Objective To assess the effect of quality control circle on blood pressure and metabolic syndrome in patients with newly diagnosed primary hypertension. Methods Review health examination in 132 cases of newly diagnosed patients with primary hypertension as the control group, routine health education was given. The 128 cases of patients with newly diagnosed primary hypertension as the intervention group and the prospective study was done.The quality control group of quality control circle was set up in order to improve treatment adherence for patients with newly diagnosed primary hypertension, and the nursing intervention was implied for the intervention group for 6 months. Blood pressure and metabolic syndrome were compared between the two groups. Results The compliance rate was improved from 56.3%(72/128) to 90.6%(116/128) after intervention in the intervention group. There was significant difference before and after intervention (χ2=62.57, P<0.01).The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, triglyceride (TG), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and waist circumference were (151.6±11.3) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (98.6±12.1) mmHg, (1.98±0.36) mmol/L, (6.37±1.25) mmol/L, (92.88±6.90) cm respectively before intervention in the intervention group and were (132.6±14.3) mmHg, (82.5 ± 12.5) mmHg, (1.53 ± 0.17) mmol/L, (5.34 ± 1.06) mmol/L, (83.29 ± 5.47) cm respectively after intervention. There was statistically significant difference before and after intervention in the intervention group(t=7.11-12.79, P<0.05). The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, TG, FBG and waist circumference were (150.4 ± 10.6) mmHg, (99.4 ± 10.8) mmHg, (1.94 ± 0.39) mmol/L, (6.52 ± 0.29) mmol/L, (91.37±6.03) cm respectively before intervention in the control group and were (145.3±13.7) mmHg, (92.6± 10.9) mmHg, (1.86 ±0.31) mmol/L, (6.02±0.27) mmol/L, (93.86±6.52) cm respectively after intervention. There was significant difference in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure before and after intervention in the control group (t=3.38, 5.09, P<0.05). But the difference was not statistically significant in TG, FBG and waist circumference (t=1.85, 1.27, 1.93, P>0.05). The difference of systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,TG, FBG and waist circumference between two groups was statistically significant after the intervention (t=6.77-12.84,P<0.05). The intervention group was significantly better than the control group. Conclusions The quality control circle may improve treatment adherence and it is helpful to improve the metabolic syndrome and it has high clinical application value for the treatment of primary hypertension.

Natural killer ( NK) cells are important innate effector cells and play a vital role in maintaining homeostasis through potent cytotoxic activity and cytokine production. Recent findings show that NK cells can also shape adaptive immune responses by in-fluencing a variety of immune cells. In addition to direct interactions with other immune cells,NK cells can indirectly stimulate or inhibit adaptive immune response via influencing infected cells and pathogen load. Abundant studies have highlighted the positive regulatory functions of NK cells, while their negative regulatory functions have increasingly attracted attention in recent years. Here, we review recent findings on negative regulation of adaptive immune response by NK cells, discussing the involved effector cells and function mechanism,and demonstrate how this negative regulation influences the overall outcome of adaptive immunity in infection and tumor disease.

Aim To investigate the effect of neferine on proliferation and invasion of human hepatocellular car-cinoma. Methods HepG2 and Bel-7402 cells were cultured in vitro with different concentrations of nefer-ine, then cell proliferation was observed by CCK-8 as-say; cell invasion was observed by transwell invasion assay; the protein expression of RhoA, RhoC and ROCK was detected by Western blot. Results CCK-8 results showed that neferine could significantly inhibit cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner compared with the control group. Transwell invasion assay showed that cell invasion was significantly decreased with neferine 3 μmol · L-1 . Western blot results showed that RhoA, RhoC and ROCK protein expres-sion was decreased when neferine was co-incubated with hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Conclusion Nef-erine can inhibit proliferation and invasion of HepG2 and Bel-7402 cells, which is mediated mainly by the inhibition of RhoA, RhoC and ROCK protein expres-sion.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinical efficacy of semiextended intramedullary nailing of the tibia using a suprapatellar approach for proximal tibial fractures.

METHODSFrom January 2013 to January 2014, a total of 16 patients with unilateral proximal tibial fractures, 14 males and 2 females, underwent closed reduction and internal fixation with TRIGEN™ META-NAIL™ via the suprapatellar approach. The average age was 42.2 years old (ranged, 26 to 57 years old). Radiographic and clinical follow-up examinations were performed at a minimum of 1 year after surgery. Measurements included surgery time, complications, bone healing time, tibial alignment, knee range of motion, pain scoring (visual analogue scale) and functional outcome (Lysholm knee score).

RESULTSThe average surgery time was (75.7±8.3) minutes (ranged, 65 to 95 minutes). No obvious complications were recorded. Average duration of follow-up was (15.6±8.1) months (ranged, 12 to 24 months). Fifteen patients attained radiological bone union for a mean time of (3.6±1.8) months (ranged, 3 to 5 months). At the final follow-up, all tibial alignments were good, and no patients complained of anterior knee pain. Mean arc of knee motion was (124.4±18.8) degrees for the affected extremity compared with (127.5±16.7) degrees for the contra-lateral knee. The total scores of Lysholm knee score ranged from 77 to 92, average 86.4±12.3.

CONCLUSIONFor proximal tibial fractures,the semiextended intramedullary nailing technique via a suprapatellar approach can obtain satisfactory clinical outcomes with simplicity in reduction and fixation, minimal complications, and good recovery of limbs function.
