ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To understand the current status of medical staff’s awareness of hospital infection prevention and control during the epidemic of COVID-19 in Shaanxi Province and analyze its influencing factors. 【Methods】 The questionnaire was designed on the "Questionnaire Star" website. Based on the WeChat platform, a voluntary sampling method was used to invite online questionnaires. From March 13 to 29, we collected a total of 8037 questionnaires, 30 of which did not meet the requirements and had logical problems, and finally 8 007 valid questionnaires were obtained. 【Results】 A total of 8 007 medical staff were surveyed. Among them, Medical staff of Grade 3A, Grade 3B, Grade 2A, and Grade 2B hospital accounted for 39.6%, 2.3%, 55.3%, and 2.6%, respectively. The average age of the respondents was (32.1±7.2) years old, including 7 199 nurses and 501 doctors. The training effect was statistically significant in different regions, different hospital levels, whether it was a designated hospital and whether there were sensor control supervisors, as well as medical staff of different specialty, professional title, and work area (all P<0.01). The basic cognitive situation of the surveyed subjects showed that most medical staff in Shaanxi Province had a correct rate of less than 30% in whether they needed to disinfect before de-protection and how to disinfect the hospital environment. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the cognition level of medical staff in Grade A hospitals was significantly lower than that in Grade A hospitals (P<0.01). The cognition level of medical staff in designated hospitals was significantly higher than that of others (P<0.01). The cognition level of medical staff in hospitals with sensory control supervisors was significantly higher than that of others (P<0.01). The cognition level of people aged 25-34 and 35-44 was significantly lower than those aged 45 and above (all P<0.01). The cognition level of medical technicians and service personnel was significantly lower than that of doctors (P=0.02 and <0.01, respectively). The cognition level of medical staff with intermediate, associate senior, and senior professional titles was significantly higher than the cognition level of those with junior and below professional titles (all P<0.01). The cognition level of medical staff in fever clinics, emergency departments, isolation wards, ICU and other surgeries was significantly higher than that of those working in ordinary outpatient department (P=0.01, 0.03, <0.01, 0.02, and <0.01 respectively). 【Conclusion】 Most medical staff in Shaanxi Province have misunderstandings about whether they need to disinfect before de-protection and how to disinfect the hospital environment. Moreover, we found that the awareness of medical staff in Shaanxi Province of hospital infection prevention and control during the epidemic of COVID-19 was affected by the hospital’s level, whether it was a designated hospital, whether there were sensor control supervisors, as well as the age, specialty, professional title and work area of the medical staff.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the characteristics of papers published in Organ Transplantation in the past ten years. Methods The academic papers published in Organ Transplantation from January 2010 to December 2019 were retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). The publication volume, the funded paper ratio, authors, research institutions and keywords were analyzed by information visualization software CiteSpace 5.3 and VOSviewer 1.6. Results From 2010 to 2019, a total of 919 academic papers were published in Organ Transplantation, with an average annual publication volume of 92, showing an overall stable trend. The funded paper ratio and the ratio of papers with funding support at the provincial level or above increased year by year, reaching 100% in 2019. High-yield authors mainly formed two research teams led by Shi Bingyi and Chen Guihua respectively. The first authors were distributed across China. In recent years, as many as 58 programmatic papers were published by national academic institutions, especially signed by Branch of Organ Transplantation of Chinese Medical Association. The average number of authors per paper was 4.94 in Organ Transplantation, and the proportion of papers contributed by two or more authors remained above 90% in recent years. According to the analysis of research institutions, the average number of institutions per paper was 1.60 in Organ Transplantation. Keyword co-occurrence network analysis demonstrated that liver transplantation, renal transplantation and organ transplantation were the research hotspots in the field of organ transplantation. Keyword cluster analysis showed that research mainly focused on 9 fields, such as liver transplantation, renal transplantation, organ transplantation, organ donation, posttransplantation complications, transplantation immunity, end-stage liver disease, xenotransplantation and stem cell transplantation. Keyword burst analysis showed that xenotransplantation, α-1, 3-galactose, transplantation immunity, apoptosis, donor specific antibody (DSA), antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and flow cytometry were the research hotspots. Conclusions The authors that publish academic papers in Organ Transplantation come from major transplantation centers all over the country. The papers of Organ Transplantation cover the research hotspots of each branch in the field of organ transplantation, and include a large quantity of programmatic papers signed and published by national academic institutions, which show the frontier hotspots and the highest level of research in the field of organ transplantation in China, making Organ Transplantation an excellent academic journal.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of Rapamycin and mammalian target of rapamycin - small in-terfering RNA (mTOR siRNA)on the proliferation,apoptosis and collagen Ⅰ(COLⅠ),collagen Ⅲ(COLⅢ)and fi-bronectin(FN)in premature rats lung fibroblasts exposed to hyperoxia. Methods 900 mL/ L volume fraction of oxygen was used to establish hyperoxia - damaged cell models,and the premature rats lung fibroblasts were divided into air control group,hyperoxia group,hyperoxia + rapamycin group and mammalian target of rapamycin - small interfering RNA transfection group. Cell proliferation was assessed by using 3 -(4,5 - Dimethylthiazol - 2 - yl)- 2,5 - dipheny-ltetrazolium bromide assay. Apoptosis were detected by Annexin V - FITC and propidium lodide (PI)double staining. The expressions of COLⅠ,COLⅢ and fibronectin was assessed by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and Bcl - 2,P53 and pro - fibrotic factors of connective tissue growth factor(CTGF)and transforming growth factor β(TGF - β)by using Western blot. Results Compared with the air control group,the proliferation of lung fibroblasts decreased and the apoptosis increased in the hyperoxia group,while the contents of COLⅠ(28. 30 ± 0. 53 vs. 17. 43 ±0. 37),COLⅢ(27. 86 ± 1. 02 vs. 17. 43 ± 0. 37)and fibronectin(32. 87 ± 0. 42 vs. 21. 57 ± 0. 47),P53(0. 810 ± 0. 119 vs. 0. 160 ± 0. 018),TGF - β(0. 580 ± 0. 108 vs. 0. 210 ± 0. 008)and CTGF(0. 590 ± 0. 017 vs. 0. 220 ± 0. 007)were also increased but the expression of Bcl - 2(0. 150 ± 0. 004 vs. 0. 600 ± 0. 130)protein was decreased, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0. 01). Compared with the hyperoxia group,the proliferation of lung fibroblasts was increased in the hyperoxia + rapamycin group,but the apoptosis was decreased,the contents of COLⅠ(23. 17 ± 0. 60 vs. 28. 30 ± 0. 53),COLⅢ(17. 09 ± 0. 58 vs. 27. 86 ± 1. 02)and fibronectin(28. 11 ± 0. 68 vs. 32. 87 ± 0. 42),P53(0. 430 ± 0. 008 vs. 0. 810 ± 0. 119),TGF - β(0. 380 ± 0. 008 vs. 0. 580 ± 0. 108)and CTGF (0. 040 ± 0. 006 vs. 0. 590 ± 0. 017)were decreased while the expression of Bcl - 2(0. 290 ± 0. 009 vs. 0. 150 ± 0. 004) protein was increased,and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0. 01). In the mTOR siRNA transfec-tion group,compared with the hyperoxia + rapamycin group,the proliferation of lung fibroblasts was increased,but the apoptosis was decreased;the contents of COLⅠ(15. 71 ± 0. 34 vs. 23. 17 ± 0. 60),COLⅢ (13. 85 ± 1. 36 vs. 17. 09 ± 0. 58)and fibronectin(20. 18 ± 0. 28 vs. 28. 11 ± 0. 68),P53(0. 300 ± 0. 006 vs. 0. 430 ± 0. 008),TGF - β(0. 150 ± 0. 002 vs. 0. 380 ± 0. 008)and CTGF(0. 140 ± 0. 004 vs. 0. 040 ± 0. 006)were decreased while the expression of Bcl - 2 (0. 460 ± 0. 012 vs. 10. 290 ± 0. 009)protein was increased,and the differences were all statistically significant (all P < 0. 01). Conclusion Rapamycin and mTOR siRNA can protect lung injury caused by hyperoxia and have a certain inhibitory effect on pulmonary fibrosis,and mTOR siRNA effect is more obvious,so the mechanism may be through the inhibition of mTOR signaling pathway.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the changes of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β),connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and collagen 1 (COL1) in newborn rat's lung tissue and the expressions of 4EBP1 (eukaryotic promoter) and P7OS6K (mammalian target of rapamyein pathway downstream target protein) after rapamycin and hyperoxia intervention,and to study the influence of mammalian target of rapamyein (mTOR) pathway on hyperoxic lung injury and the possible intervention methods.Method A total of 48 21-day-old neonatal rats were assigned into 8 groups (n =6),including air control group,3 d group (3 days after hyperoxic exposure),7 d group (7 days after hyperoxic exposure),14 d group (14 days after hyperoxic exposure),air + RAPA group (air + rapamycin),3 d + RAPA group (3 days after hyperoxic exposure + rapamycin),7 d + RAPA group (7 days after hyperoxic exposure + rapamycin) and 14 d + RAPA group (14 days after hyperoxic exposure + rapamycin).In the hyperoxic group,newborn rats were exposed to 90％ oxygen for 3,7,14 days respectively.The rats in the hyperoxia + rapamycin intervention groups received intraperitoneal injection of rapamycin and inhaled high concentrations of oxygen for 3,7,14 days respectively.Air ± rapamycin group received intraperitoneal injection of rapamycin for 3 days.To study the pathological changes of lung tissures after hyperoxia and rapamycin intervention,we used ELISA to detect the changes of TGF-β,CTGF and COL1 and Western blot to detect the variations of mTORC1,P70S6K and 4EBP1 expression.Result TGF-β,CTGF,COL1 levels at 3 days,7 days and 14 days after hyperoxic exposure (TGF-[β:33.7±2.8 vs.58.6 ±3.1 vs.98.8 ±1.5 ng/mg,CTGF:50.1 ±1.8 vs.68.7 ± 2.2 vs.94.4 ±2.5 ng/mg,COL1:471.9 ±5.7 vs.529.7 ±7.0 vs.556.4 ±8.5 ng/mg) were significantly higher than the air control group (TGF-β:25.5 ± 1.9 ng/mg,CTGF:41.7 ± 1.4 ng/mg,COL1:414.4 ± 8.9 ng/mg) (P ＜ 0.01).While the levels in rapamycin intervention group were significantly lower than all the hyperoxia + rapamycin intervention groups (P ＜ 0.01).The lung tissue pathological grades in 3 d + RAPA group and 7 d + RAPAgroup were significantly lower than those in the 3 d group and 7 d group (3.5 ± 0.8 vs.6.3 ± 2.3 and 9.7 ± 2.0 vs.14.0 ± 2.4) (P ＜ 0.01).The mTORC1,P70S6K,4EBP1 expressions in 3 d + RAPA group were lower than 3 d group (mTORC1:0.26 ± 0.04 vs.0.29±0.08,P70S6K:0.29±0.01 vs.0.31 ±0.08,4EBP1:0.31 ±0.06 vs.0.33 ±0.06) (P＜0.05),while the expressions in 7 d + RAPA and 14 d + RAPA groups were significantly lower than 3 d + RAPAgroup (P ＜0.01).Conclusion mTOR signal pathway may be involved in the repairing process of hyperoxic-induced lung fibrosis.Rapamycin can reduce the levels of TGF-β,CTGF and COL1 and inhibit the expressions of mTOR pathway downstream target protein P70S6K and 4EBP1,thus reduce lung injury atearly stage.
