Objective:To study the job stress factors of drivers.Methods:Cluster analysis.Results:The job stress factors of drivers can be divided into six clusters,which are social support,negative state,job requiring,job control,stress level,and job busyness and monotony.Conclusion:Comprehensive measures should be used to reduce the job stress.

Objective To investigate the resilience of primary caregivers of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and explore the influencing factors. Methods General information questionnaire and Cornor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC) were used in the survey among 173 cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy as well as their primary caregivers. Results The score of resilience of primary caregivers was (70.76 ±13.34), at middle or above level. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that caregivers'resilience was affected by gender, age, family income and religious belief (all P<0.05). Conclusion The resilience among primary caregivers of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy is at a relatively high level. Clinically, we should pay more attention to female and young patients with lower family income and no religious beliefs.

By using traditional Chinese medicine inheritance support system to analyze the dominant experience and recessive principles of the prescriptions for stranguria in the dictionary of traditional Chinese medicine prescription (DCMP), we aim to define the medication pattern and rule and to acquire new prescriptions. In dominant experience analysis, we were able to find 22 drugs used over 50 times, including drugs of clearing heat, diuresis and relieving stranguria which are the most used and drugs of clearing heat, cooling blood, benefiting Qi and nourishing Yin. In addition, drugs of activating Qi and Xue, eliminating phlegm and removing toxic are often used, including 34 herb pairs and 5 combinations of three-taste drugs are used more than 35 times. These results fully reflect the composition principles and compatibility characteristic of prescriptions for treating stranguria in DCMP. Thirteen new prescriptions by way of recessive principle excavating were acquired. These new prescriptions might be suitable to clinical treatments of variable syndromes. This article provides an useful clue to research and produce new drugs.

Sonic hedgehog(Shh) is a member of the hedgehog family in vertebrate. The Shh signaling pathway is mainly composed of a secreted glycoprotein, named Shh, two transmembrane proteins (Ptch and Smo) and the downstream transcription factor family Glis. It plays a vital role in the embryo development, especially in the neuronal system. Recent study have demonstrated that the Shh pathway is closely associated with the tumorigenesis of various tumors. Glioma, the most common malignant brain tumor of humans, is characterized by the rapid proliferation, infiltrative growth and high rate of relapse, and it is one of the brain tumors with poorest prognosis. Abnormal activation of multiple signaling pathways has been known to enhance the proliferation ability of glioma cells. Moreover, glioma is composed of various tumor cells and the glioma stem cells were endowed with the ability of self-renewal and unlimited proliferation, which plays a key role in the tumorigenesis, progress and relapse. Evidence has been found that Shh signaling pathway is closely assoicated with tumorigenesis of glioma. Herein we review the current knowledge on the components of Shh signaling pathway and its role in the tumorigenesis of glioma and glioma stem cells.

Objective:To investigate influence of living locations on the personality characteristics of the only child and none-only children in an air force academy.Methods:1921 cadets were tested by the Chinese version of the MBTI-G.Results:Scores of the only child cadets from cities on the Sensing-Intuition and Thinking-Feeling dimensions were higher than those of none-only children group from cities and those of the only child group from countries.The scores of them on the SN scale were 93.0?18.5,90.4?17.6 and 90.1?17.7(t=2.25,P=0.025;t=1.99,P= 0.048).The scores of them on the TF scale were 94.6?22.6,89.1?21.1 and 88.4?21.0(t=4.02,P

Ever from FDA approved the Rituxan in 1997,an Anti-CD-20 chimeric antibody,there have been more than 20 antibodies approved and they have got into more than 56 countries.About half approvied antibodies are curing kinds of cancers and seven of them have got a excellent sale targets to be "Blockbuster Drug".As the cell culture technology improving,the large scale cell expression titer comes from 1g/L to 5g/L.At the same time,the culture scale is coming form 12,000L to 15,000L,even 20000L and it can run several bioreactors at the same time.All these are make the improvement of the antibody purification.The new edition of media,system,chromatography technology and filtration technology can product the protein to several tens kilogram antibody per cycle and tons per year,although the productivity is only several kilograms per cycle many years ago.Also the new combined technology makes a two-step chromatography production protocol come into been.This will highly improve the antibody productivity and save the investment cost.

Objective To study the role of aminophylline in COPD patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anesthesia.Methods A total of 60 COPD patients who received the upper abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were randomly assigned as regular treatment group (control,n=30) and aminophylline group (aminophylline,n=30).The aminophylline group was intravenously injected aminophylline (2mg/kg) after intubation,and the same volume of saline was injected for the control group.The respiratory mechanics,serum cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-8 (IL-8) and interleukin-10(IL-10),recovery time and adverse cardiovascular events were measured.Results The general conditions,including gender,age,weight,smoking status,lung function,GOLD standard,surgical site,operation time and anesthetic time had no statistically significant differences between the two groups.During general anesthesia,aminophylline decreased the peak airway pressure(15 minutes,t=9.220,P=0.047),the plate airway pressure(15 minutes,t=5.906,P=0.025) and the airway resistance(15 minutes,t=10.438,P=0.04).Aminophylline increased the respiratory compliance(15 minutes,t=-7.431,P=0.001).Aminophylline attenuated the increase of inflammatory cytokines,such as TNF-α(8 hours,t=6.374,P=0.000),IL-8(8 hours,t=7.716,P=0.000) and hsCRP(8 hours,t=6.665,P=0.000).Aminophylline shortened the time to spontaneous ventilation(t=3.439,P=0.001),opening eyes(t=3.516,P=0.001),limb movement(t=6.249,P=0.000) and extubation (t=3.159,P=0.003).Administration of aminophylline had no obvious adverse effects on blood pressure and heart rate.Conclusion Administration of aminophylline for COPD patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anesthesia can improve respiratory mechanics,downregulate inflammatory cytokines,accelerate recovery after general anesthesia and possess no obvious adverse cardiovascular effects,which is worthy of popularization.

Objective To analyze the physical examination data of 557 faculty and staff working in one uni-versity,in order to provide a basis for control and prevent chronic disease in the same group people .Methods Five physical examination items including blood pressure ,blood sugar,cholesterin,triglyceride and blood uric acid were chosen and analyzed .Results The abnormal rate of high blood pressure was 20.83%,and that in males was obviously higher than the females(χ2 =26.82,P<0.05).The abnormal rate of high blood sugar was 9.69%,and that in males was obviously higher than females (χ2 =19.76,P<0.05).The abnormal rate of high blood uric acid was 16.52%, and that in males was apparently higher than the females (χ2 =10.89,P <0.05).The abnormal rate of high triglyceride was 28.55%,and that in males was obviously higher than females (χ2 =53.92,P<0.05).The abnormal rate of high cholesterin was 42.55%,there was no significant difference in gender (χ2 =0.00,P>0.05).Conclusion The health situation of faculties and staff is not optimistical .It is urgent to strengthen health education in these people .
