Objective To know the blood lead level of children in Handan city and the influence factors. Methods In Oct. 2004,211 children aged 2-6 years,living in Handan city for more than one year and without eliminating lead medicine treatment in recent three months,were chosen from a kindergarten. The blood lead was determined by WFC atomic absorption spectrometer. The influence factors were investigated by questionnaire.Results The blood lead level was(89.2?13.6) ?g/L,the prevalence of lead poisoning was 11.85%,no significant difference was seen between boys and girls. As for the blood lead level,the children living in the industrial areas or near traffic road was higher,the children living in the newly decorated house was higher,the children often eat preserved eggs was higher,the children whose parents engaged in the work of lead exposure was higher,the children whose parents smoke heavily at home everyday was higher,the children whose parents had lower education was higher. Conclusion More attention should be paid to prevent and control child lead poisoning in Handan city.

Objective To explore the clinicopathological features of osteofibrous dysplasia (OFD). Methods All the clinicopathological information of 17 cases of OFD were reviewed,including sex,age,course and radiography or histopathology features. The expression of Cytokeratin(CK) was examined by SP. Results Age of the patients ranged from 2-15 years, and the course of the lesion ranged from 1 month to 7 years. The mean age and the mean course was 7.2 years and 2.1 years respectively. Male to female ratio was 1∶1.4. The lesions all occured in tibia, presentating with localized masses. Only one invloved with both tibia and fibula. Radiographs showed there were cystic lesions in the thickened anterior cortex of the tibia with light marginal sclerosis. Histopathology showed a zonal architecture. Abundant osteoblasts in the vicinity of the trabeculae. Only two cases were positive for CK(11.8%). 8 of 10(80%) patients recurred. Conclusion OFD is predominately involved with the tibia in children. The history is long. It has a characteristic histopathologic image and clinical progress. Its a independent entity, not the same of adamantinoma.

Objective To define the correlation between the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and metastasis-related gene nm-23-H 1, and to correlate their espressions with clinical features,radiosensitivity and prognostic variables in exophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), to establish some biological parameters obtained prior to therapy though which we can predict radiosensitivity and outcome.Methods PCNA and nm-23-H 1 expression protein were determined by immunohistochemical technique with formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens from 59 patients with ESCC who had received definitive radical radiation and had been followed up for more than 3 years. The values were assessed by distributions of patients , disease factors, including age,sex,lesion site,legth ,histological grade and prognosis.Results The findings showed that the mean labelling indices of PCNA and nm-23-H 1 were significantly higher in ESCC than in the normal esophageal tissue (P0.05).Conclusions PCNA and nm-23-H 1 indices can be taken as biological endpoints to predicting therapeutic response, local and systemic control of disease.

Objective To evaluate the expression level of cathepsin D protein in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and to determine its relationship with clinic pathological characters. Method Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the expression of cathepsin D in 72 cases of primary NPC and 28 cases of normal nasopharyngal epithelial tissue ( NNET), and the correlation of its expression level with clinicopathologic features and clinical outcomes was evaluated. Results Significant down-regulation of cathepsin D was observed in NPC versus NNET(x2 = 13. 55, P ＜0. 01 ). In addition, cathepsin D down-regulation was significantly correlated with poor histological differentiation ( x2 =41.47, P ＜0. 01 ). Type Ⅰ and Ⅱ (well-moderately differentiated) NPC showed more intense immunoreactivity of cathepsin D compared with type Ⅲ (poorly differentiated) NPC. Cathepsin D up-regulation was significantly correlated with clinical stage, recurrence, and lymph node and distant metastasis (x2 = 13.43,22. 86,21.61,14. 32, P ＜0. 01 ).Tumors with cathepsin D up-regulation tended to have advanced clinical stage, frequent recurrences, and metastasis to lymph node and distant organ. Conclusion The expression of cathepsin D was closely related with the differentiation, clinical stage and pathological grade of NPC. Cathepsin D could be served as an effective differentiation marker for the histopathological grading of NPC and a possible therapy target.

Objective To explore the relation among depression,hopelessness and suicide risk,as well as the mediating effect of hopelessness between depression and suicide risk.Methods 1 381 students were recruited from five junior middle schools in Linyi by using cluster random sampling.They were investigated with General Situation Questionnaire,Scale for Suicide Ideation(SSI),Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) and Beck Depression Iventory (BDI).Results Suicide risk in junior middle school was significant positively correlated with depression and hopelessness (r=0.43 and 0.64 respectively,P＜0.01).Hopelessness partly mediated the relationship between depression and suicide risk (55.8％).Furthermore,hopelessness showed partial mediating effect on the relationship between depression and suicide risk in boys (42.7％) and in 7th Grade students (29.9％),and also complete mediating effect in girls (74.1％) and in 8th Grade students (95.3％).Conclusion The suicide risk in middle school students increase with the increasing of the severity of depression and hopelessness.The hopelessness plays different mediating effects on relation between depression and suicide risk in students with different gender and grade.

Objective To improve health care workers’(HCWs)infection prevention and control consciousness through carrying out catheter-associated urinary tract infection(CAUTI)prevention and control project,and imple-ment prevention and control measures in practical work.Methods Diagnostic criteria of CAUTI issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Prevention and Control/National Healthcare Safety Network were adopted,from October 2013 to September 2014,monitoring was conducted on CAUTI in patients with indwelling urinary catheters for >2 con-secutive days at different types of ICUs in hospitals participated in the project .Results A total of 14 124 CAUTI cases were collected,410 patients developed CAUTI,urinary catheter usage rate was 79.33%(203 114/256 042), incidence of CAUTI was 2.02‰(410/203 114),urine specimen detection rate was 46.52%(6 570 /14 124).The detection rate of urine specimens increased from 37.24% (the fourth quarter of 2013)to 49.76% (the third quarter of 2014).Of prevention measures,the difference in the indication of catheterization was significantly different(P <0.01).Conclusion Through the development of competence building project of healthcare-associated infection pre-vention and control,prevention and control of CAUTI has achieved good intervention effect.

Mycotoxins,secondary metabolites produced by certain fungi,have become one of the most harmful factors that affect the clinical safety of medicinal herbs that probably can be contaminated by harmful toxins generated from fungi in the whole process from planting to clinical use. Therefore,more toxicological research of mycotoxins,a better knowledge of the pathogenesis and quick detection with sensitivity and accuracy will play an important role in targeted therapy of poisoning by mycotoxins and early warning . In this paper,the current status of mycotoxin contamination in medicinal herbs was ana?lyzed,and the progress of toxicological study on common contaminants was reviewed. In view of the high toxicity of toxins,the strategy of ″Prevention First″ is highly desirable. Hence,the development of rapid detection of typical mycotoxins was systematically discussed. The review was intended to provide ref?erence for ensuring clinical safe administration of medicinal herbs and for reducing the risk of mycotoxin poisoning.
