Objective:To detect the expressions of survivin, galectin-3 and thyroid peroxidase in papillary thyroid microcarcinoma ( PTMC) and cancer adjacent normal tissue to explore the clinical significant.The correlations between the expressions of survivin,Gal-3 and TPO with BRAFV600E gene mutation in PTMC were analyzed.Methods: The expressions of survivin,Gal-3 and TPO were measured by immunohistochemical ( IHC ) method in 56 cases of PTMC tissue and adjacent normal tissue; BRAFV600E mutation was detected by PCR amplification and subsequently sequencing.Chi square test was used to analyse the relation in the expression rates of survivin,Gal-3 and TPO and BRAFV600E gene mutation.Results:The survivin and Gal-3 were strongly expressed but TPO was negatively expressed.The survivin and Gal-3 were negative in adjacent normal tissues but TPO was expressed.There were sig-nificant differences in the expression rates of survivin, Gal-3 and TPO between PTMC tissue and adjacent normal tissue (all P<0.001).The BRAFV600E mutation rate (32.1%) and the expression rates of survivin,Gal-3 and TPO in PTMC tissue were found to be positively related to lymph node metastases (P=0.009,P=0.025,P=0.007,P=0.008),and negatively related to gender and age (all P>0.05).There were no correlation was found between the expressions of survivin,Gal-3,TPO and the BRAFV600E gene mutation in PTMC(all P>0.05).Conclusion: The strong expressions of survivin and Gal-3,the mild expression of TPO and BRAF mutation may be important in the development of PTMC,and the detection of BRAFV600E gene mutation and the expressions of survivin, Gal-3 and TPO could be used to the judgment of pathogenetic condition and prognostic outcomes.

Objective:To construct a Question Prompt List of information needs for patients with interstitial lung disease, providing a tool for patients with interstitial lung disease to actively obtain disease-related information.Methods:A literature study was conducted based on the three core needs (ERG) theory framework of existence,relatedness and growth. A purposive sampling method was used to select 15 patients with interstitial lung disease from Drum Tower Hospital, Medical School of Nanjing University from December 2021 to January 2022 for descriptive research. Based on literature research and qualitative research, the initial items of the Question Prompt List were determined through expert inquiry, and the items were extracted, discussed, and adjusted, and finalized the list of information needs and prompts for patients with interstitial lung disease.Results:The 19 experts participated in the consultation, with a positive coefficient of 100.0% and 94.7% for two rounds of consultation, an authoritative coefficient of 0.91 and 0.92, and the Kendall coordination coefficient of 0.31 and 0.23, respectively. Finally, a list of interstitial lung disease patients′ question prompts containing 4 primary indicators and 34 secondary indicators was formed.Conclusions:Based on the ERG theory, the research method for the Question Prompt List of information needs for patients with interstitial lung disease is scientific and reliable, and can be used in clinical practice to help patients inquire and obtain the necessary information.

Objective To explore the impact of self-management support on the behavior and metabolic parameters of type 2 diabetic patients with obesity.Methods A total of 96 inpatients of type 2 diabetes with obesity,who hospitalized in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from October 2014 to March 2015, were randomly assigned to control group and intervention group with 49 cases and 47 cases respectively.The patients in the control group received routine health education,while the patients in the intervention group were given self-management support by educational team with eight members constituted by physicians,nurse educators,dietitians,psychologists,etc.additionally.The patients in both groups were followed up for 3 months,self-management behaviors,body weight,body mass index (BMI ), waist circumference and glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)that measured before and 3 months after the intervention.Results The self-management behaviors in the intervention group were significantly better than those in the control group after the intervention (P <0.05 ).The values of HbA1c and waist circumference [(7.14 ±0.68 )%,(94.82 ± 8.90)cm]in the intervention group were significantly lower than [(7.70 ±0.58)% ,(98.31 ±6.38)cm]in the control group after the intervention (P <0.05).The body weight and body mass index(BMI)changed were not significantly compared with the control group (P >0.05 ).Conclusions Self-management support can improve the patients′self management behavior,reduce blood sugar,waist circumference and the risk factors for the occurrence of chronic complications.

Objective To evaluate the effect of applying nursing cases in promoting accuracy of nursing grading . Methods A specialized-group of nursing cases was built to clear up the problems in nursing grading by using quality control system. The researchers surveyed the accuracy of nursing grading of 84 patients with activities of daily living ( ADL) score less than or equal to 60 ( ADL≤60) in two wards before and after the improvement project. The researchers compared the relative knowledge of nursing grading and sense of dynamically adapting nursing grading of 20 resident doctors, and self-ability of 7 nurses in specialized-group of nursing cases before and after the improvement project. Results The relative knowledge of nursing grading, ability of dynamically adapting classification and accuracy of classification were higher than before (χ2=42. 15, 8. 09,12.2;P<0. 01). The abilities of promoting nursing cases, communication, solving problem, reading literatures were significantly higher than before(t=-3.16,-4.90,-2.57,-4.90,-2.93;P<0.05). The dimension of responsibility had no significant difference ( t=-1.84,P=0.090) . Conclusions Nursing cases is effective in improving the accuracy of nursing grading, and promoting the ability and sense of improving nursing cases actively.
