Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease that can be treated and prevented. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a meta-analysis of clinical rehabilitation nursing of COPD patients based on intelligent medical care by constructing a suitable model so as to make the research on clinical nursing of COPD patients more effective. This paper first introduced the intelligent medical system, analyzed the clinical rehabilitation nursing of COPD patients, established the SCNet model suitable for this paper, and then used statistical algorithms to carry out the meta dynamic analysis of the clinical rehabilitation nursing for COPD patients.

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to elucidate the involvement of cPLA2-AA-COX-2 pathway factors and their potential role in lung cancer early diagnosis and prognosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS We selected 80 lung cancer patients as the cancer group, and 30 normal patients were selected as the normal group. Serum contents of COX-2, cPLA2, COX-1, mPGES, PGE2, and PGI2 were measured, and mRNA levels of COX-2, cPLA2, COX-1, and mPGES in serum were determined.
