Methods We selected 180 senior patients who received the questionnaires concerning treatment compliance and the assessment of nursing satisfaction before and after our nursing intervention. Treatment compliance and the assessment of nursing satisfaction were compared. Results After the implementation of community nursing intervention, the senior patients could take medicines punctually and check up regularly. They could also know to control their emotion, take healthy diet, quit cigarette and alcohol and take adequate exercise according to our instruction. Meanwhile, the patients had higher level nursing satisfaction after the intervention. The comparison had statistical significance (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusion Community nursing intervention could change and improve treatment compliance of senior patients actively. As a result, both the patients' quality of life and our nursing satisfaction were improved.

Objective To observe the anesthetic effect of laryngeal mask general anesthesia combined with abdominal"loop anesthesia"block in laparoscopic resection of colon cancer.Methods A total of 60 patients who underwent laparoscopic resection of colon cancer in the Third Hospital of Xiamen from January 2022 to March 2023 were selected.According to random number table method,they were divided into L group(laryngeal mask general anesthesia,30 cases)and U group(laryngeal mask general anesthesia combined with abdominal"loop anesthesia"block,30 cases).The dosage of propofol and remifentanil for anesthesia maintenance,time to completion of surgery,visual analogue scale(VAS)score after consciousness and sufentanil dosage were recorded and compared between two groups.The satisfaction of analgesia 12h after surgery was compared between two groups.Results There were no significant differences in gender,age,body mass,height and operation time between two groups(P>0.05).The total dosage of remifentanil and propofol in U group was significantly lower than that in L group(P<0.001).The VAS score in the anesthesia recovery room of U group was significantly lower than that of L group,and the dosage of sufentanil was significantly lower than that of L group(P<0.001).The satisfaction of analgesia in U group was significantly higher than that in L group(χ2=6.772,P=0.031).Conclusion Compared with laryngeal mask general anesthesia,laryngeal mask general anesthesia combined with abdominal"loop anesthesia"block can reduce the amount of anesthesia maintenance drugs in laparoscopic colon cancer resection,reduce the amount of sufentanil in the anesthesia recovery room,and improve the satisfaction of postoperative analgesia.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of C-type lectin domain family 4 member G ( CLEC4 G) in liver disease tissues and its correlation with the clinicopathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Methods:The cancer tissue and the corresponding adjacent tissues (at least 2 cm from the edge of the cancer tissue), cut in surgeries from January to December in 2019, of 40 HCC patients in Zhuzhou Central Hospital, as well as 10 normal liver tissue samples (seen as far away as possible from the edge of the cancer tissue with naked eyes) and 10 liver cirrhosis samples were analyzed retrospectively. The tumor genome atlas (TCGA) database was used to screen the HCC transcriptome data sets, and bioinformatics methods were used to make expression heat maps and box maps which can help analyze the difference of CLEC4 G in cancer and adjacent tissues. The mRNA expression level of CLEC4 G was detected by conducting real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR), and the protein expression level of CLEC4G was detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD). Group t test was used for inter-group comparison. The counting information was expressed as a percentage (%). The χ2 test was adopted to analyze the correlation between CLEC4 G expression level and the clinicopathological features of patients. Results:The expression level of CLEC4 G in cancer tissues was significantly decreased in heat map compared with that in adjacent tissues. In the box figure, the relative expression of CLEC4 G mRNA in the cancer tissues was (82.5±18.9) and (3 354.4±296.2) in paracancer tissues, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.001). Respectively, qRT-PCR and IHC showed that mRNA of CLEC4 G were abundant in normal liver tissues (3 301.3±286.4), while they were very little in liver cancer tissues (63.6±32.9), significantly decreasing in liver cirrhosis (1 742.6±208.7) and paracancer tissues (1 553.2±249.9), with statistically significant difference ( P<0.001). Moreover, low CLEC4 G expression level was associated with tumor vascular metastasis in HCC patients. Conclusions:CLEC4 G is highly expressed in normal liver tissue, but with the progression of malignant liver disease, it is significantly decreased with little expression in HCC tissue. It can be expected to be a good marker for the pathological diagnosis of HCC.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic significance of the lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma(UTUC) after radical nephoureterectomy (RNU) and Gemcitabine and Cisplatin combination Chemotherapy (GC).Methods:The clinical data of 95 patients with UTUC admitted to Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2013 to March 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 50 males and 45 females; the average age was 63 years, ranged from 36 to 81 years. According to the situation of LVI, they were divided into LVI positive group ( n=25) and LVI negative group ( n=70). Chi-square test was used to analyze the clinicopathological parameters of the two groups of patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curves of the overall survival (OS) time and recurrence-free survival (RFS) time of the two groups of patients. The difference between the two groups was used Log-Rank test. The risk factors related to OS and RFS were evaluated using univariate and multivariate Cox regression models. Results:All patients were followed up for 2-82 months, with an average follow-up time of 36 months. Among them, 20(21.1%) died and 36(37.9%) relapsed. There were significant differences in T stage ( P=0.046), lymph node metastasis ( P=0.032), and tumor location ( P=0.019) between LVI negative group and LVI negative group. Univariate analysis showed that hydronephrosis ( P=0.026), lymph node metastasis( P=0.001), LVI ( P=0.001), chemotherapy cycle ( P=0.045) were correlated with OS; hydronephrosis ( P=0.031), tumor T stage ( P=0.013), lymph node metastasis ( P=0.004), LVI ( P=0.001) were significantly correlated with RFS. Multivariate analysis showed that hydronephrosis ( P=0.016), lymph node metastasis ( P=0.016), and LVI( P=0.003) were significantly correlated with OS. Lymph node metastasis ( P=0.018), LVI ( P=0.003) were significantly correlated with RFS. In conclusion, LVI was an independent risk factor for OS and RFS. The OS [(40.7±6.5) months for LVI positive group, (68.5±3.2) months for LVI negative group, χ2=15.750, P<0.001] and RFS [(31.0±5.7) months for LVI positive group, (58.0±8.8) months for LVI negative group, χ2=10.986, P=0.001] of patients with LVI positive group were worse than those with LVI negative group, the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions:LVI is more likely to be possitive in patients with high T stage, lymph node metastasis and single renal pelvis cancer, which provides a basis for risk stratification of patients with UTUC. After radical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy, the benefit of OS and RFS in patients with positive LVI was significantly worse than that in patients with negative LVI.
