Human fetal esophageal epithelial tissue were cultured in vitro and treatedwith mycotoxins of Alternaria alternata (AME or AOH) for 4 h. The genomic DNAwere extracted from these tissues. Genomic DNA was isolated from normal human fetalesophageal epithelium (as blank control), DNA from malignant tissue and its adjacentnormal mucosa was obtained from esophagectomy patients. DNA was amplified with PCRreaction, using genomic DNA as templet. The PCR products was a 104bp fragment from which the 12 codon of c-Ha-ras gene was contained. The excition point of restriction en-zyme Hpe Ⅱ was located in this fragment. The PCR amplified 104bp fragment was diges-ted by Hpa Ⅱ and analysed by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results showed that the104bp fragment amplified from genomic DNA of blank control and esophagectomy patientcould be digested by Hpa Ⅱ ; but that from genomic DNA of human fetal esophagealepithelium treated by AME or AOH could not. These results indicated that a mutationhad taken place at 12-codon of c-Ha-ras gene after it was treated by AME, AOH for ashort time. The mutation of Ha-ras gene might be the early event during esophageal car-cinogenesis. The effect of AME and AOH during the onset of esophageal cancer and themolecular machanisms of the effect were worth of further study.

Hyperthermia is a means of adjuvant therapy, which have a sensitizing effect to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In recent years, the molecular biology, cell and animal experimental research of tumor thermochemotherapy progressed very quickly, which provide theoretical foundation and guidance for us to further develop hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy in clinical trials. In this paper, the studies with the mechanism of thermo-chemotherapy treatment of tumor, different ways of thermochemotherapy and commonly used drugs in thermochemotherapy are reviewed.

OBJECTIVETo study the over-expression of mutant p53 protein in non-mucinous adenocarcinoma in-situ (NMAIS) and invasive adenocarcinoma, NOS of lung.

METHODSImmunohistochemical study for p53 protein was performed on 17 cases of NMAIS and 70 cases of invasive adenocarcinoma, NOS of lung. The difference in p53 over-expression between the two tumor subtypes was analyzed.

RESULTSThe over-expression of mutant p53 protein was observed in 0 case (0%) of NMAIS and 37 cases (52.9%) of invasive adenocarcinoma, NOS of lung. The difference was of statistical significance (P = 0.000).

CONCLUSIONMutant p53 protein over-expression may play a role in the progression of NMAIS to invasive adenocarcinoma, NOS.

Purpose: : This study aimed to identify the factors influencing physical restraint-related practice among nurses working in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: : The participants consisted of 169 ICU nurses in three general hospitals in B and U cities. Data were collected from December 2021 to January 2022 through a structured selfadministered questionnaire. Demographic characteristics, physical restraint-related practice, Person-centered Critical Care Nursing (PCCN), work environment, and attitudes toward physical restraint use were measured. For data analyses, hierarchical multiple regressions were conducted using SPSS/WIN 25.0. Results: : Clinical careers in the ICU, better work environments, higher PCCN levels, and more positive attitudes toward physical restraint use were associated with a better practice of physical restraints, which together explained 35.5% of the total variance of the outcome. Conclusion : Our findings suggest that to promote a safe physical restraintrelated practice among ICU nurses, it is important to improve the nursing environment, prepare guidelines for applying PCCN, and provide education for endorsing positive attitudes toward the use of physical restraints.

Recombinant human endostatin (Endostar) is a broad spectrum molecular targeted drug on anti-angiogenesis that the main evidence-based data is combined chemotherapy treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).In recent years,the researches of recombinant human endostatin used in the treatment of various malignant tumors are on the increase and achieve good effect.In addition,the researches about combined treatment methods,routes of administration,methods of medication are carried out gradually,which will be conducive to the reasonable application in clinical.
