Creating a professional practice environment on a shoestring

Did you ever think, “If we just had a little money we could…”? The current health care environment is wrought with financial stressors that can be overwhelming and take up most of our time. Such stress can limit the development of a professional practice environment if you let it. How do you not only survive but thrive in this financial climate?     

角质形成细胞的培养及其表皮生长因子受体表达

目的:在成功分离人皮肤角质形成细胞的基础上,观察表皮生长因子受体在人皮肤角质形成细胞中的表达情况。方法:实验于2006-3/10在北京大学深圳医院中心实验室进行。采用dispase Ⅱ-trypsin两步消化法获取表皮基底层细胞,用小鼠皮肤成纤维母细胞滋养层和黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸培养液进行培养。小鼠皮肤成纤维母细胞的预处理:向对数生长期的小鼠皮肤成纤维母细胞培养液中加入丝裂霉素C至终浓度为4mg/L,37℃下培养4h,弃去培养液,用D-Hank’s液洗3次,加入浓度为0.25g/L的胰蛋白酶消化,分离出细胞,离心(200g,5min),用黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸培养液悬浮细胞,计数,以5.0×104/cm2的密度种于培养皿内,37℃、体积分数0.05的CO2培养箱下培养。角质形成细胞的培养:将分离的角质形成细胞悬浮在黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸培养液中,以2.0×104/cm2的密度接种在前1天经丝裂霉素C处理的小鼠皮肤成纤维母细胞滋养层上,37℃、体积分数0.05的CO2培养箱下培养。24h换液,以后每3d换1次液。采用免疫细胞化学的方法检测表皮生长因子受体的表达,采用复合逆转录聚合酶链反应检测角质形成细胞中表皮生长因子受体mRNA的表达。结果:采用dispaseⅡ消化法分离了真皮和表皮,获得较多的角质形成细胞,可以避免真皮成纤维细胞的污染。人皮肤角质形成细胞在黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸培养液中培养5d可见明显的集落,约10d可长满单层。免疫细胞化学显示表皮生长因子受体在细胞表面有明显的表达,复合逆转录聚合酶链反应显示表皮生长因子受体mRNA有明显的表达。结论:用小鼠皮肤成纤维母细胞滋养层和黄素腺嘌呤二核苷酸培养液可以较好地培养原代人皮肤角质形成细胞,表皮生长因子受体在细胞表面有明显的表达,这些结果为与表皮生长因子受体相关的皮肤病(如银屑病)的研究奠定了基础。     

Viewpoint: Use of King''s Conceptual System, Nursing Informatics, and Nursing Classification Systems for Global Communication

PURPOSE: To propose a common nursing language for communication among members of the nursing community worldwide. DATA SOURCES: The Taxonomy of Nursing Practice, nursing informatics literature, King's Theory of Goal Attainment applied to the nursing process. DATA SYNTHESIS: Several milestones in nursing in the 20th century indicated the need for a universal language for nursing. The nursing process provides a method for synthesis of nursing data, information, and knowledge and is congruent with Imogene King's Theory of Goal Attainment. CONCLUSIONS: The authors advocate for a common nursing language (nursing classification and terminology systems) that would unify nurses worldwide. Supported by nursing theory and technology, global communication would be enhanced for nurses and the interdisciplinary teams of which they are a part. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Use of Imogene King's Conceptual System and Theory of Goal Attainment and the nursing specialty of Nursing Informatics are examples of nursing theory and technology to frame global communication.
