ABSTRACT
@#<b>Objective</b> To analyze the process of intercomparison of national personal dose monitoring, evaluate the ability of personal dose monitoring, and ensure the accuracy and reliability of monitoring results in our laboratory. <b>Methods</b> In accordance with the intercomparison protocol for 2019—2021, an energy-discriminant thermoluminescence dosimeter was used for measurement at different doses. The uncertainty of measurement was evaluated and compared with the reference value. <b>Results</b> <i>H</i><sub>p</sub>(10) was measured for intercomparison in 2019—2021. In 2019, the single group performance difference was −0.02 to 0.02 and the comprehensive performance was 0.02. These values were 0.02-0.10 and 0.05 in 2020, and −0.02 to 0.02 and 0.01 in 2021. The intercomparison results were rated as excellent in the three consecutive years. <b>Conclusion</b> The personal dose monitoring system in our laboratory was in good condition, and the monitoring results were accurate and reliable. Improving the knowledge of personnel and cultivating a serious working attitude are important for intercomparison and personal dose monitoring.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of high frequency oscillatory ventilation in the treatment of neonatal pulmonary hemorrhage curative.Methods 56 neonates with pulmonary hemorrhage were selected,28 cases in high frequency mechanical ventilation(HFOV) group and 28 cases in conventional mechanical ventilation(CMV)group.On the basis of conventional treatment,the HFOV group received high-frequency mechanical ventilation therapy,the CMV group treated with conventional ventilation.The breathing machine parameters of the two groups were observed and recorded,calculated oxygenation index (OI) and arterial/alveolar oxygen partial pressure ratio (a/APaO2) The duration of pulmonary hemorrhage,the duration of mechanical ventilation,the length of hospital stay,and the duration of oxygen therapy were compared between the two groups.Results Before treatment,there were no statistically differences of in OI and a/APaO2 between the two groups (t1 =0.28,P1 =0.78;t2 =0.47,P2 =0.64),1h treatment later,declining value of the OI and the rising of a/APaO2 in surviving children,and the therapeutic effect of the HFOV group were more obvious than those of the CMV group (t1'=2.14,P1'=0.04;t2'=2.26,P2'=0.03).In the HFOV group,23 cases cured(82.1％),5 cases died(17.9％).And in CMV group,15 cases cured(53.6％),13 cases died (46.4％).The duration of pulmonary hemorrhage,the duration of mechanical ventilation,the length of the hospital stay,and the duration of oxygen therapy of the HFOV group were significantly lower than those of CMV group,the differences were statistically significant (P =0.046,0.044,0.048,0.035).Conclusion HFOV can better improve oxygenation function in infants with pulmonary hemorrhage,shorten the course of the disease and improve the cure rate,recommend the application and clinical treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of cystatin C (Cys C) on adventitia in rabbit abdominal aorta restenosis after angioplasty and its mechanism.Methods 48 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into injury group (receiving balloon dilation of abdominal aorta),the treatment group (taking Cys C monoclonal antibody therapy) and the control group (receiving femoral artery puncture and catheter sheath without balloon dilation and intervention of Cys C monoclonal antibody injection),and each group had 16 rabbits.Peripheral vein blood was drawn to measure the serum level of cystatin C before and 8 h,1 day,1 week,3 weeks,6 weeks after the operation in all rabbits.After 6 weeks of operation,the abdominal aorta were taken and stained with HE.Vascular morphometry analysis and adventitial cell count were conducted.Smooth muscle actin (SM-actin) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expressions in the adventitia were observed by immunohistochemical staining.The number of PCNA positive cell in the adventitia was counted and the PCNA proliferation index was calculated.The vascular remodeling index,vascular external elastic lamina area (EELA),internal elastic lamina area (IEIA) were used to evaluate the vascular remodeling and the residual stenosis and vascular cavity area was used to measure the vascular stenosis.Results Plasma Cys C level began to rise at 8h after operation and reached the peak at 1 week after operation,and continuously increased for 5 weeks in injury group,and reached to respectively at 3 weeks and 6 weeks after operation.The Cys C levels were significantly higher in injury group than in the treatment and control groups at different time points (all P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in Cys C levels at different time points between the treatment group and the control group.The injury group showed that the number of PCNA positive cells was higher in injury group than in treatment and control groups,both P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,the vascular luminal area,EELA and IELA were significantly increased (all P＜0.05).After treated with the monoclonal antibody Cys C intervention,the treatment group showed that lumen area,vascular EELA,IELA was significantly decreased (P＜0.05),and the vascular remodeling index and residual stenosis rate were decreased as compared with the injury group (0.871 vs.0.784,33.1％ vs.19.7 ％,both P＜0.05).Correlation analysis showed that Cystatin C level was positively correlated with the vascular lumen area,neointimal area,internal elastic lamina area,external elastic lamina area and the number of PCNA positive cells (r=0.812,0.797,0.876,0.932 and 0.822 respectively,all P＜0.01).Conclusions Plasma Cys C level is increased in rabbit after abdominal aorta balloon injury and has a positive correlation with the severity of arterial stenosis.High Cys C level can induce adventitial fibroblast activation,proliferation,phenotype transformation and migration,and accelerate the processes of atherosclerosis and stenosis.Cys C level is the independent risk factor for abdominal aortic stenosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship between Miao drum and hypertension in the Miao women of the countryside . Methods A survey of blood pressure measurement and questionnaire investigation were conducted among 1 069 Miao females ,by using cluster multistage sampling in countryside of Hunan ,Hubei ,Chongqing ,and Guizhou .A case-control analysis for 226 cases with new diagnosed hypertension and 226 controls with normal blood pressure .Results Among 1 069 sample ,the standardized prevalence rate of hypertemion was 24 .5% .There were significant differences in the prevalence rates of hypertension between the different age groups(χ2 =174 .46 ,P<0 .01) .The single factor logistic regression analysis(OR=0 .383 ,95% CI:0 .262-0 .558)and multi-conditional logistic regression analysis(OR=0 .379 ,95% CI:0 .255-0 .565)showed that Miao drum was probably protective factor for hypertension in the Miao women of the countryside .Conclusion Miao drum was probably protective factor for hyperten-sion in the Miao women of the countryside in Hunan ,Hubei ,Chongqing ,and Guizhou .Long-term adherence to participate in miao drum exercise may prevent high blood pressure .
