反义核苷酸抑制人高迁移率族蛋白1表达对胰腺癌细胞的影响

目的　构建高迁移率族蛋白 1(HMGB1)基因的反义真核表达载体 ,寻找胰腺癌基因治疗新途径。方法应用分子克隆技术构建HMGB1基因反义真核表达载体 pcDNA3 1/antisense HMGB1,转染胰腺癌细胞株PANC 1,通过逆转录 聚合酶链反应 (RT PCR)、免疫印迹法 (Westernblot)、噻唑蓝 (MTT)比色法检测转染 4 8h后胰腺癌细胞HMGB1基因表达和体外增殖活性的变化。结果　成功构建 pcDNA3 1/antisense HMGB1反义真核表达载体。所获反义表达载体 pcDNA3 1/antisense HMGB1转染可使PANC 1细胞HMGB1mRNA和蛋白表达水平显著降低 (P <0 0 1)。反义 pcDNA3 1/antisense HMGB1的导入能有效抑制PANC 1增殖活性 (P <0 0 1)。 结论　应用反义RNA技术阻断HMGB1基因的表达 ,能有效抑制癌细胞的体外增殖活性 ,为基因治疗提供了新思路     

What methods do stakeholders prefer for feeding back performance data: a qualitative study in palliative care.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the opinions of stakeholders (service commissioners and providers) on how performance data should be presented, in order to develop effective feedback methods to facilitate the use of these data in decision making. DESIGN: A qualitative analysis of semi-structured face-to-face and telephone interviews. League tables and fictional box plots were presented as an illustrative guide. The themes covered in the interviews were the effectiveness of these two feedback formats, their positive and negative characteristics, and ideas for new and improved feedback mechanisms. PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-six stakeholders representing a range of clinical and non-clinical roles within palliative care and the wider health care system across a variety of statutory and non-statutory organizations from London and the West Midlands. RESULTS: Box plots were received more positively than league tables, and qualitative information was considered more appropriate than pictorial feedback. Conventional methods such as league tables and box plots were judged to lack essential information on which important decisions could be based, such as additional contextual information and the methodological assumptions of the instrument. Both feedback methods were considered useful as an impetus to further discussion. There was a consensus that feedback should be constructive and able to be adapted to the organizational realities in which UK health services function. CONCLUSION: Qualitative research was viewed as the right evidence for gaining an understanding of the quality of end of life care. Stakeholders highlighted the importance of the lay perspective, which requires approaches that illuminate the subjective meanings of patient experience.     

手外科温箱的研制及临床应用

目的研究手外科温箱对手外伤患者伤口或创面愈合,以及再植手指或手成活的影响。方法同期对手外伤术后应用手外科温箱治疗59例,应用烤灯治疗54例,观察效果。结果手外科温箱治疗59例,再植手指成活率97%,伤口一期愈合率96％,感染率4%;烤灯治疗54例,再植手指成活率90％,伤口一期愈合率92％,感染率8％。结论手外科温箱能提供观察、照明、保温、保湿、供氧、消毒、操作等功能,再植手指成活率和伤口一期愈合率明显上升,感染率明显下降,是手外科必备治疗康复设备。     

重症急性胰腺炎大鼠血清高迁移率族蛋白-1水平的时相变化及意义

目的 观察重症急性胰腺炎(SAP)大鼠血清肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)、白细胞介素19(IL-19)和高迁移率族蛋白-1(HMGBl)水平的时相变化，探讨HMGBl在SAP病程中的意义。方法采用胰管逆行灌注5％牛磺胆酸钠的方法复制大鼠SAP模型。随机分为正常对照组(N组，n=8)、假手术组(Sham组，n=8)和重症急性胰腺炎组(SAP组，n=80)。用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)检测各组动物血清TNF-α、IL-1β。用Westernblot法检测血清HMGBl水平。结果 SAP组大鼠血清TNF-α和IL-1β在建模后迅速升高，约在4～6h达高峰，之后迅速下降，在建模12h即降至接近正常水平，一直维持至24和48h。SAP组大鼠血清HMGB1水平在建模后12h开始有明显升高，至24和48h仍维持在较高水平。结论 HMGB1可能作为晚期炎症因子参与了SAP的全身炎症反应。
