: (27.43 ±2.47)％ vs. (30.32 ± 2.41)％,χ2= 11.214, P<0.01; 0.90±0.22 vs. 1.22±0.34,χ2=7.992, P<0.01]. After 2 cycles of treatment, the cell proportion of CD4+and ratio of CD4+/CD8+of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group, and there were statistical differences (χ2=5.309, P<0.01;χ2= 7.112, P< 0.01). The incidence rate of side effects had no significant difference in both groups after two cycles of treatment [22.64％ (12/53) vs. 18.87％ (10/53), χ2= 1.924, P> 0.05]. The progression-free survival time in the treatment group was longer than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions SOX regimen has a favorable effect on the patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. It can help to improve the immunity and prolong the survival time of the patients.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy of the lymph node dissection patterns of the reverse and the traditional cabbage in hand-assisted laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy (HALG).

METHODSFrom December 2010 to October 2013, 194 patients with HALG in Chengdu Military General Hospital were enrolled in this study. According to the pattern of lymph node dissection, 108 patients were performed with the reverse procedure which took spleen as starting point, from left to right, and 86 patients were performed with the traditional cabbage procedure which took the abdominal cavity as the center, from both sides to middle. A retrospective comparative analysis was made on the intra- and post-operative data between the two groups.

RESULTSAll the patients were successfully performed with HALG, and no peri-operative death occurred. There were no significant differences in the incision length [(7.0 ± 0.2) cm vs. (6.9 ± 0.3) cm], the operative time [(170.9 ± 33.8) minute vs. (174.6 ± 22.4) minute], dissected lymph node number (17.6 ± 7.5 vs. 17.1 ± 5.8) and post-operative complications [(6.5%(7/108) vs. 8.1%(7/86)] between the reverse group and cabbage group (all P>0.05). However, less blood loss [(204.6 ± 98.2) ml vs. (259.1 ± 122.6) ml, P<0.01] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(9.0 ± 1.7) day vs. (10.5 ± 4.0) day, P<0.01] were observed in reverse group as compared to cabbage group. During 1 to 6 months follow-up, no death case was found in reverse group, while 1 case died due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding 48 days after operation in cabbage group.

CONCLUSIONEfficacy is similar between the two HALG procedures in lymph node dissection, while reverse procedure has certain advantages, such as less blood loss and faster recovery.

The minimal inhibitory concentration ( MIC) of antibacterial agents was determined by agar dilution method. A retrospective study was conducted on rates of resistance to antimicrobial agents. The prevalence of penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae ( PRSP) between children and adult patients and the prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) between elder group and younger adult patients were compared using chi-square test. Results The prevalence of PRSP in children below 3 years old ( 72. 9%, 51/70 ) was higher than adult patients (55. 2%, 106/192) (χ2 =6. 653,P<0. 05). About 94. 9%(261/275) and (92. 7%,255/275) of S. pneumonia were resistant to erythromycin and clindamycin. All S. pneumoniae strains were susceptible to teicoplanin, vancomycin, linezolid, tigecycline and daptomycin. Penicillin still showed very high activity against Streptococcus spp. β-Hemolytic group. More than 60% of Streptococcus spp.β-Hemolytic group were resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin and tetracyclines. The prevalence of MRSA and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci(MRCoNS) was 39. 7%(229/576) and 80. 6%(224/278), respectively. The MRSA prevalence ranged from 24. 2% to 70. 0% in different regions. About 52. 6%( 100/190 ) of Staphylococcus aureus from respiratory tract specimens, 38. 5%(40/104)of Staphylococcus aureus from blood samples, and 29. 7%(58/195) of Staphylococcus aureus from wound and pus were resistant to methicillin. The prevalence of MRSA in elder group ( 48. 6%, 84/173 ) was higher than that in younger adult patients (35. 7%, 144/403)(χ2 =8. 322,P <0. 05). The susceptibility rates of MRSA to chloramphenicol and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole were 86. 4% ( 244/228 ) and 94. 7% ( 237/228 ) , respectively. Susceptibility rates to gentamycin, erythromycin, clindamycin, tetracyclines, rifampicin and quinolones were ranged from 15. 8% to 59. 6%. All Staphylococci isolates were susceptible to teicoplanin, vancomycin, linezolid, daptomycin and tigecycline. All Enterococcus isolates were susceptible to daptomycin and tigecycline. All E. faecalis ( 158/158 ) and 96. 4% ( 133/138 ) of E. faecium were susceptible to teicoplanin. About 98. 0% ( 150/153 ) of E. faecalis and 97. 1% ( 145/138 ) of E. faecium were susceptible to linezoild. About 45. 8% (70/153) of E. faecalis and 60. 9% (84/138) of E. faecium were resistant to gentamycin with a high concentration. The susceptibility of E. faecalis to all the antibiotics tested exceptchloramphenicolandtetracyclinewashigherthanthatofE.faecium.Conclusions Basedon different age groups and regions, the resistance rates of Gram-positive cocci are different.
