ObjectiveTo investigate and analyze the factors affecting the quality of life of patients with gastric cancer after surgery. Methods120 cases of gastric cancer patients undergoing resection of gastric cancer from March 2009 to March 2010 in our hospital were chosen as the research object.100 cases of non-cancer patients with similar general information and without factors affecting quality of life at the same period were chosen as the control group.Quality of Life Questionnaire of Stomach 22 (QLQ-STO22) were used to investigated the quality of life of patients in the two groups.The factors affecting the quality of life for patients with gastric cancer were analyzed.Countermeasures to increase the quality of life of cancer patients were explored according to factors affecting the quality of life. ResultsThe study showed that quality of life of gastric cancer patients was significantly lower than the control group.The differences were significant.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender,age,personality,education degree,family economic status,cancer disease were the main factors affecting their quality of life. ConclusionsIn clinical care of patients with gastric cancer,the medical staff should take appropriate psychological care and health education based on individual circumstances of patients,try to eliminate the adverse fractors of patients in psychology,cognition and thought in order to enhance the quality of life of patients after surgery.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy and safety of levetiracetam add-on therapy in the treatment of elderly epileptic patients. METHODS:Totally 88 elderly epileptic patients in Chongqing Yunyang County Hospital of TCM during Jan. 2014-Jan. 2016 were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table,with 44 cases in each group. Control group was given routine antiepileptic therapy of carbamazepine+phenobarbital;observation group was additionally given Levetiracetam tablet with initial dose of 0.25g,increasing to 0.5 g according to disease condition,bid,on the basis of con-trol group. Treatment courses of 2 groups lasted for 6 months. Clinical efficacies,GCS score,Barthel index score,MoCA score and the occurrence of ADR were observed in 2 groups. RESULTS:Total response rate,control rate and MoCA score of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). GCS and Barthel index score of 2 group after treatment were significantly higher than before treatment,and those 2 scores of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLU-SIONS:Levetiracetam add-on therapy is better than routine therapy plan in the treatment of elderly epilepsy,and significantly re-duce coma degree,increase daily living ability and cognitive function with good safety.

Objective To establish the quality standard for Yuyuan Mingmu Granula. Methods Radix Et Rhizoma Notoginseng,Fructus Schisanrae Chinesis,Flos Scophorae and Fructus Forsythiae were identified by TLC. The content of loganin was determined by HPLC. Results Under the selected conditions,clear and specific spots were obtained. For content determination,the linear range of loganin was 0.084 ?g～0.840 ?g,r=0.999 9,the average recovery was 98.5 %(n=6)and RSD was 1.29 %. ConcLusion The method is proved to be simple and specialized with a good reproductivity and can be used to control the quality of Yuyuan Mingmu Granula.

Objective:To improve the quality standard for Mahuangzhisou capsules. Methods:A TLC method was used to identi-fy five components including Asari Radix Et Rhizoma, Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus, Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus, Platycodonis Radix and Citri Exocarpium Rubrum in the capsules. An HPLC method was used to determine the content of Citri Exocarpium Rubrum. Re-sults:The TLC identification method for Asari Radix Et Rhizoma, Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus, Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus, Platyc-odonis Radix and Citri Exocarpium Rubrum was established without any interference. The HPLC method for the determination of Citri Exocarpium Rubrum was established, and the linear concentration of hesperidin was 3.03-302.80 μg·ml-1(r=0.999 9), and the average recovery was 99. 80%(RSD=0. 49%,n=9). Conclusion:The new quality standard is simple and accurate, which can effec-tively control the quality of the preparation.

Diabetes mellitus has become one of the diseases which threaten the heath of human being in the 21st century.A goal of research in diabetes is to find a way to increase the number of functional insulin-producing cells. Islet transplantation has been considered to be the most effective approach to cure type Ⅰ and part of type Ⅱ diabetes mellitus.This approach, however, is severely limited by an inadequate supply of donor islets available for transplantation.Moreover, recent progress of stem cells research has shown that stem cells may act as a new source of islet transplantation in diabetes mellitus treatment. Recent evidence indicates that Glucagon-Like PeptideⅠ(GLP-1) plays a very important role in targeted differentiation of stem cells into Insulin-Producing Cells and pancreatic development. GLP-1 is an intestine-derived insulinotropic hormone that stimulates glucose dependent insulin production and secretion. GLP-1 can induce differentiation of stem cells into insulin-producing cells, which is achieved by up regulation of PDX-1 expression.PDX-1 is a transcription factor critical for pancreatic development and endocrine cell neogenesis and a marker for pancreatic stem cells. These new findings suggest an approach to create Insulin-Producing cells in vitro by expanding stem/progenitor cells and then to convert them into Insulin-Producing cells by treatment with GLP-1. Thus GLP-1 may be a means by which to create Insulin-Producing cells ex vivo for transplantation into patients with insulinopenic type Ⅰ diabetes and severe forms of type Ⅱ diabetes. This article reviews recent progress about GLP-1 and targeted differentiation of stem cells induced by GLP-1.

Objective: To describe the status of the basic public health service in township health centers, analyze the resource allocation which influences the supply of basic public health service. Methods: The data is based on monitoring project surveys collected by the health statistical information center, Spss13.0 and Excellare applied to make descriptive statistic analysis. Results:Overall, basic public health service has been carried out well in each area, but there are differences among the application rates of different basic public health service items; basic public health service can be effected by the level of basic public health input and the number of public health workers.

Retinoic acid (RA) receptor, is a group of ligand-regulated nuclear transcription factors and widely distributed in various tissue cells. The different subtypes of RA receptor can polymerize into homologous or heterogenous dimmers, and then participate in the physiological and pathological processes of embryonic development, cell proliferation and differentiation, and apoptosis. However, the relationship between the expression of RA receptor and the diseases is different in diverse cells or tissues. Recent researches demonstrated that RA receptor is closely related to the pathogenesis and development of renal diseases. This article aims to review the role of the RA receptor and its signal pathway in the development of renal diseases.
