Objective To study the clinical value of serum SA,EMA and GPDA in the diagnosis of gastric cancer.Methods To detect serum SA,EMA and GPDA in 30 patients with gastric cancer patients,25 patients with gastric precancerous lesions and 35 patients with non-atrophic gastritis with electronic gastroscope and pathological examination confirmed,compared the differences betwwen the groups,and analyze the relationship between the expressions of them and clinical biology of gastric carcinoma.Results The serum concentrations of SA and GPDA in gastric carcinoma are remarkably higher than those in non-atrophic gastritis and gastric precancerous lesions(P0.05).The concentrations of GPDA in non-atrophic gastritis group are age-related(P0.05).Conclusion It has an important reference value for the diagnosis of gastric cancer to detect serum SA and GPDA.SA and GPDA together can improve the accuracy of the diagnosis of gastric cancer.EMA serum possibly has no diagnostic value for gastric cancer.The expressions of SA,GPDA in serum are related to the biology behaviors of gastric carcinoma,and the concentrations of SA,GPDA in serum is helpful in judging metastasis and recrudescence,and monitoring prognosis.

Objective To study the effect of PCR and bacterial culture in vaginal bacteria test.Methods A total of 84 patients were enrolled in the department of obstetrics and gynecology, affiliated hospital of Nankai university, from February 2014 to March 2016.Vaginal secretion was collected and tested by PCR(group A, n=42), and bacterial culture(group B, n=42).Vaginal bacteria test Resultswere compared in the two groups.ResultsEnterococcus were positive in 13 cases(30.95%)in group A, 3 cases(7.14%)in group B, gardnerella vaginalis were positive in 10 cases(23.81%)in group A, 19 cases(45.24%)in group B;Corynebacterium were positive in 13 cases(30.95%)in group A, 5 cases(11.91%)in group B.Negative rate of vaginal bacterial test was 14.29% in group A, 35.71% in group B.In the above data, the differences between the 2 groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion PCR test can effectively improve the positive rate of vaginal bacterial examination, and provide an objective basis for clinical treatment.

Objective To explore the duration of blood blocking effect and recovery process induced by low-frequency ultrasound combining microbubbles (USMB) on prostate cancer xenografts.Methods A total of 88 nude mice undergoing USMB was studied.Contrast enhanced ultrasound,Hemotoxylin and eosin staining,and modified Martius-Sarlet-Blue staining were used to compared the average peak intensity(API),time to peak intensity(TP) and histological alteration before and after treatment.Results Immediately after the treatment,the tumor contrast perfusion completely disappeared,API dropped from 68.63±5.25 to 18.01±2.73 (P<0.001,vs pre-treatment) and TP increased from (32.28±6.18)s to (72.63±7.47)s (P<0.001,vs pre-treatment).At 30 minutes and 1 hour after treatment,the tumor perfusion remained defect.At 2 hours after treatment,rarely dotted enhancement was showed.The differences among the three groups in API and TP at 30 minutes,1 hour and 2 hours after treatment were not significant (all P>0.05).From post-3 hours after treatment ,the tumor perfusion began a process of perfusion recovery,and showed nodular or large patch of heterogeneous enhancement.API at 3 hours after treatment was 51.99±6.20 (P<0.001,vs post treatment immediately),and TP decreased to (50.41±6.51)s (P<0.001,vs post treatment immediately).At 4 hours,5 hours,6 hours,12 hours and 24 hours after treatment ,CEUS showed homogeneous and rich enhancement,and there was no significant difference in both API and TP,compared with those pre-treatment (all P>0.05,vs pre-treatment).Histological examinations showed that,immediately after treatment,microvessels severely dilated,ruptured and intravascular and extravascular thrombi formed.At 30 minutes,1-hour and 2-hour after treatment,extravascular thrombi and hematomas gradually disappeared.From 3-hour after treatment,vessel dilation was lessened,and intravascular thrombi gradually shrank.At 12-hour after treatment,microvessels had almost fully recovered as pre-treatment.Conclusions USMB could block blood perfusion of prostate cancer xenografts in nude mice for 2 hours.The blood reperfusion is probably mainly caused by thrombolysis in microvessels.

Objective:To investigate the influence of collaborative psychological nursing on the quality of life and psychology of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients and their caregivers.Methods:Eighty NHL patients and 80 caregivers in the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from February 2018 to February 2019 were selected, and the patients were divided into observation group 1 (40 patients) and control group 1 (40 patients) according to the random number table method, and the caregivers were divided into observation group 2 (40 caregivers) and control group 2 (40 caregivers). Control group 1 was given routine nursing, and observation group 1 was given collaborative psychological nursing on the basis of routine nursing. The World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL)-BREF was used to compare the quality of life of two groups of patients and two groups of caregivers. Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used to compare the psychological states of two groups of patients and two groups of caregivers.Results:Compared with control group 1, the observation group 1 had lower SAS and SDS scores after nursing [(40±6) points vs. (44±6) points, t = 5.12, P = 0.014; (46±4) points vs. (52±4) points, t = 3.22, P = 0.031] and higher WHOQOL-BREF scores [(87.2±2.1) points vs. (65.0±2.5) points, t = 8.55, P = 0.018]. Compared with control group 2, the observation group 2 had lower SAS and SDS scores after nursing [(37±4) points vs. (40±4) points, t = 3.21, P = 0.021; (44±4) points vs. (49±3) points, t = 2.37, P = 0.032] and higher WHOQOL-BREF scores [(84.0±2.5) points vs. (79.5±2.7) points, t = 3.28, P=0.015]. Compared with before nursing, SAS and SDS of each group decreased after nursing, while WHOQOL-BREF scores increased, and all differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Collaborative psychological nursing can effectively improve the quality of life and mental resilience score of NHL patients and their caregivers.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the supportive policies for caregivers issued in China, and analyze the structures and contents. MethodsThe national supportive policies for family caregivers in China within the past decade were text-mined using ROSTCM 6.0. Secondary indicators were established according to the Policy Modeling Consistency (PMC) index model combining with World Health Organization six blocks of health services. ResultsThe average PMC score was 7.38. There were seven good policies and three accepted policies. The policies covered well in publicity, recipients and functions, and needed to improve in incentive and restraint. ConclusionChina's policies have played a positive role in supporting family caregivers. It is needed to reduce the burden on family caregivers and improve their welfare.

Objective To evaluate the effect of low frequency ultrasound on the volume of the radiofrequency ablation lesion in canine hyperplasia prostate tissue.Methods A total of 9 experimental dogs were divided into three groups(3 in each group).Radiofrequency ablation was performed on the canine prostates.Low-frequency ultrasound was performed before the ablation of the experimental group.Radiofrequency ablation or low-frequency ultrasound was performed only in the control groups.Then all experiment animals underwent routine rectal examination,contrast-enhanced ultrasonography and MRI.The volume of prostate ablation lesions in enhanced magnetic resonance imaging was compared between the low-frequency ultrasound irradiation plus radiofrequency ablation group and the control group with radiofrequency ablation only.Statistical analysis was performed using the t-test to compare the differences between groups.Results Contrast enhanced ultrasonography(CEUS)performed immediately after low-frequency ultrasound irradiation showed that the time to peak of intra-prostatic contrast agent shortened,the maximum intensity decreased compared with those before irradiation [(28.55±10.88)s vs(14.81±5.15)s,t=2.796,P=0.0189],and the contrast agent duration increased [(2046.56±424.66)dB s vs(1454.82±458.12)dB s],the difference was statistically significant(t=2.32,P=0.0427).CEUS and MRI can accurately evaluate the size of the prostate radiofrequency ablation.The ablation volume of the experimental group after ablation was(1.27 ± 0.21)cm3in the experimental group,while the volume of the ablation group in the control group was(0.73±0.18)cm3,and the difference was statistically significant(t=3.382,P=0.0277); however,the other group which were only exposed to low-frequency ultrasound did not show lesions.Conclusion Low frequency ultrasound irradiation can effectively block the blood flow in proliferative prostatic tissue,and combined with radiofrequency ablation can effectively increase the volume of ablation.

Objective:To investigate the impacts of atrial high-rate episodes (AHRE) on the risks of new onset of atrial fibrillation and all-cause mortality in elderly patients over 90 years old after cardiac dual-chamber pacemaker implantation.Methods:This study was a retrospective study. Patients aged 90 years and above who were implanted with cardiac dual-chamber pacemakers and followed up in the People′s Liberation Army General Hospital from January 2017 to June 2022 were enrolled and divided into AHRE≥6 h group and AHRE<6 h group according to the onset time of AHRE. The primary endpoint was new onset of atrial fibrillation, and the secondary endpoints were all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was poltted, and log-rank test was used to compare the differences in the incidence of new onset of atrial fibrillation, all-cause death and cardiovascular death between AHRE≥6 h and AHRE<6 h groups. Multivariate Cox survival analysis was used to investigate the factors affecting new onset of atrial fibrillation, all-cause death and cardiovascular death in elderly patients aged 90 years and above with dual-chamber pacemaker implantation.Results:A total of 169 patients were enrolled, aged (93.95±3.28) years, including 18 females (11%). The median follow-up time was 28.9 months. There were 87 and 82 patients in AHRE≥6 h group and AHRE<6 h group, respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the incidence of new onset of atrial fibrillation (log-rank P<0.001), all-cause death (log-rank P=0.004) and cardiovascular death (log-rank P=0.026) in AHRE≥6 h group was significantly higher than that in AHRE<6 h group.After adjusting for traditional risk factors, multivariate Cox survival analysis showed that AHRE≥6 h was an independent risk factor for new onset of atrial fibrillation ( HR=4.046, 95% CI 2.402-6.814, P<0.001) and all-cause mortality ( HR=1.668, 95% CI 1.119-2.487, P=0.012) in elderly patients over 90 years old with cardiac dual-chamber pacemaker implantation. However, AHRE≥6 h had no effect on cardiovascular mortality ( P>0.05). Anemia ( HR=3.098, 95% CI 1.342-7.153, P=0.008) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction ( HR=3.028, 95% CI 1.181-7.763, P=0.021) were both independently associated with cardiovascular mortality. Conclusions:AHRE is common in cardiac dual-chamber pacemakers recipients aged 90 years and above, and AHRE≥6 h can be used as a predictor of new onset of atrial fibrillation or all-cause mortality in these patients.
