Background: Patients undergoing laparoscopic resection of liver metastases of colorectal cancer are prone to negative emotions and decrease of digestive function. Early nursing and psychological intervention are necessary.
Aim: To observe the effect of enhanced recovery nursing combined with mental health education on postoperative recovery and mental health of patients undergoing laparoscopic resection of liver metastases of colorectal cancer.
Exercise training exerts protective effects against diabetic nephropathy. This study aimed to investigate whether exercise training could attenuate diabetic renal injury via regulating endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H S) production. First, C57BL/6 mice were allocated into the control, diabetes, exercise, and diabetes + exercise groups.

Methods: 17 subjects in experimental group and 15 subjects in control group completed the study.
Pneumoconiosis, an interstitial lung disease that occurs from breathing in certain kinds of damaging dust particles, is a major occupational disease in China. Patients diagnosed with occupational pneumoconiosis can avail of free medical treatment, whereas patients without a diagnosis of occupational diseases cannot not claim free medical treatment in most provinces from the government before 2019. This study aimed to analyze the priority of medical facility selection and its influencing factors among patients with pneumoconiosis.

Links between hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress and NACHT, LRR, and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation have been reported in the pathogenesis of diabetes. The present study aimed to elucidate the contribution of NLRP3-mediated apoptotic/pyroptotic neuronal cell death to diabetes-associated depression.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of wilting and additives on the fermentation quality, structural and non-structural carbohydrate composition of mulberry silages.
Methods: The selected LAB strains Lactobacillus (L.) plantarum 'LC279063' (L1), commercial inoculant Gaofuji (GF), and Trichoderma viride cellulase (CE) were used as additives for silage preparation.
The objective of this study was to examine the fermentation quality and aerobic stability of mulberry (Morus alba L.) silage prepared with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and propionic acid (PA). The selected LAB strains Lactobacillus (L.

This study aimed to investigate whether prophylactic intervention with exercise training attenuates lung fibrosis via modulating endogenous hydrogen sulphde (H S) generation.
Methods: First, ICR mice were allocated to Control, Bleomycin, Exercise, and Bleomycin + Exercise groups.
Objective: Low-level high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) increases in elderly population. In this study, the relationship between hs-cTnT level and all-cause death of elderly inpatients with non-acute coronary syndrome (non-ACS) after discharge from the hospital was investigated.
Materials And Methods: Non-ACS patients aged >65 years admitted in the General Practice Wards and Department of Geriatrics of Fuxing Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University were enrolled in the study.
Growing evidence suggests that inflammatory processes may be involved in depressive disorders. Inflammation is known to induce mitochondrial dysfunction in the nervous system. However, whether mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in the occurrence of inflammation-induced depressive-like behavior remains to be investigated.

Method: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted of all randomized controlled trials published in English that compared compensatory sweating after lowering or restricting the level of sympathectomy. The Cochrane collaboration tool was used to assess the risk of bias, and the Mantel-Haenszel odds ratio method was used for the meta-analysis.
DNA methylation has an important role in the development of carcinomas. As a metastasis suppressor gene, Raf kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP) suppresses tumor cell invasion and metastasis. In the present study, the associations between RKIP protein expression and promoter methylation with clinicopathological parameters, prognosis and survival rates in gastric adenocarcinoma were investigated.

Methods: The cell viability was analyzed by MTT method and the radical scavenging activity of CF was examined by DPPH (1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl). The morphological changes were observed by Hoechst 33258 staining assay, and the apoptosis rate of PC12 cells was detected by propidium iodide stain flow cytometry (FCM).
In the process of investigating the hypolipidemic effects of Spirulina platensis, we found that the aqueous extract of S. platensis may inhibit the intestinal absorption of dietary fat by inhibiting pancreatic lipase activity. The aqueous extract of S.

Objective: To clarify the distribution of genetic polymorphism of D3S1358, D13S317, D5S818, D6S1043, D2S1772, D7S3048 loci of the Mongolian population in Ximeng pastoral area and construct the relevant genetic database.
Methods: Multiplex PCR and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were used to investigate the polymorphism of 6 short tandem repeat (STR) loci in 286 individuals of the Mongolian population.
Results: In this study, 6, 9, 8, 11, 14, 11 alleles were observed at the 6 STR loci respectively.

Shark cartilage acid mucopolysaccharide (SCAMP) was extracted from cartilage by the improved method, then we can get SCAMP-F1 and SCAMP-F2 from SCAMP by sepharose-4B chromatography. It was improved that SCAMP-F2 had only one component by sepharose-4B chromatography, PAGE (polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) and especial centrifuge. At the same time, SCAMP-F2 reacted with sulfated reagents (composed of chlorosulfonic acid and pyridine), and sulfated SCAMP-F2 was obtained.
