Objective To explore the relationship among the sense of coherence,empowerment and self-efficacy in peritoneal dialysis patients.Methods General information,the Sense of Coherence Scale,the Peritoneal Dialysis Empowerent Scale-Short Form and the Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease Scale were used to investigate a total of 160 peritoneal dialysis patients in a third-class hospital in Tianjin from March to June,2015.Results The mean score of the sense of coherence,empowerment,self-efficacy were (62.01±11.94) points,(4.09±0.68) points and (6.08±2.19) points.Both the sense of coherence and empowerment could positively influence the self-efficacy of peritoneal dialysis patients directly (r=0.429-0.571,P < 0.01),and the sense of coherence could also indirectly influence the self-efficacy through the mediation of empowerment (β decreased from 0.429 to 0.172,P < 0.01),the mediation effect accounted for 60.1% of the total effect.Conclusions Medical staff should take different actions to improve the sense of coherence and empowerment to improve the self-efficacy of peritoneal dialysis patients.

This article was aimed to study the factors associated with sleep quality of anger-out and anger-in population based on the frequent pattern-tree (FP-Tree) growing algorithm with data mining. The algorithm of structuring frequent model FP-tree and mining frequent itemsets were designed. The database information scanned was recorded by using FP-Tree growing algorithm through state-trees. The frequent itemsets met minimum support required was generated through reducing the search space of project sets and scanning database only one. The data mining of all factors associated with emotional diseases was actualized. The results showed that factors associated with sleep quality of anger-out and anger-in population were disturbance in respiration, cough or snoring, feeling cold, hot or nightmares. The total time for program analysis was 2 seconds. It was concluded that data mining algorithm based on FP-Tree frequent itemsets can effectively realize the useful information receiving from factors associated with emotional diseases.

Objective To study the influence of carboxymethyl-chitosan (CM-chitosan) on phenotype and proliferation of chondrocytes stimulated by recombinant human interleukin-1? (rhIL-1?), and explore its mechanism. Methods Chondrocytes were isolated and cultured. 10 ng/ml IL-1? with or without CM-chitosan of varied concentrations were added into the culture medium. After 24 h, changes of proliferative ability of chondrocytes were tested by MTT and flow cytometry. Proteoglycan synthesis was measured by incorporation of Na235SO4 into chondrocytes, nitric oxide (NO) production was detected by Greiss reaction, mRNA expression of typeⅠ、Ⅱcollagens, Aggrecan and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) were examined by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results CM-chitosan could significantly antagonize IL-1?-induced inhibitory effect on proliferation of chondrocytes, restore proteoglycan synthesis of chondrocytes, decrease NO production of IL-1?-induced chondrocytes, increase the mRNA expression of typeⅡcollagen and Aggrecan, but decrease the expression of typeⅠcollagen and iNOS. The effects of CM-chitosan were in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion CM-chitosan can maintain the proliferation and phenotype of IL-1?-induced chondrocytes.

BACKGROUND: Talomerase activity inhibitor inhibits or kills renal carcinoma cells, and also affects stem cells that play importan roles in occurrence and development of renal carcinoma.OBJECTIVE: To observe renal carcinoma stem cell surface marker CD133 and telomerase activity expression in serum-free suspension culture, and to compare with renal carcinoma cells in serum suspension culture.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The in vitro cytological study was performed at the Jiangsu University from June 2008 to Februar 2009.WIATERIALS: Fresh normal renal tissue surrounding renal carcinoma was obtained from Affiliated Hospital, Jiangsu University.Renal carcinoma stem cell line OS-RC-2 was supplied by Cell Bank, Chinese Academy of Sciences Shanghai Branch.METHODS: OS-RC-2 in logarithmic phase, digested by trypsin, and centrifuged. Supematant was removed. OS-RC-2 cell line in serum-free DMEM/F12 supplemented with epidermal growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor was incubated at 2×105/L in 5% CO2 incubator at 37℃. Renal carcinoma cultured in serum and normal renal tissue served as controls.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cell growth was observed under an inverted microscope. Expression of CD133 and CD34 was detected using flow cytometry. Reel-time quantitative TRAP assay was applied to evaluate telomerase activity in renal carcinoma stem cells.RESULTS: After incubated in serum-free medium, renal carcinoma stem cells were round and suspended. Two days later, cell mass generated. Each cell mass contained 3-8 cells, with strong refraction. Seven days later, cell mass became more, presented big body that was regular, round or elliptical. CD133+CD34- rate in renal carcinoma stern cell mass was significantly greater in serum-free suspension culture compared with in serum suspension culture. CD133 and CD34 expression was not determined in normal renal tissue. There were significant differences among groups (F=328.25, P < 0.05). Telomerase activity was greater in renal carcinoma stem cells and renal carcinoma cells compared with normal renal ceils (F=-278.74, P < 0.05). No significant difference was detected between renal carcinoma stem cells and renal carcinoma cells.CONCLUSION: Compared with serum cultured renal carcinoma cells, serum-free cultured renal carcinoma cell surface marker CD133 presents high expression. Moreover, talomerase activity is high in renal carcinoma stem cells and renal carcinoma cells compared with normal renal tissue.

Objective To investigate the coagulation disorder status of patients with pancreatic cancer and to explore its role in tumor formation,progression and metastasis.Method The present study involved 114 patients with pancreatic cancer diagnosed by surgery or biopsy,and 40 healthy volunteers.For each individual,nine plasma coagulation parameters were tested using the STAGO Compact automated.Results The levels of plasma antithrombin Ⅲ (AT-Ⅲ) and protein C of the pancreatic cancer group were significantly reduced compared with the control group,while the levels of plasma PT,APTT,INR,FIB,F-Ⅷ,D-dimer (D-D) were significantly elevated.The level of plasma D-D increased with increase in clinical stage,while the level of AT-Ⅲ decreased.The level of plasma D-D became higher with worsening in histological grade.Conclusions Patients with pancreatic cancer were in a state of hypercoagulation,with reduced anticoagulation function and secondary hyperfibrinolysis.The level of Plasma D-D was significantly associated with the clinical stage,histological grade and distant metastasis.These together with AT-Ⅲ could be used as indicators to monitor patients with pancreatic cancer.

Objective To study efficacy and safety of large dose of pamidronate disodium in treatment for patients with painful bone metastasis of prostate cancer. Methods A total of 100 patients with painful bone metastasis of prostate cancer were randomized into large dose group and conventional dose group, with 50 cases each. Pamidronate disodium was administered by intravenous infusion, 90 mg on the first day and 60 mg on the second day for large dose group, and 60 mg on the first day and 30 mg on the second day for conventional dose group, respectively, every 4 weeks for two courses. Changes of pain,mobility, quality of life and adverse effect in patients before and after treatment were observed. Results After treatment, pain was relieved in 43 of 50 patients ( 86% ) in large dose group, significantly more than that in conventional dose group (21/50, 42% ) (χ2 = 22.79, P < 0. 01 ). Both mobility and quality of life were improved in 39 and 33 patients ( 87% and 66% ), respectively in large dose group and 21 and 18 (46% and 36% ), respectively in conventional dose group (χ2 = 17.04 and 9. 00, P <0. 01 ). No severe adverse effect in both groups was observed. Conclusions Pain in patients with bone metastasis of prostate cancer can be significantly relieved with large dose of pamidronate disodium, as well as their quality of life improved.
