Objective To investigate the status quo of nursing lack in level three first-class hospitals of Zhongshan city,and analyze the relevant reasons.Methods A sample of 765 nurses in 4 tertiary general hospitals completed the modified Missed Nursing Care Survey.Results Assessment,planning,intervention and evaluation were reported to be missed by 9.86％～39.04％,12.05％～44.38％,3.29％～46.85％ and 12.19％～22.05％ of the survey respondents respectively.Reasons for missed care were lack of labor resources(85.48％～93.84％),lack of material resources(80.00％～80.96％),low efficiency of the team (78.08％～86.58％),poor work habits (70.95％～83.84％),and improvement of patients’ needs (88.90％～93.01％).Conclusions Lack of care is widespread,and the degree of lack of each link is different.Reasons lead to the lack of care of nursing staff are higher patients’ demands to nursing work,shortage of nursing staff and unplanned surge of patients’ number.

Objective To study the effect of astragaloside on proliferation and apoptosis in human keloid fibroblasts.Methods The human keloid fibroblast ceils were treated with different concentration of astragaloside(10、20、40 ng/mL).Cell proliferation was detected by MTT,the gene expreesion levels and protein levels of apoptosis-related proteins,survivin,p53 and Bcl-2.were determined by real-time PCR and Western blot,respectively.Results Comparecl with control group(treated with 0 ng/mL astragaloside),the absorbance values (A490 nm) of each concentration group were significantly reduced,which suggest that the proliferation of all keloid fibroblast were markably inhibited in a dose-dependent way (P＜0.05).The gene expreesion levels and protein levels of apoptosis-related proteins,survivin、Bcl-2 were largely suppressed and P53 werelargely promoted in a dose-dependent.Conclusion The keloid fibroblasts cells proliferation and apoptosis could be regulated by astragaloside.

BACKGROUND: Experimental proof for the efficacy, safety, and immunological assessment is needed when minocycline is used for root canal disinfection.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of minocycline for root canal disinfection on levels of interleukin-17 in apical exudates of periapical periodontitis and periapical exudate volume.METHODS: Sixteen patients with acute periapical periodontitis (16 teeth) scheduled for root canal therapy were enrolled and randomly divided into calcium hydroxide and minocycline groups, respectively, followed by root canal disinfection.One week after disinfection, periapical index, periapical exudate volume and interleukin-17 level were detected prior to the root canal filling. Another 16 patients with normal pulp vitality (16 teeth) scheduled for single root canal filling were enrolled as control group, in which periapical index, periapical exudate volume and interleukin-17 level were detected.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The periapical exudate volume and interleukin-17 level in the calcium hydroxide and minocycline groups were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The periapical index and interleukin-17 level in the calcium hydroxide and minocycline groups were decreased significantly at 1 week after root canal disinfection (P < 0.05), while there was no difference between these two experimental groups in the periapical index, periapical exudate volume and interleukin-17 level. To conclude, the use of minocycline significantly reduces interleukin-17 level and periapical exudate volume, and thus achieves effective outcomes in periapical disease.

Objective To investigate the expression of MCM2 and its prognostic significance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods The expression of MCM2 was measured by immunohistochemistry in 73 cases of NSCLC and 10 cases of normal lung tissue. The correlations between the expression of MCM2 and clinic-opathological parameters and prognosis were investigated. Results There was no MCM2 expression in normal lung tissue and positive rate of MCM2 expression was 87.7% in NSCLC. The difference between the two groups was significant (P<0.001). The expression of MCM2 in poorly differentiated NSCLC patients was significantly higher than that in moderately- and well-differentiated NSCLC patients (P=0.008). The expression of MCM2 in patients with squamous carcinoma was higher than that in patients with adenocarcinoma (P=0.005). The hazard ratio was significantly higher(RR=3.389, 95 % CI=1.803-7.146,P<0.001), and the accumulated survival rate was significantly lower (P=0.001) in NSCLC patients with higher MCM2 expression than that of lower expression. MCM2 was independent prognostic factor of NSCLC patients (P=0.041). Conclusion MCM2 could reflect the reproductive activity of NSCLC and has some clinical significance for assessing the development and prognosis of NSCLC. MCM2 was a potential target for future treatment.

Objective:To investigate the influence of p33~ING1b and wt-p53 on the biological activities of pancreatic cancer cells. Methods: Sense and anti-sense cDNAs of p33~ING1b were cloned into pcDNA3 eukaryotic expression vector separately, and the recombinant plasmids were solely or co-transfected with wt-p53 into pancreatic cell line SW1990. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the changes of cell cycle, Western blotting was used to evaluate the expression of p33~ING1b and p53 protein, and MG-P-MY staining was applied to observe cell apoptosis. Results: SW1990 cells solely transfected with sense p33~ING1b plasmid or co-transfected with wt-p53 and sense p33~ING1b plasmid expressed more p33~ING1b and had more apoptosis than the antisense p33~ING1b plasmid and mock transfected cells did (P

Objective To explore expression of the minichromosome maintenance 2 (MCM2)protein and the mucin-like cell surface adhesion molecule CD24 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and their relationship with its prognosis. Methods Seventy-three patients of NSCLC diagnosed for the first time and received surgical treatment in Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing were selected for the study. Expression of the MCM2 and CD24 in pathological specimens of the patients was measured by immunohistochemistry and their relationship with its prognosis was analyzed retrospectively. Results High-level expression of the MCM2 and CD24 was seen in 42 and 54 of 73 NSCLC patients, accounting for 57. 5 percent and 74. 0 percent,respectively. Risk of death for the patients with high-level expression of the MCM2 or the CD4 was significantly higher as compared to those with low-level expression ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). Risk of death for patients with both high-level expression of the MCM2 and CD24 was significantly higher than that in those with only high-level expression of the MCM2 or the CD24 (HR =2. 59, 95%CI 1.40 -4. 80, P=0. 002) and in those with both low-level expression of them ( HR = 15.32, 95 % CI = 2.07 - 113.41, P = 0. 008 ). But there was no significant difference in risk of death between patients with high-level expression of the MCM2 or CD24 and those with low-level expression of both of them ( HR = 5. 60, 95% CI 0. 79 - 44. 82, P = 0. 083 ), and cumulative survival rate of patients with both high-level expression of the MCM2 and CD24 was significantly lower than those with only high-level expression of the MCM2 or the CD24 ( P = 0. 001 ). Conclusions Both expression of the MCM2 and the CD24 are independent prognostic factors for NSCLC and combined detection of the two markers have higher prognostic value for it.

Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is the most common complication after cataract surgery.How to prevent and treat PCO is an urgent problem we need to solve at present.Non-coding RNA(ncRNA) is a kind of RNA, which can not encode proteins.Studies have shown that non-coding RNA is closely related to the occurrence and development of human diseases.This paper has collected the progress of research on different kinds of ncRNA in PCO and may raise new ideas and methods on the prevention and treatment of PCO.
