Investigation and demand analysis of training status of emergency personnel in primary hospitals in Sichuan Province / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective To get well-informed of the current status of emergency training in primary hospitals in Sichuan Province and to find weaknesses in the system in order to provide scientific basis for emergency knowledge and skills training.Methods A stratified random cluster sampling method as adopted and an anonymous questionnaire survey method was conducted to investigate the basic circumstances of the current training and the training needs of 1 000 emergency medical staff in 9 regions throughout Sichuan Province.Results The scope of the survey covered emergency doctors,nurses and technicians in hospitals of Grade Ⅱ,Grade Ⅲ and below.A total of 1 000 surveys were sent out and 983 were recovered.The questionnaire completion rate was 98.3％.The respondents mainly worked for more than 10 years,most of which with Bachelor degree,junior and intermediate titles.Results of the survey showed,63.1％ Most respondents have only one or two training opportunities per year.The training methods are mainly continuing education (59.0％,580 trips),training organized within the unit (58.5％,575 trips),and training organized by health administrative units (39.3％,386 trips).The main contents of the training are:basic professional skills learning (66.7％,655 trips),basic professional theoretical study (59.2％,582 trips),and new emergency technology (42.5％,418 trips),only 32.0％ of the respondents believe that these methods meet the practical needs.The main factors that influence participation in the training were:not be arranged by employer (36.2％,356 trips);the training was different from actual work (31.6％,311 trips);no replacement for work so they couldn't join training (29.8％,293 trips).The survey showed that the most desirable way of training is:practical application (60.1％,591 trips) and the most desirable training content is:emergency first aid knowledge (73.7％,724 trips).There were significant differences in case discussion,technical observation,academic lectures,special study trainingand learning methods in hospitals of different levels (P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in the choice of professional practice methods (P＞0.05),and the selection of training contents was in emergency first aid knowledge,general medical knowledge and prevention and treatment of chronic diseases.There was no statistical difference in the selection of training contents of knowledge,infectious disease knowledge and department management knowledge (P＞0.05).There were significant differences in the choice of nursing knowledge training (P＜0.05).Conclusion The current situation showed a lack of first-aid knowledge and skills training for emergency personnel in Sichuan Province.The present situation of skill training can't satisfy the need of their desire to participate in training.It is urgent to develop a standardized,systematic and scientific training mode to improve the emergency first aid ability of primary medical and emergency personnel.

Transcriptomic microarray profiling of peripheral CD4+ T cells from asthmatic patients / 中华医学遗传学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To identify differentially expressed genes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells between patients with continuous mild-to-moderate asthma and healthy controls using mRNA microarray in order to explore the underlying signaling pathways and clarify the roles of CD4+ T cells in the pathogenesis of asthma.@*METHODS@#Global transcriptomic profiles of the CD4+ T cells were defined by using Agilent Sure Print G3 Human GE 8×60K microarray. Enrichment pathways were analyzed with Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) software.@*RESULTS@#Compared with controls, 805 genes were up-regulated, 192 were down-regulated in asthma patients. Among these, the expression of 38 annotated genes have varied by 4 times or more. Expression of CD300A was inversely proportional to the absolute value of eosinophils (r=-0.89, P=0.02) as well as the proportion of eosinophils (r=-0.94, P=0.004), while CSF1R was inversely proportional to PD20 (r=-0.83, P=0.04) and AQLQ (r=-0.88, P=0.02) by correlation analysis.@*CONCLUSION@#Numerous pathophysiological pathways may be involved in the pathogenesis of asthma. Above findings have provided a basis for the delineation the pathogenesis of asthma.

Effects of montmorillonite and mannitol on early pulmonary fibrosis in rats with acute paraquat poisoning / 重庆医学

Objective To observe the intervene effects of montmorillonite powder and mannitol on rat with acute paraquat poi-soning by intragastric administration .Methods 40 male SD rats were divided into four groups randomly ,control group(C) ,pa-raquat group(P) ,PT1 groups were treated with montmorillonite powder and mannitol gavage after paraquat exposure one hour ,PT2 group was treated after paraquat exposure four hours .P ,PT1 ,and PT2 groups were exposed to paraquat 50 mg/kg .one and four hour later ,PT1 and PT2 group rats were given 7 g/kg montmorillonite-mannitol solution respectively ,C group and P group with sa-line instead .then to observe general state in rats .Give rats run training before and after intragastric administration ,comparison the fall times from the treadmill among groups before and 5 ,10 ,15 days after administration ,rats were killed in 15 th days exposed pa-raquat ,collect their lung tissue ,hydroxyproline content were measured in lung tissue of rat by alkaline hydrolysis ,observe the path-ological changes by HE staining in rat lungs .Results the general condition were poor in P ,PT1 and PT2 group rats .And those mean food intakes were significantly lower than the control group (P0 .05) ,but P group′s fall times increased significantly than the others group′s at 15 th day after exposed(P< 0 .05) .the all group rat lung tissue hydroxyproline overall difference significant(P<0 .01) ,from the two-two compared results ,three paraquat exposed groups higher than control group ,and P group also higher than PT1 and PT2 group(P<0 .05) .From the lung tissue slices ,P ,PT1 and PT2 group showed significant pul-monary fibrosis than C group ,and the P group′s was the most severe .Conclusion Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis may be alleviated by early use of montmorillonite powder and mannitol on paraquat poisoning rats .

The prediction role of interleukin-18 and vascular endothelial growth factor in the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome development / 中国医师杂志

Objective To determine the role of interleukin-18(IL-18) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the ovari-an hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) development. Methods Serum and follicular IL-18 and VEGF levels were measured with ELISA in 66 IVF patients, who were divided into three study groups according to OHSS risk factors on the day of ovum retrieval and whether will devel-op OHSS in future or not. 20 patients had no OHSS risk factors (normal group), 28 patients had OHSS risk factors without developing OHSS (OHSS risk group) and 18 patients had OHSS risk factors and developing OHSS in future (OHSS group). Results Serum and follicular IL-18 levels in OHSS group were significantly higher than those of other two groups(P<0.01). Serum and follicular VEGF levels in OHSS group were also significantly higher than those of other two groups(P<0.01). Conclusion Serum and follicular IL-18 and VEGF levels in OHSS group increased significantly, which suggested IL-18 and VEGF were positive correlated with OHSS development. And follicular IL-18 and VEGF levels in serum on the day of ovum retrieval have a prediction role in OHSS development.

The levels of serum anti-müllerian hormone in women with premature ovarian failure and its clinical significance / 中国医师杂志

Objective To observe the changes of serum anti-mttllerian hormone (AMH) level in women with premature ovarian fail-ure (POF) and its clinical significance. Methods Fasting serum levels of AMH in 25 POF patients were measured with enzyme-linked im-mtmosorbent assay (ELISA). Twenty healthy women matched for age and body mass index (BMI) were chosen as controls. Results The serum AMH level in POF group was (1.1±0.1) pmol/L, which was significantly lower than that of control group(P < 0.01). The serum AMH levels in 20 patients of POF group were undetectable. The other 5 patients were treated with artificial cycle at first, and then ovulated with hMG/HCG.2 patients had ovulation and 1 patient was pregnant. Conclusion The serum AMH level in POF patients was significantly decreased, and the measure for serum AMH had some significance for POF diagnosis and treatment.
