Development and validation of the Information Literacy Measurement Scale (ILMS-34) in Chinese public health practitioners.

Background: Public health professionals (PHPs) have increasing information needs to inform evidence-based public health decisions and practice, which requires good information literacy. A comprehensive and reliable assessment tool is necessary to assess PHPs' literacy and guide future promotion programs. However, there is a lack of measurement tools specifically for the information literacy of PHPs.

"Awake" Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Combined With Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy For the Treatment of Severe Chemical Gas Inhalation Lung Injury.

Lung injury caused by chemical gas inhalation is a common clinically severe disease that very easily progresses to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Traditional respiratory support consists mainly of mechanical ventilation, but the prognosis of this condition is still poor. "Awake" extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) maintains oxygenation, improves ventilation, adequately allows the injured lungs to rest, and avoids complications associated with sedation, intubation, and mechanical ventilation.

[Effect of angiotensin II on the expression of aquaporin 1 in lung of rats following acute lung injury].

Objective: To investigate the effect of angiotensin II (Ang II) on the expression of aquaporin 1 (AQP1) in lung of rats with acute lung injury (ALI) and the role of Ang II in the formation of lung edema.

Methods: Forty healthy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, model group, Ang II receptor blocker pretreatment group, and Ang II receptor blocker treatment group according to random digits table, with 10 rats in each group. ALI model of rats was reproduced with administration of endotoxin after hemorrhagic shock.

Expression of heat shock protein 70 in lung tissues of acute paraquat poisoned rats and intervention of ulinastatin.

Background: Paraquat (PQ) is an effective herbicide and is widely used in agricultural production, but PQ poisoning is frequently seen in humans with the lung as the target organ. Clinically pulmonary pathological changes are often used to predict the severity and prognosis of the patients. In this study, we observed the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in rat lung after PQ poisoning and to investigate the therapeutic effects of ulinastatin.
