Objective:Investigate the awareness of their own rights and the safeguarding of the rights in practice,raise the patients' sense of safeguarding of the rights and help them defend the legal rights.Methods:A survey was taken among patients by applying the questionnaire.Results:There are 5 items about the patients' knowledge about their own rights and 3 items about defending their rights in practice,in which more than 85 percent of 111 patients chose the answer "always or almost".From this we can see that the awareness and safeguarding of their rights are not good enough.Conclusion: The government is appealed to break up the existence of the monopoly mold in medical treatment and to take measures to protect the rights of patients.The medical personnel should renew their concepts,pay more attention to publicizing and defending patients' rights,and help patients realize their rights.

Objective To investigate whether TG2 promotes drug resistance to epirubicin through AKT signal pathway in breast cancer. Methods MCF-7 cells with constant expression of TGM2 gene(TGM2-LV)were established via the lentiviral vector. The breast cancer cells were divided into five groups,including the NC group, TG2 group and MK2206 group. The MCF-7/adr cells were divided into ADR group and MKadr group. The expres-sion of TG2 ,AKT ,Bcl-2 and P53 was detected by Western blot assay. Cells were treated with epirubicin. MTT assay was performed to assess cell proliferation. The inhibition ratio of cancer cell proliferation was evaluated. TUNEL analysis was performed to identify the apoptosis of the breast cancer cells. Results Lvels of TG2,p-AKT and Bcl-2 in NC group were significantly lower than those in TG2 group,while the expression of P53 in NC group was much higher. In MK2206(or MK/adr )group,p-AKT and Bcl-2 were down-regulated,while P53 was markedly up-regulated compared with TG2(or ADR)group(P<0.05). The results of the MTT assay showed a strong inhibi-tion in cell proliferation rate in MK2206(or MKadr )group. Compared with the NC group,TG2 promoted prolifera-tion of MCF-7 cells in TG2 group. The cell apoptosis rate in MK2206(or MKadr )group was significantly higher than that in TG2(or ADR)group(P<0.05). TG2 significantly inhibit the apoptosis of breast cancer cells ,com-pared to the control group. Conclusion TG2 might promote drug resistance to epirubicin through AKT signal path-way in breast cancer

Objective To analyze the radiographic characteristics of right hand X-ray film of adult patients with Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD) in Qinghai Province, to understand the most affected locations in adult KBD. Methods According to the criteria of KBD diagnose (WS/T 207-2010), 111 cases of patients were taken X-ray films of right hands. Joint space narrow, joint deformity, subchondral sclerosis, osteophyte, coarse and irregularity of joint, marginal retraction sign and capsule changes were chosen as the descriptive indexes, and these indexes were analyzed with SPSS 17.0. Results A total of 111 cases adult patients with KBD were examined right hand by X-ray, abnormality on X-ray film were 103 cases, the abnormal rate was 92.79%. The most affected fingers were Ⅱ- Ⅳphalanx bones, Ⅱphalanx bones accounted for about 92.23% (95/103), Ⅲ phalanx bones accounted for about 99.03% (102/103), and Ⅳ phalanx bones accounted for about 99.03% (102/103). There was significant difference of the abnormality between th e proximal phalanx and the middle phalanx among the Ⅱ - Ⅳ phalanx bones(χ2=79.33, P<0.05). Abnormal numbers of joint deformity, marginal retraction sign, coarse and irregularity of joint, osteophyte, capsule changes and joint space narrow in the proximal phalanx were 212, 7, 134, 47, 15 and 115 in Ⅱ - Ⅳ proximal phalanx, respectively; while the abnormal numbers of joint deformity, marginal retraction sign, coarse and irregularity of joint, osteophyte, capsule changes and joint space narrow in the middle phalanx were 77, 37, 137, 26, 19 and 126 in Ⅱ - Ⅳmiddle phalanx, respectively. Conclusion The Ⅱ - Ⅳ phalanx bones of right hand are the most affected locations in adult KBD.

Objective:To analyze the results of serum erythropoietin (EPO) in adults patients with Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD) in Qinghai Province.Methods:According to the "Diagnosis of Kaschin-Beck Disease" (WS/T 207-2010), by using clinical examination and X-ray, adults over 20 years old in KBD areas of Xinghai County and Guide County, Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, were divided into KBD case group ( n = 109) and internal control group ( n = 95) in July 2019. At the same time, healthy people were selected as external control group ( n = 90) in Xunhua County. Then 2 ml fasting cubital venous blood was collected from the target population to separate serum. The serum EPO level was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results:There was no significant difference in age and sex ratio among the 3 groups ( F = 0.73, P = 0.484; χ 2 = 1.03, P = 0.611). There was significant difference in serum EPO levels among the 3 groups [KBD case, internal and external control groups: (30.74 ± 26.23), (19.73 ± 11.53) and (10.83 ± 4.48) U/L, F = 26.51, P < 0.001]. Multiple comparisons showed that there were statistically significant differences in serum EPO levels between KBD case group and the internal and external control groups ( P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the internal and external control groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:The serum EPO level in adult KBD patients in Qinghai Province is increased significantly.

Objective:To understand the changes of serum interleukin (IL)-2 and IL-6 in adult patients with Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) in Qinghai Plateau, and to provide scientific basis for scientific prevention and treatment of plateau KBD.Methods:According to the "Diagnosis of Kashin-Beck Disease" (WS/T 207-2010), adult KBD patients and healthy people over 18 years old were selected as KBD group and control group, respectively, in KBD disease areas of Xinghai County and Guide County, Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. Fasting cubital venous blood was collected from the people of two groups, and the levels of serum IL-2 and IL-6 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results:A total of 193 people were surveyed, including 114 people in KBD group and 79 people in control group. There was no significant difference in age and sex ratio between the two groups ( t = 0.204, χ 2 = 2.547, P > 0.05). The serum IL-2 and IL-6 levels of the KBD group were (572.21 ± 172.92), (42.35 ± 15.86) pg/ml, respectively; compared with the control group [(511.28 ± 173.22), (51.96 ± 17.18) pg/ml], the differences were statistically significant ( t = 2.404, 3.999, P < 0.05). Conclusion:The serum IL-2 level is increased and IL-6 level is decreased in adult KBD patients in Qinghai Plateau, both of which may be involved in the inflammatory reaction of adult KBD.
