Objective To explore stimulative of posttraumatic growth(PTG) of head-injured patients associated with limb movement disorder,in order to provide reference for psychological nursing intervention.Methods Phenomenological methodology was used in the study.A semi-structured interview was conducted on seven head-injured patients with limb movement disorder recruited by purposive sampling method.Data were analyzed by Colaizzi's analysis procedure.Results Through interview,the following four themes were summarized:positive state of mind and coping style of patients; patients' high level of self-efficacy; social support; high quality of medical services.Conclusions In order to promote PTG of head-injured associated with limb movement disorder patients,nurses should strive to adjust the patient mentality and coping strategies,improve their self-efficacy levels,help patients get support from the community,at the same time should also focus on quality of medical services.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of intralesional betamethasone versus triamcinolone acetonide acetate in the treatment of active alopecia areata. Methods A total of 160 patients with active alopecia areata were divided into two groups, test group (n = 100) treated with intralesional betamethasone, and control group (n = 60) treated with intralesional triamcinolone acetonide. Both injections were given once every 3 weeks for 12 consecutive weeks. Results After 12-week treatment, the cure rate, response rate, and total response rate were 60.0%, 32.0% and 92.0% in the test group, respectively, compared to 41.7%, 31.67% and 73.3% in the control group, respectively. A significant increase was observed in the cure rate and response rate in the test group compared with the control group (χ2 = 10.25, 5.06, P < 0.01 and 0.05). During the treatment course, 8 (8%) patients in the test group and 9 (15%) patients in the control group developed localized atrophy of the scalp; 8 (8%) patients in the test group and 3 (5%) patients in the control group developed localized folliculitis; no significant difference was observed between the two groups in the occurrence of adverse reactions (P> 0.05). Conclusion Intralesional use of compound betamethasone injection has a notable therapeutic effect on alopecia areata.

Objective To detect the change of brain activity under different depth of anesthesia (DOA)noninvasively. Methods The Lempel-Ziv complexity C(n) was used to analyze EEG and its four components (delta,theta, alpha, beta), which was recorded from SD rats under different DOA. The relationship between C(n) and DOA was studied. Results The C(n) of EEG will decrease while the depth of anesthesia increasing and vice versa. It can be used to detect the change of DOA sensitively. Compared with power spectrum, the change of C(n) is opposite to that of power spectru,. Only the C(n) of delta rhythm has obvious variations induced by the change of DOA, and the variations of delta is as similar as the EEG's. Conclusion The study shows that the desynchronized EEG is replaced by the synchronized EEG when rat goes into anesthesia state from awake, that is just the reason why complexity and power spectrum appear corresponding changes under different DOA. C(n) of delta rhythm dynamic change leads to the change of EEG, and the delta rhythm is the dominant rhythm during anesthesia for rats.

Objective To check the changes of endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) number of patients with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) in the peripheral blood,investigate their clinical significance.Methods The number of EPC in blood was determined by FCM method in 30 patients with ALCL and 10 healthy cases as the control group.Results The number of EPC in the peripheral blood of patients with ALCL before treatment was significantly higher (15.530±28.659/μl) than that in control group (0.515 ±0.294/μl,P ＜ 0.001).The number of EPC of ALCL patients in the high-risk groups (21.521±36.057/μl) and the middle-risk groups (16.830±24.273/μ1) differently increaasd than that of the low-risk group (6.508±7.356/μl,P ＜ 0.01),but between the high-risk groups and the middle-risk groups there was no significant value (P ＞ 0.05).There were significant difference between the number of EPC of ALK+-ALCL (8.367±9.609/μl) and ALK-ALCL (22.541± 20.845/μl) patients (P ＜ 0.01).The survive curve before 60 weeks had significant difference between groups of ＞20/μl and ＜20/μl of EPC.Conclusion EPC may be correlated with progression of the disease in a certain degree.Dynamic observation with the level of EPC may be used to evaluate the treatment outcomes and act as a prognostic marker for ALCL.

Aim To investigate the effect of Jinlida on cholesterol-related genes in skeletal muscle in fat-in-duced insulin resistance ApoE-/ - mice. Methods Ten male C57 BL/6 J mice were selected as normal group ( NF );50 male ApoE-/ - mice with a high-fat feeding after 16 weeks ( HF) were divided into model group, rosiglitazone ( LGLT ) , Jinlida low dose group ( JLDL, 0. 95 g · kg-1 · d-1 ) , Jinlida medium dose group ( JLDM, 1. 9 g·kg-1 ·d-1 ) , Jinlida high dose group (JLDH, 3. 8 g·kg-1·d-1), which were per-formed intragastric administration for 8 weeks. Oil red O staining of mouse skeletal muscle was used for fat ac-cumulation. Insulin receptor ( INSR) , insulin receptor body substrate-1 ( IRS-1 ) , low-density lipoprotein re-ceptor ( LDLR ) , cholesterol sensor ( SCAP ) mRNA and protein expression in mouse skeletal muscle were measured by quantitative reverse transcription PCR ( RT-PCR ) and Western blot. Results Compared with NF group, fasting blood glucose ( FBG) , choles-terol ( TC ) , triglyceride ( TG ) and low density lipo-protein cholesterol ( LDL-C ) of HF mice were signifi-cantly elevated, while high-density lipoprotein ( HDL-C ) significantly decreased ( P < 0. 05 ) . Compared with HF group, Jinlida group could reduce to varying degrees FBG, TC, TG and LDL-C in mice, and in-crease HDL-C ( P <0. 05 ) . Jinlida could downgrade fasting serum insulin ( FINS ) level, and improve the insulin sensitive index ( ISI ) ( P < 0. 05 ) . Jinlida could obviously improve skeletal muscle fat accumula-tion of mice. Compared with NF group, skeletal mus-cle INSR, IRS-1, LDLR mRNA and protein levels of HF group were significantly decreased ( P <0. 05 ) , while SCAP mRNA and protein level increased signifi-cantly (P<0. 05). Compared with HF group, Jinlida could increase to varying degrees INSR, IRS-1, LDLR mRNA and protein levels ( P < 0. 05 ) , and lower SCAP mRNA and protein levels ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclu-sion Jinlida can alleviate fat-induced insulin resist-ance in ApoE-/ - mice through regulation of cholester-ol-related gene expression.

Objective To investigate the status of nutritional risk and nutritional support in general surgery patients, and to explore their association with postoperative complications and length of hospital stay.Methods From January 2014 to February 2015, 853 inpatients in general surgical wards in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University were enrolled.Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) was used to estimate nutritional status of patients.The patients were divided into 2 groups based on whether they received nutritional support.The length of hospital stay in days and postoperative complications were recorded.The association of nutritional risk and nutritional support with complications and length of hospital stay were analyzed.Results In the 853 surgery patients, the prevalence of nutritional risk was 31.1％ (265/853) and that of malnutrition was 5.4％ (46/853).The incidence of postoperative complications was 14.2％ (121/853).The patients with nutritional risk had a significantly higher incidence of postoperative complications compared to those without nutritional risk [29.8％ (79/265) vs.7.1％ (42/588) , P ＜ 0.000] , and a longer hospital stay [(12.5 ±6.4) days vs.(4.2 ±3.9) days, P ＜0.001].In the 853 patients, 27.3％ (233/853) received nutrition support.In the patients with nutritional risk, those on nutritional support had a significantly lower incidence of complications compared with those not on nutritional support [16.7％ (32/192) vs.64.4％ (47/73), P＜0.05] and shorter hospital stay [(7.5±4.6) days vs.(16.3±8.5)days, P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions According to NRS 2002 result, a fairly high percentage of general surgery patients may have nutritional risk.Patients with decreased body mass, less dietary intake, and at higher age may be more likely to have nutritional risk.Nutritional risk may be associated with a higher incidence of postoperative complications and longer hospital stay.Patients at nutritional risk appear to be more likely to benefit from nutritional support.

The protein product of metastasis-associated in colon cancer 1 (MACC1) gene induces the activation of hepatocyte growth factor/mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (HGF/c-Met) signaling pathway through transcriptionally activating c-Met gene and upregulating its expression to further promote tumor invasion and metastasis.High level expression of MACC1 is associated with the occurrence and metastasis of a wide variety of human tumors, such as colon cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer etc.In addition, the overexpression of MACC1 is also closely associated with clinical TNM stages and distant metastasis.Thus, MACC1 can serve as an independent indicator of tumor metastasis and prognosis, and become a new target for gene therapy.

This study is to investigate the protection effect of schisandrin B (Sch B) against oxidation stress of HK-2 cells induced by cisplatin and the mechanisms involved. HK-2 cells were cultured and divided into different groups: solvent control group, cisplatin exposure group, positive group, Sch B treatment group. Cell viability and toxicity were evaluated by MTT and LDH assay. GSH level and SOD enzymes activities were also measured. DCFH-DA as fluorescence probe was used to detect ROS level by fluorescence microplate reader. Nrf2 translocation was detected by Western blotting. Real time Q-PCR was used to detect expressions of NQO1, HO-1 and GCLC mRNA level. The results showed that Sch B could significantly inhibit the decline of cell viability induced by cisplatin treatment (P < 0.05) and the protective effect was in a dose dependent manner. Furthermore, Sch B treatment significantly inhibited the increase of ROS level induced by cisplatin and reversed the decrease of GSH level (P < 0.05). When Sch B concentration was up to 5 micromol x L(-1), SOD enzyme activities were also enhanced significantly compared with that of the cisplatin group (P < 0.05). It was shown that Sch B could cause nuclear accumulation of Nrf2 in association with downstream activation of Nrf2 mediated oxidative response genes such as GCLC, NQO1 and HO-1. These results suggested Sch B could protect against the oxidative damage of HK-2 cells induced by cisplatin via the activation of Nrf2/ARE signal pathway.

Objective To investigate the quality of life(QOL)of patients with stroke and its related factors.Methods The QOL of eighty-two stroke survivors was assessed in terms of SF-36 scores,motor impairment (Fugl-Meyer),disability[Barthel index(BI)]and depression(HAMD)more than one year after their first episode.Their social demographic characteristics such as age,gender,education and income were recorded,as were the characteristics of their disease and any complications.Multiple regression analysis was used to analyse the related factors.Results The average age of the 82 subjects was 61.89 + 9.81 years(range,33-81).56 of them were male (68.2％).Scores on all items of the SF-36 for these subjects were lower than those of a normal population.Correlation analysis showed income,cost for medical care,regular exercise,movement function,ability in the activities of daily living,depression,hypertension and shoulder pain were significantly correlated with most of the SF-36 domain scores.Motor function,income and cost for medical care explained 34％ of the variance in SF-36 scores.Motor function was the single most important factor.Conclusion The major factors affecting the QOL of stroke patients are motor function,level of income and cost for medical care.Paying more attention to rehabilitation treatment,taking regular exercise and more income could help improve the QOL of stroke survivors.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of monochromatic excimer light (MEL) 308 nm in the treatment of vitiligo. Methods Seventy-seven patients were enrolled in the prospective and open clinical study. Two-hundred and one lesions were subjected to local phototherapy of MEL 308-nm once a week for 3 to 6 months. Results Of these lesions, 86.6% obtained repigmentation at different degrees. The repigmentation was more obvious in lesions on the head, face, neck and trunk than in those on the limbs or extremities. Moreover, patients with generalized and segmental vitiligo got a better improvement than patients with other types of vitiligo. Conclusion MEL 308-nm is effective in the treatment of vitiligo without obvious adverse effects.
