Objective To evaluate the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and their relation with tumor invasion and metastasis in transitional cell carcinoma of bladder (TCCB). Methods Immunohistochemistry of EliVision were respectively used to determine the MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression in tumor tissues of 46 patients with TCCB and 14 cases of control group which were screened quantitatively (3-5 cm of surrounding tumor) between August 2006 and August 2008. Results Expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in TCCB are obviously higher than the normal control group (P <0.01), expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in level Ⅱ,Ⅲ are obviously higher than in level Ⅰ (P <0.01), but there was no significant relationship between high stage or level Ⅲ and low stage or level Ⅱ (P >0.05). Conclusion The positive expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in tumor tissues correlated with the malignant degree, invasion and metastasis of TCCB, MMP-2, MMP-9 could be useful indicators for the assessment of prognosis of TCCB.

Objective To evaluate the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2 O3 ) on the proliferation of human renal carcinoma cell line 786-O ,and to explore the changes of the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway .Methods Human renal cancer cells 786-O was cultured in 96-well plates ,and divided into the control group (n= 45 holes) and the experimental group (n= 45 holes) .After stimulation by 1 μM As2 O3 and saline ,the cells in 15 holes were collected at 0 ,12 ,and 24 h .BrdU assay was performed to quantify DNA synthesis to evaluate the cells proliferation ,the quantitative PCR was used to measure PI3K and Akt relative mRNA expression ,and Western blot was used to quantify the relative expression levels of of intracellular PI 3K and Akt .Results After 12 ,24 h of As2 O3 stimula-tion ,the amount of DNA synthesis in the observation group was gradually lower than that of the DNA synthesis at 0 h(P<0 .05) and significantly lower than that of the control group at 12 h and 24 h(P<0 .05) .At 0 ,12 ,24 h ,the relative expression level of in-tracellular PI3K and Akt mRNA and protein in the observation group had no significant difference (P>0 .05) ,and the relative ex-pression levels of PI3K and Akt mRNA and protein in the control group were increased as the proliferation was gradually increased . Conclusion As2 O3 inhibits human renal carcinoma cell line 786-O proliferation through inhibiting the PI3K-Akt transduction path-way ,and has potential clinical value for the treatment of kidney cancer .

Objective To understand the degree of resilience of emergency nurses and ICU nurses, and analyze the effects of resilience on work engagement of nurses working in the emergency and ICU departments in tertiary hospitals in Chengdu city. Methods This was a cross-sectional survey. A total number of 660 nurses from7 hospital in Chengdu were selected by a convenient sampling method. Results The mean resilience score of the emergency and ICU nurses in Sichuan province was (123.07± 23.76) points, the mean score of work engagement was(2.70±1.20) points. There was a positive relationship between emergency and ICU nurses′ resilience score and nurses′ work engagement (r=0.394, P < 0.01). Nurses with higher level of resilience indicated higher work engagement score (F=35.77, P < 0.05). Conclusions The resilience score of the emergency and ICU nurses in tertiary hospitals of Chengdu city was at a low level. Higher resilient emergency and ICU nurses tended to have the higher level of work engagement.

Objective To compare the effects of general anesthesia versus combined epidural?general anesthesia on postoperative complications in the patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Methods Two hundred twenty?one patients of both sexes, aged 18-80 yr, weighing 36-100 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ?Ⅲ, scheduled for elective thoracic surgery, were randomly divided into either combined epidural?general anesthesia group ( group GE, n=112) or general anesthesia group ( group GA, n=109) . The patients were further allocated to high?risk population and low?risk population. Anesthesia was induced with target?controlled infusion of remifentanil and iv injection of propofol, sufentanil and rocuronium. A double?lumen endotracheal tube was placed, and the patients were mechanically ventilated. Partial pressure of end?tidal CO2 was maintained at 30-40 mmHg. Anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 1% sevoflurane, target?controlled infusion of remifentanil, iv infusion of propofol, and intermittent iv boluses of sufentanil. 2% lidocaine 4 ml∕h was infused epidurally in group GE, and normal saline 4 ml∕h was given in group GA. Bispectral index value was maintained at 40-60 during surgery. Patient?controlled epidural analgesia ( PCEA ) was performed after surgery. PCEA solution contained
0.125% ropivacaine and sufentanil 0.5μg∕ml ( in 250 ml of normal saline) . The PCEA pump was set up to deliver a 2 ml bolus dose with a 20?min lockout interval and background infusion at 4 ml∕h, and visual analogue scale ( VAS) score was maintained less than 4. When VAS score ≥ 5, sufentanil 5 μg was injected intravenously as the rescue analgesic. The requirement for rescue analgesics after surgery, length of hospital stay after surgery, complications during postsurgical hospital stay ( cardiovascular events, cardiac insufficiency, acute coronary syndrome, pulmonary infection, stroke, transient cerebral ischemic attack) , and death within 30 days after surgery were recorded. Results Compared with group GE, the incidence of postsurgical cardiovascular events and atrial fibrillation was significantly decreased in group GA ( P<0.05) . In the high?risk population, compared with group GE, the length of hospital stay after surgery was significantly shortened, and the incidence of postsurgical atrial fibrillation was decreased in group GA ( P<0.05) . In the low?risk population, compared with group GE, the length of hospital stay after surgery was significantly shortened (P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of postsurgical complications, requirement for rescue analgesics after surgery, and fatality rate in group GA (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with combined epidural?general anesthesia, general anesthesia alone provides lower occurrence of postsurgical complications for the patients undergoing thoracic surgery, and offers advantage for the high?risk patients having underlying diseases before surgery.
