Objective:
To discover molecular markers associated with lung adenocarcinoma diagnosis/prognosis and drug resistance through screening of differentially expressed genes based on published chip data in gene expression databases using bioinformatics methods.
Methods:
Comprehensive analysis was performed in available mRNA microarray datasets including lung adenocarcinoma tissues dataset GSE32863 and lung adenocarcinoma taxane-platin resistance dataset GSE77209 from the gene expression omnibus(GEO) database. Gene ontology enrichment analysis, gene pathway enrichment analysis and protein interaction network analysis were performed based on significantly correlated genes. The expression level of genes was validated in the cancer genome atlas(TCGA) dataset. Survival differences were assessed by the log-rank test in TCGA lung adenocarcinoma dataset. Based on the publications genomics of drug sensitivity in cancer(GDSC) database in CellMiner cross database(CellMiner CDB), Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between differentially expressed genes and the half-maximal inhibitory concentration(IC50) of anticancer drugs.
Results :
There were a total of 77 genes which had a different expression in resistance lung adenocarcinoma cells and lung adenocarcinoma cancer tissues. The functional enrichment analysis showed that these co-different expression genes were mainly enriched in microtubule, extracellular exosome, cell cycle and signaling by nuclear receptors. Protein-protein interactions(PPI) network screened 6 most connected genes as molecular complex(MCODE). Among the MCODE, overexpressed ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 T(UBE2T), kinesin family member 20A(KIF20A), PCNA clamp associated factor(KIAA0101), pituitary tumor-transforming gene 1(PTTG1) and NIMA related kinase 2(NEK2) were associated with poor outcomes. Survival analysis results showed that these five genes were upregulated in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and drug-resistant cells and were significantly associated with poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma patients. Drug sensitivity analysis results suggested that high expression of PTTG1 and UBE2T was significantly associated with sensitivity to multiple anticancer drugs, including paclitaxel and docetaxel. RT-PCR validation showed that PTTG1 andUBE2T were highly expressed in docetaxel-resistant cells A549-TXR and H358-TXR.
Conclusion
PTTG1 andUBE2T holds the potential to be chemoresistance markers in lung adenocarcinoma.

Objective:
To compare the effect of two different methods of "3-PR" participatory health education and traditional distribution of publicity materials on health literacy improvement of medical students, to provide a reference for making more effective measure to improve health literacy.
Methods:
173 Second-grade students in nursing major were selected in a secondary vocational school in Datong City. Two different intervention methods were used to intervene for 8 weeks. The experimental group (92 students) received "3-PR" participatory health education; the traditional health education intervention in the control group(81 students). The "National Residents’ Health Literacy Monitoring Questionnaire 2015" was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on the experimental group and the control group before and after the intervention, and to compare the effects before and after the intervention.
Results:
The average score of health literacy was (36.04±9.43) points and (36.01±10.17) points before and after intervention in the control group; (35.78±8.91) points and (49.53±13.53) points before and after intervention in the experimental group; No statistical difference between experimental and control group was found before intervention(t=0.18, P=0.86); There was no significant difference in health literacy score before and after intervention for the control group(t=0.03, P=0.98); Health literacy significantly increased in the experimental group after intervention(t=-11.36, P=0.00). Adequate health literacy accounted for 3.70% and 4.94% before and after intervention in the control group and 4.35% and 45.65% in the experimental group before and after intervention. No significant difference was found in adequate health literacy proportion between the two groups before intervention(χ2=0.00, P=1.00). However, the difference showed statistically significant after intervention(χ2=36.58, P=0.00). The change of health literacy score in the control group and the experimental group was (-0.02±7.52) and (12.75±10.77), respectively, accounting for 1.24% decrement and 41.30% increment. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=-8.93, P=0.00). The dimension-and type-specific score of health literacy showed similar pattern.
Conclusion
The "3-PR" participatory health education model is more effective than the traditional health education method in improving health literacy, and it could be carried out by multi-disciplinary students.

Based on participatory idea, we constructed a novelty model of participatory health edu-cation, which was based on participatory research as the module, participatory role-playing as the core mod-ule, participatory review as enhanced module (abbreviation to as "3-PR"). We applied it to pre-selected health officer health promotion activities, and randomized controlled trials were designed. The results showed that "3-PR" model of participatory health education might be more effective in promoting health literacy than conventional health education methods. "3-PR" health education model has the advantages of participation, practicality, fun and flexibility, integration and education, which has certain reference signifi-cance for exploring health education methods and improving the health of the whole people.

Objective To investigate the loss of motor unit and it's influencing factors in the lower motor neurons after middle cerebral artery infarction. Method Forty patients with first onset and unilateral middle cerebral artery infarction were divided into cortical-basal ganglia(26)and basal ganglia(14)groups and 10 healthy controls were served as control group.All included patients were scored by National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS),modified Rankin scale (mRS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) at 48 hours of admission. Nerve conduction study on the limb and motor unit number estimation (MUNE) on abductor pollicis brevis were performed at 2-4 weeks after onset, and the data of single motor action potential (SMUAP) were collected. SPSS 20.0 software was used to statistical analysis. Result The MUNE on were significantly lower and the amplitude and area of SMUAP were significantly increased in ipsilateral than contralateral sides (cortical-basal ganglia group:95.85±26.82 vs. 143.65±38.86, P<0.001; basal ganglia group: 126.71± 44.13 vs. 157.36±56.72, P=0.001). The affected MUNE was significantly decreased in the cortex-basal ganglia than in basal ganglia groups (95.85±26.82 vs.161.40±48.90,P=0.027). The MUNE was negatively correlated with NIHSS score (r=-0.362,P=0.022)and mRS score(r=-0.339,P=0.032).NIHSS score(β=-1.603,P=0.032,95%CI:-3.064~-0.142)and mRS score(OR=2.885,P=0.025,95%CI:1.139~7.158)on admission could predict the loss of MUNE on the affected side. Conclusion This study reveals the loss of motor unit and the compensation of remained motor unit on the affected side after middle cerebral artery infarction,NIHSS score and mRS score on admission may predict the loss of MUNE after stroke.
