Standardized patient(SP) is the core element of medical student evaluation system and completes the contents and tasks of objective structured clinical skills examination(OSCE).Its training level directly affects the accuracy and science of the evaluation system.By training and management,SP can be applied in interrogation,physical and other exams for undergraduate,graduate,continuing education students.It has been recognized apparently that the application of SP meets the target of cultivating innovative medical talents and plays a key role in practice evaluation and appraisal system.SP is the useful supplement for the cmrent clinical teaching methods and means.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the morphology and proliferation of follicles from cryopreserved human ovarian tissue by vitrification.

METHODSOvarian biopsy specimens were taken from 12 patients. The specimens were randomly distributed into fresh group (Group A) and vitrification group (Group B). Histological examination and ultrastructural observation were performed after cryopreservation. Both were embedded in paraffin block and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was detected by immunohistochemical staining.

RESULTSThe proportions of primordial and primary follicles from Group A and Group B were 86.4%, 13.6% and 84.5%, 15.5%, respectively (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in proportions of morphologically normal primordial follicles between Group A and Group B (P>0.05); but the proportion of morphologically abnormal primary follicles was significantly higher in Group B than that in Group A (P<0.05). The ultrastructural studies showed that in histologically normal primordial follicles, there was no difference between Group A and Group B, while there were a few abnormalities of primary follicles in Group B. Granulosa cells and oocytes of primordial and primary follicles and stromal cells were positive for PCNA staining both in fresh and cryopreserved ovarian tissues; there were no differences between two groups.

CONCLUSIONVitrification is a favorable method in human ovarian cryopreservation.

Objective To explore the correlation between depressive symptoms and frailty,in order to provide evidence for prevention and relief of depressive symptoms in elderly inpatients.Methods A cross-sectional survey and comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA)were conducted with 248 eligible elderly inpatients from December 2015 to February 2017 in our hospital.Depressive symptoms were assessed by the 5-Item Geriatric Depression Scale(GDS-5),and frailty was identified by the frailty phenotype method.Results In all respondents,50 (20.2 ％)patients showed depressive symptoms,93(37.5 ％)patients had pre-frailty and 39 (15.7 ％)patients had frailty.Correlation analysis showed that frailty degree,low grip strength,slow gait speed,low physical activity,fatigue,and weakness were all positively correlated with depressive symptoms in elderly inpatients (r =0.441,0.315,0.426,0.316,0.395 and 0.151,respectively,P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that patients who had more severe frailty faced a much higher risk of developing depressive symptoms (OR=2.608,P＜0.05).Of the 5 indicators of frailty,slow gait speed and frailty also increased the risk of having depressive symptoms (OR =2.801 and 3.484,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Frailty degree,gait speed and fatigue are associated with increased risk of depression in the elderly.Depressive symptoms can be reduced in elderly inpatients with prevention and intervention of pre-frailty and frailty.

Objective To explore the effect of early exercise nursing on the gastrointestinal function recovery in patients with colon cancer after the operation .Methods One hundred and twenty-two colon cancer patients were chosen and randomly divided into the control group (n=60) and the observation group (n=62). The control group received the routine nursing , and the observation group received the early systematic exercise guidance on the basis of routine nursing .The situation of recovery and the incidence rate of postoperative complication were compared between two groups .Results The average length of indwelling stomach tube , exhausting and hospitalization were respectively (1.8 ±0.7)d,(1.1 ±0.4)d,(9.5 ±3.7)d in the observation group, and were (3.7 ±1.8)d,(2.1 ±1.5)d,(16.0 ±7.4)d in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (t=7.63,4.99, 6.10, respectively;P<0.05).The incidence rate of postoperative complication was 4.8%in the observation group, and was 51.7%in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =30.97,P<0.01).Conclusions The early exercise nursing in the patients with colon cancer resection can effectively promote their gastrointestinal function recovery , and significantly improve the quality of life , and shorten the hospital time , and reduce the occurrence of complication .

Background and objective Our previous study found that nicotine could induce lung cancer cell epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between nicotine-induced EMT and lung cancer invasion and metastasis. Methods Real-time PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression changes of EMT-related markers, E-cadherin and Vimentin, in A549 lung cancer cells treated with nicotine;hTe transposition ofβ-catenin protein expression was determined by immunolfuorescence;Scratch test and Transwell invasion assay were used to detect the effects of nicotine on lung cancer cell migration and invasion. Results Nicotine can signiifcantly down-regulate the expressional level of E-cadherin mRNA and protein of A549 cells in a manner of dose and time-dependent (P<0.01, P<0.01);Nicotine can signiifcantly up-regulate the expressional level of Vimentin mRNA and protein of A549 cells in a manner of dose and time-dependent (P<0.01, P<0.01);Immunolfuorescence results showed thatβ-catenin protein was signiifcantly transfered to nucleus;Scratch test and Transwell assay showed that Nicotine could remarkably increase the migration and invasion poten-tial of lung cancer cells (P<0.01, P<0.01). Conclusion Nicotine can induce cancer cells EMT, and promote the invasion and metastasis ability of lung cancer cells.

Background and objective Cisplatin is the ifrst-line drug for the chemotherapy of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the acquired chemoresistance restricted the effect of its treatment. hTe aim of this study is to validate the miRNAs related to the Cisplatin resistance in lung cancer and elucidate the molecular mechanisms. Methods We performed miRNA microarray and RT-PCR to obtain the aberrant differential expressed miRNAs between A549 and its paired Cisplatin-resistant cell line A549/DDP cells, and then we investigated the biological functions of miR-192, which is the aberrant differen-tial expressed miRNA. Atfer transfection of the miR-192 into A549 cells, we measured the half inhibition concentration (IC50), cell apoptosis of the trasfectant cells, and then we used biological sotfwares and dual-luciferase report assay to explore the target gene of the miR-192, which was further validated by RT-PCR and Western blot. Result MiR-192 was highly over-expressed in A549/DDP cells , whose quantity was 37.59±0.35 fold higher than that in A549 cells. Overexpression of miR-192 in A549 cells signiifcantly conferred resistance to Cisplatin and inhibited apoptosis. By contrast, down-expression of miR-192 in A549/DDP cells remarkably restrained the Cisplatin resistance and induced apoptosis. MiR-192 binded to Bim 3’-UTR and negatively regulated Bim expression at the post-transcriptional level in lung adenocarcinoma cells. Conclusion Our data suggested that miR-192 induced Cisplatin-resistance and inhibited cell apoptosis in lung cancer via negative targeting Bim expression.
