Methods One hundred and twenty one nurses newly recruited in September 2011 to September 2012 were set as the control group, another 128 in October 2012 to October 2013 were set as the experiment group. The former were trained and assessed with traditional training method and the latter were trained for 1 year in video-based teaching methodology. After training, both groups were examined about their operation skills and meanwhile a survey on video-based teaching was conducted. Result After training, the results in operating skills evaluation in the experiment group were significantly better those of the control group (Z=2.82, P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with traditional training method, the video-based teaching can raise the level of nursing operation skills and significantly improve the quality of nursing, thus worthy of popularization and application.

Objective To improve the classroom environment and students' learning effect and in-novation of classroom teaching mode. Method We took stomatology students of Grade 2012 (control group, 60 people) and Grade 2013 (experimental group, 69 people) as research subjects, and in the control group, the traditional teaching method was used, while the experimental group was based on the mixed mode of the flipped classroom. By comparison of the result of questionnaire survey and final examination between the experimental group and control group, we made clear the difference between blended classroom teaching and traditional classroom teaching. SPSS 16.0 was used for statistical analysis and the data was made t test and rank sum test, and the result was showed by rate and (x±s). Result The classroom performance of the control group was (14.78±4.27), and the experimental result was (14.49±4.49), in the experimental group, the internal and external performance of the experimental group was (22.19±7.21), the experimental result was (7.12±1.33). By comparison of the result of examination between the experimental group (49.01±7.28) and control group (46.32 ±7.44), medical immunology test scores were significantly different (P<0.05), and the experimental group was better than the control group. It showed that the mixed teaching model had more advantages in improving the academic performance. The results of questionnaire survey showed that flipped classroom teaching was better than traditional classroom teaching in ability training which included self learning ability (68.18%, 45 people), analysis and problem solving skills (68.18%, 45 people), team work and communication skills (56.06%, 37 people), ability of retain knowledge (46.97%, 31 people), however students who liked and accepted this new teaching model only accounted for about 30.00%. Conclusion Inte-gration of flipped classroom mode with traditional mode will enhance the students' learning efficiency and achievements, as well as promote students' ability.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of the therapy mainly for strengthening healthy energy to promote blood circulation in treating diabetic patients with gangrene. METHODS: A series of 112 diabetic patients with gangrene were investigated before and after treatment in the changes of wounds, clinical symptoms and quality of life. RESULTS: Fifty-eight cases were cured, 12 cases showed response, 36 cases improved, and 6 cases failure of treatment. The total obvious effect rate was 62.5% (70/112) and the amputation rate was 8.9% (10/112). The 104 diabetic cases of three-stage gangrene were classified into grade I, II and III. The total effect rates of the diabetic cases of grade I, II and III were 83.3% (30/36), 55.6% (35/63) and 20% (1/5), and the amputation rates were 0%, 12.7% (8/63), and 40% (2/5) respectively. After the treatment, the clinical symptoms, gangrene number, gangrene area and gangrene depth were obviously improved (P<0.05), and the quality of life was obviously improved (P<0.01), especially in physical condition, emotional well-being and therapeutic effects on patients (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Strengthening healthy energy to promote blood circulation is effective in treating diabetic patients with gangrene.

Objective As important transcription factors, SOX2, TWIST and SNAIL are closely related to breast cancer me?tastasis. The aim of this study was to explore the expressions of SOX2, TWIST and SNAIL in breast cancer and the relationship between the three factors. Methods We collected 74 specimens of breast cancer and another 74 from paired normal tissue from January 2012 to January 2013. Using immunohistochemistry, we determined and compared the expression of SOX2 in the breast cancer and normal tissues. We also detected the expressions of TWIST and SNAIL proteins and analyzed the relationship of SOX2, TWIST and SNAIL ex?pressions with the clinicopathological characteristics of breast cancer as well as the correlation between the three proteins. Results The expression of SOX2 was significantly higher in the breast cancer than in the normal tissues (25.7% vs 8.1%, P=0.004) and corre?lated with the grade, lymph node metastasis, and TNM stage of breast cancer ( P<0.05) , while the expressions of TWIST and SNAIL were significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis and clinical TNM stages of the malignancy ( P<0.05) . The protein expression of TWIST was correlated positively with those of SOX2 ( Cc=0. 325, P<0.005) and SNAIL (Cc=0.308, P<0.008), and so was that of SNAIL with that of SOX2 (Cc=0.275, P<0.018). Conclusion The SOX2 protein is highly expressed in breast cancer. The expres?sions of SOX2, TWIST and SNAIL are closely related to lymph node metastasis of the malignancy and the three factors are interacted coor?dinatively in the metastasis of breast cancer.

Objective To explore the microsurgical technique and clinical value of endoscope-assisted microsurgery via the transsphe-noidal approach to the clivus. Methods According to the results of microanatomy of endoscope-assisted via the transsphenoidal approach to sellar and clival area, the clinical data of 12 cases (8 with invasive pituitary adenoma, 3 with chordoma, 1 with chondroma) treated by transsphenoidal approach were studied retrospectively. All cases were followed-up 3 months to 6 years after operation. Results The tumor was totally removed in 8 patients, removed subtotally in 3 patients, and removed partially in 1 patient. 6 patients occurred transient diabetes insipidus, 2 patients with transient cerebrospinal rhinorrhoea. There were no death or intracranial infection. Postoperative follow-up was performed for 3 months to 6 years, No recurrence occurred except for enlargement of 1 chordoma. Conclusion Transsphenoidal approach satisfactorily and quickly reaches and helps remove the larger tumors in sellar and clival area without severe complication. It has the advantages of low incidence of surgical complication and high total removal rate. Endoscope-assisted may be helpful for this approach.

Objective:To compare the difference between 20 cases of subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTL) and 19 cases of cutaneous extra-nodal nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma (cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphoma). Methods:The two types of lymphoma were compared in clinical pathology, immunological marker, Epstein-Barr (EB) virus infection, and T-cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangement. Results:Differentiated diagnosis of the two types of lymphomas was not easy based on their clinical manifestations,but the cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphoma was always followed by extracutaneous dissemination and had a poor prognosis. Histopathologically, SPTL was usually limited in subcutaneous fatty tissues while the cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphoma showed diffused infiltration around the dermis and it often infiltrated into the subcutaneous fat tissues. Coagulation necrosis, angiocentric infiltration and epidermotropism were often observed in cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphoma. When compared with immunophenotypes, SPTL often expressed βF1, membrane CD3 and CD8 but did not express CD4 and CD56, while most of the cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphomas expressed CD56 and cytoplasm CD3ε and only a few cases expressed CD3 and CD8. The differences in the expression of CD56, CD3, CD8, and βF1 were significant between the two types of lymphomas(P<0.05). The positive rate of EBER1/2 was 25% (5/20) in SPTL while it was 100% in cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphoma. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Monoclonal TCR-γ gene rearrangement was found in 16 out of 20 cases of SPTL (80%) but only in 4 of 18 cases in the cutaneous NK/T-cell lymphoma (22.2%). The difference was significant(P<0.05). Conclusion:The key points to distinguish the two lymphomas are (1) extracutaneous dissemination, coagulation necrosis, angiocentric infiltration and epidermotropism; (2) the expressions of CD56, CD3, CD3ε, CD8, and βF1; (3) the positivity of in situ hybridization of EB virus; (4) detection of the monoclonal TCR-γ gene rearrangement. To make an acute differentiated diagnosis of the two lymphomas, comprehensive analysis is necessary to integrate the results of clinical manifestation, histopathology, immunophenotype, infection of EB virus and gene rearrangement.
