Methods Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Ⅳ Edition) was used to examine and diagnose the victims in flood district. Results The positive rate of PTSD was 30 9%.The results of logistic regression analysis showed that sex(OR=2 32), age (OR=1 83),style of flood (OR=3 71)and dissatisfaction for sustaining (OR=0 84)were risk factors. Conclusions PTSD is a common mental disorder after flood in our country. Preventive measures should be taken to protect population from PTSD in flood district.

Objective: To observe the oral care effects of finger toothbrush. Methods: The finger toothbrush worn on the index finger was made of silica gel .It was used to brush the in vitro healthy teeth pulled out on the same day and the standard hard plaster tooth model and to brush the in vivo healthy teeth in adults; the bacteria in the finger toothbrush, The dentofacial pluque and the abrasion on the tooth model were tested respectively. Results: After in vivo use the bacteria remained in the finger toothbrush were fewer than those in the commonly used toothbrush(1 683.24?1 355.59 and 2 353.76?1 582.06 respectively). The dentofacial plaque was decreased in the same extent by the two kinds of toothbrushes. The zero rate of abrasion on the tooth model was 93.3%(28/30) by finger toothbrush and 23.3%(14/30) by the commonly used toothbrush. Conclusion: The finger toothbrush worn on finger can remove dentofacial plaque effectively and produce a lower abrasion on tooth.

Objective:To explore the prognosis of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in flood survivors 13 years after they had been diagnosed with PTSD symptoms,and investigate the relationship between their personality traits and the prognosis of PTSD.Method:In this cross-sectional study,the survivors of Dongting Lake flood in 1998-1999 in Hunan in China,who were investigated and screened as PTSD symptoms positive in 2000 were selected as the target population,from which a sample of 200subjects was drawn using amulti-stage random sampling method.The Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Scale Civilian Version (PCL-C) was used to examine and re-screen the participants of PTSD symptoms in order to explore the prognosis of PTSD.Participants whose PCL-C scores were equal to 44 or higher were classified as the PTSD symptoms positive group,while those with PCL-C scores less than 44 were classified as the recovered group.Personality traits were then assessed,using the Revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Short Scale for Chinese (EPQ-RSC),in both the recovered group and the PTSD symptoms positive group.Finally,the multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between the prognosis of PTSD and personality traits.Results:Totally 200 subjects were eligible for this study and completed the questionnaires,but 16 of them had their questionnaires excluded from data analysis because they provided incomplete information.Thus,the response rate was 92.0％.According to the PCL-C's cut-off score,22 participants were still screened as PTSD symptoms positive and were classified as the PTSD symptoms positive group,whereas the other 162 participants were screened as PTSD symptoms negative and were classified as the recovered group.Compared with the recovered group,the EPQ-RSC extroversion scores for the PTSD symptoms positive group were significantly lower [(51.8 ± 10.7) vs.(45.1 ± 13.2),P ＜ 0.05] and their neuroticism scores were significantly higher [(46.5 ± 10.1) vs.(58.3 ± 12.2),P ＜ 0.05].The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed,after adjusting for the variables such as gender and age,that higher neuroticism (OR ＝ 3.63,95％ CI:1.05 -12.54) was a risk factor for the persistent PTSD symptoms in the flood survivors.Conclusions:It suggests that neuroticism is associated with prognosis of PTSD in flood survivors,those with higher neuroticism scores appear to have problems to recover from PTSD.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of young patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), discuss the key points of health education in young patients with AMI, enhance the understanding of patients, and improve the prognosis of AMI in the young patients. Methods: hTe patients were chosen in XiangyaHospital from September 2012 to September 2013. We consulted the medical records, analyzed the clinical characteristics and results of coronary angiogram in young patients (age≤45), and compared with old patients (age≥60). Results: There were 69 young patients with AMI, about 14.2% of all the patients with AMI. Of the 69 young patients, 59 were male (85.5%) and 10 were female (14.5%). Compared with the old patients, the percentages of smoking, drinking, hyperlipidemia and overweight were much higher;the percentages of hypertension and diabetes were much lower in young patients. The coronary angiogram showed that the constituent ratios of insigniifcant disease and single-vessel disease inthe young patients were higher than those in the old patients; the constituent ratios of double-vessel disease and triple-vessel disease in the young patients were lower than those in the old patients. Conclusion: The clinical characteristics of young patients withAMI are different from the old patients.Health education should be conducted in the youth, and new diet and lifestyle should be advocated.

A biomedical entity association evolution network was constructed by mining the implicit associations in PubMed-covered literature, which can help scientific researchers to form new scientific hypotheses, to analyze the topological features of associated network, to study the scientific literature-enriched knowledge structure, associa-tions, development rules, to introduce new visual angles and methods for literature-based knowledge discovery, and to improve the knowledge discovery efficiency.

Objective To investigate the role of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) in partial pathologic process of lung injury in rat models of fat embolism syndrome (FES).Methods A total of 120 healthy male C57BL/6J mice were assigned to control group and FES group which was subgrouped at 4,6,12,24,and 48 hours with 20 mice per group,according to the random number table.Allogeneic perinephric fat was injected to rat caudal veins in FES groups.Lung samples were harvested from each group to examine pathological morphology and lung weight to dry ratio (W/D) to verify the FES models and observe the pathologic process.Expression of AQP4 was detected by western blot and immunohistochemistry.Additional 36 C57BL/6J mice were divided into control group,DMSO group,FES 12-hour group,and AQP4 inhibitor group according to the random number table,with 9 mice per group.Pathologic process of FES-induced lung injury was detected after the inhibition of AQP4.Results Damage to lung tissues was notable in FES group compared with control group.Lung W/D value was 5.06 ± 1.23,5.22 ± 1.58,6.18 ± 1.65,and 5.07 ± 0.31 at 6,12,24,and 48 hours respectively,which was higher than 3.16 ± 1.58 in control group (F =3.62,P ＜ 0.05).Expression of AQP4 was 1.71 ± 1.05 at 12 hours and 1.28 ± 0.68 at 24 hours in FES group,which showed significantly increase when compared with 0.65 ±0.08 in control group (F =4.12,P ＜0.01),whereas at 4 hours (0.76 ± 0.36),6 hours (1.17 ± 0.60),and 48 hours (0.85 ±0.45) in FES group,no statistical difference was observed when compared to control group.W/D value in FES 12-hour group (5.22 ± 1.17),DMSO group (4.96 ±1.66),and AQP4 inhibitor group (3.25 ± 1.19) was higher than 3.03 ± 1.68 in control group (F =3.69,P ＜ 0.05).Meanwhile,there was no statistical difference between DMSO and FES 12-hour groups,but significantly lowered W/D value was observed in AQP4 inhibitor group than in FES 12-hour group.Conclusion AQP4 may be implicated in mitigating lung injury induced by FES.
