Objective To investigate the effect of health education and behavioral intervention on the self-perceived burden of patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumor at end-stage.Methods From March 2012 to April 2013,70 patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumor whose lifetime was estimated to be within 6 months were extracted from five general hospitals in Tangshan.70 patients were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group with 35 cases in each group.The two groups samely received routine nursing care,while the intervention group was given health education and behavioral intervention.Both groups were evaluated by SPBS-CP before and after intervention.Results The scores of the intervention group after intervention were lower than before intervention and the control group,which were reflected in 3 dimensions such as care burden,psychological and emotional burden and treatment burden.Conclusions Health education and behavioral intervention can effectively relieve self-perceived burden of patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumor at end-stage.

BACKGROUND: Our previous studies have demonstrated that cryopreserved bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) still maintain high survival rate, cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation potentials after thawing. However, this result needs confirmed in vivo environment. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of cryopreserved BMSCs and collagenic membrane BME-10X complex on type Ⅰ collagen synthesis in vivo. METHODS: Beagle dog BMSCs were cultured in vitro and cryopreserved for 12 months, which were thawed and prepared complexes with collagenic membrane. The complexes were cultured with mineralization induction medium or normal medium for 5 days, followed by implanting into nude mice. The specimens were harvested and analyzed by gross observation, histopathological and immunohistochemistry at 4 weeks after implantation. The collagenic membrane cultured with mineralization induction medium served as controls. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the control group, the boundary of collagenic membrane was distinctly, without cell growth around boundary or intra collagenic membrane, additionally, there was little type Ⅰ collagen. In the non-induction group, cells grew into collagenic membrane, trabes-like collagen formed, and type Ⅰ collagen distribution increased at 4 weeks. In the induction group, scaffold degraded, more cells grew, and plenty of collagen formed osteoid-like tissues. The distribution of typeⅠcollagen was obviously increased than that of other groups. The findings demonstrated that cryopreserved BMSCs possess strong osteogenic differentiation potentials after proliferation and induction combined with collagenic membranes in vitro.

Objective By using PEG-PLL and OPG-expressing plasmid to synthesize a nanocompound PEG-PLL-OPG (PPO), to investigate its effects on osteoblasts (OB) and arteriosclerosis (AS) in mice. Methods The incidences of osteoporosis (OP) and AS were studied in people. Collect people′s serum , and divide them into different groups According to the results of diagnosis, the patients were grouped into the groups of Control, AS, OP, and AS. PPO was used to deal with OB in different groups. The cell apoptosis, cell activity, the adhersion and calcification to scaffold PCL were determined by flow cytometry, MTT, alizarin red stain and SEM,respectively. PPO was also injected intp the ApoE-/-RANKL+/+ mice via caudal vein to demonstrate its effects on BMD and AS. Results PPO could increase the cell activity , inhibit OB apoptosis and promote cell adhersion and calcifica-tion on scaffold PCL in vitro. PPO could also decrease the area and calcification of atheromatous plaque , and in-crease the BMD of collum femoris in vivo. Conclusion PPO may be a new drug for OP and AS treatments.

OBJECTIVETo explore the incidence, influence factors and treatment methods of oral mucositis (OM) following hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (HSCT).

METHODSA clinical analysis about the total 71 OM cases occurring after HSCT among 166 patients in Peking University People's Hospital during 2009 was completed.

RESULTSThe healing rate of OM was 95.77% and the average healing time was (17.61 +/- 8.36) d after HSCT. There were no obvious effects of gender, age, HLA matches, conditioning regimen to the healing time of OM (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONGender, age, HLA matches and conditioning regimen have no obvious effects on healing time. By given timely and effective treatment, the incidence of OM can be reduced and even severe OM can also be well cured.

Objective To investigate the mechanisms underlying neuroprotection of silent information regulation 2 homolog 3 ( SIRT3 ) against hypoxia via preconditioning.Methods PG12 cells were randomly divided into control,hypoxic preconditioning ( Hyp),Hyp with oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) and OGD.MTT assay and DAPI staining were used to evaluate cellular viability.MitoSOX Red was used to measure the production of mitochondrial superoxide.The protein expression of SIRT3,PGC-1α and MnSOD were assessed by Western blot.Recombinant SIRT3 was also given to further investigate its roles in hypoxic preconditioning.Results The preconditioned PC12 cells had a higher survival rate.When expressed as a percentage of the control group,MTT values following 6 h OGD were around 51.0% in the OGD group but around 74.7% in the Hyp + OGD group ( F = 56,P ＜ 0.01).Mitochondrial ROS after Hyp was less than the OGD group.Both Hyp + OGD and OGD increased the expression of SIRT3,PGC-1α and MnSOD proteins,and these increases were greater after Hyp + OGD.Similarly,the application of recombinant SIRT3 to OGD also further increased the expression of these proteins.Conclusions Hypoxic preconditioning can protect PC12 cells against hypoxic injury.One possible mechanism of hypoxic preconditioning is via SIRT3 to upregulate PGC-la and,in turn,MnSOD to reduce generation of ROS.

Objective To analyze the association of blood uric acid level with the severity of coronary artery stenotic changes, metabolic syndrome (MS), and its components. Methods A total of 343 individuals ( male 223,female 120) who underwent coronary angiography and had complete data on MS and serum uric acid were collected. The severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) was assessed by the coronary stenesis index (CSI). MS was diagnosed according to the Guideline on Prevention and Treatment of Blood Lipid Abnormality in Chinese Adults. Results (1)The mean uric acid level was significantly lower in women than in men [ ( 306.3±76.9 vs 358.9±85.2 ) μmol/L, P＜0.01 ]. The prevalence of MS and its components showed no difference between men and women. (2) The uric acid level in women with 3 components was higher than those with1( P＜0. 01 ) or 2 ( P＜0.05 ) components of metabolic disorders, but not in men. (3) Quartiles of concentration of uric acid were computed. Compared with those in the lowest quartile of uric acid, women in the highest quartile had higher CSI score [ 7.0 (2.5-12.0) vs 2. 0( 0.0-6.0), P= 0. 025 ]. Moreover, the uric acid level was higher in women with multivessel lesions than nonCAD patients [ (327.0±81.9 vs 284.9±78.6) μmol/L, P = 0.033 ]. However, no correlation was found between uric acid level and the severity of coronary artery lesion in men. (4) Logistic regression showed that age (β=0.042, P=0. 007) and dyslipidemia(β=0.836, P=0. 037 ) were the independent risk factors of CAD in men, and hypertension(β=1. 127, P=0.039) and dyslipidemia(β=0.901, P=0.009)in women. Conclusions In women with higher uric acid level, the clustering of metabolic abnormalities was increased, and the coronary artery lesion was more severe. High uric acid level might be a marker of CAD for women.
