Objective:To investigate the modulatory effect of gonadal hormone on peripheral pain.Methods:Orchiectomized and ovariectomized rats models were established.Radio heater and Von-Frey hair were used to determine the peripheral mechani- cal and thermal pain threshold in gonadectomized rats and their corresponding sham-controls.Results:The body weight was in- creased and the uterus weight was decreased after ovariectomy in female rats(P

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of survivin and p63 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of survivin and p63 in the lymphnode tissues from DLBCL patients and lymph node reactive proliferation.Results The positive expression rate of p63 and survivin proteins in DLBCL patients was 63.5 %(33/52) and 76.9 %(40/52), respectively. p63 was not expressed in lymph node reative proliferation. The positive expression rate of survivin in lymph node reactive proliferation was 20.0 %. The expression rates of survivin and p63 between two groups was significant different. The replase rate of groups with positive expression of survivin and p63 were higher than that of the negative groups. The mean survival in groups with positive expression of survivin and p63 were shorter than that of the negative groups. Conclusion Survivin and p63 are useful in therapeutic and prognostic assessment. Patients with poor prognostic can be screened out in the early period of treatment using expression of survivin and p63, which may help to improve the outcome of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Objective: To investigate the modulatory effect of gonadal hormone on peripheral pain. Methods: Orchiectomized and ovariectomized rats models were established. Radio heater and Von-Frey hair were used to determine the peripheral mechanical and thermal pain threshold in gonadectomized rats and their corresponding sham-controls. Results: The body weight was increased and the uterus weight was decreased after ovariectomy in female rats(P<0.01). There was no significant change in the body weight of mate rats after orchiectomization. The 100% hind paw withdrawal threshold to Von-Frey hair stimulation was decreased significantly after ovariectomization in female rats, with no significant change in the thermal pain threshold. There was no significant changes in the 100% hind paw withdrawal threshold after Von-Frey hair stimulation or thermal pain threshold after orchidectomy in male rats. Conclusion: These results suggest that changes in androgen level of male rats have no influence on the peripheral basal pain threshold, and female gonadal hormone may inhibit the peripheral pain signaling and has no effect on thermal pain threshold.

Objective We tried to investigate the current status of pediatric nursing post setting and analyze the practical application effect in the clinical working practice for the foundation of readjusting and setting up the pediatric nursing positions.Methods By convenient sampling method,the general condition and current post setting situation in the pediatric wards of 7 hospitals with self-designed questionnaires were investigated.The results underwent analysis Results The nursing post setting in pediatric wards of 7 hospitals were not all the same,nursing posts in the pediatric ward included three categories:management positions,teaching positions and clinical positions.Management positions included the head nurse,deputy head nurse and head nurse assistant; teaching positions included the teaching secretary and clinical total teaching nurse; the seven kinds of clinical nursing positions were office job,day shift,night shift,evening shift,midnight shift,late-morning shift,auxiliary job.Though some nursing jobs differed in the position names and working hours,their job contents were nearly identical.Conclusions Pediatric nursing post setting management in our country is still in the exploratory stage at present,it has not form a unified perfect job management system.Pediatric nursing positions should be set from the perspective of evidencebased theory,satisfying the demands of patients as the guidance,coming from clinical needs as the first principle,in the full implementation of the accountability for nursing and based on comprehensive consideration of various factors,so that the post setting can be scientific and reasonable.

Objective To compare the effects of total intravenous anesthesia or Intravenous-in-halation combined anesthesia on intraoperative somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP)and motor evoked potential (MEP)in spinal surgery.Methods Sixty patients scheduled for spinal surgery under general anesthesia were divided randomly and equally into 2 groups.The anesthesia was maintained with TCI propofol (plasma target concentration 3.0-3.5 μg/ml)and 1% sevoflurane+propofol in group T or group I respectively.BIS was monitored and maintained at 40-50.SSEP and MEP was re-corded before induction of anaesthesia (T0 ),5 minutes after tracheal intubation (T1 ),during skin in-cision (T2 )and at the time of decompressing spinal canal (T3 ).Results The latency of P38 and N45 prolonged,and the amplitudes of P38 and N45 was significantly depressed at T1-T3 compared to those at T0 (P <0.05).No statistically significant differences in cortical SSEP amplitudes or latency was observed in each time point.There was no case who could not detect the wave of MEP intraoperative-ly in this study.Conclusion The data from these cases indicates that 1% sevoflurane can be used in conjunction with SSEP and MEP monitoring for some adult patients undergoing spinal surgery.

Objective To evaluate the influence of the duration of patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA)on pain and gastrointestinal function after gynecological abdominal surgery.Methods Patients who received gynecological abdominal surgery were divided into 3 groups according to using time of PCIA for 24 hours,48 hours,72 hours.There were 30 cases in each group.Pain intensity,gastrointestinal peristalsis time,anal exhaust time,getting out-of-bed time,voluntary micturition time,nausea and vomiting were compared among three groups after stopping PCIA.Results There were no significant differences in VAS score among three groups at each time point.There were no significant differences in voluntary micturition time among three groups.The anal exhaust time,getting out-of-bed time in 24-hour group were earlier than those of the other two groups,the differences were significant; The nausea and vomiting in 24-hour group were lower than the other two groups,the difference was significant.Conclusions The application of PCIA can effectively relieve acute pain 24 hours after surgery,but the effect was not obvious on pain induced by activities after 24 hours.But the side effects induced by analgesia pump(anesthetic)still work,such as vomiting,long duration of discharge,activity inconvenience.So PCIA should be stopped at right time in order to reduce complications and facilitate for recovery of patients after the surgery.

Regulatory T cell (Treg) infiltration is an important mechanism for inhibition of tumor immune microenvironment. Treg is highly expressed in peripheral blood and tumor tissue of various cancer patients. A high expression of Treg may inhibit the antitumor effect of CD4 + CD8 + T lymphocytes or induce immunological resistance to tumor antigens among cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTL) without producing acute or memory CTL responses, resulting in tumor escape from immuneattack and immune suppressionin in the tumor microenvironment.

0.05). Conclusions Pathological changes may occur after interstitial radiotherapy at the dose of 120 Gy,but there are no early irreversible radioactive injuries,such as bleeding and perforation.
