Objective To explore the diagnosis value of expression level of peripheral blood microRNA-21 in early gastric cancer patients. Methods In 52 patients with Tis gastric cancer and 40 healthy subjects, expression levels of microRNA-21 in peripheral blood were quantitatively detected by real-time quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR),and diagnostic value of expression level of microRNA-21 in peripheral blood were evaluated by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Results Relative quantity expression level of microRNA-21 in peripheral blood in gastric cancer group and healthy subjects group were 2.286±0.592 and 1.318±0.357, and there was statistical significance (U=136.500, P=0.000). ROC curve analysis showed that ROC curve area of expression level of microRNA-21 in peripheral blood in diagnosing gastric cancer was 0.934(95%CI 0.887-0.982, P=0.000), and the best diagnostic boundary point value was 1.912. The sensitivity of expression level of microRNA-21 in peripheral blood in diagnosing gastric cancer was 86.5%, and the specificity was 95.0%. Conclusion Expression level of microRNA-21 in peripheral blood has important diagnostic value in early gastric cancer.

Menopause is inevitable physiological process of women in the process,per-imenopause syndrome is a common physical and mental diseases in middle-aged women. However,most of the middle-aged women lack health knowledge and are prone to depression,anxiety, paranoia,and other psychological problems. This has seriously affected daily lives and work. Nurses should give perimenopausal syndrome patients mental health different care and education.

Objective: To explore the pathogenesis of oral lichen planus (OLP) by examining the expressions of hypoxia-inducible factor-la and RTP801 in OLP. Methods: To determine the expression levels of HIF-la and RTP801 in 24 OLP tissues and 12 normal oral mucosa tissues by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results; The expression of HIF-1α in OLP was higher than that in normal oral mucosa(P <0.05), while the expression of RTP801 in OLP was lower than that in normal oral mucosa( P <0.05). Conclusion; The abnormal expressions of HIF-la and RTP801 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of oral lichen planus. HIF-1α might be a potential molecular target for the treatment of OLP.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) in combination with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) for stage Ⅱ primary liver cancer. Methods Eighty-one patients were retrospectively analyzed, including 36 received 3DCRT combined with TACE (Group A) and 45 received TACE alone (Group B). The short-term therapeutic effects and 1-, 2-, 3-year survival rates, average survival time of the dead patients, and side effects were compared between the two groups. Results The follow-up rate was 100%. The numbers of patients finished 1-, 2- and 3-year follow-up were 55,19 and 6,respectively. The reponse rates were 72% in group A, and 60% in group B, which were not significant different (χ~2= 1.32, P > 0.05). The 1-, 2- and 3-year survival rates of the dead patients were 83%, 63% and 25% in group A and 75%, 37% and 8% in group B. The corresponding average survival time was 21 months and 16 months, respectively. The differences of 2- and 3-year survival rates were significant between group A and B. (χ~2= 4.87, P < 0. 05 ). The incidence and se-verity of side effects did not differ significantly between the two groups. Conclusions In patients with stage Ⅱ primary liver cancer, 3DCRT combined with TACE, being more effective than TACE alone, can prolong the long-term survival without increasing the toxicities.

Objective Recent studies show that the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is a key regulatory signal in both bone for-mation and bone remodeling .The experiment aimed to investigate the effects of inhibiting the PI 3K/Akt signaling pathway on the prolif-eration and cell cycles of MC3T3-E1 cells. Methods We treated MC3T3 -E1 cells with PF-04691502 the inhibitor of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway .Then we determined the proliferative activity of the cells by MTS assay , detected the cell cycles by flow cytometry , and measured the expression of cell cycle-related proteins by Western blot . Results After inhibition of the PI3K/Akt signaling path-way with PF-04691502 at 30, 150 and 750 nmol/L, the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells was reduced in a dose-dependent manner to 0.647 ±0.041, 0.423 ±0.011 and 0.159 ±0.004, respectively, as compared with 1 ±0.056 in the control group (P<0.01).Sim-ultaneously , the percentage of the cells in the sub-G1 phase was significantly higher in the 1 μmol/L group than in the control ([1.45 ±0.43]%vs [0.27 ±0.21]%, P<0.01) and the expression of cyclin D1 was decreased. Conclusion Inhibition of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway can block MC 3T3-E1 cells in the sub-G1 phase and reduce the proliferation of the cells .

[Objective]To explore LIU Wansu's methods in treating fire and heat disease from depression of yang qi.[Methods]To analyse LIU Wansu's understanding of fire and heat disease and highlight its treatment from depression of yang qi through reading his works like Exploration to Pathogenesis in Plain Questions,Yellow Emperor's Plain Questions on Xuanminglun Formulae and so on.[Results]LIU Wansu had profound medical knowledge,rich clinical experience and initiative spirit.Under the guidance of nineteen items of pathogenesis from Huangdi's Canon of Medicine,he expanded fire and heat disease and put up six exogenous pathogenic factors can transfer to fire theory.To be specific,excessive wind,cold,dampness and dryness would block Xuan Fu and depress yang qi,causing fire and heat disease.He regardeddepression of yang qi as a key link in six exogenous pathogenic factors' transferring to fire and put up cooling combined with ventilating method to dissipate depressed yang qi,including relieving exterior syndrome with pungent-cool drugs,clearing depressed heat,relieving exterior and interior syndrome,eliminating dampness and relieving depression as well as combination of cold and warm drugs.[Conclusion]LIU Wansu treated fire and heat disease from depression of yang qi,providing new methods in treating fire and heat disease for later generations as well as guiding significance in current clinical work.
