1.MicroRNA and tumors
Journal of International Oncology 2008;35(11):803-806
MicroRNAs are a class of small(about 20-24 nueleotides),endogenous,noneoding RNA molecules that regulate a wide array of physiologic processes,such as growth and developmenL In recent years,some researches show that the tissues from tumors have aberrant mieroRNA profiling compared with normal tis-sues.The abnormal miemRNA profiling can affect the genesis,proliferation,differentiation,metastasis and recur-renee of tumors.The different expressions of microRNA Can not only help for the diagnosis of tumors,but also evaluate the prognosis of tumors.Disturbing several miemRNA expressions can decrease the volumes of tumor and inhibit the peritoneal metastasis 80 as to treat the tumor by using anti-mieroRNA drugs in animal expedments.
2.Delta-like ligand 4 and tumour angiogenesis
International Journal of Surgery 2009;36(2):116-119
Delta-like ligand 4(Dll4), one ligand of Notch receptors, is highly expressed in tumour vessels and is negative regulator in tumour angiogenesis. Blocking Dll4/Notch sinaling could promote tumour angiogenesis, whereas due to poor perrusion of newly forming vessels, tumour growth is inhibited, which is effective even to the tumour patients unresponsive to blocking vascular endothelial growth factor pathway. So, Dll4 is becoming a new promising target in anti-tumour theraties.
3.Advances of delta-like ligand 4 and tumour angiogenesis
International Journal of Surgery 2008;35(9):636-639
Delta-like ligand 4 (D114), one ligand of Notch receptors, was highly expressed in turnout vessels and was a negative regulator in tumour angiogenesis. Blocking D114/Notch signaling could promote tnmour angiogen-esis, whereas due to poor peffnsion of newly forming vessels, tumour growth was inhibited, which was effective even to the tumour patients unresponsive to blocking VEGF pathway. So, D114 is becoming a new promising target in anti-tumour therapies.

The metabolic syndrome is a complex disorder of several metabolic abnormalities,which represents a risk factor of type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases.Insulin resistance seems to play a significant role in pathoyenesis of metabolic syndrome.Many issues concerning definition,pathophysiology and optimal treatment of metabolic syndrome are reviewed in this article.
5.A research about the influence of blood pressure when measuring with clothing
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2006;0(01):-
Objective To investigate the effect of blood pressure when measuring with clothing. Methods Measure the blood pressure of the right upper limb by using two different methods among the same group, and then analyze the data. Results Both SBp and DBp values which have measured with clothing are significant higher than those which have measured without clothing. The average difference of SBp and DBp are 1.54 mm Hg and 1.01 mm Hg respectively. Conclusion The patients who have no abnormal Bp history can be measured Bp with clothing, while this method should be forbidden to the patients who have hypertension or hypotension history.

Objective To investigate healthcare-associated infection(HAI)prevalence and antimicrobial use in a hospital.Methods HAI prevalence rate,antimicrobial use and pathogen detection in all inpatients on August 21 , 2013 were investigated with cross-sectional survey method.Results A total of 2 238 inpatients were investigated, 104 patients developed 126 times of HAI,HAI prevalence rate and case rate was 4.65% and 5.63% respectively;the top four sites for HAI were lower respiratory tract (28.57%),upper respiratory tract(18.25%),urinary tract (7.94%)and gastrointestinal tract(4.76%).Rate of specimens delivered for detection was 91 .35%(95/104),the main specimen was sputum (26.32%),followed by blood (25.26%)and urine (10.53%).Antimicrobial usage rate was 24.58%,therapeutic,prophylactic plus therapeutic,and prophylactic use accounted for 36.55%,45.09%, and 18.36% respectively;the usage rate of single,combination of 2,and 3 antimicrobial agents accounted for 75.82%,20.91 % and 3.27% respectively.Risk factors of HAI were age (<15 or >60 years),all kinds of inva-sive procedures (tracheotomy,mechanical ventilation,urinary catheterization,arteriovenous intubation,hemodialy-sis),and anti-tumor chemotherapy.Conclusion Survey on HIA prevalence helps to know the occurrence of HAI and usage of antimicrobial agents,as well as risk factors and high-risk departments of the occurrence of HAI,it also provides basis for subsequent targeted monitor on HAI.

Objective To detect bacterial content on surface of mobile phones of health care workers (HCWs)by adenosine triphosphate (ATP )bioluminescence assay.Methods HCWs in departments of internal medicine,surgery, medical laboratory,and administration were randomly selected,50 in each department,field detection on bacterial content on surface of mobile phones of HCWs was conducted,the relevant data were recorded.Results A total of 200 mobile phones were detected,33 mobile phone surface were qualified,the qualified rate was 16.50%.Qualified rate of mobile phone surface of HCWs in different departments as well as mobile phone disinfected by different modes were different(χ2 =13.46,10.24,respectively,both P <0.01);difference in qualified rate of mobile phones of different types,different service life,and different protective case were all not significant (χ2 =4.37,1 .87,0.25 respectively,all P >0.05).Conclusion The qualified rate of bacterial content on surface of HCWs’mobile phone is low,the awareness of hand hygiene of HCWs should be strengthened,regular cleaning and disinfection on the mo-bile phone can effectively reduce bacteria on the mobile phone surface.

Objective To explore whether augmentation index is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease or not,and the relationship between augmentation index and coronary artery disease severity.Methods In the study,245 subjects who were hospitalized between Dec.2003 and Dec.2004,were classified into 4 groups and their clinical and biological characteristics and the summary of the scores in each of the eight segment and aortic pressure waveform in ascending aorta were recorded respectively.Results The larger the augmentation index was,the more the number of coronary stenosis vessels was.Linear regression analysis indicated that augmentation index was significantly correlated with grade of coronary stenosis.When augmentation index was more than 45%,the sensibility and specificity was 91.5%and 92.6%respectively.In the logistic regression model,augmentation index was the independent risk factor for coronary heart disease,and the odds ratio of coronary heart disease was 1.893.The 95%CI was 1.421~2.521.Conclusion Augmentation index is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease and a predictor of angiographic coronary artery disease severity.
