Objective:To explore the application effect of ADOPT mode in breast cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) catheterization.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 248 breast cancer patients with PICC catheterization who were admitted to Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from June 2018 to June 2020 were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into the observation group ( n=124) and the control group ( n=124) using the random number table method. The patients in the control group were given routine nursing care, while the patients in the observation group were given the ADOPT model on the basis of the nursing care in the control group. The incidence of PICC complications was compared between the two groups. The scores of Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA) , Cancer Fatigue Scale (CFS) and Quality of Life Questionnaire Breast Cancer Module 23 (QLQ-BR 23) were compared between the two groups before and after 3 months of intervention. Results:The number of unplanned extubation cases in the observation group was lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05) . After 3 months of intervention, scores of ESCA and QLQ-BR 23 function scale of the observation group were higher than those of the control group. And the scores of each dimension of the CFS, the QLQ-BR 23 symptom scale and score of the each item were lower than those of the control group, all the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The ADOPT model has a good effect on reducing the incidence of unplanned extubation in breast cancer patients with PICC catheterization, which can effectively improve the self-care ability and quality of life of patients and relieve cancer fatigue in patients.

Background and objective Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a rapidly growing tumor with character-istic of neuroendocrine cellular function. Neuron speciifc enolase (NSE), pro-gastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) are valuable in diagnosis and treatment of SCLC. By analyzing the variation of NSE, ProGRP and LDH before and atfer treatment, the aim of this study is to investigate the effcacy of tumor markers in diagnostic staging, therapeu-tic evaluation and prediction of disease relapsing.Methods Patients with SCLC who receiving the ifrst line chemotherapy in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were enrolled and retrospectively analyzed. Clinical characteristic (includes NSE, ProGRP and LDH level before and atfer 2 cycles chemotherapy), effcacy evaluation, progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed.Results Before treatment, Serum NSE, ProGRP and LDH in patients with extensive disease (ED) were signiifcantly higher than those with limited disease (LD)(allP<0.005); NSE level increased obviously accompanied by increase of lymph nodes stage in LD group (P=0.010); Patients with weight reduction when diagnosis had higher NSE and LDH than those without loss of weight (P=0.032,P=0.014). Atfer 2 cycles chemotherapy, decrease of NSE and ProGRP in effective group was higher than which in stable and ineffective groups (P=0.015,P=0.002). hTe relapse risk was lower in patients who accepted>4 cycles chemotherapy and with obvious decrease of ProGRP than those who accepted ≤4 cycles chemotherapy and with less obvious decrease of ProGRP in LD group; ED patients with no more than 2 distant metastasis, normal LDH level before treat-ment and obvious decrease of ProGRP atfer chemotherapy had lower short term relapse risk. In addition, the types of relapse (sensitive relapse, drug resistance relapse and refractory relapse) were negatively correlated with decrease of ProGRP (P=0.044). By multivariate analysis, numbers of chemotherapy cycle was independent prognostic factor for PFS in LD SCLC; numbers of distant metastasis and decrease of ProGRP were independent prognostic factors for PFS in ED SCLC.Conclusion Increase level of serum tumor markers is related to tumor burden. Decrease level of ProGRP atfer treatment may prognose effcacy and relapse risk.

OBJECTIVETo identified the resistance of Coix to Ustilago coicis and screen the high disease-resistance Coix germplasm.

METHODField and laboratory biochemical methods were used for the resistance identification. Ninteen germplasms collected from 7 provinces in southern of China such as Yunnan, Zhejiang, Fujian etc. were inoculated with chlamydospore of U. coicis, respectively. The incidence of a disease in field was investigated and the level of resistance was evaluated. The PAL activity dynamic changes in different level resistant germplasms were further determined.

RESULTThe result of field test showed 1 germplasm was immune, 1 germplasm was high resistance which incidence rate was under 20%, 6 germplasms were moderate resistance with the average incidence rates ranged within 20% - 40%, 11 of 19 germplasms that average incidence rates above 40% were identified as sensitive resistance. The value of PLA activity peak of resistant germplasm in seedling was significant higher and appeared earlier than that of the sensitive ones after inoculating.

CONCLUSIONMost collected C. lacryma-jobi germplasms are sensitive to smut in our investigation; the PAL activity may play important role in Coix germplasm for resistance to smut and the biochemical method may be as an aiding method to resistance identification of Coix germplasm.

Objective To investigate the change of thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) level in patients with TgAb-positive papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC),and explore the relationship between the variation of TgAb level and prognosis.Methods A total of 817 PTC postoperative patients (254 males,563 females,median age 45 years) who underwent radioactive iodine therapy (RAI) from February 2008 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 130 patients with TgAb (+),and 687 patients with TgAb (-).The dynamic changes of TgAb in 3 years after RAI were observed,and the threshold value of TgAb reduction rate in predicting recurrence/metastasis was plotted.Mann-Whitney u test,x2 test and receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis were used to analyze the data.Results There were statistically significant differences in gender,concurrent with Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT),risk stratification and recurrence/metastasis between TgAb (+) and TgAb (-) groups (x2 values:13.988-191.059,z =2.053,all P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in tumor size,extrathyroidal extension,risk stratification,TgAb before RAI and concurrent with HT between TgAb (+) patients with and without recurrence/metastasis (x2 values:3.865-6.278;z values:4.624,3.641,all P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in tumor size,extrathyroidal extension,risk stratification and TNM staging between TgAb (-) patients with and without recurrence/metastasis (x2 values:13.459,8.215,z values:5.385,3.998;all P＜0.05).For patients with TgAb (+),the optimum cut-off threshold of TgAb reduction rate in predicting recurrence/metastasis by ROC curve analysis at 1,2 and 3 years after RAI was 54.0％,38.0％ and 59.0％,respectively,and the corresponding area under the curve (AUC) was 0.847,0.815 and 0.822,respectively.Conclusions The trend of the TgAb after RAI is related to the prognosis of patients.Patients with TgAb decreased ≥54.0％,≥38.0％,≥59.0％ after 1,2,3 years post-RAI may have better prognosis.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of balloon dilation percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) combined with prying reduction bone grafting in the treatment of thoracolumbar fractures, and its impact on patients′neurological function.Methods:The clinical data of 184 patients with thoracolumbar fractures from March 2017 to May 2020 in Cangzhou Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital of Hebei Province were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 86 patients were treated with balloon dilation PKP combined with prying reduction and bone grafting (combined group), and 98 patients were treated with open reduction decompression and internal fixation (internal fixation group). The intraoperative bleeding volume, surgical time, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, efficacy and complications were recorded. One year after surgery, X-ray films were taken to measure the height of the anterior border and posterior border of vertebral body and the Cobb angle, and the pain visual analogue score (VAS), Barthel index and neurological Frankel grade were evaluated.Results:The intraoperative bleeding volume and surgical time in combined group were significantly higher than those in internal fixation group: (205.64 ± 45.63) ml vs. (180.37 ± 30.08) ml and (110.22 ± 28.91) min vs. (81.66 ± 20.77) min, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there was no statistical difference in intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency between the two groups ( P>0.05). The total effective rate in combined group was significantly higher than that in internal fixation group: 91.86% (79/86) vs. 79.59% (78/98), the total incidence of complications was significantly lower than that in internal fixation group: 13.95% (12/86) vs. 38.78% (38/98), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). The height of the anterior border and posterior border of vertebral body 1 year after surgery in combined group were significantly higher than those in internal fixation group: (95.78 ± 1.59) mm vs. (62.74 ± 1.80) mm and (98.53 ± 3.80) mm vs. (95.06 ± 3.28) mm, the Cobb angle was significantly smaller than that in internal fixation group: (6.53 ± 2.80)° vs. (18.06 ± 2.68)°, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The VAS and Barthel index 1 year after surgery in both groups improved significantly, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01), but there were no statistical differences between the two groups ( P>0.05). The rate of neurological Frankel grade E 1 year after surgery in combined group was significantly higher than that in internal fixation group: 56.98% (49/86) vs. 23.47% (23/98), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Compared with open reduction decompression and internal fixation, the balloon dilation PKP combined with prying reduction and bone grafting patients with thoracolumbar fractures is better for vertebral reduction and deformity repair, with higher safety, more significant pain relief, and better recovery of daily life and neurological function.
