BACKGROUND: Personality obstacle is a special type of psychopathy. Since it can reflect personal psychological traits, such as emotion, cognition, behavior mode and the ways one gets along with others, it may lead to meaningful functional impairments and psychological pains if they obviously deviate the normal range, resulting in functional malajustment to society, occupation, social ethics, rules and law. Therefore it deserves further investigation with respect to its criminological significance.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of personality traits, age, educational degree, and marriage state before serving the sentence on criminal behavior of female offenders.DESIGN: A retrospective and control study based on patients.SETTING: Center of psychological sanitary in a hospital of a university.PARTICIPANTS: This study was carried out in the Psychological Sanitary Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical College between April 2004 and May 2004. Totally 223 female offenders who incarcerated in Chongqing Female prison were selected. Inclusion criteria: All participants aged from 18 to 60 years old and received above elementary school education. Exclusion criteria: Those who have definite body ailments or psychopaths. Finally totally 204 valid questionnaires were collected from female offenders who were then divided into violent criminal group( n = 120) and non-violent criminal group ( n = 84).METHODS: Totally 223 female offenders who incarcerated in Chongqing Female Prison were asked to fill personality diagnostic questionnaires (PDQ-R), Esonk' personality questionnaires(EPQ), and symptom self-rating chart(SCL-90). Finally totally 204 effective questionnaires were collected for statistical analysis with SAS software.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison of scores for three questionnaires between the two groups; relationship between general condition(age,educational degree and marriage state before incarceration) with the scores for the three questionnaires.RESULTS: The total score for PDQ-R was above 30 in both the two groups and without significant difference between them, ( P ＞ 0.05); the different results for EPQ between the two group was of statistical significance( P ＞ 0. 05); but the total scores for SCL-90 were markedly different between the two groups,( P ＜ 0.01 ); only "educational degree" was found positively correlated with "histrionic trait"; all items except "psychopathy" were close lined with the general state in EPQ questionnaires( P ＜ 0.05); "impulsion and the number of positive items" in SCL-90 were found related with the general condition( P＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION:All criminals have personality obstacle of different type and different degree, but the difference of personality traits between violent female offenders and non-violent female offenders was of no statistical significance.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that inflammatory cytokines may influence the prognosis after myocardial infarction, and play an important role in the process of cardiac remodeling. The non-hematopoietic effects of
erythropoietin have been confirmed:erythropoietin can reduce the inflammatory reaction through bending with
the erythropoietin on the surface of target cel membrane, thus decreasing the reperfusion injury after myocardial ischemia.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of recombinant human erythropoietin on the inflammatory factor expression during cardiac remodeling in rats with acute myocardial infarction.
METHODS: Sprague Dawley rat models of acute myocardial infarction were established through the ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The rats were divided into five groups:sham operation group was
injected with normal saline;operation control group was injected with normal saline after modeling;SB203580 group was injected with highly selective p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 after modeling;erythropoietin group was injected with
erythropoietin after modeling;the erythropoietin+SB203580 group was injected with erythropoietin+SB203580 mixed solution after modeling. The tail vein blood samples were col ected before modeling, 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after modeling, and then enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the levels of interleukin-1β, interlrukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no significant differences in the levels of interleukin-1β, interlrukin-6 and
tumor necrosis factor-αbetween groups before modeling (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the levels of interleukin-1β, interlrukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-αbetween different time points in the sham operation group (P>0.05), and the levels were highest at 1 day after modeling in the other four groups, and then decreased at 4 weeks after modeling (P<0.05). After modeling, the level of serum cytokines in the operation control group were higher than those in the other four groups, while level of serum cytokines in the sham operation group was lower than that in the other four groups (P<0.05);among the three groups intervened with drugs, level of serum cytokines was lower in the
erythropoietin+SB203580 group (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in the level of serum cytokines between erythropoietin group and SB203580 group (P>0.05). Recombinant human erythropoietin can inhibit the expressions of inflammatory factors (interleukin-1β, interlrukin-6 and the tumor necrosis factor-α) during cardiac
remodeling after rat acute myocardial infarction, and the mechanism of recombinant human erythropoietin for inhibiting the expressions of inflammatory factors may related with the transforming growth factorβ1-TAK1-p38 MAPK signal pathway.
