The sunflower protein concentrate studied in this paper is a new developed food protein resource in Heilongjiang Province. Up to now the studied report on this product has not been seen in China. Using casein as reference protein and soy protein isolate and gluten from wheat flour as comparable substances we studied the content of major nutrients and the composition of essential amino acid in the sunflower protein concentrate by chemical analysis method, and also studied protein efficiency ratio (PER) and other indicators related to nitrogen metabolism in the animal experiment by the recommended method of AOAC. Some common harmful substances in the samples were examined quantitatively. The results showed that the protein content (as anhydrate basic), the PER, apparent digestibility, the true digestibility, the biological value, and NPU of the sunflower protein concentrate were 62.43%, 1.96, 96.83%, 98.51%, 96.81% and 95.35% respectively. The essential amino acid composition was the same as analogous products prepared in other countries. The blood indicators and pathological observation of tested rats were normal. The content of several harmful substances in the product was allowable.All of these results indicated that the nutritional quality of the sunflower protein concentrate is about the same with some similar porducts prepared in other countries. We believe that these products are safe to consumers in the aspect of food hygiene.

Objective:To explore the effect of intensified electrocardiogram (ECG) identification by using spectrogram for the monitoring and nursing ability of nurses who worked in department of cardiology.Methods: Monitoring and nursing capacity of 120 nurses of cardiology who had been trained on the intensified ECG identification by using spectrogram were researched by retrospective analysis. The 120 nurses were divided into control group (60 cases) and intervention group (60 cases) as the random number table. The nurses of control group only received routine training of ECG identification, while the nurses of intervention group received the training of using spectrogram for ECG identification on basic routine training of control group. A series of indicators, including the scores of ECG comprehensive application ability, identification ability of abnormal electrocardiogram, and the number of the identified abnormal malignance ECG and successfully treated patients, between the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results: After the training, the scores of basic theory, abilities of description and recording, and analysis ability in field operation of the intervention group were significantly higher than those of the control group, respectively (t=11.896,t=8.596,t=8.283,P<0.05). The identified ability including room speed, atrial flutter, ventricular flutter and other abnormal ECG of intervention group were significantly better than these of control group, respectively (x2=18.836,x2=17.698,x2=16.773,P<0.05). Besides, the discovery rate of abnormal malignance ECG (73.3%) and the successful rate of treatment (100.0%)of intervention group were significantly higher than that (31.7% and 81.7%) of control group, respectively (x2=19.184,x2=10.484,P<0.05). Conclusion:The training of intensified ECG identification by using spectrogram for nurse of cardiology can effectively enhance the capacities of identification for ECG and comprehensive application for nurses, and can faster confirm the situation of patient, and can contribute to achieve precision diagnosis for doctors.

Grasses infected by endophytes have an extraordinary impact on the ecology and economy of pasture and turf. In this review, we presented recent research progress on origin and evolution, biological and ecological impact, and perspective of the association in order to make full use of the widely distributed endophyte resources.

[Objective]To observe the relationship between blood uric acid(UA)level and carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)in perimenopausal women.[Methods] Two hundred and thirty-three perimenopausal women were selected.Intima media thickness(IMT)of bilateral carotid arteries were measured by colour Doppler ultrasound.They were divided into normal group(162 cases)and CAS group(71 cases)according to the results of colour Doppler ultrasound.The level of blood UA between two groups was compared and the influence factors of CAS we re analyzed.[Results] The level of blood UA in CAS group was significantly higher than that in normal group[(341 ± 86)μ mol/L vs.(293±78)μ mol/L](P ＜ 0.05).The detection rate of hyperuricemia in normal group was 10.49％(17/162),while the detection rate in CAS group was 40.85％(29/71),which had statistical significance between two groupe(P＜0.01).Pearson correlation analysis showed that CAS had positive correlation with age(r=0.233,P=0.028),body mass index(BMI)(r=0.215,P=0.044),bloodUA(r=0.249,P=0.019)and fasting plasma ghcose(r=0.214,P=0.046).AndCASwas negatively correlated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol(r=-0.224,P=0.036).Logistic regression analysis showed that after the factors of age and BMI were corrected,CAS still had significantly positive correlation with the level of blood UA(OR＝4.805,95％ CI 1.700-11.673,P ＜ 0.05).[Conclusion]Hyperuricemia is a related risk factor of the incidence of carotid atherosclerosis in perimenopausal women.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect and adverse reactions of radioactive seed interstitial brachytherapy com-bined with etoposide (EP) regimen concurrent chemoradiotherapy treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Methods:All 24 cases of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer received three-dimensional conformal intensity modulated radiation therapy by using 6 MV X-ray to obtain 95%60-66 Gy/30-33 F planning target volume. All cases received radiation therapy five times a week. EP regimen chemotherapy concurrent with radiotherapy was given to 24 patients. The therapy included VP-16, 60 mg/m2 intravenous in-fusion for 1 d to 5 d, and DDP 50 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on the 1st, 8th, and 28th therapy day. Chemotherapy with EP regimen was given for four cycles, in which two cycles were given during radiotherapy and the remaining cycles were completed after radiotherapy. The patients were reexamined three months after concurrent chemoradiotherapy was completed. Patients with residual tumor, con-firmed via positron emission tomography/computed tomography, underwent 125I radioactive seed implantation interstitial brachytherapy to complement the dose of tumor. Results: The response rate was 83.3% (20/24); the local control rates of 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months were 87.5% (21/24), 83.3% (20/24), 75.0% (18/24), 70.8% (17/24), 58.3% (14/24), and 50.0% (12/24). The median survival was 20.2 months. The one-year survival rate was 62.5%, and the two-year survival rate was 37.5%. The following main toxicities were observed:the incidence of radiation-induced lung injury was 25%;the incidence of radiation esophagitis was 33.3%;the incidence of grades Ⅰ to Ⅱ gastrointestinal reactions was 82.3%; the incidence of reducing neutropenia was 87.5%, in which the incidence of gradesⅠtoⅡwas 75.0%, gradeⅢwas 12.5%, and gradeⅣwas 0%. Conclusion:EP regimen concurrent radiotherapy and chemo-therapy combined with radioactive seed interstitial brachytherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer is effective and has few serious adverse reactions, thus making this approach worthy of promotion.
