Background:The goals for treatment of achalasia are reducing lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP)and alleviating esophageal obstruction and its related symptoms.Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM)is a promising option for treating achalasia.Aims:To assess the short-term efficacy of POEM for treating achalasia by analyzing the dynamic changes in esophageal manometry.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in 39 achalasia patients receiving POEM in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from Dec.2011 to Oct.2012.Data of water-perfusion esophageal manometry and one-month follow up were collected and analyzed.Results:Thirty-eight patients accomplished the POEM procedure and esophageal manometry three days after treatment.The post-POEM LESP was significantly reduced as compared with the pre-POEMones (P <0.01),while no significant difference was seen in LES relaxation rate before and after POEM.With regard to the motility of esophageal body,absence of peristalsis and increased synchronous contraction were observed both pre-and post-operatively.One month after POEM,LESP was still significantly lower than that before treatment (P <0.05).Thirty-seven patients had their dysphagia alleviated with an efficacy rate of 94.9%.Conclusions:POEM can reduce LESP and alleviate clinical symptoms of achalasia patients but has no effect on esophageal peristalsis during the short-term follow up.Esophageal manometry is useful for evaluating the short-term outcome postoperatively.

An α-amylase inhibitor (α-AI) was isolated from white kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris. L) by ethanol fractional precipitation, ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration column chromatography. It was a homogeneity glycoprotein demonstrated by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration on CL-6B. The glycoprotein contained 88.2% protein and was rich in aspartic acid, glutamic acid, leucine, threonine and serine. The carbohydrate moiety was consisted of Man, Glc, Gal and Xyl in a mole ratio of 2.42∶1.50∶1.52∶1.00. The glycan and the core protein backbone was connected by O-linkage as determined by β-elimination reaction. The continuous oral administration of the α-AI (150 mg·kg-1·d-1 ) for 7 days can lower fasting blood glucose and 300 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 α-AI for 7 days can improve the sugar tolerance on alloxan-dependent diabetic model rats. The result showed the α-AI obtained from white kidney beans had good hypoglycemic effect on alloxan induced diabetic rats and may have high potential pharmaceutical value as a regulative digestive-starch degradation in patients suffering from diabetes.

Purpose To investigate the diagnosis and differentail diagnosis of metastatic small cell carcinoma of bone in needle biopsy, especially for the differentail diagnosis with Ewing sarcoma of bone. Methods Clinicopathological informations of 11 cases of metastat-ic small cell carcinoma and 20 cases of Ewing sarcoma were collected, and markers for differentail diagnosis were detected in two groups by immunohistochemistry of EnVision. Results The positive rates of CD99 and FLI-1 were 27. 3% and 54. 5% in metastatic small cell carcinoma group, while the positive rate of CK was 15. 0% in Ewing sarcoma group. Patient′s age, single lesion, expression of CK, vimentin, CD99, FLI-1, CD56 were significantly different in two groups. Conclusions Metastatic small cell carcinoma and E-wing sarcoma share similar histopathologic features in needle biopsy, no single immunohistochemical marker can specifically distinguish small cell carcinoma from Ewing sarcouma. The correct diagnosis should comprehensive analyze clinicopathologic characters and a se-ries of immunohistochemical markers.

Objective: To explore the relationship between cyberbullying and depression in college students, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention of cyberbullying. Methods: A total of 3 914 college students from 6 universities in Shanxi Province were selected as research objects. The students’ cyberbullying behavior scale and depression self-rating scale were used to investigate the students. Results: The overall reported rate of cyberbullying among college students was 17.4%. Boys who suffered from online verbal bullying and online fraud scored higher than girls. Students whose parents divorced scored higher than those whose parents did not divorce in all dimensions of cyber-bullying. There was a statistically significant difference in the overall scores of students with different degrees of education and time spent online( P <0.05). Depression was reported in 15.6% of participants. The depression scores of female students were higher than that of male students.College students whose parents were divorced had higher depression scores than those whose parents were not divorced.There were statistically significant differences in depression scores among college students with different fathers’ education levels and different time spent online every day( t / F =2.05, 6.64, 3.91 , 19.52, P <0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that online speech bullying, online fraud and identity concealment bullying were positively correlated with depression scores( r s =0.40, 0.36, 0.46, P <0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that three forms of cyberbullying were risk factors for the increase of depression in college students( β =0.89, 0.38, 0.38, P <0.01). Conclusion Cyber-bullying is one of the risk factors for increasing the severity of depression among college students.Strengthening the management of Internet use, promotion college students’ interpersonal conununication and active cooperating between society, school and family are great significance to reduce the occurrence of cyberbullying.

Objective:Regulatory quantitative trait loci (regQTL) theory can help to evaluate the regulation function of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on crucial biological signals from a three-dimensional perspective. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of these regQTL-SNPs on the susceptibility of lung cancer.Methods:Based on the regQTL theory, using the database of identified lung cancer regQTL-SNPs, we screened the SNPs that may function as regQTL in the reported susceptible regions of lung cancer by genome-wide association study(GWAS), and a two-stage case-control study was conducted (screening stage: 2 331 lung cancer cases and 3 077 healthy controls; validation stage: 626 lung cancer cases and 667 healthy controls) to definite the association of related regQTL-SNPs with the susceptibility of lung cancer.Results:A total of 8 regQTL-SNPs were screened in the reported susceptible regions of lung cancer by GWAS. Among which, 3 SNPs were significantly associated with the risk of lung cancer ( P<0.05) in the screening stage. Further validation results indicated that the variant T allele of rs6998591 in ADRA1A was significantly associated with increased risk of lung cancer (additive model: OR=1.33, 95% CI:1.01-1.74, P=0.040). In addition, the variant G allele of rs11202916 in ACTA2 was significantly associated with decreased risk of lung cancer (recessive model: OR=0.71, 95% CI:0.52-0.96, P=0.026). Stratified analysis indicated that the variant T allele of rs6998591 significantly increased lung squamous cell carcinoma risk (additive model: OR=1.53, 95% CI: 1.01-2.32, P=0.043), while the variant G allele of rs11202916 significantly decreased lung adenocarcinoma risk (additive model: OR=0.83, 95% CI: 0.69-0.98, P=0.031). Gene-environment interaction analysis indicated that the risk of developing lung cancer increased by 235% in smoking individuals carrying rs6998591 variant T allele compared with those non-smoking individuals carrying no rs6998591 variant T allele( OR=3.35,95% CI:2.10-5.34, P<0.001). Conclusion:There are two regQTL-SNPs that could significantly affect the susceptibility of lung cancer in the GWAS reported susceptible regions of lung cancer.

Objective: To explore the relationship between childhood maltreatment and suicide ideation of college students,so as to provide basis for physical and mental health of college students. Methods: Students from 6 universities in Shanxi Province(3 854 college students provided eligible questionniare for childhood abuse and 3 882 for suicidal ideation) were selected by multi-stage random cluster sampling from May to July 2018, the Chinese Version of the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire and the Self-rating Idea of Suicide Scale were used in the survey. Results: Of all subjects,42.4% had at least one kind of abuse experience in childhood and 3.9% had suicidal ideation in the past week. By chi square test,the detection rate of suicidal ideation of college students who suffered physical abuse,emotional abuse,sexual abuse,physical neglect,emotional neglect in childhood was higher than that of college students without maltreatment (χ2=13.78，12.97，17.10，56.56，66.58，P<0.01)；Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between each type of maltreatment in childhood and college students’ suicidal ideation(r=0.06，0.06，0.07，0.12，0.13，P<0.01)；Multivariate Logistic regression model found that after controlling other influencing factors,physical neglect and emotional neglect in childhood were independent risk factors for suicide ideation of college students (OR=2.18,2.07,P<0.05). Conclusion Physical neglect and emotional neglect in childhood can increase the risk of college students’ suicidal ideation. Paying enough attention and care to them in early childhood may help to prevent their suicidal ideation in adulthood.

Objective: To explore the relationship between childhood abuse and cyberbullying among college students and to provide theoretical support for early intervention of cyberbullying among college students. Methods: A total of 3 850 sophomores and juniors from 6 universities in Shanxi Province, randomly selected by stratified cluster sampling method, were investigated by using the Questionnaire on Cyberbullying and the Chinese Version of the Child Abuse Questionnaire. Results: Male students reported higher rates of sexual abuse, emotional neglect and physical neglect than female students(χ2=5.22, 4.39, 7.53 P<0.05). The child abuse report rate of college students whose parents divorced was higher than that of those whose parents were not divorced(χ2=86.80, 134.06, 130.18, 175.64, 118.46，P<0.05). In addition to physical neglect, childhood abuse rate of only children was higher than that of non-only children, with statistically significant differences(χ2=9.44, 12.44, 21.18, 21.26, all P<0.05). The scores of all factors and total scores of cyberbullying implemented by male students were higher than those by female students(t=9.35, 5.59, 5.83, 7.57，P<0.05); the scores of all factors and total scores of cyberbullying implemented by only-child students were higher than those by non-only-child students(t=2.79, 3.74, 4.78, 4.40，P<0.05); the scores of all factors and total scores of cyberbullying implemented by students whose parents were divorced were higher than those by students whose parents were not divorced, with statistically significant differences(t=6.99,6.78, 8.04，11.33, P<0.05). Multiple linear regression model showed that there was a positive correlation between the childhood abuse of college students and the implementation of cyberbullying, and regression coefficient differences of all factors were statistically significant(β=0.10, 0.11, 0.05, 10.08,0.06, P<0.05). Conclusion Childhood abuse experiences increase the risk of college students practicing cyberbullying.

Objective:To construct the continuous nursing need index system based on discharge readiness for patients with spinal cord injury so as to guide the clinical nursing practice.Methods:From January 2017 to July 2018, this study selected 115 spinal cord injury inpatients of Spine Surgery Department at a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Qingdao as subjects by convenience sampling. The Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) was used to investigate those patients. According to the investigation results, this study primarily built the continuous nursing need index system for spinal cord injury patients. Delphi method was used to select 25 experts for two rounds of consultation so as to establish the final the continuous nursing need index system for spinal cord injury patients.Results:Among 115 spinal cord injury patients, the total score and item average score of RHDS were (60.39±22.12) points and (5.27±2.75) points respectively. Among two rounds of consultation, the authoritative coefficients of experts were 0.78 and 0.81 respectively, and the coordination coefficients were 0.343 and 0.423. In the second round of consultation, the variation coefficients ranged from 0.09 to 0.18. The final the continuous nursing need index system for spinal cord injury patients included 5 first-level indexes and 33 second-level indexes.Conclusions:The continuous nursing need index system for spinal cord injury patients has a high level of authoritative coefficients and is scientific practical which can provide a basis for discharge health instruction in spinal cord injury patients and promote the safe transition in hospital-community-family as well as comprehensive rehabilitation.
