【摘要】 目的 检测B细胞成熟抗原（BCMA）mRNA在系统性红斑狼疮（SLE）患者外周血单个核细胞（PBMC）的表达水平，探讨BCMA在SLE发病中的意义。 方法 纳入2006年1-11月收治的36例SLE患者，同期17例健康志愿者作为对照组，采用半定量RT-PCR法检测外周血单个核细胞中BCMA mRNA的表达，并与SLE疾病活动指数（SLEDAI）进行相关性分析。 结果 SLE患者组BCMA mRNA表达水平（0.598±0.230）均明显高于正常对照组（0.411±0.309）（Plt;0.05）。SLE患者BCMA mRNA表达水平与SLEDAI评分无相关性（P=0.590）。 结论 SLE患者BCMA mRNA表达水平的增高，可能在SLE的发病机制中具有一定的作用。【Abstract】 Objective To detect the mRNA expression of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and explore the role of BCMA in the pathogenesis of SLE. Methods From January 2006 to November 2006 the expression of BCMA mRNA in PBMC of 36 patients with SLE and 17 normal controls were measured by half-quantitative RT-PCR. The linear correlation between the expression of BCMA mRNA and SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI) was assessed. Results The level of BCMA mRNA (0.598±0.230) in PBMC significantly increased in SLE patients compared with that in the normal controls (0.411±0.309) (Plt;0.05). The expression of BCMA mRNA in SLE patients showed no correlation with SLEDAI score (P=0.590). Conclusion The results suggest that the expression of BCMA mRNA might play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE.
Stroke has the characteristics of high incidence rate, high mortality rate and high disability rate. Most patients may have some motor dysfunction after stroke, which greatly affects the normal life of patients. As a common sequela after stroke, foot drop seriously affects the walking gait of patients, limits the activities of patients, and reduces their quality of life. In recent years, repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) has been used more and more in the rehabilitation of various diseases. Because rPMS is noninvasive, affordable and effective, it is accepted by many patients. This article reviews the research progress of rPMS for foot drop after stroke.

ConclusionThe endothelial cells from human peripheral blood and islet of rat co-transplan-tation can obviously improve the survival and function of transplanted islet of nude mice.
ObjectiveTo study the contents of CD44 that shared exon variant 5 (CD44v5) in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) of patients with gastric carcinoma and the expression of CD44v5 in tumor tissue and their clinical significance. MethodsThe contents of CD44v5 were determined by FlowCytometry in PBL of 31 patients with gastric carcinoma before surgery and 10 normal controls. Tissue expression of CD44v5 in 33 patients with gastric carcinoma was investigated by immunohistochemistry. ResultsThe contents of CD44v5 were significantly higher in PBL of patients with gastric carcinoma before surgery than those of controls (P＜0.01). Nodepositive gastric cancer patients showed significantly elevated contents of CD44v5 in PBL in comparison with nodenegative gastric cancer (P＜0.01）. Significant correlations were noted between the contents of CD44v5 in PBL of patients with gastric carcinoma before surgery and tumor size, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis and different the Vnion International Centre Le Cancer (VICC) stages of tumor (P＜0.05). The expression of CD44v5 could be detected in 69.7% of tumor tissue,but was not detected in adjacent normal gastric mucosa. Significant correlations were noted between CD44v5 expression and depth of invasion,and lymph node metastasis.The presence of CD44v5 protein was correlated with the lymph node involvement rate. Conclusion CD44v5 in PBL or tumor tissue may be useful as a metastatic marker. It may be of important clinical value in the diagnosis of metastasis and judgement of development for the patients with gastric cancer.
ObjectiveTo evaluate tip location of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) by using the carina as evaluation mark, so as to provide clinical references for blinding manipulation of PICC. MethodsA retrospective analysis about the effects of tip location of PICC by using the carina as evaluation mark on inpatients with malignant tumour was conducted in tumour centre of the West China Hospital from March 2013 to April 2014. Chest X radiography was applied to evaluate the tip location of PICC. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software (version 19.0) and the outcomes were presented by frequency and percentage. ResultsA total of 612 cases of blinding manipulation of PICC were evaluated, of which, 502 (82%) were located in the central venous and 110 (18%) were located in the noncentral venous. The numbers of those with the catheter tips located in the non-central venous were 38 in the right atrium, 33 in the internal jugular vein, 24 in the innominate vein, 8 in the axillary vein, and 7 in the subclavian vein, respectively. ConclusionThe effects of blinding manipulation of peripherally-inserted central catheter by using the carina as evaluation mark are relatively good. But it still needs to be improved.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical effects of continuous quality improvement (CQI) in the care of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 40 patients who received PICC treatment in our hospital between January and December 2011, and then we found out the main problems of PICC catheter care, analyzed the related factors for complications of PICC, and formulated corresponding nursing countermeasures. PICC receivers between January and December 2012 were regarded as controls. Then, we compared the complication incidence and satisfaction of patients between the two groups before and after the implementation of CQI. ResultsAfter the implementation of CQI, complication incidence was significantly lower (P<0.05). The satisfaction degree of patients toward caring rose to 87.8%, which was statistically significant (P<0.05). ConclusionThe implementation of CQI is beneficial to reduce complications of PICC treatment, and patients'satisfaction rate is also significantly increased.
ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnostic value and safety of electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy combined with radial endobronchial ultrasound in peripheral pulmonary nodules.MethodsThe clinical imaging, surgical and pathological data of 60 patients with 76 peripheral pulmonary nodules who underwent electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy combined with radial endobronchial ultrasound guided biopsy in the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, The Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from June 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The diagnosis rate and complications were analyzed and summarized. The 76 pulmonary nodules were divided into a small pulmonary nodules group (10 nodules, diameter≤1 cm) and a pulmonary nodules group (1 cm<diameter≤3 cm, 66 nodules) according to diameter. The two groups were compared in terms of operation and diagnosis rate.ResultsPulmonary nodules diameter was 1.8±0.6 cm, operation time 29.8±8.6 min, navigation 2.9±0.9 times, biopsy 9.5±1.9 pieces. In the 76 pulmonary nodules, 55 were confirmed by pathology, with a total diagnosis rate of 72.4%, including 32 of malignant lesions and 23 of benign lesions. In the 76 pulmonary nodules, 59 had grade 0 hemorrhage, 17 had grade 1 hemorrhage, and none had grade 2 or more serious hemorrhage. Eight patients developed pneumothorax after surgery, and the degree of lung compression was less than 30%, which was improved after symptomatic treatment with oxygen inhalation. The operation time in the small pulmonary nodules group was significantly longer than that in the pulmonary nodules group, and there was no significant difference in diagnosis rate or complications between the two groups.ConclusionElectromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy combined with radial endobronchial ultrasound is a safe and effective method for the diagnosis of periphery pulmonary nodules, and it also has a high diagnostic rate for small pulmonary nodules (≤1 cm), which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
