1.Analysis of the current situation of clinical nursing ward rounds
Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 1996;0(02):-
The paper first sums up the types of clinical nursing ward rounds and points out that at present two types play a dominant role in China, viz. the problem-based nursing ward round and the nursing procedure-oriented nursing ward round. Then it expounds the goal of clinical nursing ward rounds, introduces the forms, participants, and schedules of nursing ward rounds, and analyzes the major problems that currently exist in this aspect. The paper argues that it is imperative for the hospital to reinforce the management of nursing ward rounds and ensure that they are well planned and prepared and highly standardized and focused so as to improve their quality.

Objective To attempt using the synthetic poly-peptides in the carboxyl terminal of gp210 antigen as the substrate for anti-gp210 antibody detection and search for a simple assay method of detecting anti-gp210 antibody. Methods The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for anti-gp210 antibody detection was set-up by chessboard test. Anti-gp210 antibody was tested in the serum of both patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and the control group by ELISA and immuno-blotting. Results The working concentration of gp210's antigen was 5 μg/ml. The optical density higher than 0.61 (x+3s) was designated as the positive cutoff of anti-gp210 antibody. There was no statistical difference between the two assays (P=0.617). And there was very strongly positive correlation between them (P=0.000, r=0.868). Conclusion The sensitivity and specificity are basically consistent between the assays using synthetic poly-peptides of gp210 antigen and native antigen as the detecting substrates. The former substrate is preferred to be used for the testing of anti-gp210 antibody in clinical laboratories.

Objective To study the inhibitory effects of wild-type p53 on gastric cancer cell lines BGC-7901 and to explore the importance of wild-type p53 in gene therapy for gastric cancer. Methods Adenoviral vector with exogenous wild-type p53 gene was transfected into the gastric cancer cell line BGC-7901 which harbours a mutation in codon 204 of the p53 gene.The transfer efficiency and expression effect of p53 were examined by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. The growth of BGC-7901 cells in vitro was determined by cell counting and MTT assay. Flow cytometric analysis was used for observing cell cycle.Results Transfer efficiency reached 100% in BGC-7901 cells when adenovirus infection ability was over 100MOI. 3 days after transfection, the introduction of exogenous wild-type p53 into the tumor cells resulted in decreased expression of the protein of mutant p53 and increased level of mRNA of wild-type p53 gene. The growth of the BGC-7901 cells was significantly slower after transfection with wild-type p53 gene than that before transfection. The percentage of G 1/G 0 phase of the cells with exogenous wild-type p53 gene was much higher than that of the cells without exogenous wild-type p53 gene.It was 56 47% and 79 40% respectively(P

Anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) is the ciliary artery-circulatory disorders for the supply of optic nerve head area before the sieve plate prozone and sieve plate district, result in the insufficient blood supply of the optic nerve head and ischemia hypoxia, edema. Clinical manifestations of the type with non-artery inflammatory neuropathy and artery inflammatory neuropathy, which would both eventually lead to the irreversible damage to the optic nerve. In the early phase of AION, the main method is giving a glucocorticoids intravenous drip and a periglomerular injection (or retrobulbar injection) in time, but using the glucocorticoids for a long time or in quantity can cause a series of complications. Therefore, the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment of AION has become more and more significant in clinic.

Objective To investigate the correlation between histone deacetylase 9 gene ( HDAC9 ) single nucleotide polymorphisms and ischemic stroke ( IS) subtypes. Methods A total of 202 patients with IS were enrolled prospectively. According to the Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment ( TOAST) classification,the patients with IS were divided into large artery atherosclerotic stroke group (LAA,n=149) and the small-artery occlusive stroke group (SAO,n=53). A total of 201 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects over the same period were enrolled as the control group. Polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reaction ( PCR-LDR ) was used to perform genotyping for HDAC9 gene rs11984041 and rs2107595 loci in all subjects. The correlation between genotype and IS was analyzed with multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results ( 1 ) In all the subjects detected, the genotype detected from rs11984041 loci was type CC,and 3 genotypes including CC,CT,and TT were detected from rs2107595 loci. (2) There were significant differences in dominance model (CT+TT,CC) genotypes and allele frequencies among the LAA, SAO, and control group dominance model ( CT +TT, CC ) and (χ2 =8. 635,P=0. 013, χ2 =10. 309,P=0. 006);and there were no significant differences in dominance model (CT+TT,CC) and allele frequencies among the 3 groups (after adjustment all P>0. 017). Compared with the control group,there were significant differences in the CC,CT,and TT genotypes and allele frequencies in the LAA group (χ2 =7. 446;P=0. 006). In the dominance models (CT+TT),there was significant difference in genotype frequencies between the LAA group ( 65. 1%,97/149 ) and the control group (52. 2%,105/201) (χ2 =5. 800;P=0. 016). (3) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that in addition to gender,hypertension,smoking,and high level of low-density lipoprotein,the dominance model CT+TT genotype was associated with the LAA type IS ( CT+TT genotype:OR,1. 909,95% CI 1. 055-3. 454,P =0. 033). Conclusion In addition to the risk factors for cerebrovascular disease such as gender,hypertension,smoking,and high level of low-density lipoprotein,HDAC9 gene polymorphisms may be associated with the LAA type IS. rs2107595 locus CT + TT genotype may be an independent risk factor for LAA type IS.
