AIM To study the antitumor activity of astragalosides(AST) and its mechanism of action. METHODS By using two experimental models of hepatoma(HepA) and Sarcoma 180 in mice, the rate of inhibition of tumor weight AST on the growth of HepA and S180 tumor cells were tested. The growth inhibition of AST on Hela cells was detected by MTT assay. The effect of AST on cell cycle and apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry and TUNEL. RESULTS AST inhibited the growth of tumor cells of HepA and S180 in mice. AST inhibited the growth of Hela cell in concentration dependent manner with IC 50 of 80 4 mg?L -1 . Flow cytomety analgsis showed that G 0/G 1 phase rate was increased but S phase rate was decreased. The apoptosis rate of Hela cells treated with AST( 80 and 160 mg?L -1 ) was significantly higher than that of control. CONCLUSION AST can inhibit the growth of tumor cells of HepA and S180 in mice and the growth of HeLa cells in vitro . Causing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis is probably one of the mechanisms of antitumor effect by AST.

Objective To assess the prevalance and distribution of pain in Parkinson' s disease (PD) patients, and to describe the relationship between pain and development of disease and its impact on the quality of life. Methods 113 PD patients were assessed with Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), Unified Parkinson' s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hoehn-Yahr Scale (H-Y), Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale (HRSD, HAMA) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Patients were divided into no pain group, PD-pain group and non-PD-pain group. PD-pain group was divided into PD-pain direct group and PD-pain indirect group. And statistical analysis was performed for each group. Results The incidence of PD-pain was 42. 5% (48/113). And compared with no pain group, PD-pain group had earlier age at onset of disease, longer duration, higher HAMA, HRSD, UPDRS and H-Y score, higher daily L-dopa dose, with statistical significance. Compared with non-PD pain group, the differences in the onset of age (57.4±9.6 vs 65.9±8.7, t= -2.596, P =0.012), HRSD(12. 9±7.9 vs 8.7±3.7, t =2.605, P=0.014) and VAS (61.6±25.9 vs 38.0 ± 30. 1, U = -2.290, P =0.022) were also statistically significant. BPI was different between PD-pain direct group and PD-pain indirect group except normal work and relations with other people. Conclusion Pain is frequent in Parkinsonian population. Most pain was chronic and related to PD (PD-pain). These patients always have earlier onset age and poorer quality of life.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the professional cognitive level and its influencing factors of fresh nursing students in Yunnan,in order to provide a basis for nursing education workers, improve the situation and put forward a series of interventions.MethodsA questionnaire survey was done among 623 fresh nursing students in 5 universities of Yunnan province,and the data were collected and analyzed using the descriptive analysis and chi-square test of software SPSS22.0.Results There were 313 peoples choose nursing for easy future employment in qualified 599 questionnaires. The professional cognitive level in Yunnan was not comprehensive compared with other provinces,and the ratio of the nursing mission and etc were lower than other provinces with statistical significance(P < 0.05). However,there were 50 people(40.98%)would like to choose other major of 122 people who come from other provinces,which was higher than that of Yunnan (34.98%). There were 324 students(63.11%)were proud of nursing,327 students(63.70%)think nursing have a good development prospect who received the freshmen entrance education,which were higher than 35.62% and 42.47% of who could not receive the freshmen entrance education,with a statistical significance(P < 0.05). ConclusionSchool should reinforce the new students entrance education and professional publicity to cultivate the professional emotion of nursing freshmen.

Objective To explore exenatide in the treatment of metformin(MET)alone,sulfonylurea (SU)alone or MET + SU combination therapy with poor glycemic control in type 2 diabetic pa-tients and to find effective nursing measures.Methods 24 patients were randomly divided into the con-trol group and the exenatide group with 12 patients in each group.In the exenatide group,exenatide 5μg twice a day for 4weeks,then 10μg twice a day for 12 weeks.Changes of HbAlc,body weight,BMI,FBG,P2hBG,and rate of adverse reaction were compared between two groups.Results Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc),body weight,BMI,FBG,P2hBG in the control group before and after treatment showed no significant difference,while the exenatide group showed better results compared with those before treatment and the control group.Nursing intervention played evident effect on reducing adverse effect such as nausea,vomiting,diarrhea,low blood sugar,headache.Conclusions For patients with type 2 diabetes,using MET,SU alone or MET + SU combination therapy showed poor results of blood sugar control,addition of exenatide therapy can effectively control blood sugar,nursing intervention can significantly alleviate the adverse effects of patients.

Objective To study the incidence of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) and its impact on the clinical manifestations of patients with Parkinson' s disease (PD). Methods One hundred and twenty-four PD patients were included into this study and each of them was given the non motor symptoms questionnaire (NMSquest) to investigate the incidence of RBD. The PD patients were then divided into the RBD group and non RBD group, according to their answers to the NMSquest. Then the clinical differences were investigated between PD patients with and without RBD on the aspects of demographic characters, Hoehn-Yahr (H-Y) stage, the scores of Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) sub-items, the incidence of non motor symptoms, and the dysfunctions of non motor systems (cognitive impairment, anxiety, depression and sleep disorders ). The evaluation tools of non motor functions include Mini Mental State Exam ( MMSE), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Parkins' s Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Results ( 1 ) 62.9% (78/124) of the PD patients have been experiencing RBD. (2) The course of the disease in RBD group ( 3.8 ± 2.8 ) was significantly shorter than non RBD group (5.0 ± 2.5, t = - 1. 972, P = 0. 048 ) while the sex, age, onset age and the mode of onset, Levodopa dose equivalents (LDE) and the kinds of medicines showed no difference between the two groups. (3) H-Y stage, the scores of UPDRS sub-items and the incidence of motor complications showed no difference between RBD and non RBD group. (4) Most of the non motor symptoms, including the gastrointestinal dysfunctions, autonomic dysfunctions, mood disorders and sleep disturbances, occurred much frequently in RBD group, however, the scores of MMSE, HAMD, HAMA,PDSS and ESS showed no difference between the RBD and non RBD group. Conclusion RBD commonly occurred in PD patients, and PD patients with RBD have a tendency to suffer from dysfunction of non motor systems.

Objective To summarize the perioperative nursing of huge malignant lobulated breast tumor, so as to promote the recovery of patients. Methods A total of 11 patients with huge malignant lobulated breast tumor patients were selected, assessed the preoperative status,finished breast tumor site nursing, strengthen psychological nutritional assessment, the adjustment of the respiratory system for the operation, prevent falls. In addition to do a good job in general nursing and postoperative pain management, but should also focus on the observation of the chest wall flap, drainage tube care, to prevent bleeding and infection, etc. Results By implementing the nursing plan, 1 case of breathing difficulties preoperative patients with respiratory function improved, 1 case of refuse treatment of patients accepted surgical treatment after psychological intervention, 2 cases of postoperative patients with skin flap necrosis, local treatment, after compression bandage, 1 case of good recovery, 1 case of poor treatment effect for the wound recovered well after back surgery graft;1 case of patients with subcutaneous effusion, to adjust the drainage tube, suction fluid, after compression bandage, partial treatment, recovering well. Patients were good recovery, discharged smoothly. Conclusions By constantly sum up experience, through positive assessment of patients after preoperative mental and physical health and attaches importance to patients' skin flap, bleeding, pain, completes the drainage tube nursing and prevention of infection, can effectively promote the recovery of patients.

Objective To survey the prevalence and distribution of dyskinesia and motor fluctuations, and to investigate the factors related to the dyskinesia and motor fluctuations. Methods The detailed information were recorded, patients were rated by Unified Parkinson's disease rating scald (UPDRS) and Hoehn-Yahn stage. The occurrence of dyskinesia and motor fluctuations were recorded according to UPDRS Ⅳ. Results One hundred and twenty-two patients receiving levodopa treatment for at lease 6 months were involved. Fifteen (12.3%) were experiencing dyskinesia and 41(33.6%) motor fluctuations. The age of onset(OR=0.907,P<0.01) and daily levodopa dose (95% CI 1.000-1.004, OR=1.002, P<0.05) were independent factors with dyskinesia; while the age of onset (OR=0.922, P<0.05), levodopa treatment duration (OR=1.234, P<0.05), daily levodopa dose (95% CI 1.002-1.008, OR=1.005, P<0.01) and Hoehn-Yahn stage (OR=1.869, P<0.05) were independent factors of motor fluctuations. Conclusions The rate of motor complications was lower than the results surveyed in European countries. The likelihood of occurrence of dyskinesia and motor fluctuations is increased in those on high daily levedopa dose. The concomitant use of other medication to reduce levedopa dose might delay the motor complications.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of electrocoagulation syndrome after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in patients with colorectal lesions.Methods Clinical data of 145 patients with colorectal mucosal lesions undergoing ESD in People's Hospital of Wuhan University between September 2010 and September 2015 were retrospectively studied.Results Among 45 patients,post endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PEECS) was developed in 32 cases (22％).The median age in PEECS group was higher (t =-5.783,P =0.000),the median lesion size was larger(t =-5.590,P =0.000),the median length of hospital stay was longer (t =-6.841,P =0.000) than those in non-PEECS group.Univariate regression analysis showed PEECS was associated with the age,lesion size,lesion location,length of hospital stay,malignant tumor,polyps type,resection modality.Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors for the development of electrocoagulation syndrome were age ＞65 year (OR =1.123,95％ CI:1.013-1.244,P =0.027),lesion size ＞ 3.5 cm (OR =1.173,95％ CI:1.015-1.357,P =0.031),malignant tumor (OR =3.498,95 ％ CI:1.460-8.379,P =0.005),hospital stay ＞ 10 d (OR =2.480,95％ CI:1.346-4.569,P =0.004),non-rectal lesions (OR =12.612,95％ CI:3.446-46.157,P =0.000).Conclusion Attention should be paid for colorectal lesion patients with high risk of PEECS,when endoscopic submucosal dissection is performed.

Objective To determine the prevalence of rapid eye movement(REM)sleep behavior disorder(RBD)in patients with Parkinson' s disease(PD)and to investigate the risk factors of PD-RBD and its effect on the progress of PD. Methods Using the minimal diagnostic criteria of parasomnias described in the International Classification of Sleep Disorders-Revised(ICSD-R)to diagnose clinically probable RBD(cpRBD), patients were assessed by Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale(UPDRS),MMSE, Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)at baseline and followed for 2.5 years. Results The frequency of cpRBD ranged from 35.6%(47/132)to 41.7%(55/132)during the study period. 11.4% (15/132)patients dropped out from the study. Lower MoCA score and type of onset are independent factors with cpRBD; Lower MoCA score(OR =0. 817 ,P =0. 004)is the risk factor while tremor(OR =0. 247 ,P =0. 020)is the protective factor. PD in patients with PD-RBD may progress more rapidly than non PD-RBD patients(UPDRS Ⅲ change from baseline 9. 86 ± 4. 96 vs 6. 76 ± 4. 26, t = 2. 909, P = 0. 005; H-Y change from baseline 0. 77 ± 0. 54 vs 0. 33 ± 0. 49, t = 3. 664, P = 0. 000). Conclusion RBD may be a symptom predictive for rapid PD progression, declining cognition and psychosis.
