Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2013;20(18):2775-2776
Objective To investigate the significance of combined detection of serum tumor markers in the diagnosis of lung cancer,and to select the most sensitive serum tumor markers.Methods Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the serum tumor markers of 62 lung cancer patients and 62 healthy persons,who were neuron specific enolase enzyme (NES),carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA 125),cytokeratin 19 (CYFRA21-1) and carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA).Results The level of serum CEA,CA125,CYFRA21-1,and NES of the lung cancer group were all higher than those of the control group (all P < 0.05).Among the four kinds of tumor markers,CA125 had the highest sensitivity(59.7%),which was followed by CEA(53.2%).The sensitivity of the four kinds of joint detection was 87.1%,the highest sensitivity of three markers joint detection was CEA + CA125 + CYFRA21-1 (87.1%),while that of the two kinds of joint detection was CEA + CA125 (75.8%).Conclusion There are high clinical significance in the diagnosis of lung cancer with four kinds of serum tumor markers,CEA + CA125 + CYFRA21-1 can be used as the best markers for joint detection of lung cancer with high sensitivity.
2.Clinical features of pulmonary hypertension associated with hyperthyroidism
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2014;30(2):133-134
Eighty-seven patients with hyperthyroidism were enrolled in a retrospective study,and 35.6% of them also suffered from pulmonary hypertension(PH).Advanced age and systolic or diastolic dysfunction of left heart were risk factors in the mechanism of PH associated with hyperthyroidism (all P<0.05).However,autoimmune disorder was found as a non-related factor in the mechanism of PH(P>0.05).
3.HOXA5 gene and tumor
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(9):652-656
As a member of homeobox gene family,HOXA5 is expressed in many organs and can regulate gene expression,cell differentiation and morphogenesis.Its structure and (or) function abnormalities are closely related to the development of leukemia,breast cancer,brain hemangioma,hepatocellular carcinoma and so on.Researching the relationships between HOXA5 and tumors contributes to cancer diagnosis,treatment and prevention.
4.Meta analysis of BISAP score system in predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis
Chinese Journal of Pancreatology 2014;14(3):149-153
Objective To investigate the value of BISAP scoring system in predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis.Methods Medline,EMBASE,Science Direct,Springer link,CBM,Cnki,Wan fang and VIP database were retrieved by computer between January 2000 and March 2013,and articles of BISAP score system in predicting the acute pancreatitis were collected according to strict inclusion criteria.Quality assessment was made by QUADAS scale.Meta-Disc1.4 software was used to analyze the heterogeneity of included articles and perform quantitative synthesis,as well as calculate the pooled sensitivity and specificity,positive likelihood ratio,negative likelihood ratio,and draw the ROC curve,and the results were presented with 95% CI.Results A total of 11 articles were included,and there were 7 Chinese articles and 4 English articles.According to QUADAS scale,there were 4 articles of A grade,5 articles of B grade,2 articles of C grade.There were 6 studies using 2 as BISAP cut-off value,and 9 articles using 3 as cut-off value,while 4 studies using 2 cut-off values.Pooled analysis showed diagnostic odds ratio of 8.03 (95 % CI 5.66-11.38) when cut-off value was 2,and diagnostic odds ratio of 7.49 (95% CI 5.35-10.49) when cut-off value was 3.There were moderate heterogeneity in both groups (I2 =63.3 %,P =0.018; I2 =56.1%,P =0.019).When BISAP cut-off value was 2,the pooled analysis of sensitivity,specificity,positive likelihood ratio,negative likelihood ratio and area under curve (AUC) were 59% (95% CI56%-63%),82% (95% CI 80%-83%),3.50 (95% CI2.96-4.14),0.45 (95% CI0.36-0.56) and0.82; and when BISAP cut-off value was 3,the corresponding values were 44% (95% CI41%-47%),90% (95% CI 89%-91%),4.59 (95% CI 3.31-6.37),0.64 (95% CI 0.61-0.68) and 0.64.The former had a high sensitivity,low specificity and large AUC,while the latter had a low sensitivity,high specificity and small AUC.Conclusions The best cut-off value of BISAP in predicting SAP is 2.When cut-off value is 2,the misdiagnosis rate is low,and the false positive rate is in the acceptable range,which is suitable for clinical application.
5.The application of simulated patient role play in the inquiry and the medical record writing teaching
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2014;13(5):512-515
Objective To explore the application and effectiveness of simulated patient role play in the inquiry and the medical record writing teaching.Methods Carrying out the teaching model of simulated patient role play in the Second Clinical Medical College of Southern Medical University to the undergraduate students of grade 2009 snd 2010 in diagnose inquiry and medical record writing training class.A self-designed student questionnaire mainly about atmosphere of class,study enthusiasm,Self-evaluation of learning efficiency,the effect of the medical record writing in-class training and so on was used to do the survey.On the other hand,questionnaire for teachers included students' performance,students' writing ability,etc.100 students and 50 teachers were investigated with the survey.The percentage of the options of each question on the questionnaire was calculated in order to analyze the new teaching mode.Results The random questionnaire survey showed that 85% (85/100) of the students believe that the new teaching mode can activate classroom atmosphere and improve learning motivation.About 62%(62/100) of the students said medical record writing errors can be obtained and corrected timely in-class training.Most students in grade 2009 have better capacity in medical record writing than those students who did not contact with new teaching mode.Conclusion The teaching model of simulated patient role play in the analogue inquiry and medical record writing is efficient and feasible in medical education,which can improve students' practical ability and is expected to be applied in undergraduate medical education.

8.Effect of Electroacupuncture on Hand Dysfunction after Stroke
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2017;23(1):14-18
Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture on hand dysfunction after stroke. Methods Forty hemiplegic patients after stroke were selected from a multi-center large-scale trail, belonged to rehabilitation group (n=20) and electroacupuncture group (n=20), who accepted routine rehabilitation and additional electroacupuncture, respectively, for six weeks. They were assessed with Brunnstrom Grade, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT) and modified Barthel index (MBI) before treatment, two, four and six weeks during treatment, and twelve weeks after treatment. Results There were differences between two groups in scores of FMA, WMFT and total time to complete WMFT twelve weeks after treatment (t>1.900, P<0.05). There was no difference between two groups in scores of MBI and Brunnstrom Grade (t=0.532, Z<1.79, P>0.05), but electroacupuncture group seemed to improve more. Conclusion Elec-troacupuncture may improve the muscle strength for patients in flaccid paralysis, and promote the recovery of hand function for patients af-ter stroke.

In order to solve some limitations and difficulties in guiding the practical work of determination and classification of the areas of high water iodine and the endemic areas of iodine excess goiter (GB/T 19380-2003),we carried out the revision on the original standard from 5 aspects such as the name,normative reference file,the definition and the technical indicators of classification of high iodine areas and the endemic areas of iodine excess goiter,such as sampling method in appendix and so on,and worked out the standard of definition and demarcation of water-borne iodine-excess areas and iodine-excess endemic areas.Enforcement of the new standard will bring important social benefits.
10.On the Medical Ethical Significance of Charity Philosophy
Chinese Medical Ethics 1994;0(05):-
The construction of charity culture has always been a weak element in medical institutions,thus it is in great need to promote the construction of ideological and charity culture.Medical staff should cultivate themselves with charity philosophy to promote their sincerity,comfort,and self-cultivation for medical career,and combine charity philosophy and medical ethics so as to add charity to their clinical thinking,ideology and behaviors.Therefore,medical staff's morality of medical service can be enhanced gradually.
