Objective To investigate the expression of nerve growth factor receptors, P75 neurotrophin receptor (P75~(NTR)) and tyrosine kinase A (TrkA), and to explore their role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods In situ hydridization and immunohistochemical technique were used respectively to detect the expression of P75~(NTH) and TrkA mRNA and proteins in lesional and non-lesional skins of 38 patients with psoriasis vulgaris (21 cases in progressive stage, 17 cases in static stage), and in normal skins of 10 healthy controls. Results In the case of expression of P75~(NTR) and TrkA mRNA and proteins, patients had significantly higher level than the normal control (P

Objective To summarize the effect and experience of nursing of patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease with atrial fibrillation treated with Cox Ⅲ labyrinth and simultaneous valve replace-ment operation. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out in the nursing of 58 patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease with atrial fibrillation treated with Cox Ⅲ labyrinth and simultaneous valve replacement operation in our hospital from April 2006 to July 2008. Results One patient died of periop-erative renal failure,one died of low cardiac output,one died of infectious endoearditis.Tbe mortality rate reached 5.2%.Other patients were discharged from hospital after completely cured.The survived patients maintained sinus rate during hospitalization days after operation and short-term follow-up after being dis-charged.Among 43 patients who completed follow-up of 6 months after operation,3 patients (7.0%) damon-strated atrial fibrillation,while others still kept sinus rate. Conclusions Attention should be paid to psy-chological nursing,respiratory tract preparation,cardiac function monitoring and nursing of anticoagulation treatment for patients treated with Cox Ⅲ labyrinth and simultaneous valve replacement operation.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a bowel disease with uncontrolled inflammation and unknown etiology.With the recent expert consensus,multidisciplinary collaborative groups focusing on IBD have been gradually built in China,and IBD is not only an internal medical disease anymore.Furthermore,the therapeutic effect of IBD has also been greatly improved,but it is still not satisfactory.Precision therapy is the future direction of treatment for IBD,meanwhile,stem cell therapy and fecal transplantation also provide the new choices for refractory IBD.

Objective To investigate the significance of the expression levels of humans telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTERT) gene in peripheral blood mononuclear cells with lung cancer patients. Methods From Mar.2002 to Feb.2005,the expression levels of hTERT were detected in 30 lung cancer patients and 15 normal humans by quantitative measurement with RT-PCR. Results The expression levels of hTERT mRNA in lung cancer patients (0.906?0.112) were significant as compared with those health controls(0.407?0.104). Conclusion It is effective to diagnose lung cancer by the quantitative measurement with RT-PCR for the expression levels of hTERT mRNA.

Purpose To investigate the expression and significance of epiderma1 growth factor receptor( EGFR)mutation-specific anti-bodies in 1ung adenocarcinoma. Methods Immunohistochemica1( IHC)technique was used to detect the expression of EGFR muta-tion-specific antibodies(EGFR-19,EGFR-21)and EGFR tota1 protein antibody(EGFR-P)in 171 cases of 1ung adenocarcinoma with resected specimens,and EGFR gene mutation was a1so performed by amp1ification refractory mutation aystem-PCR( ARMS-PCR). The expression of EGFR-19,EGFR-21 and EGFR-P mutant proteins was compared with EGFR gene mutation and their re1ationship with histo1ogica1 c1assification and c1inica1 characteristics were ana1yzed. Results The expression of EGFR mutant protein was corre1ated with the poor differentiation group inc1uding micropapi11ary and so1id predominant types( P=0. 021 ). EGFR-21 high expression was re1ated to p1eura1 invasion(P=0. 005). The coherence of IHC(with EGFR-19/21 antibodies)and ARMS-PCR was existed(Kappa>0. 4 ). Taking ARMS-PCR as a standard,the sensitivity and specificity of EGFR-19 and EGFR-21 were 65. 0% and 89. 4%, 70. 0% and 97. 6%,respective1y. Conclusions Expression of EGFR mutation-specific antibodies is associated with poor differentia-tion and p1eura1 invasion. It suggests a worse prognosis indicator in 1ung adenocarcinoma. Because of the coherence with ARMS-PCR, using IHC with mutation-specific antibodies to detect the mutant proteins of EGFR-19/21 may act as a pre1iminary screening method of EGFR gene mutation.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of web-based lifestyle Or behavior intervention on Chinese urban adults.Methods Six hundred and eighty-one adult subjects were rand omly assigned to the intervention group (n=341) or the control group (n=340).The intervention group was encouraged to visit a specified interactive web site at 1east once a month to submit self-report health diaries.and provided with individualized health promotion instructions and tailored counseling at the chat room or through email.The control group received routine medical services.The primary outcomes were changes in cigarette smoking,alcohol consumption,fruit or vegetable intake,and physical exercise duration at 6 month from baseline.Intention-to-treat method was used for data analysis.Results At 6 month,smoking cessation rate was 23.6% in intervention group and 4.6% in control group (X2=22.4,P<0.05),and daily alcohol consumption decreased by 28.6 g in intervention group compared to 6.1 g in control group (t=14.9.P<0.05).There Was no significant change in physical exercise duration for those with sub-optimal physical activities between the two groups.In contrast to the control group.mean systolic blood pressure,fasting blood glucose,and body mass index of the hypertensive,diabetic,or overweight/obese subjects in the intervention group showed statistically significant decrease.There was no significant change in serum cholesterol level for the participants with hypercholestemlemia in both groups.The attrition rate was 6.7% in the intervention group.Conclusion Web-based health management services may be helpful in promoting healthy lifestyle and behavior and enhancing the care of chronic conditions including hypertension,diabetes,overweight and obese.

Objective To determine the clinical characteristic, main treatment, and prognosis for the sake of more effective treatments for critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza. Methods Eight critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza in intensive care unit were retrospectively studied, including clinical characteristics, indexex of correlation, and prognosis. Results The acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ score was 19.0±7.8. Five patients died, 4 of whom were caused by respiratory failure. The number of platelets in dead patient was lower than that in healing and improved ones(χ2=8.000,P＜0.05).All the 4 patients treated with glucocorticoid died, 5 out of the 6 patients received invasive mechanical ventilation rather than noninvasive mechanical ventilation, and 3 of them who complicated barotraumas in the lung died at last. Conclusion Critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza have high mortality. Respiratory failure is the main cause of death. Critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza should not be treated with glucocorticoid. Patients who need mechanical ventilation should be treated with invasive mechanical ventilation with low tidal volume and low positive end-expiratory pressure.

Based on the counting results from nutrition agar in our study, and compared with another two kinds of coliform bacteria detective plates for dinner and drinking sets which were provided by two manufactures and inspected by China National Health Bureau , we accomplished the detectability test of the Huankai coliform bacteria plates. In our study, 3kinds of cell density were adopted: 10cells/mL, 50cells/mL and 100cells/mL . The results shew that the detectability of Huankai plates basically conformed with that of nutrition agar , and was no evident difference from that of another two kinds of plates. The conclusions were that Huankai plates can completely be used in the inspection and test for conform bacteria.

Human kerotinocyte growth factor (hKGF) gene amplified by PCR was inserted into the shuttle vector pAdTrack-CMV to get the recombinant plasmid pAdTrack-CMV-hKGF, which was linearized with Pme I and transferred into Escherichia coli BJ5183 containing the adenoviral bone plasmid pAdEasy-1 to obtain the recombinant adenoviral plasmid pAdEasy-hKGF. The recombinant adenoviral plasmid was then transfected into HEK-293 cell lines via Lipofectamine 2000 to package and amplify the recombinant adenovirus containing hKGF gene detected by PCR. The recombinant adenovirus produced could effectively infect HaCat cells. The result of Western blotting showed that HaCat cells infected with the recombinant adenovirus expressed and secreted hKGF protein.
