Objective To analyze the indoor radon level and distribution characteristic in different geological background by studying the indoor radon level in three typical areas in Zhuhai City.Methods The region of investigation includes three districts:granite area in Zhuhai District,granite area in Doumen District and the Quaternary sedimentary area in Doumen District.Activated charcoal adsorption method was used to measure the indoor radon concentrations.In some sampling sites,solid state nuclear track detectors were used at the same time for the indoor radon measurement.Results The average indoor radon level included 80 buildings was (66.0 ± 49.8) Bq/m3 using activated charcoal adsorption method and the maximum value was 1078.5 Bq/m3.The results of 23 sampling sites show that the average indoor radon level using solid state nuclear track detectors was (88.8 ± 49.1) Bq/m3,and (69.5 ± 37.7) Bq/m3 by activated charcoal adsorption method.The indoor radon concentration was (73.6 ± 61.0),(87.5 ± 58.3) and (48.6 ± 22.6) Bq/m3 in granite area in Zhuhai District,granite area in Doumen District and the Quaternary sedimentary area in Doumen District,respectively.Conclusions The surface lithology of an area has a certain impact on the indoor radon level.The indoor radon level in granite area in Zhuhai District and Doumen District is apparently higher than that in the Quaternary sedimentary area in Doumen District.The study of indoor radon level and distribution characteristic should be discussed in combination with geological background of area.

Objective To understand the training effect and discuss psychiatric nurse specialists training′s influence on the core competence and scientific research ability by investigating the working status of psychiatric nurse specialists with the Chinese Nursing Association certification, and in order to improve the quality of the psychiatric nurse specialists training experience. Methods 100 nurses who participated in the Chinese Nursing Association psychiatric nurse specialists training from 2010 to 2014 were chosen by random number table method. Surveyed with their core competence and scientific research ability after training to understand their working status. Results Eighty-eight valid questionnaires were recovered. Scores in core competence of nurses after training were 2.78 ± 0.55, which in the medium level;education background was the main influencing factor of core competence (t=-2.891, P<0.01). Average scientific research ability scores were 1.74 ± 0.88, which was in low level;education background and title were main influencing factors of scientific research ability (t=-3.310, F=5.922, P<0.01). After training, 62.5%(55/88) psychiatric specialist nurses undertook clinical and nursing work the night shift. 82.9%(73/88) of specialist nurse after back to the unit to undertake the teaching work. 52.2% (46/88) psychiatric specialist nurses carried out the scientific research work, and a total of 33 articles published. 79.5%(70/88) of specialist nurses thought hospital for junior nurses more seriously, 35.2% (31/88) of psychiatric specialist nurses′ units carried out the follow-up training. 6.8% (6/88) of hospital tilted in wages reward about nurse specialist, 18.2% (16/88) of hospital tilted in the cut about nurse specialist. Conclusions After training,psychiatric nurses play an important role in clinical care, research, teaching and other work, but their core competencies and research capabilities should to be improved by the further training of the hospital. Although the hospital attaches great importance to specialist nurses, but in the wage awards and title do not tilt.

Purpose To investigate the expression of transcriptional suppressor CtBP1,Zeb1,Zeb2 and their target gene E-cadherin,and their significance in cholangiocarcinoma.Methods The expression of CtBP1,Zeb1,Zeb2 and E-cadherin proteins in cholangiocarcinoma and the paired non-neoplastic tissue array were detected by the immunohistohemical staining.Results The positive rates of CtBP1 expression in cholangiocarcinoma and the paired non-neoplastic tissue were 44.44% and 17.86%,these of Zeb2 were 34.92% and 10.71%,and these of E-cadherin were 50.79% and 100%,respectively.The differences between the groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.05).There was only one case with expression of Zeb1 in cholangiocarcinoma,but no expression in the paired non-neoplastic tissue.CtBP1 was correlated with the degree of differentiation of cholangiocarcinoma (P < 0.05).Ecadherin was related to the differentiation degree,and distant metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma (all P < 0.05).The E-cadherin expression was negatively correlated with CtBP1 and Zeb2 (r =-0.034,-0.029,all P < 0.05).The Zeb2 expression was positively correlated with CtBP1 (r =0.228,P =0.005).Conclusion CtBP1,Zeb2 and E-cadherin express abnormally in cholangiocarcinoma.CtBP1,Zeb2 may be involved in the regulation of E-cadherin expression.Joint detection of CtBP1 and Ecadherin is expected to be a reference index to evaluate the malignant biological behavior of cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective To study on the clinical application and value of double-balloon video en teroscopy in diagnosing small inlestinal bleeding. Methods Fifty-four cases with suspected small intestinal bleeding were subjected to double-balloon video enteroscopy, via the mouth and /or anus in 21, 20 and 13 cases respectively, the procedure was performed under X-ray monitoring. Results The positive rate of en-doscopy was 90. 7% , the findings were isolated or multi small intestinal ulcer 11 cases, Crhon' s disease 7 cases; chronic nonspecific inflammation 6 cases, entero-mesenchymoma 6 cases; high differentiated adeno-carcinoma 3 cases; polyps 2 cases, lymphoma 1 case, stero-pro-nematodiasis 2 cases, ancylostomiasis 2 cases, vascular deformity 2 cases ( 1 with active hemorrhage) , Michael diverticulosis 2 case, iliac polydivertic ulosis 1 case, ulcerative colonitis 1 case, duodenal stasis I case, duodenal ulcer 2 cases and essentially normal 5 cases. Complications related to the procedure never occurred. Conclusions The main causes of small intestinal bleeding are benign ulcers and tumor, as well as chronic inflammation. Parasitosis is the fourth cause. Diverticulosis and vascular deformity are the rare cause. But Michael diverticulosis is an important cause for the children with small intestinal bleeding., Double-balloon video enleroscopy is the most valuable method in diagnosing small intestinal diseases.
