Objective To investigate the correlation between IL‐6 ,hs‐CRP and blood lipids ,blood glucose in type 2 diabetes mel‐litus(T2DM) patients complicated with coronary heart disease .Methods 64 outpatients first diagnosed T2DM complicated with coronary heart disease were selected ,56 T2DM patients and 58 health examination were as compare from 2014 January to November in my courtyard .Interleukin‐6(IL‐6) ,high sensitivity C reactive protein(hs‐CRP) and total cholesterol(TC) ,low density lipopro‐tein‐C(LDL‐C) ,blood glucose and HbA1c were detected in 3 groups of person .Results T2DM group and T2DM complicated with coronary heart disease with fasting glucose ,HbA1c ,TC and LDL‐C was significantly higher than normal group ,the difference was statistically significant(P<0 .05);The level of IL‐6 ,hs‐CRP in patients T2DM with coronary heart disease complicated was signifi‐cantly higher than that of T2DM group ,and T2DM group was higher than that of healthy group ,the differences were statistically significant(P<0 .05) .Conclusion IL‐6 and hs‐CRP can be as a specific index to predict the disease process of T2DM complicated with coronary heart disease .

The cloning and identification of frc gene from Oxalobacter formigenes in the intestines of Chinese people were conducted. The genomic DNA of Oxalobacter formigenes was extracted. frc gene fragment was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and linked with pEGFP-C1. The recombinant plasmid was designated pEGFP-frc and was identified by restriction-enzyme digestion and sequencing. Human embryo kidney 293 cells were transfected with pEGFP-frc, then RT-PCR and Western blotting were performed to detect the expression of frc gene. The length of frc gene was found to be 1287 bp, and the homology of nucleotides and amino-acid residue with the sequence in GenBank was 95.88% and 99.07%. Bright green fluorescent light could be observed in 293 cells transfected with the pEGFP-frc. frc mRNA and fusion protein FCoAT-EGFP were detected in the cells. It is concluded that frc gene cloned from the Oxalobacter formigenes in the intestines of Chinese people can be expressed in eucaryotic 293 cells and keep its enzyme activity.

Summary: This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of local litholytic irrigation (LLI) in the treatment of ureteral uric acid calculi. Fourteen cases of ureteral uric acid calculi were diagnosed by abdominal plain radiography (KUB),retrograde urography,ultrasonography(B-mode ultrasound),spiral computerized tomography(CT) and blood biochemical examinations. A ureteral catheter was passed retrogradely across ureteral calculi by cystoscopy. LLI with tromethamine-E(THAM-E) was performed via the ureteral catheter after the improvement of renal function and general situation and the control of urinary tract infection under the condition of intravenous application of antibiotics. The irrigation rate varied from 1000 to 1500 ml per day. Retrograde pyelography demonstrated complete dissolution of all the stones,13 cases within 10 days and 1 within 12 days. Mild hematuria was observed in the majority of the cases and temporary aggravated lumbago in 1 case,with no other side effects. It is concluded that LLI is a practical and effective method in the treatment of ureteral uric acid calculi for its advantages of shorter duration,lower cost,less physical suffering and no severe complications.

Objective:To systematically describe and analyze the related factors of self-compassion in cancer patients.Methods:Observational studies on factors related to self-compassion in cancer patients were retrieved through computer on PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, China Biomedical Literature Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and WanFang Data. The search period was from the establishment of the database to July 2022. Two researchers independently screened the article, extracted data, and evaluated the quality of the article based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Meta-analysis of related factors was conducted using Stata 15.1 software.Results:A total of 20 articles were included. Meta-analysis results showed that self-compassion was positively correlated with age, education level, and psychological resilience, while negatively correlated with body image, anxiety, depression, and pressure. The related factors for self-compassion in cancer patients included individual factors (such as gender, age, educational level, anxiety, depression, attachment type, body image and psychological resilience) , disease factors (treatment methods) , and environmental factors (marital status, social support, place of birth) .Conclusions:There are many factors related to self-compassion in cancer patients. Medical and nursing staff can identify low-level self-compassion patients in the early stage based on related factors and carry out intervention to promote positive clinical outcomes for patients.
