ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of AG490 on the apoptosis of pancreatic acinar cells and expression of apoptosis gene FasL and Bcl-2 in rat model of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Seventy-two healthy Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group (n=24), SAP group (n=24) and AG490 group (n=24). Heart blood samples were taken to detect serum amylase at 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after operation in three groups. Pancreatic tissue were observed under light microscope to analyze pathological changes and pathological scores. The index of pancreatic acinar cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL. The expressions of FasL and Bcl-2 mRNA in pancreatic tissue was detected by RT-PCR. Results Compared with control group, the damage of pancreatic tissue was gradually increased, the serum level of amylase significantly increased (P＜0.01), the index of pancreatic acinar cell apoptosis increased, the expression of FasL mRNA was significantly increased, the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA was significantly decreased (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01) in SAP group. Compared with SAP group, the pancreatic injury was improved significantly, the serum amylase significantly decreased ( P＜0.01), the apoptosis index rate of pancreatic acinar cells was increased, the expression of FasL mRNA was significantly increased, and the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA was significantly decreased (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01) in AG490 group. Conclusion The inhibition of the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway may regulate the apoptosis-related gene to increase the apoptosis of pancreatic acinar cells, thereby reducing the reaction and pathological damages of acute pancreatitis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To better understand the knowledge, attitude, practice status of sexual dysfunction (SD) in medical staffs in field of reproductive health in Tianjin. Methods Using random, stratified and clustered sampling ap-proach, we selected 507 medical staffs in field of reproductive healthcare in Tianjin. Self-administered questionnaire on sex-ual dysfunction KAP was employed to survey the general condition, to understand SD knowledge and their attitude to SD, to perceive SD prevalence of the medical staffs and their demand to sexual dysfunction training. Results The people who re-spond to our survey had high awareness to SD, but they are lack of knowlege in mechanism on sexual behavior and female SD related knowledge. Multiple-factor analysis indicated that young age group respondants(β=-0.827,P=0.018)and medical staffs from high-tier medical institutions (β=-0.223, P=0.048) showed higher awareness. When they suffered SD, 49.28%re-spondants would see doctor immediately, 36.85% informants chosen temporary observation, and 9.73% informants shown negative altitude. Minority (17.14%) of medical staff are able to confirmed SD to themselves and 90.48% of medical staff de-mand training on SD related knowledge. Conclusion It’s necessary to perform continuing education to medical staffs via different intervention, so as to improve their cognitive level and attitude to SD, and these can help them providing better ser-vice to their patients and the public.
