We investigated health condition and evaluate the viability of Barthel's measuring scale for 1297 elder patients at 17 nursing homes.We nursed all patients by standards and performed a comparison study.The nursing percentages of highest and lowest levels were higher than the previous ones ( P ＜ 0.01 ),while the nursing percentage of normal level was lower than the previous one ( P ＜ 0.01 ).The cooperation between doctors and nurses became optimized through progressive patient care.Ideal nursing standard should be based upon the doctors' judgment and nurses' evaluation.The new standard will be more suitable for patients and easier to control for nurses.

Based on a comprehensive questionnaire survey and analysis of factors which trans formation of Scientific and Technological Achievements in Medical,some strategies to accelerate transformation were proposed by this paper.

Objective To study the mutation of papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) E6 gene, and to compare with the result of other researchers. Methods DNA was extracted from cervical cancer tissue sam-pies, then HPV16 E6 genes were amplified and sequenced using the HPV16 E6 specific primers from cervi-cal cancer DNA samples. Results HPV16 E6 gene mutations at the position of nt178 were found in 18 case from 35 cervical cancer samples, the mutation rate was 51.43%, resulting in nucleotide change of Asp to Glu. E6 mutations are found at the position of nt442 in 4 cervical samples. E6 mutation was found in 1 to 2 case in other nucleotide. Conclusion High frequency mutations of E6 gene of HPV16 at the position of nt178, nt442 have been found in cervical cancer samples in Hubei, China. The role of E6 gene mutation in cervical cancer development should be studied further.

Objective To explore the molecular effect and interaction among nephrin, podocin, CD2AP and ?-actinin-4. Methods Firstly, the recombinant RNA interference (RNAi) plasmid-psiRNA-hH1GFPzeo, specifically targeting to the mRNA of nephrin, podocin, CD2AP or ?-actinin-4, was respectively tansfected into the mouse podocyte clone (MPC5) to each knockdown (KD) the expression of nephrin, podocin, CD2AP or ?-actinin-4. Molecular distributions were revealed by confocal microscopy, and the mRNA and protein expressions were detected with semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results (1)In podocin KD group (siPod966 and siPod54), the mRNAs of podocin and nephrin were not detected, their protein decreased 92% and 79%, 82% and 67%, respectively. The mRNA and protein level of CD2AP increased 62% and 42%, 71% and 46%, respectively, whereas ?-actinin-4 did not change. In nephrin KD group (siNep492), the mRNA expression and protein level of nephrin were not detected, CD2AP increased 35% and 48%, respectively; and whereas podocin and ?-actinin-4 did not change. In CD2AP KD group (siCda744 and siCda21), the mRNA of expression CD2AP was not detected, and its protein level decreased 92% and 83%, the mRNA and protein of nephrin decreased 60% and 48%, 76% and 72%, respectively; podocin increased 38% and 22%, 56% and 44%, respectively; whereas ?-actinin-4 did not change. In ?-actinin-4 KD group (siAct1790 and siAct319), the mRNAs expression of ?-actinin-4 and nephrin decreased 69% and 58%, 64% and 49%, respectively; their protein level decreased 81% and 55%, 71% and 64%, respectively. However, the mRNAs of podocin and CD2AP increased 50% and 34%, 45% and 28%, respectively; and their protein level increased 64% and 46%, 65% and 42%, respectively. (2) With their expression change, the distributions of nephrin, podocin and CD2AP shifted evidently from the cell membrane surface to the nucleus circumference, whereas ?-actinin-4 showed no change, which was still localized in the cytoplasm and further extended to foot processes. Conclusion (1) Nephrin might more independently play a crucial role in the slit diaphragm complex. (2) Alpha-actinin-4 might interact direcdy or indirectly with nephrin, podocin and CD2AP. (3) The relationship among these podocyte molecules might not be spontaneous, either a single-directional or bi-directional reaction. (4) The normal localization of these podocyte molecules might depend on their normal expression quantity.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanisms underlying therapeutic responses of the anti-proteinuria drugs from the view of podocyte molecule. Methods Adriamycin (ADR) nephropathy was induced by a single tail intravenous injection of adriamycin. Lisinopril, prednisone and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) were administered once a day to the adriamycin-induced nephrotic rats at the first day after adriamycin injection respectively. Renal tissue samples were collected at day 3, 7, 14, and 28 after adriamycin injection respectively. The distribution, mRNA expression and protein expression of nephrin, podocin, CD2AP and ?-actinin-4 were examined by indirect immunofluorescence, real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The interactions among nephrin and podocin, nephrin and CD2AP, as well as the nephrin phosphorylation were detected by immunoprecipitation, respectively. Results Compared to the control rats, 24 h urinary protein of the ADR rats increased significantly at day 14 (P

Objective:To explore caspase-6's effect on the apoptosis of osteosarcoma cell line SOSP 607. Methods: The expression level of caspase-6 in the osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9067 was examined by RT-PCR method. The adeno-virus adv5 vector with caspase-6 gene was constructed and transferred into the osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9607 by lipo-fection. The cell survival rate after transfection was assayed by MTT method. The cell morphological changes were observed by microscope and electron microscope, the apoptosis of transferred cells were examined by gel electrophoresis. Results:No expression of caspase-6 was examined in the osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9607. A high expression of caspase-6 was identified by RT-PCR after the transfection. The cell growth curve declined after transferring caspase-6. Electrophoresis of DNA displayed the apoptosis ladder. Conclusion: Transferring caspase-6 into the osteosarcoma line SOSP-9607 may inhibit the growth of the osteosarcoma cell line SOSP-9607 and this effect might be achieved by inducing apoptosis.

Objective To observe the effects of ventilation with low tidal volume and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)in different periods on the postoperative pulmonary function and short-term prognosis in aged patients undergoing abdominal surgery.Methods Sixty aged patients undergoing selective open abdominal surgery scheduled for general anesthesia,21 males and 39 fe-males,were randomized into 3 groups (n =20).Patients in group A received PEEP 1 h after the be-ginning of surgery;patients in group B received PEEP 1 h before tracheal extubation;patients in group C received PEEP intraoperatively.The secretion score in preoperative,postoperative 24 h and 72 h respectively,and the arterial blood gas analysis indexes (PaCO 2 ,PaO 2 ,A-aDO 2 ,PaO 2/FiO 2 calculation)in postoperative 1 h and 24 h were recorded.Results Compared with preoperative,in postoperative 1 h,PaCO 2 increased obviously in all groups,PaO 2 decreased in group B,A-aDO 2 in-creased in group A (P <0.05);in postoperative 24 h,PaCO 2 was significantly increased in group B and C,PaO 2/FiO 2 decreased in group B (P <0.05).Compared with postoperative 1 h,in postopera-tive 24 h,PaCO 2 and A-aDO 2 decreased obviously in group A (P <0.05).There were no differences in postoperative secretions score in between the 3 groups.Conclusion Low tidal volume combined short-range PEEP in different periods of surgery may improve postoperative pulmonary oxygenation. But they had no obvious help with postoperative pulmonary complications.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients with single spinal metastasis of thoracic, lumbar or sacral vertebra treated with microwave ablation in situ.Methods:For 28 patients with single spinal metastasis of thoracic, lumbar or sacral vertebra, detailed and personal surgical plans were carried out. Instead of en bloc resection, hyperthermia ablation in situ was performed followed by strengthening procedures under the guidance of G-arm fluoroscopy machine. Intraoperatively, spinal cord and nerve root were properly protected. The bone defects were reconstructed by bone cement after the diseased lesions were revomed. All patients were followed up for almost 1 year postoperatively. During follow-up, X-ray and MRI images were obtained, and the level of pain and neurologic outcomes were also examined.Results:All 28 patients successfully received microwave ablation in situ. The average ablation time was approximately 8 minutes and the average amount of bone cement implanted was approximately 10.5 ml. The pain scores of digital pain classification before and 3 months after operation were 7.86±1.58 and 3.07±1.89( P<0.05). The postoperative neurological function of 22 patients was improved than that before operation. No significant changes were observed in 5 patients. The neurological function of the affected limb was relieved, whereas the symptoms of the healthy limb were slightly worse in the remaining case. Conclusions:Microwave ablation in situ is a feasible and effective surgical method for single spinal metastasis of thoracic, lumbar or sacral vertebra. It might possess many advantages, such as clear surgical field, smaller incisions, less bleeding, and safe margins during the operations. Further more, it could significantly relieve pain, restrict tumor growth, and improve the quality of life of patients. It is an innovative and distinctive therapeutic alternative for single spinal metastasis, which deserves widespread application.

To perform modal analysis of CT shelter by applying computer simulation technology so as to pro-vide theoretical guidance for CT shelter structure optimization. Based on CAD model, the finite element model of a CT shelter was established with ANSYS simulation platform. Through modal analysis, different-order modal frequency and modal shape of the shelter were computed and the kinetic characteristics were evaluated. Low order modal frequency was kept away from the natural frequency range of chassis system resonance to avoid the overall structure reso-nance; the 3rd and the 4th modal frequency and engine idle speed frequency were very close so that local resonance might occur; road roughness excitation frequency covered the first 6 order modal frequencies and the further vibration-re-ducing measures of CT equipment were suggested. Based on the theories of finite element method and current software platform, modal analysis of shelter structure can be simulated and the results can provide valuable data for the improvement of kinetic characteristics and structure design.
