Objective To explore the best cut-off value of serum human epididymis protein 4(HE4)in the diagnosis of ovarian cancer,and analyze the clinical significance of combined detection of HE4,carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125)and D-dimer for early screening and diagnosis of ovarian cancer.Methods A total of 49 patients with ovarian cancer,63 patients with benign tumor and 47 healthy women were collected.The content of CA125,HE4 and D-dimer were detected by chemical luminescence immunoassay and turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay,respectively.Results The new cut-off value of HE4 was 54.31 pmol/L.The serum levels of HE4,CA125 and D-dimer in the ovarian cancer group were all significant higher than those in the ovarian benign tumor group and the healthy group(P<0.05).No significant difference between the healthy group and benign disease group was found in CA125 and D-dimer content(P=0.293,0.359),while a significant difference in HE4 level(P<0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of combined detection of the HE4+CA125 increased to 91.8%,85.4%,which was higher than that of the diagnosis detection of the three indicators respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of combined detection of the HE4 +CA125 +D-dimer were 95.0%,76.5%,which was higher than the combined detection of the HE4+CA125.Conclusion The combined detection of CA125+HE4+D-dimer could improve the sensitivity for early diagnosis and screening of ovarian cancer.

The rise of advanced nursing practice in the developed countries promotes the development of nursing science, nursing postgraduate education arises at the historic moment. Professional nursing postgraduate education started late in our country and its development is not mature, there exists some problems in the training plan and professional positioning, such as training process not realizing the training objectives, unreasonable curriculum setting and evaluation system, unclear professional direction, disconnection of vocational orientation and the professional qualification and specialist nurse certification. Therefore, nursing professional degree graduate education mode needs further exploration and unity.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and prospect of innovative interactive follow-up mode for rehabilitation ofpostopera-tive breast cancer patietns in new medical environment. Methods The novel patient-centered medical care was promoted,and Pink Ribbon Clubs was established in different regions. Meanwhile,the patients’ self-support groups were formed, and a specialist for out-patients follow-up of outpatients by telephone or on the internet was arranged to provide psychological assessment,with timely and effective response. All data concerning to the follow-up were recorded and the patients were required to complete the relevant questionnaires. Results Compared with the same period in 2013,the follow-up rate was significantly increased to 80. 25%,and the patients showed higher satisfaction. The incidence of lymphedema in the patients was significantly reduced from 13% in 2013 to 7%. The quality of life was significantly improved and self-rat-ing score on depression was decreased from (51. 90 ± 8. 55) to (35. 81 ± 6. 21). Conclusion The kind of“Trinity” interactive mode is an effective follow-up mode with the clinical benefit in patients’ rehabilitation of physical and mental health,which is worthy of further applica-tion.

Objective To comparatively analyze Toxoplasma gondii separated from HIV-positive people and RH strain GRA6 gene. Methods By using the nested PCR the amplification of Dali HIV-positive blood samples and RH strains of Toxo-plasma GRA6 genome was performed. The GRA6 gene amplification positive product was selected and the electrophoresis imag-ing was performed by being digested with the Mse I endonuclease and the gene sequences were measured and analyzed. Re-sults The GRA6 gene fragment 800 bp was successfully amplified and about 600 bp and 200 bp bands were got by Mse I. The sequencing results showed that T. gondii GRA6 gene positive samples had 2 nucleotide variation compared with T. gondii strain RH namely 447 base pair at C becoming G and 623 base pair at G becoming T. At 146 bp and 690 bp the Mse I restric-tion sites TTAA were found. Conclusion The preliminary judgment shows that the Dali HIV-positive T. gondii genotype is consistent with RH strain belonging to genotype I.

Objective To preliminarily understand the genotype characteristics of Toxoplasma gondii in blood of HIV?posi?tive persons in Lincang City,Yunnan Province. Method Two segments of SAG2 gene of T. gondii from blood samples of HIV?positive persons in Lincang City were extracted and amplified by using the nested PCR method and the genotype was identified and compared with the standard strain(Type I)of Toxoplasma gondii. Results Thirty?five SAG2 genes(241 bp)and 35 SAG2 genes(221 bp)of T. gondii were amplified from 170 blood samples of the HIV?positive people,and 4 of each case were selected and digested with enzyme,then 2 aim gene fragments of each case were chosen and compared with the standard strain (Type I)of T. gondii. The digestion of SAG2 gene(241 bp)showed the genotype of the blood samples was Type I or Type II, and the digestion of SAG2 gene(221 bp)confirmed that the genotype was Type I. Conclusion It is preliminarily confirmed that the genotype of T. gondii in blood of HIV?positive persons in Lincang City,Yunnan Province is Type I.

Objective To find biological markers to predict the mathematical cognitive ability in order to set patients free from the pain and time-consuming behavioral tests. Methods 86 patients with stroke or brain traumatic injuries were recruited and acquired T1 and rest-ing-state functional MRI imaging data. And a mathematical task (7 calculation items, 2 counting items) and a word-reading task (140 items) was also finished. The partial correlative analysis was made between the score of mathematical task and the amplitude of low frequency fluc-tuation of each voxel of the whole brain with the word-reading performance as controlling task, and AlphaSim correction method was used with corrected P<0.05 (single voxel level:P<0.05;cluster size:>110 voxels). Results There were 5 cerebral regions whose amplitude of low frequency fluctuation significantly correlated with mathematical performance:left inferior parietal lobule (161 voxels, rpeak=0.34), left precu-neus/superior parietal lobule (141 voxels, rpeak=0.31), left middle temporal gyrus (359 voxels, rpeak=0.34), left middle frontal gyrus (491 vox-els, rpeak=0.36), and right middle frontal gyrus (156 voxels, rpeak=0.32). Conclusion The amplitude of low frequency fluctuation of left inferior parietal lobule, precuneus/superior parietal lobule, middle temporal gyrus, middle frontal gyrus, and right middle frontal gyrus could be used as predictors of mathematical cognitive ability for brain-damaged patients.

Objective To explore the effect of SFI in radiation-induced mice brain injury after 20 Gy cranial radiation.Methods The mice were divided into three groups:(1) control group,(2) RT-only group:the whole brain was irradiated with a dose of 20 Gy,(3) RT and SFI group:SFI at 20 ml/kg/d from 4 weeks after 20 Gy cranial radiation theraty(CRT).Results Morris water maze test showed that the latency of the irradiated group was longer than control group and SFI improved the cognitive function of mice (t =6.34,6.70,P <0.05).The expression of TNF-α reached to the highest level at 3 h after irradiation,and then it decreased but got the second higher level again at 4 weeks after irradiation.The expression of IL-1 β reached to the highest level at 72 h after irradiation and decreased until 4 weeks after irradiation.SFI decreased both expressions of TNF-α (t =11.34,9.70,6.07,P < 0.05) and IL-1 β (t =12.27,5.70,7.52,P < 0.05).Immune florescence staining showed that SFI reduced the number of activated microglia (t =12.35,8.64,7.82,P < 0.05)and inhibited the translocation of p65 of microglia after irradiation.Conclusions Findings suggest that SFI may decrease microglial activation and suppress the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β by inhibiting the translocation of NF-κB p65 and then attenuate irradiation-induced brain injury.
