Objective To explore the application value of serum heat shock protein 90α(Hsp90α)combined with β2-microglobulin(β2-MG)detection in the early diagnosis and prognosis of colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods A total of 101 patients with CRC who received their first treatment were selected as the CRC group(no surgery,radiotherapy or chemotherapy before enrollment),100 patients with benign colon tumor admitted to our hospital during the same period were selected as the benign tumor group and 94 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in our hospital were used as the control group.The levels of serum Hsp90α and β2-MG in all subjects were detected by ELISA.Follow-up was conducted every three months within the first two years after surgery,and every six months in the third year,for a total follow-up period of 3 years,and the survival status of CRC patients within 3 years was recorded.ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum Hsp90α and β2-MG for CRC.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curves of CRC patients with different expression levels of Hsp90α and β2-MG.Results The serum levels of Hsp90α and β2-MG increased successively in the control group,the benign tumor group and the CRC group(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in serum levels of Hsp90α and β2-MG between CRC patients of different genders,ages and lesion locations.The levels of serum Hsp90α and β2-MG in patients with tumor diameter>5 cm,low differentiation degree,TNM stage Ⅲ and lymph node metastasis were higher than those in patients with tumor diameter≤5 cm,moderate to high differentiation degree,TNM stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ and no lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).The ROC results showed that the combined diagnostic efficacy of serum Hsp90α and β2-MG was superior to that of serum Hsp90α or β2-MG alone(Z=2.433,2.435,P<0.05).Based on the average expression levels of serum Hsp90α and β2-MG in CRC patients(76.66 μg/L and 6.52 μg/L),patients were divided into the high expression group of Hsp90α(59 cases),the low expression group of Hsp90α(42 cases),the high expression group of β2-MG(63 cases)and the low expression group of β2-MG(38 cases).Among the 101 CRC patients,31 died and 70 survived,with a total survival rate of 69.31%.The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 3-year survival rates of patients with high expression levels of Hsp90α and β2-MG were lower than theose of patients with low expression levels of Hsp90α and β2-MG(P<0.01).Conclusion The expression levels of serum Hsp90α and β2-MG are both elevated in CRC patients,and they are closely related to the occurrence,development and prognosis of CRC.

Objective:To explore the correlations between caregiving burden, psychological resilience and acceptance of caregivers of patients with Alzheimer disease.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 140 caregivers of patients with Alzheimer disease who visited outpatient department of Department of Geriatrics and Neurology of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were selected as research objects from February 2019 to August 2020. Caregivers Burden Inventory (CBI) , Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-second edition (AAQ-Ⅱ) were used to investigate the caregiving burden, psychological resilience level and acceptance level of caregivers of patients with Alzheimer disease. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between the caring burden of caregivers and psychological resilience and acceptance, and multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the factors affecting the caregiving burdens of caregivers.Results:A total of 140 questionnaires were sent out and 132 were recovered. The scores of caregiving burden, psychological resilience and acceptance were respectively (48.62±10.22) , (64.32±13.25) and (16.25±5.62) . The scores of various dimensions of caregiving burdens of caregivers of patients with Alzheimer disease were negatively correlated with scores of various dimensions of psychological resilience ( P<0.05) , and positively correlated with the acceptance score ( P<0.05) . The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that marital relationship, education level, family income, psychological resilience and acceptance were the influencing factors of caregiving burden of caregivers of patients with Alzheimer disease ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The primary caregivers of patients with Alzheimer disease have a certain degree of caregiving burden, which is negatively correlated with psychological resilience and positively correlated with acceptance. Medical staff should provide professional support to improve the level of psychological resilience and acceptance of caregivers and reduce caregivers' burden.
