Objective To investigate the status of self-care ability and cognition among disabled elderly,and to analyze the relationship between self-care ability and cognition,then analyze their influencing factors.Methods A total of 813 disabled elderly accepted long-term care at community or facility were recruited by stratified sampling method and investigated by socio-demographic questionnaire,activities of daily living and short portable mental status questionnaire.Results The total scores of self-care ability of the long-term care disabled was 32.01±11.59,and the total points of cognition was 3.77±3.24.Disabled elderly with severe disorders of self-care ability had a higher obstacle rate in every cognition ability than those with mild disabilities (P＜0.001).There were differences in orientation and memory function with different persistent disabled time (x2 =11.875,14.758,P＜0.01).Disabled elderly with cognition obstacles have a higher obstacle rate in every self-care aspect than those with normal cognition (P＜0.01).The multiple regression analysis showed that the educational level (β=-0.067),arital status (β=-0.071),disabled persistence time (β=0.121),orientation ability (β=0.403),the amount of cognition obstacles (β=0.443) were the influence factors of Basic Activities of Daily Living(BADL) among disabled elderly ; and disabled persistence time (β=0.116),orientation ability (β=0.417),recalled ability (β=0.275),memorial ability (β=0.189),calculative ability (β=0.257),the amount of cognition obstacles (β=0.358) were the important factors influence Instrumental Activities of Daily Living(IADL).Conclusion The self-care ability and cognition of the long-term care elderly were declining sharply,and influencing each other.It is advisable to offer them direct long-term care service combined with the laws and characteristics of cognition and self-care ability.

Objective To clone and sequence the dystonin variant X1 gene of Cricetulusbarabensis and the albino mutant Cricetulusbarabensis so as to find out the difference of encoding arear of the muscular ribosome between Cricetulusbarabensis and the albino mutant Cricetulusbarabensis.Methods According to the same type of abnormal muscle tone protein of the mice and rats, we designed 6 pairs of primers, and got their cDNA genes from skins of the Cricetulusbarabensis and the albino mutant Cricetulusbarabensis by RT-PCR amplification, then cloned and sequenced. Results Sequence alignment showed 17 variances in coding areas, and 24 in amino acid, but no in key nucleic acid and protein.Conclusion The variances in coding areas will not lead to the albino, and its mechanism requires further investigation.

Objective To explore the feasibility of the double venipuncture instead of central venous catheter as a temporary vascular access in hemodialysis.Methods The upper arm below the 1/3 was tied a tourniquet,and fistula needle directly punctured the vein in the middle of the elbow.After the success of the puncture,elastic bandage was replaced by a tourniquet,and the ball movement was done by imitating the blood donation member for blood donation at hand gripping a ball or elements as the artery blood lead.Another elbow vein or lower limb saphenous vein was punctured.Thirty patients using double venipuncture dialysis or central venous catheter dialysis 2 weeks or more were randomly selected into each group,and biochemical and renal function was measured before dialysis.Results All of 1 282 patients who were newly into the blood dialysis,mature arteriovenous fistula was in 8 patients (0.6％,8/1 282),deep venipuncture to insert the central venous catheter was in 542 patients(42.3％,542/1 282),using the double venipuncture was in 732 patients (57.1％,732/1 282).The flow of blood was 180-200 ml/min,the avalible time was 1-2 months.The serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen,calcium,phosphorus and carbon dioxide combining power had no significant difference between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The majority of patients with double venipuncture blood flow can satisfy the need of dialysis.Because the operation is simple,no recycling and may reduce the deep venipuncture,it is an ideal temporary vascular access.

Objective To prepare Exosomes secreted by mouse hepatoma cell (H_(22)) and heat stressed Exosomes (HS-Exo) derived from heat stress-treated mouse hepatoma cell (H_(22)), in order to study the possible anti-tumor immune mechanism. Methods Exosomes and HS-Exo were purified by serial ultracentrifugation and sucrose density gradiant centrifugation, and were observed and identified by electron microscope. The components and production of the protein and the effects of the host immune response against hepatocellular carcinoma of HS-Exo were observed by using Exosomes as the control. Their immunological factors were detected by Western blot. Lymphocyte proliferation and specific cytotoxic activity of mouse splenic cells were determined by MTT. CD4~+ and CD8~+ lymphocytes infiltration in mouse tumor tissues immunized by both were analysed by immunohistochemical staining. Results HS-Exo was similar in morphology to the Exosomes, the important immune-ralated protein expressed in HS-Exo was increased (P<0.05). HS-Exo immunized mouse group showed more effective inhibition of tumor growth, better-induced lymphocyte proliferation,more significantly enhanced the cytotoxic activity of spleen lymphocytes, as well as a more prominent role in tumor therapy than Exosomes immunized mouse control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Heat stress treatment method for the preparation of HS-Exo was feasible. HS-Exo had a stronger role in the immuneactivity and tumor treatment than control Exosomes.
