Objective To study the psychological features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) women who underwent pregnancy termination and to investigate the effects of nursing interference on their psychological state.Methods Psychological nursing and symptomatic nursing were performed in 12 patients.The psychological state was evaluated by Self Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS)and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) before and after the interference.Results SAS and SDS score were remarkably reduced after nursing interference.Conclusions Nursing interference can reduce the negative effects caused by psychological state,reduce their psychological pressure,increase compliance to medical orders and promote recovery.

Objective To investigate the cognition and behaviors of sun-protection and the facial photoaging in a Nanjing population, and to analyze the relationships between them. Methods The objects being investigated in Nanjing (n=974) were divided into 10 groups according to age. The ordinary information, knowledge and behavior of sun-protection and Glogau photoageing type of face were studied by questionnaires. The results were analyzed by a logistic regression model to select the related factors to photoageing. Results The risk of skin photoageing increased with age. Most of the 46-65 years old crowds were type Ⅲ photoageing. Most of the objects being investigated had some knowledge and active awareness of sun-protection and could use some ways to protect themselves from sun. However, most people did not use the sunscreen correctly. Those who had higher level awareness and knowledge of sunprotection suffered less risk from skin photoageing. Sunbath without sunscreen for a long time outside activity was a high risk factor of development to skin photoageing. Shade, broad-brimmed hat and sun-protection in autumn were the protective factors. Conclusion Active awareness and correct methods could help prevent skin photoageing. In order to avoid the damages to skin from ultraviolet efficiently, the accurate ways of using sunscreens should be well understood.

Thiopurine S-methyltransferase (TPMT) is an important and key cytoplasmic enzyme in the metabolism of thiopurine drugs,whose activity can directly determine the amount of thiopurine drugs metabolized to cytotoxic 6-thioguanine nucleotides and consequently influence clinical efficacy and adverse drug reactions of thiopurine drugs.In order to deepen knowledge and role of genetic polymorphism of tpmt in the individualized thiopurine drug treatment,this present review mainly covered the following three frequently concerned aspects,including i) whether or not to determine the activity of TPMT priot to treatment of thiopurine drugs;ii) to genotype or to phenotype;iii) how to choose genotype methods.

OBJECTIVE To explore the predictive value of human telomerase RNA gene component(hTERC) gene amplification and high-risk human papilomavirus(HR-HPV) testing in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN) as a marker for early diagnosis of cervix carcinoma.METHODS Fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) was used to detect the amplification of hTERC of cervical epithelial cells in 72 cases.By using hybrid capture 2(HC-2),two types of the HR-HPV DNA(HPV16/18) of each case were detected.Then,the results were compared with the pathologic diagnosis.The dual-color probe we used was GLP TERC/CSP 3.HeLa cells and lymphocytes from normal marrow were the positive control,while the cervical specimens from healthy outpatients were the negative control.RESULTS hTERC Gene amplification of specimens was tested in 72 cases,the positive amplification rate of hTERC gene in the cervicitis/CINⅠgroup and normal,compared to the cervical carcinomas(100%) and CIN Ⅱ/Ⅲ(68.75%),which showed a significant difference.The rates in CINⅡ and CINⅢ were 60.00% and 83.33%,respectively,which showed a significant difference compared with normal and CINⅠ/inflammation groups.hTERC gene amplification was positive in both HeLa cells and lymphocytes from normal marrow and HC-2 testing was positive in 32 cases of patients containing 11 cases of CINⅡ/Ⅲ,3 cases of cervical cancer,18 cases of cervicitis/CIN1 diagnosed.The positive predictive value(PPV) and specificity(Sp) of hTERC for the high-grade CIN was significantly higher than the PPV and Sp of HC-2 HR-HPV testing.CONCLUSIONS hTERC Gene involves in the progression and occurrence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical squamous carcinoma.As a marker for early diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical squamous carcinoma,the FISH method for hTERC gene is more reliable to differentiate the malignant diseases from the benign ones in cervixes than HC-2 HR-HPV DNA testing.The combined detection of HR-HPV and hTERC gene will provide more effective and suitable management to enhance the early diagnosis rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical squamous carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the value and clinical application of cardiac structure Z scores in children with preoperative tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) by echocardiography. Methods Considering the result of 31 patients who underwent echocardiography in Shenzhen Children’s Hospital before TOF repair from January 2011 to September 2013, the median age was 10 months (range:3 days to 14 years). Other 31 normal children were selected as normal control group with age-and sex-matched, the median age was 10 months (range: 6 days to 13 years). Echocardiographic measurements included the diameter of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT), pulmonary valve diameter (PVD), left pulmonary artery diameter (LPAD), right pulmonary artery diameter (RPAD), pulmonary valve peak velocity (PV-Vmax), tricuspid annulus diameter (TVD), mitral annulus diameter (MAD), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and left ventricular mass (LVmass). Shenzhen Children’s Hospital pediatric echocardiography normal reference values and the regression equation are applied to obtain the forecast average, and using the Z-score formula into the standard value (Z=[M-y]/ MSE ). Results There was no significant difference in body surface area between the TOF group and control group (P>0.05). Compared with control group, the true value of RVOT reduced significantly in TOF group, its Z-score showed negative values increase (-4.87±1.86 vs 0.33±0.93, t=-13.90, P<0.05). PVD, LPAD and RPAD reduced significantly in TOF group, those Z scores showed a negative value increase (-4.15±2.93 vs 0.11±0.85, t=-7.76;-1.35±2.38 vs 0.66±1.17, t=-4.24;-1.47±2.03 vs 0.59±1.04, t=-4.94;all P<0.05). While PV-Vmax increased significantly, and it’s Z score showed a positive value increase (8.38±0.19 vs 0.24±0.98, t=29.50, P<0.05). TVD of TOF patients was slightly larger than the control group (P=0.10), but the Z score was significant greater than the control group (1.00±1.17 vs 0.29±0.52, t=3.06, P<0.05). MV-D, LVEDV and LVmass of TOF patients were slightly decreased than the control group (all P>0.05), but the Z scores of TOF were significantly reduced than the control group (0.25±0.78 vs 0.76±0.65, t=-2.75;-0.92±1.94 vs 0.03±1.01, t=-2.41;-0.83±1.59 vs 0.67±0.69, t=-4.71; all P<0.05). The Z scores of RVOT, PVD, LPAD and RPAD had no significant difference between transannular patch surgery and pulmonary valve-sparing repair patients (-4.89±2.03 vs -4.84±1.67, t=-0.08; -4.73±3.49 vs -3.34±1.75, t=-1.31; -1.88±2.54 vs -0.62±2.00, t=-1.49;-1.89±1.90 vs-0.84±2.15, t=-1.41;all P>0.05). For the Z scores of PV-Vmax, there were no significant difference between transannular patch surgery and pulmonary valve-sparing repair (8.58±1.20 vs 8.12±1.16, t=1.07, P>0.05). Conclusions The Z scores value of cardiac structure can be used in quantitative analysis of RVOT obstruction and development of left ventricular backward of TOF. The Z score of transannular patch surgery is more lower than pulmonary valve-sparing repair patients. The normalized Z score by body surface area correction is important for the preoperative diagnosis and the surgical planning.

Objective: To optimize the ultrahigh pressure extraction ( UPE) process for forsythoside from Forsythia suspensa by Box-Behnken experimental design. Methods:On the basis of single factor screening, a three-factor and three-level Box-Behnken ex-perimental design was employed with liquid/material ratio( X1 ) , extraction pressure ( X2 ) and extraction time ( X3 ) as the independent variables. The response variable was the extraction yield of forsythoside. Results:The optimal UPE conditions for forsythoside were as follows:the ratio of solvent to material (ml·g-1) was 70, the extraction pressure was 151 MPa, and the extraction time was 114 s. With the optimal extraction process, the extraction yield of forsythoside was 13. 15 mg·g-1 . Conclusion:As a novel extraction tech-nology for Chinese herbal medicines, UPE procedure has higher extraction yield, lower extraction temperature, shorter extraction time and less power consumption, which provides a brand-new method for the extraction of forsythoside from Forsythia suspensa.

Objective To investigate the applicability of Cys C-based formulas for prediction of GFR in Chinese patients with CKD.Methods A total of 176 adult patients with CKD including 90 males and 86 females collected from 4 hospitals located in different geographic regions of China (Beijing,Shanghai,Dalian and Changsha) were enrolled in this study from September 2007 to July 2009.The rGFR was measured using 99mTc-DTPA clearance rate two-sample method.Cystantic C was measured by PETIA and PENIA respectively.The results of eGFR in the Larsson formula,Grubb formula,Hoek formula,Filler formula,Stevens formula and Hojs formula were compared with the rGFR to evaluate the calculation coherence,bias,precision,accuracy and the performance of correct phasing of the formulas.Results The mean 99mTc-DTPA clearance was [40.70 ( 19.09 - 86.49)] ml · min-1 · ( 1.73m2 ) -1.Significant difference was witnessed in the evaluation of GFR estimation formulas calculated by PETIA and PENIA (P ＜0.01).ICC and Spearman correlation analysis revealed a significant correlation between eGFR and rGFR.The ICCs of eGFR and rGFR ranged from 0.874 to 0.938.Compared with rGFR,the 30％ accuracy of all the eight evaluation formulas using PETIA and PENIA method were lower than 60％.The percentages of correct phasing in all the 5 stages of CKD were not ideal.With these formulas,percentages of correct phasing from CKD stage 2 to CKD stage 4 were lower than 65％.The eGFRs were underestimated by formulas evaluated by PENIA in CKD stage 1.All the eGFRs were overestimated remarkably by all equations in CKD stage 5.Conclusions None of the eight Cys C based formulas are ideal for estimation of GFR in Chinese CKD patients,and they can not be applied to Chinese patients directly.For this patient population,further studies will be needed to develop a more accurate Cys C-based GFR estimation formula that includes ethnicity,age and other factors.

Objective To screen genes differentially expressed between dermal papilla cells from occipital and vertex scalp of patients with androgenic alopecia (AGA) through a 3D culture system.Methods Dermal papilla cells isolated from the occipital scalp tissue of patients with AGA were cultured in a 2D system for several days.Then,the third-passage dermal papilla cells were subjected to a 3D culture with the presence of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) for 72 hours (experimental group).The dermal papilla cells isolated from the vertex scalp tissue of patients with AGA,which were cultured in a 3D system with dimethyl sulfoxide,but not DHT,served as the control group.Subsequently,total RNA was extracted from the cells and reversely transcribed into cDNA followed by labeling with Cy3 and hybridization to a NimbleGen microarray.Gene ontology (GO) and pathway analysis was carried out to screen differentially expressed genes between the experimental and control group.Real time PCR was conducted to validate the results of microarray analysis.Results As the genome-wide expression profile analysis showed,there were 622 genes differentially expressed between the experimental group and control group,of which,359 were up-regulated and 263 were down-regulated in the experimental group compared with the control group.The above results were corffirmed by real time PCR.GO analysis revealed that the up-regulated genes,such as the CHEK1 and Tobl genes,were mainly involved in the inhibition of cell proliferation and promotion of cell apoptosis,while the down-regulated genes,such as the BAMBI,EFNA3,Dlx3 and UCGC genes,were associated with the acceleration of cell proliferation as well as the growth and development of epidermis.Pathway analysis showed that cell circle-controlling molecules were the most abundant molecules.Conclusions Numerous signalling molecules and pathways are involved in the development of AGA,which are mainly responsible for the modulation of cell circle,proliferation and apoptosis.
