From 1990 to 1992, 41 patients with ulcerating or fistulized esophageal carcinoma (EC) were treated by the conventional irradiaton after a nasogastric tube was inserted into the esophageal lumen. The total doses were 60～65GY/6～6.5WKS. The results were: 1/1 CR in patients with small ulcer, 10/13 CR and 2/13 PR in patients with medium-sized ulcer, 2/7 CR and 3/7 PR in patients with large ulcer, 3/10 CR and 5/10 PR in patients with esophageal mediastinal fistula and 1/10 CR and 4/10 PR in patients with esophagel tracheal or bronchial fistula. The total remission rate was 75.6%(31/41). The 1-and 2-year survival rates were 42.8%, 26.6% for EC with ulcer and 25%, 10% for EC with fistula, respectively.

Objective To discuss the feasibility of developing psychological pressure assessment tools coping with hospitalized patients based on Neuman systems model. Methods We analyzed the fea-sibility of developing assessing tools specifically by theoretical analysis, literature review and case study.Results It was proved that Neuman systems model was suitable for guiding the development and applica-tion of assessment tools for evaluating the psychological pressure. Conclusions Neuman Systems Model could effectively evaluate the psychological pressure of non-psychiatric settings. Therefore, it can be con-cluded that the model is suitable for developing the psychological assessment tools for hospitalized patients.

Objective To discuss the compatibility and current situation of social support and the influencing factors of nursing undergraduate students. Methods The university student compatible meter and the the social support meter were used to investigate 394 nursing undergraduate students and the re-sult underwent analysis. Results (1)The difference existed in compatibility and social support in un-dergraduate students of different grades. (2)The compatibility of students was correlated with the physical state and the properties of their high school. (3)The social support of the undergraduate students was cor-related with the disposition and the relations with their family.
