Objective:To investigate the Musashi 1 expression, and its correlation with clinical variables, such as clinical pathologic factors,angiogenesis and prognosis in colon cancer.Methods: Musashi 1 mRNA level was determined by quantitative real-time PCR( qRT-PCR) in 36 pairs of matched colon cancer tissues and adjacent non-tumorous tissues.The expression of Musashi 1 and mi-crovascular density ( MVD) were tested by immunohistochemical in 96 cases of colon cancer.Combined with postoperative follow-up survival situation, the correlation between the expression of Musashi 1, pathological parameters, prognosis and MVD were statistical analylised.Results:Musashi 1 mRNA level of colon cancer tissues determined by PCR was significantly higher than adjacent non-tumorous tissues( P<0.05).Positive Musashi 1 immunoreactivity was seen in 63.5%of colon cancer specimens,which was correlated with the depth of invasion,Duckes stage,lymph node metastasis,and TNM stage (P<0.05).Compared with Musashi 1 negative patients, Musashi 1 positive patients had significantly shorter survival time ( 23.0% vs 60.0%, P<0.01 ) .High intratumor blood microvessel density patients had significantly shorter survival times than low intratumor blood microvessel density patients(P<0.05).Intratumor blood microvessel density correlated with Musashi 1 expression (P<0.01).Conclusion:Musashi 1 mRNA level of colon cancer tissues was higher than adjacent non-tumorous tissues,the difference has statistically significant.We conclude that Musashi 1 expression correlates with the depth of invasion,Dukes stage,lymph node metastasis,and TNM stage and microvascular density ( MVD) in colon cancer.We propose that synthesized Musashi 1 increases intratumor angiogenesis,thus promotes tumor progression.Musashi 1 expression may be a good biomarker for poor prognosis in colon cancer.

microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding,single-stranded RNAs,which regulate gene expression by binding messenger RNA (mRNA).Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine cancer.Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is a common type of thyroid cancer,and its incidence has dramatically increased worldwide.Recent evidence suggests that miRNAs play an important role in thyroid carcinogenesis,development and prognosis,especially in PTC.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of repeated intranasal insulin on postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly patients undergoing general anesthesia.Methods:Seventy elderly patients, aged ≥65 yr, with body mass index ≤28 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ-Ⅲ, undergoing elective radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=35 each) according to the random number table method: control group (group C) and insulin group (group I). In group C, normal saline 0.5 ml was administered intranasally twice a day from 2 days before surgery until the day of surgery.In group I, insulin 20 U (0.5 ml) was administered intranasally twice a day from 2 days before surgery until the day of surgery.The regional tissue oxygen saturation (rSO 2) was measured after entering the operating room (T 0), at intubation (T 1), at 1, 2 and 3 h after the start of operation (T 2-4), at the end of surgery (T 5) and at extubation (T 6). The insulin allergic reactions, nasal irritation and hypoglycemic reactions were recorded after intranasal administration of insulin or normal saline within 2 days before operation.The blood glucose concentrations were measured at T 0, T 3 and T 5.The occurrence of POD within 3 days after operation was recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the incidence of POD was significantly decreased within 3 days after operation, and the rSO 2 was increased at T 1-6 in group I ( P<0.05). The rSO 2 was significantly higher at T 1-6 than at T 0 in two groups ( P<0.05). There were no significant changes in blood glucose concentrations at T 0, T 3 and T 5 between the two groups ( P>0.05). No insulin allergic reactions, nasal irritation and hypoglycemic reactions occurred in two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Repeated intranasal administration of insulin can increase the rSO 2 during operation and decrease the occurrence of POD in elderly patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Objective To explore the empathy deficits of adolescents with different types of conduct disorder. Methods The participants included 65 adolescents ( who met the DSM-Ⅳ criteria for conduct disorder)ranging from 13 ～ 18 in age,and 195 normal adolescents ranging from 13 ～ 18 in age. All participants were assessed by revised Basic Empathy Scale. 65 patients were divided into 4 subgroups according to symptoms: destructive-nondestructive subgroups and overt-covert subgroups. Results (1) Scores of cognitive empathy were lower in patients than normal controls ( (29.86 ± 4.72) vs ( 32.09 ± 4.94), P ＜ 0. 01 ). (2) There were significant differences in the levels of cognitive empathy between patients and controls (P＜0. 01 ). Scores of cognitive empathy were lower in destructive subgroup than controls ( (29.76 ± 4.46) vs ( 32.09 ± 4.94) , P ＜ 0.01 ). (3) There were significant differences in the levels of two dimensions and total scores of empathy between patients and controls (F=3.10 ～5.36, P ＜ 0.05 ). Scores of cognitive empathy were lower in overt subgroup ( 29.22 ± 3.77 ) and covert subgroup (30.21 ± 5.17 ) than controls (32.09 ± 4.94) (P＜ 0.05, P＜0.01 );and scores of affective empathy were lower in overt subgroup than covert subgroup ( (26.13 ±5.05) vs (29.50 ±4.16), P＜0.05 ). Total scores of empathy were lower in overt subgroup (55.35 ±7.09) than covert subgroup (59.71 ±7.58) and controls (60.04 ±8.50 ) (P＜0.05). (4) Logistic regression analysis showed that cognitive empathy was a protective factor for conduct disorders( OR = 0.43 ). Conclusion The cognitive empathy level of patients is significantly lower than normal students;and boys with different types of conduct disorder possess different empathic abilities when compared with healthy controls;and cognitive empathy is a protective factor for conduct disorder.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of psychological health intervention in the elderly urban residents living on minimum subsistence allowances, and to search for a suitable psychological health intervention strategy. Methods The 112 elderly persons living on minimum subsistence allowances in Xuzhou were selected by stratified cluster sampling, and they were matched with 112 controls. The elderly persons living on minimum subsistence allowances were divided into intervention group and control group. A general intervention based on community involved psychological health and care lecture, psychodrama treatment and psychological consultancy was made on the intervention. The SCL-90 was used to evaluate the psychological health status and effectiveness of psychological health intervention. Results The elderly persons living on minimum subsistence allowances had higher SCL-90 scores compared with other residents, and their psychological health status was serious. After the psychological health intervention, the SCL-90 scores were all lower in intervention group than in control group [ interpersonal relationship sensitiveness: (1.13 ± 0. 39) vs.(1.26±0.26), t=2.12, P=0.04; gloom: (1.23±0.66) vs. (1.43±0.24), t=2.08, P=0.04;anxiety: (1. 18±0.50) vs. (1.38±0.34), t=2.17, P=0.03; hostility: (1.24±0.49) vs. (1.40±0.28), t=2.03, P=0.04; other factor: (1. 31±0.56) vs. (1.49±0.31), t=2.04, P=0.04; total score: (115.89± 17.21) vs. (122.64± 10.41), t=2.42, P=0.02]. Conclusions The psychological health parameters are improved by psychological health intervention.

Objective: To explore the relationship between cognitive impairment and serum fatty acid profile. Methods: Participants aged ≥60 years were selected from 3 communities in Shijiazhuang in 2015. The questionnaire was performed to collect basic information. And Montreal Cognitive Assessment was applied for the evaluation of cognitive impairment. Blood lipid parameters and serum fatty acid profiles were analyzed for all the subjects. A total of 529 subjects were finally included in this research. Multivariate ordinal logistic model was used to analyze the relationship between serum fatty acid profile and cognitive impairment. Results: Normal, mild and moderate cognitive impairment accounted for 41.2% (n=218), 51.4% (n=272) and 7.4% (n=39) of all the subjects respectively. With control of age, gender, education, total cholesterol (TC), total triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), the OR (95%CI) of eicosenoic acid, nervonic acid and ratio of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3/n-6) was 1.06 (1.01-1.10), 0.93 (0.91-0.96), and 0.17 (0.04-0.73). Conclusion The risk of cognitive impairment decreased with the raise of serum nervonic acid concentration and n-3/n-6, and increased with the raise of serum eicosenoic acid concentration.

Objective:To investigate the changes of serum inflammatory cytokines in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and its clinical significance by detecting the serum levels of homocysteine (Hcy),cystatin C (Cys C),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) . Methods:A total of 82 ACI patients (ACI group) and 50 healthy persons (control group) were selected,the serum Hcy,Cys C,hs-CRP levels of all subjects were determined,the relationship between inflammatory cytokines and USA National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was analyzed. Finally,the roles of inflammatory cytokines in diagnosis of ACI were evaluated. Results:The levels of Hcy,Cys-C and hs-CRP in ACI group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.01) . The serum levels of these factors had significant difference among different neurological deficiency groups (P<0.05), and had a positive correlation with NIHSS score (r=0.396, 0.445, 0.391, P<0.01), hs-CRP had the highest sensitivity (72.0%) and specificity (82.0%) for diagnosis of ACI. Conclusions:The hs-CRP, Hcy and Cys C play important roles in the onset and development of ACI and can reflect the severity of ACI. Among them,Hcy is the important dangerous factor of ACI,the level of Cys C reflectes the degree of the vascular inflammatory injury,and hs-CRP can be used as an index to diagnose and evaluate the severity of ACI.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of a novel mobile health patient management system involving doctors, nurses, and patients ( TRIO mode) on glycemic control and self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) compliance among the type 2 diabetes mellitus ( T2DM) patients using basal insulin standardization treatment in China. Methods From April 2014 to April 2015, 416 hospitals in 110 cities of 30 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions across China were selected to participate in the program. A Online-to-Offline ( O2O) integrated mobile health patients management system with mobile terminals for the doctors, nurses, and patients was applied in the program for patient education, follow-up, and data collection. For all the newly recruited patients, the baseline information was collected and a first-day patient education program were provided by a designated nurse. In the 12-week follow-up period, data of basal insulin doses and fasting plasma glucose ( FPG) values were collected from the patients by text messages or tracking phone call by the nurse. The patients also received timely standardized patients health education and glycemic control guidance by participating in thepatient education forum anddoctors' hotline in order to help them achieve the glycemic control goals. Results A total of 102 524 patients using basal insulin treatment were eligible and enrolled in the program. 64 420 patients completed the 12 weeks follow-up and provided at least one FPG value at all five follow-ups. In total, 62. 6% (40 334 / 64 420) of the patients reached the FPG control target(FPG≤7. 0 mmol/ L) at the end of follow-up period. The weekly average FPG for patients with complete SMBG data decreased from 10. 58 mmol/ L to 6. 91 mmol/ L while the FPG control rates increased from 13. 4% to 69. 2% . The weekly average FPG for the patients provided incomplete SMBG data decreased from 10. 54 mmol/ L to 7. 13 mmol/ L while the FPG control rates increased from 13. 6% to 62. 2% . The FPG control rates for the patients provided complete SMBG were 1. 74 times higher than those patients provided incomplete SMBG. Based on a GEE model, the average decline of the FPG and the increase of the FPG control rates were significantly better for patients who provided complete SMBG as compared to the patients with incomplete SMBG data. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that factors such as receiving the first-day education, participating in the follow-up patient education forum, and the doctors' hotline were significantly associated with the improvement of the SMBG compliance, the treatment adherence, and the FPG control rates. The SMBG compliance and the treatment adherence for patients who completed first-day education were 1. 68 times and 1. 22 times higher, respectively. For the patients who participated in follow-up education activities, their SMBG compliance and treatment adherence were 3. 17 times and 3. 36 times higher, respectively. Conclusion The innovativeTRIOmobile health patient management mode was feasible and effective for better managing the type 2 diabetes patients initiated on basal insulin treatment in China. Active participation in the first-day education program and the follow-up patient education activities can effectively improve the SMBG compliance and the treatment adherence, and therefore play an important role in helping patient achieving FPG control in a faster manner.

Extensive intracranial calcification is rare in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. This article reported a patient with antiphospholipid antibody syndrome secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus, complicated with bilateral symmetrical extensive intracranial calcification. By reviewing literature, the results suggested that the flare of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus and the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies may be risk factors for intracranial calcification. Therefore, in order to prevent the formation of intracranial calcification, it is necessary to maintain continuous disease remission and anticoagulant therapy.
