Objective: To investigate the relationship between the cognition and the self-rated health in military personnel in high altitude area. Methods: 490 military personnel in high altitude area were assessed with Self-rated Health Measurement Scale and the questionnaire of cognitive appraisal to environment and service. Results: The scores of the self-rated health in military personnel in high altitude area were higher than average(6.5~7.9, full score is 10); The main factors perceived by soldiers as having negative influence on health were poor communication with outside (53.6%), lack of opportunity of contact with opposite sex(51.8%), lack of amusement(48.4%)and service of hygiene(46.2%). Correlation analysis showed the cognitive appraisal factors were correlated with the self-rated health significantly(P

Abstract: Objective　To report the clinical characteristics and genetic test results of two children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), and to provide reference for the comprehensive diagnosis-treatment and follow-up plans of NF1 patients based on the existing diagnosis and treatment progress of NF1. Methods　Two children with NF1 admitted to the Department of Children's Medicine, Haikou people's Hospital in May and June 2022 were selected to analyze the clinical data of their clinical manifestations, laboratory examination, genetic test results, diagnosis and treatment and follow-up retrospectively. Results　Two children had typical clinical manifestations, such as café-au-lait spots, axillary freckles, intraocular iris hamartoma. Venous blood was collected from case 1 and his parents for NF gene test, and a new mutation of c.4084C>T in the NF1 gene was found, and their parents did not have the pathogenic gene; the venous blood of the children in case 2 was tested for whole-exome gene analysis, and a heterozygous nonsense variant c.910C>T:p.R304 on the NF1 gene was found, , which was verified by Sanger sequencing to be inherited from his mother, his mother has café-au-lait spots and brain glioma, and has undergone surgery to remove the brain glioma, but has not undergone chemoradiotherapy or targeted therapy. No neurological malignancies were detected in either of the two children at follow-up until July 2022. Conclusions　The clinical manifestations of NF1 are relatively typical, genetic testing is conducive to determine its classification, and regular follow-up review can help to detect and treat malignant tumors early, thus improving the patient's quality of life.

Objective To evaluated the role of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in the diagnosis of thoracic tuberculosis.Methods The study was retrospective,from September 2009 to September 2012,38 patients who underwent EBUS-TBNA were finally diagnosed of thoracic tuberculosis,with enlarged hilar or mediastinal Iymph nodes on chest enhanced computed tomography(≥ 1.0 cm).Patients in whom EBUS TBNA was nondiagnostic subsequently underwent surgical biopsy.All the patients had a minimum of 6 months clinical and radiologic follow-up.Results EBUS-TBNA was performed on a total of 88 lymph node stations in 38 patients.Of the enlarged lymph nodes,60(68.18％) were located in the mediastinal region and the remaining 28 (31.82 ％) around the hilum or interlobar area.Of the 38 patients,EBUS-TBNA achieved definitive diagnosis in 34 patients(89.47％).EBUS was well tolerated by all of the patients with no complications.Conclusion EBUS-TBNA is a safe procedure with a high yield for the diagnoses of thoracic tuberculosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and its clinical significance. Methods The mRNA expression level and protein level of survivin, hIAP-1 (human IAP-1), hIAP-2 (human IAP-2), and XIAP (X chromosome-linked IAP) in 36 NSCLC patients and 36 controls were analyzed by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting, respectively. Results High survivin mRNA expression were detected in 32 out of 36 patients, but not in controls. 26/36 NSCLC showed high XIAP mRNA expression and were significantly higher than those with benign diseases (P

ABSTRACT:Objective To study the effects of propofol on the metastasis of tumor cells related PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.Methods The breast cancer model was established by transplanting human derived breast cancer cell lines into immunodeficient mice with naked gene.The mice,inoculated successfully,were randomly divided into 4 groups:control group (C group,n =6),propofol group (P group,n =6),propofol+PI3K inhibitor (BYL71 9)group (P+B group,n =6),and PI3K inhibitor group (BYL71 9)(B group,n =6).The expressions of PI3K,p-Akt and Akt were examined by Western blot at week 4 after administration;the gene levels of PI3KR1, Akt1 and Akt2 were detected by RT-PCR at week 4 after administration;the number of metastatic lung nodules from both lungs was also observed at week 4 after administration.Results Compared with those in C group,the expressions of PI3K and p-Akt were significantly higher in P group (P <0.05),the level of PI3KR1 mRNA but not Akt1 and Akt2 mRNA was significantly increased(P < 0.05 ),and metastatic lung nodules significantly decreased (P <0.05).In B group,the expressions of PI3K and p-Akt were significantly decreased (P <0.05 ),the levels of PI3KR1,Akt1 and Akt2 mRNA were not significantly increased (P >0.05),but metastatic lung nodules significantly increased (P < 0.05 ).Compared with those in B group,in P+ B group the expressions of PI3K and p-Akt were markedly higher (P <0.05),the level of PI3KR1 mRNA but not Akt1 and Akt2 mRNA was significantly increased (P <0.05),and metastatic lung nodules significantly decreased (P <0.05).Conclusion Propofol can inhibit the metastasis of tumor cells through the upregulated and activated PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on the proliferation and apoptosis of lung cancer cells as well as the related molecular mechanisms.Methods HCC827 cells were seeded in well plates with a density of 1×106 and then randomly divided into 5 groups:control group (group C),intralipid group (group E),low-dose propofol group (1.5μL/mL,group P1),medium-dose propofol group (2.2μL/mL,group P2),and high-dose propofol group (3.2μL/mL,group P3).At 6 h,24 h and 48 h after propofol treatment,the cells were collected to detect their proliferation and apoptosis.At 6h after treatment,the cells were collected for the measurement of Nrf2 mRNA and protein by RT-PCR and Western blot.Results Cell inhibition rate (IR)and apoptosis as well as Nrf2 mRNA and protein expressions in group E did not differ significantly from those in group C (P>0 .0 5 ).Compared with those in groups C and E,IR and apoptosis and Nrf2 mRNA and protein expressions were significantly increased in groups P1,P2 and P3 (P<0.05).Conclusion Propofol can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and promote cell apoptosis,thereby inhibiting the reoccurrence and metastasis of cancer cells probably via regulating the activation of Nrf2 expression.

In order to compensate for the deficiencies of current medical education, improve the comprehensive quality of medical students, the First Clinical College, Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology took the lead in carrying out the health management practice of rela-tives and friends, and made a beneficial exploration of humanistic education for medical students. Relatives and friends were regarded as the specific practice objects, and by telephone and network at school, face-to-face communication during the vacation, medical students established, managed and track the health records of relatives and friends. The students could practice while learning, which made medical students, in im-proving the knowledge structure, enhance their emotional communication with friends and relatives, improve their doctor-patient communication ability, establish the concept of humanistic care, and cultivate their occupation moral respect for life and their dedication to medicine and the sense of responsibility and mission to the society. It provides a new strategy for medical humanities education.

Objective:To observe the effect of thoracic infusion of pseudomonas aeruginosa injection in malignant pleural effusion. Methods:A total of 90 patients with malignant pleural effusion were randomly divided into treatment group (31 cases),control group A (29 cases) and control group B(30 cases). Treatment group was treated with pseudomonas aeruginosa through intrathoracic infusion. Control group A and B were respectively treated with cisplatin and interleukin-2 through intrathoracic infusion. The clinical efficacy and adverse reaction were compared among the three groups. Results:The total effective rate of treatment group was 80.6%,the total effective rates of the control group A and B were 51.7%and 56.7%respectively.Compared with that of contral groups, the total effective rate of treatment group was higher, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of serious side effects and toxicity was lower in treatment group than in control groups. Conclusion:The effect of thoracic infusion of pseudomonas aeruginosa injection for malignant pleural effusion is significant, and the adverse reaction is mild. Thus it is worth to be promoted clinically.

Background Evidences, from recent studies, suggested that Borna disease virus (BDV) infection might be associated with human neuropsychosis, especially psychiatric disorders including depressive disorder(DD). However, controversy existed about the association between BDV infection and pathogenesis of DD. This study was to explore further whether the infection of Borna disease virus (BDV) is associated with the pathogenesis of depressive disorder (DD).Methods The p 24 fragment of BDV RNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 60DD patients and 120 healthy volunteers was detected by nested reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (nRT-PCR) combined with fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQPCR). Positive products were cloned and sequenced before being compared with Strain V and strain He/80, from humans and animals.Results The positive rate (5%, 3/60) of BDV p 24 in PBMCs from the DD patients was significantly higher than that (0%, 0/120) from healthy volunteers ( P＜0. 05). The gene sequence for the positive products showed BDV p 24 in PBMCs from DD patients in Chongqing was most homophylic with H1766 strain detected from iii horses (97.68%), with 2 situs mutations (nt 1675 T→C, nt 1678 C→T), and also similar to the standard strain V(96. 51%)and He/80(95.35 %), with basic exchanges limited to T- C and A→G.Conclusions There was BDV infection in the DD patients in China, which indicated that the pathogenesis of DD in human beings in Chongqing might be associated with the infection of BDV.

ObjectiveTo study the situation of grasping knowledge on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation ( CPR ) among the medical undergraduate interns before going to the clinic.MethodsEighty-five interns enrolled in 2011 were investigated by theory and skill exams to evaluate the cognition level on CPR and the survey results were analyzed by x2.ResultsThe average correct rate of the whole interns' theory and skill was only 44.8％.Theory exams of the clinical group performed better than non-clinical group (x2=8.57,P＜ 0.01 ).There was also no statistically significant difference between the clinical group and the non-clinical group about the average correct rate of the skill (x2=2.72,P＞0.05 )as well as between the female group and the male group (x2=0.03,P＞0.05 ).ConclusionThe medical undergraduate interns'theory and skill of CPR were generally poor,they should be trained before internship.
