Objective To study the effect of multi-disciplinary teamwork (MDT) nursing mode on perioperative care to breast cancer patients. Methods One hundred and twenty breast cancer patients undergoing surgical operations were evenly randomized into the observation and control groups by random digit number table. The control group was treated with routine nursing care and the observation group with MDT nursing mode. Result The rate of complications (like subcutaneous effusion, lymphatic edema and skin flap necrosis) in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group and the hospital stay was significantly shorter than that of the control group as well (all P<0.05). Conclusion The MDT nursing mode can reduce the rate of complications, shorten the hospital stay and relieve patient′s depression.

This study examined the change of p16(INK4a) and PNCA protein expression in myocardium after injection of hIGF-1 gene modified skeletal myoblasts into post-infarction rats. HIGF-1 gene modified skeletal myoblasts (hIGF-1-myoblasts) were injected into hind limb muscles of 18 post-infraction rats (experimental group). Primary-myoblasts were injected into 18 post-infraction rats (control group) and 12 non-infarction rats (sham group). Expression of p16(INK4a) and PCNA protein in myocardiums were separately detected immunocytochemically 1, 2 and 4 weeks after the inuection. The level of hIGF-1 and rIGF-1 protein in serum and myocardium were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Compared with the sham group, the percentage of p16(INK4a) and PCNA positive cells reached a peak after 1 week in the control group and the experimental group (P<0.01). Moreover, the percentage of p16(INK4a)-positive cells in the experimental group was lower than in control group whereas the percentage of PCNA-positive cells was lower in the control group than in the experimental group (P<0.01). The percentage of p16(INK4a)-positive cells in the experimental group and the percentage of PCNA-positive cells in the control group were close to that in the sham group from the 2nd week (P>0.05). ELISA analysis disclosed that the myocardium level of rIGF-1 protein increased gradually in the controls and especially in the experimental group (P<0.01). The serum level of rIGF-1 decreased significantly in post-infraction rats, but these conditions were improved in the experimental group (P<0.01). The hIGF-1 protein in serum and myocardium were detected from the 1st week to the 4th week in the experimental group. Statistical analysis revealed significant associations of myocardium level of hIGF-1 protein with expression of p16(INK4a) and PCNA protein (r=-0.323, P<0.05; r=0.647, P<0.01). It is concluded that genetically hIGF-1-myoblast provides a means for constant synthesis and release of hIGF-1. It could not only improve the expression of rIGF-1 and PCNA protein in myocardium, but also suppress the expression of p16(INK4a) protein for 30 days in post-infraction rats. Myoblasts-mediated IGF-1 gene therapy may provide a new alternative for the clinical treatment of heart failure.

Objective To establish serum NGAL reference range of healthy populations in Xi'an Area.Methods 2 665 cases (aged 6 to 95 years old,male 1 370,female 1 295) of health-check people were collected from March 2014 to October 2016 in Medical Examination Center of Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital,and 682 cases (aged 0 to 6 years old,male 356,female 326) were collected from preschool children of prevention.Serum NGAL concentration of them were analysed by immunoturbidimetry method with the Automatic Biochemical Analysis Assembly Line of Beckman-AU5800,and the detection data for statistical analysis.Then established the reference range of serum NGAL population of different age and different sex in Xi'an.Results The serum NGAL levels in healthy subjects showed a skewed distribution,which were preschool children under 6 years of age 37.66±23.12 ng/ml,6~15 years 39.25±25.34 ng/ml,16~49 years 46.68±27.06 ng/ml,and 50~ 69 years 57.82±29.13 ng/ml.Compared the first two with the latter,there was a significant difference (t=0.589,P< 0.05).The serum NGAL levels of over 70 years were 61.87 ± 32.64 ng/ml,and there was a significant difference between the ages of 15 and 49 and over 70 years (t=8.529,P<0.01).At the same time,the serum NGAL was closely correlated with age (r=0.298,P<0.01).But there was no significant difference in serum NGAL level between male and female (t=0.263~0.542,all P>0.05).87ng/ml was the upper limit of the reference value for the age of 50 years.Conclusion The level of serum NGAL was related to age and increased with age,but not with gender.

Objective:To investigate the expression of survivin and MMP-9 in the eutopic endometrium of patients with endometriosis(EMs).Methods:Eighty patients with endometriosis were selected as EMs group,four of them were in clinical stage Ⅰ,25 in stage Ⅱ,44 in stage Ⅲ and 7 in stage Ⅳ,47 in the proliferative phase and 33 in the secretory phase of the menstrual cycles.Twenty patients with hysteromyoma were selected as control group,including 7 patients in the proliferative phase and 13 in the secretory phase of the menstrual cycles.The expression levels of survivin and MMP-9 were determined by immuno-histochemical method.Image-Pro Plus 6.0(IPP),the special-purpose system for quantitative measurement of medical images,was used to analyse the results quantitatively.Results:Both survivin and MMP-9 were found positive in the plasma of the endometriosis.Both survivin and MMP-9 expression levels were higher in EMs group than those in the control group(P <0.01).Besides,survivin was over expressed with no relation to the menstrual cycle of the endometium.Survivin expression was higher in endometriosis stage Ⅱ than that of the stage Ⅲ(P > 0.05).There was no difference in survivin expression within other stages(P > 0.05).While MMP-9 expression had no difference between all the endometriosis stages(P > 0.05).There was a close relationship between survivin and MMP-9 expression levels in 80 eutopic endometfium of endometriosis(r=0.262,t=2.860,P < 0.05).Conclusion:The over expression of survivin and MMP-9 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.

Objective:
We aimed to evaluate changes towards liver fibrosis during entecavir(ETV)treatment by non-invasive fibrosis markers in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients who need antiviral therapy.
Methods:
Totally 303 HBeAg negative treatment-naive CHB patients were enrolled and liver biopsy was performed before starting antiviral therapy in this study. Totally 196 patients who need antiviral therapy were treated with ETV for at least 3 years. A clinical and virological evaluation was performed at baseline and again after 1, 2 and 3 years during ETV treatment. AST-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) was used to assess dynamic changes of liver fibrosis in HBeAg negative CHB patients after 1, 2, 3 years of ETV treatment.
Results:
All enrolled patients experienced liver biopsy at baseline. According to Metavir fibrosis stages, F1, F2, F3 and F4 patients were 107, 125, 54 and 17, respectively. The APRI score enabled the correct identification of patients with severe fibrosis (METAVIR F3-F4). The APRI values significantly decreased in F2 and F3 patients after 1 year ETV therapy (
