Objective To study the regulatory effect of paclitaxel injection on vascular endothelial related factors in serum of uterine cancer patients.Methods 30 cases of uterine cancer patients treated with paclitaxel (observation group)and 30 cases of uterine cancer patients treated with surgery (control group)were selected.Chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA)was used to detect expressions of serum tumor necrosis factor(TNF), Interleukin-8(IL-8)and tumor specific growth factor (TSGF).Results Before treatment,there was no significant difference between the serum TNF, IL-8 and TSGF in observation group and control group(P<0.05).At 3 months after treatment,the serum TNF,IL-8 and TSGFwere significantly lower than before treatment ,which was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Paclitaxel can decrease serum TNF,IL-8 and TSGF in patients with uterine cancer,which provides a new theoretical basis for its anticancer effects.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy and mechanism of auricular point sticking plus Western medicine for moderate gastric cancer pain. Methods: A total of 80 patients were selected and divided into an observation group and a control group according to the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received Western medicine treatment, while patients in the observation group received additional auricular point sticking. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Numeric rating scale (NRS) and Karnofsky performance status (KPS) were adopted before and after treatment. The total time and times of flare-up pain in 24 h were recorded. The cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were detected. The clinical efficacy of both groups was evaluated after treatment. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05); after treatment, NRS scores of both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (both P<0.05), and the score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05); KPS scores of both groups were significantly higher than those before treatment (both P<0.05), and the score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the total time and flare-up times of pain during 24 h of both groups were significantly reduced (all P<0.05), and those of the observation group were significantly less than those of the control group (both P<0.05). After treatment, the COX-2 and TNF-α levels of both groups were significantly reduced (all P<0.05), and were lower in the observation group than in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The clinical efficacy of auricular point sticking plus Western medicine for moderate gastric cancer pain is valid. This combined treatment can alleviate cancer pain and improve patients' quality of life, which may be related to its ability to reduce COX-2 and TNF-α levels.

Objective To study the effects of aged and exercise training on hydroxylysylpyridinoline (HP) crosslinking concentrations of extracellular matrix in right ventricular (RV),left ventricular septum (LVS) and left ventricular free-wall (LVFW) in Fischer 344 rats.Methods We evaluated HP crosslinking concentrations of RV,LVS and LVFW extracellular matrix in young adult versus old Fischer 344 rats using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC).Rats were assigned to either a sedentary control group or an exercise training group.Results HP crosslinking concentrations in LVS [(0.23±0.01) vs.(0.43±0.03)mol HP/mol Col,P＜0.05] and LVFW [(0.22±0.05) vs.(0.51±0.03) mol HP/mol Col,P＜0.05] in old sedentary control rats were elevated compared with adult sedentary rats.In adult exercise training rats,training had no effect on HP crosslinking concentration in any of the three regions of the heart.As compared with old sedentary rats,HP crosslinking concentrations in LVS [(0.22±0.06) mol HP/mol Col vs.(0.43±0.03)mol HP/mol Col,P＜0.05] and LVFW[(0.21±0.07)mol HP/mol Col vs.(0.51±0.03) mol HP/mol Col,P＜0.05] were decreased in old exercise training rats.Conclusions HP crosslinking concentration are increased with aging in LVS and LVFW of rats,and exercise can prevente this age associated change.

Objective To evaluate CRP,peripheral WBC and neutrophil for the risk of coronary heart disease.Methods Plasma CRP levels,peripheral WBC and neutrophil count of 68 acute coronary syndrome(ACS)patients,28 stable angina(SA)patients and 33 controls were measured.Results There were significant differences of CRP levels,peripheral WBC and neutrophil count between the ACS group and the SA group or control group;CRP levels,peripheral WBC and neutrophil count in acute myocardial infarction(AMI)patients were much higher than those in unstable angina(UA)patients,SA patients and controls(P

The association of polymorphisms of calcium channel?1 subunit ( Cav1.1 ) gene ( - 1551T/C at exon 11 ) with thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) was investigated by PCR-RFLP.The distributions and frequencies of - 1551TC + CC genotype and C allele in TPP group were significantly higher than those in hyperthyroidism (HT) and normal control (CON) groups.There was no statistic difference between HT and CON groups.Cavl.1 gene - 1551TC + CC genotype and allele may contribute to the development of TPP in male HAN population from North China.

AIM: To investigate the difference of cognitive impairment and depression between age-related macular degeneration ( AMD ) group and the control group patients. ·METHODS: A prospective case-control study was performed from November 2014 to August 2016 in the hospital for AMD patients and sex-matched control group. The Mini-Mental State Examination ( MMSE) and the Geriatric Depression Scale ( GDS ) score of each patient were collected for statistical analyzing. ·RESULTS: There were total 84 cases ( 168 eyes ) included in the study. The difference of visual acuity between the two group was statistically significant ( F=8. 953, P=0. 004) by baseline data analyzing. There were no significant differences in MMSE scores between the two groups according to educational status ( P>0. 05 ) , while the prevalence of cognitive impairment in each group was statistically significant (x2 =4. 14, P=0. 042). The difference of GDS scores, prevalence of total and mild depression between two groups were both statistically significant (F=5. 852, P=0. 018; x2=6. 372, P=0. 012; x2 = 5. 674, P = 0. 017 ). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of moderate to severe depression (x2=0. 672, P=0. 412). ·CONCLUSION: AMD patients have a higher prevalence of depression. Although MMSE score differences were not statistically significant in subgroup analysis by educational levels, AMD patients are more likely to have cognitive impairment overall.

Objective To investigate the significance of serum IP-10 levels in different types of diabetic patients. Methods Serum IP-10 level in 78 cases with type 1 diabetes,49 cases with type 2 diabetes and 33 cases of healthy controls was measured with ELISA assays. Type 1 diabetic patients were divided into classic type 1 diabetes (n=39) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA,n=39) according to their disease process,and they were also divided into autoimmune type 1 diabetes (n=58) and idiopathic type 1 diabetes (n=20).Type 2 diabetic patients,according to carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),were divided into patients with (n=24) or without atherosclerosis (n=25). Results 1) Serum IP-10 levels were not statistically different among type 1 diabetes,type 2 diabetes and healthy controls. 2) Serum IP-10 concentrations in autoimmune type 1 diabetes with positive islet autoantibody were higher than those in healthy controls(184.96?104.48pg/ml vs 146.10?74.61pg/ml,P=0.03);while there were no difference in type 1 diabetes with variable disease durations. 3) No difference in IP-10 levels was found between type 2 patients with(173.5?69.6pg/ml) and without atherosclerosis (188.5?79.7 pg/ml). Conclusions Serum IP-10 level is augmented in autoimmune type 1 diabetes.

Objective Through application of clinical pathway in hospitalization patients undergoing uterectomy, we aimed to study the efficacy of clinical pathway in uterectomy patients. Methods 120 patients randomly sampled into the experimental group and the control group with 60 in each. The experimental group received diagnosis, treatment, nursing and rehabilitation according to the clinical pathway table, patients in the control group received routine nursing interventions. The average hospitalization days, medical costs, patient satisfaction degree, disease cognition, first exercise time after operation and medical disputes were compared between the two groups. Results The average hospitalization days and hospitalization costs of the experimental group were obviously lower than those in the control group, patients' satisfaction degree, knowledge of health and first functional exercise time in the experimental group were better than those of the control group, while the medical disputes in the experimental group were obviously de -creased in the experimental group. Conclusions Application of clinical pathway in nursing care for uterectomy patients can effectively decrease hospitalization days, medical costs and disputes. It is also helpful for patients to cooperate with doctors in diagnosis, treatment, nursing, thus increase the satisfaction degree of patients, ensure the reasonable use of medical resources and promote the sustainable improvement of nursing quality.
