Objective We aimed to understand the awareness of knowledge related to tuberculosis(TB) prevention and treat ment among diabetes mellitus(DM) patients in Urumqi city,their attitudes towards TB patients,treatment behavior and routes of obtaining knowledge,which will provide scientific basis for further health education and promotion.Methods A questionnaire-based investigation was conducted among DM patients who visited out patient clinics or those who were hospitalized from July to December in 2015.Results 599 DM patients were investigated.the general awareness rate among them was 51.13%,and all awareness rate was 4.17%.In all 7-item core knowledge related to TB prevention and treatment,the awareness of TB symptoms,specialized TB clinics,free examination and free treatment policy were the lowest,which were 32.78%,40.40%,36.68% and 47.65%.Multi variate analysis indicted that ethnic group and educational level were associated factors of awareness rate.6 t.77% of patients have tendency to discriminate TB patients.81.83% of patients were willing to learn more knowledge about TB treatment and prevention,and the main route they hoped to learn were social media,literature and specialized publicity materials.Conclusion Awareness of knowledge related to TB prevention and treatment is low in DM patients in Urumqi,particuiarly those of minority ethnic group and lower education.Future health education in those at-risk groups should be enhanced.

This study was aimed to investigate the effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compound "Ji-Sui-Kang (JSK)" on the differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs).Drug serum of JSK was prepared.The primary NSCs were isolated and cultured.NSCs were identified.Fetal bovine serum (FBS) was used to induce differentiation of NSCs.Different doses of drug serum of JSK was added to intervene the differentiation.There were the high-,medium-,and low-dose group.The blank control group was also set.The β Ⅲ-tubulin and GFAP were used to detect the differentiation of NSCs.And then,it was compared with the control group without drug serum.Positive cells ofβ m-tubulin and GFAP in different visual fields were counted.And the percentage of positive cells in the total number of cells was calculated.Fluorescence microscope was used to conduct quantitative fluorescence experiments.The results showed that the cultured neurospheres were expressed of Nestin protein.The percentage ofβⅢ-tubulin positive cells in the high-,medium-and low-dose group of drug serum of JSK was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05).The percentage of GFAP positive cells in the high-,medium-and low-dose groups of drug serum of JSK was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).And the high-dose group of drug serum of JSK was statistically significant compared with the middle-and low-dose group of drug serum of JSK (P<0.01).It was concluded that TCM compound JSK promoted thedifferentiation of NSCs intoβⅢ-tubulin positive cells.It provided a basis for treatment of SCI with TCM.

Objective To analyze the status, trends and issues of professionals in rehabilitation institutions in China, and provide policy recommendations on rehabilitation professional development.Methods The data from database and statistical bulletin of CDPF has been analyzed using descriptive analysis and deviation analysis.Results The quantity of professionals of rehabilitation institutions increased 24,900 (12.62%) in 2016. Average professionals per institution had been decreased from 33.89 in 2012 to 28.33 in 2016. In regard to the structure of distribution, the rehabilitation professionals at provincial level had been decreased 21.95% in 2015 than that of in 2012. Both training programs and the number of trainees from rehabilitation institutions had decreased.Conclusion There were big gap between services provision and needs of professionals. The distribution of professionals at provincial, city and county level was under optimization. The on-job training for rehabilitation professionals should be improved. It is recommendated to develop national plan for professionals development to meet the needs of rehabilitation services, advance the on-job training for professionals, develop the higher education of rehabilitation and improve attractiveness of rehabilitation to retain and recruit more professionals.
