ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the intention to participate in health care in transitional children and adolescents with diabetes and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey study. From March to October 2021, 185 children and adolescents with diabetes were selected as research subjects by convenience sampling method from People′s Hospital Affiliated to Jiangsu University. General data questionnaire, Participation in Health Care Intention Questionnaire, Health Literacy Scale and Diabetes Self-management Scale were used to investigate, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the population′s intention to participate in health care.Results:The transitional children and adolescents with diabetes participation in health care intention total score was (124.87 ± 16.31) points, the health literacy total score was (33.70 ± 4.38) points, diabetes self-management total score was (35.11 ± 5.19) points. The regression analysis found that age, course of the disease, diabetes type, family structure modes, health literacy, and self-management ability were the main factors influencing adolescents involved in health care intention ( t values were -1.99-2.66, all P<0.05), including health literacy ability and disease management ability was positively correlated with the disease ( r = 0.250, 0.232, both P<0.01). Conclusions:The transitional children and adolenscents with diabetes have a medium level of intention to participate in health care. The transitional children and adolenscents with older age, longer disease course and nuclear family structure had higher levels of health care intention. The higher the level of health literacy and self-management, the higher the level of intention to participate in health care, medical staff should take targeted measures to improve the intention to participate in health care, promote this group to improve disease management ability and quality of life.
ABSTRACT
Background Mitochondrial dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) regulates mitochondrial division and plays an important role in maintaining hepatocyte function. However, the role of DRP1 in cadmium exposure-induced maternal liver damage in pregnant mice remains unclear. Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of DRP1 in maternal liver damage induced by cadmium exposure during pregnancy. Methods This study consisted of animal experiments and cell experiments. (1) Animal experiments. Mice at 14 days of gestation were randomly divided into three groups: a control group, a low-dose cadmium group (LCd group: 2.5 mg·kg−1), and a high-dose cadmium group (HCd group: 5 mg·kg−1). The pregnant mice were intraperitoneally injected with cadmium chloride (CdCl2) for 6 and 24 h in the next morning. The weights of pregnant mice, uterus, maternal liver, and fetal mice were recorded after sacrifice. Serum and liver of pregnant mice were collected, the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in serum were detected, and liver tissues were stained with HE to observe changes in liver function and liver tissue structure. The expressions of oxidative phosphorylation-related proteins, hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and DRP1 proteins in liver of pregnant mice were detected by Western blotting. (2) Cell experiments. AML12 cells were treated with CdCl2 (10 μmol·L−1) for 0, 2, 6, 12, and 24 h. The expressions of oxidative phosphorylation-related proteins, DRP1, and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) proteins were detected. AML12 cells were pretreated with DRP1 inhibitor Mdivi-1 for 1 h and then CdCl2 (10 μmol·L−1) for 12 h to detect the expression of oxidative phosphorylation-related proteins and DRP1 protein. AML12 cells were treated with Hif-1α siRNA for 48 h and CdCl2 (10 μmol·L−1) for 6 h to detect the expression of HIF-1α and DRP1 proteins. Results The results of animal experiments showed that cadmium exposure in pregnant mice had no effects on maternal liver weight and liver coefficient. However, the histomorphological changes and necrosis in hepatocytes were observed. Compared with the control group, the serum ALT and AST levels of pregnant mice in the LCd group were significantly increased after 6 h (P＜0.05), and the levels in the HCd group were significantly increased after 6 and 24 h (P＜0.05). Cadmium exposure during pregnancy significantly up-regulated HIF-1α and DRP1 expressions and down-regulated the expressions of oxidative phosphorylation-related proteins in maternal livers. In vitro cell experiments showed that the expressions of oxidative phosphorylation-related proteins was significantly decreased and HIF-1α and DRP1 protein expressions were significantly increased in the AML12 cells treated with CdCl2 for 6 h. Mdivi-1 pretreatment significantly antagonized the inhibitory effect of cadmium on the expressions of oxidative phosphorylation-related proteins in AML12 cells, while Hif-1α siRNA pretreatment significantly antagonized the up-regulative effect of cadmium on DRP1 expression in AML12 cells. Conclusion Cadmium exposure in pregnant mice may up-regulate DRP1 expression by activating HIF-1α signaling, then inhibit oxidative phosphorylation level of hepatic cells, and ultimately lead to maternal liver damage.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of lidocaine and tramadol on remifentanil combined general anesthesia. Methods Eighty patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy were divided into group LT,L,T and C by random digits table,each with 20 cases .In group LT,during induction,the patients were intravenously. In group L,only used lidocaine as introduced in group LT. In group T,only used tramadol as shown in group LT. In group C,used the same volume of saline solution. The changes of mean arterial pressure (M A P) and heart rate during the operation, dysphoria grade (RS), Ramsay score (RSS), pain score (VAS),extubation time(ET),medication and dose,complications were recorded. Results In group LT,the dosage of propofol [(450 ± 178) mg] was less (P ＜ 0.05), ET [(15.0 ± 4.8) min] was shorter (P ＜ 0.05),during recovery time, RS was lower, RSS was higher,the cases needad fentanyl (1 case), 48 h after operation, only 1 case needed pethidine to relieve pain was less than those in other groups (P ＜ 0.05). In group L there was a tend that its RS and the cases needed fentanyl and fentanyl dosage were more, RSS was less than those in group T during recovery time,but 48 h after operation,the cases needed pethidine was less than that in group T. Conclusions Using lidocaine during operation may relieve pain after operation, reduce the dosage of analgesic;giving tramadol may alleviate the acute pain and lower dysphoria incidence rate after remifentanil anesthesia. Combining them will get a better effect.
