Objective To explore the effect of psychological resilience and mood on mental health of leftbehind children.Methods Positive and Negative Affect schedule (PANAS),the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescent (RSCA) and Mental Health Scale of Middle School Student (MSSMHS) were administrated to 796 left-behind children.Results ①Positive/negative emotions could significantly predict psychological resilience (β=0.875,P＜0.01 ; β=-0.713,P＜0.01).②Psychological resilience had significantly negatively forecast mental health (β=-0.759,P＜0.01).③The relationship between negative affect and mental health was partially mediated by psychological resilience (P＜0.01).The relationship between positive affect and mental health was completely mediated by psychological resilience.Conclusion Psychological resilience plays an important role in the relationship between positive/negative emotions and mental health.Positive affect can improve mental health of left-behind children through psychological resilience.

BACKGROUND: Researches on vitodynamics present that percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) can strengthen hardness and intension of single osteoporosis vertebral body after injection of bone cement; however, the infused volume and site of bone cement for maintaining mechanical stability of vertebral body should be further studied.OBJECTIVE: A numerical calculation method on finite element models (FEM) for biomechanical analysis has been developed, while a boundary condition describing the relative L1 -L2 displacement is imposed on the FEM to account for three-dimensional physiological states.DESIGN: Non-randomized control study.SEITING: Beijing Neurosurgical Institute.MATERIALS: One female patient aged 54 years with compressibility fracture at lumbar vertebrae L1-L2 induced by osteoporosis was diagnosed with CT examination, and the patient was told the fact. Based on CT scanning before and after PVP, 90 serial sections with the thickness of 1 mm were obtained and the size of each pixei was 0.33 mm.METHODS: The experiment was carried out Beijing Neurosurgery Institute from October 2005 to June 2006. ①Establishment of three-dimensional FEM: Integrating the anatomical structure from the spine CT and MRI image of a patient, a novel three-dimensional geometric model of lumbar functional spinal units (FSUs) has been built. Meanwhile, 90 serial sections were obtained to exchange data of CT sections and divide imagings. Based on the geometric model, two kinds of three-dimensional FEM of L1-L2 segments for preoperative and postoperative vertebrae were created. ② Model evaluation: The lcad of (500 N, 1 000 N, 1 500 N, 2 000 N, 2 500 N) axial compression were applied to the superior surface of the model in the form of a uniformly concentrated lcad over all L1 superior surface nodes respectively. We could observe the stress distribution of L1-L2 segment by applying the load and clue on the high stress concentration region as the most likely areas fracture.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Changes of displacement, stress and strain distributions of FEM at L1-L2 segment of lumbar vertebrae under various loads; ② Effect of increase of bone cement volume on displacement, stress and strain distribution.RESULTS: ① The increase in displacement, stress and strain of FE model with the increase of loading in the postoperarive cases. The tendency was approximately linear which also illustrates the spine have flexible biomechanical characteristics. The region was a common place for injures due to loading. The magnitude of stress in the intervertebral disc depended on the proportion of load applied to the superior surface of the motion segment. The heavier the lcad was, the stronger the stress was. ② With the increase of stress on intervertebral disc, the increasing volume of bone cement could induce transfusion of load of nearby vertebral body.CONCLUSION: Building three-dimensional FEM of L1-L2 segments for preoperative and postoperative PVP can explain three-dimensional physiological status of vertebral body based on calculating relative shift of L1-L2 segment of lumbar vertebrae. Meanwhile, simulative calculation can clearly express distribution of stain and stress and preoperative and postoperative deformity of vertebral body.

Results Six ultrasonic indexes were finally entering the Logistic regression model. They were elasticity score, shape,internal echo, RI, enhancement of posterior acoustic alteration and the converging pattern in the coronal plane. The area under the ROC curve was 0. 996. The percentage correct of prediction was 97.35 %. Conclusions The multivariate analysis model of binary Logistic regression can describe and analyze the process of differential diagnosis of malignant and benign solid breast tumors by ultrasonography and can select out the valuable indexes of differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the changing of endothelial progenitor cells and nitric oxide in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension secondary to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Method Mononuclear cells from 20 healthy persons (the control group, n = 20) , COPD patients without PAH (COPD non-PAH group, n =30) and patients with PAH secondary to COPD (COPD and PAH group, n=30) were investigated. Total mononuclear cells were isolated from peripheral blood by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation. EPC number and migration were assayed by colony forming unit-EPCs (CFU-EPCs) assay and modified Boyden chamber assay , respectively. EPC adhesion assay was performed by replanting those on fibronectin-coated dishes , then adherent cells were counted. The concentration of NO was measured with method of nitrate reductase.Result The numbers of CFU and migration, adhesion activity of circulating EPCs in COPD[ (21.9±3. 9)CFU-EPC] and PAH group[ (14. 2 ±3. 5)CFU-EPC] were significantly lower than that in non-COPD group and COPD non-PAH group [ ( 24.9 ±4.1) CFU-EPC ]. It was also observed that a strong negative correlation between the levels of PAH and the numbers of CFU and adhesion, migration activity of circulating EPCs. The NO level in the PAH group [ (43. 6 ±4. 8)ng/ml] was significantly lower than that in control group [ ( 67. 17±4.9 ) ng/ml ] ( P < 0.01). The NO level was positively correlated with number and migration ability of EPCs( r =0. 77,0.71, P <0.01) , but not correlated with adhesion ability.Conclusion The number of CFU and migratory, adhesive activity of EPC in patients withPAH secondary to COPD was significantly decreased. These changes may be associated with low level of plasma NO.
