RESUMO
Infant nutritional status evaluation is a basic experimental skill in the experimental teaching of nutrition and food hygiene. The construction of this virtual simulation experiment can solve the problems of activeness and poor coordination of infants and young children in the actual operation of the experiment. And based on the application of this virtual simulation project, the experimental teaching method of preventive medicine was explored. This experiment adopted online and offline mixed teaching method, which enriches teaching measures and strengthens the standardized process of infant nutritional status evaluation. After 3 semesters of practice from spring 2018 to spring 2020, the proportion of students who achieved excellent grades was 30.09% (34/113), 56.02% (279/498) and 66.79% (1 080/1 617), respectively, which increased significantly year by year ( Ptrend < 0.001). Among all the 2 228 students, 1 983 students (89%) believed that this experimental teaching could better cultivate the ability of autonomous learning. Through the study of virtual simulation experiments, students have improved their subjective initiative, and laid a foundation for the improvement of students' overall quality and the requirements of school elite education.
RESUMO
Object:To explore the clinical effect of periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) in the treatment of developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH).Methods:The clinical data of 305 patients with DDH admitted to Tangshan Second Hospital from January 2012 to June 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were treated with PAO alone. There were 123 cases of left hip dysplasia, 131 cases of right hip dysplasia and 51 cases of double hip dysplasia (356 hips in total). The patients underwent X-ray examination before and on the second day after operation to compare the acetabular index and the lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and the anterior center edge angle (ACEA) of the acetabulum before and after operation. The ability of daily living and hip joint function were evaluated before and 6 months after operation, and Barthel index and Harris score of hip joint were compared before and after treatment. The measurement data with normal distribution are expressed in xˉ± s, and the paired t test was used for comparison before and after operation. The measurement data of non-normal distribution is expressed by M( Q1, Q3), and the comparison before and after surgery is performed by the rank sum test. Results:On the second day after operation, the LCEA and ACEA of 356 hip joints in 305 patients were greater than those before operation (32.5(20.0,47.5)° vs 8.5(-18.5 23.0)°, 29.0(18.5,52.3)° vs 2.5(-20.8, 24.5)°), while the acetabulum index was lower than that before operation (6.7(-8.4,12.5)° vs 26.8(10.0, 62.3)°), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z values were 51.50, 45.37, 32.22, all P<0.001). After 6 months of follow-up, the Barthel score and Harris score of the hip joint were higher than those before the operation (92.5±1.3) scores vs (65.6±1.5) scores, (96.4±2.5) scores vs (85.1±1.3) scores, and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 335.56 and 89.70, both P<0.001). Conclusions:PAO can make the acetabulum cover the femoral head well through acetabular transposition, improve the ability of daily living and hip joint function of DDH patients, reduce pain, increase joint range of motion, and correct limb deformities. It is an effective means to treat DDH.

BACKGROUND: Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) has an important role in tendon healing and adhesion formation.Inhibiting TGF-β and its receptor expression may prevent adhesions after tendon open.OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of mannose-6-phosphate, a natural inhibitor of TGF-β, on TGF-β and its receptor production in tendon sheath fibroblasts, epitenon tenocytes, and endotenon tenocytes of rabbit flexor toes.METHODS: Tendon sheath fibroblasts, epitenon tenocytes, and endotenon tenocytes were isolated from rabbit flexor tendon and cultured separately. All these cells were divided into 2 groups at random, experiment group supplemented with mannose-6-phosphate and control group without mannose-6-phosphate. The expression of TGF-β and TGF-β receptor was quantified with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression of TGF-β1 was also assessed with in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The expression of TGF-β and TGF-β receptor in experiment group was significantly lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). In experimental group, the positive expression of TGF-β1 mRNA and the expression level of intracellular TGF-β1 mRNA in all tendon cells demonstrated significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).Immunohistochemical staining showed expression of TGF-β1 were significantly lower in all three types of tendon cell cultured with mannose-6-phosphate.
RESUMO
Objective: To investigate effects of beta-carotene on instestine mucosa barrier function in rats damaged by X-ray radiation. Methods: 40 female SD rats were randomized into 4 groups as the normal control group (Group C) ,the radiation group (Group R) ,the β-C 5 mg/(kg · d) group (Group T1) and the β-C 10 mg/(kg · d) group (Group T2). After 14 days of continuous administration of peanut oil in groups C and R or beta-carotene (2. 5 mL/kg) in groups T1 and T2,the rats in groups R, T1 and T2 were radiated under a 9 Gy dose of X-ray. And then 3 days later,the rats were killed and the amount of diamine oxidase(DAO) and the level of bacterial endotoxin were detected. The structure and length of the crypt-villus axis (CVA) of jejunum were also observed and analyzed. Results: Obvious slow weight gain was observed in group R. Compared with group C, the CVA of group R was significantly shorter (P0.05). The CVA of group T1 was significantly longer than that of group R, but the intestinal mucosal injury was slighter(P 0. 05). Group T2 gained more than group T1 (P 0. 05). Conclusion: Beta-carotene may decrease the X-ray radiation damage on jejunum and maintain the normal function of gut mucosa barrier in rats.

RESUMO
Objective:To study the effect of dietary supplementation of folic acid(FA),VC,VB 6 and taurine on teratogenesis of rats induced by cyclophosphamide. Methods:The teratogenesis was induced by cyclophosphamide. Dietary supplementation of FA, VC, VB 6 and taurine was used to depress teratogenesis in pregnant rats. Results:We found that cyclophosphamide administration resulted in decreased weight and length of the fetuses, increased rate of neural tube defects, and retarded ossification. Supplementation of the diet with FA alone or FA+VC+VB 6+taurine resulted in statistically greater fetal weight and length, decreased rate of neural tube defects, and increased ossification grade of supraoccipital bone. Conclusion:The mixture of FA+VC+VB 6+taurine is superior to FA alone in increasing fetal weight and length, reducing the incidence of neural tube defects, and ossification abnormalities of the supraoccipital bone.

RESUMO
Objective: The study was to exlpore the nutritional, antioxidative functions and toxicology of ascorbic acid in different levels in vitro. [WT5FZ]Methods: Hela (human transformed epithelial) cells incubated with three levels of ascorbic acid, i.e. 0.1 mmol/L, 0.25 mmol/L and 0.5 mmol/L, were calculated and a single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) was used for measuring DNA oxidative damage. [WT5FZ]Results: The results showed that there were no differences in spontaneous DNA damage of Hela cells incubated with three levels of ascorbic acid. However, there was a less DNA oxidative damage induced by H 2O 2 in 0.1 mmol/L and 0.25 mmol/L of ascorbic acid supplemented groups respectively than in control group. In contrast, more serious DNA damage was found in 0.5 mmol/L ascorbic acid supplemented group. [WT5FZ]Conclusion: It is suggested that the higher levels of ascorbic acid might not directly damage DNA; the moderate supplementation of ascorbic acid may increase antioxidative ability of cells; excess ascorbic acid is harmful to DNA and enhances the susceptibility to H 2O 2 potentially.
