Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of melatonin (MT) on human pancreatic cancer in Balb/c nude mice subcutaneous xenograft model. Methods Pancreatic cancer model was established high dose MT(20 mg· kg -1 · d-1 ) , gemcitabine( GEM,50 mg· kg -1 · d-1 ) and high dose MT combination with GEM. Tumor size was measured regularly. The tumor growth curve was drawn. The activity of mice spleen natural killer cell was determined by MTT. Results Compared with the controls [ ( 1. 476 ± 0.075) cm3 ], tumor volumes in low dose MT group[ (0.998 ±0.112)cm3], high dose MT group[ (0.756 ±0.128) cm3], GEM group [ (0. 746 ± 0. 115 ) cm3 ], combination group [ (0. 305 ± 0. 111 ) cm3 ] were significantly decreased ( P <0.01), and the tumor size in high dose MT group was smaller than that in low dose MT group, while the tumor size in combination group was the smallest. The activity of mice spleen natural killer cell was ( 18.07 ± 1.23) %in control group, and they were (44.27 ±3.19)% ,(45.16 ±3.20)% and (30.29 ±2.91)% in low dose MT group, high dose MT group, combination group, which were significantly higher than those in the control group;the activity of natural killer cell in GEM group was ( 14.24 ± 2.70) %, which was significantly lower than that in the control group (P <0.05), but the activity of natural killer cell in combination group was significantly higher than that in the GEM group (P < 0.01 ). Conclusions MT could improve the immune function of mice,inhibit the growth of tumor, and MT combination with GEM may have more potent antitumor effect.

MicroRNA (miRNA),which is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors,may act as oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes by regulating target genes-related signal transduction pathways,such as epidermal growth factor receptor pathway,phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B pathway and Ras signal transduction pathway.It is believed that miRNAs have broad application prospects in the treatment of tumors.

Objective To understand the training status and learning requirement of nursing personnel for the aged from the perspective of nursing targets and their relatives in the city of Nanjing.Methods The questionnaire involved six categories,80 questionnaires were sent out,57 of them were recollected.The effective recovery rate was 71.3％(57/80).All the data were input into Excel to do statistical analysis.Results The nursing personnel did not fully grasp the skills of transfusion nursing and muscle injection [45.6％(26/57) and 33.3％(19/57)] in the basic theory of basic care,knowledge and skills from the perspective of nursing targets and their relatives.The Chinese medicine nursing skills such as scrapping [needing very much 40.4％ (23/57)] and burying seeds [needing very much 40.4％ (23/57)] in the ear acupuncture point were also needed to be enhanced.A total of 75.4％ (43/57) of respondents chose online examination as the way of nursing personnel's evaluation.Conclusions Nursing personnel are in great need of on-job professional training.

Objective To discuss the confirmed value of HCV Different Region ELISA KIT (ANTI-HCV-C, ANTI-HCV-NS3, ANTI-HCV-NS4, ANTI-HCV-NS5) to anti-HCV CO sample.Methods To inspect the general antibody of anti-HCV with ELISA, which is commonly used in clinic.The serum was separated from the suspicious samples, whose results were equal to S/CO or in the state of grey district ( CO?10%), and stored in the refrigerator in -29℃ low temperature and concenratedly inspected by the HCV Different Region ELISA KIT on the Triturus,the enayme immuno-reactions automatic analyzer. We totally collected 44 suspicious samples,among which there were 24 anti-HCV positive,20 anti-HCV CO?10% negative. Meanwhile we collected 30 samples whose S/CO of general antiboby was more than 5.0 and 20 ones which were healthy and could be compared with.Results In the 44 suspicious cases, whose S/CO was in the state of grey disrtict (CO?10%), the HCV Different Region Kit confirmed positive was 22.7% (10/44),suspicious 6.8% (3/44), negative 70.5 % (31/44).The false positive rate of positive anti-HCV CO?10% was 54.2%(13/24) and the false negative rate of negative anti-HCV CO?10% was 5.0%(1/20). In the 30 cases,whose S/CO of general antibody was more than 5.0,the HCV Different Region Kit confirmed positive was 80.0%(24/30),suspicious 13.3%(4/30), negative 67%(2/30). In 20 cases,which were from healthy people, the HCV Different Region Kit confirmed totally negative.Conclusion Using HCV Different Region Kit is a better evidence laboratory,especially for the uncertain samples,that is,it is very important for the "grey district"(CO?10%) samples to be further confirmed.It can reduce the false positive and false negative result which may emerge when anti HCV EIA inspects the dangerous groups and improve the accuracy of clinical HCV diagnosis.To blood station, it has certain practical value for the blood not only can be safely used, but also avoided wasting. The operation is simple and convenient, easily be spread and applied.

ObjecfiveTo compare the sensitivity of diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)with dynamic contrast enhanced(DeE)MRI for the detection of small breast caJlcers and to evaluate the clinical value of DWI.MethodsForty-eight patients with benign(n=25)and malignant(n=45)small breast lesions(≤2 cm)proved by pathology underwent DWI and DCE MRI.The DCE MRI was performed using FLASH sequence and the time-signal intensity chive was drawn.The DWl was performed using GRAPPAEPI sequence with different b values(800,1000 s/mm2) and the ADC values of lesions were measured.The sensitivity and specificity of DWI for the detection of small breast cancers were compared with DCE MRI. ResultsForty of 45 small breast cancers and 19 of 25 small benign breast lesions were corrlectly diagnosed using DCE MRI.The sensitivity and positive predictive value of TIC were 88.9%(40/45)and 87.0%(40/46).With b values of 800 s/mm2 and 1000 s/mm2,the avemge ADC values of small breast cancers were(1.153±0.192)× 10-3 and(1.079±0.186)× 10-3 mm2/s,while those of benign ones were (1.473±0.252)×10-3 and(1.419±0.255)×10-3 mm2/s,respeetively. There was no significant difference for the ADC values with different b values in the same group(P＞0.05),while there was a signiticant difference between the malignant and the benign lesions(P＜0.05)Thirty-nine of 45 small breast cancers and 19 of 25 small benign breast lesions were correctly diagnosed using DWI with b value of 1000see/mm2.Both the sensitivity and positive predictive value of diagnosis were 86.7%(39/45).The abilities of DWI and DCE MRI for the diagnosis of small breast cancers werle the same. The sensitivity(93.3%)and positive predictive value(91.3%)were improved with the combination of DCE MRI and DWI. Conclusion DWI has a high sensitivity for the detection of small breast cancers,the ADC value can provide valuable information in the differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of domestic Oseltamivir granules in the treatment of influenza A in children.Methods The research subjects were the hospitalized patients with influenza A coming from the Department of Infectious Disease in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center.from January and March,2014 They were divided into 2 groups randomly.Patients in the treatment group received domestic Oseltamivir granules,while the patients in the control group received foreign Oseltamivir.Chi square test was performed to compare baseline characteristics and the difference in side effects.Paired t test was used to compare baseline characteristics and the difference in side effects.Results There were 44 cases in the study group,27 cases were male(61.36％),17 cases were female (38.64％),and the average age was (2.40 ± 1.97) years old.There were 40 cases in the control group,28 cases were male (70.00％),12 cases were female (30.00％),and the average age was (2.99-± 3.19) years old.The maximum age was 6 years old.The age and gender were not significant (P ＞ 0.05) between 2 groups.The fever remission time was (14.67-± 9.37) h and (11.80-± 9.98) h in the treatment group and the control group,and there was no significant difference between 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05);the flu symptoms completely remission time was (62.50 ± 25.03) h and (65.40 ± 36.74) h in the treatment group and the control group,and there was no significant difference between 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05);the adverse reaction was not observed in the treatment group,but 1 case in the control group had cough,and without special treatment cough alleviated gradually;the close contacts in 2 groups did not develop influenza A.Conclusions The domestic Oseltamivir granules are as effective and safe as the foreign Oseltamivir.And the domestic Oseltamivir granules are the granular type,and therefore more suitable for children

Objective : To learn the characteristics of second-line drug resistance and related gene mutations of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( MDR-TB ) Beijing genotype strains. Methods: The MDR-TB isolates in Hwa Mei Hospital from 2017 to 2019 were enrolled and detected using RD105 deletion-targeted multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The proportion method for drug susceptibility test was used to detect the drug-resistant profiles against kanamycin, amikacin, capreomycin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin. The gene sequencing of rrs, tlyA, eis, gidB, gyrA and gyrB was conducted by PCR compared with H37RV strain. The differences in the rates of drug resistance and mutation between Beijing and non-Beijing genotype strains were examined to understand the characteristics of Beijing genotype strains. Results: There were 106 Beijing genotype and 27 non-Beijing genotype strains in 133 MDR-TB isolates. The drug resistance rates of kanamycin, amikacin, capreomycin, ofloxacin and levofloxacin in Beijing genotype strains were 9.43%, 7.55%, 3.77%, 32.08% and 32.08%, respectively. The rates of quasi-extensive and extensive drug resistance in Beijing genotype strains were 30.19% and 7.55%. The gene mutation rates of rrs, tlyA, eis, gidB, gyrA and gyrB in Beijing genotype strains were 7.55%, 7.55%, 1.89%, 2.83%, 36.79% and 2.83%, respectively. There were no significantly differences between Beijing and Non-Beijing genotype strains in the factors above ( P>0.05 ). The gene rrs, tlyA, eis, gidB, gyrA and gyrB had 2, 1, 2, 2, 5 and 3 mutation types, respectively, with single base substitution as the main type. Conclusion Beijing genotype strains are dominant in MDR-TB, with high resistance to fluoroquinolones and mainly gyrA gene mutation.
