Objective To investigate the effect of psychologic nursing on the rehabilitation for post-stroke depression(PSD) patients. Method 62 patients of 98 PSD patients were divided into 31couples. According to age, sex, course of illness and statge of illness, the patients were divided into rehabilitation nursing ( interference group) and routine nursing ( control group) with CES - D ( Center of epidemi ological survey - depression Scale ) and CNFD ( Criterion of nervous function defect). Every couple was compared with each other. Result The score of two groups before treatment was not obviously different(p＞ 0. 05). Two scores in two groups after treatment were obviously better than those of before treatment. Two scores of interference group were significantly higher compared with control group ( p ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion Interference of psychologic nursing is effective in treating post - stroke depression.

Objective To evaluate the indeterminate growth mutant of tomato derived by space mutagenesis to provide the basis for selecting and cultivating the molecular markers of tomato growth habit. Methods Fifty 10-mer randomly amplified polymorphic DNA(RAPD) primers were used to examine the polymorphism of M1 and 10-3-2. Their polymorphic fragments were cloned, and then were transferred to SCAR markers. Results Of all the 50 10-mer RAPD primers, 44 primers amplified polymerase chain reaction(PCR) products and 2 primers (S165 and S168) amplified stable reproducible polymorphic products. The molecular weight of the specific amplified products were 300 bp and 1 500 bp respectively, therefore they were named as TRS165300 and TRS1681500 temporarily. And TRS1681500 was transferred into stable sequence characterized amplified region(SCAR) marker and this marker could be a specific genetic marker of this indeterminate growth habit mutant. Conclusion Space mutation can produce mutants at DNA level from the loaded materials. The indeterminate growth mutant of tomato is derived by space mutagenesis which can provide a valuable material for studying the regulation and control of tomato growth habit.

Objective To select excellent tomato mutants by space treatment and to cultivate directly new varieties for production application and good seed resource.Methods Seeds of tomato cultivar were carried into space by scientific experiment recoverable satellite.The main agricultural characters of tomato mutant were observed and analyzed.Results Seeds of determinate growth habit tomato cultivar T10-3-2 were carried into space in 2002 by a recoverable satellite(Shenzhou 4).After cultivation and selection,two tomato variants(H1 and H2) and their offspring populations were obtained in SP2.Variations included quantitative character variations such as maturity,fruit characters and fruit trait,as well as genetic character variations such as changes from determinate growth to indeterminate growth of plant growth habits,and from the no shoulders to the green shoulders of fruits.These two kinds of changes were dominant mutations,and could inherit stably.The research also indicated that variations(amplitude,standard deviation and coefficient of variation) of each generation of two mutants,reduced along with generation increasing.It was showed these characters to be easily stable.Conclusion Tomato seeds loaded on spacecraft can truly form the tomato character variation,and the variation character may be stably inherited.

Objective To select excellent tomato mutants by space treatment and to cultivate directively new varieties for production application.Method Growth dynamics and change of agricultural characters of the mutant of indeterminate growth habit was observed.And the enzymogram and activity of two kinds of main isoenzyme were analyzed.Result An indeterminate growth habit mutant(M1) which derived from a determinate growth habit cultivar(10-3-2) was obtained from the 1st generation after space treatment(SP_1).Being an inherited character,the indeterminate growth habit of the mutant can be expressed from generation to generation.The plant height of M1 was 145 cm,42.0 cm higher than that of the background one(increased by 29.6%),when the background plant height was determined.The main stem diameter of the mutant was 1.22 cm,0.34 cm thicker than that of background parent.However,there were no visible difference in the fruit size and fruit set percentage between them.The biological characters of M1 and its progenies were studied,and the results showed that the indeterminate growth have no side effects on the agronomic characters and fruit quality,and the mutant had a potentiality of higher yield if the condition is suitable.The activity of two enzymes,SOD and POD,was assayed and there were no obvious difference of SOD activities and enzymograms between the mutant and its background parent,but POD activity was much lower in mutant than that in its background parent.Conclusion After observation through 3 generations,it is found that indetermination growth habit is inheritable and stable.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of body weight supported treadmill training (BWSTT) for the recovery of walking ability and comprehensive function after thoracolumbar spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods Sixty patients with SCIs in a thoracolumbar segment were assigned to a treatment group or a control group with 30 in each.Both groups received similar conventional rehabilitation training,but the patients in the treatment group were additionally treated with BWSTT (30 to 40 min,once daily,5 d/week,30 days for a course,a total 3 courses).The American Spinal Injury Association lower-extremity motor function assessment (ASIA),a functional comprehensive assessment (FCA),the walking ability assessment from the FCA (WA) and the modified Barthel index (MB1) were used in the assessment of the two groups before and after treatment.Results There were no significant differences in the two groups＇ average ASIA,FCA,WA or MBI results before treatment.After treatment ASIA,FCA,WA and MBI scores had all increased significantly in the treatment group compared with before treatment,and were significantly higher than in the control group.Conclusion As a supplement to conventional rehabilitation,BWSTT can improve walking ability and comprehensive function significantly after thoracolumbar spinal cord injury.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the possibility and short-term effect of high dose chemotherapy with peripheral blood stem cell support in the preoperative therapy of breast cancer, and-its influence on the following operation and would healing.

METHODSThree patients with T(3)N(1)M(0) (III(a)), T(4)N(1)M(0) (III(b)), T(4)N(1)M(1) (IV) of breast cancer were diagnosed histopathologically. After receiving HDC/APBSCT, the 3 patients were operated on. HDC/APBSCT process included 2 cycles of FEC induction chemotherapy; PBSC mobilization, APBSC collection and cryopreservation and PBSC infusion; and high-dose chemotherapy, APBSC infusion and supportive therapy. The therapy consisted of CTX2.5 g/m(2), VP-16 600 mg/m(2), and cerboplatin 600 mg/m(2) delivered on day 1, APBSC infusion 48 h later, rhG-CSF (150 microg, BID) was administered 4 h after infusion of APBSC until WBC was higher than 10 x 10(9)/L. During HDC/APBSCT, the patients were protected in the air laminar flow room with supportive therapy of antibiotics, anti-virus and anti-fungus drugs. They left the air laminar flow room after their WBC was greater than 2 x 10(9)/L. Case 1 was treated by radical mastectomy, Case 2 by improved radical mastectomy, Case 3 by improved radical mastectomy and transplantation of skin for the large area.

RESULTSRapid recovery of bone marrow function was observed in all 3 patients. Operation was performed 4 weeks after HDC/PBSCT in Cases 1, 2 and 33 days in Case 3. No influence was seen on operative procedure and would healing, especially in Case 3 with a large area of skin transplantation. Two patients with stage III(a) and III(b) have been alive since the treatment for 30 months and the other with stage IV died of brain metastasis 16 months later.

CONCLUSIONSHDC/APBSCT as a preoperative therapy for breast cancer has no influence on the coming surgery and would healing, even on skin transplantation for a large area. It has a practical response in stage III(a) and III(b), but it is still controversial in stage IV. This method as a salvage therapy for patients with breast cancer of intemuediate or stage.

Purpose: Excessive alcohol consumption has been linked to an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). We evaluated the association between alcohol-related genetic variants and CRC risk. Materials and Methods: The study cohort consisted of 5,435 CRC cases and 3,553 population-based cancer-free controls. Genotype data were generated from germline DNA using the Infinium OncoArray-500K BeadChip in 2,535 cases and 2,287 controls and the Infinium Multi-Ethnic Global BeadChip in 2,900 cases and 1,266 controls. The associations between aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) rs671 and alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (ADH1B) rs1229984 polymorphisms and CRC risk were assessed using multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results: Compared with the major homozygous ALDH2 genotype (GG), heterozygous or minor homozygous ALDH2 genotype (GA or AA, related to a low alcohol consumption) was significantly associated with a reduced risk for CRC in men (odds ratio [OR], 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.68 to 0.90), but not in women (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.47 to 1.05). A stronger association was found among regular drinkers (OR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.71 in men and OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.18 to 0.58 in women). No association of CRC risk with ADH1B rs1229984 genotype was found. The association between alcohol-related combined genotypes and risk of CRC was significant (p for linear=0.001). The combined genotype with the highest genetically predicted alcohol consumption (ALDH2 rs671 GG and ADH1B rs1229984 AG/GG) was associated with a high risk for CRC (OR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.63). Conclusion Our study provides strong evidence for a possible causal association between alcohol consumption and CRC risk.
