Objective To explore the influence of self-management education on quality of life of patients with deep vein thrombosis. Methods 60 cases of deep vein thrombosis patients were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group with 30 cases in each group, two groups basically received the same medication treatment, the control group held conventional health education, The experimental group implemented self-management education.Life quality was compared before education and 3 months after education was compared between the two groups. Results Before self-management education, the scores of quality of life of the two groups showed no difference; after three months of selfmanagement education, the score of body's function, psychological function, social function and total score of quality of life were obviouly different.However, there were no significant differences in material life. Conclusions Self-management education can improve the quality of life of patients with lower extremity deep vein thrombosis.

Objective To analyze the differential expression of caveolin-2 in the psoriasis vulgaris and normal skin tissues, and investigate the relationship between caveolin-2 and the development of psoriasis vulgaris. Methods The expression of caveolin-2 mRNA and protein in psoriasis vulgaris patients and normal skin tissues were detected by quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blot respectively. Results The quantitative PCR showed that the expression of caveolin-2 mRNA significantly decreased in the psoriasis vulgaris skin tissues when compared with the normal skin tissues (P < 0.01). The immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the caveolin-2 protein was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of the basal layer cells in the normal skin tissues, but the caveolin-2 protein was not expressed in the lesions of psoriasis vulgaris. And the results of Western blot showed that the expression of caveolin-2 protein was significantly reduced in the psoriasis vulgaris skin tissues compared with the normal skin tissues. Conclusion The expression of caveolin-2 was reduced or lost in lesional epidermis of psoriasis vulgaris patients, which may serve as an aetiological factor in the development and or progression of psoriasis.

AIM: To investigate the effects of rosiglitazone on fibroblast-like synoviocyte ( FLS )-induced osteoclastogenesis in rheumatoid arthritis ( RA) and the related mechanism.METHODS: RA-FLS were cocultured with peripheral blood monocytes from healthy volunteers in the presence of macrophage colony-stimulating factor ( M-CSF) and rosiglitazone.Osteoclasts were assayed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase ( TRAP) staining.Resorption lacunae area was identified by toluidine blue staining and quantified by image analysis software.The mRNA expression of RANKL and OPG was evaluated by real-time PCR, and the protein levels of RANKL, OPG, p-ERK, p-p38 and p-JNK were measured by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with control group ( without rosiglitazone treatment) , rosiglitazone at concentration of 15 μmol/L significantly decreased the number of osteoclasts (P<0.01) and resorption lacunae area (P<0.05).The expression of RANKL at mRNA and protein levels was significantly down-regulated by rosiglitazone at concentration of 15μmol/L, while the mRNA and protein expression of OPG was up-regulated (P<0.01).Rosiglitazone (15 μmol/L) sig-nificantly decreased the protein level of p-ERK ( P<0.05 ) , but not the protein level of p-p38 or p-JNK ( P>0.05 ) . CONCLUSION:Rosiglitazone inhibits RA-FLS-induced osteoclast formation and its resorption activity by down-regulating RANKL expression and ERK phosphorylation, suggesting that rosiglitazone may inhibit RA osteoclastogenesis and bone re-sorption.

Objective To analyze the complications,treatments and prognosis of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation,especially on surgical complications and treatments.Method The causes and outcomes of surgical treatment in 70 cases of simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation performed between Dec.1999 and June 2012 were retrospectively analyzed in our center.Result Sixteen patients (22.9％) underwent one or more reoperations.The causes for reoperation were as follows:2 cases of hematuria,4 cases of abdominal hemorrhage,4 cases of abdominal infection,4cases of pancreatic thrombosis,2 cases of renal graft's artery rupture,1 case of renal allograft rupture,1 case of intestinal fistula,and 1 case of pancreatic fistula.Eight pancreas grafts were lost in the first year.Pancreatectomy was performed on the other 5 cases:4 cases of pancreatic thrombosis,1 case of intestinal fistula,accounting for 43.8％ of the patients subject to reoperation.The recipients,kidney,pancreas survival rate in reoperation group at 1 year was 87.5％,75％,and 56.3％ respectively; and that in control group at 1 year was 98.1％,98.1 ％,and 98.1 ％ respectively.There was significant difference in kidney survival rate (P＜0.01,chi-square =6.79),and pancreas survival rate (P＜0.01,chi-square =17.47) between two groups.Conclusion Although simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation provides a successful and effective treatment for diabetics with end-stage renal disease,surgical treatment due to complications is still an important factor in short-term survival on the grafts.

Objective To investigate the expression of FHIT,WWOX and MDR1 gene in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and FHIT and WWOX mechanism of inactivation.Methods Real-time PCR was used to test FHIT,WWOX and MDR1 gene′s mRNA expression in 89 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients (experimental group) and 61 inflammatory patients (control group).Q-MSP was used to test the FHIT and WWOX promoter methylation status.Denatured polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to test the LOH of FHIT and WWOX gene.Results (1)The three genes′ mRNA expression were different between experimental group and control group (P<0.05).After grouped according to the histological type and clinical stages,the expression of FHIT and WWOX mRNA between the patients with serious illness or poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and mild cases or highly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma were significantly different in the experimental group,the difference is statistically significant (P<0.05)Meanwhile,the FHIT and WWOX mRNA expression had statistical association with the clinical stage and histological type(r=-0.731,P=0.000;r=-0.816,P=0.000;r=-0.626,P=0.000;r=-0.536,P=0.001).The MDR1 mRNA expression was different between poorly and highly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma (P=0.021),which was statistical associated with the histological type (r=-0.697,P<0.001).(2)The degrees of FHIT and WWOX promoter methylation in the experimental group was higher than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);Also,the expression of FHIT and WWOX mRNA were closely related to the degree of promoter methylation(r=-0.689,P=0.000;r=-0.594,P=0.000).(3) In the experimental group,there were 39 cases (43.8%) of LOH in the FHIT gene,and 42 cases (47.2%)of the WWOX genes were significantly higher than those in the control group (4.9% and 3.3%),the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The FHIT and WWOX gene mRNA were negatively correlated with the loss of heterozygosity(r=-0.239,P=0.049;r=-0.364,P=0.013).Conclusion Promoter methylation is the main reason for the down-regulation of FHIT gene and WWOX gene expression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients,which may be the main reason for the occurrence and development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.The higher expression of MDR 1 mRNA is statistical association with the histological type.

Objective To explore the effect of organizational commitment and leader-member exchange on ethical decision-making in nurses. Methods 520 nurses were questionnaired by the Chinese Employees′ Organizational Commitment Scale,Leader-Member Exchange Scale and the Ethical Decision-making Scale. Results The total scores of organizational commitment and leader-member exchange and ethical decision-making in nurses were respectively (2.11 ± 0.39), (3.54 ± 0.51), (286.62 ± 20.14) points. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the scores of organizational commitment and leader-member exchange were positively correlated with ethical decision-making (r=0.352-0.464,P<0.05). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that leader-member exchange, opportunity commitment and affective commitment, economic commitment could explain 35.3%of the total variance of ethical decision-making in nurses. Conclusions The organizational commitment and leader-member exchange are the influencing factors of ethical decision-making in nurses.

Objective To observe the effect of Tung’s acupuncture on walk and balance function in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Method Ninety-two eligible PD patients were randomized into a control group and a treatment group, 46 cases in each group. The control group was intervened by Levodopa, while the treatment group was additionally intervened by Tung’s acupuncture. The two groups were both treated for 20 d. Before and after the treatment, the walk and balance function were evaluated by the indices of NeuroCom Balance Master, including Walk Across (WLK), Step/Quick Turn (SNT), and Timed Up & Go Test (TUGT), and the results were compared between the two groups. Result The walk speed, step length, swing in turning, time-consumption in turning, and TUGT were improved after the intervention in both groups (P<0.05), and the improvements in the treatment group were more significant than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Tung’s acupuncture plus oral administration of Levodopa can markedly improve the walk and balance function in patients with PD.
