Objective To explore the effect of psychological nursing on patients with condyloma acuminatum. Methods 324 patients with condyloma acuminatum were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group with 162 cases in each group.All patients were given carbon dioxide laser therapy,based upon this,the control group was given routine nursing,and the intervention group was additionally given psychological nursing.The anxiety and depression score and the treatment effect were compared between the two groups. Results After one-month treatment,the scores of SAS,SDS in the intervention group declined obviously compared wilt those of pre-treatment and the control group.The cure rate and the recurrce rate in the intervention group were 86.4％ and 13.6％,significantly better than those of the control group. Conclusions Psychological nursing can remit the anxiety and depression emotion of patients with concdylouna acuminatum,improve the cure rare and reduce the recurrence rate of condyloma acuminatum.

Objective To investigate the present status of early diagnosis and misdiagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods A total of 50 patients diagnosed as NPC were recruited at the department of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in our hospital. The time from that patients felt discomfort to be diagnosed of NPC was determined bydifferent symptoms and signs. Furthermore , the status of misdiagnosis were also investigated. The spearmans rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between the cancer stage and the time of confirmeddiagnosis , and the relationship between the rate of misdiagnosed and the rank of the hospital they visited. The χ2 test was then used to analyze the cancer stage with the time when they were diagnosed. Results Results indicated that the time when patients were diagnosed significantly correlated with pTNM stage (P < 0.05). Patients diagnosed in one month were most at stage Ⅱ, diagnosed in six months were stage III, and diagnosed after twelve months were stage Ⅳ(P < 0.05). Furthermore, we found that the rate of misdiagnosis of NPC was 12%. Moreover,the misdiagnosed rate was associated with the rank of the hospital patients visited. Discussion In conclusion , the present status of the early diagnosis of NPC is not optimistic. Most of the patients with NPC were misdiagnosed in basic medical institutions , especially in town or village health center. Thus, it is important to popularize the health knowledge about the secondary prevention of NPC and train the doctor in basic medical institutions.

Objective To investigate the regularity and predictors of weight loss during concurrent chemo-radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 82 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma ,with average age of 45 years ,who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. Paired t-test was used to analyze the weight loss pattern during chemoradiotherapy. The Spearman′s rank correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between high weight loss(HWL)and the clinical factors. Results The paired t-test showed that the weight of the patients decreased continuously every week during chemoradiotherapy(P < 0.05),and the value dropped most significantly during the 4th week. Among these 82 patients,32 were determined as HWL(weight loss > 10%). Spearman′s rank correlation analysis showed that HWL was associated with older age,female,higher T and TNM stage,3D-CRT technology,the higher dose of radiotherapy in nasopharynx and in neck lymph node,and decreases of leukopenia and hemoglobin over degree Ⅱ(P<0.05). Conlousions Weight may decrease continuously every week during chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Age,gender,T stage,TNM stage,radio-therapy dose,and leukopenia and hemoglobin decreases may be predictors for weight loss degree during concurrent chemoradiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients.

Objective To test amyloid beta protein(Aβ)40 and Aβ42 levels in CSF and apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype in patients with Alzheimer's disease(AD) and study whether or not the Aβ is related to the severity of dementia and the genotypes of ApoE.Methods 48 AD patients including 27 cases of mild type and 21 cases of serious type and 35 normal controls were selected.Aβ40 and Aβ42 in CSF and ApoE genotype were analyzed.Results Aβ40 levels were ( 12.3 ±4.6) μg/L,( 11.7 ±4.1 ) μg/L,( 12.6 ±4.9) μg/L and ( 11.0 ±3.7) μg/L(t = 1.377,0.705 and 1.385 ,all the p values were greater than 0.05) and Aβ42 levels were ( 105.3 ±25.4) ng/L,(110.7 ±21.7) ng/L,(96.9 ±23.9) ng/L and (123.5 ±29.6) ng/L(t=3.006,2.832,and 3.488,all the p values less than 0.01 ),in AD group,mild AD group,moderate to serious AD group and normal controls,respectively.Aβ40 levels were (11.9 ± 5.2) μg/L vs.(10.5 ± 3.8) μg/L in AD and controls with ApoEε4(t=0.696,P＞0.05) and (12.6 ±4.5) μg/L vs.(11.4 ±3.4) μg/L without ApoEε4(t = 1.008,P＞0.05).Aβ42 levels were (99.7 ± 23.8) ng/L vs.( 129.6 ± 31.0) ng/L in AD and controls with ApoEε4( t =1.632,P ＞ 0.05 ) and ( 110.4 ± 28.4) ng/L vs.( 129.6 ± 31.0) ng/L in those without ApoEε4 ( t = 2.110,P ＜0.05 ).Conclusions The CSF level of Aβ is abnormal in AD,and it is related to the severity of the disease and the ApoE genotypes.

Objective To identify the role of miR-124 in regulating the radiosensitivity and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods Transient transfection of cells with miR-124 mimic or inhibitor was performed and wound-healing assay was used to investigate the role of miR-124 in the EMT of NPC. The apoptosis affected by miR-124 was also measured after irradiation , followed by investigating the cell proliferation by EdU assay. Finally , proteins of Akt and ERK associated with EMT and radiosensitivity, were measured by western blot. Results The migration index from NPC cell line indicated that miR-124 repressed the EMT. The results from caspase-3 activity assay showed that caspase-3 activity after irradiation significantly increased in miR-124 mimic group compared with the control group (P < 0.01). It was also confirmed that irradiation led to a higher percentage of apoptosis in miR-124 group compared with the control group in NPC cells. Cell proliferation after irradiation was significantly decreased in MiR-124 group as compared with control group . MiR-124 inhibited the protein expression of p-Akt . Conclusion MiR-124 may repress the EMT and decrease radio-resistance of NPC via p-Akt signaling pathway , which may provide a new insight into radio-resistance in NPC.

Objective The radiotherapy resistance is one of important causes for nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) treatment failure.Junctional adhesion molecule A(JAMA)is closely correlated with the tumor poor prognosis.Thus this experiment is to in vestigate the relationship between JAMA expression and the radiosensitivity of NPC.Methods To overexpress or interfere the JAMA expression in CNE2 and HONE1 cell lines.Then different doses of X-ray were adopted to conduct irradiation.The cell clone formation capacity and cellular apoptosis change were detected after 24 h.The role of JAMA in the NPC radiotherapy was understand.The related signal pathway protein in cell lines with different JAMA expression was detected by Western blot.Results The cell lines with low JAMA expression were more sensitive to radiotherapy:After low JAMA expression,the D0 value in the CNE2 cell line was decreased from 3.26 ±0.78 to 1.92 ± 0.23;the Dq value was decreased from 46.51 ± 4.27 to 32.12 ± 3.19.The radio therapy induced apoptosis was significantly increased in the cell lines with low JAMA expression,after low JAMA expressing,thcellular apoptosis was elevated from 6.9 ％ ± 0.9 ％ to 13.7 ％ ± 1.3 ％;the HONE1 cellular apoptosis was elevated from 6.5 ％ + 1.1 ％ to 12.3 ％ ± 1.7％;JAMA overexpression cell lines were significantly decreased.The preliminary mechanism research results showed that JAMA played the effect via Akt signal pathway.Conclusion This research results verifiy that JAMA expression level is closely correlated with the radiosensitivity of NPC cell line:JAMA can increase the radiotherapy resistance of NPC cell lines,which provides a new feasible research direction for NPC enhancing radiosensitivity.
