Objective To observe effect of home nursing on prevention and control of asthma. Methods Emergency patients(85 cases) were divided into the treatment group(42 cases) and the control group (43 cases).The control group received routine medical treatment after emergency management.The treatment group was given family intervention based upon routine medical treatment,the family intervention included regular visits or telephone followup,short message or internet multimedia, etc.These interventions supplied correct medication method,self-monitoring of asthma, self first-aid at acute attack,how to seek medical emergency treatment and psychological support,ete.The followup continued for 1 year. The asthma control test (ACT) was adopted to compare the clinical effect of the two groups. Results The control rate of the treatment group was greatly improved compared with that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclu-sion Family intervention played a pivotal role in the improvement of control rate of asthma.

Objective To study the causes of mis diagnosis and the experience of diagnosis and management for cholelithiasis complicated with abdominal tumors.Methods Clinical data of 36 cases of cholelithiasis complicated with abdominal tumors were analyzed retrospectively.Among them,24 were male,12 female.The age ranged from 48 to 82 year old.Each case was diagnosis as cholelithiasis and admitted to our hospital.Results In 36 patients,18 was diagnosed as complecated with abdominal tumors preoperatively;12 was diagnosed intraoperatively,while in 6 cases the tumor was misdiagmosed for 5 days to 3 months,finally the tumor was comfirmed by reoperation and pathology.Among the 36 cases,the tumors cluding 5 of carcinoma of gallbladder(13.9%),4 of cholangiocarcinoma(11.1%),3 of hepatoma(8.3%),6 of pancreatic carcinoma(16.7%),6 of gastric carcinoma(16.7%),7 of colon carcinoma(19.4%),2 of rectal carcinoma(5.5%).Of them,2 cases refused operation,2 cases underwent intervention operation,the others reseived operation.During primary operation,radical resection of the tumor and cholecystectomy and/or common bile duct(CBD) exploration was performed in 18 patients,palliation resection and cholecystectomy and/or CBD exploration performed in 4 patients,exploratory laparotomy performed in 4 patients,and only LC and/or CBD exploration performed in 6 patients.Of the latters,reoperation was performed 5 days to 3 months after primary operation.4 patients had tumor radical resection,1 had palliation resection,and 1 had interventional therapy.Conclusions Cholelithiasis may complicated with abdominal tumor,especially with digestive tract tumor.For cholelithiasis patient the history-taking need to be done carefully before operation.For the senile patient and the patient without typical symptoms or physical signs,the systems checking shoud be done carefully preoperatively,and abdominal cavity should be checked carefully intraoperatvely to find the tumor,which may exist in abdominal cavity.the patient with syndrome of post-cholecystectomy shoud be carefully followed up to avoid the mis diagnosis and mistreatment of the tumor.

Objective To improve the sensitivity of detection of protein P16 by FCM.Methods Protein P16 of blood cells and tumor cells in biopsy samples were labeled simultaneously with anti-CD45 and anti-P16 fluorescent antibody.The rates of CD45+P16+ cells and CD45-P16+ cells were calculated by FCM.Results The low expression rates of protein P16 in normal blood cells and in tumor cells in biopsy samples were 15.39%(6/39) and 69.23%(27/39),respectively, which had a significant differences (P

Objective To analyze the clinical value of the second generation hybrid capture nucleic acid detection kit (DH3) of human papillomavirus (HPV) in screening cervical cancer and precancerous lesions.Methods The cervical exfoliated cell samples of 480 women in gynecologic clinic were collected and detected by DH3,TCT and HPV-PCR.Colposcopic pathological examination was performed in women with TCT ≥ ASC-US.With the pathological results as the golden standard,the diagnostic value of DH3 was analyzed.Results The pathological results showed that 370 cases were normal (77.08％),59 cases had benign lesions (≤CIN Ⅰ) (12.29％) and 51 were high-risk cases (≥CIN Ⅱ) (10.63％).The positive diagnostic rates of TCT,HPV-PCR and DH3 were 26.04％,32.08％ and 27.08％,respectively.The concordancerate of DH3 and TCT was 94.79％ (P ＜ 0.01),and the concordance rate with HPV-PCR was 93.13％ (P ＜ 0.01).The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy rate of DH3 were 98.18％,87.57％,70.13％,99.39％ and 90％,respectively.The ROC area of detection of high-risk (CIN Ⅱ) was Z =0.887 (95 ％ CI 0.785 ～ 0.918,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion DH3 kit has a high degree of consistency with TCT and HPV-PCR in the detection of HPV cervical cancer and precancerous lesions.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy are high,and it is easy to operate.

OBJECTIVETo assess the frequencies of CYP21A2 gene mutations among patients from Fujian area with classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency.

METHODSFor 19 probands from different families affected with classical steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency and 74 family members, mutations of the CYP21A2 gene were analyzed with combined nested polymerase chain reaction, Sanger sequencing and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. Time resolved fluorescence immunoassay was performed to determine the level of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) in all family members. Clinical data and laboratory results of the probands and their family members were analyzed.

RESULTSEleven mutations were identified among the 38 alleles from the 19 probands. 92.1% (35/38) of the mutant CYP21A2 alleles were due to recombination between CYP21A2 and CYP21A1P. Gene conversion and deletions were identified in 84.2% (32/38) and 7.9% (3/38) of the alleles, respectively. IVS2-13A/C>G and chimeras were the most common mutations, which respectively accounted for 34.2% (13/38) and 18.4% (7/38) of all mutant alleles. Among these, IVS2+1G>A and Q318X+356W were first reported in China. 74.3% (55/74) of the family members were carriers of heterozygous mutations. However, no significant difference was found in the 17-OHP levels between carriers and non-carriers (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONThere seems to be a specific spectrum of CYP21A2 gene mutations in Fujian area, where IVS2-13A/C>G and chimeras are the most common mutations.

OBJECTIVETo study the characteristics of phenylalanine hydroxylase gene (PAH) mutations in patients with PAH deficiency in Fujian population.

METHODSPeripheral blood samples of 36 patients and their parents with classical type phenylketouria (PKU) were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted. Following PCR amplification, DNA sequencing was carried out to identify the origins of mutations.

RESULTSTwenty types mutations were identified in 63 of the 72 alleles. The most common mutations were R241C, R408Q and Ex6-96A>G, which respectively accounted for 15.9%, 12.7% and 11.1% of all mutant alleles. The c.189_190dupTGAC mutation was first reported. R241C was associated with 28% of mild hyperphenylalaninemia and R408Q is associated with 25% of classical PKU.

CONCLUSIONThere is a specific spectrum of PAH gene mutation in Fujian region. R241C, R408Q and Ex6-96A>G are the most common mutations.
