1.Upper limb exercise and breast cancer related lymphedema
Journal of International Oncology 2013;(1):36-39
Breast cancer related lymphedema is the accumulation of interstitial fluid due to the lymphatic fluid load exceeds its transport ability as a consequence of the lesion of lymphatic structure.It mainly presents as swelling of the affected limb,a feeling of heaviness or tightness in the limb,aching and restricted limb motion.Its incidence is related to surgery,chemical therapy,obesity,hypertention as well as the alteration of particular genes.To prevent the occurrence and exacerbation of lymphedema,patients should avoid the overuse of the affected limb.While limb exercise step by step can solve part of this problem,but not all,doctor should also take both the patterns of exercise and risk factors that patients expose into consideration,then make a individualized exercise plan,evaluate the condition precisely,in order to achieve the best treatment purposes.

Objective To determine the clinical value of the multi-slice spiral CT virtual endoscopy (CTVE) for the detection of biliary pancreatic junction lesions. Method MSCT and virtual endoscopic reconstruction were performed in 30 healthy volunteers, 18 cases of common bile duct stones and 7 cases of ampullary carcinoma to observe patterns of duodenal papilla and measure its size.Results Reconstructed image of CTVE showed that the normal duodenal papilla was nodular in 16,shaped like "V" in 8 "Y-shaped" in 6 of the healthy volunteers. Its diameter was (0.84±0.17)cm. In the patients with common bile duct stones, it was nodular and its diameter (1.72±0.32)cm. In the patients with ampullary cancer, it was of irregular protruded type and its diameter (2.30±0.85)cm.There was significant difference among the 3 groups in the overall mean values (P<0.01). Conclusion CTVE is a convenient, non-invasive and precise clinical examination to observe the shape of duodenal papilla and determine its size.

Objective To investigate the relationships between occupational coping self-efficacy, job stress and core competence of nurses. Methods A total of 493 registered nurses were recruited in the survey with the Chinese nurse job stressors scale, occupational coping self-efficacy scale for nurses and competency inventory for registered nurse (CIRN). The correlations were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. Results The total scores on occupational coping self-efficacy, job stress of nurses and core competence of nurses were (31.94 ± 6.39), (90.29 ± 17.41) and (159.93 ± 34.31), respectively. Nurses′occupational coping self-efficacy negatively correlated with (r=-0.267, P<0.01) and positively correlated with the core competence of nurses (r=0.355, P<0.01). Conclusions The occupational coping self-efficacy of the nurses can be improved by successful experiencing, verbal persuasion and positive feedback. In this way, nurses core competence can be enhanced and their job stress can be relieved and consequently the quality of nursing can be enhanced.

Objective To investigate the effect of triptolide (TP) on proliferation and apoptosis of cyst-lining epithelial cells with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease ( ADPKD). Methods Primary cultured cyst-lining epithelial cells were treated with TP at different concentrations for 12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h, respectively.The proliferation activity of the cells was evaluated by Brdu assay. The cell cycle distribution was determined by flow cytometry. The apoptotic and apoptotic ratio were determined by FITC-AnnexinV binding/ PI. The morphological changes of cyst-lining epithelial cells were observed under transmission electron microscope. Results TP significantly inhibited the proliferation of cyst-lining epithelial cells and induced apoptosis in a dose- (10-40 ng?mL-1 )and time-dependent(12-48 h) manner. Typical ultrastructural changes of apoptotic cells were observed under electron microscope. Conclusion TP significantly inhibited the proliferation of cyst-lining epithelial cells and induced the apoptosis of cyst-lining epithelial cells, thus inhibited cyst forming and delayed cyst developing. The mechanism may involve several targets and pathways.
