Differences are existed in two textbooks of doctor-patient communication between China and foreign countries concerning perspectives of doctor-patient communication,teaching goals and applicable scope based on the consensus on importance of doctor-patient communication and education training.Contents in textbooks of china emphasize the logic of discipline while that of foreign countries pay attention to the logic of clinical treatment.The advantages of textbooks of China are having strong theoretical basis and ample contents while those of foreign text books are practicability and effectiveness.Some suggestions which to benefit the textbook development of Chinese doctor-patient communication has been offered:textbooks of doctor-patient communication in our country should be separated from those of nursing communication; advantages and experiences of foreign textbooks should be drew from; in-depth development of doctor-patient communication theory research and education reform should be conducted; diversification of teaching materials of doctor-patient communication should be gradually perfected ; teaching quality of doctor-patient communication should be improved.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of intramedullary nailing combined with bone cement in repair of segmental bone defects after tumor resection.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 5 patients with malignant bone tumor who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedics, Qiannan People's Hospital from April 2018 to September 2019 for remaining segmental bone defects following limb salvage surgery. They were 4 males and one female, aged from 11 to 55 years (average, 35.4 years). Their defects ranged from 6 to 21 cm (average, 12.3 cm) after tumor resection. By the Karnofsky performance score (KPS) for long-term quality of life, all of them scored less than 50 points. Of them, 3 were treated by interlocking intramedullary nails and bone cement filling, and 2 by elastic intramedullary nails and bone cement filling. In the 2 cases with defects of 21 cm and 13 cm, the fixation was assisted by a plate and an external fixator. Defect length after resection, operation time and intraoperative bleeding were recorded; the efficacy was evaluated by the Enneking functional evaluation of reconstructive procedures after surgical treatment of tumors of the musculoskeletal system, visual analogue scale (VAS), and KPS.Results:All the 5 patients had uneventful surgery, with operation time ranging from 112 to 225 min (average, 154.2 min), intraoperative bleeding from 300 to 500 mL (average, 382 mL), and defect length after resection from 6 to 21 cm. The 5 patients were followed up for 6 to 28 months. Of them, 2 died of disease progression 6 and 7 months after surgery, respectively. According to the Enneking's evaluation, one patient scored 28 points, 2 patients 23 points and 2 patients 21 points, giving a high degree of satisfaction. Their VAS scores 6 months after surgery ranged from 1 to 6, averaging 3.6; their postoperative KPS scores ranged from 60 to 80, averaging 72.Conclusion:In repair of segmental bone defects after tumor resection, intramedullary nailing combined with bone cement filling can relieve pain of patients and lead to satisfactory short-term curative efficacy.

Objective To reverse P-glycoprotein-mediated muhiple drug resistance using RNA interference(RNAi)in cultured rat astrocytes.Methods Astroeytes overexpressing P-glyeoprotein induced by coriaria lactone were transfected with the short-hairpin RNA expression vector-p-SIREN shuttle designed to target Mdrl mRNA.The mRNA level of Mdrl gene was evaluated by real-time PCR;the P-glycoprotein was examined by immunocytochemistry and image analysis,meanwhile the rhodamine efflux was assessed by flow cytometry.Results The astrocyte model overexpressing P-glycoprotein were established and successfully transfected with the short-hairpin RNA expression vector-p-SIREN shuttle.The mRNA level of Mdrl gene was knocked down by 67.70%(P

Purpose:To study the clinical significance of CD44 level in tumor cells of esophageal carcinoma patients. Methods:Sixty-five esophageal carcinoma cases were examined to observe the CD44 expression rate in tumor cells and nor- mal mucosal cells by flow cytometry.These data were clinicopathologically analyzed and compared with statistical methods. Results:The CD44 expression rate in tumors cells of esophageal carcinoma was obviously higher than that in normal mucosal cells (P

The tandem expression vector can effectively increase the expression level and structure stability of the target peptides(protein)with small size of molecular,and avoid toxicity towards host cell from some toxic peptides product,therefore,this approach is widely applied in biotechnology.The four construction methods of tandem expression plasmid including asymmetric and complementary cohesive ends,directional adapter,isocaudarners,and tandem expression cassette were reviewed in terms of protocol,characteristic and applicable field.In addition,selection principles from various construction methods of tandem plasmid were reviewed in terms of efficiency,accuracy and product cleavage.

Using the Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus as the indictor bacterium,fourteen antibacterial strains were initially obtained by the bilayer-media screening method from the raw milk samples,and one isolate was found to exhibit the higher antibacterial activity against the indicator. This isolate was further studied on its individual and cultural morphology features,partial physiological and biochemical reaction activities,G+C content,the sequence features of the 16S rDNA and the species-specific N-acetylmuraminidase gene(acmA) ,consequently,it was identified as the Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis strain,named as MB191. An evaluation of the antimicrobial spectra of MB191 was subsequently performed,it showed the remarkable activities against not only the tested Gram-positive bacteria,but also several Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas syringae and P. fluorescens,as well as the yeast Debaryomyces hansenii,which was a distinctive feature that was not reported prior to this study.

Objectives To summarize the characteristics,differential diagnosis and management of incomplete 17 alpha-hydroxylase/17,20-1yase deficiency(17 OHD)of Chinese patients.Methods Six cases of incomplete 17 OHD from Peking Union Medical College Hospital were studied retrospectively through analyzing their clinical data,and the molecular pathogenic mechanism was discussed after literature review.Results Four cases of 46,XX incomplete 17 OHD were reported.The clinical characteristics included female phenotype,various degrees of breast development and absent or sparse axillary/pubic hair, oligomenorrhea or secondary amenorrhea,recurrent luteinized ovarian cysts,hypogonadism with persistent hyperprogesteronemia or high serum 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone level,with or without hypokalemic hypertension.There were also 2 cases of 46,XY incomplete 17 OHD,in which ambiguous genitalia were present besides hypokalemic hypertension.Conclusions Incomplete 17 OHD is a very rare form of congenital enzymatic deficiencies of steroid synthesis,which should be included in the differential diagnosis when there are menstrual disorders,sexual infantilism,recurrent ovarian cysts or ambiguous genitalia.Under such circumstances,hyperprogesteronemia offers a valuable clue for further investigation.

Objective To investigate clinical significance of computed tomography (CT) scan in diagnosis of bronchial foreign body in children.Methods Twenty-one suspected children with bronchial foreign body were studied with spiral CT cross-section scan and coronal reconstruction and diagnosis was confirmed with bronchoscopy.Results The foreign body was displayed in all of 21 cases. CT scan showed foreign body was located in right main bronchial 12 cases, right middle bronchial 1 case, right inferior lobar bronchial 2 cases and left main bronchial 6 cases. Foreign bodies were extracted with bronchoscopy.Conclusion CT scan can display and locate accurately foreign body in bronchial of children,and has very important diagnostic value in patients having atypical histories, clinical and radiological findings.
