2.Role of surgery in multidisciplinary treatments of breast cancer
Cancer Research and Clinic 2010;22(3):145-147,151
Though the development of non-surgical treatments has improved the local and systemic control of breast cancer, surgery still plays an important role. For early breast cancer, breast-conserving surgery (via periareolar incision and/or axillary incision for some suitable cases), skin-sparing mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction and modified radical mastectomy can be chosen individually. For locally advanced breast cancer, neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery is recommended. Surgery can improve local control and life quality for recurrent and metastatic breast cancer; furthermore, recent evidence also shows some survival benefits. At present, the treatment strategy of breast cancer is surgery-based multidisciplinary approach, and surgery is still the mainstay of treatment no matter in survival and life-quality improving.
4.Relationship between alexithymia and patients' satisfaction in anterior esthetic restorations
Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2011;20(5):431-433
Objective To analyze the relationship between alexithymia and patients' satisfaction under the condition of good quality in the esthetic characters. Methods 211 patients requiring single anterior tooth restoration were treated with all ceramic crowns which were assessed by the good and moderate degrees. Patients received 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) and a visual analogue scale assessing patients' satisfaction (VAS). Chi-squared analysis, correlation analysis and the general linear modeling procedure were calculated for TAS total and factors scores according to age, gender and dichotomized satisfaction. Results 85. 3% patients belonged to the high satisfaction group(VAS scores 80 or higher) and 7.1% reported alexithymia ( total score 61 or higher). No difference across gender was observed in the prevalence of alexithymia and satisfaction. Age was correlated with the TAS scores ( r=0.629) and satisfaction scores ( r= -0.429). According to dichotomized satisfaction,TAS total and factor 1&2 scores were significantly different. When adjusting for the effect of age,the association was existed between TAS scores and san'sfaction( r= -0.68). Conclusion Alexithymia has effect on dental satisfaction.
5.Combined application of vascularized pedicled pectoralis major clavicular periosteal flap and locking plate fixation plus bone morphogenetic protein implantation in the treatment of clavicular defect and nonunion after operation
Chinese Journal of Trauma 2009;25(9):826-828
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of clavicular defect and nonunion after operation and evaluate the clinical effects of vascularized pedicled pectoralis major clavicular periosteal flap and locking plate fixation plus bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) implantation. Methods From January 2004 to April 2008, 12 patients (mean age, 42.8 years old) with clavicular defect and nonunion were treated in Zhongshan Hospital. The internal fixators were removed, and then fibrous scars and sclerotic bones were cleared. The clavicular detects were fixed with locking plate, with implantation of the BMP. The wound was covered with vascularized pedicled pectoralis major clavicular periosteal flap. Postoperative functional rehabilitation exercises were performed. Results All patients were followed up for 8-24 months (mean 1.2 years). The clinical results were evaluated by Constant-Murley scoring system. The clavicular defects were healed in all patients within 4-7 months, and the internal fixators were successfully removed from some of the patients. Conclusions Vascularized pedicled pectoralis major clavicular periosteal flap combined with locking plate fixation plus BMP implantation is effective in the treatment of clavicular defect and nonunion.
7.Research progress of microRNA in IgA nephropathy
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2014;29(22):1754-1756
IgA nephropathy is a complex disease with unclear mechanism,microRNAs may involve in the disease,and some of them may be associated with the key enzyme of IgA nephropathy-core β1 3-galactosyl-transferase.The concept of epigenetics and the structures and functions of microRNA were introduced.Through reviewing the related researches,several microRNAs expressing abnormally in IgA nephropathy was found.
8.Relevance of job embeddedness of clinical specialist nurses and intent to stay
Modern Clinical Nursing 2017;16(7):5-9
Objective To investigate the status quo of job enbeddedness and intent to stay among the clinical specialist nurses and to explore the correlation between them. Method A total of 200 clinical specialist nurses participated in the investigation by means of general nurses' questionnaire, job embeddedness scale and intent to stay scale. Results The score of job embeddedness was (3.40 ± 0.46), the dimension of community association scored highest (3.68 ±0.67), the dimension of organization sacrifice the lowest (3.12±0.53) and the intent stay (3.69 ± 0.80). There was a positive correlation between job placement and intent to stay as well as its dimensions of community matching, organization sacrifice (P <0.05 or P <0.01). Community matching served as a major factor in predicting the intent of a specialist nurse. Conclusion Nursing managers should pay attention to the needs of specialist nurses and take relevant measures to improve the job embeddednee level of specialist nurses and thus improve their intent to stay as well.
9.Study on the Direct Powder Compression Technique of Angelica Micropowder
China Pharmacy 1991;0(03):-
OBJECTIVE:To study the direct powder compression technology of Angelica micropowder. METHODS: The formula of Angelica micropowder was optimized by mixture uniform design with tablet weight variation and friability as restrictive conditions, and a regression equation was established based on the comprehensive grading on the hardness and disintegration to figure out the optimal solution. DPS software was applied in the calculation. RESULTS: Prepared by the direct powder compression technology, the optimal formula of Angelica micropowder was obtained as follows: the hardness of the optimized tablet could reach as high as 75 N and the disintegrating time was about 10.24 min, with smooth and intact surface. CONCLUSION:The technology is reasonable in formulation and satisfactory in molding, and it can serve as theoretical basis for the production of Angelica tablets.
10.On the compensation mechanism for urban medical services
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2009;25(5):297-301
Reform on medial service compensation mechanism,as a key point in the heahhcare system reform,runs through the entire reform process.It plays a key role for the establishment and improvement of urban medical care system,medical service system,medical management system and operating system,for its guidance and regulation effects.Such a refonn to build a scientific and perfect compensation model and mechanism will be highly significant for the smooth progress of the new round of healthcare reform and its success in the end.
