Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2016;36(6):185-187
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of carcino embryonic antigen (CEA),squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCC),human papilloma virus-E7 (HPV-E7) in cervical carcinoma.Methods A total of 107 cases of women patients treated in hospital from July 2013 to July 2015 accorded to the pathological examination results were divided into cervical cancer group 60 cases and CIN group 47 cases,another 50 cases of healthy people were selected as control group, and serum expression levels of HPV-E7, CEA and SCC in the three groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results The serum HPV-E7, CEA and SCC in cervical cancer group were significantly higher than those in CIN group and control group (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in serum HPV-E7, CEA and SCC between CIN group and control group.The levels of serum HPV-E7, CEA and SCC in stage I-II were significantly lower than those of stage III-IV in patients with cervical cancer, and the difference with statistically significant between two groups(P<0.05).The area under the ROC of HPV-E7 was significantly higher than that of CEA and SCC (Z=2.914,2.951, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the area under the ROC between CEA and SCC (Z=1.580,P=0.057).Conclusion The serum HPV-E7, CEA and SCC in cervical cancer patients are significantly higher, the diagnosis value of HPV-E7 is higher which is expected to become one of the effective indicators of cervical cancer diagnosis.
2.The relationship between emotional intelligence and the ways of occupational stress coping in nurses
Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2008;17(5):435-437
Objective To investigate characteristics of emotional intelligence(EI)and the ways of occupational stress coping in nurses as well as the predictive validity of EI on coping strategies.Methods 464 nurses from general hospitals were collected and evaluated with psychometric instruments including:Wong's Emotional Intelligence Scale(WEIS)and Nurse Ways of Coping Questionnaire.Data were conducted by Logistic regress analysis according to key themes.Results (1)Nurses' demographic characteristics had effects to the ways of occupational stress coping and emotional intelligence.However,there was no statistical difference of El varied with education levels(P>0.05).(2)Both problems solving and positive recognition are main coping styles of nurses towards occupational stress.Either avoidance or self-reproach was seldom coping strategies of nurses toward occupational pressures(2.60±0.55;2.60±0.75;1.37±0.69;respectively).(3)El was correlated with coping styles(r=-0.123~0.253,P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion Four dimensions of EI positively or negatively predicted six kinds of occupational stress coping strategies separately.

Thrombolytic therapy is a safe and effective way to cure thrombosis. Developing the safe,effective and cheap therapeutic thromolytic agents are important to prevent and cure thrombosis. In recent years,several fibrinolytic enzymes have been found in the resources of Asian traditional fermented foods,such as Japanese natto,Korea Chungkook-Jang,Chinese Douchi and fermented shrimp paste. These fibrinolytic enzymes secreted by food-grade microorganisms are safe and effective,and are potent thrombolytic agents. The physical and biochemical properties,thrombolytic characteristics,and the potential applications of these fibrinolytic enzymes from Asian fermented food,are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the correlation between patient' s age and expression of Ki-67 or microvessel density in primary hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods The expression level of Ki-67 and the microvessel density in the hepatocellular carcinoma tissues were detected by immunohistochemical method,and the correlation between age and expression of Ki-67 or microvessel density were analyzed.Results In 48 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma tissues,Ki-67 expressed to varying degrees,but the positive rate was 83.3 % (40/45),and there was no expression in corresponding noncancerous tissues (P < 0.01).Microvessel density marked by CD34 in cancer tissues and noncancerous tissues were 32.17±8.06 and 10.83±2.85 respectively.Microvessel density of cancer tissues was higher than noncancerous tissues (P < 0.01).Both levels of Ki-67 expression and microvessel density in hepatocellular carcinoma were negatively correlated with the age (r =-0.418,P =0.003 and r =-0.443,P =0.002 respectively).Conclusion Both levels of Ki-67 expression and microvessel density in hepatocellular carcinoma are negatively correlated with patient' s age,which may suggest worse prognosis for the younger patients.

GRP78,as endoplasmic reticulum resident chaperone,is highly induced by a variety of tumor microenvironmental stresses,such as hypoxia and glucose deprivation.GRP78 is implicated in tumor cell proliferation,apoptosis,invasion,metastasis and angiogenesis.Recent evidence indicates that GRP78 levels is correlated with pathological grade,stage and prognosis for the majority of solid tumors.In addition,GRP78 plays an important role in drug tolerance and knockdown of GRP78 has been shown to sensitize malignant cells.GRP78 could not only be a good biomarker to predict cancer progression and chemo-responsiveness,but also an appealing target for the development of a more selective chemotherapy.

Objective To use event-related potentials to identify whether face recognition is implicit, and to investigate specificity, race and inversion effects in face recognition. Methods Upright and inverted photographs of Eastern and Western human faces, upright dog faces and a mobile phone were presented in random order for 150 ms to 20 healthy subjects. The subject's attention was diverted away to search for the letter ”f ” in 6 small letters below the photos. Behavioral data were recorded synchronous with event-related potentials (ERPs). Results The P100,N170 and P170 potentials were enhanced and accelerated by faces compared with non-face images. The amplitude of P100 had the strongest correlation with the type of stimulus, showing the biggest amplitude with the mobile phone image (9.5 μV ), followed by the dog face (7.5 μV ). The weakest amplitude was evoked by the human face (6.9 μV). The amplitude of N170 responded most strongly to the human face, followed by the mobile phone (0.5 μV) and the dog face ( -1.9 μV). The P170 amplitude was largest with the human face and the latency was shortest (7.8 μV and 162.2 ms), followed by the dog face (5.2 μV, 174.4 ms) and the mobile phone (5.1 μV,173.5 ms). ERP components were not affected by the orientations or races of the faces in this situation. No difference was found in the late positive component evoked by the human faces and other images. Conclusions Implicit face recognition may depend on the specifics of the stimulus, although no race effect or inversion effect was detected using this procedure.
