Objective: To further study the effects of As 2 O 3 in various concentrations on the esophageal carcinoma cell line. Methods: The esophageal malignant transformed epithelial cells (SHEEC1) were induced by HPV18 in synergy with TPA in our laboratory. The cells cultured in flask and 24 wells plate were treated by As 2 O 3 with concentrations of 1, 3 and 5 ?mol/L for 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 h respectively. The morphologic changes of cells were observed under election microscopy. The mitotic index (MI) of living cells was calculated by phase contrast microscopy and the cells with TdR uptake were examined by autoradiography. The proliferative index (PI) and apoptotic index (AI) were assayed by flow cytometry. Results: A low dosage of As 2 O 3 (1.0 ?mol/L) enhancing the protiferative rate of SHEEC1 was demonstrated with TdR uptake, MI and PI increased. The high AI and low PI were found in the high concentrations (3 and 5 ?mol/L)of As 2 O 3 . The morphological changes of apoptosis and necrosis were found in 24 h after As 2 O 3 in high concentrations (3 and 5 ?mol/L) administrated. Conclusion: The effects of As 2 O 3 in various concentrations are different. Low concentration of As 2 O 3 promotes the proliferation of the esophageal carcinoma cells by increment of DNA synthesis. In high concentration of As 2 O 3 apoptosis and necrosis are induced.

Object To develop a best approach for the rapid propagation of Lilium brownii F.E. Brown var. viridulum Baker by tissue culture. Methods Different parts of the bulb were tried as the explant and cultured on different culture media with the additon of different portions of various hormones at various cultural conditions. Results The best medium for the culture of explant bulb was MS+NAA 0.5 mg/L and GA 3 2.0 mg/L and the highest induction rate was at the lowest part of the scale leaves, which attained 92.5%. The small bud can further differentiate to form secondary small buds. By liquid-quivering culturing, the weight increase can be accelerated. Conclusion Tissue culture of L. brownii var. viridulum can achieve its rapid propagation, resulting in the possibility for its industrial production.

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the levels of serum miR-21 and miR-34a in patients with advanced gastric cancer before and after Folfox chemotherapy and its relationship with chemotherapy efficacy.Methods Forty-five patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent Folfox chemotherapy were enrolled from May 2015 to October 2015.The levels of miR-21 and miR-34a were analyzed by Real-time PCR before and after chemotherapy.The relationship between miR-21 and miR-34a levels and chemotherapy efficacy was analyzed.The predictive values of miR-21 and miR-34a on the efficacy of chemotherapy were evaluated by the receiver operating curve(ROC).Results After chemotherapy,6 cases(13.33%)were relieved,10 cases(22.22%)were stable disease(SD),29 cases(64.44%)were disease progress(PD),the objective response rate(ORR)was 13.33%,the disease control rate(DCR)was 35.56%,the median survival time was 8.1 months.The level of miR-21 was down-regulated and up-regulation for miR-34a after chemotherapy.They were statistically significant(P<0.05).The level of miR-21 in the chemotherapy group was lower than that in the ineffective group,and the level of miR-34a was higher than that of the ineffective group(P<0.05).MiR-21 was negatively correlated with the efficacy of chemotherapy(rs=-0.431,P<0.05),while miR-34a was positively correlated with it(rs=0.504,P<0.05).The median survival time was 7.6 months for low-level patients with miR-21 and 6.0 months for high-level patients.The median survival time of miR-34a patients was 5.5 months,compared with 8.3 months for high-level patients,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The Log-Rank test showed that the median survival of patients with low miR-21 was higher than that of patients with high miR-21(P<0.05).The median survival of patients with high miR-34a was higher than that of patients with low miR-34a(P<0.05).The miR-21 combined with miR-34a in predicting chemotherapy efficacy under the curve(AUC)was 0.865,the sensitivity was 80.9% and the specificity was 89.8%.Conclusion miR-21 and miR-34a are correlated with chemotherapy efficacy median survival time of patients with advanced gastric cancer.

Objective To analyze the clinical and laboratory characteristics of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in children. Methods Fifty-three inpatients, 5 boys and 48 girls with SLE, who aged from 7 to 14 years with a median age at 12 years, were enrolled into this study. A retrospective study was carried out to assess the clinical and laboratory features of these pediatric patients. Results The ratio of male to female patients was 1:9.6. Skin eruption was the most common initial manifestation (41.51%), followed by fever (20.75%) and arthralgia (20.75%). Systemic involvement was common, and 84.90% of these patients had hematological abnormalities, 60.38% renal involvement, 18.87% nervous involvement. The most common manifestation of hematological, renal and nervous involvement was anemia, proteinuria and seizures, respectively. Among the immunologic parameters tested, anti-nuclear antibody showed the highest positivity rate of 90.57%, followed by anti-dsDNA with a positivity rate of 67.92%. There was no significant difference between the male and female patients in the age of onset, SLEDAI score at admission and discharge, duration of hospitalization or the dose of corticosteroid used initially and at the discharge. Conclusion The manifestations of pediatric SLE are various, and multisystem involvement is common in these patients. Early diagnosis and active treatment might benefit the prognosis of pediatric SLE.

Objective:To explore the effect of short-term mindfulness behavior training on body image, negative emotions and mindfulness level of pregnant women with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) .Methods:From October 2020 to October 2021, 50 RSA pregnant women admitted to the Department of Gynecology of Wuxi Woman and Enfants Care Hospital were selected as the study subject using convenience sampling. Pregnant women were divided into an intervention group and a control group using a random number table method, with 25 cases in each group. During the research process, two cases were lost in the intervention group and two cases in the control group, and 46 cases were ultimately completed, with 23 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing, while the intervention group received a 4-week mindfulness behavior training on this basis. Body Image in Pregnancy Scale (BIPS), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) were used to evaluate the effect of intervention.Results:After intervention, the BIPS, SAS, SDS scores of pregnant women in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group, while the MAAS scores were higher than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Short-term mindfulness behavior training can improve the body image and negative emotions of pregnant women with RSA, and can improve the level of mindfulness attention awareness.
