Objective To observe the effects of Kuijiening Plaster point application on the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ, IL-12 and anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-4, IL-10 in serum and colonic tissue of ulcerative colitis (UC) rats with spleen-kidney yang deficiency; To investigate the possible mechanism of Kuijiening for the treatment of UC with spleen-kidney yang deficiency. Methods Sennae Folium solution gavage, ice water stimulation and trinitrobenzene-sulfonic acid ethanol combinative methods were applied to establish the models of UC rats with spleen-kidney yang deficiency. Rat models were randomly divided into control group, model group, application group and SASP group, 10 in each group. The control group and model group were given medicine-free cataplasm matrix point application and perfused with NS. The application group was given Kuijiening Plaster point application and perfused with NS. SASP group was given medicine-free cataplasm matrix point application and perfused with SASP. The courses were 28 days. General conditions of rats in each group were observed during treatment. The general morphology and pathological form of colonic tissue were observed with naked eye and light microscopy through HE staining respectively in each group post-treatment. Pathological features were observed and scored by HE dyeing. Levels of IFN-γ, IL-12, IL-4 and IL-10 in serum and colonic tissue of rats in each group were detected with ELISA. Results The general conditions, gross morphology and optical microscope pathological morphology of colonic tissue improved and scores decreased in application group and SASP group. Compared with the model group, levels of IL-4 and IL-10 significantly increased, while the levels of IFN-γ and IL-12 decreased in serum and colonic tissue in application group and SASP group, with statistical significance (P<0.01). Moreover, levels of IL-4 and IL-10 in application group decreased not as much as those in SASP group, while IFN-γ and IL-12 concentration increased higher than SASP group, without statistical significance (P>0.05). Conclusion Kuijiening Plaster point application can play a role in treating UC with spleen-kidney yang deficiency through partially restoring the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in serum and colon tissue of rats.

Mini-clinical evaluation exercise(Mini-CEX) is a new tool used to evaluate clinical skill of internal residents.Through necessity,operation and practice of Mini-CEX applied in internal residents' clinical teaching,the paper makes it known that Mini-CEX is consistent with six requisitions of resident competence raised by Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).It increases medical and directorial quality,and is combined with doctor training abroad.Mini-CEX should be spread in training and examination of internal residents.

The pathological subtypes of breast cancer can be further divided into different molecular subtypes based on their immunohistochemical staining, such as estrogen receptor (ER) , progesterone receptor (PR) , human epidermal growth factor receptor2 (HER2) and Ki67 expression, including luminal subtype, HER2 overexpression subtype and triple negative subtype. The luminal subtype is defined as ER and/or PR positive. In molecular mechanism, the expression activity of ER can regulate the expression of PR, so the expression of ER and PR is usually consistent. However, in the process of detection, some breast cancers with inconsistent ER/PR expression often appear, especially those with ER (-) /PR (+) . There is still controversy about whether such cases are true. Patients with this type of breast cancer should be subjected to ER and PR immunohistochemical staining again, and then reclassified according to HER2 status. The expression of ER/PR is closely related to the efficacy of endocrine therapy for breast cancer, so its test results will directly affect the treatment options of clinician. This article will review and discuss the research progress of the causes and mechanisms of ER (-) /PR (+) breast cancer.
