Objective To prepare retrovirus which carry GFP gene and are able to label living cells simply and rapidly. Methods The recombinant retroviral vector pLNCX-GFP was constructed by inserting 780?bp GFP cDNA fragment into the MCS site of retroviral plasmid pLNCX. Both ecotropic packaging cell line ΦX-Eco and amphotropic packaging cell line ΦX-Ampho and PA317 were transfected by pLNCX-GFP with liposome. The supernate collected from transfected packaging cells was used to infect a variety of tumor cell lines and vascular endothelia cell lines. Results When packaging cells were transfected by retroviral vector pLNCX-GFP, the GFP expression could be observed in 25%~40% of cells and GFP retrovirus then could be detected, however G418 resistant clones showed more stable GFP expression and higher retrovirus titer. The GFP retrovirus from different packaging cell line showed variant ability to infect tumor cell lines and vascular endothelia cell lines and the tumor cells infected by GFP retrovirus showed stable GFP expression in vitro. GFP transduced tumor cells could grow in syngenic animal and continue expressing GFP. Conclusion Using GFP retrovirus to label target cells represent an important advantage over conventional plasmid because they can efficiently transfer GFP gene into target cells and GFP can be stably expressed in target cells no matter in vitro or in vivo.

Objective? To explore the effects of Omaha system-based nursing intervention on patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods? Totally 200 patients receiving PCI in Ningbo First Hospital from February 2016 to November 2017 were selected using convenient sampling and divided into the control group (n=100) and the observation group (n=100) according to the random number table. Patients in the control group received conventional nursing care, while patients in the observation group received nursing care based on Omaha system. The incidence of postoperative vascular complications was evaluated between the two groups. Self-Depression Scale (SDS), Self-Anxiety Scale (SAS) and the nursing satisfaction questionnaire were used to evaluate the effects of intervention. Results? The incidence rate of postoperative vascular complications was lower in the observation group than in the control group (P< 0.05); the SAS and SDS scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05); and the satisfaction at discharge of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P< 0.05). Conclusions? Omaha system-based nursing interventions can reduce the incidence rate of postoperative vascular complications, ameliorate patients' negative emotions and improve their satisfaction, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the current situation of researches on the fear of disease progression at home and abroad, and sort out the research hotspots and development context.Methods:The relevant literature about fear of disease progression published by China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science core collection database were systematiclly searched, and the search period was from January 1, 2002 to June 24, 2022. CiteSpace 5.8.R3 software was used for visual analysis of relevant literature.Results:A total of 340 articles were retrieved from CNKI and 1 199 articles were retrieved from Web of Science core collection database. The countries and institutions with the highest number of international publications were Germany, Technical University of Munich and The University of Sydney, with close cooperation among authors and poor inter-institutional cooperation. Domestic research focused on the influencing factors of fear of disease progression and its relationship with depression, anxiety, social support and quality of life, while foreign research focused on breast cancer and its survivors, depression, anxiety, quality of life, reliability and validity of the questionnaire and the feasibility of intervention.Conclusions:The number of articles published at home and abroad is generally on the rise. Compared with foreign countries, there is still a certain gap in the research on fear of progression in China. In the future, China should timely pay attention to the development trends and hot frontiers in this field internationally, so as to promote the research and development of fear of disease progression in China.

Objective:To explore the values of ultrasound, pathology combined with inflammatory indicators in predicting high nodal burden (HNB) in patients with early breast cancer and to construct a nomogram to provide reference for individualized diagnosis and treatment.Methods:The ultrasonographic, pathological features and preoperative inflammatory indicators of 378 female patients diagnosed with early breast cancer confirmed by pathology in the South Hospital of the Sixth People′s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University from January 2014 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. They were randomly divided into training set ( n=302) and test set ( n=76) in a ratio of 8∶2, and the baseline data of the two groups were compared. The optimal cutoff values of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) were obtained by ROC curve. In the training set, with axillary high lymph node load (≥3 metastatic lymph nodes) as the dependent variable, independent influencing factors of HNB were identified by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses, and the nomogram was established. The test set data were used to verify the model. The discrimination, calibration and clinical applicability of the model were assessed by the area under the ROC curve (AUC), C-index, the calibration curve, Brier score and the decision curve analysis, respectively. Results:There were no significant differences in all variables between the training set and the test set (all P>0.05). ROC curve analysis results showed that AUCs of NLR, PLR and LMR were 0.578, 0.547 and 0.516, respectively, and the optimal cut-off values were 2.184, 150 and 3.042, respectively. Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age, pathological type, histological grade, Ki-67, lymphovascular invasion, NLR, PLR, ultrasonic characteristics (maximum diameter of primary tumor, shape, long/short diameter of lymph node, cortical thickness, cortical and medullary boundary, lymph node hilum, lymph node blood flow pattern) were correlated with HNB of early breast cancer (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that ultrasonic characteristics (maximum diameter of primary tumor >2 cm, effacement of lymph node hilum, non-lymphatic portal blood flow), lymphovascular invasion, Ki-67>14% and NLR>2.184 were independent risk factors for HNB in early breast cancer ( OR=7.258, 8.784, 6.120, 8.031, 3.394 and 3.767, respectively; all P<0.05) and were used to construct the nomogram model. The AUC of the training set was 0.914 (95% CI=0.878-0.949), C-index was 0.914; The AUC of the test set was 0.871 (95% CI=0.769-0.973), C-index was 0.871, indicating good discrimination. Calibration curve and Brier score were 0.090, indicating high calibration degree of the model. The clinical decision curve indicated good clinical benefit. Conclusions:The nomogram based on ultrasonic characteristics (maximum diameter of primary tumor, lymph node hilum, lymph node blood flow pattern), lymphovascular invasion, Ki-67 and NLR can effectively predict the risk of HNB in patients with early breast cancer, and provide a reference for precision diagnosis and treatment to avoid excessive or insufficient treatment.
