Tumor surface antigen human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2) is a type I receptor tyrosine kinase, which belongs to human epidermal growth factor receptor family. Her2-overexpression is associated with tumorigenesis and metastasis. Due to significant clinical effects, Her2-targeted cancer therapy especially therapeutic antibody has become the hot spot in the field of cancer treatment. Anti-Her2 antibody drugs include monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies and emerging "two in one" antibody. Based on structure and function of Her2, this review focuses on recent advances in active mechanisms and clinical researches of these antibodies.

Teacher student relationship is the most important part in educational activities.It’s quality and quantity have a significant impact on educational and teaching effectiveness.This article aims to analyze the exiting status of the relationship between the tutors and the postgraduates in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, focusing on the some main factors which affect the said relationship, including education environment factor, tutor factor, postgrad-uate factor and etc., and combining the characteristics of Medical Colleges’studying.On the basis of the concerned survey, this article initially discusses the key issues during the establishment of the harmony relationship between tutors and postgraduates.

ObjectiveTo explore the cytogenetic characteristics of multiple myeloma (MM) patients,to evaluate the effect of a long-term culture stimulated by cytokines on cytogenetic study of MM,and to investigate the clinical detection value of RB1 and P53 deletion in interphase plasma cells by using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).MethodsKaryotype analysis was performed in 81 MM patients by using the short-term culture of bone marrow cell and G-banding technique.Among the 81 MM patients,28 patients used two culture methods:one was the short-term culture and the other was to culture cells for 6 days with recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) (40 μg/L) and IL-6 (10 μg/L).RB1 and P53 deletion were detected on interphase plasma cells by using FISH in 31 patients.ResultsAmong the 81 patients,75 had enough metaphases for analysis.Among the 75 patients,31 (41.3％)had clonal karyotypic abnormalities including 4 numeric abnormalities,11structural abnormalities and 16 both abnormalities.Among the 28 patients using two culture methods,the clonal karyotypic abnormalities were detected in 6 patients(25.0％ ) in the group of cultured for 24 hours,and 14 patients (51.9％) in 6-day culture group with a significant difference (P =0.026).RB1 deletion and P53 deletion were detected in 10 patients (32.3％ ) and 11 patients(35.5％ ),respectively,with both RB1 and P53 deletions be detected in 5 patients ( 16.1％ ).ConclusionsMore than half of the tested MM patients have both numeric and structural chromosome abnormalities.The karyotype analysis using banding technique is basic cytogenetic study.Extended culture in the presence of IL-6 and GM-CSF could improve the efficiency of cytogenetic analysis to MM.Interphase FISH is a sensitive method of clinical application significance to detect the gene deletion of MM.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the application of 18fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) to the staging and predicting outcome in patients with lymphoma.Methods 41 patients with newly diagnosed lymphoma(median age 57 years)were explored with FDG-PET prior to and after 4 cycles of chemotherapy.With a median follow-up of 30 months (range 10-68 months),the value of FDG-PET to staging and predicting clinical outcome was assessed. Results The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of nodal and extranodal lesions was 9.7±6.9 and 8.4±6.8 respectively prior to treatment.There were significant difference (P＜0.05) in aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,no significant difference(P＞0.05)in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma(HL), B-cell neoplasms and T-cell neoplasms,germinal center B-cell-like DLBCL and activated B-cell-like DLBCL. In 41 patients, 22 patients (54 ％)were detected extranodal focus by FDG-PET before chemotherapy. FDG-PET imaging upstaged in 6(15％)of initial lymphoma patients.There were 15 patients (37 ％) in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ and 26 patients(63 ％)in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ by FDC-PET scan.1 patient (7 ％) in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ,6 patient (23 ％) in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ died of disease progression during follow-up.After 4 cycles of chemotherapy,the FDG-PET was negative in 41％(17/41),positive in 59 ％(24/41) respectively.1 patient(6 ％)died of disease relapse among 17 patients who were FDG-PET negative, 6 patient (25 ％)died of disease progression among 24 patients who were FDG-PET positive during follow-up. Conclusion FDG-PET scanning plays an important role in the pretreatment staging and prediction of the prognosis after 4 cycles of chemotherapy in patients with lymphoma.Thus it may offer the potential for change in treatment paradigms.

Objective To verify the relationship between personality traits and clinical nurse competence in five third-A level hospitals in Shenyang. Methods A total of 1559 clinical nurses from five tertiary-level hospitals in Shenyang were recruited into this study. Two self-report questionnaires, the Nurse Competence Scale (NCS) and the Tridimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ), were used to collect data. Results The average score of NCS was 71.97 ± 13.25.Nursing competence increased with the increase of working years (β=0.272, P<0.01) and RD (β=0.134, P<0.01). Practicing nurses with the lower HA appear to have a higher level of competence (β=-0.117, P<0.01). Conclusions The overall level of nurses' competencies good in third-A level hospitals in Shenyang. The predicting factors of nursing competence are work experience, HA and RD. More psychological courses should be provided in fundamental nursing education and continuing nursing education for helping nurses shape their good personality traits.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effect of hypothermia combined with dexamethasone on spermatogenesis and the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1) after testicular torsion-detorsion.

METHODSWe made unilateral testicular torsion models in 100 pubertal male Sprague-Dawley rats by 720 degree torsion of the left testis and then randomly divided them into four groups of equal number to be treated with normal temperature + physiological saline (group A), hypothermia + physiological saline (group B), normal temperature + dexamethasone (group C), and hypothermia + dexamethasone (group D). After 48 hours, we collected the testes, observed pathological changes of the testicular tissue by HE staining under the light microscope, detected the apoptosis of spermatogenic cells by TUNEL, and determined the expression of ICAM1 by Western blot.

RESULTSHE staining showed different degrees of testicular tissue injury in the four groups of rats, most obvious in group A, but mild in the other three. The ICAM1 protein expression was significantly higher in group A (0.68 +/-0. 03) than in B (0. 49 +/- 0. 06, P <0. 05) , C (0. 46 +/- 0. 09, P < 0.05) , and D (0.17 +/- 0.08, P <0.01). The nuclei were deep brown or brown. Lots of apoptotic spermatogenic cells were seen in the torsion testis of group A, with a significantly higher apoptosis index ( [33. 13 +/- 3.21 ]%) than in B ( [ 17. 12 +/-5.23 ]%, P < 0.05), C ([14.13 +/- 2.03]%, P <0.05), and D ([9.05 +/- 1.03]%, P <0.01).

CONCLUSIONHypothermia combined with dexamethasone can protect the testis from injury as well as the reproductive function of the testis after testicular torsion-detorsion and reduce the expression of ICAM1.

Lack of overall evaluation on the occupational ability of students existed in the national rehabilitation therapy education.And the students faced the problems such as difficulty in relating the theory with the practice and poor practical ability during the clinical internships.Objective structured clinical examination (OSCE), an objective evaluation method, which could be used as reference, could be adopted to simulate the clinical scene to test students' clinical skills.
