Objective To explore the current situations in self-management of cancer patients over peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and the influencing factors. Method Self-designed general demographic data form, disease-related questionnaire and PICC self-management ability for cancer patients were used to investigate 98 tumor patients with PICC. Results The total score on self-management ability of the cancer patient with PICC was (150.85 ± 17.35). The influencing factors of their self-management of PICC included education level, economic condition, presence or absence of long-term caregivers and cognitive disorders, all contributive to the prediction of 28.60%total variance for the patients′self-management capability. Conclusions Cancer patients have a better ability in managing PICC, but a few patients failed to grasp self-management skills, which was resulted from many factors. Nurses should pay more attention to those with less education, under poorer economic conditions and without long-term caregivers, and provide them with more care and education so as to comprehensively improve their self-management skills.

Objective To understand the effects of drinking water and source water on DNA breakage of human peripheral blood lymphocytes (HPBL). Methods The organic compounds in drinking water and source water were adsorbed by GDX_102 resin for solid phase of gas choromatography. DNA damages of lymphocytes were detected by single cell gel electrophoresis. Results At the same exposure doses to organic extracts of water, the DNA damages of HPBL exposed to organic extracts of surface water were heavier than those exposed to organic extracts of deep underground water, and heavier DNA damages were also observed in HPBL exposed to organic extracts of finished water from water plant treating ground source water compared with those exposed to organic extracts of finished water from water plant treating deep underground source water. Significant dose_response relationships were observed between the exposure doses of organic extracts of water samples and the degrees of DNA damages of HPBL. Conclusion The organic extracts of source water samples collected from surface water and ground water and its tap water samples could cause DNA breakages of HPBL in different degrees in a certain city.

Objectives To explore the effects of budesonide (BUD) on airway remodeling and the levels of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and its expression in lung tissue of asthmatic rats. To provide a theoretical basis for the intervention and treatment of asthma. Methods Sixty healthy adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group, asthma model group and BUD treated group, 20 rats in each group. A rat asthma model was established by ovalbumin (OVA) challenging. BUD treated group was treated with inhaled BUD 1 mg/kg in 30 min per serving every other day for two weeks. After OVA challenge finished, the rats were anesthetized and sacrificed for BALF and lung tissue collection. The level of TGF-β1 in BALF was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. TGF-β1 expression and collagen deposition in the lung tissue were tested with immunohistochemical determination and Masson stain respectively. The computer image analysis system was used for measuring respiratory bronchiole smooth muscle thickness (μm) and the extent of epithelial damage score and other indicators of airway remodeling. Results Compared with that in the control group, TGF-β1 in BALF and lung tissue of asthma model group increased and were correlated significantly with the indicators of airway remodeling (P < 0.01) ;while that of BUD treated group reduced statistically significant than model group (P < 0.05). Pathology examination on asthma rat airway epithelial tissue showed the thickness of airway smooth muscle, the airway deposition of collagen in BUD treated group reduced obviously than asthma model group. Conclusions The expression of TGF-β1 in the rat asthma airway worsens the airway remodeling. The effects of BUD on ameliorating the progression of airway remodeling may be partially made by reducing the expression of TGF-β1. (J Clin Pediatr,2010,28(2):173-177)
