Objective To study the incidence of PTEN, p53 and Ki-67 expression in astrocytoma and show the relationship between PTEN, p53 expression and the proliferation activity. Methods The surgical specimens from 68 brain astrocytoma patients were analysed to detect PTEN, p53 and Ki-67 expression with immunohistochemical method. Results The incidence of PTEN, p53 and Ki-67 expression was 54.4 %,45.6 % and 48.5 % respectively in astrocytoma. With the grade of astrocytoma increasing the levels of PTEN protein decreased, on the other hand the levels of p53, Ki-67 increased. There was a negative correlation between PTEN expression and grade of astrocytoma while there was a positive correlation between p53, Ki-67 expression and grade of astrocytoma by using the Spearman Correlation test to analyse the data. The incidence of Ki-67 positive expression was 24.3 % in 37 cases exhibiting PTEN positive staining, whereas the incidence of Ki-67 positive expression was 77.4 % in 31 cases exhibiting PTEN negative staining. In statistics, there was an inverse correlation between PTEN and Ki-67 expression. Conclusion There is an inverse correlation between histopathological grades of astrocytoma and PTEN expression. A positive correlation is found between p53, Ki-67 expression and histopathological grades of astrocytoma. PTEN can inhibit tumor cell proliferation in astrocytoma.

Objective To investigate the relationship between satisfaction of nursing service and nurses' personality and mental state.Methods 368 nurses ,288 patients and 234 dependents involved the investigation.Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory(MMPI)was used to analyze nurses' personality.Symptom Checklist-90(SCL-90),Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)were used to analyze nurses' mental states.A self-made questionnaire on satisfaction was used to investigate the satisfaction degree of patients and dependents with nursing service.The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis.Results The average score on satisfaction with the nurses' service was(8.29±0.98)and the average score on satisfaction with nurses' attitude was(8.19±1.21).The satisfaction with nurses' service was negatively correlated with the MMPI factors of manifest anxiety and dependency and positively with dominance of MMPI(both P<0.05).Satisfaction with nurses' attitude was negatively correlated with total score of SAS,dependency of MMPI,compulsion,anxiety,hostility and paranoid ideation of SCL-90(all P<0.05).Satisfaction with the service attitude was positively correlated with social responsibility of MMPI(P<0.05). Conclusion Satisfaction degree of patients and their dependents is related to nurses' personality and mental states.It's helpful to establish good relationship between nurses and patients and improve the clinical nursing service to perfect nurse's personality and relieve psychological stress on nurses.

Objective To probe a simple, safe, and minimally invnsive method to treat ectopic pregnancy with preservation of the organs. Methods Superselective catheterization of uterine artery through cannulation of right femoral artery was achieved in 56 patients with ectopic pregnancy. Location of the lesions involved, feeding arteries, and active bleeding were observed on angiography. 150 mg of methylamine neopterin diluted in 100 ml of saline water was infused slowly into the target artery. Small gelatin spongy particles with size of 0.5 mm in diameter were used to embelize the uterine artery until its branches were totally obliterated. Follow-up was undertaken to observe the results of the treatment. Results Suporselective uterine arterial infusion and embolization were successfully performed in all 56 patients without any related complications. Active bleeding in the peritoneum in 33 cases ceased soon after embolization. The embryos in 13 patients were confirmed to have died by ultrasound two days after the procedure. Beta-HCG value dropped to below 5 U/L within two to twelve days. Hemorrhage in the peritoneum dissolved after seven days in all cases. Mixed mass disappeared after one month. Histerosalpingography was performed three months after the procedure in 19 patients and patent fallopians were demonstrated in 11 patients. Conclusions Superselective uterine arterial infusion and embolization is a minimally invasive procedure, which can be used to effectively treat ectopic pregnancy by disabling the ectopic embryo and embelizing leaking arteries with the advantages of preserving the fallopian tubes.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for clopidogrel resistance (CR) in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods Turbidimatry was used to measure the platelet aggregation rate changes after the patients with acute ischemic stroke taking 75 mg of clopidogrel per day for 10-14 days.The patients were divided into either a CR or a clopidogrel sensitivity (CS) group according to the platelet aggregation rate changes.The demographic and clinical data of both groups were compared.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for CR.Results A total of 147 patients with acute ischemic stroke were included,42 of them (28.57％ ) were in the RC group and 105 (71.43％) were in the CS group.The proportion of patients in diabetes (54.76％ vs.11.43％ ;x2 =31.054,P =0.000),the history of transient ischemic attack (TIA) (80.95％ vs.26.67％ ;x2 =36.251,P=0.000) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (26.19％ vs.3.81％;x2 =16.400,P=0.000),taking calcium channel blocker (CCB) (83.33％ vs.54.29％ ;x2 =10.810,P =0.001 ),angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) (66.67％ vs.42.86％;x2 =6.803,P=0.009),and proton pump inhibitor (47.62％ vs. 14.29％;x2 =18.375,P =0.000) in the CR group,as well as the levels of plasma total cholesterol (TC),glucose,and glycated hemoglobin were significantly higher than those in the CS group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes (odds ratio [ OR] 13.711,95％ confidence interval [ CI] 1.667 - 112.784; P =0.015),increased TC level (OR 2.828,95％CI 1.574 - 5.080; P =0.001),previous history of TIA (OR16.627,95％ CI 4.691 - 58.934; P =0.000),and long-term taking CCB (OR 4.147,95％ CI 1.053 - 16.332;P =0.042),and ACEI/ARB (OR 4.841,95％ CI 1.539 - 15.231; P =0.007) were the independent risk factors for CR.Conclusions CR in patients with ischemic stroke is associated with a variety of factors,in which diabetes,increased TC,as well as long-term taking CCB and ACEI/ARB are the independent risk factors for CR.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of androgen receptor (AR) and embryonic stem cell associated transcripts 4 (NANOG) in breast cancer patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) over-expression, and to analyze its relationship with clinicopathologic features of breast cancer. Methods 143 breast cancer patients with HER-2 over-expression were selected from the screening of 1052 cases of invasive breast cancer according to estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER-2 status. The protein expression of AR and NANOG was assayed by using immunohistochemistry.The relationship between AR expression and clinicopathological features was analyzed by χ2 test. The correlation between AR expression and NANOG expression was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. Results The positive expression of AR was 35.7 % (51/143). The AR expression was not associated with age and menstruation status (both P>0.05), and was associated with tumor size, clinical TNM staging and lymphatic metastasis (all P< 0.05). The positive rate of NANOG were 53.1 %(76/143), and NANOG proteins were negative in adjacent normal breast tissue and benign breast lesions. The positive rate of AR was 27.6%(21/76) in NANOG-positive cases, whereas the positive rate of AR was 44.8%(30/67) in NANOG-negative cases, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.526, P=0.033). There was an inverse correlation between NANOG and AR expressions (r= -0.255, P= 0.002). Conclusion AR and NANOG may be new targets for endocrine therapy and molecular biological therapy.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological features of back pain, spondyloarthritis (SPA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in Beijing Shougang district. Methods Set up Chinese version of questionnaire about incidence of spondyloarthro-pathy. Employees and retired ones were drawn out from subfactory units by non-randomized sampling. 15 357 subjects were investigated, of which 12 125 questionnaires were taken. Suspected cases were then screened with sacroiliac joint X ray and HLA-B27 testing. 2009 assessment in ankylosing spondylitis (ASAS) criteria were used for diagnosing SpA. Results Back pain is common with total incidence of 42.7%, and the most common pattern is mechanical pain. The incidence of SpA is 0.58% and that of AS is 0.36%, while only 28.9% AS patients had been diagnosed before and received treatment. Conclusion The AS incidence in Shougang district is similar with the epidemiological data got from other districts of China. And knowledge of SpA and AS is needed in China.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the use of Enterprise stent in the treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS) . Methods The clinical data of 27 patients with sICAS, who were treated with Enterprise stent implantation at First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, China, during the period from January 2012 to December 2017, were retrospectively collected. The patient's basic parameters, characteristics of target lesions, technical success rate, perioperative safety and follow-up results were analyzed. Results A total of 27 patients (28 lesions in total) were enrolled in this study, and a total of 28 Enterprise stents were implanted. The preoperative mean stenosis degree of lesions was (75.7 ±6.7) ％, the postoperative residual stenosis degree was (23.2 ±16.6) ％. The technical success rate was 100％. Postoperative complication of perforating branch events occurred in 2 patients. No severe complications such as hemorrhage, artery dissection, in-stent thrombosis, hyper-perfusion syndrome, or cardiovascular events occurred. All patients were followed up for (10.8±9.1) months, and 3 instent restenosis lesions (≥50％) were detected although the patients had no target lesion-related symptoms, the incidence of in-stent restenosis was 10.7％. No newly-developed stroke caused by responsible blood vessel, bleeding events or death occurred. Conclusion For the treatment of sICAS, balloon dilatation followed by Enterprise stent implantation is technically feasible, and clinically safe and effective. The incidence of perioperative complications is low and the follow-up results are satisfactory. Further randomized controlled trials are still needed before its long-term efficacy is clarified.

Objective To analyze the differences in the PDCD1 gene copy number of hepatocellular carcinoma and paracancerous tissues in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after HBV infection.Methods Analysis PDCD1 gene copy number of 27 paraffin embedded specimens of hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and para carcinoma tissues of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after resection by Taqman real-time PCR.Results The gene copy number of PDCD1 of hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and paracancerous tissue had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05) ; the gene copy number of PDCD1 and preoperative AFP levels of hepatocellular carcinoma and paracancerous tissues had no significant correlation (P ＞ 0.05).Gene copy number of PDCD1 of hepatocellular carcinoma and paracancerous tissues had no significant correlation with tissue tumor malignant degree (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PD-1 plays a role in the escape response of tumor immunity,but the PDCD1 gene copy number variation of hepatocellular carcinoma and paracancerous tissues is not a factor in carcinogenesis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma.
