Background and purpose:In order to look for the new biomarker with higher specificity and sensitivity, we investigated the relationship between expression of MGB-2 and chemotherapy response, and tried to find out whether MGB-2 may sever as a prognostic factor for the patients with ovarian carcinoma. Methods:The expression of MGB-2 was detected by flow-cytometry technology in ovarian carcinoma tissue. We analyzed the correlations among MGB-2 expression and clinical pathological factors, therapeutic effect and prognosis of the patients with ovarian carcinoma.Results:Positive detection of MGB-2 was 78%.(66/885). For the patients whose serum CA125 level did not drop to normal level after two courses of chemotherapy, the MGB-2 positive rate was significantly higher than in those whose serum CA125 level decreased markedly ( 85% vs. 62%, P=0.018). The positive rate was also higher in patients with recurrent disease than in those without recurrence (83% vs. 67%, P=0.097). In univariate survival analysis, the expression of MGB-2 was significantly associated with median survival time (P=0.021).Conclusions:MGB-2 expression is correlated with chemotherapy response and poor prognostic for the patients with ovarian carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the alteration of CD4+ regulatory T cells in peripheral blood from patients with ankylosing spondylitis(AS). Methods Seventy-eight AS patients and 50 healthy individuals were included in this study. The proportion of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/- T cell population in CD4+ T cells as well as that cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTL) and NK cells in lymphocytes was evaluated by flow cytometry. Serum TGF-β and TNF-α were measured by ELISA. The inhibitory function of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells was measured by mixed lymphocyte culture. Results The population of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/- T cells in peripheral blood of AS patients accounted for (4.36±1.21)% of CD4+ T lymphocytes, which was significantly lower than that in healthy individuals (P<0.05). The CD4+CD25+CD127lo/- T cells population in AS patients was positively correlated with TGF-β level, but negatively with TNF-α. Compared with healthy individuals, the function of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells in the inhibition of alloreactive T cells was lower in AS patients, which was related to the decreased secretion of TGF-β. Conclusion The CD4+ regulatory T cells in peripheral blood of AS patients are significantly decreased and its function is defective, which leads to immune regulatory dysfunction in vivo. It may be one of immune pathogenesis mechanisms of AS.

Objective To describe the status of nurses′professional identity and the self-concept and to explore the relationship between nurses′professional identity and the self-concept. This will be the base for intervening nurses′professional identity. Methods A convenience sample of 250 nurses from one major hospital in Beijing was recruited. The Macleod Clark Professional Identity Scale and the Professional Self-Concept Instrument were introduced. A standard translation procedure was carried out. Results A total of 250 questionnaires were sent out, 241 questionnaires were withdrawed with an effective rate of 96.4%. The mean score of nurses′professional identity was 42.54±8.70, which was at moderate level. The mean score of nurses′professional self-concept was 86.28 ±22.86, also at moderate level, among which,knowledgescores highest (25.91±6.00), leadership scored 20.84±8.02, inter-personal relationship scored (20.28±4.18), caring scored the lowest (19.25±4.67). There was significant difference among the professional identity in the different departments (P<0.05) , while the same results were not seen in professional self-concept. Nurses′professional identity was positively correlated with professional self-concept′s four dimensions (P<0.05). Conclusions The nurse managers should pay attention to the cultivation of professional self-concept in the training of nurses in order to improve the professional identity of nurses and the whole nurses′development.
