Based on collecting, arranging, analyzing the literature, the most widely used assessment tools in caring behavior, caring ability and nursing caring characters were introduced. The problems were found out from its application at home and abroad. The aim was to provide the reference that developing and revising the assessment tools of nurses′humanistic that fit for the Chinese local culture.

Objective To discuss the activation and biological effects of STAT3 signaling pathway and its negative regulator PIAS3 in glioma cells. Methods Immunohistochemistry(IHC)was used to test the expression of p?STAT3 and PIAS3 in gliomas. AG490(60μmol/L),the in?hibitor of STAT3 signaling pathway,was used to treat U118 and U87 cells for 24/48 h,and the method of MTT assay was taken to evaluate the pro?liferation after AG490 treatment. The expression of p?STAT3 and PIAS3 was also examined by immunofluorescence(IF). Results There was no obvious significance between p?STAT3 and PIAS3 in nuclei or cytoplasm at different grades of gliomas. Whereas,p?STAT3 and PIAS3 were nega?tively correlated in the nuclei of vary grades malignancy gliomas. After AG490 treatment,U118 cells showed no obvious quantitative changes. How?ever,U87 cells showed obvious growth inhibition. IF results showed that there was no significant change at the levels of p?STAT3 and PIAS3 after AG490 treatment in U118 cells. However,the expression of p?STAT3 in the nuclei was down?regulated,and PIAS3 showed obvious nuclear translo?cation in U87 cells. Conclusion Nuclear translocation of PIAS3 plays the key role in modulating JAK/STAT signaling activation and inhibiting glioma cells proliferation.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of liver transplantation including living related liver transplantation for Caroli's disease (CD). Methods Seven consecutive patients with diffused type of Caroli's disease had undergone liver transplantation (LT) from September 1999 to February 2007 in our single center. The clinical characteristics and survival of these patients were retrospectively reviewed. Results All 7 patients were diagnosed as Caroli's disease with diffused type which manifested recurrent cholangitis in clinical symptoms. Among them, 4 were female and 3 male.The mean age was 16 years old (ranging from 10 to 31 years old). Six patients were subjected to conservative therapy and only one patient had previously undergone cholecystectomy and T tube drainage before transplantation. In types of surgery, 4 patients accepted split liver transplantation with right liver lobe, two got whole liver transplantation and only one underwent living related liver transplantation. In two patients venovenous bypass was done during the operation. The mean duration of surgery was 9. 1 h. Post-transplant complications included pulmonary infection (3 cases), acute rejection (2 cases), pleural effusion (2 cases) and biliary leakage in the split section of donor liver (1 case). One patient died within 19 days caused by acute renal failure and multiple organs dysfunction.The rest six patients are alive without any signs of recurrence of protopathy and the longest survival time is 7 years. Conclusion Liver transplantation is a valuable treatment to Caroli's disease with diffused type. Due to the organ shortage, living related liver transplantation may own identical effects on LT.

Objective To evaluate if continuous hemihepatic inflow occlusion(HH)during hepatectomy can be as safe and effective as intermittent total hepatic inflow occlusion(TH)in reducing blood loss during hepatectomy.Methods From November 2001 to March 2006.eighty patients undergoing liver resections were included in a prospective randomized study comparning the intra-and postoperative course underTH(n=40)or HH(n=40).TH was performed with periods of 20 minutes of occlusion and 5 minutes of releasing,while HH with continuous occlusion.The surface area of liver transection was measured and blood loss was calculated.The amount of blood loss,levels of alanine aminotransferuse (ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and postoperative course were recorded. Results The total ischemic time of the HH groups was longer than in the TH group[(42±13)min,(31±13)min,P=0.37],and the operative time in the HH group was longer than in the TH group[(236 ±49)min,(204±38)min,P=0.02 ].No signincant difierenee was found between HH and TH group in blood loss during liver parenchyma transection[(500 ±269)ml,(416 ±235)ml,P=0.14]and in the changes of ALT and AST on the first postoperative day[ALT:(677±572)IU/L,(577 ±327)IU/L,P=0.12;AST:(591 ±468)IU/L,(512±301)IU/L,P=0.66].There were no difierences on postoperative morbidity between the two groups(22.5%versus 20.0%,P=0.35).Conclusion The technique of continuous hemihepatic inflow occlusion is as safe and effective as intermittent total hepatic inflow occlusion.

Objective To evaluate the suitability of reported standard liver volume formulae for Chinese adults based on the practice of 216 cases of living donor liver transplantation in our transplantation center. Methods The graft volume was preoperatively estimated in 179 adult-to-adult right liver living donors by two methods: first, the radiological right liver volume by computed tomography (CT) and second,calculated graft volume obtained by reported standard liver volume formula and the percentage of the right liver volume ( given by CT). Both results were compared to the actual graft volume measured during surgery.Results The mean percentage of right liver volume was 55.4% (SD 5.41%). The results of Urata、Heinemann、Vauthey、 Lee、 Yoshizumi formula were significantly larger than the actual right liver volume (P <0. 01 ). The result of Sheung-tat Fan was less than the actual right liver volume, there was statistical ESLV =334. 024 + 11. 508 × BW, is most suitable to estimate adult Chinese donor's right liver volume.

Objective To explore the indications for liver transplantation among patients with hepatolithiasis.Methods Data from 1 431 consecutive patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent surgical treatment from January 2000 to December 2006 were retrospectively collected for analysis.Surgical procedures included T-tube insertion combined with intraoperative cholangioscopic removal of intrahepatic stones,hepatectomy,cholangiojejunostomy,and liver transplantation.Results Nine hundred and sixty-one patients who had a stone located in the left or right intrahepatic duct underwent hepatectomy or T-tube insertion combined with intraoperative cholangioscopic removal of intrahepatic stones.The rate of residual stones was 7.5%(72/961).Four hundred and seventy patients who had a stone located in the bilateral intrahepatic ducts underwent surgical procedures other than liver transplantation;the rate of residual stones was 21.7%(102/470).Only 15 patients with hepatolithiasis underwent liver transplantation;they all survived.According to the degree of biliary cirrhosis,recipients were divided into 2 groups: a group with biliary decompensated cirrhosis(n=7),or group with biliary compensated cirrhosis or noncirrhosis group(n=8).There were significant differences in operative times,transfusion volumes and blood losses between 2 groups(P
