Hierarchical first aid training scheme for elementary and middle school students: the practices from the construction of "Baoan Model" social emergency medicine training / 中华危重病急救医学

Objective:To share the implementation experience of hierarchical first aid training scheme for elementary and middle school students in Baoan District of Shenzhen City and evaluate its effect of training. Methods:During August 2018 and August 2019, elementary and middle schools students who participated in the first aid training held by emergency rescue training center of Baoan District were enrolled. Baseline information including the number of students, the number of attending tutors, the number of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training models, automated external defibrillator (AED) models were recorded. According to hierarchical levels of three age, students received different courses with content from simple to hard: the course of elementary school students was consisting of dialing 120, smart animation on how to identify accidental damage, demonstration of AED and Hemlick techniques, CPR practise (40 minutes). The course of junior high school students was consisted of how to dial 120, how to identify accidental damage and simple disposal, application of CPR and AED, practice CPR and AED and Hemlick techniques (90 minutes). The course of high school students was consisted of how to dial 120, identify accidental damage and right disposal, identification of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, the key-point of CPR and AED, practice CPR and AED, Hemlick techniques and hemostatic bandage (120 minutes). At the end of course, elementary school students were voluntary for skill assessment; junior high school students only were compulsory for skill assessment in small classes but not required in large classes, just for demonstration; additionally, the whole high school students were compulsory for skill assessment. The characteristics of first aid training students at different levels were collected in order to compare the differences on the usage of CPR training model and AED training model, the distribution of emergency resource, the ratio for passing examination.Results:A total of 12 896 students and 2 086 training instructors took parted in 200 lists of first aid training courses, 8 557 CPR models and 8 493 AED models were used. On average, there are 65.27±5.61 students in each session, and 10.52±10.43 training instructors. There are 43.09±19.06 CPR training models and 42.77±18.61 AED training models. The mean ratio of student to tutor was 6.07±1.47, student to CPR model was 1.54±1.02, and student to AED model was 1.54±1.03. In the end of course, 10 494 students participated in the examination with the participation rate of 81.37%; 10 114 students passed the examination with the passing rate of 96.38%. Hierarchical analysis showed: compare to elementary school students, the average number of junior high school students in every training session significantly increased (cases: 69.94±8.77 vs. 58.69±6.12, P < 0.05), but the average number of high school students in every training session significantly decreased (cases: 57.35±5.79 vs. 58.69±6.12, P < 0.05). The proportion of instructors in junior high school students' training significantly reduced (5.94±1.39 vs. 6.48±2.02, P < 0.05). The examination ratio of junior high school students and high school students was increased significantly [81.07% (6 667/8 224), 100% (2 313/2 313) vs. 64.18% (1 514/2 359), both P < 0.05], but the ratio of passing the examination was significantly reduced [95.47% (6 365/6 667), 96.88% (2 241/2 313) vs. 99.60%(1 508/1 514), both P < 0.01]. This might be related to the low difficulty of elementary school students' assessment and the low proportion of compulsory examination. Conclusions:Hierarchical scheme is feasible for first aid training in elementary and middle school students, the content of course should be desighed from easy to hard. Synchronously, sufficient training instructors and training models should be equipped to ensure the quality.

Objective To observe curative effects of biological amnion transplantation to treat the huge pterygium.Methods 86 eyes were divided into two groups randomly(by random number table).Group A were eyes treated with cutting the pterygium and uncovered sclarel wound.Group B were eyes treated with biological amnion which had been transplanted on scleral wound and all conea after the pterygium had cut.The irritative symptoms,heal time of corneal wound,relapse rate after half year were recorded.Results Its mild irritative symptoms such as foreign body sensation,photophobia and pain in group B were lighter than those in group A(χ2 =6.08,P =0.01,χ2 =31.40, P =0.00,χ2 =14.18,P =0.00).The time of corneal wound heal was 5.21 ±0.89 days in group A and it was (4.02 ± 0.71)days in group B.The statistic was significant(t =6.85,P =0.00).There was no significant difference in relapse rate after half year between group A and group B(χ2 =1.40,P =0.24).Conclusion Biological amnion transplantation can alleviating irritative symptoms and shortening heal time in huge pterygium operation.

Combined treatment of etanercept and MTX reverses Th1/Th2, Th17/Treg imbalance in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the mechanism of Etanercept in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we investigated whether the Th1/Th2 and Th17/regulatory T cells (Treg) imbalance could be reversed by Etanercept and whether the reversal was related to the improvement of clinical indications. METHODS: We conducted a 12-week study in 40 active RA patients, of whom 20 were given a stable weekly dose of methotrexate (MTX) alone and the other ten received a combined therapy of Etanercept and MTX. Ten healthy donors were chosen as controls. Frequencies of Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg were quantified using flow cytometry, and related serum cytokines were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The composite 28-joint count Disease Activity Score, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and C-reactive protein were assessed at each visit. RESULTS: Percentages of IFN-γ(+)Th1 and IL-17(+)Th17 among CD4(+) T cells were significantly higher, while CD4(+)CD25(high)Foxp3(+) Treg were significantly lower in RA patients compared with those in healthy control. After 12 weeks of therapy of MTX single or combination of MTX and Etanercept, the circulating Th17/Treg ratio significantly decreased, while no significant difference was observed in Th1/Th2 ratio. In combined therapy group, the Th17/Treg ratio was positively correlated with the remittance of disease activity. IL-1ß, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-17, and IL-23 were significantly decreased, while TGF-ß was significantly elevated. The Th17/Treg ratio was positively related to TGF-ß, but negatively correlated with IL-6. CONCLUSION: Etanercept in combination with MTX ameliorates RA activity by normalizing the distribution of Th17 and Treg, and their related cytokines, which may partly explain the mechanism of combined therapy of Etanercept plus MTX in RA treatment.

Immunological synapse formation inhibits the apoptosis of macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis / 中华风湿病学杂志

Objective To determine whether macrophages can behave as antigen presenting cells participating the formation of immunological synapse in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and whether this process can affect the apoptosis. Moreover, this study was aimed to observe the function of cyclophilin A (CypA) in immunological synapse formation and its role in regulating the apoptosis of macrophages. Methods human acute monocytic leukemia cell line (THP-1) induced macrophages were coated with staphylococcal enterotoxin B(SEB) (100 ng/ml) and co-cultured with activated Jurkat T cells (human acute T-cell leukemia cell line), then incubated in the RPMI-1640 for 16 hours to induce apoptosis. The apoptosis of the macrophages were analyzed by flow cytometry by Annexin V-PI staining. The macrophages cultured in the RPMI-1640 alone were used as control. Meanwhile, CypA (200 ng/ml) were added to or not added in order to observe the apoptosis of macrophages. The function of CypA and the apoptosis of macrophages isolated from RA peripheral blood were also investigated through co-culture with CD4+T cells isolated by immunomagnetic beads. Comparisons between groups were performed by two-sample t-tests. Results In the peripheral blood of healthy people and RA patients, the apoptosis of macrophages which participated immunological synapse was (32.9±2.8)%, (24.7±1.6)%, (14.5±1.2)% respectively, which was significantly lower than the apoptosis of macrophages cultured alone [ respectively for (61.4±2.4)%, (45.5±2.6)%, (22.9±1.5)%, (P<0.05) ]. After CypA was added, the apoptosis of macrophages in cell lines, healthy people and RA patients decreased to (27.2±2.1)%, (20.1±1.1)%, (12.9±1.0)%, lower than the apoptosis of macrophages which participated immunological synapse formation (P<0.05). Conclusion In RA, the macrophages participate in the formation of immunological synapse by interacting with CD4+ T cells. They can significantly reduce the apoptosis on themselves. CypA can enhance this effect. These results provide a new theoretical foundation for prolonged survival of macrophages in RA, which can secrete a variety of cytokines to enhance inflammation and joint destruction.

Comparison of two rheumatoid arthritis models developed with different transplanting methods In severe combined immunodeficiency mice / 中华风湿病学杂志

Objective To compare the pathological and serological difference of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) models in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice transplanted with synovial tissues from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (SCID-HuRAg mice) established either by renal capsule or subcutaneous back heterotopic transplantation. Methods RA synovium and normal human cartilage were co-implanted subcutaneously into the backs or under the renal capsule of 15 SCID mice. Engrafted tissues and serum were taken at the 4th and 8th week after transplantation. Histopathology and ELISA were performed to compare their histological and serological differences with RA. Results The morbidity and taken rate were significantly increased in the subcutaneous back of the mice group than the renal capsule group. The degree of cartilage erosion as well as the titers of serum IgM type rheumatoid factor suggested no significant difference between the two groups of SCID-HuRAg model devel oped by different engraft methods. Conclusion Back subcutaneous transplantation SCID-HuRAg model can be an ideal and stable animal model for studies on the pathogenesis and biotherapy of RA.
