Objective To explore the effect of nursing students' factors on the teaching effect of nurse patient communication experience . Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among 208 nursing students who received nurse-patient communication experience teaching. Research content included nursing students' subjective factors and objective factors, and non-technical expertise. The training effect factors affecting the personal factors questionnaire, self-made demographic characteristics questionnaire andnursing soft skills assessment scale were adopted to make evaluation and SPSS 17.0 was used to make correlation analysis to the obtained data. Result For respondents, the factors such as one-child in general demographic characteristics and social work experience had correlation with the teaching effect (r=0.270, 0.725; P=0.000, 0.010). Nursing students' non-professional and technical capacity, personal characteristics and the teaching effect were correlated with the teaching effect, among which the nursing students' interper-sonal relationship, organization and management skills, self-efficacy, learning power had the correlation coefficients with the teaching effect of 1.000, 0.725, 0.192 and 0.470, P<0.05, respectively.

Objective To study the expression of Adiponectin (AD) and its receptors Adiponectin receptor 1 (Adipo R1) and Adipo R2 in the synovial fluids and the synovium of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods ELISA was used to determine the levels of AD in 23 RA and 23 osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Real-time PCR and Western blot techniques were employed to study the expression of AD, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 in the synovium of 10 RA and OA patients. Results It was observed that approximately twice more adiponeetin in the synovial fluids of patients with RA than with OA. Adiponectin and AdipoR1, but not AdipoR2 mRNA, were significantly expressed in synovium of RA patients in comparison with OA. Adiponectin and AdipoR1 protein were wuch more expressed in synovium from RA than those from OA. Conclusion High expression of Adiponectin and AdipoRl is likely to contribute to the formation of inflammatory joints in RA.

Objective To investigate the expression of six-transmembrane epithelial antigen of the prostate (STEAP) in prostate cancer and its relationship with prostate specific antigen (PSA).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed of 65 consecutive patients verified for prostate canc-er by prostate biopsy or post-operational pathological examination.The clinical stage was classified ac-cording to TNM system and the pathological grade was classified according to Gleason score.STEAP expression in 65 prostate cancer samples (T1 9,T2 14,T3 17,T4 25;high differentiation 37,moder-ate differentiation 12 and low differentiation 16) was studied by using STEAP monoclonal antibody (Santa Cruz Biotech,USA) and SP immunohistochemical staining.Positive staining gray values were introduced to describe the intensity of STEAP expression.STEAP expression level was analyzed with respect to stage,grade,serum total PSA and free/total PSA (f/t PSA) ratio respectively.Results The serum total PSA concentration and f/t PSA ratio in all cases was (27.65±8.34) ng/ml and 0.15~0.04 respectively.STEAP was positively stained in 63 patients (T1 7,T2 14,T3 17,T4 25; high differentiation 37,moderate differentiation 11 and low differentiation 15).The mean STEAP-positive staining gray values in stage T1,T2,T3 and T4 of prostate cancer were 26.8%,45.6%,62.3% and 76.5%,respectively and in high,moderate and low differentiation group were 71.2%,52.8%,and 34.4% respectively.The positive staining gray values of STEAP expression was posi-tively correlated to the clinical stage of cancer and negatively correlated to the Gleason score and the ratio of f/t PSA (P<0.01,respectively).There was no significant relationship between STEAP ex-pression and serum total PSA concentration (P>0.05).Conclusion STEAP expression may act as one of new markers to the invasion degree and pathological grade of prostate cancer.

Background and purpose: Phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) gene is a kind of tumor suppressors, which has been reported to be underexpressed in endometrial carcinoma (EC) tissues by several reports. However, the biological effects and possible mechanisms of PTEN on EC have been known less. In this study, we tried to investigate the effects and possible mechanisms of PTEN on the invasion and migration of endometrial carcinoma cells and to provide a potential target for endometrial carcinoma therapy. Methods:The recombinant plasmid pIRES2-ZsGreen1-PTEN was rebuilt by gene recombination technology;The plasmid was transferred into HEC-1B cells and the cells transfected with pIRES2-ZsGreen1 plasmid were used as control;The expression of PTEN was observed by fluorescence microscope and Western blot assay;Cell migration and invasion was determined by the wound healing assay, transwell migration and invasion assays respectively;The Western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression of ATP-dependent tyrosine kinase (AKT), phosphorylated-AKT (p-AKT) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2). Results:The agarose gel electrophoresis showed a stripe of 1.2 kb which was same to PTEN cDNA;The sequence analysis showed the PCR products owned the same sequence with the coding region of PTEN cDNA in GenBank, suggesting the recombinant plasmid was constructed successfully;The green light of cells observed by fluorescence microscope and the Western blot analysis showed the expression of PTEN was upregulated in the cells transfected with the recombinant plasmid, suggesting the plasmid expressed successfully in HEC-1B cells;The wound healing assay as well as transwell migration assay showed ectopic expression of PTEN suppressed cell migration;The invasive capacity of HEC-1B cells was significantly decreased upon transfection with PTEN plasmid compared to control and untreated groups;Moreover, compared with the control groups, the expression of p-AKT and MMP-2 was downregulated, while there was no significant alteration of the expression of AKT. Conclusion:PTEN could suppress cell migratory and invasive ability of endometrial carcinoma cells by suppressing the phosphorylation of AKT followed by the decrease of MMP-2.
