Objective To investigate the effect of continuous nursing on the psychological status and quality of life in patients with low rectal cancer after Miles operation.Methods A total of 84 patients with low rectal carcinoma underwent Miles operation were selected from August 2014 to August 2016 in Henan Rongjun Hospital.The patients were divided into observation group (n =38) and control group (n =46) according to nursing measures.The patients in the control group were given routine nursing measures,while the patients in the observation group were given continuous nursing measures on the basis of routine nursing care.The psychological status and quality of life of the patients were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.Results There was no significant difference in swlf-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale(SDS) scores between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05).After six months intervention,the SAS and SDS scores in the two groups were significantly lower than those before intervention,and the scores of SAS and SDS in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the quality of life between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05).After six months intervention,the quality of life of patients in the two groups were significantly higher than those before intervention,and the quality of life of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Continuous nursing can significantly improve the negative emotions of anxiety and depression,and improve the quality of life in patients with low rectal cancer after Miles operation.

Objective To study the function of LSD1 in the development of neurons and the influence of LSD1 on mood and memory-related behavior in mice. Methods The LSD1(flox / flox) transgenic mice were crossed with Nestin?cre(Tg) transgenic mice, using Cre?LoxP recombination system, to generate LSD1 conditional knockout of neural stem cell ( LSD1?CKO) mice, LSD1(flox/ flox) Nestin?cre(Tg) mice, and LSD1(flox/ flox) mice as control. The neuron proliferation in LSD1?CKO mice was further detected by immunofluorescence staining. At the same time, the mood and memory?related behavior of LSD1?CKO mice were examined using several methods:sucrose preference test ( SPT) , forced swimming test ( FST) and novel?object recognition ( NOR) assay. Results In the LSD1 brain?specific CKO mice, the neuron proliferation rate in the hippocampus was significantly reduced ( P=0. 023 ) , the preference for sucrose was reduced ( P =0. 0075 ) , immobility duration during the forced swimming test was increased (P<0. 05), and LSD1?CKO mice also exhibits memory?decline (P=0. 0019) during the novel?object recognition test. Conclusions Depletion of LSD1 in mouse brain neural stem cells leads to significant reduction of the neuron proliferation in the hippocampus. LSD1?CKO mice show more negative emotions and memory impairment.

Objective To summarize the clinical nursing experience for patients with malignant obstructive jaundice after receiving percutaneous biliary radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and stent implantation. Methods The postoperative nursing experience in 9 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice who received percutaneous biliary RFA together with stent implantation were retrospectively analyzed. The postoperative complications and the nursing intervention measures were analyzed and evaluated. Results Biliary RFA and subsequent stent implantation were successfully carried out in all 9 patients. After the procedure, biliary fistula occurred in one patient, biliary hemorrhage in 2 patients and biliary infection in 2 patients. The patient, who developed biliary fistula, died one week later, and the clinical conditions in the remaining 4 patients were improved after symptomatic treatment. During the follow-up period of one month, the patients were in good condition. Conclusion The main purpose of postoperative nursing for patients after receiving percutaneous biliary RFA is to prevent the occurrence of bile duct perforation, hemorrhage, infection, etc. It is very important to keep the patients under close observation and comprehensive nursing so as to make an early detection and timely treatment of such complications, thus to reduce the incidence of complications causing serious consequences as well as to promote an early recovery.

BACKGROUND: It has been widely reported that the most types of cancer are probably originated from cancer stem cells (CSCs) which are subpopulations of tumor cells. Recent studies also suggested that lung cancer could arise from CSCs. However, the phenotypic characteristics of CSCs in lung cancer have not been precisely described.OBJECTIVE: To systematically analyze the expression of the most common CSC markers in cell line A549.METHODS: A549 cells were cultured for 1 week under the condition of conventional high glucose. After that, flow cytometry was used to assess the expression of putative stem cell markers, including CD133, CD24, CD44 and ABCG2.Cells were then sorted according to the expression of CD44 and CD24 markers by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and characterized using their sphere-forming capacity in serum free medium supplemented with several growth factors.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A549 cells expressed the CSC markers CD44 and CD24 at 64.23% and 58.62%,whereas the expression of both ABCG2 and CD133 was around 0.9%. Double-positive CD44/133 populations were rare.CD44+/CD24+ and CD44+/CD24- subpopulations respectively exhibited 54.64% and 23.38% expression. CD44+/CD24+ and CD44+/CD24- subsets were sorted by FACS. Both isolated subpopulations formed spheres in the serum free medium supplemented with basic fibroblast growth factor and epidermal growth factor. However, there was no significant difference in the sphere formation efficiency among CD44+/CD24+ and CD44+/CD24- subsets as well as A549 cells. Our findings suggest that CD44 and CD24 cannot be considered as potential markers for isolating lung CSCs in cell line A549, and further investigation using in vivo assays is required.

Scutellarin is the main effective constituent of breviscapine, a flavonoid mixture isolated from the dried whole plant of Erigeron breviscapus (Vant.) Hand-Mazz, and valsartan is used as an antihypertensive drug. These two drugs have already been clinically used together to treat diabetic nephropathy (DN) in China, and the combined medications showed some enhanced protection against DN. The aim of this study is to investigate the potential pharmacokinetic interaction between scutellarin and valsartan in rats. Breviscapine injection (20 mg x kg(-1), i.v.) and valsartan (15 mg x kg-, i.g.), either alone or together were given to 18 male Sprague-Dawley rats. Concentrations of scutellarin and valsartan were quantified by HPLC, and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by non-compartmental methods. We found that the pharmacokinetic parameters of scutellarin altered significantly after co-administration of oral valsartan. The plasma clearance (CL(p)) and the bile clearance (CL(b)) of scutellarin were reduced significantly in the presence of valsartan. After oral administration of valsartan with or without intravenous scutellarin, however, the pharmacokinetic parameters of valsartan were comparable. In conclusion, our data suggests that the concurrent use of valsartan reduces the biliary excretion of scutellarin, and this may be due to the inhibitory effect of valsartan on the biliary excretion of scutellarin mediated by Mrp2 (Multidrug resistance-associated protein 2).
