Objective To study the effect of nasal decontamination on clinical index of elderly patients with long -term indwelling nasogastric tube.Methods 89 elderly patients with long -term indwelling nasogastric tube were randomly divided into nasal decontamination group and routine treatment group.The sputum culture positive rate of bacterial and the incidence of pulmonary complications,pharyngitis,sinusitis of the two groups were observed. Results Sputum Staphylococcus aureus positive rates in the nasal decontamination group and conventional group were 13.043% (6 cases)and 39.535% (17 cases)respectively,the difference was significant(χ2 =8.139,P =0.004).The incidence rates of pulmonary infection in the nasal decontamination group and conventional group were 4.348% (2 cases)and 18.605% (8 cases)respectively,the difference was significant(χ2 =4.529,P =0.033). The incidence rates of pharyngitis in the nasal decontamination group and conventional group were 10.870%(5 cases)and 37.209% (16 cases) respectively,the difference was significant (χ2 =8.553,P =0.003 ). Conclusion Nasal decontamination can decrease the positive rate of sputum bacterial culture,the incidence of pulmonary infection and pharyngitis in elderly patients with long -term indwelling nasogastric tube.For its efficacy and safety,it deserves clinical application.

Objective To analyze the biological characteristics and morphologic features between the mouse models using MDA-MB-231 cells established by injecting tumor cell suspension or implanting tumor tissues. Methods Twenty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into two groups,with 10 in each group.The orthotopic models of breast cancer were established by injection of tumor cell suspension or implantation of tumor tissues in the fat pad of right second breast in the nude mice of the two groups,respectively.The time of tumor formation,success rate,tumor growth rate,shape,central tumor necrosis,blood vessel distribution and tumor ulceration were compared between the two groups of models.The histological features of the tumors were also observed. Results There were no significant difference in the success rate between the two methods.In the group of tumor tissues implantation,the tumors formed in an earlier time with various shape configurations,and they were hypovascular and vulnerable to central necrosis with the resultant superficial ulcerations.However,in the group with injection of tumor cell suspension,the tumors formed later with a regular shape,and the superficial ulceration was rare and not vulnerable to central tumoral necrosis since the tumors were abundant in blood vessels resulting in adequate nourishment.There were no significant difference in the pathological findings between the two groups. Conclusion The nude mouse models of breast cancer can be successfully established by both tumor tissues implantation and tumor cell suspension injection,with identical biological characteristics and fairly different morphological features.The investigators are well advised to choose the more appropriate one according to the purpose of the experiments.

Objective:The pathogenesis of endometriosis(EMT)was explored by detecting the relationship of progesterone receptors(PR)and apoptosis-associated factors with EMT.Methods:Immunohistochemical imaging analysis was used to quantify the expression of PR,Bcl-2 and Bax in ectopic and eutopic endometrium in patients with EMT.Results:Expressions of PR and Bcl-2 in eutopic endometrium are higher than those in ectopic endometrium(P<0.05).Expression of Bax in ectopic endometrium is higher than that in eutopic endometrium(P<0.05).There is no statistical difference of PR,Bcl-2 and Bax expression between proliferative and secretary endometrium.Conclusions:Either in proliferative or secretary phase,expressions of PR in eutopic endometrium are higher than those in ectopic endometrium,thus eutopic endometrium is more liable to proliferate in low level continuously,migrate and implant.Expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax in eutopic and ectopic endometrium have no relationship with endometrium cycling.The apoptosis of ectopic endometrium is weakened and its proliferative power is continuously enhanced.

Objective　To understand the overall under-reporting of cause of death monitoring in Hainan Province, and to provide a scientific basis for evaluating the data from death registration report and health planning in Hainan. Methods　Multi-stage cluster random sampling was used, all towns/streets in cities and counties of the province were ranked from highest to lowest in terms of crude death rate, divided into high, medium and low levels (the number of each level was basically the same), and one was randomly selected from each level. A total of three towns/streets were used as survey areas, and all households in the area were survey households. Death information of resident population during 2018-2020 was collected and compared with routine surveillance data for the same period. The under-reporting rate was calculated, and comparison between groups was performed by chi-square. Results　A total of 12 583 death cases were investigated from 2018 to 2020, and the average mortality was 621.48/105. 4 809 cases were missed with the total under-reporting rate of 38.22%. The under-reporting rate from 2018 to 2020 were 39.75%, 39.99% and 34.77% (χ2=30.404, P<0.01) respectively. The under-reporting rate in eastern and central and western areas were 30.33%, 30.10% and 60.15% (χ2=931.901, P<0.01) respectively. The negative rate were different in different years old group (χ2=14.834, P<0.05). Of the 4 809 under-reported cases, as many as 93.49% died at home, and the composition of deaths in hospitals was about 10 times higher in the center than in the east and west, and the proportion of those who died in hospital in central areas was about 10 times higher than in eastern and central areas. Conclusions　More than half of the cities and counties in Hainan Province have improved the completeness of cause of death surveillance data. The under-reporting rate in age group <5 years are still high, and regular under-reporting investigations are still needed to strengthen the reporting and management of death information.
