6.Study on the inhibitory effect of miR-199b on colorectal cancer metastasis
Journal of Chinese Physician 2015;17(2):208-211
Objective To investigate the expression of miR-199b in colorectal cancer and the effect of miR-199b on metastasis of colorectal cancer.Methods The expression of miR-199b in colorectal cancer was assessed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).The miR-199boverexpressed human colon tumor-116 (HCT-116) stable cell lines was constructed by lentivirus assay.The effects of miR-199b on the migration and invasion of colorectal cancer were confirmed by Transwell assay.Bioinformatics,luciferase reporter assay,and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were performed to verify the potential target genes of miR-199b.Results miR-199b was at lower level in cancerous tissues comparing to the corresponding noncancerous tissues.Up-regulation of miR-199b significantly blocked the migration and invasion of colorectal cancer cells.Co-transfection of miR-199b and VEGFA wild type (WT)3'untranslated region (3'UTR) could inhibit the luciferase activity,while there was no significant difference when co-transfection with mutant (MT) 3'UTR.The protein level of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) after overexpression of miR-199b was repressed,which was validated by ELISA.Conclusions miR-199b was a new colorectal cancer suppressor miRNA,which inhibited tumor migration and invasion by negatively regulating VEGF.
7.Patient satisfaction following hospital-community continuity medical care in day surgery unit
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2014;30(13):10-13
Objective To identify the patient satisfaction on follow-up service from the community health service (CHS) or West China hospital (WCH) and to compare the patient satisfaction on follow-up service from CHS and WCH.Methods A cross-sectional survey was used in this study to identify the patient satisfaction on day surgery.The questionnaires were self-made through literature review.Purposive sampling was used in collecting the data.Results Totally 758 qualified questionnaires were collected.The proportions of qualified questionnaires were 96.3%.Respectively,79.3% of patients were completely satisfied with follow-up service from WCH,19.3% of patients were partly satisfied,and 1.4% of patients were completely dissatisfied.66.7% of patients were completely satisfied with follow-up service from CHS,33.3% of patients were partly satisfied with follow-up service from CHS,and no objects were completely dissatisfied.Conclusions Patient satisfaction on follow-up services from WCH was higher than CHS.It is essential to enhance follow-up services from CHS.
8.Correlation between the Rorschach inkblot method and 16 personality factor questionnaire
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2006;10(42):191-193
AIM:To investigate the validity of Rorschach inkblot method (RIM) in personality research by calculating the correlation of RIM with 16 personality factor questionnaire (16 PF).METHODS: Totally 70 undergraduates participated in the examination with RIM and 16 PF, then the correlations of all the variables of two measuring techniques were calculated. Standard score of comprehensive system was used in RIM.RESULTS: Some important Rorschach variables were correlated significantly with 16PF factors, and the correlations are consistent with their meaning. Some variables correlated with 16PF factors but were irrelevant in meaning.CONCLUSION: The results support the validity of RIM in personality study, and they also demonstrate that comprehensive system cannot well annotate RIM, but the meaning of some variables should be further researched.
9.Research progress on molecular pathology of cholangiocarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2011;17(2):171-174
The early diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma is difficult, and the prognosis is poor. The molecular mechanisms underlying the development, growth and metastatic spread of biliary tract cancers are still unclear. The increase in worldwide incidence and mortality of cholangiocarcinoma justifies the impellent need to clarify the intracellular mechanisms triggering the malignant transformation of the biliary epithelium and growth of biliary malignancies. A more complete characterization of the molecular pathology of bile duct cancers could lead to the identification of valid targets for diagnosis and therapy of these devastating malignancies. This review describes the scientific progress made over the past years with regard to the understanding of the molecular processes of cholangiocarcinogenesis.
10.Two regimes of transient intensive insulin therapy in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients
Chinese Journal of General Practitioners 2008;7(2):86-89
Objective To evaluate two regimes of transient intensive insulin therapy in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients with severe hyperglycemia.Methods Sixty-eight newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients with fasting plasma glucose(FPG)≥10.0 mmol/L and glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)≥8.0%were randomized to either cantinuous subcutaneous insulin infusion(CSII)group or multiple daily injection(MDI)group.Glycemic control,daily dose of insulin,body mass index(BMI),the mean area under the insulin curve(AUC),β-cell function(HOMA-β)and insulin resistence(HOMA-IR) were compared before and after treatment.Results There were no significant differences between two groups in days reaching glycemic control and BMI.The maximal insulin dose for glycemic control in CSII group was(0.53±0.06)U·kg-1·d-1 and that in MDI group was(0.71±0.04)U·kg-1·d-1(t= 11.100,P<0.01).After CSII and MDI treatment,HOMA-β and the mean AUC of insulin were significantly increased(P<0.01),but there was no significant difference between two groups(P>0.05).No significant changes in HOMA-IR were observed before and after treatment or between two groups.There were no severe hypoglycemic episodes in two groups and mild hypoglycemic episodes were 0.34%(13/3806)in CSII group and 1.09%(44/4045)in MDI group.Conclusions The excellent glycemic control can be reached by short.terra CSII and MDI treatment in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients with severe hyperglycemia.Lower insulin dose and less mild hypoglycemic episodes seem to be the advantage of CSII regime than MDI regime.β-cell function can be dramatically improved in both therapy regimes.
