Objective To investigate the influence of high-motivated affect background on the holistic face processing and its neural mechanism.Methods Totally 26 subjects were instructed to perform composite-face process under the priming condition of three emotional pictures (food,neutral and fear).Results (1)Behavioral studies showed a significant interaction between emotion type and face combination(F(2,50) =5.37,P=0.008).Composite-face effect was observed in neutral emotional condition due to the fact that the recognition accuracy of the misaligned face ((90.21 ± 11.20)%) was significantly higher than that of the aligned face((84.83 ± 11.20) %,t (25) =3.95,P=0.001).However,the composite-face effect disappeared under the condition of high-motivated emotion.That is,there was no significant difference in the recognition accuracy of the misaligned faces ((87.88± 10.28)%) and aligned faces ((85.12± 8.81)%,t(25)=1.93,P=0.065) under the condition of high-motivated negative emotion.Under the condition of high-motivated positive emotion,there was also no significant difference in the recognition accuracy between the misaligned faces ((87.92±11.00)%) and aligned faces((88.33±8.89)%,t(z5)=0.263,P=0.795).(2) According to the results of ERP,P3 components showed significant interaction between emotion type and face combination form(F(2,50) =3.23,P=0.048).Under the neutral emotional condition,the P3 amplitude of aligned faces ((3.46 ± 1.26) μV) was significantly higher than that of misaligned faces ((2.82 ± 1.43)μV,F (1,25)=5.28,P=0.03).In the case of high-motivated negative condition,there was no significant difference in P3amplitude between aligned faces ((3.21 ± 1.16) μV) and misaligned faces ((3.07 ± 1.22) μV,F (1,25) =0.53,P=0.476).The P3 amplitude of aligned faces((3.33±1.20) μV) and misaligned faces((3.42±1.40) μV) were also not significantly different under the condition of high-motivated positive affect (F(1,25)=0.23,P=0.638).Conclusion The study shows a high correlation between face processing and emotional processing.Additionally,the emotional motivation has a stronger influence on face processing.Regardless of the emotional valence,high-motivated intensity affect can cause local attention bias and reduce the holistic processing level of the face,which is mainly manifested in the later cognitive processing stage.

Objective:To observe the efficacy of anti-sensitive moisturizing tolerance-extreme cream combined with isotretinoin in the treatment of severe acne.Methods:Fifty patients with severe acne were selected in the Dermatology Clinic of the Third People's Hospital of Hangzhou from November 2018 to July 2019. They were randomly divided into the experimental group of 25 cases and the control group of 25 cases. The experimental group was treated with anti-sensitive moisturizing tolerance-extreme cream combined with isotretinoin orally. The control group was treated with isotretinoin orally alone. Before and after treatment for 56 days, lactate score, skin cuticle hydration (SCH), transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and skin physiological indexes were measured.Results:After 56 days of treatment, the TEWL and SCH of the control group were 15.75±3.31 and 10.13±3.62, the TEWL and SCH of the experimental group were 12.17±3.61 and 28.07±3.17, respectively; the difference was statistically significant ( T was 3.610 and 12.398, P was 0.002 and 0.000, respectively). The volume and depth of cyst nodule, scar depression, skin roughness, absolute value and area of erythema in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( T was 2.280, 1.676, 2.332, 1.508, 4.813 and 3.637; P was 0.031, 0.011, 0.027, 0.040, 0.000 and 0.001, respectively). Conclusions:Anti-sensitive moisturizing tolerance-extreme cream combined with isotretinoin has a good effect on severe acne and it can reduce the barrier damage and other adverse reactions.

Objective:To analyze the psychological contract satisfaction of contracted residents and its impact on their behavioral intentions under the guidance of incomplete contract theory, for reference in improving the effectiveness of contracted family doctor services.Methods:1 100 contracted residents from nine townships/streets in Shandong province were selected as subjects according to stratified random sampling from September 2019 to June 2020, and a questionnaire survey on the level of satisfaction of contracted residents′ psychological contracts(24 items) and assessment of behavior intentions(9 items) was conducted, and the model of the effect of contracted residents′ psychological contracts on behavior intentions was established and analyzed. The correlation was validated by Pearson test and the structural equation method was used for verifying the model.Results:998 valid questionnaires were recovered. The psychological contract satisfaction score of the contracted residents was 3.45±0.56 and the behavioral intention was 2.81±0.29. Both transactional and relational psychological contracts were correlated with all dimensions of behavioral intention( P<0.01). Concerning the impacts of residents′ psychological contracts on behavioral intentions, the effect coefficients of transactional psychological contracts on loyalty intention, voice intention, exit intention and neglect intention were 0.33, 0.24, -0.25 and -0.49 respectively, with an indirect effect on neglect intention; the effect coefficients of relational psychological contracts on loyalty intention, voice intention, exit intention and neglect intention were 0.26, 0.10, -0.14 and -0.50 respectively, with an indirect effect on advice intention and neglect intention. Conclusions:Residents′ psychological contract has yet not been effectively satisfied. Satisfying and improving the residents′ psychological contract can directly enhance their loyalty intention and reduce their exit intention, indirectly influencing the voice and neglect intentions. In order to enhance the effectiveness of family doctor contracted services and improve the healthcare experience of contracted residents, it is suggested that the relevant departments should actively take the following measures, including carrying out a survey on the psychological contract of contracted residents, building a provincial-city-county-township collaborative linkage platform, and so on.
