  • STUDY ON BIOLOGICAL BEHAVIOR OF OSTEOBLAST AND VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL CELLCULTURE

    Objective To study the biological behavior of osteoblast and vascular endothelial cell culture. Methods The osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells were obtained from calvarial bone and renal cortox of 2-week rabbits respectively. The experiment were divided into group A (osteoblasts), group B (vascular endothelial cells) and group C(co-cultured osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells). The cells were identified with cytoimmunochemical staining. The cellular biological behavior and compatibilitywere observed under inverted phase contrast microscope and with histological staining. The cells viability and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activity were measured. Results The cytoimmunochemical staining showed that the cultured cells were osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells .The cellular compatibility of osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells was good. The ALP activity was higher in group C than in group A and group B(P<0.01), and it was higher in group A than in group B(P<0.05). In group C, the cellproliferation were increased slowly early, but fast later. Conclusion Thecellular compatibility of osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells were good. The vascular endothelial cells can significantly increased the osteoblast viability and ALP activity,and the combined cultured cells have greater proliferation ability.

  • Expressions of RhoA and Snail in Gastric Cancer Tissues and Relation Between These Expressions and Biological Behavior of Gastric Cancer

    Objective To detect the expressions of RhoA and Snail in gastric cancer tissues, and explore the relati-onship of these expressions to the biological behavior of the gastric cancer. Methods The expressions of RhoA and Snail protein in the paraffin-embedded specimens of 189 gastric cancer patients were detected by immunohistochemical method. The relationships of their expressions to clinicopathologic features of gastric cancer or survival, and the relevance of RhoA expression and Snail expression were analyzed. Results ① The expressions of RhoA and Snail protein in the gastric cancer tissues were significantly higher than those in the paraneoplastic tissue (RhoA:P=0.008;Snail:P=0.000) and the normal gastric mucosa tissue (RhoA:P=0.010;Snail:P=0.000);The expression of RhoA had no significant difference between the paraneoplastic tissue and the normal gastric mucosa tissue (P=0.782), however, the expression of Snail in the paraneoplastic tissue was significantly higher than that in the normal gastric mucosa tissue (P=0.001). ② The expression of RhoA in the gastric cancer tissue was associated with TNM staging and Lauren type (P<0.05), but it was not associated with tumor diameter, lymph node metastasis, or differentiation degree (P>0.05). The expression of Snail in the gastric cancer tissue was associated with tumor diameter, lymph node metastasis, differentiation degree, TNM staging, or Lauren type (P<0.05). The expressions of RhoA and Snail in the gastric cancer tissue were not associated with patients’ gender and age (P>0.05). ③ The expression of RhoA protein was significantly positi-vely correlated with Snail protein in the gastric cancer(rs=0.203, P=0.005). ④ The TNM staging of tumor, RhoA and Snail expressions, and lymph node metastasis were all the independent prognostic factors of postoperative gastric cancer patients (P<0.05). Conclusions RhoA and Snail proteins express in gastric cancer tissues, and involves in gastric carcinogenesis and the development process, and RhoA/Snail signaling pathway may play an important role in invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.

  • A multi-behavior recognition method for macaques based on improved SlowFast network

    Macaque is a common animal model in drug safety assessment. Its behavior reflects its health condition before and after drug administration, which can effectively reveal the side effects of drugs. At present, researchers usually rely on artificial methods to observe the behavior of macaque, which cannot achieve uninterrupted 24-hour monitoring. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a system to realize 24-hour observation and recognition of macaque behavior. In order to solve this problem, this paper constructs a video dataset containing nine kinds of macaque behaviors (MBVD-9), and proposes a network called Transformer-augmented SlowFast for macaque behavior recognition (TAS-MBR) based on this dataset. Specifically, the TAS-MBR network converts the red, green and blue (RGB) color mode frame input by its fast branches into residual frames on the basis of SlowFast network and introduces the Transformer module after the convolution operation to obtain sports information more effectively. The results show that the average classification accuracy of TAS-MBR network for macaque behavior is 94.53%, which is significantly improved compared with the original SlowFast network, proving the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method in macaque behavior recognition. This work provides a new idea for the continuous observation and recognition of the behavior of macaque, and lays the technical foundation for the calculation of monkey behaviors before and after medication in drug safety evaluation.

  • Investigation on preventive behaviors of occupational exposure in medical staff based on health belief model

    Objective To explore the influencing factors of medical staff’s preventive behaviors of occupational exposure using health belief model. Methods A questionnaire was used to investigate the health beliefs and prevention-related behaviors of medical staff in Shuguang Hospital Affilliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from July 2018 to June 2019. The preventive behaviors and health beliefs of health workers with different occupational categories and working years were analyzed descriptively, and the influence of health beliefs on preventive behaviors was analyzed with multiple linear regression. Results There were 400 copies of questionnaire dispatched and 384 recovered. Among the survey respondents, 258 (67.19%) were females, 169 (44.01%) were aged 20-30 years, and 203 (52.86%) had worked for 5 or less years; 158 (41.15%) had sharp injury experience, 171 (44.53%) had experience of exposure to blood or body fluids, and 290 (75.52%) were actively immunized by injecting vaccines. The total score of compliance with standard preventive behaviors of the 384 respondents was 6.94±3.12. The scores of perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived barriers, perceived benefits, and perceived self-efficacy were 24.87±4.56, 31.27±5.92, 16.50±5.77, 36.06±5.60, and 15.27±2.98, respectively. The total score of health beliefs was 123.97±15.91. The compliance with standard preventive behaviors and total score of health beliefs of logistics staff were lower than those of other respondents (P<0.05). The scores of perceived barriers of medical technicians and clinicians were significantly higher than that of nurses (P<0.05). The scores of perceived benefits and perceived self-efficacy of clinicians were lower than those of nurses (P<0.05). Respondents who had worked for 6-10 years had better compliance with standard preventive behaviors than interns and the ones who had worked for 11-15 years (P<0.05), and had a lower total score of health beliefs than the ones who had worked for over 16 years (P<0.05). Respondents who had worked for over 16 years had better scores of perceived benefits and perceived self-efficacy (P<0.05), and had a lower score of perceived barriers (P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender [nonstandardized partial regression coefficient (b)=–0.644, 95% confidence interval (CI) (–1.162, –0.125), P=0.015], educational background [b=1.367, 95%CI (1.245, 1.587), P<0.001], and score of perceived barriers [b=0.044, 95%CI (0.004, 0.084), P=0.031] were influencing factors of medical staff’s preventive behavior compliance. Conclusions The score of perceived barriers is a main factor that prevents medical staff from implementing standard preventive measures. In the occupational exposure training program, it may be effective to help medical staff establish good standard prevention habits by improving the awareness of obstacles.

  • Efficacy of Telephone-Delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia: A Meta-analysis

    ObjectivesTo systematically review the efficacy of telephone-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for insomnia. MethodsDatabases including PubMed, EMbase, PsycINFO, The Cochrane Library (Issue 7, 2015), CBM and CNKI were searched from inception to July 2015, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCT) about telephone-delivered CBT for insomnia. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, RevMan 5.2 software was used to performing meta-analysis. ResultsFive RCTs involving 322 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that:Compared with the waiting group, the sleep onset latency was shorter (MD=-30.31, 95% CI -40.41 to -20.22, P<0.00001), the waking after sleep onset was shorter (MD=-15.59, 95% CI -24.09 to -7.09, P=0.0003) and the sleep efficiency was higher (MD=11.02, 95% CI 7.87 to 14.18, P<0.00001) in the telephone-delivered CBT group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups in total sleep time (MD=13.45, 95% CI -37.01 to 63.92, P=0.60). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows, telephone-delivered CBT is effective for insomnia. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusion needs to be verified by more large-scale, high quality RCTs.

  • Causal relationship between female reproductive behavior and rheumatoid arthritis: a Mendelian randomization study

    ObjectiveTo investigate the potential causal relationship between four types of reproductive behaviors and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with the goal of establishing a theoretical foundation for clinical prevention and treatment strategies. MethodsPooled gene-wide association study (GWAS) data were obtained from large publicly searchable databases. Four characteristics like menarche, menopause, the age of first pregnancy and the age of last pregnancy, which related to reproductive behavior were selected as the exposure factors and RA as the outcome factors. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which were strongly correlated with the phenotype of the exposure factors, were screened as the instrumental variables, and two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses were used to assess the potential causal relationship between the exposure and the disease. Results① The Mendelian randomization analysis utilizing the inverse variance weighted method on two distinct samples revealed a significant negative correlation between the age of first pregnancy and last pregnancy with the risk of RA (OR=0.91, 95%CI 0.85 to 0.98, P=0.011; OR=0.54, 95%CI 0.31 to 0.93, P=0.026). Conversely, no causal relationship was observed between menarche and menopause with RA. Sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of the causal relationship, while MR Egger intercept analysis did not identify any potential horizontal pleiotropy (Page of first gestation -RA=0.169, Page of last gestation -RA=0.283). ② Reverse Mendelian randomization analysis revealed a significant positive causal association between RA and the age of first pregnancy, while no causal relationship was observed with the age of last pregnancy (OR=1.07, 95%CI 1.02 to 1.11, P=0.001). ③ Multivariate Mendelian randomization analysis demonstrated that both the age of first pregnancy and last pregnancy in women were inversely associated with the risk of RA (OR=0.88, 95%CI 0.80 to 0.97, P=0.010; OR=0.68, 95%CI 0.48 to 0.97, P=0.033). ④ There existed a negative correlation between the age of pregnancy in women and the risk of developing RA, suggesting a potential protective effect. ConclusionPregnancy age may have a negative causal relationship with the risk of RA, while menarche and menopause have no causal relationship with RA.

  • Self-management behavior and its influencing factors of patients with cirrhosis: a cross-sectional survey

    Objective To investigate the general situation of self-management behavior of patients with cirrhosis, and analyze its influencing factors. Method From January to June 2015, the in-patients with liver cirrhosis were recruited from Gastroenterology Ward of a comprehensive hospital in Chengdu city by convenience sampling method, and a series of questionnaires were used in the research, including self-management behavior scale, social support scale (SSRS), quality of life questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF) and sociodemographic characteristics. Results One hundred and sixty-eight patients were enrolled. The self-management behavior of patients with cirrhosis scored an average of 50.4±11.3, which was in the medium level. Self management behavior was positively and significantly correlated with social support (r=0.488, P<0.001) and the overall quality of life (r=0.554, P<0.001). Multiple linear regression indicated that the gender and course of the disease were two influencing factors. Moreover, female experienced better self-management behavior than men (t=27.090, P<0.001); and the longer the course of the disease was, the better the self-management behavior could be found (t=34.057, P<0.001). Conclusion We should strengthen the health education of self-management in patients with cirrhosis, and make full use of the patients’ social support system, so as to improve the patients’ self-management behavior as well as the treatment of diseases and their quality of life.
