RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the application effect of high-altitude field-based teaching in acute mountain sickness.Methods:The medical students of the classes 2018 and 2019 majoring in clinical medicine were selected as subjects, and they were divided into conventional teaching group and field-based teaching group, with 20 students in each group. The students in the conventional teaching group received classroom teaching alone, and those in the field-based teaching group received high-altitude field-based teaching after theoretical lectures. The two groups were compared in terms of the theoretical knowledge of acute mountain sickness, the quality score of internship, and rescue operation score of acute mountain sickness, and questionnaire feedback and post-class discussion were performed among trainees and teachers to evaluate the high-altitude field-based teaching model. SPSS 19.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:Compared with the conventional teaching group, the field-based teaching group had significantly higher scores of the theoretical knowledge of acute mountain sickness (91.72±4.34 vs. 86.10±5.15, P<0.001), the quality score of internship (89.64±5.21 vs. 83.51±2.38, P<0.001), and the rescue operation of acute mountain sickness [94.05 (89.54, 94.87) vs. 87.01 (84.33, 90.82), P<0.001]. Conclusions:High-altitude field-based teaching can improve the teaching effect of acute mountain sickness and cultivate the interest and learning enthusiasm of students, and therefore, it holds promise for wide application.

Objective To investigate the correlation between TCM syndrome types and solar term of onset in patients with gastric cancer.Methods A total of 359 patients with gastric cancer admitted to the Cancer Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to August 2023 were included in this study,and the frequency distribution method was used to analyze their information such as sex,age,solar term of onset,differentiation,metastasis and TCM syndrome type.The solar term of onset corresponding to the onset date was calculated,and then the association between solar term of onset and TCM syndrome type in gastric cancer was analyzed.The circular distribution method was used to explore the peak of solar term of onset and TCM syndrome type.Results Among the 359 patients with gastric cancer included in this study,male patients were more than female patients(1.69∶1).The age of onset was mainly between 60 and 70 years old(117 cases,32.6%),and male patients(85 cases,72.6%)were more than female patients(32 cases,27.3%)in this age group.The most common TCM syndromes were qi and blood deficiency syndrome(160 cases,44.6%)and phlegm damp condensation syndrome(94 cases,26.2%).The onset of the disease mainly occurred in winter(132 cases,36.8%),and the peaks were light snow(31 cases,23.5%),major cold(25 cases,18.9%),heavy snow(23 cases,17.4%)and the start of winter(22 cases,16.7%).Qi and blood deficiency syndrome and phlegm damp condensation syndrome in patients with gastric cancer were correlated with solar terms and seasons(P<0.05).The 285 patients with gastric cancer were mainly poorly differentiated gastric cancer(175 cases,61.4%),mainly concentrated in winter(66 cases,37.7%).The main route of gastric cancer metastasis is lymph node metastasis,followed by liver and abdominal cavity metastasis.Conclusion Qi and blood deficiency syndrome and phlegm dampness condensation syndrome are common in patients with gastric cancer.The onset time of gastric cancer is mostly in winter,and the syndrome type is significantly correlated with the onset solar term and differentiation degree.
RESUMEN
Symptomatic spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) following spinal surgery is rare but one of the serious complications. SSEH can leave devastating neurological consequences if missing the optimal timing for treatment. The early diagnosis of SSEH is critical to the neurologic recovery, and MRI examination can help to check the location and the scope of the hematoma and provide imaging information for surgical operation. The risk factors of SSEH can be divided into preoperative factors, intraoperative factors and postoperative factors. The occurrence of SSEH can be minimized by controlling the risk factors, exact hemostasis and reasonable perioperative management. Patients with mild paralysis can choose conservative treatment, while patients with severe or progressive nerve injury (manual muscle testing <3) and unendurable nerve root pain should choose to clean the hematoma and decompress the nerve as soon as possible.
RESUMEN
Objective To observe the effect of Jianpi Buxue Decoction on the protein expression of neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R) and CD34 in C57BL/6 mice of lung cancer after chemotherapy, and to explore the improvement of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting and myelosuppression treated with Jianpi Buxue Decoction. Methods Forty C57BL/6 mice were transplanted with Lewis lung cancer cells in the armpit of left anterior limb after being fed for 7 days, and then were randomly divided into lung cancer group, model group, and high-, middle- and low-dose Chinese medicine groups. Model group and Chinese medicine groups were injected intraperitoneally with cyclophosphamide (80 mg/kg) for one day. Lung cancer group and model group were given normal saline. Chinese medicine groups were administered with high-, middle- and low-dose of Jianpi Buxue Decoction (25, 12.6, 6.25 g/kg respectively) for 14 days. After the modeling, all of the mice were sacrificed, and then the brains and spleens were sampled. Western blotting method was used to detect the protein expression of NK1R and CD34. Results Compared with lung cancer group, the protein expression of cerebral NK1R and splenic CD34 in the model group was increased significantly ( P<0.01) . Compared with the model group, the protein expression of NK1R in mice brain tissues of high-, middle- and low- dose Jianpi Buxue Decoction groups was decreased significantly (P<0.01) , while the protein expression of CD34 in spleen tissues of middle-and low-dose Jiangpi Buxue Decoction groups was increased obviously ( P<0.05) . Conclusion Jianpi Buxue Decoction has an effect on down-regulating the protein expression of NK1R in brain tissues and on up-regulating the protein expression of CD34 in spleen tissues of C57BL/6 mice with lung cancer after chemotherapy, indicating that Jianpi Buxue Decoction probably can relieve chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and can improve the myelosuppression after chemotherapy.

【Objective】 To explore the therapeutic mechanismof arsenic trioxide(AS2O3),the active component of arsenolitumininhibitingtumor.【Methods】Humanlung adenocarcinoma cells(LAC) at logarithmic growth phase were culturedin vitro for 24 hours,and then were cocultured with arsenic trioxide(AS2O3) in the dosages of 0.75,1.0,1.5 and 2.0 mg/Lrespectively.Meanwhile,model control group was set up.The morphological features of LAC in different groups were observed under reverse microscope,growth-inhibitory rate of LAC was examined by methylthiazolyltetrazolium(MTT) assay,andthe expression of p53 gene was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) method.【Results】AS2O3in different dosages obviously inhibited the proliferation of LACin a time-effect manner,and markedly increased the expression of p53 gene(P
RESUMEN
Objective To observe the effects of arsenic trioxide(As2O3)on the expressions of TNF-?,Fas and bcl-2 in lung adenocarcinoma cells(LAC)and to explore the mechanism of arsenic trioxide inducing apoptosis.Methods The expressions of TNF-?,Fas and bcl-2 in lung adenocarcinoma cells pretreated by arsenious acid were determined by the double antibody sandwich ABC-ELISA method.Results Compared with the control group,As2O3 showed no effects on the contents of bcl-2 in lung adenocarcinoma cells after 72 hours treatment,but increased the contents of TNF-? and Fas significantly,and the effects in different concentration groups had significant differences.The protein expressions of TNF-? and Fas showed a tendency of concentration-dependent increasing.Conclusions The results suggest that As2O3 induces the apoptosis of LAC cells possibly by up-regulating the expression of TNF-? and Fas.
