Objective To study the insulin‐like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)‐2 and IGFBP‐6 expression and clini‐cal significance in colorectal adenomas .Methods A collection of Chengde Medical College Hospital from July 2012 to March 2013 after surgical treatment of colorectal cancer confirmed by pathology (colorectal cancer ,CRC) tissue samples of 50 patients ,colorec‐tal adenomas (colorectal adenoma ,CRA) 50 cases ,20 cases of colorectal normal mucosa .Immunohistochemistry and RT‐PCR were used to detect the expression of IGFBP‐2 and IGFBP‐6 protein and mRNA ,combined with clinical and pathological data were statis‐tically analyzed .Results IGFBP‐2 protein positive expression and the amount of mRNA expression in the CRA group compared with normal colorectal mucosa had a rising trend;While compared with CRC group had a tendency to reduce ,and the differences are obvious statistical significance (P<0 .05) ,and IGFBP‐6 protein positive expression in the CRA group compared with normal color‐ectal mucosa had a lower trend;While compared with CRC group amount IGFBP‐6 mRNA expression in the CRA group compared with normal colorectal mucosa had a rising trend;While compared with CRC group had a tendency to reduce ,and the differences were obvious statistical significance (P<0 .05) .In the CRA group ,IGFBP‐2 ,IGFBP‐6 positive expression and the patient′s age , sex ,tumor and the number of parts were no significant statistical difference (P>0 .05) ,but with the degree of hyperplasia had sig‐nificant statistical difference(P<0 .05);In the CRA group ,IGFBP‐2 and IGFBP‐6 expression were negatively related to each other , and the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .01) .Conclusion Colorectal adenomas in normal colorectal mucosa of colorec‐tal cancer to the middle part of the transformation process ,and in its occurrence and development process ,insulin‐like growth factor family (IGFs) and IGFS‐R axis plays an important and irreplaceable role ,so IGFBP‐2 ,IGFBP‐6 may be used as diagnostic colorectal adenomas and early predictors of prognosis ,clinical studies on colorectal adenomas is important .

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and safety of rosuvastatin on blood lipid and thyroid nodules in elderly pa-tients with dyslipidemia. METHODS:70 elderly patients with dyslipidemia were selected and randomly divided into control group (33 cases) and treatment group (37 cases). Control group was treated with routine treatment as abstain from tobacco and drink, low fat diet,Aspirin enteric-coated tablets 100 mg at bed time;treatment group was additionally treated with Rosuvastatin calcium tablet 10 mg at bed time,on the basis of control group. Both groups received the treatment for consecutive 12 weeks. BMI,blood lipid and the size of thyroid nodules were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment,and the occurrence of ADR was also observed. RESULTS:There was no significant difference in BMI between 2 groups before and after treatment (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in blood lipid level and the size of thyroid nodules between 2 groups before and after treatment (P>0.05). The blood lipid level and the size of thyroid nodule of 2 groups were improved significantly after treatment,and the treatment group was significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). 2 pationts of creatment suf-fered from the increase of ALT but recovered withont angtreatment. CONCLUSIONS:Rosuvastatin can significantly improve blood lipid and decrease thyroid nodules in elderly patients with dyslipidemia with good safety.

Purpose To investigate the expression of IGF-Ⅱand IGFBP-6 in co1orecta1 cancer,and to exp1ore the c1inica1 significance in co1orecta1 cancer. Methods IGF-Ⅱand IGFBP-6 were detected by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR in 50 cases of co1orecta1 cancer(experimenta1 group)and 50 cases of the adjacent mucosa(contro1 group). Results (1)In the experimenta1 group,the ex-pression 1eve1 of IGF-Ⅱprotein and mRNA was significant1y higher than the contro1 group. The expression 1eve1s of IGF-Ⅱprotein and mRNA in co1orecta1 cancer were significant1y 1ower than the contro1 group.(2)The expression 1eve1s of IGF-Ⅱand IGFBP-6 were sig-nificant1y different between different tumor infi1tration depth,1ymph node metastasis,invasion depth and Duke’s stages( P<0. 05), but no difference between genders,age and the degree of tumor differentiation( P>0. 05). Conclusions There is a obvious corre1a-tion between of IGF-Ⅱ and IGFBP-6 in c1inica1 patho1ogica1 parameters in co1orecta1 cancer. Combined detection of the two markers may be the bio1ogica1 indicators of occurrence and prognosis of co1orecta1 cancer,and provide a new scheme for diagnosis and treatment of co1orecta1 cancer.

Objective: To investigate the expression level of lactamase β (LACTB) in gastric cancer and its influence on the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Methods: The varied expression of LACTB in 90 pairs of gastric cancer tissue and peritumor tissue was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. The prognostic role of LACTB mRNA in gastric cancer was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier Plotter database. The factors affecting the overall survival of gastric cancer patients were analyzed with Cox survival model. The prognostic nomogram model was established to predict overall survival of gastric cancer patients. The proteins which interacted with LACTB were analyzed by the STRING database, and they were tagged by the notable associated functional cluster of GO (gene ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes) pathway. Results: The expression of LACTB in gastric cancer tissue was obviously lower than that in peritumor tissue (P=0.000). The low expression of LACTB mRNA may suggest that the prognosis of gastric cancer patient is poor, and the C-index of nomogram for predicting prognosis of gastric cancer patients was 0.641. A set of LACTB and 38 proteins which interacted with LACTB participated in five kinds of signaling pathway. Results for the classification of GO (gene ontology) annotation demonstrated that the proteins were involved in one kind of cellular component, nine kinds of molecular function and two kinds of biological process. Conclusion: The low expression of LACTB may be a poor-prognostic factor in gastric cancer.

Objective:To explore the effect of probiotics on reducing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in sepsis patients.Methods:A total of 94 cases were randomly (random number) divided into the probiotic group ( n = 46) and the control group ( n = 48). All of the patients were given enteral nutrition therapy by nasogastric tube within 24-72 h after admission. And patients in the probiotic group were given live combined bifidobacterium, lactobacillus and enterococcus powder besides the regular therapy. The incidence of VAP, bacteremia, mortality, mechanical ventilation time and length of ICU stay were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with the control group, the incidences of VAP and bacteremia in the probiotics group were significantly lower (χ 2=4.763, P=0.029; χ 2=4.438, P=0.035). There were no significant differences in 28-day mortality and the length of hospital stay between the two groups (χ 2=2.02, P=0.167; t=1.29, P=0.208). Mechanical ventilation time in the probiotics group was significantly shorter than that in the control group ( t=2.16, P=0.038). The Log-Rank test showed that the time of VAP-free in the probiotics group was significantly longer than that in the control group ( P < 0.05). After adjusting for APACHEⅡ score and age, COX proportional risk model analysis showed that the RR values of the probiotics group and the control group for 28-day VAP were 0.18 (95% CI: 0.12-0.74, P=0.025) and 0.21 (95% CI: 0.19-0.95, P=0.042), respectively. Conclusions:Probiotics treatment can reduce the incidence of VAP in sepsis patients.

Objective To observe the incidence of phlebitis in patients with PICC through peripheral vein and its nursing effect, in order to aLleviate the patients' suffering. Methods The 60 volunteers were divided into three groups randomly, who were received PICC through basilie vein, vena mediana and cephalic vein, the incidence of of phlebitis and therapeutic effieaey were analyzed. Results 2 patients appeared phlebitis in 20 cases received PICC through basilic vein, 3 patients in 20 eases through eubital vein, and all cured;11 patients in 20 eases through cephalic vein, while 9 patients were cured and 2 patients were detubated in cephalic vein group. Conclusions It' s suggested that the prevalence of phlebitis with PICC through cephalic vein is high, with long treat time and low cure rate. It' s likely to reduce the phlebitis occurrence and patients relief from pain through eephalic vein.
