Energy metabolism varies in different periods during the lifetime or in different pathological states. Resting energy expenditure (REE) may increase in some patients with malignant tumors, but may also show no significant difference when compared with healthy people or patients with benign tumors. The alteration of REE may be related to tumor site, pathologic stage, methods of treatment, and/or laboratory tests. The efficacy of a certain therapy may also affect REE in patients with malignant tumors: when a therapy is effective, the value of REE can return normal; however, when the treatment fails, REE will not be improved or become even higher.Mechanism governing the abnormalities of REE in patients with malignant tumors may be associated with the abnormal nutrition metabolism and the regulations of relevant cytokines.

Objective To set up forecasting models of week and ten days for chronic tracheitis.Methods The data of chronic tracheitis incidence and same time meteorological factors in 1998-2000 in Yinchuan,China were collected and analyzed using SAS6.0 statistical software.Results The incidence of chronic tracheitis was closely related with air temperature,air pressure and the other meteorological factors which showed that chronic tracheitis was caused integrated meteorological factors.Based on the correlation analysis,forecasting models of week and ten days for chronic tracheitis using multi-regression method was established.Conclusion Chronic tracheitis may be caused by integrated meteorological factors and the incidence of chronic tracheitis has a positive correlation with air temperature and a negative correlation with air pressure.

Objective To evaluate the influence of adenomyosis on IVF-ET outcomes in infertile patients with endometriosis.Methods 122 cases were divided into two groups:group A(research group)contained 32 patients in infertile with both adenomyosis and endometriosis;group B(control group) contained 90 patients with endometriosis.The main data measured were response to COH,outcome of IVF-ET.Results Both groups had no significant difference in Gn dosage,number of oocytes obtained,number of fertilization and number of cleavage(all p＞0.05),The clinical pregnancy rate of group A was 21.9%,which was lower than that of group B(30.0%),but there were no statistical difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion Adenomyosis had no adverse effects on IVF-ET outcomes in infertile women with proven endometriosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of standardized nursing intervention on airway inflammatory reaction evaluation by testing fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide in asthma patients.Methods 62 asthma patients were randomly divided into the intervention group(32 cases)and the control group (30 cases).Two groups were performed FENO determination before and after the treatment.The control group was given routine method for determination,the intervention group was given nursing intervention on the basis of conventional methods.The comfortable situation,satisfaction degree,treatment efficacy were determined between the two groups.Results The comfortable situation,satisfaction degree,treatment efficacy of the intervention group were better than those of the control group.Conclusions Standardized nursing intervention can eliminate the adverse interference in the FENO determination and improve the accuracy of the determination.It can also improve the clinical symptoms of patients with asthma and relieve airway inflammation.This method deserves to be recommended.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of psychological intervention and rehabilitation training on self-care ability and quality of life in patients with cerebral hemorrhage during postoperative recovery stage. Methods180 patients with cerebral hemorrhage in our hospital from October 2008 to December 2010 were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 90 cases in each group.The control group was given with routine care and rehabilitation measures.The observation group adopted psychological intervention and rehabilitation training based on the routine care.After treatment,the functional independence measure (FIM)and the quality of life index (QLI)were used for the evaluation of the level of quality of life and self-care ability. ResultsIn the quality of life index,the QLI score after treatment in the observation group improved significantly compared with that before treat ment.The QLI score in the control group before and after treatment showed no statistical difference.In the self-care ability,FIM score after treatment in both of the two groups improved significantly than that before.And FIM score after treatment in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group. ConclusionsApplication of psychological intervention and rebabilitation training in patients with cerebral hemorrhage during postoperative recovery stage shows pivotal importance.It can improve self-care ability and quality of life of patients and promote recovery effectively.

Mutations of BRCA1 and BRCA2 are closely related to developing of breast cancer andovarian cancer. There are a great diversity of founder mutations of BRCA1 and BRCA2. Their types and fre quency are greatly different in populations from different geographic regions and ethnicities. In particular ethnicgroups, founder mutations show a high frequency due to a founder effect. Compared with the expensive wholegenomic scan, screening of founder mutations which could provide information for the prevention and treatmentof related cancer is more convenient and easy to popularize with low cost.

Objective To study influence of psychological intervention on life quality of patients with non-erosive reflux disease(NERD) complicated with depression. Methods Patients with NERD and depression(95 cases) were divided randomly into the observation group(48 cases) and the control group(47 cases).The control group received oral administration of rabeprazole,10 mg,bid.The observation group was given psychological intervention based upon routine medication.Tbe reflux diagnostic questionnaire (RDQ), self-rating depression scale(SDS) and quality of life-index(QL-INDEX) scale were adopted for evaluation before and 8 weeks after treatment. Results The score of SDS was (41.58±6.85) in the observation group,which was lower than that of the control group,(50.42±9.26), after 8 weeks of treatment (P<0.01). The score of QL-INDEX was (8.56±1.38) in the observation group,which was higher than that of the con-trol group,(7.98±1.42), after 8 weeks of treatment (P<0.05). Conclusions Psychological intervention for patients with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) complicated with depression can ameliorate their de-pression state and improve their life quality.

Objective To investigate the effect of the psychological behavior intervention on the mental status and clinical symptom of patients with functional constipation. Methods All of 78 patients with functional constipation diagnosed by Rome m diagnostic code were randomly divided into study group (n =40) and control group (n = 38). The psychological behavior intervention was used in the study group, the caccagogue and symptomatic treatment was used in the control group. The self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depressive scale (SDS) was analyzed and the improving of clinical symptom, adverse effect was compared before and after 4 weeks of treatment respectively. Results The scores of SAS and SDS in the study group significantly decreased after treatment [ (36.25±8.61 )scores vs (42.97±9.25 )scores, P<0.01 ;(38.81±6.53)scores vs (43.36±7.18 )scores ,P < 0.01].There was significant difference between the two groups after treatment (P <0.05).The effective rate of study group was higher than that of control group .(97.50% vs 84.21%,P <0.05). The rate of celiodynia, diarrhea and the recrudescence after the course of treatment in control group was 23.68%, 15.79% and 89.47% respectively, while this numerus in study group was 5.00%,2.50% and 5.00%. Conclusions Psychological behavior intervention plays an important role in the treatment of functional constipation. It can improve the mental status, clinical symptom, and decrease the adverse effect.

Objective To assess the predicting value of homocysteine ( HCY), low density lipoprotein cholesterin (LDL-C) and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) for women with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods To choose 115 patients with CAD and 102 patients of non-CAD;Homocysteine, LDL-C and IMT were assayed respectively;comparison and correlation analysis were performed based on genders. Results The rates for hyperhomocysteinemia and High Lipoproteinaemia in female CAD patients are 59. 6% and 75.0%,respectively,while they are 69. 9% and 78.6% for male CAD patients,which are both remarkably higher than 23.0% ,26.7%, 22. 2% and 23.6% in non-CAD patients ( Ps ＜ 0. 05 ). ROC curve shows that the best diagnostic boundary point is 0.953 mm for female IMT and 1. 021 mm for male IMT. At the boundary point,the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value are 83.7% ,91.4% ,95.7% and 63. 8% in female, much higher than 62.9%, 65.3%, 76.2% and 53.3% in male. Conclusion hyperhomocysteinemia, high lipoproteinaemia are the important risk factors for women with coronary artery disease;IMT might be used as the predictor of CAD, which have more advantages for female than for male patients.

Rho(Ras homologue) family play an import ant role in intracellular signal-transduction pathways. Not until recently have they been found to overexpress in many kinds of tumors such as testicular germ cell tumor,colorectal tumor,breast cancer,ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas and prostate cancer and been linked to the tumorigenesis and metastasis. So the members of the Rho family of small guanosine triphosphatases would be new marker s for tumor diagnosis、new markers for the prediction of metastatic potential an d new important prognostic factors. Moreover,they have the potential as therape utic targets for the prevention of cancer invasion and metastasis. In this artic le, we review the recent progress in this field.
