Objective To study the expression of POKemon and pl4ARF genes in colorectal cancer cell lines. Methods The expressions of POKemon and pl4ARF were detected in 5 human colorectal cancer cell lines by RT-PCR and immucytochemistry method. Results The expressions of POKemon were positive in cell lines of SW480, SW480/M5, SW620 and LOVO, and were negative in HCT116. The expression of pl4ARF was positive in HCT116 and negative in other cell lines. Conclusion POkemon is expressed positively in colorectal cancer cell lines and its function is negatively correlated with pl4ARF.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasonography(CDUS)and molybdenum mammography for breast tumor.Methods 86 breast diseases which were diagnosed by the surgery and pathology,were prospectively analysed,40 in mammary carcinoma,and 46 in mammary benign disease.All the patients were examined with CDUS,CDFI and molybdenum mammography.Diagnosis was made in every case compared using two methods(CDUS and molybdenum mammagraphy)with any using only one method.Results There is significant difference between mammary carcinoma and mammary benign disease in CDUS.The mammary carcinoma patients'blood stream signal is abundant. The diagnostic veracity of using both CDUS and molybdenum mammography for breast tumor is obvious higher than that of the any only one method.Conclusion Combined CDUS with molybdenum mammography which is the optimal methods of the mammary image examination,can improve the diagnostic veracity of breast tumor.

Objective To study the difference on knowledge-attitude-practice about rational drug use in tumor patients between urban and rural in Shanxi province, and to provide evidence for further development on health education of rational drug use. Methods A questionnaire investigation was conducted among tumor inpatients in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from May 22 in 2014 to May 30 in 2014. Results A total of 990 tumor patients were involved, including 499 urban patients accounting for 50.4 % and 491 rural patients accounting for 49.6 %. The tumor patients′awareness rates of 'the purchase of antibiotics needs a prescription' in urban and rural areas were the highest, 74.9 % (374/499) and 67.0 % (329/491), respectively, and the awareness rates of 'the meaning of OTC on the medicine package' were the lowest, 22.0 % (110/499) and 18.1 % (89/491), respectively. 96.2%(480/499) urban and 92.7%(455/491) rural tumor patients had developed a correct attitude towards 'irrational drug use will affect health and even life-threatening' which ranked the highest, and the rates of correct attitude towards 'adverse drug reaction is the medical accident' were the lowest, 55.5 %(277/499) and 48.1 % (236/491), respectively. The correct behavior rates of 'read the drug instructions' in urban and rural tumor patients were the highest, 97.8% (488/499) and 95.1 % (467/491), respectively, and the correct behavior rates of 'the expired drug recovery to nearby regular pharmacy' were the lowest, 9.2 %(46/499) and 7.5 % (37/491), respectively. Conclusions The knowledge-attitude-practice about rational drug among urban and rural tumor patients in Shanxi province is not optimistic. It should be provided that individual health education in daily work in order to promote rational drug use, prolong survival time and improve the quality of life for tumor patients.

Objective To analyze the constitution of in-patient death causes in Sharxi Cancer Hospital from 2005 to 2010. Method Statistical analysis of 1277 hospitalized cases from 2005 to 2010 in Shanxi Cancer Hospital was retrospectively conducted. Results The overall case fatality rate of hospitalized patients from 2005 to 2010 was 0.86 ％ (1277/146820),the rates were 1.16 ％,1.05 ％,0.99 ％,0.85 ％,0.84 ％, 0.64 ％, respectively, with a declining trend, and the differences among them was statistically significance (x2 =45.763,P ＜0.001).Total mortality rate of male hospitalized patients (1.26％) was higher than that of women (0.53％),and the difference was statistically significant (x2=215.367,P＜ 0.001).Analysis of cancer death cause revealed that lung cancer possessed the leading cause of cancer death with the ratio of 36.4％(456/1253). The analysis of top 10 death causes showed that the majority of the population in cancer death causes were men,cadres of staff and workers,secondary school education level people,and people over the age of 60. Conclusion The consitution of in-patient deaths in Shanxi Cancer Hospital is defined, which could provide a scientific basis for disease prevention and control.

Objective To explore the regulation of ROS level and ROS-triggered downstream events on SK-N-MC Ewing sarcoma cells upon apoptasis induction by 2-Methoxyestradiol (2-ME). Methods To detect the reversibility of apoptosis and the alternation of activity of respiratory chain, mitechondria transmembrane potential (△ψm), and cellular ROS level and to explore their association with flow cytometry, clark oxygen electronic node analysis, drug-removal design, and permeability transition (PT) pore stablizing agent. Results SK-N-MC cells were induced to ROS-dependent apoptosis. Apoptosis occured irreversibly after2-ME treatment for 3 h. Upon 2-ME treatment, the activity of respiratory chain was inhibited and the ROS generation was accelerated; the △ψm underwent the increasing within 3h but decreasing after 3h which could be reversed by PT pore stablizing; the ROS level underwent the continuous increasing and PT pore stablizing had no obvious effect on it. Conclusion 2-ME causes the acceleration of ROS generation via inhibiting the activity of respiratory chain and elevating the level of △ψm. ROS plays a signaling role and when total ROS accumulate to a threshold, the PT pore opening and the collapse of △ψm could be induced irreversibly and cell is eventually introduced to death.

Objective: To assess blood levels of renal function related influencing factors with baseline clinical parameters for predicting the risk of 8-year survival in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods: A total of 293 CHF patients admitted in our hospital from 2006-07 to 2009-11 were enrolled. The patients were followed-up until 2014-6-30, the end point was death. According to followed-up results, they were divided into 2 groups: Survival group,n=107 and Death group,n=186. All patients received routine renal function and electrolytes examination including blood levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid, sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, anion gap and phosphorus; GFR was calculated by MDRD formula. Baseline clinical parameters as left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were measured by echocardiography; blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded. The risk factors for 8-year survival in CHF patients were analyzed. Results: Compared with Survival group, Death group had increased LVEDD, urea nitrogen, creatinine and uric acid, while decreased LVEF, HR, GFR, blood sodium and calcium, allP<0.05. Univariate analysis indicated that LVEDD, LVEF, GFR, urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid, blood sodium, calcium and phosphorus had the better predictive value for the risk of 8-year survival in CHF patients, allP<0.05. Multivariate analysis presented that LVEDD, GFR and blood sodium had the highest predictive value for the risk of 8-year survival, allP<0.001; the next one was blood calcium,P<0.01. Conclusion: LVEDD, GFR, blood sodium and calcium were the independent predictors for the risk of 8-year survival in CHF patients.

Objective: To analyze and to predict the 1 year re-admission risk in patients of chronic heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF) by echocardiography.
Methods: A total of 313 HFrEF patients in our hospital community from 2007-01 to 2008-12 were studied. The patients were followed-up for (6-7) years and the end point was 1 year re-admission. All patients received routine echocardiography and the parameters included left ventricular ejection fraction of (LVEF), left ventricular diameter (LVd), pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), mitral regurgitation (MR), tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and pericardial effusion. Based on the above 6 parameters, the risk factors for 1 year re-admission were analyzed.
Results: Univariate analysis indicated that MR (HR=1.437, 95%CI 1.190-1.737, P=0.000), TR (HR=1.288, 95%CI 1.056-1.572, P=0.013) and pericardial effusion (HR=1.560, 95%CI 1.050-2.318, P=0.028) had better predictive value for 1 year re-admission. Multivariate analysis presented that MR (HR=1.404, 95%CI 1.159-1.701, P=0.001) took ifrst place for predicting the 1 year re-admission and pericardial effusion took second place (HR=1.410, 95%CI 1.030-1.928, P=0.032).
Conclusion: MR, TR and pericardial effusion were the independent predictors for 1 year readmission in HFrEF patients;while MR and pericardial effusion were the independent risk factors for 1 year re-admission.

OBJECTIVETo make a study of the influence of the intervene of traditional Chinese medicine on cytokine level in benign prostatic hyperplasia.

METHODThe patients were divided into treatment group (group A), control group (group B) and healthy group (group C) with the randomly compared researching method. Group A were given Qianliening Tang (QLNT), daily potion, two times a day. Group B were given Qianliekang, three times a day, three pills each time. The course of both treatment lasted for 8 weeks.

RESULTBefore treatment, TNF-alpha, IL-17/IL-10, IL-4 in group A and B are obviously out of order compared with group C (P < 0.01). After the treatment, TNF-alpha, IL-17 in group A decreased dramatically and IL-10, IL-4 increased, which shows great differences compared with those before treatment and with group B (P < 0.01), but still can't reach to group C level.

CONCLUSIONQian liening Tang can efficiently regulate the level of suppressive inflammatory cytokines and proinflammatory cytokines. It provides scientific experimental basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Objective:To explore the quality of life of patients with advanced lung cancer and its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 220 patients with advanced lung cancer in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from June 2017 to June 2019 were selected. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core-30 (QLQ-C30) and Quality and Life Questionnaire of Lung Cancer (QLQ-LC13) were used to evaluate the quality of life of patients. Combined with the clinicopathological data of the patients, multiple linear regression method was used to analyze the factors affecting the quality of life of patients with advanced lung cancer.Results:A total of 220 questionnaires were issued, and 184 (83.6%) valid questionnaires were returned. There were 102 cases (55.4%) of male and 82 cases (44.6%) of female. Among the 5 functional areas of QLQ-C30, the score of social function was low [(60.2±11.8) points], and the score of cognitive function was high [(78.5±13.4) points]; among the 3 symptom areas, the score of pain was high [(36.8±10.3) points]; among the 6 single items, the lack of appetite was more serious [(58.5±10.5) points]. Among the 10 symptom areas of QLQ-LC13, shortness of breath and cough were more prominent [(34.6±9.5) points and (33.6±6.8) points]. The quality of life of female patients, patients with older age, patients with fewer children, patients with more organ metastases, patients with other diseases and patients with chemotherapy was poor (all P < 0.05), while there was no correlation between smoking status, occupation and education level and the quality of life of advanced lung cancer patients (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:The quality of life of advanced lung cancer patients is closely related to gender, age, the number of children, the number of metastatic organs, with or without diseases and treatment methods. Targeted intervention measures are helpful to improve the quality of life of patients.
