ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the regulatory effects of Xuanfu Daizhetang on a mouse model of allergic asthma induced by ovalbumin （OVA）. MethodSixty female BALB/c mice （6-8 weeks old， SPF） were randomly divided into groups. Ten mice were assigned to the normal group and given 0.2 mL of saline， while the remaining groups received intraperitoneal injections of Al（OH）3 at 5 g·L-1 and OVA at 1 g·L-1. The mice were divided into normal group （10 mL·kg-1 saline）， OVA model group （10 mL·kg-1 saline）， dexamethasone group （OVA+DEX， 1 mg·kg-1）， OVA+ low-dose Xuanfu Daizhetang group （OVA+XL， 7.065 g·kg-1）， OVA+ medium-dose Xuanfu Daizhetang group （OVA+XM， 14.13 g·kg-1）， and OVA+ high-dose Xuanfu Daizhetang group （OVA+XH， 28.26 g·kg-1）. An OVA-induced asthma model was established in mice. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining methods were used to observe bronchial tissue pathological changes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was performed to measure the levels of immunoglobulin E （IgE）， interleukin-4 （IL-4）， IL-5， IL-13， IL-17A， and γ interferon （IFN-γ） in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Western blot was used to detect the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase （ERK）， p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， and c-Jun N-terminal kinase （JNK） proteins in lung tissue. ResultCompared with the normal group， the OVA model group showed increased inflammatory cell infiltration in mouse alveoli， elevated levels of IL-4， IL-5， IL-13， IL-17A， IFN-γ in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid， and IgE in serum （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and promoted phosphorylation of MAPK signaling pathway-related proteins. Compared with the model group， the OVA+XL， OVA+XM， and OVA+XH groups showed reduced inflammatory cell infiltration in mouse alveoli， decreased levels of IL-4， IL-5， IL-13， IL-17A， IFN-γ in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid， and IgE in serum （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and inhibited phosphorylation of MAPK signaling pathway-related proteins. ConclusionThe results of this study suggest that Xuanfu Daizhetang has potential anti-allergic asthma activity， providing a theoretical basis for its future clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the causes for the biological monitoring abnormal results of the pressure steam sterilizer to eliminate non-standard operation and hidden risks during biological monitoring.Methods Totally 34 secondary or above medical institutions in Chongqing were selected randomly,and questionnaire survey was carried out over biological monitoring abnormal results and main influencing factors of the pressure steam sterilizer.Results Of the 126 abnormal results,there were 63 positive results (accounting for 50％) and the main influencing factors included expiration,aged seal ring,low-efficiency vacuum pump,nonstandard loading,bioindicator reproduction before sterilization,false positive result,polluted moist incubator and etc;There were 35 cases of results related to fast reader (accounting for 27.78％) and the main factors consisted of failure of reading light,improper input of bioindicator,dusts in the reading hole and etc;There were 18 cases of bioindicator discoloration before culture (accounting for 14.28％) and the main factor was reproduction occurred before the gemma was inactivated;There were l0 cases of nondiscoloring in case of positive control (accounting for 7.94％) and the main factors included non-crushed indicating mediostratum cultured in the incubator,insufficient shaking after crushing mediostratum and etc.Conclusion The main factors for abnormal biological monitoring of the sterilizer involve in equipment,personnel and material,and the quality control has to be executed from the three aspects.
ABSTRACT
Objective The study aimed to evaluate the application effect of clinical pathways in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients by using the meta-analysis.Methods Published randomized controlled trials (RCT) about laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients were searched and screened in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),China Scientific Journal Database by VIP,Wanfang Database under present standards.The quality of the included studies was evaluated by certain standards.The Review Manager 5.2 software was used for analysis.Results Totally 29 studies including 5 570 cases were eligible to the criteria (2 753 in the experimental group and 2 853 in the control group) altogether.The meta-analysis showed that the hospitalization time and hospitalization costs in the clinical nursing pathway group were significantly less than those of the control group (SMD=-1.69 and-3.75),the satisfaction degree and the mastering of health knowledge in the clinical nursing pathway group were significantly higher than those of the control group (RR=1.16 and 1.26),the differece had statistical significance.Conclusions Application effect of clinical nursing pathways is superior to the traditional nursing method in laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients.
