Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2010;17(16):2229-2230
Objective To explore the change of ECG after chemotherapy and radiotherapy in treatment of patients with breast cancer. Methods 58 patients with breast cancer were treated with surgery,after operation the observation group were treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy,and the control group was given chemotherapy singly.The change of ECG was compared between two groups. Results In the observation group,11 patients had abnormal ECG(37.93%),In the control group,2 patients had abnormal ECG(9.52%)(x2=8.03,P <0.05=.In addition,in the observation group the incidence of abnormal ECG in the patients with left breast cancer(7/15)was slightly higher than that with right breast cancer(4/14)(x2=1.01,P > 0.05). Conclusion The treatment of chemotherapy combined with radiation could significantly increase cardiac toxicity in the patients with breast cancer.

The quail model of hyperuricemia combined with abdominal obesity was induced by high purine diet.Body weight in model group showed no change.Serum uric acid level in model group was increased significantly on 7,14,21,and 28 d( P<0.05 or P<0.01 ).Abdominal fat index in model group increased significantly on 28d.On 7 d and 28 d,serum free fatty acid level was increased significantly.Acetyl-CoA carboxylase( ACC ) protein expression in the liver of model quail was increased as shown by ELISA and immunohistochemisty ( P<0.05 or P<0.01 ),suggesting that the alteration of ACC expression contributes to the pathogenesis of hyperuricemia combined with abdominal obesity.

OBJECTIVE To conduct the centralized management of the medical instrument in the supply room,and to assure the quality and validation of the clinical nursing and the patient safety. METHODS The cleaning and packing procedures of the instrument were standardized.The reusable instrument would be concentrated to clean,pack,and sterilize.To create a photograph management system,and use the photos to distinguish specialized instrument. RESULTS The instrument was reprocessed in the supply room instead of the clinical departments by the method of the centralized management of the instrument,which provided better instrument care and reprocessing. CONCLUSIONS The supply room conducts the centralized management of the medical instrument and enhances the quality of the instrument reprocessing.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of Heparin-binding protein (HBP) in maintenance hemodialysis patients in catheter-related infections.Methods 75 patients with maintenance hemodialysis were enrolled in the study and divided into observation group(n=45,with catheter-related infections) and control group(n=45,without catheter-related infections).The serum HBP,procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were detected.The values in diagnostic of catheter-related infections and Gram-negative bacterial infections were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve.Results There were 34 cases of patients infected by Gram-positive bacterial with the rate of 75.6% and 11 cases of patients infected by Gram-negative bacterial with rate of 24.4%.The serum HBP,PCT and CRP levels in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group and the serum HBP,PCT levels of patients infected by Gram-negative bacterial were higher than those of patients infected by Gram-positive bacterial (P<0.05).The area under curves of HBP,PCT,CRP in diagnosis of catheter-related infections were 0.955,0.890,0.871 with sensitivity of 86.7%,88.9%,62.2% and specificity of 93.3%,73.3%,93.3%.The value of HBP in diagnosis of Gram-negative bacteria infections was better than PCT and CRP.The area under ROC was 0.818 and the cut off value was HBP>27.52 μg/L with sensitivity of 100.0% and specificity of 61.8%.Conclusion Serum HBP,PCT and CRP may be the effective indicators for diagnosis of catheter-related infections,and the HBP has important reference value for diagnosis of Gram-negative bacterial infections.

Objective To investigate the effect of Alzheimer' s beta-amyloid (Aβ) on the production and the translocation in cytoplasm of retinoid receptor-α (RXRα). MethodsN2awt cells were treated with Aβ peptide or amyloid protein precursor(APP695) transfection. The nucleus were separated from the cytoplasm by kit. The quantity of RXRα in the nucleus and cytoplasm was detected by Westernblot. The translocation of RXRα in the nucleus and cytoplasm of above N2awt cells or of the cortex cells in the brains of Alzheimer' s disease (AD) patients and their normal control groups was observed by immune fluorescence. ResultsIn N2awt cells, the increasing APP or Aβ had no significant effect on the production of RXRα but resulted in RXRα exporting into cytoplasm, the ratio of RXRα in cytoplasm increased from 3.2% (in control group) to 17.6% (in APP+ group) and from 3.8% (in control group) to 14.3% (in Aβ + group) respectively; compared with normal cortex cells, the translocation of RXRα in the cytoplasm of the cortex cells in the brains of AD increased significantly. ConclusionAβ may affect RXRα exporting into cytoplasm.

Objective To study the intestinal microflora changes in children with Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura (HSP). Methods The feces of 64 children with HSP (the experimental group) and 25 healthy children (the control group) were collected. 16S rRNA/DNA fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction were performed to detect bacterial content of Lactobacillus, Biifdobacterium and Escherichia coli in feces. Results The amounts of Lactobacillus, and Biifdobacterium in the HSP group were lower than those of the healthy group, and the amounts of E.coli were higher, but the differences were not statistically signiifcant. The amounts of Lactobacillus and Biifdobacterium in the HSP children with gastrointestinal symptoms (abdominal pain, vomiting, e.g.) were signiifcantly lower than those in HSP children without gastrointestinal symptoms and in the healthy group. The difference was signiifcant (P<0.05). Conclusions It suggests that intestinal microlfora in children with HSP in acute phase may exist disorders, especially in the HSP children with gastrointestinal symptoms.

Objective To study the inhibition of AP-1 transcription factor activity by Hint1 gene over expression in HepG2 cell lines. Methods The Hintl gene was amplified, and then was inserted into the pcDNA3/HA eukaryotic expression plasmid. The constructed pHA-Hint1 plasmid was confirmed by DNA sequencing. The pHA-Hint1 was transfected into the HepG2 human hepatoma cells. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western-blot were used to detecte the expression of HA-Hint1. The HepG2 cells were co-transfected with pHA-Hint1 and pAP-1/Luc luciferase reporter. At 36 h after transfection, luciferase assay system was used to detect the AP-1 transcription factor activity. Results The constructed pHA-Hint1 was confirmed by DNA sequencing, pHA-Hint1 gene transduction through lipofectine induced over-expression in HA-Hint1 mRNA (t =3.89, P<0.05) and HA-Hintl protein (t=3. 12, P<0.05). Co-transfection of Hint1 gene inhibits AP-1 luciferase activity. Cotransfection with increased concentration of a pHA-Hint1 plasmid (0 μg/ml, 0. 5 μg/ml, 1.0 μg/ml, 1.5 μg/ml, 2. 0 μg/ml) produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of AP-1 transcription factor activity. At the concentration of 1.5 μg/ml, and 2.0 μg/ml, the activity inhibition reaches significant difference ( F = 72. 009, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Over-expression of Hintl can, at least in part, inhibit the AP-1 transcription factor activity in HepG2 cells.
