In recent years, tumor has become one of the major diseases that endanger human health. It is of great significance to explore the pathogenesis of tumors in the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of tumors. microRNA (miRNA) is a class of small non-coding RNA, which is involved in post transcriptional processing, epigenetic inheritance, cell growth and individual development and other important life activities. miRNA, charactered by oncogenes and anti-oncogenes function, participates in the development, invasion and metastasis of tumors. Telomeres, located at the end of chromosomes, are closely related to the malignant transformation of cells and the aging of human. To understand the pathogenesis of tumors and to provide a novel direction for the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of tumors, the role and the relationship of miRNA and telomere in tumors are reviewed in this paper.

Objective To explore the relationship of depth of trophoblastic invasion with trophoblast cell activity and serum β-hCG according to the expression of proliferation antigen Ki-67 which viewed as an indicator of cell proliferation activity.Methods Fallopian tube specimens collected from 108 patients who underwent operation treatment for fallopian tubal pregnancy in our hospital were investigated by light microscopic examination.They were divided into three groups according to the depth of trophoblastic infiltration: Ⅰ group (stage): trophoblastic invasion of tubal mucosa,Ⅱ group(stage): trophoblastic invasion of the muscularis,Ⅲ group(stage): trophoblast invasion of serosa layer(muscularis penetration).The expression of Ki-67 was detected by SP method and blood β-hCG was detected within 2 hours of preoperative.The level of β-hCG,the expression of Ki-67 and the depth of trophoblast invasion were analyzed.Results Mean level of serumβ-hCG in Group Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ were(1416.64 ± 859.94)U/L,(3380.33 ± 2392.36)U/L and(6999.33 ± 4949.90)U/L respectively.Positive expression rate of cell proliferation antigen Ki-67 in Group Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 21.95％,53.66％ and 6.40％ respectively.There were significant difference on the expression of Ki-67 between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ,group Ⅱ and Ⅲ group,group Ⅰ and group Ⅲ(x2 =3.94,4.07,4.35,respectively,P ＜ 0.05).The serumβ-hCG level also displayed statistics difference in the three groups(F =9.914,P ＜ 0.01).The positive expression of Ki-67 and serum β-hCG level were positively correlated with each other(r =0.678,P ＜ 0.05)Conclusion The high level of the serum β-hCG indicates high expression of Ki-67 and deeper trophoblast invasion of tubal wall.

The roles of voltage-dependent K(+) channels during activation and damage in alveolar macrophages (AMs) exposed to different silica particles were examined. Rat AMs were collected by means of bronchoalveolar lavage, and were adjusted to 5x10(5)/mL. After AMs were exposed to different concentrations (0, 25, 50, 100, 200 mug/mL) of quartz particles and 100 mug/mL amorphous silica particles for 24 h, the voltage-depended K(+) current in AMs was measured by using patch clamp technique. Meanwhile the leakage of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and the viability of AMs were detected respectively. Patch clamp studies demonstrated that AMs possessed outward delayed and inward rectifying K(+) current. Exposure to quartz particles increased the outward delayed K(+) current but it had no effect on inward rectifier K(+) current in AMs. Neither of the two K(+) channels in AMs was affected by amorphous silica particles. Cytotoxicity test showed that both silica particles could damage AM membrane and result in significant leakage of LDH (P<0.05). MTT studies, however, showed that only quartz particles reduced viability of AMs (P<0.05). It is concluded that quartz particles can activate the outward delayed K(+) channel in AMs, which may act as an activating signal in AMs to initiate an inflammatory response during damage and necrosis in AMs induced by exposure to quartz particle. K(+) channels do not contribute to the membrane damage of AMs.

Objective To explore the feasibility of fishing net repairing transverse fascia method for inguinal hernia (type Ⅰ , Ⅱ ) using laparoscopic surgical procedure. Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data between the method of fishing net repairing transverse fascia surgery for 145 cases of inguinal hernia (typeⅠ,Ⅱ ) using laparoscopic surgical procedure from May 2004 to May 2008 (laparoscopic group) and the method of open repairing surgery 143 cases (open group) at the same period were conducted. The differences in the operative time, rehabilitation activities time, length of stay, cost of hospitalization and 0comphcations, recurrence rate were compared. Results The laparoscopic group was significantly better in the operative time [ ( 14.8 ± 11.5) min ], found hiding oblique hernia ( 15 cases), rehabilitation activities time[ ( 16.5 ± 14.3) h], use of analgesics(5 cases), scrotal edema(1 case), length of stay[ (4.2 ± 1.5) d], than those of the open group [ ( 37.6 ± 25.4) min, 0, (52.7 ± 12.6) h, 13, 14, ( 8.4 ± 2.6 ) d respectively ] ; but the recurrence rate was no significantly different. Conclusion Method of fishing net repairing transverse fascia for inguinal hernia (type Ⅰ , Ⅱ ) using laparoscopie surgical procedure is feasible.

OBJECTIVE: To study the impacts of RelA antisense oligonucleotides on proliferation in laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cell. METHOD: RelA antisense oligonucleotides was designed, which was transferred into laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cell. MTT was used to detect the growth-inhibiting ratio at different transferred timepoints. Hep-2 cell which was transferred 48 h was used to do colony assay, and expression of RelA was detected by Reverse Transcription PCR and Western blot. RESULT: MTT results showed that RelA antisense oligonucleotides could significantly suppress the proliferation of Hep-2 cell, and the suppression-ratio elevated with time. There were statistical difference compared with control groups. The number of cells colony was reduced in RelA antisense oligonucleotides group compared with control groups, which had statistic significance. RT-PCR and Western blot results demonstrated that RelA antisense oligonucleotides could significantly inhibit the expression of messenger RNA and protein in Hep-2 cell. CONCLUSION RelA antisense oligonucleotides can inhibit the expression of messenger RNA and protein, and induce the cell proliferation and increase the number of cells colony in Hep-2 cell.

Objective To explore the incidence, diagnosis and treatment of nephrotic syndrome ( NS ) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation ( allo-HSCT) in one single center.Methods Analysis were carried out based on the records of 1464 patients following allo-HSCT hospitalized in Peking University People's Hospital from January 1996 to April 2009, so as to evaluate the incidence and outcomes of NS. A total of 1464 patients whose survival time was longer than 100 d were enrolled. Eight patients (0.6%) had NS following allo-HSCT. Using the nested case-controlled study, 56 cases who received transplantation within the same period were selected as control group for risk factors analysis. Results The median time of NS was 488(54-1185)d after allo-HSCT. Lower extremities' edema and heavy proteinuria were present in all the patients. Two patients were accompanied with impaired renal function. Six patients suffered from chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Three patients with NS were accompanied with other symptoms of GVHD. Renal biopsy examination showed typical features of minimal change diseases in 3 patients and membranous nephropathy in 1 patient. All cases achieved complete remission (CR) after taking combined immunosuppressant agents. One patient relapsed soon after all the immunosuppressant agents were stopped. Six patients were still surviving with disease free. One patient died of the relapse of leukemia and another patient died of early discharge from hospital after allo-HSCT. The possible factors correlated with the occurrence of NS were analyzed, and the occurrence of chronic GVHD was identified as an independent factor of NS. Conclusions NS should be carefully taken into consideration when edema and proteinuria are present in patients following allo-HSCT. The occurrence of NS is probably related with chronic GVHD. NS responds well to immunosuppressant agents.

Objective: To explore the relationship between the time of sedentary behaviors and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among rural adults in Henan Province. Methods: A total of 1 227 adults from Houzhai village in Zhengzhou City and Qiaomiao village in Jiaozuo City in Henan Province were randomly selected to participate in the survey; each of them finished a questionnaire and accepted physical examination and test of biochemical indicators. The participants were divided into case and control groups according to whether suffering from T2DM. A Pearson linear correlation and linear regression model analysis were used to investigate the relevance between the time of sedentary behaviors and fasting plasma glucose (FPG); meanwhile, a multi factor logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between the time of sedentary behaviors and T2DM. Results: The average FPG level among the participants was (5.4±2.5) mmol/L, and the average time of sedentary behaviors was (234.5±156.5) min per day. The prevalence rate of T2DM in subgroups whose time of sedentary behaviors were separately 0-<2.5, 2.5-<4.5, 4.5-<6.5 and ≥6.5 h/day were 15.8% (72/457), 19.3% (73/379), 16.7% (35/210) and 20.4% (37/181), respectively. There was a linear regression relationship between the time of sedentary behaviors(x) and FPG(y), the regression equation was: y=5.081+0.001x (t=3.01, P=0.003). Logistic regression model analysis showed that participants whose time of sedentary behaviors ≥6.5 h/day had significantly higher risk of T2DM than those whose time of sedentary behaviors between 0-2.4 h/day (OR=1.77, 95%CI: 1.11-2.81) after age and gender adjusted. However, the associations only exist in males and adults ≥50 years old according to sex and age stratification. It showed that participants with sedentary time ≥6.5 h/day had significantly higher risk of T2DM than those with sedentary time between 0-<2.5 h/d, with the corresponding OR (95%CI) at 2.34 (1.21-4.52) and 2.22 (1.19-4.16), respectively. Conclusion The prolonged sedentary time is a risk factor of type 2 diabetes. After stratification by gender and age, the correlation only found in males and adults aged ≥50 years old.

Objective:To explore the teaching effectiveness of curriculum ideological and political teaching model for Fundamentals of Nursing based on outcome based education concept.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 194 undergraduates of grade 2019 from School of Nursing at University of South China were selected as the control group from February to December 2021, and 146 undergraduates from 2020 were selected as the experimental group from February to December 2022. The control group was taught in accordance with the conventional teaching methods, and the experimental group was taught in the ideological and political teaching model of Fundamentals of Nursing based on outcome based education concept. After the intervention, the total course scores of nursing undergraduates in the two groups were compared, and the cognitive attitude, implementation effect and teaching satisfaction of the experimental group students on "ideological and political curriculum" were compared.Results:After the intervention, the total course score of nursing undergraduates in the experimental group was (85.65±7.31), and that in the control group was (77.71±7.28), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The cognitive attitude score of undergraduate nursing students in the experimental group towards "ideological and political curriculum" was (32.62±2.15), and the implementation effect score of "ideological and political curriculum" was (22.78±1.78). The satisfactory form of ideological and political cases for undergraduate nursing students in the experimental group was news reports and hot events, and the satisfactory ideological and political teaching method was experiential teaching method and case-based teaching method. Conclusions:The curriculum ideological and political teaching model of Fundamentals of Nursing based on outcome based education concept can improve the academic performance of nursing undergraduate students and provide reference for the construction of ideological and political teaching courses in nursing basic courses. In the future, this teaching model can be applied to the teaching reform of other nursing courses in order to accelerate the progress of ideological and political construction of professional courses.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for the relapsed hematologic malignancies. Methods The data of 25 relapsed patients received the second allogeneic transplantation as a salvage therapy in Institute of Hematology Peking University between October 1999 and March 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. Twenty-four patients relapsed at 8. 8 (1-55) months after the first transplantation, except one received the second transplantation as prophylaxis therapy. They received the second transplantation after 3(0. 3-20) months' therapy. The median time between the 2 transplants was 10. 6(0. 6-59. 0) months. Results Most of the patients were given the conditioning regimen including total body irradiation (TBI, 700-779 cGy) or modified busulfan and cyclophosphamide (BUCY, BU 12 mg). All patients survived more than 30 days and achieved sustained white blood cell engraftment. Sinus obstructive syndrome, irradiation dermatitis and acute myocardial infraction were occurred in 3 patients and recoverable. Until January 31 in 2011, with a median observation period of 9. 1 (2. 0-131. 1) months, 8 patients had been living with a overall survival (OS) of 30.9%.Twelve patients relapsed at a median 4. 4 months and 10 died of it. The other 7 patients died of transplant related complications. The non-relapsed mortality was 35. 1 %. The disease status at the 2nd transplantation was the only factor which effected the OS (P = 0. 009). Conclusions The second allogeneic transplantation is a viable option for patients relapsing after the first transplantation. Reduced intensive conditioning regimen ensures the graft engraftment and reduces transplant related toxicity.
