Objective To explore the application and effectiveness of simulated patient role play in the inquiry and the medical record writing teaching.Methods Carrying out the teaching model of simulated patient role play in the Second Clinical Medical College of Southern Medical University to the undergraduate students of grade 2009 snd 2010 in diagnose inquiry and medical record writing training class.A self-designed student questionnaire mainly about atmosphere of class,study enthusiasm,Self-evaluation of learning efficiency,the effect of the medical record writing in-class training and so on was used to do the survey.On the other hand,questionnaire for teachers included students' performance,students' writing ability,etc.100 students and 50 teachers were investigated with the survey.The percentage of the options of each question on the questionnaire was calculated in order to analyze the new teaching mode.Results The random questionnaire survey showed that 85％ (85/100) of the students believe that the new teaching mode can activate classroom atmosphere and improve learning motivation.About 62％(62/100) of the students said medical record writing errors can be obtained and corrected timely in-class training.Most students in grade 2009 have better capacity in medical record writing than those students who did not contact with new teaching mode.Conclusion The teaching model of simulated patient role play in the analogue inquiry and medical record writing is efficient and feasible in medical education,which can improve students' practical ability and is expected to be applied in undergraduate medical education.

Objective To study the metabolism of amino acids in AIDS patients for the purpose of providing appropriate nutritional support.Method High performance liquid chromatography combined with pre-column derivatization technology was used to detect free amino acids in plasma from 22 untreated AIDS patients,16 HAART treated AIDS patients and 30 healthy controls.Statistic analysis was performed through SPSS software.Results The concentration of alanine(Ala) was significantly increased and the concentration of phenoalanine(Phe) was remarkably decreased in AIDS patients as compared with the healthy controls(P

Objective To investigate the expressions of CD40 and ICAM-1 in primary hepatocarcinoma and clinical significance and analyze their relationships with carcinogenesis and progression of liver cancer. Methods S-P immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of CD40 and ICAM-1 in 40 cases of hepatocarcinoma and 25 cases of normal liver tissue (distance from cancer tissues≥2 cm).Results The positive expression rates of CD40 and ICAM-1 were 47.5% and 82.5% in liver cancer tissue,which was significantly higher than those in normal liver tissue (P0.05).The positive expression rate of ICAM-1 was associated with lymph node metastasis as well as histological grade(P

Objective To investigate the correlations of serum matrix metalloproteinase-2, -9 (MMP-2, MMP-9) contents and tissue expressions in hepatocellular carcinoma with tumor invasion and metastasis. Methods Serum MMP-2, MMP-9 contents were detected in 40 patient with hepatocellular carcinoma and 20 healthy controls by ELISA; the expressions and distributions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in 40 patients and 10 normal tissues were detected by immunohistochemical method. Results Serum MMP-2, MMP-9 contents were significantly elevated in cancer samples compared with normal serum (P

AIM: To explore the effects of chromodomain protein 8 (CBX8) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human glioma cells.METHODS: The expression of CBX8 in the tissues and cells was detected by Western blot and RT-qPCR.The overexpression (Flag-CBX8) and silencing (sh-CBX8) vectors of CBX8 were constructed and transfected into glioma T98G cells and U87MG cells.The cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay and BrdU staining.The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry.The protein expression of Rb/E2F1 was detected by Western blot.RESULTS: Compared with normal brain tissues and astrocytes, the expression of CBX8 was increased in the glioma tissues and glioma cells.Overexpression of CBX8 promoted the cell proliferation, inhibited the cell apoptosis, and upregulated the protein levels of Rb/E2F1.On the contrary, silencing of CBX8 inhibited the cell proliferation, promoted the cell apoptosis, and decreased the protein levels of Rb/E2F1 in the T98G cells and U87MG cells.Moreover, the expression of cyclin D1 and Bcl-2/Bax ratio were reduced after transfection with sh-E2F1 in the T98G cells and U87MG cells.CONCLUSION: CBX8 may regulate the proliferation and apoptosis of glioma cells through Rb/E2F1 pathway.

Objective To explore the changes in angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ)produced by Langerhan islets of Syrian hamsters after blockage of renin-angiotensin system(RAS)by different inhibitors.Methods Islet cells from Syrian golden hamster were isolated and purified,and angiotensin Ⅰ was added.The experiment was then divided into six groups:control group(PBS was added),captopril group,chymostatin group,aprotinin group,?-antitrypsin group,and captopril+chymostatin group(according to inhibitors added).The content of AngⅡ in supernatant was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Compared with control group,the AngⅡ content decreased by 42.50% and 50.94% in captopril group and chymostatin group,respectively(P

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of apoptotic protease activating factor 1 (Apaf-1) and bax in prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of Apaf-1 and bax in the tissues from 45 PCa patients and 60 BPH patients. Results The positive rates of Apaf-1 and bax in PCa tissues were 22.22%(10/45) and 20.00 % (9/45), respectively, while those in BPH tissues were 48.33 % (29/60) and 46.67 % (28/60). There was a statistically significant difference in the expressions of Apaf-1 and bax between two groups (P< 0.05). The expressions of Apaf-1 and bax were not correlated with the age of patients and distant metastasis (P>0.05), but they were correlated with the pathological grade and clinical stage of PCa (P< 0.05). The expressions of Apaf-1 and bax in PCa tissues were lower than those in BPH tissues. There was a positive correlation between the expression of Apaf-1 and bax (r=0.535, P<0.01). Conclusion Apaf-1 and bax might be correlated with the carcinogenesis and development of PCa.

Objective To investigate the relationship between renin (REN) gene G10631A, angiotensinogen (AGT) gene T704C mononucleotide polymorphisms and cerebral infarction and to investigate the mechanisms and characteristics of cerebral infarction from molecular level. Methods REN gene G1063A and AGT gene T704C polymorphisms in 82 patients with cerebral infarction and 89 controls were detected with polymerase chain reactionrestriction fragment length polymorphism. The differences of the genotypes and allele frequencies were compared between the patient group and the control group. Results The frequency of REN 10631AA genotype (31. 7% vs. 10. 1%,χ2 =12. 816, P = 0. 002) and the frequency of A genotype (49. 4% vs. 30. 3% χ2 = 12. 969, P =0. 000), as well as the frequency of AGT 704 CC genotype (63. 4% vs. 34. 8% χ2 = 15. 029, P = 0. 001) and the frequency of A genotype (79. 9% vs. 61. 2% χ2 = 14. 173, P = 0. 000) in the cerebral infarction group were all significantly higher than those in the control group; the frequency of haplotype 704C 10631A was also significantly higher than that in the control group (P=0. 000). Conclusions REN 10631AA genetype and A allele as well as AGT 704 CC genetype and C allele may be the susceptible factors of cerebral infarction. Haplotype 704C-10631 A may be a genetic risk factor for the occurrence of cerebral infarction.
