Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2008;24(24):45-46
Objective To discuss the adverse effect caused by capecitabine chemotherapy and its nuning measures.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out for the adverse effect,occurrence regularity and nursing measures in 58 patients undergoing chemotherapy with capecitabine from June 2004 to December 2007.Results Handfoot syndrome happened in 30 cases,nausea and vomiting 23 cases,diarrhea 20 cases and stomatitis 15 cases in 58 patients.After positive prevention and effective nursing 57 patients successfully accomplished capecitabine chemotherapy.Only one patient withdrew due to grade 3 handfoot syndrome.Conclusions Positive prevention and eady detection and treatment can alleviate the adverse effect of capecitabine chemotherapy,so the psychological burden of patients can be relieved.

OBJECTIVE To explore the risk factors of lower respiratory tract nosocomial infection in geriatrics patients after abdominal operation and the measures of prevention and control.METHODS The medical records of the 470 cases with abdominal operation from Jan 2003 to Sep 2006 were investigated retrospectively with prospective monitoring.RESULTS Among 470 cases,119 suffered from hospital infection,62 suffered from lower respiratory tract hospital infection,the infection rate being 13.19% and occupied 52.10% of the total number of the hospital infection in the abdominal operation.CONCLUSIONS Invasive operation,such as nasogastric tube,intubation,inhaling oxygen,sputum drawing out,cannulization,tracheotomy,and use of respirator after operation,lying in bed,vomit,using proton pump inhibitors,and underlying diseases are the causes of the lower respiratory tract hospital infection.To enhance the monitoring and control of the risk factors,we can decrease the rate of lower respiratory tract infection and mortality in geriatrics patients after abdominal operation.

Using ovarian cancer cell lines, we studied relationship between C-erbB2 expression and lysis activity of lymphokine-activated killer cells (LAK) and in vitro regulation by ?-interferon (IFN-?). The results showed that C-erbB2 overexpression was associated with resistance to lysis activity of LAK in ovarian cancer; IFN-? could reduce the overexpression of C-erbB2 and increase lysis activity of LAK on ovarian cancer cells in which C-erbB2 were overexpressed.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to establish women previously undergoing cesarean section again puerperal ways.Methods170 pregnant women who had previously undergone 1 or 2 cesarean section were studied. ResultsAmong the 170 cases, 93 cases were trial of labor. The success was 81 cases, the success rate was 87%. One patient with preuterine scar ruptured. There was no maternal death. When the repeat cesarean group was compared with the trial of labor group, in the blood loss and after delivery febrile morbidity were significantly higher in women with repeat cesarean (P<0.05). The Apgar score of newborns was no difference (P>0.05). ConelusionWe should control the indications for cesarean section. A trial of labor after previous cesarean is safe, less damage and can be rceommended in the majority of cases. All eligible women would allowed to deliver vaginally after previous cesarean.

Objective To investigate the influence of PBL combined with CBS education on reporting cognition and reporting intention of adverse events.Methods Using convenience sampling method,66 registered nurses working for over 6 months were extracted as the study object.The training group was set up and the training files were established,PBL combined with CBS mode were implemented for 6 months from March to August 2013,once a month,2 hours per time.Training cases were designed and written,teaching staff was organized to carry out the training,problems were raised in class and discussed on site.Training staff looked up relevant data,collected information,organized another focused discussion and summarized the results.The Adverse Event Reporting Cognitive Questionnaire and Adverse Nursing Event Reporting Intention Questionnaire were adopted to evaluate reporting cognition and reporting intention before and after the training.Results After the implementation of PBL combined with CBS education,cognition of nurses for adverse events scored (7.23±1.20),higher than that before the intervention,(6.48±1.49),t=3.17,P < 0.01.The numbers of nurses to report adverse events such as potential vulnerabilities and not doing any harm were 42 and 45 before the intervention,while 53 and 56 after the intervention.Conclusions Using PBL combined with CBS model to implement educational interventions can improve reporting cognition and report intention on nursing adverse events of nurses.

Tumor metastasis is a primary cause of leading to death of tumor patients,and difficult to control.The relationship between primary tumor(PT)and metastasis tumor(MT)is extremely complicated. Considerable animal experiments and clinical data confirm that treatment of PT encourages the growth of MT, but the mechanism is not still fully clear.Some studies show that the density depression of antiangiogenesis factor and immune escape of tumor cell are main reasons for MT accelerated growth.This article reviews the animal experiment,clinical observation and occurrence mechanism of primary tumor treatment promoting tu- mor metastasis.

DNA repair processes play a role in the development of drug resistance which represents a huge obstacle to leukemia chemotherapy. Histone H2AX phosphorylation (ser139) (γH2AX) occurs rapidly at the onset of DNA double strand break (DSB) and is critical to the regulation of DSB repair. If DNA repair is successful, cells exposed to anti-neoplastic drugs will keep entering the cycle and develop resistance to the drugs. In this study, we investigated whether γH2AX can be used as an indicator of tumor chemosensitivity and a potential target for enhancing chemotherapy. K562 and multi-drug resistant cell line K562/A02 were exposed to adriamycin (ADR) and γH2AX formed. Flow cytometry revealed that percentage of cells expressing γH2AX was increased in a dose-dependent manner and the percentage of K562/A02 cells was lower than that of K562 cells when treated with the same concentration of ADR. In order to test the potential of γH2AX to reverse drug resistance, K562/A02 cells were treated with PI3K inhibitor LY294002. It was found that LY249002 decreased ADR-induced γH2AX expression and increased the sensitivity of K562/A02 cells to ADR. Additionally, the single-cell gel electrophoresis assay and the Western blotting showed that LY249002 enhanced DSBs and decreased the expression of repair factor BRCA1. These results illustrate chemosensitivity can partly be measured by detecting γH2AX and drug resistance can be reversed by inhibiting γH2AX.
