Objective To explore the mediating effect of social support between the self-efficiency and the abstaining motivation in the drug addicts. Methods The two hundreds drug addicts were evaluated using the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS),the General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) and the Motivation Questionnaire of Abstaning from Drugs (MQAD), the mediating effect of social support was tested with multivariate stepwise regression analysis. Results The total scores of the SSRS,GSES and MQAD was (35.68 ± 5.81), (26.48 ± 4.84), (129.35 ± 11.49) respectively. The result of the bivariate correlation analysis showed that there were positive correlation among the social support, the self-efficiency and the motivation for abstaining from drugs(P<0.01). The values of the mediating effect of the social support was 0.2010, and its ratios to the total effect was 0.486 7, the ratio of the direct effect to the total effect was 0.513 3. Conclusions The Social support had significantly mediating role between the self-efficiency and motivation for abstaining from drugs in drug addicts. Improvement of the social support in drug addicts can promote their motivation for abstaining from drugs and abstaining confidence so that, it could make drug addicts to keep away from narcotics.

To evaluate the efficacy and accuracy of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for myopia and myopic astigmatism .SVS APEX excimer laser with a wave length of 193 nm(Sumit Technology Inc. Waltham, Mass, USA) was applied. 316 myopic eyes of 168 patients were treated with PRK between September, 1996 and October, 1997, and 260 eyes (84%) of 150 patients were followed for more than three months, including male 68(116 eyes, 40.1%) and female 82(144 eyes, 59.9%). The preoperative spherical equivalent refractive errors ranged from -1.25D to -10.00 (mean -4.67±1.63D), and astigmatism ranged from 0 to -2.00D (means -0.33±0.45D). We divided the patients into two groups according to the referaction: group A (from -1.25D to -5.90D) and group B(from -6.00 to -10.00D). The number of eyes in the two groups were 220 and 40 respectively. In group A, on the 10th day, 68.9% has the uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) equal to or one line better or lower than the preoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA). In 1,3,6 and 12 months, 90%, 96%, 95% and 94% had the UCVA equal to or one line better or lower than the preoperative BCVA respectively. In group B, on the 10 th day, in 1,3,6 and 12 months, UCVA equal to or one line better or lower than the preoperative BCVA occurred in 35.9%, 83%, 87%, 86%, and 84% of the cases respectively. Most of the haze showed 0.5～1 grades except 3 eyes with the haze of 2 grade in 3 or 6 months and it changed to 1 and 0.5 grade respectively within one year. In 10 days and 1,3,6,12 months postoperatively, the corneal haze was noted in 32.9%, 84.8%, 62.8%,9.0% and 2.8% of the treated eyes respectively. We found that 193 nm excimer laser PRK was a predictable, safe, stable, and effective refractive surgery for correcting myopia up to -10.00D in Chinese patients, and the effect was better in myopia lower than -6.00D.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and accuracy of photorefractive keratectomy(PRK) for myopia and myopic astigmatism.Methods SVS APEX PLUS excimer laser with a wave length of 193nm(Summit Technology Inc.Waltham,Mass,USA) was applied.Three hundred and sixteen myopic eyes of 168 patients were treated with PRK from Suptember 1996 to October 1997,and 260 eyes(84%) of 150 patients were followed-up for more than three month,including male 68(116 eyes,40.1%) and female 82(144 eyes,59.9%).The preoperative spherical equivalent refractive errors ranged from -1.25D to -10.00D(mean -4.67D± 1.63D),and astigmatism ranged from 0 to -2.00D(mean -0.33D±0.45D). The patients were divided into two groups according to the refraction:group A(from -1.25D to -5.90D) and group B(from -6.00D to -10.00D).The number of eyes in the two groups were 220 and 40,respectively.Results In group A,After 10 days,68.9% had the uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA) equal to or one line better or lower than the preoperative best corrected visual acuity(BCVA).After 1 ,3,6 and 12 months,90%,96%,95% and 94% had the UCVA equal to or one line better or lower than the preoperative BCVA,respectively.In group B,after 10 days,1,3,6 and 12 months,UCVA equal to or one line better or lower than the preoperative BCVA occurred in 35.9%,83.0%,87.0%,86.0% and 84.0% of the patients respectively. Most of the haze showed 0.5～1 grades except 3 eyes with the haze of 2 grade at 3 or 6 months and it changed to l and 0.5 grade respectively at one year.after 10 days and 1,3,6,12 months postoperatively,the corneal haze was noted in 32.9%,84.8%,62.8%,9.0%and 2.8% of the treated eyes respectively.Conclusion We found that the 193nm excimer laser PRK is a predictable,safe,stable,and effective refractive surgery for correcting myopia up to-10.00D in Chinese patients,and the effect is better in myopia lower than -6.00D.
