Objective To learn the publications and influencing factors of scientific papers from nursing staff in China.Methods 750 authors were chosen in a stratified random sampling for survey,and the questionnaires included a survey form on nursing research papers publications and one research ability self-rating scalce Results The nursing staff surveyed published 1-70 papers per person,averaging 8.83papers per person; on average 0.45 papers were published per person per year.Main factors for research outputs range from high to low as follows:age,academic titles,research ability,education background and research training,with the Beta values of 0.255,0.234,0.142,0.093,and 0.087 respectively.Conclusion Nursing administrators need to develop respective objectives for nursing staff of different age,academic titles,education background and research ability,and set up an effective incentive mechanism to ignite the enthusiasm of scientific research.

ObjectiveTo study the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) in the ORF26 gene of HHV-8 in Kaposi's sarcoma(KS),and to assess their correlations with the clinical phenotype and mucosal invasion of KS.MethodsHHV-8 DNA was extracted with phenol-chloroform-isoamyl alcohol from paraffin-embedded tissue specimens obtained from 32 cases of KS(including 26 classic and 6 AIDS-related KS).The ORF26 gene of HHV-8 was amplified by nested-PCR followed by bidirectional sequencing.The software DNAStar and program Clustal W were used to assess the SNPs in the ORF26 gene.Statistical analysis was carried out by using the Fisher's exact probability test.ResultsHHV-8 DNA was detected in 30 of the 32 tissue specimens,and in all of the 6 AIDS-related specimens.The predominant SNPs were 981 T/C(n =12),1086 C/T(n =12) and 1139 A/C(n =12) in the ORF26 gene of the 30 strains of HHV-8.No significant difference was observed in the distribution of SNPs in ORF26 between different phenotypes of KS or between KS with and without mucosal invasion.ConclusionThe ORF26 SNPs of HHV-8 seem unrelated to the clinical phenotypes or mucosal invasion of KS.

Objective:To investigate the effect of arterial baroreflex(ABR)on survival rate of rats with cecal ligation and puncture(CLP)-induced sepsis.Methods:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 2 groups:sham-operated rats(n=22)and sinoaortic denervated(SAD)rats(n=22).Four weeks after SAD rats were subjected to CLP-induced sepsis,the blood pressure and heart period(HP)were monitored for 12 hours in conscious state and the survival of rats was observed.Results:Both the diastolic and systolic blood pressue gradually decreased after CLP;the HP shortened first and then drastically prolonged until the death of rats.At 12 h after CLP the survival rate of SAD rats was lower than that of the sham-operated rats(59% vs 86%).Significant differences were found between the Kaplan-Meier survival curves of the rats in 2 groups(P

Objective To analyse the research motives and its influencing factors of nursing staff.Methods 1000 authors who wrote for “Nursing Research” were chosen with a random code sampling method and were surveyed with a questionnaire,which inquired about their research motivation and self-rated research ability scale.Results Nursing research motives include to summarise clinical experience66.2％ (524/793),to get promotion 55.4％ (420/793),to contribute to nursing profession 37.2％ (295/793),to report research achievements 35.6％ (282/793),and to meet the requirements of the institution17.5％ (139/793).Research motives were statistically different in terms of age,work expirence,educational background,professional title,attitude,research training,research ability,and work institution (P =0.013,0.037,0.048,0.002,0.024,0.008,0.005,0.009,0.004,P＜0.05).Conclusions To stimulate the enthusiasm for research in nursing staff,administrators need to pay great attention to higher education for nurses,enhance their research training,provide research platform,and to improve the incentive system.

Objective: To quantify the effect of motor-developmental Tuina therapy on 61children with cerebral palsy. Methods: All the children received the motor-developmental Tuina therapy for 20 min each time, 3 to 6 times per week. The gross motor functions of the children were evaluated by GMFM 66. The baseline period evaluations in 15 children and follow-up period evaluations in 26 children were performed. Results: GMFM 66 score significantly increased at the end of treatment period (P<0.001). The GMFM 66 score changes per month in treatment period was significantly greater than those of both baseline period and follow-up period (P<0.001). Conclusion: The effect of motor-developmental Tuina therapy was notable on children with cerebral palsy. Continuous progress of the gross motor functions in these children may be obtained by continuous therapy.

Objective To detect the expression of BRAF V600E mutant protein in cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM),and to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of immunohistochemistry (IHC) in detecting BRAF V600E mutation.Methods IHC with an anti-BRAF V600E monoclonal antibody was performed to detect the expression of BRAF V600E mutant protein in paraffin-embedded tissue sections from 103 patients with CMM and 40 patients with nevus.Statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS software version 17.0,and the expression rate of BRAF V600E mutant protein was compared by chi-square test.Results The expression rate of BRAF V600E mutant protein in the CMM patients was 20.4％ (21/103),significantly higher than that in the nevus patients (5.0％ (2/40),x2 =5.06,P ＜ 0.05).Significant differences were observed in the expression rate of BRAF V600E mutant protein between CMM patients of different age groups (29.8％ (14/47) in patients aged ＜ 60 years vs.12.5％ (7/56) in those aged ≥ 60 years,P ＜ 0.05) and nationality (30.2％ (13/43) for Uygur nationality vs.13.3％ (8/60) for Han nationality,P ＜ 0.05),as well as among CMM lesions from different anatomical sites (13.6％ (6/42) in acral sites vs.11.8％ (4/29) in mucous membrane vs.45.8％ (11/32) in non-acral sites,P ＜ 0.05) and of different Clark levels (8.6％ (4/42) for grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ vs.12.4％ (17/61) for grade Ⅳ-Ⅴ,P＜ 0.05),but not between male and female CMM patients or between CMM patients with lymph node metastasis and those without (both P ＞ 0.05).IHC with the anti-BRAF V600E antibody showed a sensitivity of 100％ (15/15) and a specificity of 98.5％ (65/66) in detecting BRAF V600E mutation.Conclusions The expression of BRAF V600E mutant protein is up-regulated in CMM lesions,and CMM patients of Uygur nationality seems to have a higher expression rate than those of Han nationality.IHC appears to be an accurate and rapid method to detect V600E BRAF mutation.

Objective To investigate the effect of bortezomib with arsenic trioxide different concentration on the cell cycle and apoptosis of Raji cells. Methods Flow cytometry analysis showed that the relative number of cells in different phases and the percentages of cells calculated in G1 and S phase of the cell cycle and apoptosis were assessed after treatment with As2O3 and BOR or in combination with BOR in different concentration at indicated time (24 h, 48 h, 72 h). Results Flow cytometric analysis showed that the cell cycle was arrested at G1 phase, the number of cells G1 period increased significantly, and S phase decreased on Raji cells after As2O3 treatment. The relationship between the cellular DNA contents and the concentration of As2O3 showed a dose-and time-dependent manner (P ＜0.0001). But it was found that BOR had no effect on Raji cell cycle, but, in two drugs combination, cell apoptosis rate significantly increased from 16.98 % to 45.84 %. Conclusion The results show that As2O3 exerted variable and definite effects on lymphoma Raji cells, which indicated that As2O3 might induce apoptosis and arrest cell cycle. The combination of two drugs had a effective and synergistic effect on apoptosis.

Objective Invasive candidiasis is associated with a significant mortality clinically.The purpose of this study was to observe the T cells immune response to fructose bisphosphate aldolase (Fba), an immunodominant antigen of Candida albicans, and determine whether the antigen has the possibility of priming cellular immune protection in invasive candiasis.Methods Using ELISPOT assay, we determined the frequencies of positive spot-forming cells (SFCs) of Fba antigen-specific T cells secreting IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-17A in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 26 healthy individuals.Results After Fba stimulation, the frequencies of positive SFCs of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-17A in the 26 healthy subjects were 23 (9.75, 42.50), 0 (0, 0.25) and 1.5 (0.75, 8.25), respectively, with statistically significant differences among the three (P<0.01).The response rates of IFN-γ (100% [26/26]) and IL-17A (76.92% [20/26]) were significantly higher than that of IL-4 (15.38% [4/26]) (P<0.01).Fba-induced strong response (SCFs ≥20) for IFN-γ was observed in 57.69% (15/26) of the healthy individuals, that for IL-17A in only 1, while that for IL-4 in none.Responses of both Th1 and Th17 cells to Fba were found in 65.38% (17/26) of the subjects, that of Th1 cells in 19.23% (5/26), but that of Th2 cells in none.Conclusion Fba of Candida albicans can induce immunodominant responses of Th1 and Th17 cells and is a potential vaccine against invasive candiasis.

Objective Rapid elevation of the IgG antibody against Candida Enolase ( Eno ) has been observed in patients with invasive candidosis in an early stage .The present study was to confirm the association of Candida colonization with humoral im-mune anamnestic response of the dominant antigen . Methods Twenty-four mice were randomized into group 1 treated by oral Candi-da colonization plus intraperitoneal infection ( immunocompetent , n=8) , 2 treated with immunosuppressant in addition to the treatment of group 1 ( immunocompromised , n=8) , 3 treated by oral Candida colonization only ( immunocompetent , n=4) and 4 treated by in-traperitoneal injection only( immunocompetent, n=4).The number of Eno-specific memory B-cells in the spleen and the levels of IgG , IgM and IgA antibodies were determined in the peripheral blood of the immunocompetent and immunocompromised invasive candidiasis mice . Results At 7 days after invasive infection , there were significantly more Eno-specific memory B-cells in the mice of groups1 ( 47.25 ± 13.81) and 2 (43.14±15.95) than in groups 3 (8.00±3.74) and 4(8.50±2.38) (P<0.01), with no statistically significant differences between either groups 1 and 2 or groups 3 and 4 (P >0.05).Eno-IgG antibodies were detected in the serum of the mice of the first two groups in the early stage of invasive infection and positively corre -lated with antigen-specific memory B-cells (r=0.737,P <00.1 ). Conclusion Rapid elevation of the Eno-IgG antibody level in the early stage of invasive infection after Candida colonization may be attributed to the rapid proliferation of humoral immune memory cells.
