1.Significance of pancreatic stone protein in pancreatic injury and sepsis
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2014;(11):1093-1096
Pancreatic stone protein (PSP) is the product of exocrine pancreas mainly synthesized and secreted by the pancreas acinar cells, a small amount secreted by gastrointestinal cells. PSP is one of stress protein family members secreted in the pancreas. PSP increased in acute and chronic pancreatitis, diabetes, inlfammatory bowel disease and gastrointestinal tumors. In recent years, some studies showed that PSP has potential clinical value in pancreatic injury and sepsis. In this article, we reviewed the progress of pancreatic stone protein in pancreatic injury and sepsis.

Objective:This study aimed to investigate the relationship between estrogen receptor (ER) and Bcl-2 in cervical can-cer and precancerous lesions. Methods:ER and Bcl-2 were evaluated by immunohistochemistry in 20 non-tumor tissues, 30 low-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasias, 70 high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasias, and 80 cervical cancers. Results:The positive rate of ER was 75%in non-tumor tissues;this rate decreased with disease severity (χ2=24.266, P<0.01). The overexpression of ER protein was remarkably lower in cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN) Ⅱ-Ⅲ and carcinomas than in non-tumorous cervices. Differences were not significant between CINⅠand non-tumorous cervices (χ2=0.751, P=0.386). Furthermore, ER expression was not correlated with histological type and tumor grade. The positive rate of Bcl-2 was 75.38%in squamous cell carcinoma. This rate increased with dis-ease severity (χ2=27.715, P<0.01). The Bcl-2 protein overexpression was remarkably higher in CINⅠ, CINⅡ-Ⅲ, and carcinomas than in non-tumorous cervices. Bcl-2 expression was also not correlated with histological type (P=0.500);by comparison, Bcl-2 expression was correlated with tumor pathological grade (χ2=4.862, P=0.027). The co-expression of ER and Bcl-2 was 38.57%and 15.38%in CINⅡ-Ⅲand squamous cell carcinoma, respectively;the differences between these two values were significant (χ2=9.108, P=0.003). A cor-relation between ER and Bcl-2 was observed in CINⅡ-Ⅲ(r=0.506, P<0.01);no correlation was observed between other groups. Con-clusion: ER expression was inversely correlated with Bcl-2 in cervical cancer progression. The co-expression of these markers may have an important function in the course of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.

Objective To explore the relationship between quality life and TCM constitutions of elderly patients with hypertension in a community in Shanghai; To provide the basis for the suitable and feasible community elderly hypertension management method. Methods Through multistage stratified sampling method, 808 elderly patients with hypertension in the community were investigated for their life quality and TCM constitutions on the basis of inform consent and voluntary participation. The life quality and TCM constitution characteristics as well as the relationship were analyzed by applying the statistic analysis software. Results Among the investigated elderly patients with hypertension in the community, 97.28% cases’ overall life quality was above the middle level and 91.46% cases’ self-evaluated health and quality of life scores were above the middle level. 54.70% cases were gentleness type, and the biased constitution was dominated by qi deficiency, yang asthenia, yin asthenia and phlegmatic hygrosis. The relationship between life quality and TCM constitutions may be existent. If TCM constitutions tended to be gentleness type, the physical score and the psychological score would be higher, which leaded to better quality of life. Conclusion TCM constitution characteristics are associated with quality life of elderly hypertension patients in the community. Intervention targeted on the results of TCM constitution identification would be better to prevent and control hypertension and improve health level and quality of life.
