Objective To compare the mesothelin expressions in 3 human pancreatic cancer cell lines between in vitro and in vivo and the developing speed among the subcutaneous tumors implanted with the 3 human pancreatic cancer cell lines in nude mice.Methods The human pancreatic cancer cell lines ( SW1990,BxPC3 and PANC1 ) were cultured and then were implanted subcutaneously into left axillas of nude mice.The volumes of these subcutaneous tumors were recorded every week to estimate their developing speed.The mice implanted with SW1990 and BxPC3 cells were observed for three weeks,while the mice implanted with PANC1 cell were observed for five weeks.The Western blot method was used to measure the expressions of mesothelin in the 3 kinds of cells and subcutaneous tumors,while immunohistochemical staining was applied to determine the expressions of mesothelin in 3 kinds of subcutaneous tumors.Results The sequence of quantities of expressions of mesothelin in these cell lines in vitro were BxPC3 ＞ PANC1 ＞ SW1990,and the sequence of quantities of expressions in vivo were SW1990 ＞ BxPC3 ＞ PANC1.One handrued percent of the tumors grew out successfully,and the sequence of speeds of their growth was SW1990 ＞ BxPC3 ＞ PANC1.Conclusions The mesothelin expressions among 3 kinds of pancreatic cancer cell line are different.The developing speeds of tumors originated from different subcutaneous tumors in nude mice are also different,and there is no association between them.

Objective To investigate and determine the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in different anatomical regions of normal pancreas.Methods A total of 383 volunteers with normal pancreas were included in this study.Single-shot echo planar imaging diffusion weighted imaging (SSEP-DWI; b value =0,500 s/mm2) was employed to determine the ADCs in the head,neck,body and tail parts of the pancreas.Statistical analysis was performed by using Kruskal-Wallis and Wilcoxon signed rank tests.Results The ADCs in the head,neck,body and tail parts of the pancreas was (1.52 ± 0.29) × 10-3,( 1.64 ± 0.34) ×10-3,(1.67±0.35) × 10-3,(1.58 ±0.31) × 10-3 mm2/s,the Kruskal-Wallis test results showed a significant difference of mean ADCs among the different anatomical regions (chi square =44.8748,P ＜0.0001 ).Wilcoxon signed rank test results showed the mean ADCs differed remarkably between the head and neck ( P ＜ 0.0001 ),head and body ( P ＜ 0.0001 ),head and tail ( P =0.0008 ),neck and tail (P =0.0062 ),body and tail (P ＜0.0001),respectively.The mean ADCs between the neck and body was not significantly different (P =0.1181 ).Conclusions The mean ADC values of normal pancreas vary significantly within different anatomical regions,which can serve as a guide for DW1 and ADC in clinical application and research of pancreatic diseases.

Objective To explore the selection of medical unit and the major influencing factors among residents in Hubei province,to allocate reasonably the health resources and provide reference for developing medical policy.Methods With the method of multi-stage stratified cluster sampling,household survey were done.The multilevel statistical model was used to analyze the influencing factors of the first diagnosed agencies.Results The proportions of residents who chose primary medical institutions as the first diagnosed agencies were 64.5％ in urban areas and 84.3％ in rural areas,and the visiting rate decreased as the level of health care institutions increased.The selection of first diagnosed agencies among patients were related to district (city or village,OR=0.463,95％CI..0.254-0.842),age (OR=1.023,95％CI:1.010-1.036),the educational attainment (OR＞1.000),illness duration in days (OR=0.945,95％CI:0.917-0.973) and number of days in bed (OR=0.854,95 ％ CI:0.825-0.884).Conclusion The residents who chose primary medical institutions as the first diagnosed agencies took a large proportion.District,age,the educational attainment and the illness duration in days had influence on the selection of the first diagnosed agencies among residents.

Objective:To describe the status and influencing factors of nurse-related empowerment perception in inpatients with chronic diseases.Methods:Totally 586 inpatients with chronic diseases from 6 class A hospitals in Shanghai from November 2019 to September 2020 were investigated by the Chinese version of Patient Perception of Patient-empowering Nurses Behaviors (PPPNBS), Self-Efficacy of Chronic Diseases (SECD6), Nurse-patient Trust Scale (NPTS), Chinese version of Chronic Illness Resource Survey (CV-CIRS) and a general information questionnaire which was designed by researchers.Results:The total score of PPPNBS was (134.98 ± 59.60) points, and the average score for each item was (6.14 ± 2.71) points. The total score of SECD6 was (38.81 ± 9.28) points. The total score of NPTS was (141.94 ± 11.42) points, and the total score of CV-CIRS was (57.90 ± 15.24) points, which were positively correlated with empowerment perception through Pearson correlation analysis. Multiple Linear Regression showed that the degree of education, the number of forms and compliance of health education, the times of admission, participation intention in medical decision-making, the dimension of Symptom Management in Self-efficacy, three dimensions of consistency, respect, and confidence in knowledge and technology in Nurse-Patient Trust degree and four dimensions of medical staff support, organization support, family and friends support, media and government support in Chronic Illness Resource were influencing factors of patients ′ empowerment perception (adjusted R 2 value was 0.636, F value was 79.441, P<0.01). Conclusions:Compared with the foreign level, the perception of nurses ′ empowerment of inpatients with chronic diseases is at a lower level, and self-efficacy, nurse-patient trust and chronic disease resource support are all at a medium level, which still need to be improved. Nurses should allow them to participate in their treatment, improve the control of life and reduce their anxiety.
