Objective To assess the violence risk levels of the community patients with severe mental illness and Analyze the associated factors.Methods A working group composed of psychiatrists,community police,FIMITIC staff,community physicians,neighborhood or village committee members was established.501 community patients with severe mental illness were evaluated with Violence Risk Assessment Scale by working group.While the data of the general demograpbic,medical history and violence history was investigated.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the factors associated with violence.Results In 501 patients,risk levels of grade 0:124cases (24.8％),grade 1:165 cases (32.9％),grade 2:118 cases (23.5％),grade 3:59 cases (11.8％),grade 4:28 cases (5.6％) and grade 5:7 cases (1.4％).Logistic regression analysis showed four significant risk factors,which were schizophrenia (OR 4.139),no taking medicine (OR 6.883),unstable condition (OR 234.534) the number of previous violence(OR 3.457) (P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression equation:Logit (severe violence) =-8.511 + 1.420 (schizophrenia) + 1.929 (no taking medicine) + 5.458 (unstable condition) +1.241 (the number of previous violence).Conclusion The results of violence risk assessment and risk factors have directive significance for management of community patients with severe mental illness.

Objective To investigate the relationship of alcohol exposure during pregnancy and non-compaction cardiomyopathy (NCC) in offspring mice.Methods Pregnant mice of ED3.5-ED18.5 were given 56％ alcohol by gavage at a dose of 5 mL/kg.The ED19.5 mice were sacrificed,and the heart of the fetal mice was harvested.Transmission electron microscopy (filaments,mitochondria and sarcoplasmic reticulum) and HE staining were used to verify the changes of structure and ultrastructure of the obtained myocardial tissues.Echocardiography was used to evaluate the cardiac function and ventricular myometrium of the offspring mice after growing up.Results Alcohol exposure during pregnancy caused the disorganized and dissolved myofilaments in the fetal mice.Some offspring mice (31.25％,5/16) had NCC.The ratio of non-compacted myocardium to compact myocardium at the end of systole (N/C) was 2.49 ± 0.6 in the offspring mice of the alcohol exposure group,significantly higher than that in the control offspring mice (0.62 ± 0.23,t =10.397,P =0.000).The volume of heart was decreased in the offspring mice of the alcohol exposure group while the left ventricule was enlarged.Echocardiography showed cardiac dysfunction and thickened ventricular septal/left ventricular posterior walls in the grown-up mice of the exposure group.Conclusion Large dose of alcohol exposure during pregnancy cause trabeculations and non-compaction in ventricular myocardium,and it might be one of causers for NCC in the offspring.

Astrocytes play a major role in the reactive processes in response to neuronal injuries in the brain. Excessive gliosis is detrimental and can contribute to neuronal damage. CD81 (TAPA), a member of the tetraspanin family of proteins, is upregulated by astrocytes after traumatic injury to the rat central nervous system (CNS). To further understand the role of CD81 in the inhibition of astrocytes, we analyzed the effects of a CD81 antibody, on cultured rat astrocytes. The results indicated that the effect worked in a dose-dependent manner with certain dosage range. It, however, reached a dosage equilibrium at a high dosage. Furthermore, anti-CD81 antibody remarkably inhibited the proliferation of astrocytes after incubation with astrocytes for different periods of time and the effect presented a time-dependent fashion. However, anti-CD81 antibody substantially inhibited the proliferation of astrocytes at low density and middle density but slightly inhibited the proliferation of astrocytes at high density, suggesting that the effect was positively correlated with the proliferative ability of astrocytes. Finally, the cell cycle of astrocytes exposured to anti-CD81 antibody was arrested in S phase at the initial stage and at G(0)/G(1) phase over time. These findings indicated that CD81 exert significant inhibitory effect, dose-dependently and time-dependently, on the proliferation of astrocytes and the effect is positively correlated with the proliferative capability of astrocytes.

Objective To investigate the effect of anti-CD81(antibodys against CD81) on the proliferation of astrocytes. Methods Purified astrocytes from newborn rats' cerebral cortex were divided into 6 groups and added with anti-CD81 different concentrations(0,0.1,0.5,1,5,10?mg/L).The activity of astrocytes was tested by methyl thiazolyl terazolium(MTT).Three significative groups were chosen based on MTT result and added with anti-CD81 of different concentrations(0,0.5,5mg/L).After administration for 24 hours,the cell cycle of the astrocytes was measured by flow cytometer.The corresponding data were analyzed with SPSS statistical software. Results 1.By MTT,the average optical density(AOD) values of astrocytes were reduced after administration with anti-CD81 of different concentrations for 24 hours,that is,the number of astrocytes was reduced,which indicated anti-CD81 inhibited the proliferation of astrocytes and the effect showed a dose-dependent pattern.2.By cell cycle analysis,a progressive dose-dependent decrease was found in the index of cells in G-0/G-1 phase and an increase in S phase.Such as,the index of cells in G-0/G-1 phase,was 82.73 in 0,is 82.16 in 0.5?mg/L,was 78.58 in 5?mg/L.Conclusion Anti-CD81 inhibits the proliferation of astrocytes and the number of astrocytes is reduced.Further more,the index of cells decreases in G-0/G-1 phase and increases in phase S after administration with anti-CD81.This study shows that anti-CD81 doesn't restrain the cells from G-1 phase to S phase but the cells are arrested in S phase.

BACKGROUND: At present, the researches on steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head are mostly concentrated on the treatment of formed necrosis. And there are fewer reports on how to prevent the ostoenecrosis of the femoral head in the course of steroid therapy.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of preventive medication on femoral head structure and blood flow in steroid-induced osteonecrosis.DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment.SETTING: Department of Pharmacology, Department of Anatomy, Medical College of Shaoguan University; Department of Nuclear Medicine, Guangdong Province Yuebei People's Hospital.MATERIALS: Thirty adult New Zealand rabbits of either sex, whose body mass was (2.5±0.5) kg.METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Central Laboratory,Medical College of Shaoguan University, the Department of Electron Microscope, the Northern Campus of Guangzhou, Sun Yat-sen University, and the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Guangdong Province Yuebei People's Hospital from April to July 2005. ①Thirty rabbits were divided randomly into 3 groups with 10 rabbits in each group: control group with intramuscular injection of 1 mL/kg normal saline twice a week and meanwhile, intragastric administration of normal saline(10 mL/d), steroid group with intramuscular injection of dexamethasone sodium phosphate(1 mL/kg) twice a week and meanwhile, intragastric administration of normal saline(10 mL/d),treatment group with intramuscular injection of dexamethasone sodium phosphate(1 mL/kg) twice a week and meanwhile, intragastric administration ofXuesaitong(25 mg/kg), Zhibituo(350 mg/kg) and alendronate(5 mg/kg)daily for 8 weeks. ②After 1 week of drug withdrawal, the blood flow of femoral head was measured in all the rabbits with radioactive microsphere technique, and the histological changes were observed under light microscope and electron microscope.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Blood flow of the femoral head in each group.②Histological and morphological changes, and ultrastructure of the femoral head cartilage in each group.RESULTS: ①The blood flow in the treatment group was more than that in the steroid group[(0.261±0.042), (0.197±0.053) mL/(min·g), q=6.10,P ＜ 0.01]. Compared with the control group[(0.243±0.039) mL/(min ·g)],the difference was not significant. ②The number of empty bone lacunae in the treatment group was fewer significantly than that in the steroid group [(15.22±5.49), (24.78±7.87) pieces, q=6.35, P ＜ 0.01]. However, there was no difference between the treatment group and control gruop [(10.38±3.78)pieces].③In the treatment group, the bone cells were normal, the endoplasmic reticula were abundant and the cellular nuclei were of normal shape.In the steroid group, the bone cells contracted in volume, the pyknosis occurred, the chromatin gathered to the edge and the bone lacuna enlarged.CONCLUSION: While using steroid hormone for long, using Xuesaitong,Zhibituo and alendronate may elevate the blood flow of femoral head, improve the tissue structure of bone and prevent or lighten steroid-induced necrosis of femoral head.
