Objective To explore pressure ulcer risk factors among hospitalized elderly patients.Methods 271 patients were selected from departments of high pressure ulcer incidence of a srade three A hospital.Multiple factors were assessed prospectively and the occurrence of pressure ulcer monitored.Logistic regression was applied to analyze the correlation between the factors and the occurrence of pressure ulcer.Results Correlated factors included medical and nursing interventions,surgery,impaired activity and impaired tissue tolerance.Similar results were found for two kinds of dependent variables,namely suge I and stage Ⅱ pressure ulcers.Conclusions Medical and nursing interventions,surgery,impaired activity and impaired tissue tolerance are considered risk factors of pressure ulcers for hospitalized elderly patients.Relative prevention and interventions should be integrated in clinical nursing care.

Objective To compare and evaluate the reliability and validity of the application of three pressure ulcer risk assessment scales in hospitalized elderly patients by Norton,Braden and Waterlow pressure ulcer risk assessment scales. Methods We selected 271 elderly patiehts from a certain thirdclass and first-grade hospital and assessed their pressure ulcer risks by 3 assessment scales.The reliability and validity of these Scales were evaluated and compared by the following methods such as Cronbaeh's α coefficient,content validity index,factor analysis and ROC curve. Results The Cronbach's α coefficient of these 3 scales were 0.71,0.79 and 0.32 respectively.The content validity indices of them were 0.85,0.91and 0.87.The cumulative variance explained were 71.73%,70.34%and 65.76%respectively.The sensitivity and specificity upon cut-off points were(0.75,0.62),(0.74,0.59)and(0.86,0.59).Conclusion The Waterlow scale showed insufficient internal consistency but good predictive ability.The Braden scale showed moderate reliability and validity but with a lower predictive ability compared with the Norton and Waterlow scales.

Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of co-administration of aspirin and low-dose clopidogrel in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after 1 year.Methods From March 2004 to September 2010,a total of 3366 patients with successful drug-eluting stents implantation after 1 year were divided into group A (aspirin combined with low-dose clopidogrel,n=1682) and group B (aspirin alone,n=1684).The average follow-up period was (29.5±16.3) months (19 months-76 months).The major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events and clinical complications were evaluated.Results Rates of cardiovascular death were 0.1 ％(2 cases) in combination group and 0.9％ (15 cases) in aspirin group,the risk ratio (HR) was 0.154 [(95％ CI:0.035 0.675),P＜0.05].Myocardial infarction occurred in 9 patients (0.5％) in group A and 27 patients (1.6％) in group B,the risk ratio (HR) was 0.036 [(95％ CI:0.153-0.741),P＜0.01].Rates of stroke were 0.4％ (7 cases) in group A and 1.6％ (27 cases) in group B,the risk ratio (HR) was 0.301 [(95％ CI:0.131 0.693),P ＜ 0.01].Recurrent ischemia with rehospitalization occurred in 152 patients (9.0％) in group A and 274 patients (16.3％) in group B,the risk ratio (HR) was0.601 [(95％ CI:0.491-0.735),P＜0.01].The cumulative survival rate in patients died of cardiac causes was significantly better in group A than in group B (P＜0.01).The cumulative incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events was significantly lower in group A than in group B (P＜0.01).There were no significant differences in total number of deaths,target vessel revascularization,stent thrombosis,incidences of severe bleeding,mild bleeding,leukopenia and thrombocytopenia between the two groups (all P＞0.05).Conclusions In patients with PCI after 1 year,the co-administration of aspirin and low-dose clopidogrel reduces the risks of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events,and does not increase the risks of bleeding and cytopenia.

Objective To investigate the effect of portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting on liver regeneration in rats .Methods Seventy-five healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were selected and randomly assigned into sham operation group ( S) , portal vein ligation group ( PVL) and portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting group ( ALPPS) .On 1 d, 3 d, 7 d, 10 d, 14 d after operation , the hepatic regeneration rate ( HRR) of right median lobe was calculated , the serum alanine aminotransferase ( ALT) , aspartate aminotransferase (AST), IL-6, HGF, VEGF were detected.mRNA of IL-6, HGF, TNF-α, TGF-βwas assayed by real-time PCR, and the hepatic proliferating cell nuclear antigen ( PCNA) labeling index was evaluated by immunohistochemistry .Results Comparing with PVL group , the HRR of the right median lobe obviously increased on day 3, 7, 10 and 14 in ALPPS group (P<0.05), and ALT and AST level were increased on 1 d (P<0.05).On day 1 and 3, the content of serum IL-6, HGF and VEGF were all in-creased in ALPPS group [(70.7 ±14.6) pg/ml vs.(134.2 ±31.4) pg/ml; (0.70 ±0.04) ng/ml vs. (0.74 ±0.02) ng/ml;(82.1 ±12.6) pg/ml vs.(103.5 ±14.7) pg/ml], respectively (P<0.05).The mRNA expression of IL-6, HGF, TNF-α, TGF-βand the PCNA labeling index were also increased in ALPPS group in comparison with those in PVL group on day 1 and 3 (P<0.05).All the indexes in the two groups were all higher than those in the group S ( P<0 .05 ) .Conclusions Portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting could significantly enhance liver regeneration .The possible mechanisms were related to the inflammation reaction and stress response caused by in situ splitting and up-regulation of cytokines in the regenerating lobe after portal vein ligation combined with in situ splitting , especially IL-6, HGF and TNF-α.

Objective To analyze the alterations of serum protein in ESCC,compare alterations of serum protein with and without LM. Methods Serum samples were collected from 64 ESCC patients before operation and 60 cases with gender and age-matched healthy controls,special serum protein or peptide spectra was determined by SELDI-TOF-MS measurement after treating the sample onto weak cation exchange (WCX2) protein chip for each case. The serum protein profiles were compared by Biomarker Wizard Software between the ESCC patients and healthy controls, and among ESCC patients stratified according to gender, age, location of tumor, size of tumor, infiltration and with or without LM. Results (1)120 protein peaks were detected at the molecular range of 0 to 50000 in comparing of ESCC patients and healthy controls. 31 significantly different peaks were found between ESCC patients and healthy controls (P <0.05), 10 peaks were selected(P<0.01). (2) One significantly different protein peak (m/z 4174) was detected between T1 and T3, T4 (P<0.05). (3) There were three significantly different protein peaks (m/z 3970,4174 and 4277) between with LM and without LM (P<0.05).The peak (m/z 4174) was shared by two groups above. (4) No significant different protein was found when patients stratified according to gender, age, location of tumor and size of tumor. Conclusion Significant difference exists in serum proteins between ESCC patients and healthy controls. There are statistical difference exists in serum proteins between T1 and T3, T4, with LM and without LM. This difference is less than between ESCC patients and healthy controls. Some commonness is existed in serum protein fingerprint for patients with serious infiltration and with LM.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection ( ESD ) for early gastric cancer ( EGC) in a single center in China. Methods:We performed a retrospective ana-lysis of the patients with single EGC lesion who received ESD in Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 2011 to December 2013. Their clinicopathologic data, resectability, curability, complications and follow-up data were assessed. Results:A total of 116 patients were enrolled in the study. The patients in-cluded 88 men and 28 women, with a median age of 63 years ( range:25-80 years) . The post-operative histology of the lesions included 28 (24. 1%) high grade intraepithelial neoplasia, 35 (30. 2%) well differentiated adenocarcinoma, 35 (30. 2%) moderated differentiated adenocarcinoma and 18 (15. 5%) poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Of all the lesions, 75. 0% (87/116) were confined into mucosa, 15. 5% (18/116) invaded SM1 ( <500 μm from the muscularis mucosae) and 9. 5% (11/116) inva-ded SM2 (≥500 μm from the muscularis mucosae). The mean tumor size was (1. 49 ± 0. 96) cm, and the rate of ulceration was 14. 7% (17/116). The en bloc resection rates were 96. 7% (111/116), com-plete resection rates were 93. 1% (108/116) and curative resection rates were 77. 6% (90/116). Ac-cording to the curability, 62 (53. 4%) cases were classified into the standard curative resection ( sCR) group, 28 (24. 2%) into the expanded curative resection ( eCR) group and 26 (22. 4%) into thenon-curative resection ( nCR) group. The mean tumor size of the sCR group was smaller than that of the eCR and nCR group (t= -4. 121, P<0. 001 and t= -3. 420, P=0. 001). In the nCR group, the portion of type 0-Ⅲlesion and ulceration were significantly higher (χ2 =10 . 287 , P=0 . 006 andχ2 =17 . 737 , P<0. 001). In multivariate analysis, EGC with ulceration and submucosal invasion were the risk factors for non-curative resection ( OR=6 . 634 , P=0 . 006 and OR=12 . 735 , P<0 . 001 ) . The ESD-related complications included 4 ( 3. 4%) post-operative bleeding, 3 ( 2. 6%) intra-operative perforation, 2 (1. 7%) cardiac stenosis and 1 (0. 9%) heart failure. In the study, 106 of the 116 patients received periodic follow-up, during a median follow-up of 22 months(12 -47 months), Local tumor recurrence developed in 1 patient of the eCR group 8 months post the ESD. Conclusion:ESD is a safe and feasible option for EGC in China, ulceration and submucosal invasion are associated with non-curative resection, and post-operative bleeding and intra-operative perforation should be concerned as the main complica-tions.
