Objective To apply the health education intervention based on protection motivation theory in community female patients with stress urinary incontinence,in order to establish a health behavior and to control urinary incontinence.Methods 96 female patients with stress urinary incontinence were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group by random number table method,the control group received routine health education,the experimental group received health education based on protection motivation theory.The ICI-Q-SF score,pelvic muscle exercise compliance scale score,urinary incontinence coping efficacy score were compared between the control group and the experimental group.Results The ICI-Q-SF score of the experimental group after the intervention was 5.43 ± 1.77,which was significant lower than that in the control group,7.96±2.98,t=4.88,P＜0.01.The urinary incontinence coping efficacy scores of experiment groups after the intervention was 17.63±1.85,which was higher than that in the control group,13.49±2.46,t=-9.09,P＜0.01.There were 29 cases accounted for 63.04％ with good compliance and 17 cases accounted for 36.96％ with poor compliance in experimental group after intervention,14 cases accounted for 31.11％ with good compliance and 31 cases accounted for 68.89％ with poor compliance in control group after intervention,the difference was statistically significant,x2=9.306,P＜0.05.Conclusions Health education based on protection motivation theory can promote the coping efficacy and health behavior of community female patients with stress urinary incontinence and can effectively control urinary incontinence symptom.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and laboratory examinations in incident dialysis effect on the prognosis of elderly patients undergoing hemodialysis.Methods Ninety-three patients aged 65 years or older initiating hemodialysis were enrolled from Hemadialysis Center of Beijing Hospital from January lst,2007 to June 30th,2016.The duration time of HD of all patients was more than three months.Patients were divided into death group and non-death group.The clinical characteristics and laboratory examinations were compared between the two groups.Cox proportional hazards regression was used for the multivariate analysis to determine independent prognosis factors.Results The average year of patients was 74.2±6.5 years old with 43 months of median time of follow-up.The first two causes of death were infection (n =25,49.0％) and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (n =16,31.4％).Cox single factor regression analysis showed that the older ages,diabetic nephropathy being the cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD),complicating with diabetes mellitus or congestive heart failure,the higher Charlson cardiovascular diseases score,ALB being under 35 g/L were correlated with poor outcome respectively(P＜0.05).Cox multivariate regression analysis indicated that older ages (HR =1.056,P =0.021),diabetic nephropathy being the cause of ESRD (HR =2.661,P =0.001),the higher Charlson cardiovascular diseases score (HR =1.675,P =0.010),central venous catheters being vascular access(HR=1.167,P=0.048) on incident dialysis were the main risk factors for mortality in elderly patients.Conclusion The older ages,diabetic nephropathy being the cause of ESRD,the higher Charlson cardiovascular diseases score,central venous catheters being vascular access on incident dialysis are independent risk factors influencing survival of elderly patients.

OBJECTIVE To explore the protective effect of polysaccharides from Salvia Chinensis Benth. (PSSC) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and D- galactosamine (GalN)- provoked mouse acute liver failure (ALF) and the possible molecular mechanism. METHODS Kunming mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal control, model, model+PSSC 30 and 100 mg·kg- 1 groups. PSCC was given once a day and for a week. To establish an ALF model, mice of model and PSSC groups were ip injected with LPS 10 μg·kg-1 and GalN 700 mg·kg-1 at the end of PSSC treatment. The microscopic structure of the liver was detected by HE staining. Serum and hepatic biochemical parameters of glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic- pyruvic transaminase (GPT), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH) were detected by colorimetric methods. The relative content of hepatic reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by DCFH-DA fluorescent probes. Levels of cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β(IL-1β) and IL- 6 in the serum and liver were detected by ELISA. Activity of caspase 3 in liver homogenates was detected by aspase 3 activity assay kit. RESULTS Compared with normal control group, in the liver of model group, hepatocytes were arrayed in disorder, cytoplasm of hepatocytes shrank, and boundaries between cells were fuzzy, the infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells and tissue hemorrhage could be detected, pathological scores were elevated significantly (P<0.01), levels of MDA and ROS in the liver of ALF model mice were elevated to 2.2 and 4.3 times that of the normal control, respectively (P<0.01), the level of GSH decreased to 51% (P<0.01), and the activities of SOD, CAT and GSH- Px declined to 74%, 36% and 42%, respectively (P<0.01). Levels of TNF- α, IL- 1β and IL- 6 in the serum and liver of model group were increased (P<0.01), and caspase 3 activity was increased to 5.3 times that of the normal control (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the number of surviving mice in PSSC groups increased, liver pathological scores declined (P<0.01), levels of MDA and ROS increased (P<0.01), levels of GSH, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the liver and serum declined (P<0.01), and caspase 3 activity decreased (P<0.01). CONCLUSION PSSC is able to alleviate LPS and GalN-induced ALF in mice. Inhibition of hepatic oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and cell apoptosis is possibly implicated in the protective effect of PSSC.

Objective To construct recombinant adeno-associated virus and lentivirus carrying siRNA of TIMP-1 and to investigate the efficiency of infection and short-term inhibitory effect of TIMP-1 gene expres-sion on rat hepatic stellate cells. Methods One pair of siRNA which could effectively inhibit expression of the TIMP-1 gene in HSC-T6 was screened and cloned into AAV vector and lentiviral vector to construct the recombinant AAV/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP and Lenti/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP. AAV/GFP and Lenti/GFP as neg-ative control were also obtained. Experiments were assigned to five groups: AAV/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP, AAV/GFP, Lenti/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP, Lenti/GFP group and mock group. Rat HSC-T6 cells were infected by these recombinant viruses at a concentration of MOI by 10. To monitor the efficiency of infection, fluores-cence microscope and flow cytometer were used. After 7 d post-infection, Western blot was used to detect the TIMP-1 protein expression. Results HSC-T6 had no significant changes after infection. The efficiency of infection in AAV/GFP and Lenti/GFP group were 72.7% and 70.0%, AAV/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP and Lenti/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP group were 64.58% and 61.86%. The protein expression levels of TIMP-1 in HSC-T6 cells at 7 d post-infection by the recombinant AAV and Lentivirus were decreased 40.0% compared with those in mock control and normal HSC-T6 (P<0.05). Conclusion Recombinant AAV/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP and Lenti/siRNA-TIMP-1/GFP could effectively infect HSC-T6 with similar efficiency and suppress the expression of TIMP-1 in rat HSC-T6 remarkably.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic and prognostic features of Claudin-low breast cancers (CLBC). Methods: Tissue microarray sections were scored semiquantitatively for the immunohistochemical expression of claudin-1, -3, -4, -7 and -8 in 233 cases of invasive breast cancers collected from Qingdao Central Hospital from January 2010 to December 2011. Results: The expression rate of Claudin-3 (72/212, 33.9%) and -4 (56/212, 45.2%) was most similar, and Claudin-4 showed the highest expression. Twenty one cases (21/212, 9.0%) were diagnosed as CLBC, with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounted for the highest proportion (11/21, 52.4%). Among the CLBC cases, the invasive carcinoma no special type (66.7%, 14/21) and metaplastic carcinoma (14.3%, 3/21) were mostly seen, while metaplastic squamous carcinoma did not show Claudin-low pattern. Compared to the non CLBC in this cohort, CLBC had higher proportion of histologic grade 3 and tumors larger than 2 cm, and the proportions were slightly lower than TNBC. Patients with CLBC had lower 5 year disease-free(P>0.05) and overall survival rates(P=0.018). Conclusion CLBC shows distinct clinicopathologic and prognostic features comparing to other subtypes, and is associated with poor prognosis.

Objective To analyze the causes of death of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients,and to compare the long term survival rate between elderly patients and non-elderly patients and between diabetic nephropathy (DN) patients and non-DN patients at our hemodialysis center during last 20 years.Methods A total of 317 MHD patients were collected,and divided into elderly (≥60 years) and non-elderly (＜60 years) groups based on the age at starting hemodialysis.Besides,data of gender,primary diseases,and the direct cause of death in maintenance hemodialysis patients from 1996 to 2016 were collected.Results Cardiogenic diseases,infections,and cerebrovascular accidents were the three leading causes of death.The mean dialysis age was shorter in elderly MHD patients than in non-elderly MHD patients[(51.8 ± 45.7) months vs.(81.6 ± 66.5) months,t =4.271,P=0.000]with a lower survival rate (x2 =32.422,P =0.000).The mean dialysis age was significantly lower in DN patients than in non-DN patients[(44.1±33.8) months vs.(69.4±60.6) months,t=3.632,P =0.000)] with a lower survival rate (x2 =13.361,P =0.000).The overall survival rate was 59.8％ after the fifth year of MHD,was 33.3％ after the 10th year,was 8.4％ after the 20th year,in our dialysis center.Conclusions The long-term survival rate of patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis in our center is as high as that in the developed countries and in other hospitals in Beijing.The top three death causes are cardiac diseases,infections,and cerebrovascular accidents.For old or DN patients,the overall prognosis is poor.

Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of combined examination of pre-operative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CD44v6 for colorectal cancer patients. Methods A total of 140 patients with complete clinical data pathologically diagnosed as colorectal cancer from December 2012 to December 2017 in Hainan Hospital of PLA General Hospital were enrolled. Finally, 69 validated cases excluding CEA (-) or CD44v6(-) patients were registered according to pre-operative CEA detection and immunohistochemistry results of CD44v6. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the progression-free survival (PFS) time for single factors. Multiple-factor analysis was done by using Cox proportional hazard model. Results Sixty-nine patients included 29 cases of double positive and 40 cases of double negative in CEA and CD44v6. There were statistical significances of the expressions of double positive and double negative in patients with different gender, M stage, TNM stage. Double positive was more apparent in female (χ2 = 4.42, P= 0.04), presenting of metastasis (χ2=5.06, P=0.02) and advanced cases (χ2=4.38, P= 0.04); univariable analysis showed the N stage (P=0.00), M stage (P=0.00), TNM stage (P=0.00) and double positive/double negative in CEA and CD44v6 (P= 0.04) were likely to affect the PFS, however, multivariable analysis showed that N stage (HR= 0.15, 95 ％ CI: 0.03-0.86, P= 0.03), TNM stage (HR= 23.83, 95 ％ CI: 3.65-155.51, P=0.00) were the independent prognostic factors for PFS. PFS in double positive patients was shorter than that in double negative ones [24.0 months (3-84) vs. 31.0 months (8-94), P=0.04]. Conclusion Pre-operative combined examination of CEA and CD44v6 could be helpful in judging the prognosis for colorectal cancer patients.

Objective:To explore the value of tumor diameter to preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) ratio (TCR) in predicting prognosis of patients with non-metastatic colorectal cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 144 patients with colorectal cancer in Hainan Hospital of PLA General Hospital between July 2012 and December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into the low TCR group and the high TCR group according to the optimal value of TCR in predicting the disease-free survival (DFS) determined by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The clinicopathological features of both groups were analyzed, and the influencing factors of DFS were also analyzed by using Cox proportional hazard model.Results:ROC analysis showed that TCR had a certain value in predicting DFS, and area under the curve (AUC) was 0.614 (95% CI 0.507-0.722); when the value of TCR was set at 0.690, the sensitivity and specificity of predicting the 3-year DFS rate was 46.3% and 70.9%, respectively. According to 0.690 of TCR, there were 50 cases in the low TCR (< 0.690) group and 94 cases in the high TCR (≥0.690) group. There were no statistically significant differences in the high and low TCR between the two groups for patients stratified by gender, age, tumor location, differentiation degree, invasive depth, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage (all P > 0.05). Univariate analysis showed that TCR, preoperative CEA level and TNM stage played a role in predicting DFS of patients (all P < 0.05), while Cox multivariate analysis indicated that TCR < 0.690 ( HR = 2.369, 95% CI 1.279-4.388, P = 0.006) and Ⅲ stage in TNM stage ( HR = 2.214, 95% CI 1.346-3.640, P = 0.002) were the independent risk factors of influencing DFS (all P < 0.01). The 3-year DFS rate of patients in the low TCR group was lower than that of those in the high TCR group (62.0% vs. 83.0%, P = 0.007). Conclusion:TCR could have a certain value in judging the prognosis of non-metastatic colorectal cancer patients, and low TCR patients have a poorer prognosis.

Radiomics and radiogenomics are used to provide comprehensive tumor biological characte-ristics and further clinical information by extracting,screening and analyzing the most valuable quantitative ra-diomics features. In recent years,numerous studies have shown that radiomics plays a role in the diagnosis, treatment and predicting efficacy and prognosis of lung cancer. Radiogenomics shows a great value in the pre-diction of lung cancer gene phenotype and individualized precision treatment by combining radiomics features with genomics,proteomics and so on. Radiomics and radiogenomics are non-invasive,quantitative,and repro-ducible,and they can provide multidirectional tumor biological characteristics,which are expected to be widely used in the precise medical treatment of lung cancer in the future.
