Objective To adopt Orem self-care model to assestt the dependency care ability of care-givers for surgery orphans and analyze its defective level of dependency case,then propose corresponding nursing policy. Methods 16 caregivers for surgery orphans were surveyed with self-made questionnaire which included the general condition of the caregivers,the nursing situation for orphans and the require-ment for dependency care ability of the caregivers.Results All questionnaires were withdrew.The pro-portion of providing correct primary care for orphans was up to 62.50%～93.75%.But the proportion of pro-viding correct rehabilitation exercises was lower than 43.75%.96% caregivers wished to obtain the relative nursing knowledge by training and improve their dependency care ability.Conclmions The caregivers' dependency care ability can meet the needs of orphans' basic dependency care.But the defect still exists,the nurses should adopt different nursing compensation for different orphans and different care defects.

Objective To explore the application of CO2 as an insufflation agent in patients under-going colonoscopy by comparing carbon dioxide(CO2 )and air.Methods Consecutive 681 patients who un-derwent conventional colonoscopy from January to May in 2014 at endoscopy center of our hospital were in-cluded.The patients were randomly divided into the air group and CO2 group.The gas flow,capacity,oper-ation time,PaCO2 and abdominal pain during and 20 min,40 min,1 h,2 h,12 h,24 h after colonoscopy were recorded.The safety and advantages of CO2 in the colonoscopy were analyzed.Results The intubation time of CO2 group was significantly shorter than that of air group (P <0.05),but there was no significant difference in endoscopy withdrawal time between the two groups (P >0.05).There was also no difference in air flow and the total volume between the two groups (P >0.05).PaCO2 of two groups were within the nor-mal range.PaCO2 during examination was significantly higher than that before and 20 minutes after examina-tion (P <0.05),but the PaCO2 between the two groups showed no significant difference (P >0.05).The abdominal pain scores during and 20 min,40 min,1 h,2 h after the examination of air group were signifi-cantly higher than those of CO2 group (P <0.05),but they were not 12h and 24h after the examination (P>0.05).Conclusion CO2 is safe and could reduce abdominal discomfort after colonoscopy,which is suit-able for clinical application.

Objective To isolate and culture the spontaneous ascites cells from Microtus fortis under artificial conditions, so as to investigate the molecular mechanism at the cell level. Methods The cells were isolated from spontaneous ascites of M. fortis artificially bred for 90 d,and were cultured and observed under a microscope. The differences of ascites cells among nor?mal,spontaneous ascites and schistosomiasis infected samples of M. fortis were compared. The lesion of tissue was observed si?multaneously. Results There were no obvious organ tissue lesions in M. fortis with spontaneous ascites,and the number and types of cells in peritoneal fluid were irregular and significantly changed. With the extension of culture time ,the colonies ap?peared and there were a large number of vacuole?like cells in the cultured medium and sequentially presenting proliferation ,de?formation,disintegration and the fiber?like changes and could be passaged 3-4 d only. Conclusion The cells from M. fortis with spontaneous ascites are similar to its abdominal cavity cells after infection of Schistosoma japonica.

Objective:To investigate the effect of pidotimod in reducing pulmonary infection in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy.Methods:One hundred and twenty patients with lung cancer in the Fifth People′s Hospital of Dalian City from July 2017 to July 2018 were selected. The patients were divided into control group and pidotimod group by random digits table method with 60 cases each. The patients were treated with standard two drugs chemotherapy containing platinum drug according to the pathological type, and the patients in pidotimod group were combined with pidotimod. The number of pulmonary infections during chemotherapy, number of completed scheduled chemotherapy and adverse reaction were observed. The correlation between pulmonary infection and pidotimod was analyzed by multivariate orderly Logistic regression.Results:The incidence of pulmonary infection in pidotimod group was significantly lower than that in control group: 18.33% (11/60) vs. 40.00% (24/60), and there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 6.845, P<0.01). The rate of completed scheduled chemotherapy in pidotimod group was significantly higher than that in control group: 55.00% (33/60) vs. 36.67% (22/60), and there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 4.062, P<0.05). Multivariate orderly Logistic regression analysis result showed that pidotimod could reduce the risk of pulmonary infection ( OR = 0.210, 95% CI 0.072 to 0.606, P = 0.004), and help to complete the scheduled chemotherapy ( OR = 2.323, 95% CI 1.080 to 5.003, P = 0.031). In pidotimod group, no obvious adverse reaction related to pidotimod application was detected, and chemotherapy was not affected. Conclusions:Application of pidotimod can reduce the chance of pulmonary infection in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy and help patients complete scheduled chemotherapy.

Objective: To analyze the expression of c-MET and its prognostic correlation in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: The clinical data and pathological specimen of patients with lung adenocarcinoma in Dalian 5th People′s Hospital from January 2006 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. The expression difference of c-MET between lung adenocarcinoma tissue and normal adjacent tissues was compared. The correlation of c-MET with the pathology and clinical factors was also analyzed. Results: A total of 82 patients were retrospective analyzed, including 82 pathological specimens of lung adenocarcinoma and 45 specimens of normal adjacent tissues. Among 53 patients with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ lung adenocarcinoma, 31 cases had low expression of c-MET and 22 cases had high expression of c-MET. Among 29 patients with stage Ⅲ lung adenocarcinoma, 10 cases had low expression of c-MET and 19 cases had high expression of c-MET. There was a correlation between TNM stage and c-MET positive expression in lung adenocarcinoma (P=0.037). The positive expression rate of c-MET was not significantly correlated with age, sex and differentiation degree (P > 0.05). Among 82 cases of lung adenocarcinoma, 39 cases had low expression of c-MET and 43 cases had high expression of c-MET; 45 cases of para-carcinoma tissuehad low expression of c-MET. The positive expression rate of c-MET in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was significantly higher than that in para-carcinoma tissue (P < 0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the median disease-free survival was 41.5 months in c-MET high-expression group and 55.3 months in low-expression group. The expression level of c-MET was closely related to disease-free survival in lung adenocarcinoma patients (P < 0.05). Conclusions The expression of c-MET is significantly increased in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The expression level has relevance with TNM staging and prognosis.

OBJECTIVETo prepare and characterize rabbit polyclonal antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii vacuolar proton pyrophosphatase type I (TgVP1).

METHODS AND RESULTSTwo synthesized peptides TgVP1-1 and TgVP1-2 as the haptens were conjugated with KLH to immunize rabbits. Indirect ELISA showed that the titers of rabbit anti-TgVP1-1 polyclonal antibody and rabbit anti-TgVP1-2 polyclonal antibody reached 1:128 000. Western blotting results revealed that both purified polyclonal antibodies could specifically bind to a purified 85 kD T. gondii protein predicted as TgVP1. The protein detected by these two polyclonal antibodies was distributed in the cytoplasm of T. gondii tachyzoite, and this distribution pattern was consistent with that of acidocalcisome.

CONCLUSIONThe peptide-based method of antibody generation is efficient and the obtained TgVP1 polyclonal antibodies possess a high specificity to facilitate further study of T. gondii acidocalcisome and the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis.
