Epstein-Barr virus is a kind of herpes virus that has oncogenic potential and is related to the tumorgenesis process of various malignancy. Important advances have been obtained on the study of the structure and functions of Epstein-Barr virus(EBV) latent membrane protein 1(LMP1) and signal transduction pathways mediated by LMP1 in recent years. LMP1 could regulate cellular growth, proliferation, transformation, differentiation, transference and apoptosis by means of signal transduction pathways such as NF-?B, AP-1, JAK/STAT, Ets1, MAPK/ATF2 and cyclin dependent kinase.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of AFP,AFU and the combined detection of AFU and AFP in PHC.Methods To analyse the detection results of AFP,AFU and AFP and AFU from 80 PHC patients and 40 healthy controls by ROC curve.Results AFP and AFU were significantly different between them (P

Researches have indicated that matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) play a key role in the metastasis of nasopharynx carcinoma (NPC). They promote tumor cell infiltration and metastasis by proteolysis of extracellular matrix proteolysis of tumor cells and induction of angiogenesis and lymphangioenesis. Researches on the mechanism of MMPs and VEGFs on NPC may help to further understand the metastasis of NPC and develop new methods for the diagnosis and treatment of NPC and other tumors as well.

Objective To study the cell metabolism changes of hippocampal region in patients with vascular dementia (VD) after stroke by 1 H-magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 H-MRS),and to observe the relationship between cell metabolism changes and clinical symptoms after donepezil hydrochloride treatment.Methods Enrolled 18 patients with VD after stroke,16 males and 2 females,with a mean age of (76.9±2.7) years,13 patients without VD after stroke,11 males and 2 females,with a mean age of (76.2±3.6) years and 14 health volunteers as control group,12 males and 2 females,with a mean age of (75.1+2.4) years.The mini-mental state examination (MMSE),activities of daily living (ADL) and Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) were used to assess the effects on cognitive function,ability of daily living and behavior symptoms.1 H-MRS examination of bilateral hippocampus was conducted in all subjects.Metabolisms of N-acetylaspartate (NAA),choline (Cho) and creatine (Cr) were examined and the ratios of NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr were calculated.The patients with VD were prescribed donepezil and given 1 H-MRS assessment half a year later.Results The patients with VD had a significantly lower NAA/Cr ratio in bilateral temporal hippocampus area than did health controls and the patients without VD (F=4.23,4.98,both P＜0.05),and a higher Cho/Cr ratio than did health controls and the patients without VD in left hippocampus (P＜0.05).The NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr ratios in patients without VD had no significant changes compared to health controls.There was a positive relationship between MMSE score and NAA/Cr ratio,and negative relationship between MMSE score and Cho/Cr ratio in the bilateral hippocampus area in patients with VD.After 6 months of treatment of donepezil hydrochloride,the MMSE and ADL scales significantly increased (both P＜0.05),and NAA/Cr ratio had no significant change in hippocampal region (t=-2.02,-2.04,both P＞0.05),whereas Cho/Cr had significant decrease (t=2.86,2.23,both P＜0.05).Conclusions The data suggest that the lower NAA/Cr ratio and higher Cho/Cr ratio in hippocampus area might be helpful in distinguishing VD and no-VD in patients with stroke.Donepezil improves general cognition function in patients with VD,which may be associated with regulating the cholinergic pathogenesis of VD in vivo and in vitro.

As one of the "three key virtues" of Confucianism,wisdom played a significant role in the thousands of years of traditional Chinese culture.The nature of medical skills is humanity.However,as the great development of medical technology in modern society,tension and conflicts also arise in the current physician-patient relationship.Under this circumstance,this paper explores the origin of Confucian wisdom and its connection with modern physician-patient relationship,and comes up with suggestions for constructing a modern harmonious physician-patient relationship.

An analysis of the existing incentives mechanism of performance appraisal for community health service centers, and insight into the challenges for linking the post performance appraisal in community health service centers with incentive measures. It is pointed out the administrators should take a variety of measures including material incentive, target incentive, knowledge incentive, and emotional incentive among others. In addition, such measures should be used sophistically, flexibly and reasonably, while timing of incentives should meet the human resource needs of the institution, notably a combination of positive incentive with negative ones,, mostly the former incentive.

Objective To study the drug resistance situation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from the patients with HIV/AIDS complicating tuberculosis (TB).Methods One hundred and ninety-six inpatients with AIDS complicating TB in our hospital from January 2012 to December 2015 were collected.The drug resistance situation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains cultured from sputum/tissue fluid/fiber liquid and pathological tissue submitted samples in the patients with AIDS complicating active TB was analyzed.The BACTEC MGIT960 systems was adopted to perform the bacterial identification.The drug sensitivity test was conducted by using 960 culture testing system.Results One hundred and ninety-six strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were cultured,the total drug resistance rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was 26.02％.These cases were divided into the ＞100/μL and ≤100/μL groups according to different CD4+ T cells count.The drug resistance situation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to 4 kinds of first line anti-TB drugs were compared between these two groups.The comparison results found that the resistance rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains to the first line anti-TB drugs had no statistical difference between the two groups (P＞0.05).The resistance rates of first line anti-TB drugs from high to low were isoniazid,rifampicin,streptomycin and ethambutol.The drug resistance rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains to 5 types of drug resistant TB had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion The drug resistance rate in the initial patients with HIV complicating TB is consistent with the average initial drugresistance level of TB patients in our country.The TB drug resistance rate in the patients with HIV complicating TB has no correlation with CD4+ T cells count.

Due to a great amount of data in clinical trials, the data cleansing needs to adopt a variety of measures, including the latest developed visual check approach. According to the different types of clinical data and the different stages in the course of clinical data management, this study reviews 8 types of visual graphics that show the relevance and trend among the data. The series of graphics can rapidly detect abnormal data, monitor clinical research in real-time, make the data management process much easier and improve the clinical trial efficiency and data quality.

Electronic case report forms (eCRFs) instead of the traditional paper case report forms (pCRFs) are increasingly used by investigators and sponsors of clinical research. We include a total of 14 phase III studies (8 pCRF, 6 eCRF) to compare paper and electronic data documentation both quantitatively and qualitatively in clinical studies. The result suggests that adaptions of electronic data capture (EDC) in clinical trials have the advantages in optimization of data capture process, improvement of data quality and earlier clinical decision compared to paper-based methods. Furthermore, the successful implementation of EDC requires accouplements with corresponding data management processes and reallocation of resources.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), a common head and neck neoplasm in southern China,is mostly treated with radiotherapy, however, it can not be completely cured by chemoradiotherapy. Recent investigation on NPC suggests that the nasopharyngeal carcinoma stem cells can be differentiated to heterogeneous cancer cells that have a strong ability for self renovation and further contribute to the development and progression of tumor itself which is closely related to drug resistance, recurrence and metastasis of NPC. Wnt/β-catenin, Notch, Hedgehog, NF-κB and mTOR signaling pathways play important roles in cancer stem cells. Study on nasopharyngeal carcinoma stem cells targeted therapies and its related pathways provides a new strategy for the clinical treatment of NPC.
