Objective To investigate and analyze the recent condition of the indoor air radon concentration in the colleges in Guangzhou and to find the source of radon in the teaching environments and to make the effective measure to reduce indoor air radon pollution. Methods The radon concentration was determined with the instantaneous and accumulate methods. The effecting factors were analyzed. Results The arithmetic average of radon concentration was about (34.2?21.17) Bq/m3. The indoor radon concentration in the newly decorated buildings was about (36.6?25.5) Bq/m3 which was higher than that in the old ones (20.1?8.48) Bq/m3. The indoor radon concentration in the night was higher than that in the daytime. In winter it was about (54.2?15.11)Bq/m3 which was higher than that (17.3?7.31) Bq/m3 in summer. Conclusion The radon concentration may change as the outside condition changes, the radon concentration in the teaching environment in Guangzhou is not over the standard limit.

Objective To explore the psychological characteristics of cancer long-term survivors.Methods One hundred and fifty one cancer long-term survivors(survival time ≥5 years) were chosen for participation from Guangzhou and Shenzhen by the coin method in this study.The qualitative data of the patients'psychological characteristics were collected by individual interviews,and the patients'behavioral and psychological characteristics were measured by the Tumor Psychological Scale(TPS),the Cancer Coping Modes Questionnaire(CCMQ) and the Psychological Adjustment Scale for Cancer Patients(PASCP).The psychological characteristics of the 151 cancer long-term survivors were compared with the average level of cancer patients (over 557 patients).Quantitive data were analyzed by two independent samples't-test.Results (1) Most cancer long-term survivors knew their diagnosis in two weeks after they were diagnosed.The cancer long-term survivors were better in mentality and got more social supports.Most long-time survivors attributed their success to good psychological well-being and positive treatments.(2) The TPS scores of cancer long-term survivors group(1.99 ± 0.45,1.68 ± 0.51,1.33 ± 0.32,1.87 ± 0.44,1.78 ± 0.41 respectively) were lower than the scores of the average level of cancer patients (3.06 ±2.12,3.08 ± 2.03,2.86 ± 2.08,3.02 ± 2.06,2.98 ± 1.75 respectively) in the dimensions of personality,emotion,unconscious,cognition and the total average score.The differences were significant statistically(P ＜ 0.01).The CCMQ scores of cancer long-term survivors group were higher than the scores of the average level of cancer patients in the dimension of confrontation and catharses.In the dimensions of avoidance and suppression,resignation and fantasy,the scores of cancer long-term survivors group were lower than the scores of the average level of cancer patients.All the differences were significant statistically (P ＜ 0.05).The PASCP scores of cancer long-term survivors group were higher than the scores of the average level of cancer patients in the dimension of emotion/self-esteem,subjective feeling,interpersonal relationship/social life,the daily life and the other.The differences was significant statistically(P＜ 0.001).Conclusion There are common characteristics of cancer long-term survivors such as good mental health state,lower tumor psychological level,positive coping styles,getting better psychological adjustment.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of herbs by internal and external administration combined with semiconductor laser irradiation in the treatment of chronic eczema.Methods Eighty-six patients with chronic eczema were divided into the herb group and the laser group by the randomized digital table,43 patients in each group.The patients in the herb group received oral administration with Chinese herbs together with application of herbs on the affected foci.The patients in the laser group received the same treatment as in the herb group and meanwhile treated with additional semiconductor laser therapy.The clinical effects were evaluated according to their itch degree and skin lesions.Result The cure rate and total effective rate were both significantly higher in the laser group than those in the herb group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with herbal internal and external administration only,the clinical efficacy of herbal internal and external administration combined with semiconductor laser irradiation is more effective in the treatment of chronic eczema.

Objective To explore the effect of transcription factor E2F1 on the apoptosis of small cell cancer line H446. Methods Plamid vector- mediated E2F1 small hairpin RNA (shRNA) was used to silence E2F1 in H446 cell. RT-PCR and western-blot assay were used to detect the expressions of E2F1 and Bcl-2. The apoptosis rate in H446 cell line was detected by flow cytometry assay. Result E2F1 protein was suppressed in shRNA1-modified H446 cell. Sgnificant difference of the apoptosis was shown between E2F1 shRNA1 group and the other two groups. Additionaly, the expression of Bcl-2 protein increased in E2F1 shRNA1-modified cell line. Conclusions E2F1 is highly expressed in H446 small cell lung cancer cell line. E2F1 promotes apoptosis of H446 through upregulating Bcl-2 expression.

Objective To explore the intervention effect of evidence-based nursing on the health behavior of elderly hypertensive patients in the community.Methods 187 elderly hypertensive patients who were hospitalized in December 2015 and met the inclusive criteria were divided into observation group (n=93) and control group (n=94).The observation group received evidence-based nursing according to the evidence-based medical system evaluation while the control group was given regular nursing both for 6 months.The clinical efficacy of two nursing modes was observed and the differences between pre-intervention and pose-intervention and groups were recorded and analyzed with a self-designed questionnaire, drug compliance questionnaire and health behavior scale.Results In the observation group, the blood pressure was effectively controlled or reduced, treatment compliance was significantly increased and body mass index (BMI) was within the ideal range 6 months later.Scores of unhealthy behaviors such as those in living habits and mental stress were lower than those in the control group, which showed significant difference (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in activity participation between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion Evidence-based nursing intervention can effectively control the hypertension, improve the treatment compliance of the community elderly hypertension patients and help lead them to a more positive and healthier life style.

Objective To understand the characteristics of pathogenic bacteria and drug resistance of ventilator-associated pneu-monia(VAP)in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU),and to explore the corresponding prevention and control measures,and to pro-vide the basis for the VAP antibiotic treatment.Methods A total of 80 children with respiratory failure and ventilator assisted breathing were selected from the NICU as objects in this study.The clinical data,pathogenic bacteria and drug resistance were ana-lyzed retrospectively.Results In 80 cases,the incidence of VAP was 43.75% (35/80),a total of 70 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated,gram negative bacilli accounted for the highest proportion,accounting for 81.43% (57/70).Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae were the most common gram negative bacilli.Gram positive cocci accounted for 8.57% (13/70),which domi-nated by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus,in addition to susceptible to vancomycin,but resistant to the other antibiotics. Conclusion Gram negative bacillus are the main bacteria in VAP cases,and which are multiple drug-resistant pathogens.

Objective]In order to study the impact of adenoid hypertrophy(AH)with allergic rhinitis(AR)in the otitis media with effusion(OME)in children,as well as to discuss the risk factors on the inducement of OME in patients with AH.[Methods]The clinical materials were collected and analyzed from 205 children with AH who admitted for surgical treatment between 2013 and 2015, including medical history and signs,acoustic immittance measurement,allergy screen as well as blood routine,and to evaluate the situation of OME and AR in patients with AH. All the data were analyzed by SPSS 20.0.[Results]Among the 205 AH children,66 cases(32.20%)were accompanying with OME. The AH patients aged 3-5 years had the highest incidence of OME,which decreased with age(P=0.018). It is significant on the prevalence of the OME in patients with AH between the two groups with and without AR (P = 0.010). In the logistic model investigating the risk factors of inducing OME among patients with AH,the third-degree AH, Type-three and the accompanying with AR were significant. The third-degree and third-type AH children were 2.729 and 6.390-folds higher than others respectively (P = 0.047,P = 0.001). The incidence of OME appeared to be 1.212-folds higher among patients with AR(P = 0.010).[Conclusion]Mechanical obstruction and AR played a superimposed role in the inducement of OME among patients with AH,which was effected by multiple factors. We should pay attention to the“lateral respiratory”allergic diseases on eustachian tube and middle ear.

OBJECTIVE To obtain and compare the clinical characteristics in patients with allergic rhinitis(AR) and nonallergic rhinitis(NAR) and investigate the trends in the proportion of AR and NAR in recent 10 years in Guangzhou. METHODS 5486 patients with nasal hyper-reactivity symptoms were divided into the AR group and NAR group. Clinical data including gender, age distribution and seasonality were analyzed. RESULTS The trends in the proportion of AR and NAR during the past decade did not change significantly. Male made up the majority of AR patients and NAR patients and AR patients were significantly younger than NAR patients. Male AR patients were significantly younger than females, while there were no significant difference in the age distribution among the male NAR patients and female ones. As the age increasing, the proportion of AR and NAR patients in overall study population present opposite tendency. The main onset season in AR was summer and in NAR was winter in Guangzhou city. CONCLUSION There were significant differences between AR and NAR in age, gender and seasonality. However, the trends in the proportion of AR and NAR in recent 10 years did not change significantly in Guangzhou.

OBJECTIVE To drew the map of distribution of concealed sites in epistaxis and optimize the mode of diagnosis and treatment. METHODS We have searched 117 references on intractable/refractory/latent epistaxis treated under nasal endoscopy in the last decade, including 11 708 cases with epistaxis. There were total 11 860 cases in this study plus 152 cases in our hospital. We summed up the experiences of the optimized treatment mode performed on concealed epistaxis, which was searching the accurate bleeding areas by nasal endoscopy and performing minimally invasive radiofrequency treatment without nasal packing. RESULTS We had found that the offending arteries about epistaxis are mainly sphenopalatine artery and anterior or posterior ethmoid artery. The frequency of bleeding areas came as follows: the vault of inferior nasal meatus in 3783 cases(31.90%), the olfactory sulcus of middle turbinate in 3522 cases(29.70%), the posterior regions of middle meatus in 1349 cases(11.37%), the regions of deviation of nasal septum in 1065 cases(8.98%), the foremost regions of nasal cavity in 738 cases(6.22%), and the others or uncertain in 1403 cases(11.83%). Finally, we drew a concise map of distribution about epistaxis on the basis of the concealed bleeding areas and offending vessels. 151 of 152 patients(99.34%) could find out the bleeding sites accurately and stop the bleeding through minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation. CONCLUSION We drew a map of distribution about epistaxis in concealed areas so that it is convenient for us to seek out the bleeding sites. Rational use of nasal endoscopy to explore the sites of intractable epistaxis and minimally invasive radiofrequency are optimized mode of treatment.
