Chinese Journal of Medical Science Research Management 2016;29(6):420-423,429
Objective To understand the status quo of continuing medical education in different levels of hospitals in primary health technical personnel,and provide suggestions for the development of continuing medical education.Methods Questionnaire survey,Statistical analysis and Interview.Results Health technical personne of medical institutions at all levels in primary health technical personnel were generally more emphasis on continuing medical education,but the management system,input and the need are different in the different levels of hospital.Continuing medical education in the basic level hospitals is much lower than the high level hospitals.Conclusions We should strengthen the transformation of continuing education mode,put forward the practical development strategy,improve the level of medical education,and narrow the gap between different levels of hospitals,so as to achieve the purpose of common progress.

Journal of International Oncology 2017;44(5):346-350
Objective To study the expressions and prognostic significance of high mobility group protein A1 (HMGA1) and high mobility group protein A.2 (HMGA2) in pancreatic carcinoma.Methods The expressions of HMGA1 and HMGA2 were examined by immunohistochemical SP method in 60 cases of pancreatic carcinoma and 30 cases of normal pancreatic tissues.The relationship between the expression and prognosis was also analyzed.Results The expressions of HMGA1 and HMGA2 in pancreatic carcinoma were significantly higher than those in normal tissues,and the positive expression rates were 70.0% vs.6.7% (x2 =32.105,P =0.000) and 73.3% vs.3.3% (x2 =39.200,P =0.000).The expression of HMGA1 in pancreatic carcinoma was correlated with histological grade (x2 =6.774,P =0.034),TNM stage (x2 =4.776,P =0.029) and lymphatic metastasis (x2 =12.614,P =0.000).The expression of HMGA2 in pancreatic carcinoma was correlated with histological grade (x2 =8.200,P =0.017) and TNM stage (x2 =7.253,P =0.007).The expression of HMGA1 was positively associated with HMGA2 expression (r =0.393,P =0.001).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the median survival time of HMGA1 and HMGA2 positive patients were shorter than those patients with HMGA1 negative and HMGA2 negative (14.0 months vs.24.0 months,x2 =14.568,P =0.000;15.0 months vs.21.0 months,x2 =7.270,P =0.007).Conclusion HMGA1 and HMGA2 are highly expressed in pancreatic carcinoma,and play synergistic roles in the generation and progress of pancreatic carcinoma.There is certain value of combined detection of HMGA1 and HMGA2 to predict the prognosis of pancreatic carcinoma.

Not only calmodulin (CAM) with Ca2+ regulates the activity of many enzymes and proteins, but also free-CaM (no Ca2+bound) and Ca2+-independent CaM-binding proteins play roles in plant and animal cells. There is no in vivo method to identify the interaction between free-CaM and Ca2+-independent CaM-binding protein (CaMBP). Using site-directed mutagenesis by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), 5 mutant Arabidopsis calmodulin isoform 2 (AtCaM2) genes, mCaM21, mCoM212,mCaM2123, mCaM2124 and mCaM21234 were obtained. The mutant mCaM2 encoded glutamine in place of glutamate (E32Q; E68Q; E105Q; E141Q) in one or more EF-hand Ca2+-binding motifs of AtCaM2. The recombinant mCaM2 proteins were produced in Escherichia coli, and subsequently separated on SDS-PAGE in the presence of Ca2+ or EGTA, their electrophoresis mobilities were related with that of mutant EF-hand motifs. 45Ca2+ overlay analysis indicated that the more glutamate replaced by glutamine, the lower affinity with Ca2+ in the mCaM2 proteins. The mCaM21234 mutant protein (E32Q; E68Q; E105Q;E141Q) was unable to bind Ca2+. Using yeast two-hybrid technique with mCaM21234 as bait, it was possible to see interaction in Arabidopsis of AtCaM2 with IQD26, a calcium-independent CaM-binding protein. Site-directed mutation of AtCaM2 will aid the research of Ca2+, CaM and Ca2+-independent CaMBPs in plant biological processes.

AIM To study the effect of lidamycin on the expression of genes involved in invasion regulation in HCT-8 human colon cancer cells. METHODS HCT-8 human colon cancer cells were treated with lidamycin (10 nmol*L-1) for 8 h. The effect of lidamycin on the expression of genes were detected by cDNA arrays, Northern blot and RT-PCR. RESULTS Hybridization of the entire cDNA populations to Atlas Arrays showed that lidamycin down-regulated the expression level of MMP-9 and up-regulated the expression level of TIMP-1. These changes were confirmed by Northern blot and RT-PCR. CONCLUSION The results indicate that lidamycin may exhibit its anti-invasive activity by inhibitting the production of type IV collagenase whilst enhancing the production of tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase.

Objective To investigate the main predisposing factors of hematoma enlargement in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage,reduce the early mortality,and improve clinical outcomes.Methods By a retrospective study of 268 patients,all patients underwent their first computed tomography (CT)scan within 24 hours of arrival and a second CT scan within 72 hours of admission.These predisposing factors were analyzed by means of univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses.Results The patients occurred early hematoma enlargement were accounted for 27.99% (75/268).Univariate analyses indicated that hematoma shape,midline shift,breaking into the ventricle,thrombin clotting time (TT),white blood cells,neutrophil percentage,serum creatinine,fasting plasma glucose (FPG),and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) were significantly different between the patients with or without hematoma enlargement (P <0.05).Furthermore,multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the following four factors were independently associated with hematoma enlargement:the midline shift [OR (95% CI) =3.356 (1.251-8.999),P =0.000],the GCS score [OR (95 % CI) =0.745 (0.671-0.827),P =0.023],the FPG [OR (95% CI) =3.022 (1.232-7.408),P =0.016],and the breaking into the ventricles [OR (95% CI) =2.851(1.158-7.019),P =0.005].Conclusions The midline shift of brain CT scan,the GCS score,the FPG,and the breaking into the ventricles maybe the independent predisposing factors of hematoma enlargement.Therefore,timely review of CT scan and dynamic monitoring of peripheral blood biochemical indicators should be very important for further therapy.
10.Effect of triiodothy ronine on neurogenesis in subventricular zone after bilateral common carotid artery occlusion in adult rats
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2011;19(8):589-592
Objective To investigate the effect of triiodothyronine (T3) on neurogenesis in after bilateral common carotid artery occlusion in adult rats. Methods Fifteen adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham operation, 2-vessel occlusion (2VO) and T3 intervention groups (n = 5 in each group ). A chronic cerebral ischemia model was established by the bilateral common carotid artery permanent ligation. Seven days after modeling 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) was injectied intraperitoneally and the new proliferating cells were labeled. The BrdU positive cells in SVZ were observed using immunofluorescence staining.Results The numbers of BrdU positive cells in the sham operation, 2VO, and T3 intervention groups were 174. 8 ± 18. 5, 325.0 ± 51.0, and 499. 4 ± 30. 8, respectively. There were significant differences among all the groups (F = 101.68, P < 0. 001 ). The numbers of BrdU positive cells in the T3 intervention group were significantly higher than those in the 2VO and sham operation groups (all P <0. 001 ). The numbers of BrdU positive cells in the 2VO group were also significantly higher than those in the sham operation group (p <0. 001). Conclusions Thyroid hormones may promote neural progenitor cell proliferation in SVZ in adult 2VO rats.
