Objective To explore the self efficacy of newly-contracted nurses in a tumor hospital in Guangzhou and to find out the related factors. Methods By convenience, cluster sampling method, 333 newly-contracted nurses from a tumor hospital in Guangzhou were recruited in the study. The general self-efficacy scale (GSES) and a self-designed demographic questionnaire were used to look into their self-efficacy and explore the related factors. Results The average score of self efficacy was (2.67 ± 0.41). The level of self-efficacy was related to education and the type of hospital for internship. Nurse with bachalor degree and graduated from comprehensive hospital had higher self-efficacy. Conclusions The self efficacy of the newly contracted nurses is intermediate. The education level and the type of hospital for internship both influence the level of self efficacy. The special hospitals should strengthen the teaching and training of students and lay stress on developing their capacity to prepare them for the job.

‘Stasis-heat’is a pathological factor that arises from exogenous and endogenous injuries in the development and progression of diseases.It can also be the pathogenesis at a certain stage of disease.It manifests clinically as the syndrome of‘Stasis-heat Interactivity.’Through long-term clinical practice‘Stasis-heat’has been found to spread in a variety of diseases’processes and has general clinical significance.Using‘Stasis-heat’theory in prescribing an herbal formula can significantly improve clinical efficacy,displaying the advantages of using traditional Chinese medicine to prevent and treat acute and severe diseases.According to more than 30 years of research and clinical practice,based on ongoing discussion and revision by experts,we have developed the‘Guide to TCM Syndrome Differentiation and Treatment of Stasis-heat Interactivity Syndrome,’a work that is an essential reference for both Chinese medicine and integrated Chinese and Western medicine clinicians.This article lays the groundwork in the hope that other experts will provide further input that will improve the guidelines laid out in this piece of work.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between root and root canal diameter of maxillary central incisors and age by cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT).Methods:CBCT images of 420 cases of Chinese Han population were divided into 7 age groups as follows:1 5 -24,25 -34,35 -44,45 -54,55 -64,65 -74 and 75 -84(n =60).Root diameter and root canal diameter of maxillary central incisors at the 3 /4 level from the cemenal-enamel junction(CEJ)to root apical were measured.Linear-regression a-nalysis was used to analyze the correlation between root and root canal diameter of the teeth and age,T-test was used to examine the gender difference.Results:Mean root diameter(mm)of the teeth in males and females were 5.81 ±0.445 and 5.53 ±0.489(P <0.05),mean root canal diameter(mm)1 .20 ±0.396 and 0.96 ±0.236(P <0.05),mean of the ratio of root canal diameter and root diameter of the teeth 0.21 ±0.072 and 0.1 7 ±0.043(P <0.05)respectively.There were negative correlations between the ratio of root canal diameter and root diameter of the teeth with age (R2 =0.576,P <0.05).Conclusion:The ratio of root canal diameter and root diameter of maxillary central incisors is negitively correlated with age in Chinese Han population.The decrease of root canal diame-ter in males is more significant than that in females.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of detecting mammaglobin in sentinel lymph nodes(SLN) of breast cancer. Methods In 32 breast cancer patients, methylene blue was injected around parechyma of breast cancer to locate the SLNs, and nested RT PCR(reverse transcriptase polgmecane chain reaction) was used to examine the expression of mammaglobin mRNA. Results The SLN was successfully identified in 30 of the 32 cases(93.8%).The micrometastases detection between group SLNs and non SLNs had significant statistical difference(P

Objective: To further study the effects of As 2 O 3 in various concentrations on the esophageal carcinoma cell line. Methods: The esophageal malignant transformed epithelial cells (SHEEC1) were induced by HPV18 in synergy with TPA in our laboratory. The cells cultured in flask and 24 wells plate were treated by As 2 O 3 with concentrations of 1, 3 and 5 ?mol/L for 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 h respectively. The morphologic changes of cells were observed under election microscopy. The mitotic index (MI) of living cells was calculated by phase contrast microscopy and the cells with TdR uptake were examined by autoradiography. The proliferative index (PI) and apoptotic index (AI) were assayed by flow cytometry. Results: A low dosage of As 2 O 3 (1.0 ?mol/L) enhancing the protiferative rate of SHEEC1 was demonstrated with TdR uptake, MI and PI increased. The high AI and low PI were found in the high concentrations (3 and 5 ?mol/L)of As 2 O 3 . The morphological changes of apoptosis and necrosis were found in 24 h after As 2 O 3 in high concentrations (3 and 5 ?mol/L) administrated. Conclusion: The effects of As 2 O 3 in various concentrations are different. Low concentration of As 2 O 3 promotes the proliferation of the esophageal carcinoma cells by increment of DNA synthesis. In high concentration of As 2 O 3 apoptosis and necrosis are induced.

Objective: To investigate the antitumor effects of arsenic trioxide (As 2 O 3 ) on solid tumor in vivo , the transplanted hepatic carcinoma of mice were treated with various dosages of As 2 O 3 . Methods: After 50 mice were injected intraperitoneally with 0,2, 4, 6, 8 ?mol/g As 2 O 3 respectively for observation of acute toxicity, 1, 2, 3 ?mol/g were selected for this experiment. Eighty mice were transplanted with hepatic carcinoma cells (1.5?10 6 cells/each side) into both subaxillae. As 2 O 3 in 0, 1, 2 and 3 ?mol/g were injected into right subaxilla respectively once every day for 10 days. At the 30th day after transplanted hepatic carcinoma cell, mice were killed and the size of solid tumors was measured. The chronic cytotoxicity of As 2 O 3 was observed in these mice.Results: In right subaxillae tumors, which were injected directly with As 2 O 3 , were apparent smaller than that in the left ( P

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficiency of transcatheter anastomotic leakage closure after surgical procedures for non-infected ascending aortic pathology with different occlusion devices. Methods From Dec. 2013 to Sep. 2015, six cases received interventional therapy for anastomotic leakage after surgical procedures for non-infected ascending aortic pathology using occluders. Four cases were with proximal graft-vessel anastomotic leakage, including two pseudoaneurysms at the site of aortic roots and two ascending aorta to right atrium shunts. The other two cases were with artificial grafts to intraoperative stent anastomotic leakage leading to endoleak type Ib. The anastomotic leakage was totally occluded by single ADOⅡrespectively in four cases. Two detachable coils were implanted in one case with artificial graft to intraoperative stent anastomotic leakage, but mild residual shunt to false lumen was detected by DSA and follow-up CTA. The second interventional procedure was carried out one month later, and one ADO Ⅱ was used to close the residual leakage totally. One PDA occluder was implanted along arteriovenous guide-wire track via aortic root to right atrium fistula in one case. Results All the anastomotic leakages of the six cases were totally excluded by different occlude devices percutaneously. The technical success rate was 100%. Follow-up time was from 1 month to 4 years. The patients' clinical condition improved obviously. Follow-up CTA showed no recurrence of anastomotic leakage. Complete thrombosis and marked shrinkage of the pseudoaneurysm were achieved in two cases, and the partial thrombosis and shrinkage of the false lumen were achieved in 2 cases. Conclusion Trans-catheter closure is an alternative treatment for ascending aortic surgical anastomotic leakage, which may achieve satisfactory short-and mid-term results.
