ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the status quo of spiritual nursing needs and its influencing factors of patients with permanent enterostomy, and analyze its correlation with disability acceptance and stigma, so as to provide a reference for the construction of targeted spiritual nursing intervention programs.Methods:A total of 351 patients with permanent enterostomy in Xiangya Hospital Central South University and Hunan Cancer Hospital were selected by convenience sampling from January 2021 to March 2022. A cross-section by using the self-made general information questionnaire, Nurse Spiritual Therapeutics Scale (NSTS), Acceptance of Disability Scale (ADS), and Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness (SSCI). And multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of spiritual nursing needs of patients with permanent enterostomy.Results:The total score of spiritual nursing needs of patients with permanent enterostomy was 30.15 ± 6.46, and the average score of items was 2.51 ± 0.78. Among the five dimensions, the highest average score was creating a good atmosphere 3.10 ± 0.98, and and the lowest was helping religious practice 1.65 ± 0.70. The total score of disability acceptance was 81.94 ± 13.86; the total score of stigma was 64.03 ± 14.28. The total scores of spiritual nursing needs were positively correlated with the total scores of disability acceptance ( r=0.703, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with the total scores of stigma ( r=-0.516, P<0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that religious beliefs, educational level, residence, course of disease, disability acceptance, and stigma were the main influencing factors for the spiritual nursing needs of patients with permanent enterostomy ( t values were -13.26-13.56, all P<0.01), accounting for 52.5% of the total variation. Conclusions:The spiritual nursing needs of patients with permanent enterostomy were moderate. It is suggested that nurses can develop targeted spiritual nursing measures according to the individualized characteristics of patients, improve their disability acceptance and reduce their stigma level, so as to meet their spiritual nursing needs and realize their spiritual safety.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the effects of estrogen and remifemin on the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, member 1 and 3 (M1 and M3 receptor) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the submandibular gland of rats.@*Methods@#Forty SD female adult rats were divided into SHAM group (sham operation), OVX group (ovarian removal), OVX+E group (ovarian removal + estrogen treatment) and OVX+ICR group (ovarian removal + remifemin treatment), 10 per group. The rats were recovered for 2 weeks after operation. The SHAM group and the OVX group were treated with distilled water, the OVX+E group and the OVX+ICR group were treated with β-estradiol and remifemin respectively. After 4 weeks, the location and expression of nNOS, TRPV1, M1 and M3 receptors in the submandibular gland were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. The changes of AChE expression in rat submandibular gland were observed by AChE staining.@*Results@#Compared with SHAM group (0.23±0.02, 0.28±0.01, 0.25±0.03, 0.19±0.03), the expression of nNOS, TRPV1, M1 and M3 receptors in OVX group (0.16±0.01, 0.21±0.01, 0.15±0.02, 0.09±0.02) were significantly lower (P<0.05); there were no significant difference between OVX+E group (0.23±0.01, 0.28±0.02, 0.23±0.03, 0.19±0.01) and SHAM group (P>0.05). But compared with OVX group, the expression of nNOS, TRPV1 and M3 receptors in OVX+ICR group were no significantly changed (P>0.05), and only M1 receptor expression (0.22±0.03) was significantly increased (P<0.05). The expression of AChE in OVX group (0.14±0.01) was significantly higher than that in SHAM group (0.10±0.01) (P<0.05). The expression of AChE in OVX+E group (0.15±0.01) was significantly higher than that in SHAM group (P<0.05). The expression of AChE in OVX+ICR group (0.09±0.01) was not significantly different from that in SHAM group (P>0.05).@*Conclusions@#Estrogen can significantly increase the expression of nNOS and TRPV1 in the submandibular gland of rats, suggesting that estrogen may regulate the salivary secretion function of the submandibular gland through nNOS and TRPV1. The mechanism of remifemin is different from that of estrogen, and remifemin does not play a regulatory role by nNOS and TRPV1.
ABSTRACT
Aim To investigate the effects of Naotai formula extract(NTE)on the expression of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) and hephaestin(Heph) in hippocampus of rats after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion by Keap1-Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway.Methods Eighty rats were randomly divided into five groups as follows: sham operation group(Sham), cerebral ischemia/reperfusion group(I/R), low dose group of NTE(4.5 g·kg-1), middle dose group of NTE (9 g·kg-1) and high dose group of NTE(18 g·kg-1).Rats were pretreated by intragastric administration for three consecutive days, and then subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) 2 hours before reperfusion.The rats were administered with intragastric administration for two days.After cerebral ischemia reperfusion 72 hours, the behavioral activity of rats was recorded by Zea Longa neurological score, and the infarct volume was measured by TTC staining.The expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 and Heph in hippocampus of cerebral ischemia reperfusion rats were observed by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot, respectively.Results Compared with model group, the neurobehavioral scores significantly decreased in NTE high-dose and middle-dose groups (P<0.01);the infarct volume of NTE groups markedly decreased (P<0.01);the expression of HO-1 mRNA apparently increased (P<0.05) in NTE groups;the expression of Heph mRNA significantly increased in NTE middle-dose and high-dose groups (P<0.05);the expression of Nrf2 and Heph protein evidently increased in the NTE middle and high dose groups (P<0.05, P<0.01);and the expression of HO-1 protein also increased in NTE groups(P<0.01).Conclusions Naotai formula can relieve cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.The mechanism might be associated with activating Keap1-Nrf2/ARE signaling pathways, promoting HO-1 generation, advancing the expression of Heph, and then reducing brain iron deposition, to achieve the protection of neurons after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effects of picrodideⅡ on cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury in rats. Methods Intraluminal thread methods were applied to establish the left middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion models (MCAO/R) in rats. PicrodideⅡ (10mg/kg) and salvianic acid A sodium (10mg/kg) were injected from tail vein for treatment. The neurological behavioral function was evaluated with Bederson's test. The cerebral infarction volume was observed with tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The structure of cells was observed with histopathology. The apoptosis positive cells were counted by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase midiated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). Results The neurological behavioral malfunction appeared in all rats with MCAO/R. The infarction focus showed in the ischemic hemisphere following cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury. In the picrodideⅡ and salvianic acid A sodium treatment groups, the number of apoptosis positive cells decreased and the cerebral infarction volume reduced, while the neurological behavioral function was significantly improved than those in the model control group (P<0.05). The cerebral infarction volume in the picrodideⅡ group was smaller than that in the salvianic acid A sodium group (P<0.05).Conclusion PicrodideⅡ might reduce cerebral infarction volume and improve the neurological behavioral function through inhibiting the neuronal apoptosis induced by ischemia reperfusion injury.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the influence of neuregulin-1?(NRG-1?) on neuronal apoptosis and the expressions of signal transducer and activator of transcription(STAT3) and glial fiberillary acidic protein(GFAP) following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats.Methods The animal models of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion(MCAO/R) was established by the intralumianl filament method from left external-internal carotid artery in adult healthy male Wistar rats.The rat models were treated by injecting 1.5% NRG-1? 5?l from internal carotid artery.The neuronal apoptosis was detected by DendEnd fluorometric TUNEL assay,and the expressions of STAT3 and GFAP were determined by immunohistochemical and immumofluorescent assays.Results The cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury could induce neuronal apoptosis and the expressions of STAT3 and GFAP in brain tissue.In control group,the number of neuronal apoptosis increased gradually and the STAT3 and GFAP were expressed highly along ischemia times in the cortex,striatum and hippocampus areas.After treatment with NRG-1?,the number of neuronal apoptosis reduced and the expression level of STAT3 and GFAP increased when compared to those in the control group at different ischemia times and corresponding areas(P
