Different diagnostic criteria are existed nowadays in grading the dysplasia of gastric mucosa in clinical practice. Novel endoscopic techniques and molecular markers could facilitate the pathologic grading of dysplasia. As to the treatment strategy,it is debatable whether to choose endoscopic dissection or conservative follow-up. Here,we reviewed the diagnostic grading and therapeutic options with regard to the dysplasia of gastric mucosa.

Objective To clarify the mechanism of lipoprotein (a) ［Lp (a)］ metabolic disorder in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis (MHD), and to offer theoretical basis for seeking for modus operandi of disorder control.Methods The apolipoprotein (a)［apo(a)］ isoforms were identified by high-resolution SDS-agarose gel electrophoretic method followed by immunobloting in 61 patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis (MHD group), 51 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD group) and 62 healthy controls (healthy control group). The influential factors for elevated serum level of lipoprotein (a) in MHD group were analyzed by applying statistical method.Results No statistical difference of Lp (a) median level was found between MHD group and ESRD group in LWM isoforms, but their level was significantly higher than that of healthy control group. In MHD group, the concentrations of serum creatine(Crea),cystatin C(CysC) and C-reactive protein(CRP) were significantly higher (P<0.05), while the concentrations of albumin(Alb) and Hb were lower than those of healthy control group (P<0.05). The concentration of LDL-C had no significant difference between MHD group and healthy control group. Compared with those of ESRD group, the levels of Crea, CRP and CysC were not significantly increased (P<0.05) in MHD group. There was no difference in the level of Lp (a) between the MHD and the ESRD patients with LMW-apo (a) isoforms (P>0.05), but compared with healthy control group, the serum levels of Lp (a) in the two groups were remarkably increased (P<0.05). The level of Lp (a) with LMW-apo (a) were significantly correlated with Alb and CysC respectively (P<0.05). The level of Lp (a) with HMW-apo (a) of MHD patients were higher than that of ESRD patients (P<0.05). The patients in the two groups had higher levels of Lp (a) as compared with those of healthy control group. The positive correlation of Lp (a) level with CRP and CysC was observed in patients with HMW-apo (a) (P<0.01). As MHD group as concerned, Lp (a) level was associated with Alb and CysC (P<0.01); regression analysis showed that apo (a) isoforms, Alb and CysC were listed in the regression equation, and the determinate coefficient (r2) was 0.348, in which the respective r2 of apo (a) isoforms, Alb and CysC was 0.121, 0.178 and 0.049.Conclusion Multiple factors may contribute to the high level of Lp (a) in MHD patients. Moreover, Lp (a) with different isoforms of apo (a) had different influencing factors. The corresponding therapeutic measure should be taken according to apo (a) isoforms in order to acquire better therapeutic efficacy for MHD patients.

Results The solution is a reasonable development method for enterprise-Web PACS, and the more big the project is, the more obvious the advantage is. Conclusion It is an effective way of developing enterprise-Web PACS to use the reasonable software structure and good development platform and advanced development framework in increasing the software reusability, maintainability, improving the capacity of the secondary development ability.

Objective To investigate the level and influencing factors of self-efficacy among nurses with needlestick injuries and explore effective strategies to improve self-efficacy.Methods 713 clinical nurses with needlestick injuries had been enrolled by convenience and stratified sampling method to comphte the investigation using the self-designed demographic questionnaire and General Self-Efficacy Scale.Results The average score of the self-efficacy was (2.70 ±0.52) points.69.1％ of the needlestick injury nurses had the sclf-efficacy score at the middle level; only 19.1％ of them had a higher level score on self-efficacy.Gender,title,section,initiative report,work environment,and occupational safety training were identified as the influencing factors of the self-efficiency.Conclusions Even though more than half of the nurses with needlestick injuries had a middle level self-efficacy,they need further improvement.Other influencing factors should be explored in future in order to develop the corresponding management intervention which can strengthen the self-efficacy of nurses with needlestick injuries.

An online solid phase extraction ( SPE ) coupled with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-mass spectrometry (MS) method was developed for the separation of 1,3,5,7-tetraacetyl-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane ( TAT ) and 1 , 3 , 5-triacetyl-1 , 3 , 5-triazacyclohexane ( TRAT ) which are the synthetic intermediates of cyclotetramethylenetetranitramine ( HMX) . In this experiment, molecularly imprinted polymers with TAT as the template were used as SPE sorbents. PC HILIC column was employed in liquid chromatographic separation. The parameters of SPE-HPLC were optimized. Acetonitrile was selected as the loading solution with flow rate of 0. 1 mL/min. After flushed by ethyl acetate, the TAT adsorbed on SPE was eluted by methanol, which was also used as the mobile phase in HPLC separation. The mass spectrometry was coupled with HPLC to identify the corresponding peaks. Under the optimized conditions, the linear detection range of this method was 6. 0 mg/L to 500. 0 mg/L, with the detection limit of 1. 8 mg/L (3σ). The enriching factor was 400 times and TAT recovery was 79%–93% in the standard addition experiment.

Objective To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of healthcare-associated infection (HAI) in inpatients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma during radiotherapy period.Methods The occurrence of HAI among patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma in a tertiary first-class cancer hospital in Jiangsu Province between July 2012 and June 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 1 396 patients were investigated,the incidence of HAI was 2.29%,case incidence of HAI was 2.44%.The most common infection site was oral mucosa (n =24, 70.59%),and most infection occurred 2-4 weeks after the start of the radiotherapy.A total of 38 pathogenic iso-lates were isolated,24 (63.16%)were gram-positive bacteria,12 (31 .58%)were gram-negative bacteria,and 2 (5.26%)were fungi.Incidences of HAI were high in patients >50 years old,with chemotherapy,length of hospital stay>60 days,and used at least 2 kinds of antimicrobial agents (all P <0.05).Conclusion Prevention and control of HAI in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma during radiotherapy period should be strengthened,especially for the elderly,patients with chemotherapy,long length of hospital stay,and extensive use of antimicrobial agents.

0.05).CONCLUSIONS The rising rates of the drug-resistant Uu strains may be resulted of no-standard treatments.The treatment time will be shortened and the curative effects will be better if the treatments are based on the results of the susceptibility test.

OBJECTIVE: To explore an efficient strategy for converting the antibacterial activity of fluoroquinolones to antitumor activity. METHODS: An amide group as an isostere modified by rhodanine unsaturated ketone moiety corresponding to the C-3 carboxylic acid group resulted in 12 new title C-3 (5-arylidene-2-thioxo-1, 3-thiozolidin-2, 4 -dione-3-yl) amides (6a - 6l) from ofloxacin 1. Their structures were characterized by elemental analysis and spectral data, and the in vitro antitumor activity of the title compounds against three tested cell lines was evaluated by MTT assay. RESULTS: Twelve new title compounds were synthesized from ofloxacin and exhibited significantly higher potency than the parent compound ofloxacin. CONCLUSION: Using a rhodanine unsaturated ketone hybrided amide group as the C-3 bioisostere is favorable to improve antitumor activity.
