Objective To explore the discrepancy of anxiety and depression between breast cancer patients and general population,to provide reference for psychological ethical intervention.Methods Breast cancer patients and general population admitted randomly from October.2008 to April.2009 were assessed according to Self-reporting inventory,Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS).Patients with breast cancer were come into the study group(n=100) and general population come into the control group(n=100),and then psychological ethical intervention was provided to each group.Results The Morbidity of anxiety and depression in breast cancer patients is much higher than that in the general population(P

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of less invasive surfactant administration(LISA) of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS).Methods:From July 2017 to December 2018, 50 premature infants with birth weight ≤1 500 g and/or gestational age≤32 weeks diagnosed as NRDS at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital were randomly divided into LISA group( n=25)and INSURE group( n=25). The patients in LISA group was inserted fine duct into the trachea through direct laryngoscope under nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) and pulmonary surfactant was injected.The INSURE group adopts endotracheal intubation-pulmonary surfactant-nCPAP was performed after unplugging.The changes of vital signs, blood gas indexes, adverse reactions and the incidence of complications were compared between two groups at different time points. Results:There was no significant difference in respiration, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and PaO 2, PaCO 2, BE, SpO 2 between two groups at different administration time points.Although the pH value of LISA group was lower than that of INSURE group, it was within the normal range.There was no significant difference in bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, periventricular leucomalacia and other complications between two groups, and there was no death, air leakage, retinopathy of prematurity and pulmonary hemorrhage in both two groups.In addition, there was no significant difference in hospitalization days, total medical expenses, oxygen use time between the two groups(all P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with INSURE technology, LISA technology has its feasibility for premature infants with NRDS, but the effectiveness and safety in the practical application need to be further confirmed.

Gastric cancer is a serious malignancy that endangers human health. Increased rates of chemotherapy-resistant cancer have led to a decrease in the efficacy of treatment. Recent studies found that the presence of hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment was a notable cause of gastric cancer resistance to chemotherapy drugs. The abnormal structure and function of blood vessels in the tumor and the rapid proliferation of tumor cells increase the oxygen consumption of tumor cells, which results in tumor tissue hypox-ia. Hypoxic conditions make tumor cells more aggressive, more likely to metastasize and develop resistance to chemotherapy. In this paper, we have reviewed the progress of research into hypoxia-induced chemotherapeutic drug resistance in gastric cancer. The review has covered the causes of hypoxia and the characteristics of the hypoxic microenvironment in gastric cancer, the current situation and causes of hypoxia-induced chemotherapeutic drug resistance in gastric cancer, and the measures to overcome the hypoxia-induced re-sistance to chemotherapy drugs.

Objective:
To investigate the relationship between miRNA-196b-5p and miRNA-99a-5p expression and autophagy and apoptosis in multiple myeloma cells.
Methods:
Human myeloma cell line U266 and normal CD138+ plasma cells were selected as the research objects. The subjects were divided into 45 cases of multiple myeloma patients and 40 healthy controls. The expression of miRNA-196b-5p and miRNA-99a-5p was measured by real-time quantitative PCR, and Western blot was used to determine the expression of autophagy related protein LC3-Ⅱ, LC3-Ⅰ, P62, Beclin-1 expression, apoptosis related protein CL caspase3, CL caspase7, Bcl-2, Bax, and TGF-β/Smad pathway associated proteins TGF-β1, Smad2/3, p-Smad3 and Smad7. The cell apoptosis rate was determined by flow cytometry. The correlation between miRNA expression level and clinical characteristics of multiple myeloma patients was analyzed.
Results:
Compared with normal plasma cells, the expression of miRNA-196b-5p in myeloma cells increased significantly (0.43±0.15

Background:
Classical swine fever (CSF) is a severe infectious disease of pigs that causes significant economic losses to the swine industry.
Objectives:
This study developed a solid-phase blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (spbELISA) method for the specific detection of antibodies against the CSF virus (CSFV) in porcine serum samples.
Methods:
A spbELISA method was developed based on the recombinant E2 expressed in Escherichia coli. The specificity of this established spbELISA method was evaluated using reference serum samples positive for antibodies against other common infectious diseases.The stability and sensitivity were evaluated using an accelerated thermostability test.
Results:
The spbELISA successfully detected the antibody levels in swine vaccinated with the C-strain of CSFV. In addition, the detection ability of spbELISA for CSFV antibodies was compared with that of other commercial ELISA kits and validated using an indirect immunofluorescence assay. The results suggested that the spbELISA provides an alternative, stable, and rapid serological detection method suitable for the large-scale screening of CSFV serum antibodies.
Conclusions
The spbELISA has practical applications in assessing the vaccination status of large pig herds.
