RESUMO
Freshwater snail is an important biological group in aquatic ecosystem and an intermediate host of many parasites. Intestinal flora plays an important role in animal energy metabolism and resistance to pathogens. We analyzed the intestinal microbiota diversity of Radix auricularia (RA) and Planorbella trivolvis (PL) by 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing. At the phylum level, RA had 23 phyla, including Proteobacteria (33.63%), Cyanobacteria (15.33%), Chloroflexi (13.95%), and Actinomycetes (12.99%). PL had 13 phyla, including Proteobacteria (54.88%), Bacteroidetes (28.49%), and Actinomycetes (7.65%). At the genus level, there were 445 genera in RA, including Pleurocapsa, Thiodictyon, Leptotrichia, and Nocardioides. There were 238 genera in PL, including Cloacibacterium, OM60NOR5_clade, Pseudomonas, and Rhodobacter. Ninety-three genera were the common core flora of the two snail species (all the samples were present), and 27 genera had an abundance greater than 0.5%. The structure of intestinal microbiota was significantly different between the two groups (P=0.027). We performed the functional prediction of intestinal microbiota using Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States (PICRUSt), and the results show that the KEGG functional composition of the intestinal flora of the two snails was similar, and the abundance of the amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism and membrane transport were large. In summary, the intestinal microbiota of the two snails was high in diversity and significantly different, but there were a large number of common core flora.

Objective To analyze the relationship between ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) and cognitive function in elderly hypertensive patients with leukoaraiosis (LA).Methods Eighty elderly hypertensive patients with LA underwent 24 h ABP monitoring to record their 24 h SBPV,DBPV,AASI,and APPI.The patients were scored according to the MMSE Scale.Results The 24 h SBPV,DBPV,AASI,and APPI were significantly higher in degrees 1,2,3 of LA than in degree 0 of LA (P＜0.05),in degrees 2,3 of LA than in degree 1 of LA (P＜0.05),and in degree 3 of LA than in degree 2 of LA (P＜0.05).The MMSE Scale score of memory,attention,counting,recall,language and the total score were significantly lower in degrees 2,3 of LA than in degrees 1,2 of LA (P＜0.05).The 24 h SBPV,DBPV,AASI,and APPI were negatively related with the MMSE Scale score (r=-0.8697,P=0.000;r=-0.6709,P=0.002;r=-0.8373,P=0.000;r=-0.5991,P=0.007).Conclusion The severer the LA is,the higher the 24 h SBPV,AASI and APPI are.The 24 h SBPV and AASI can thus be used as the indicators of LA and cognitive function impairement.
RESUMO
Objective To study the influence of the nursing quality of non-small cell lung cancer chemotherapy pa-tients with synchronous conformal intensity modulated radiotherapy quality of life. Methods From April 2013 to May 2014, 104 cases of patients with chemotherapy in our hospital in the synchronization of conformal intensity modulated radiation therapy were randomly divided into observation group (52 cases) and control group (52 cases) by digital method. The control group was treated by routine nursing methods while the observation group patients were given with the high quality nursing care, and the satisfaction and quality of life outcomes were compared in two groups. Results The rate in the observation group at the satisfaction of the lung original kitchen complete response ratio,total effective ratio and quality of life in the a good proportion int observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Conclusion High quality nursing care for non-small cell lung cancer chemotherapy patients with synchronous conformal intensity modulated radiation therapy,can improve the patient's quality of life, with security,it is worthy of clinical promotions.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of Tenascin-C on remodeling of ventricle in mice with chronic autoimmune myocarditis.Methods Seventy-five specific pathogen-free BALB/c mice were divided into experimental group(n=45)and control group(n=30).Animals in experimental group were immunized with an emulsion of polypeptides(myhc-? 614-629)and complete Freund's adjuvant(CFA)on day 1 and day 8,while those in control group with equal volume of mixture of phosphate buffer solution(PBS)and CFA.Groups of mice were sacrificed respectively on day 21,day 75 and day 120 after the first immunization.Hematoxylin and eosin(H-E)staining was used to identify the areas of inflammation,and Masson staining was used to identify the areas of fibrosis.The Tenascin-C protein expression in myocardium was detected by Western blotting.The content of serum procollagen type-Ⅲ amino-terminal propeptide(PⅢNP)was measured by radioimmunoassay.The correlation between Tenascin-C protein expression and content of serum PⅢNP was analyzed.Results On day 21,inflammatory infiltration in the myocardium was remarkable,with slight deposition of collagen in the interstitial tissue.On day 75 and day 120,inflammatory infiltration in myocardium was markedly reduced,but with more marked deposition of collagen.The Tenascin-C protein expression in myocardium and the content of serum PⅢNP were significantly higher in experimental group than in control group(P
RESUMO
AIM: This study was designed to investigate the secretion of VEGF and its receptor (flt-1 or flk-1/KDR) protein by cultured bovine thoracic aortic endothelial cells treated with various insulin concentrations. METHODS: Endothelial cells was isolated from bovine thoracic aorta, and cultured in serum-free medium, then incubated with different insulin concentrations (30 mU/L, 300 mU/L, 3 000 mU/L). The level of VEGF and its receptor (flt-1 or flk-1/KDR) protein were detected by immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS: As compared with no insulin group, the expression of VEGF protein in low insulin concentration (30 mU/L and 300 mU/L) groups were significantly increased (P0.05) was observed. CONCLUSION: Low concentration insulin up-regulates the VEGF protein expression, while high concentration insulin down-regulates the VEGF protein expression in bovine thoracic aortic endothelial cells, but insulin had no directly effect on the VEGF receptor (flt-1 or flk-1/KDR) protein expression in bovine thoracic aortic endothelial cells.

Results The contents of moisture, crude protein, total fat, total sugar and ash were 78.29%, 18.31%, 0.97%, 1.18% and 1.17%, respectively. The total amount of AA, EAA, NEAA and FTAA was 71.93%, 31.61%, 40.32% and 25.57%, respectively. 26 kinds of FA were identified. There were 6 kinds of SFA, 20 kinds of UFA. The contents of SFA, MUFA and PUFA were 26.26%, 29.61% and 39.91%, respectively. The contents of DG, TG, FFA, Cho and PL were 3.69%, 11.71%, 23.60%, 0.54% and 60.46%, respectively. Conclusion The crude protein and PUFA were high in muscle of Culter erythropterus. It was beneficial for health to eat it regularly.
