Objective:Through a study on knowledge, attitudes, and practice of tobacco control of medical staff in Gansu Province, the paper aims to analyze the issues of participation, community tobacco control leadership and other aspects that impact the creation of a smoke-free healthcare system in order to provide a basis for the formulation of policies to improve the health professional mechanism of tobacco control. Methods:The stratified cluster sampling method was adopted to select 34 companies, accounting for a total of 805 medical staff as the study population in all kinds of health institutions. A self-designed questionnaire was adopted to investigate their knowledge, attitudes, and practice via on-site self-administered surveys. Results:the medical staff lacks knowledge as to the depth and breadth of damage from the use of tobacco. Although their attitude towards tobacco control is positive, the comprehensive to-bacco control service capabilities are insufficient. Logistic regression analysis showed that tobacco control capabilities of medical staff is related to their attitude toward smoking and whether or not they discourage smoking or asking about smoking . Conclusion:The key to the creation of a smoke-free health system to lead the community in tobacco control is the targeted tobacco cessation knowledge and skills training of medical staff to reduce smoking rates among medical staff and enhance the awareness of administrative staff.

Objective To detect and analyze the expression and significance of olfactory receptor family 2 subfamily W member 3 (OR2W3) in gastric adenocarcinoma,and to explore its correlation with cell proliferation and apoptosis. Methods From January 2013 to June 2014, 61 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma diagnosed in the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Technology and undergoing radical operation were selected as the study subjects. Neoplasm tissue were selected as the observation group, normal gastric mucosa ( 61 cases) were selected as the control group. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of or2w3 and HER-2 in the two groups. Fish was used to detect the amplification of HER-2 gene in some of the patients with uncertain expression of HER-2. Western blot was used to detect the expression of PCNA and BAX in the observation group. Results Positive rate of OR2W3 was higher in the observation group ( 50. 8%, 31／61) than that in the control group ( 8. 2%( 5／61 )), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(χ2＝26. 63,P＜0. 05). The difference of the positive rate of OR2W3 in the maximum diameter(≥6 cm was 68. 8%(22／32),＜6 cm was 31. 0%( 9／29)),depth of invasion(seroas and beyond was 63. 4%(26／41),less serosa was 25. 0%(5／20)),vascular and lymphatic vessel involvement ( involvement was 78. 6%( 11／14),no involvement was 42. 6%( 20／47)), lymph node metastasis(metastasis was 82. 1%(23／28),no metastasis was 24. 2%(3／33)) and TNM staging(Ⅲ+Ⅳwas 78. 1%(25／32),Ⅰ+Ⅱ was 20. 7%( 6／29)) in observation group was statistically significant ( χ2 was 8. 423,7. 937,5. 559,20. 318,20. 080,respectively,all P＜0. 05). Expression of OR2W3 was correlated with survival time(X2＝5. 31,P＜0. 05). Positive correlation was found between OR2W3 and PCNA expression(r＝0. 54,P＜0. 05) . Negative correlation were found between OR2W3 and BAX expression ( r＝－0. 59, P＜0. 05). There were 8 cases of HER-2 positive and 53 cases of HER-2 negative. The difference of OR2W3 expression in tumors with different HER-2 expression was statistically significant ( χ2＝4. 957,P＜0. 05) . Conclusion The expression of OR2W3 in gastric adenocarcinoma tissue is significantly increased,which can promote the proliferation of cancer cells and inhibit apoptosis. OR2W3 is related to HER-2 expression. Detection of OR2W3 expression may be of some value in judging prognosis.
