Objective To study the influence of postural intervention on ambulation of patients after video-assisted thoracoscope surgery? Methods One hundred and forty eight patients having undergone chest cardiac surgery were randomly divided into the control group(n = 75)and the observation group(n = 74)? The former received routine nursing intervention and the latter postural intervention besides routine nursing? The two groups were compared in terms of the time for ambulation and the ability in ambulation? Result The ambulation in the observation group was earlier than the control group and the ability in ambulation was better compared to the control group(both P < 0?05)? Conclusion The postural intervention after thoracic surgery is effective in pushing patient’s ambulation and improve their ability?

Objective To evaluate the influence of ankle pump motor on deep vein thrombosis after surgical operation.Methods 138 cases of patients after surgical operation who were assessed as high risk patients,were randomized into the study group (70 cases)and the control group (68 cases),routine nursing was adopted in the control group,while in the study group,ankle pump motor was adopted in addition.The incidence of deep vein thrombosis was compared between two groups.Results No deep vein thrombosis was found in the study group,while 1 case of thrombosis was detected in the control group,but there was no statistic difference.Conclusions Ankle pump motor was easy and convenient,and can prevent deep vein thrombosis by promoting the reflux of the lower limbs,improving the recovery of patients after operation,and increasing nursing quality as well.

Pediatric surgery is the important part of the paediatrics,and the complicated content,limited time and many difficulties are the main problems of pediatric surgery teaching.The bed side teaching is the supplement for the class teaching,which could solve those problems.Multi-media technique is used in bed side teaching of Pediatric surgery,which is convenient for preparing lesson and teaching of teachers and review and summary of students.After the technique is used,the teaching efficiency and the quality are obviously improved.

Objective:To explore the influence of tumor cells on CD4+CD25+Treg cells via TLRs.Methods:The numbers changes of CD4+CD25+Treg cells in the co-culture system of Lewis lung cancer cells and splenic lymphocytes were detected by flow cytometry;The expression of Foxp3 and TLR1-9 mRNA after co-culture were detected by RT-PCR;TLR9 expression on Lewis lung cancer cells was blocked by TLR9 receptor antagonist chloroquine.Results:Compared with control group,the number of CD4+CD25+Treg cells and Foxp3 mRNA expression were significantly increased in the co-culture group(P

Objective To explore the effect of ankle strategy stability limit training on balance and gait in recovering stroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods Forty recovering stroke patients were randomized into an intervention group and a control group.The patients in the intervention group were given ankle strategy stability limit training using visual feedback on the static long sets of a Smart Equitest Balance Master (SEBM) machine.Those in the control group practiced routine postural balance training using mirror visual feedback in parallel bars.Both groups of patients practiced balance and posture control for 30 minutes,once daily,6 days a week for two weeks. Both groups were also given routine therapy and other rehabilitation.The patients' balance function was evaluated using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS),and their gait was assessed using the walk across technique (WA). Results There was no significant difference between the two groups with regard to general information,BBS scores or WA results before treatment.After 2 weeks of treatment,BBS scores as well as the step length and pace in the WA improved significantly in both groups,but all improved significantly more in the intervention group.There was no significant difference in width of gait. Conclusion Ankle strategy stability limit training can enhance weight-bearing on stroke patients' affected foot as well as their balance and the symmetry of their steps.

Objective:To explore the influence of tumor cells on CD4~+ CD25~+ Treg cells via TLRs.Methods:The numbers changes of CD4~+ CD25~+ Treg cells in the co-culture system of Lewis lung cancer cells and splenic lymphocytes were detected by flow cytometry;The expression of Foxp3 and TLR1-9 mRNA after co-culture were detected by RT-PCR;TLR9 expression on Lewis lung cancer cells was blocked by TLR9 receptor antagonist chloroquine.Results:Compared with control group,the number of CD4~+ CD25~+ Treg cells and Foxp3 mRNA expression were significantly increased in the co-culture group (P＜0.05).The expression of a variety of TLRs were affected by the co-culture of lymphocytes with Lewis lung cancer cells,and TLR9 mRNA expression was significantly increased compared with that of the control group (P＜0.05);Blocking TLR9 of Lewis lung cancer cells significantly reduce CD4~+ CD25~+ Treg cells and Foxp3 mRNA (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Lewis lung cancer cells could increase both number and function of CD4~+ CD25~+ Treg cells through inducing TLR9 expression in immunocells.This might be one of mechanisms of tumor-induced immune tolerance,and by which to contribute to the occurrence and progression of tumors.

BACKGROUND:The prosthesis fusion rate after total hip replacement is closely related to the reconstruction process of bone,which is affected by the factors around the implant of patient.Trace elements are strongly associated with the ossification.Thus,the content of trace elements in proximal femur may affect the bone fusion and survival rate of the prosthesis.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the correlation of trace elements and bone fusion surrounding the prosthesis in proximal femur.METHODS: Bone samples were obtained from the discarded metaphysis region of the proximal femur in 24 patients with primary total hip replacement.Trace element (calcium,magnesium,zinc,parathyroid hormone,activated vitamin D3) contents were detected aftervitro cel culture.Bone mineral density was tested surrounding the prosthesis at 1 week,3 and 6 months after replacement by dual energy X-ray absorption method with a bone density meter.The difference in trace elements was compared in patients at different ages and different genders.The correlation between above five kinds of trace elements and bone mineral density was analyzed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in trace element contents was detected in different age groups and different gender groups (P＞ 0.05).Zinc content was positively correlated with parathyroid hormone and magnesium contents (P＜ 0.05).Zinc was positively associated with bone mineral density in the region 7 (P＜ 0.05).The further studies concerning the trace elements in proximal femur can be used to predict and intervene in the longevity of hip prosthesis.

BACKGROUND:The correlation of zinc with Stro-1+cells and bone morphogenetic protein 7 surrounding the prosthesis may affect the bone fusion and survival rate in hip prosthesis. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:To analyze the correlation of zinc content with Stro-1+cells and bone morphogenetic protein 7 in proximal femur. ＜br> METHODS:Bone samples were obtained from the discarded metaphysis region of the proximal femur in 24 patients with primary total hip replacement. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in vitro. At 14 days after culture, Stro-1+cells in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were detected using flow cytometry. Bone morphogenetic protein 7 expression in cellsupernatant was detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Zinc content in supernatant was measured using radio-immunity assay. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significant difference in the zinc content was detected in different age groups and different gender groups. Zinc content was positively associated with Stro-1+cells and bone morphogenetic protein 7 expression. The further study of the trace element zinc in proximal femur can predict and intervene the longevity of hip prosthesis.
