Objective To study the relationships of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and genetic polymorphisms of glutathione s-transferase P1 (GSTP1) with gastric cancer (GC). Methods The 98 patients with GC and 149 controls with normal finding at endoscopy were enrolled for this study. The rapid urease test (RUT), 13C- urea breath test (13C-UBT) and Giemsa staining of biopsy samples were used to check Hp infection. PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) was used to detect GSTP1 genotype. Results The rate of Hp infection was higher in GC group than in control group (54.1% vs. 40.9%, x2 =4.11, P＜0. 05). The risk of GC would significantly increase in the GSTP1 homozygous mutant gene (MM) group with Hp infection (OR=5.44, 95%CI 1. 26-26. 79, x2=7.13, P＜0.05). Conclusions Hp infection and GSTP1 genetic polymorphisms are associated with gastric cancer risk in the elderly.

Objective To understand the state of self-congruence in nurses and discuss their rela-tion with psychological health. Methods Self coasisteney and congruence scale (SCCS) and state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI)were used to test 216 nurses. Results The degree of self-congruence of nurses was relatively low,difference existed in self-congruence among nurses in different departments (P<0.05). Self-congruence was significantly related with state-trait anxiety(P<0.01). Conclusions Selective psy-chological intervention needs be given to some nurses to maintain their psychological health.

To investigate the protective effect of L-carnitine on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat heart,all harvested isolated hearts were perfused on Langendorff apparatus with oxygenized K-H solution for 20 min. The hearts were then exposed to ischemia for 30 min. Following the ischemia the hearts were re-perfused with K-H solution for 120 min to serve as the control group A. Either 5 or 10 mmol/L of L-carnitine was added into the K-H solution for 20 min at the beginning of reperfusion to generate group B and group C, respectively. The derivatives of the intraventricular pressure curve (DP/DT), left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), and coronary flux were monitored during the entire experiment. The levels of ATP, hepatin, malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in tissue, and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphate kinase (CPK), malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) concentration in the coronary efflux were all measured. Compared with the control group, the treatment with L-carnitine resulted in better results, i. e., higher DP/DTmax and LVDP. At the same time, ventricular fibrillation was reduced, and the levels of ATP, hepatin and SOD were all elevated. However, the concentrations of MDA, CPK and LDH were all reduced. In conclusion, L-carnitine has a protective effect on ischemia-reperfusion injury, which is partly due to its prevention of energy loss and its antioxidant activity.

Objective:To explore the psychological factors influencing seasickness in different individuals, so as to provide guidelines for prevention and treatment of seasickness from psychological perspective. Methods: Medical undergraduate students (n=124) were subjected to the following tests before training on the sea: rod and frame apparatus, motion sickness history questionnaire, seasickness self-efficacy scale, body vigilance scale, EPQ, and state-trait anxiety inventory. The total number of valid questionnaires was 123. During sailing the seasickness state of students was assessed by Graybiel’s diagnostic criteria based on their seasickness symptoms and signs. Results: Among the 123 students 75 had seasickness and 48 did not have. Single factor analysis showed that motion sickness history and seasickness self-efficacy were statistically significant(P

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of Liangxue-Xiaofeng Decoction combined with acitretin A capsule in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods:A total of 80 patients with psoriasis vulgaris from March 2015 to June 2019 in our hospital, who met the inclusion criteria, were divided into two groups according to the random number table method, 40 patients in each group. The control group was given acitretin A capsules on the basis of conventional western medicine treatment, and the study group was given Liangxue-Xiaofeng Decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 2 months and followed up for 6 months. The skin lesion area and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) scores were performed before and after treatment. The levels of IL-8, IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by real time PCR amplification, and the levels of histone acetyltransferase (HATs) and histone deacetylase (HDACs) by ELISA. The adverse reactions and recurrence during the follow-up period were recorded and the clinical efficacywas evaluated. Results:The total effective rate of the study group was 82.5% (33/40) and that of the control group was 62.5% (25/40). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=4.012, P=0.045). After treatment, the PASI score of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( t=7.921, P<0.01), and the serum levels of IL-8, IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=12.749, 13.933, 10.856, all Ps<0.01); the activity of HATs [(35.03 ± 3.79) g/L vs. (29.26 ± 2.41) g/L, t=8.125] of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0.01), and HDACs activity [(31.00 ± 2.71) g/L vs. (37.55 ± 3.08) g/L, t=10.098] of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Acitretin A capsule combined with Liangxue-Xiaofeng Decoction can reduce the level of inflammatory cytokines in patients with psoriasis vulgaris, and prevent the disease progression. The mechanism may be related to the regulation of homeostasis balance in acetylation.

Objective To analyze the adverse reactions of hysterosalpingography and prevention measures. Methods Totally 6 352 patients who underwent hysterosalpingography in our hospital between January 2006 and December 2013 were analyzed. Results Totally 836 cases had adverse reactions of different degrees including 312 cases of drug reactions and 626 cases of non?drug reactions. The adverse drug reactions were mainly hy?pogastralgia,laryngopharyngeal malaise,irritating cough,nausea,vomiting,shortness of breath,flush of the face,and pruritus. The non?drug reac?tions were mainly hypogastralgia,nausea,vomiting,pallor,speeding up of heart?beat,decreased blood pressure,dizziness,and blur version. Con?clusion Among patients who were negative for iodine anaphylactic test,there were still some who had adverse reactions of different degrees during HSG. Targeting at different conditions of reactions,corresponding prevention measures should be adopted to ensure the smooth progress of hysterosal?pingography.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between spectinomycin resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae and mutations in the rpsE gene.Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from 4 clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae with different levels of spectinomycin resistance.Then,PCR was performed to amplify the entire rpsE gene and the spectinomycin resistance-determining region (SRDR) in the 16S rRNA gene followed by direct sequencing.Two spectinomycin-sensitive Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains were transformed with the genomic DNA containing the mutant rpsE gene.Subsequently,the susceptibility of the transformants to spectinomycin was determined,and PCR was performed to amplify the rpsE and 16S rRNA genes in the transformants followed by sequencing.Results All the 4 spectinomycin-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains harbored an A70C transversion in the rpsE gene,but no abnormality in the SRDR of the 16S rRNA gene.No mutations were detected in the spectinomycin-sensitive Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains.The A70C transversion in the rpsE gene was also detected in the two Neisseria gonorrhoeae transformants with spectinomycin resistance.Conclusion The A70C point mutation within the rpsE gene is associated with spectinomycin resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
