Journal of International Oncology 2008;35(9):684-686
Early and non-invasive hematological test in breast cancer is always hot topic. In recent year, enzyme, cytokine, glycoprotein, carcinoembrynoic antigen (CEA), prolactin and oncogene protein are studied more, among them CA15-3 and CEA have important clinical value. Looking for hematological test markers which have high sensitivity and speciality is important work.

To explore the influence of low light on the synthesis of carotenoids, chlorophyll and the adaptability of transgenic plants with tomato Solanum lycopersicon L. GGPS2 gene, we constructed a vector containing a GGPS2 gene with green fluorescent protein (GFP) as report gene under the control of a cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and introduced it into tobacco Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Wisconsin 38 by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. PCR analysis of the DNA from kanamycin resistant tobacco indicated that the transgenic tobacco containing the nptII gene, SlaGGPS2 gene and without contamination of Agrobacterium. We also detected the root tip of kanamycin resistant tobacco showing characteristic fluorescence. The contents of carotenoid, chlorophyll and photosynthesis of transgenic tobacco increased in comparison with wild tobacco after low light treatment. In addition, leaf mass per unit area, total dry weight, ratio of root to shoot in transgenic tobacco were all higher than that of the wild tobacco, which proved that the transgenic tobacco could increase the accumulation of biomass and promote it transport to root. The transgenic tobacco with SlaGGPS2 gene can increase the contents of carotenoid, chlorophyll, enhance the photosynthetic rate, promote the biomass accumulation and its distribution to root. Hence, the transgenic tobacco with SlaGGPS2 gene had increased low light tolerance and the SlaGGPS2 gene maybe can be used in other crops.

Objective To know the effects of using performance assessment of nursing, and then summarize certain proper methods to control the quality of nursing. Methods Set up proper indexes of nursing performance assessment, building associated quality control system and standard, and then using them in the clinical nursing. Compared the effects of using performance assessment of nursing by the in-dexes such as nuring quality of hospital, nursing quality of department and head nurses' management mea-sures. Results The quality of nursing had significant better than before after using the performance as-sessment. There was a positive tendency of nursing quality from 2004 to 2008. Conclusions Performance assessment can effective promote the working efficacy, ameliate quality of nursing, fit the nursing targets, in-crease the nursing management efficacy and patients' satisfactory, and then increase the nursing quality in all the aspects, which is a kind of scientific management model.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of modifiedXiaochengqi decoction in treatment of gastroparesis syndrome (GS).Methods A total of 81 patients with GS from 2010 July to 2013 July in HuiZhou Municipal Central Hospital were selected and randomly recruited into a control group and a treatment group. The control group was treated with domperidone, 15-30 min before the meal, while the treatment group was additionally treated with modifiedXiaochengqi decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. The clinical curative effect, and the symptoms in both groups were observed. The serum motilin and gastrin concentration were measured by radio-immunity, the preprandial and postprandial electrogastrography was performed.Results The total effective rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (72.5%vs. 31.7%;χ2=11.911,P=0.000). The serum levels of motilin (treatment group: 532.8±16.7 ng/Lvs. 355.2±14.3 ng/L,t=51.089,P=0.000; control group: 505.1 ± 21.3 ng/Lvs. 372.9 ± 18.4 ng/L,t=30.074,P=0.000) and gastrin (treatment group: 69.8 ± 15.3 ng/Lvs. 54.3 ± 13.8 ng/L, t=4.758,P=0.000; control group: 62.6 ± 14.2 ng/Lvs. 53.4 ± 12.3 ng/L,t=3.136,P=0.002) were significantly reduced, and their decrease in the treatment group were greater than those in the control group (t values were 6.503, 2.196, allP<0.05). After the treatment, the dominant power (preprandial period: 84.5 ± 14.8μVvs. 72.3 ± 15.0μV, t=3.684,P<0.01; postprandial period: 100.5 ± 17.3μVvs.89.3 ± 15.9μV,t=5.713,P=0.000) and dominant frequency (preprandial period: 4.3 ± 0.4 cpmvs. 3.9 ± 0.2 cpm,t=3.035,P=0.000; postprandial period: 4.7 ± 0.5 cpmvs. 4.4 ± 0.5 cpm,t=2.700,P=0.000) were significantly higher, while the percentage of bradygastria (preprandial period: 50.6% ± 16.6%vs. 60.1% ± 16.3%,t=2.599,P=0.000;postprandial period: 36.6% ± 14.8%vs. 57.4% ± 15.3%,t=6.217, P=0.000) was significantly lower in the treatment group compared with the control group at preprandial and postprandial periods.ConclusionXiaochengqi decoction can obviously promote the gastric motility, and reduce the serum levels of motilin and gastrin in patients with GS.

Objective To explore the effects of sertraline combined with attribution retraining in post-stroke depression and recovery of neurological function.Methods A total of seventy-eight patients with post-stroke depression were randomly divided into research group and control group.The research group was treated by sertraline combined with attribution retraining and the control group was treated by sertraline only for 8 weeks.Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and recovery of neurological functions using the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at baseline and at the end of the 24,44,64 and 84 week.Results Repeated measure ANOVA for the total scores of HAMD showed that the main effect of time,the main effect of group and the interactive effect of time and group were significant (P<0.05).Total scores of HAMD in the research group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the end of the 2nd,44,64 and 84 week [(18.25±4.27) vs.(20.81±4.63),(15.94±3.47)vs.(18.12±4.51),(12.85±3.12) vs.(16.54±3.70),(10.42±3.66) vs.(13.09±3.59),P<0.05].HAMD Total scores in two groups were showed significantly decreased on each time point after treatment (P<0.01).Effective rates (using reduction rate of HAMD total scores as evaluation) were more significant in the research group than those in the control group at the end of the 8th week (77.5% vs.52.6%,P<0.05).The repeated measure ANOVA showed that the main effect of time in NIHSS total scores was significant (P<0.01).The main effect of group and the interactive effect of time and group in NIHSS total scores were not significant (P>0.05).Total scores of NIHSS in two groups significantly decreased on each time point after treatment (P<0.01).Conclusions Sertraline combined with attribution retraining can significantly relieve post-stroke depression and attribution training does not have obvious effects on the recovery of neurological function.

To investigate the seropharmacological action of Buyang Huanwu Decoction (BHD) on hypoxia induced apoptosis of cultured cortical neurons. Models of hypoxia induced neuron apoptosis were established by Daniel method. Neuron apoptotic rate was examined by propidium iodide staining method and flow cytometry, nitric oxide (NO) and malonyl dialdehyde (MDA) contents by spectrophotometer and bcl 2 gene expression by immunohistochemical method. Effects of BHD on neuron apoptotic rate, NO and MDA contents and bcl 2 gene expression were observed in normal group (Group A), model group (Group B), normal saline group (Group C) and high dosage, moderate dosage and low dosage BHD groups (Group D, Group E and Group F). BHD could inhibit the apoptosis of cultured cortical neurons, reduce the production of NO and MDA and promote the expression of bcl 2 gene.[Conclusion]BHD has an inhibitory effect on hypoxia induced apoptosis of cultured cortical neurons and its mechanism may be concerned with the reduction of NO and MDA production and the increase of bcl 2 gene expression.
