Shanghai Medical Center for Children, jointly set up by the municipal government and the World Health Foundation of America, possesses advanced intelligence hospital buildings and medical facilities. The authors gave a detailed account of the centers practice in implementing reform with modern ideas of hospital management. Specific ways include: ①improving the overall quality by training all workers and staff of the management contingent; ②strengthening medical quality control via orienting medical service towards the needs of patients; ③conducting widespread international exchanges and cooperation with specialty development serving as the link; ④enriching hospital culture by strengthening the building of a spiritual civilization with special characteristics; ⑤setting up the centers development department so as to raise social charity funds for the advancement of the hospital; ⑥outsourcing logistic service so as to improve operating efficiency.

Objective:To assess the potential of mouse immune-costimulating signal B7-2 in inducing immune effect.Methods:(1)The specific mB7-2cDNA fragment from LPS-stimulated mouse splenocytes was obtained by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction.The obtained fragment was inserted to pLXSN plasmid.Then the plasmid pLXSN-mB7-2 was packaged into PA317 cells;(2)The EL4/mB7-2 was obtained by infecting the EL4 by the concentrated virus particles produced by PA317/mB7-2;(3)In vitro,the secretion of IL-2 of EL4/mB7-2 stimulated-lymphocytes was detected by using mixed lymphocytes culture.Results:pLXSN-mB7-2 and transgenetic EL4/mB7-2 cells were obained successfully.IL-2 production in 24h in the supernatant stimulated by EL4/mB7-2 was much higher than wild EL4 cells.Conclusion:EL4/mB7-2 can activated T cell to produce IL-2.This research lay foundation for the research of the function of immune-costimulating signal in the tumor immunity and treatment,the mechanism of autoimmune disease and organ transplantation.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of zinc finger protein 217 (ZNF217)in human pancreatic cancer.Methods 43 cases with pancreatic cancer undergoing surgery in the PLA 117 Hospital and People's Hospital of Ruian City from Apr .2011 to May.2014 were enrolled in the study . The pancreatic cancer and the corresponding tumor-adjacent tissues were collected .Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR)was applied to detect ZNF217 mRNA expression in pancreatic cancer (n=43)and the corresponding tumor-adjacent normal tissues.The protein expression of ZNF217 was measured by immunohistochemistry(IHC). The relationship between the expression of ZNF 217 and clinical features was analyzed by pearson chi-square test . Results The expression level of ZNF217 mRNA and protein was significantly higher in pancreatic cancer tissues than in adjacent normal tissues(P<0.05).The high expression of ZNF217 protein was positively correlated with perineural invasion, tumor size, lymphatic metastasis and advanced TNM stage (P<0.05).Conclusions The expression of ZNF217 is significantly higher in pancreatic cancer tissues than in tumor-adjacent normal tissues , and the upregulation of ZNF 217 is associated with clinicopathological features of tumor malignance .ZNF217 may become a new marker and effective therapeutic target in early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer .

Objective:To investigate the current situation of medical social worker supervision in Shanghai, for reference to promote the high-quality development of medical social work.Methods:From June to July 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted on the in-service medical social workers in all medical institutions with medical social work departments or posts in Shanghai. The questionnaire mainly included demographic information, current status of supervision implementation, and effectiveness of supervision. The data were analyzed descriptively with t test for comparison between groups and the Pearson test was for correlation analysis. Results:A total of 99 medical social workers were included in this study, 65 had received supervision, and medical institutions where 58 people located had established the supervision system. The average scores of actual and expected supervisory support received by medical social workers were 3.71 and 4.20 respectively, and the mean burnout level score was 32.91. The effect of establishing a supervision institutions on burnout was statistically significant ( P<0.05) and actual access to supervision support was negatively associated with burnout ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall situation of medical social work supervision in Shanghai was positive, but the demand for supervision was not fully satisfied; Supervision had a positive impact on reducing the burnout level. It is suggested that medical social work should further strengthen the cultivation of supervisory talents, promote the construction of supervisory systems, and improve the quality of supervision.
