ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the professional cognitive level and its influencing factors of fresh nursing students in Yunnan,in order to provide a basis for nursing education workers, improve the situation and put forward a series of interventions.MethodsA questionnaire survey was done among 623 fresh nursing students in 5 universities of Yunnan province,and the data were collected and analyzed using the descriptive analysis and chi-square test of software SPSS22.0.Results There were 313 peoples choose nursing for easy future employment in qualified 599 questionnaires. The professional cognitive level in Yunnan was not comprehensive compared with other provinces,and the ratio of the nursing mission and etc were lower than other provinces with statistical significance(P < 0.05). However,there were 50 people(40.98%)would like to choose other major of 122 people who come from other provinces,which was higher than that of Yunnan (34.98%). There were 324 students(63.11%)were proud of nursing,327 students(63.70%)think nursing have a good development prospect who received the freshmen entrance education,which were higher than 35.62% and 42.47% of who could not receive the freshmen entrance education,with a statistical significance(P < 0.05). ConclusionSchool should reinforce the new students entrance education and professional publicity to cultivate the professional emotion of nursing freshmen.

Objective To determine the effect of mild hypothermia on neonatal piglet cardiac hemodynamic function after hypoxia-ischemia (HI).Method Twenty five 7-day-old piglets were used for hypoxic ischemic brain damage (HIBD) model by the method of temporary occlusion of the bilateral carotid arteries and followed by mechanical ventilation with low concentration of oxygen (FiO_2=6%) for 30 minutes.The piglets were randomly divided into three groups:group A (normothermia with body temperature to 39℃,n=9),group B (body temperature to 36℃for 72 hours,n=8),and group C (body temperature to 34℃for 72 hours,n=8).Mild hypothermia was initiated at 4 hours after HI,the systolic and diastole function were evaluated by Doppler echocardiography at pre-HI,post-Hi 4 hours and post-HI 72 hours.Results There were no significant differences in left ventrieular ejection time/left ventrieular ejection time (LPEP/LVEF),right ventricular ejection acceleration time/right ventricular ejection time (RACT/RVET) and CO at post-HI with hypothermia 72 hours in three groups,but the heart rate decreased in B and group C group.Compared with nonnothermia,mild hypothermia treatment showed no significant differences in MAP,LPEP/LVET,RACT/RVET,CO,SV at post-HI with hypothermia 72 hours.Conclusions Body temperature decreased by 3～5℃for 72 hours will not aggravate hemodynamic abnormity.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of Qiling Decoction (QD) combined highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) on expression levels of peripheral blood Th17 and Treg cells in HIV/AIDS patients.

METHODSTotally 55 HIV/AIDS patients were randomly assigned to the treatment group (28 cases) and the combination group (27 cases). Besides, 21 HIV negative patients were recruited as the healthy control group. Those in the treatment group received HARRT alone, while those in the combination group received HAART combined QD. The observation lasted for 24 weeks. Meanwhile, according to peripheral blood CD4+ T cell counts before treatment, HIV/AIDS patients were assigned to three subgroups. For patients in subgroup 1, 1 cells/microL < CD4+ T cell counts < or = 100 cells/microL; For patients in subgroup 2, 101 cells/microL < CD4+ T cell counts < or = 200 cells/lL; For patients in subgroup 3, 201 cells/microL < CD4+ T cell counts < or = 350 cells/microL. Expression of peripheral blood Th17 and Treg cells, and number of CD4+ T cell counts were detected using flow cytometry (FCM)in HIV/AIDS patients at the pre-treatment baseline, week 4, 12, and 24, as well as those in the healthy control group.

RESULTSCompared with the healthy control group, CD4+ T cell counts and the baseline expression level of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood of HIV/AIDS patients significantly decreased, the expression level of Treg cells significantly increased P < 0.01). Compared with before treatment in the same group, CD4+ T cell counts all increased at week 4, 12, and 24 in the two treatment groups, showing statistical difference (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). There was no statistical difference in the effective rate at various CD4+ T cell levels between the two groups (P > 0.05). There was no statistical difference in expression levels of Th17 and Treg cells between the combination group and the treatment group at any time point (all P >0.05). The Th17/Treg ration significantly increased in the combination group after 24 weeks of treatment, showing statistical difference when compared with the treatment group (U = 2.135, P = 0.038).

CONCLUSIONQD could improve the immune balance of Th17/Treg cells, which might be one of its mechanisms for improving HIV/AIDS patients' immunity.

Objective To investigate the currents impact on delayed rectifier potassium (HERG)regulated by cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in gastric cancer cells and its mechnism. Methods ① The HERG mRNA, protein and current in gastric cancer cells transfected with or without COX-2 antisense vector were measured by RT-PCR, Western blot and patch-clamp, respectively. ② cAMP concentration in gastric cancer cells transfected with or without COX-2 antisense vector was measured by ELISA. ③ The mutant HERG, which was absence of cAMP-binding domain, was constructed by PCR and transfected into gastric cancer cells. ④ The impact of COX-2 inhibitor and proglandin (PG) E2 on HERG current in gastric cancer cells transfected with or without mutant HERG was investigated by patch clamp. ⑤ The effects of agonist and antagonist of cAMP and inhibitor of protein kinase (PK) A on HERG current in gastric cancer cells transfected with or without HERG mutant were observed by patch clamp. Results ① The expression of HERG mRNA and protein in gastric cancer cells transfected with COX-2 antisense vector were not altered, but the amplitude of HERG current was diminished (P<0.05). ② The cAMP concentration in gastric cancer cells transfected with COX-2 antisense vector was lower than that in parental gastric cancer cells (P<0.05). ③ COX-2 inhibitor and PGE2 had influence on the HERG currents in gastric cancer cells. COX-2 inhibitor reduced and PGE2 enhanced the amplitude of HERG current in gastric cancer cells. However, neither COX-2 inhibitor nor PGE2 showed any negative or positive effects on currents of mutant HERG. ④ cAMP agonist enhanced the amplitude of HERG current and cAMP antagonist reduced the amplitude in gastric cancer cells. Neither agonist nor antagonist had effect on currents of mutant HERG. ⑤ PKA inhibitor did not influence the HERG current of parental gastric cancer cells and gastric cancer cells transfected with mutant. Conclusions COX-2 regulates HERG current through its catalytic product of PGE2, which binds with its receptor on the gastric cancer cells and alters cAMP level in gastric cancer cells, cAMP interacts with HERG protein by binding with cAMP-binding domain of HERG protein and exerts impact on HERG current. PKA does not participate in this process.

Objective To assess the analytical performance of hs-cTnT and biological variations in healthy population as well as establish hs-cTnT reference intervals. Methods The serum samples from 100 acute myocardial infraction patients and 474 apparently healthy subjects were collected. The functional sensitivity,within- and between-run imprecision were determined. The hs-cTnT assay and con-cTnT assay were evaluated. The serum hs-cTnT levels were detected in apparently healthy subjects to establish reference intervals. Moreover,the long-term and short-term biological variations for hs-cTnT in healthy volunteers were assessed. Results The functional sensitivity of hs-cTnT was 0. 005 μg/L. The within- and between-run precision for lower level control(0. 014 μg/L) and higher level control(2. 500 μg/L) was 2. 97% vs 3. 64%and 0. 66% vs 1.01% ,respectively. The correlation between hs-cTnT assay and con-cTnT assay was good ( R2 =0. 972 ,P ＜0. 01 ). The 99th percentile in apparently healthy subjects was 0. 003 μg/L for women less than60 years, 0.008 μg/L for men less than 60 years, 0.015 μg/L for women above 60 years and 0. 021 μg/L for men above 60 years. The CVa, CVi, CVg and CVt of short-term biological variations in detecting hs-cTnT from 22 apparently healthy subjects were 3.8%, 4. 8%, 49.9% and 58.5%,respectively. The CVa,CVi ,CVg and CVt of long-term biological variations were 5. 3% ,6. 4% ,56. 6% and 68. 3% respectively. Conclusions The analytical performance of the hs-cTnT is better than con-cTnT assay,achieving acceptable level according to guideline. Our experimental result could provide the basis for the new high sensitivity cTnT assay in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction.

Objective To analyze the characterization of cognitive function in Parkinson's disease with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Methods Cognitive function was examined in Parkinson's disease with dementia (PDD) patients ( n = 30) , Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients ( n = 30) and healthy elderly control subjects ( n = 60) . Neuropsychological evaluation contained semantic fluency test, phonemic fluency test, action fluency test, objective and action naming tests. Results In PDD group , the score of semantic fluency test is 9. 33 ±2. 78, 6. 17 ± 1.67 of phonemic fluency test and 7.03 ±2. 34 of action fluency test,it is 6.90 ±2.47, 7.87±2.01,8.30±3. 17 of AD group. The score of objective and action naming tests is 36.33 ±3.39, 17.63 ±2. 17 in PDD group,while AD patients is 33.23 ±3.56 and 22.33 ±2.37. The verbal fluency tests and naming tests were impaired in PDD and AD patients compared with the healthy elderly control group (P ＜ 0. 01 ), phonemic fluency, action fluency and action naming were more impaired in PDD patients compared with the AD group , while semantic fluency and objective naming were more impaired in AD patients (P ＜ 0. 01 ). Conclusions Executive function deficit and naming impairment are found in PDD and AD patients, it shows that PDD is characterized by the addition of cortical dysfunction upon a predominant and progressive fronto-subcortical impairment. There is subcortical dysfunction in AD patients.

Objective To analyze setup errors for irradiation of pelvic carcinoma by online conebeam CT (CBCT) scanning and to calculate the external margins from clinical target volume (CTV) to planning target volume (PTV) in treatment planning. Methods Twelve patients with rectal or prostate cancer were enrolled in this study. Translational errors (x,y,z) and rotational errors (u,v,w) were obtained by using CBCT in radiotherapy. Results The set-up errors were gathered from 229 sets of CBCT in 12patients. The systemic ± random errors on x,y,z, u,v and w axes were (0.49 ± 1.18) mm, (-0. 11 ±3.45) mm, (-2. 00 ± 1.59) mm, 1.14°±0. 67°, 0. 42°±O. 94°and -0. 32°±±0. 68°, respectively. Setup errors in the left-right, anterior-posterior, and superior-inferior directions were 4. 6 mm, 12. 5 mm, and 6. 2 mm, respectively. Conclusions Set-up errors were unavoidable in pelvic carcinoma irradiation. To minimize the influence of set-up errors, we suggest a PTV margin of 5 mm, 15 mm and 10 mm in the leftright, anterior-posterior and superior-inferior directions, respectively.

Objective To analyze the results of survival and local regional control of early-stage breast cancer patients treated with breast-conserving surgery and whole breast radiation therapy, and to explore the factors influencing local control. Methods From October 1995 to September 2005,335 patients with early-stage breast cancer were treated with breast conservative therapy, including 25 with post-operative radiotherapy alone( group A), 194 with sequential chemo-radiotherapy( group B) ,80 with concurrent chemoradiotherapy( group C), and 36 with chemo-radio-chemotherapy (group D). Axillary dissection was performed in 312 patients and sentinel node biopsy in 2. Adjuvant chemotherapy was given to 310 patients. Radiation of 50 Gy in 25 fractions was delivered to the whole breast in 256 patients,and to the breast and regional nodes in 79. Another 10 Gy in 5 fractions was boosted to the tumor bed. The proportion of patients with surgery-radiation interval of less than 4 weeks,4-8 weeks,8-20 weeks and over 20 weeks was 16.4%, 23.6% ,37.3% and 22.7% ,respectively. Concurrent chemo-radiation and" sandwich" modality were delivered in 80 and 36 patients,respectively. Results The median follow-up was 48(25.3-146.7) months. The 5-year local-regional control and ipsilateral breast control rates were 94.5% and 95.6%, respectively. The 5-year disease-free survival,metastasis-free survival and overall survival rates were 88.6% ,93.2% and 98.8% ,respectively. Lymph-vascular invasion and neural invasion were significant factors influencing local control in univariate analysis. No significant differences were found in local control rates among different surgery-radiation intervals or different sequencing of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Multivariate analysis showed that lymph-vascular invasion and reexcision for positive or unknown margin were independent prognostic factors influencing local control. In group A + B, C and D, the frequency of grade Ⅲ skin toxicity was4.5%.80.0%.and 77.0%,respectively(χ2=226.00,P=0.000).Conclusiom Breast conservative therapy for early-stage breast eancer results in good local-regional control and overall survival.Lymph-vascular invasion and reexcision are independent prognostic factors for local control.Surgery-radiation interval and sequencing of radiotherapy and chemotherapy have no impact on local contr01.Grade Ⅲ skin toxicity of the concurTent radio.chemotherapy and the chemo.radio.chemotherapy group is significantly higher than that of the sequential chemotherapy-radiotherapy plus radiotherapy alone group.

BACKGROUND:Laminar flow operating room used in artificial joint replacement can improve the aseptic conditions and can effectively prevent the infections after joint replacement.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the number of colonies during artificial joint replacement in laminar flow operation room and traditional operation room.
METHODS:300 patients with artificial joint replacement in hundred-level laminar flow operation room and 300 patients with artificial joint replacement in traditional operation room were selected, and al the patients had no infection. Then 100 patients with artificial joint replacement were randomly selected from the hundred-level laminar flow operation room and traditional operation room respectively. The number of colonies in operation room of two groups was compared before and after replacement.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no significant difference in the number of colonies between two groups before replacement, and the settling bacteria number of the artificial hip replacement patients in the hundred-level laminar flow operation room was significantly smal er than that in the traditional operation room (P<0.05). The results indicate that compared with the traditional operation room, the hundred-level laminar flow operation room for artificial joint replacement has higher safety and can effectively prevent infections after replacement.
