Objective To investigate the micrometastatic lesion of tumor stem cells in the axillary swollen lymph nodes of breast cancer patients and the influence of miR30a on its invasive ability ,and to explore the feasibility of miRNAs anti‐breast cancer treatment .Methods The tumor stem cell‐like breast cancer cells were separated from the axillary swollen lymph nodes in breast cancer patients and cultured .miR30a oligonucleotide fragment was synthesized and transfected into human primary generation breast cancer cells by using adenovirus ,meanwhile the breast cancer cell line MDA‐MB‐231 was taken as the experimental control and the transfection efficiency was assessed by the fluorescence microscopy .The changes of tumor cell proliferation and invasiveness before and after transfection were detected by the Transwell chamber in vitro invasion assay .Western blot was used to detect the ALDH1 ,Vimentin and N‐Cadherin protein expression .Results The Transwell chamber in vitro invasion assay showed that the pri‐mary generation breast cancer cell had more strong invasive ability than MDA‐MB‐231 cell line ,their invasion indexes were (75 .3 ± 3 .2)% and (58 .4 ± 2 .8)% respectively ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) ,and after transfecting miR30a ,the in vitro invasiveness ability in these two kinds of cells were significantly weakened and their invasion indexes were (21 .4 ± 1 .9)% and (28 .2 ± 2 .3)% respectively ,the difference compared with the control group showed the statistical significance (P<0 .05) .Conclu‐sion The ALDH expression in partial axillary hyperplasia and swollen lymph nodes in the patients with breast cancer is increased , and the tumor micrometastasis may exist ,which should be completely cleaned in operation .miR30a inhibits the expression and inva‐sive ability of tumor stem gene .

Objective To investigate the preventive and therapeutic effects of different doses of penehyclidine hydrochloride preoperative medication on the catheter -related bladder discomfort during general anesthesia recovery period.Methods 160 adult patients who underwent general anesthesia for elective surgery were randomly dividided into four groups.40 patients in each group received intravenous injection 30min before surgery with penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.005mg/kg (group A),0.010mg/kg (group B),0.015mg/kg (group C),or normal saline (group D).All patients were catheterized with a 12 Fr Foley's catheter and the balloon was inflated with 8mL normal saline after anesthesia induction .The bladder discomfort was assessed during recovery in the post -anesthesia care unit .The severity of bladder discomfort was graded as mild , moderate and severe .Results The incidence of moderate and severe bladder discomfort in group B and group C (group B:20.0%,5.0%;group C:12.8%,2.5%) were significant lower compared with group A and group D ( group A:38.5%,12.8%;group D:46.0% 15.4%) (χ2 =7.834, 6.764,8.163,14.172,8.362,6.943,15.413,17.512,all P<0.05).There was no significant difference between group B and group C , group A and group D .Conclusion Hydrochloride penehyclidine preoperative administration with 0.010mg/kg or 0.015mg/kg can effectively control the incidence of catheter discomfort during general anesthesia recovery period and 0.010mg/kg is appropriate for the elderly .

Objective:
To assess plantar arch index (AI) and prevalence of flat feet in school-age children (7-12 years old) in Shanghai and evaluate the relationship between flat feet with age, gender, weight status (BMI) and occurring sides, and to provide a reference for the prevention of flatfeet.
Methods:
Three-dimensional foot measuring instruments were used to measure bilateral foot length, medial arch height, AI and arch height ratio (AHR) in school-age children in Shanghai. Statistical analysis of these foot parameters was performed.
Results:
A total of 3 226 children between aged 7 and 12 in Shanghai were measured with AI of (0.27±0.05) and AHR of (3.02±1.89). Prevalence of flat feet in the group of 7 to 12 year old children was 56.1%. Prevalence of flatfeet decreased significantly with age: 72.6% at 7 years old and 37.9% at 12 years old. Boys had a significantly greater risk for flat feet than girls: the prevalence of flat feet was 62.9% for boys and 47.8% for girls (OR=1.81, 95%CI=1.57-2.10). This risk was independent of age but related to gender. The risk of flat feet in boys was always higher than that in girls at every age. For children aged 7-8, being overweight was not significantly related to the occurrence of flat feet. However, for children aged 9-12 who were overweight were more likely to have flat feet than those of normal weight. The OR increased with age: from 1.44 (95%CI=1.03-2.03) at 9 to 2.96 (95%CI=1.68-5.23) at 12. There was no difference on which side flat feet would occur (χ2=0.95,P=0.33).
Conclusion
This finding shows that prevalence of flat feet is influenced by age, gender and weight status. AI and prevalence of flat feet in children aged 7-12 decreases with age, and boys have significantly higher prevalence of flat feet than girls. Overweight children aged 9 or older have a higher risk of flat feet.

Healthy China action is a key to the Healthy China initiative. Promoting Healthy China is faced with such challenges as coordinating actions of the society at large, and reliance on individual incentives. To overcome these difficulties, the authors propose to adopt a concentrating-on-the-main-points approach. As proposed, the government should focus on the key points of the overall situation and uphold the Healthy China initiative, and base all the actions on individual health actions as the focus. Community health service centers are expected to manage individual health actions so as to cover the population of the country. In this view, the government should formulate the policy of initiating and managing individual health actions by community health service centers.
