Objective To study the possibility of fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma diagnosed by ultrasonography,and the relationship between the fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma and family tuberous sclerosis. Methods High resolution ultrasonic equipment with fetal cardiac software was used. The main cross section of four chamber view was studied mainly. The location, the number of the tumor and the outflow tract of left and right ventricular cordis were scanned carefully, the maternal abdominal scan was performed as well. Results Five cases of fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma were found by routine prenatal ultrasonography, and were confirmed by autopsy. Among them, one case were associated with maternal tuberous sclerosis. Conclusions Fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma associated with tuberous sclerosis. Fetus with cardiac rhabdomyoma frequently die of cardiac failure; since the prognosis of the tuberous sclerosis with neural sclerosis was very poor, when the fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma was detected prenatally, the possibility of tuberous sclerosis should be considered, also relative examination must be performed to the mother to decrease the perinatal mortality.

Modern management is in essence management of people and the idea and strategy of humanistic management infiltrate into various management activities of a hospital. Our hospital has attempted to enhance the ideological quality and vocational level of the nursing staff by the theory of humanistic management. As a result of such measures as stimulating the nursing staff's thirst for knowledge, enlarging the scope of rewards, increasing the work pressure of young nurses in a proper way, providing room for the free development of head nurses, implementing dynamic management, and adopting democratic management with a high degree of openness, the ideological quality of the nurses has been greatly enhanced. At the same time, measures have been taken to ensure from 3 links that their vocational level keeps improving as well.

Objective To investigate the anticancer effects and molecular mechanism of betulinic acid (BA)on Raji cells in vitro.Methods The effects of BA on the growth of Raji cells were studied by MTT assay.Apoptosis was assessed by Annexin-V/PI double-labeled cytometry.The influence on cell cycle was studied by flow cytometer.The cyclin D3 mRNA expression was checked by Western blotting and RT-PCR techniques.Results BA showed obvious inhibition on proliferation,as well as induction potency of apoptosis on Raji cells in vitro in a time-and dose-dependent manner by Annexin-V/PI double-labeled method.With the IC_(50)value for 24 h being(39.44?0.65)?g/mL,Raji cells treated with BA showed ac- cumulation in G_0/G_1 phase and reduction in the percentage of cells in S phase.The cyclin D3 mRNA ex- pression and protein were sharply decreased in Raji cells treated with BA.Conclusion BA could inhibit the proliferation of Raji cells by regulating the cell cycle that arrests cells at G_0/G_1 phase and induces apop- tosis of Raji cells.The antitumor effects of BA may be related to down-regulation of the expression of cy- clin D3.

ObjectiveTo study the prevalence rate of post-stroke depression (PSD) of the elderly in the community and analyze risk factors of them. MethodsThe elders of the age of 60 or over were sampled as subjects from a community. Zung (SDS) was used as screening instruments and Hamilton rating scale for depression (HRSD-24) as evaluating scales. The prevalence rate of PSD was surveyed. A structured questionnaire was used and physical examination was carried out. Risk factors measured included baseline information, daily habits, and history of main diseases (hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction, and so on). The relationship between risk factors and PSD was analyzed.ResultsThe prevalence of PSD was 9.5%. The risk factors for PSD were life quality and age. ConclusionPost-stroke depression disturbs elder's health and rehabilitation. The prevalence rate and harm of PSD are higher than depression without stroke.

Medical Immunology is a multidisciplinary basic discipline,but its' abstract and complex leading most beginners daunting.Teachers should emphasize on ‘ transposition thinking' and stick the teaching concept of ‘ students-centered and teacher-guided learning' to the whole teaching process.Teacher should always make transposition thinking on how to stimulate students learning interest,how to guide students to learn autonomously,and how to make problem-based learning.This is important to build self-learning platform for the students and to achieve‘teaching' and ‘learning'win-win.

Objective:To explore the incidence,mortality,trends and time distribution of food poisoning in Hunan Province.Methods:The data on food poisoning was derived from the Information Office of Hunan Provincial Health Department.Using the trend-test and circular distribution methods,we have described the current situation of food poisoning and tested the central tendency of the peak time points and the peak time zone of food poisoning in Hunan from 2000 to 2009.Results:On average,the incidence of food poisoning in Hunan from 2000 to 2009 was 0.072 per 100000 population.And the average number of people affected in these incidents was 1.937 per 100000 population.There were no apparent trends in either the number of incidents or people affected between 2000 and 2009 (u=-0.98,P>0.05; u=-1.34,P>0.05,respectively).The average mortality was 0.015 per 100000 population.The trend-test indicated that the average annual mortality decreased significantly from 2000 to 2009 (u=-1.72,P<0.05).Meanwhile the average annual fatality rate was 0.77%.The trend-test revealed statistically significant differences for the average annual fatality rate (u=-1.88,P<0.05).The circular distribution analysis showed that there was a central tendency of the distribution of food poisoning cases,with the average peak time atAugust 28th and the average peak time zone from June 7th to November 18th for food poisoning from 2000 to 2008.Conclusion:From 2000 to 2009,there is a significant tendency in the average annual mortality and fatality rate of food poisoning in Hunan.Summer and fall are the high seasons for food poisoning.We should pay attention to the peak time zone,especially the peak time point of food poisoning for food safety monitoring,and strengthen the prevention and control on food poisoning.

Objective To investigate the influence of Wnt-3a signaling on aggregative growth of dermal papilla cells.Methods Recombinant adenovirus pAdEasy-1/Wnt-3a was constructed at first,and used to transfect cultured dermal papilla cells(DPCs).Then,the growth pattem of DPCs was observed by inverse microscopy;laser confocal microscopy and Western blot were utilized to detect the expressions of Wnt-3a,β-catenin and versican in low-passage DPCs,high-passage DPCs and transfected high-passage DPCs.Results The over-expression of Wnt-3a protein could effectively induce the aggregative growth of DPCs.Laser confocal microscopy showed that the fluorescence intensity of β-catenin and versican increased from 34.16±9.62 and 18.81±9.59 in high-passage DPCs to 87.35±17.28 and 92.18±18.39 in transfected high-passage DPCs(t=11.98,17.88,both P<0.0 1),respectively.Also,Western blot proved a significant increase of expression intensity of β-catenin(15.27±2.17 vs 60.09±7.24,t=10.10,P<0.01)and versican(19.32±2.46 vs 58.46±2.78,t=20.63,P<0.01)in transfected high-passage DPCs compared with untransfected high-passage DPCS.ConclusionsWnt-3a signaling plays an important role in modulating aggregative growth of DPCs,which is mainly through the classical pathway with β-catenin as the key protein.As an important downstream gene of Wnt signaling,vesican is an indispensable part for the modulation of aggregative growth of DPCs.

Objective To study the effect of whole-process nursing intervention on comfort of patients undergoing radial artery puncture. Methods 100 patients with radial artery puncture from July, 2007 to June, 2008 were divided into the control group and the experimental group with 50 cases in each group accord-ing to time sequence. Routine whole nursing mode was used in the control group, the whole-process nursing intervention mode based upon routine nursing mode under the instruction of evidence-based method was used in the experimental group. Pain, psychological tensity, body numbness, success rate of radial artery puncture, patients' satisfaction degree were compared between the two groups. Results Every indexes of the experi-mental group were better than those of the control group. Conclusions The whole-process nursing interven-tion mode can promote the comfort degree of patients undergoing radial artery puncture.
