Objective To explore the correlations between the social support and the quality of life to them who live in Yunnan sudden unexplained death ward,and provide a scientific basis for taking effective measures to improve the people' s quality of life in the ward.Methods Using the cross-sectional household survey to collect the information of the inhabitants on social support and quality of life by the Social Support Scale,and the WHOQOL-brief Scale.Results The total score of social support,scores of subjective support,objective support in Yunnan sudden death ward ((40.85±8.34),(9.58±3.58),(23.86±4.87)) were lower than those of the control group in the same dimension ((41.82±7.12),(10.47±3.26),(24.51±4.68)) (all P＜0.05).But the score of social support utility in Yunnan sudden death ward (7.41±2.67)was no significant difference between the two groups (6.84±2.56,P＞0.05).After using multiple linear regression to control other confounding factors,such as house-hold income per capita,scores of social support,subjective support,objective support and social support utility were positively correlated with the score of quality of life in Yunnan sudden death ward (the correlation coefficient between the scores of social support and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.30,0.11,0.29,0.28,0.36;the correlation coefficient between the scores of objective support and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.15,0.05,0.13,0.14,0.19;the correlation coefficient between the scores of subjective social support and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.18,0.06,0.21,0.23; the correlation coefficient between the scores of social support utility and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.11,0.05,0.10,0.09,0.11 (all P＜0.05).Conclusions The people who live in Yunnan sudden death ward get less social support and social support utility is low,which cause the worse quality of their life.To make this situation better,more social support is necessary to enhance the utilization.

BACKGROUND:At present, there is no effective treatment strategy for cavernous transformation of portal vein and basic research about its etiology is rarely reported.
OBJECTIVE:To establish the models of cavernous transformation of portal vein, detect the expression of matrix metal oproteinase-2,-9 (MMP-2, MMP-9) and tissue inhibitors 1, 2 of metal oproteinase (TIMP-1, TIMP-2) in rat portal vein and peripheral tissue, and discuss the roles in the process of peripheral angiogenesis.
METHODS:Eighty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups. The rat models of cavernous transformation of portal vein were established with partial coarctation in portal vein by using 21 G blunt pinhead. Control group was normal rats without operation (samples were harvested after portal vein radiography). Model group and sham operation group were divided into three groups respectively according to different time points, namely 2, 4 and 6 weeks after operation. Rats of each group were randomly chosen at week 2, 4 and 6 after operation to observe the formation of col ateral circulation of portal vein and its peripheral tissues by performing portal vein radiography. CD31 was detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, TIMP-1, TIMP-2 mRNA and protein in portal vein and peripheral tissue were determined by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Peripheral angiogenesis of model group was increased obviously by portal vein radiography and immunohistochemistry. RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry results demonstrated that, compared with the control group and sham operation group, the expression of MMP-2 mRNA and protein in model group were significantly increased at weeks 2, 4, and 6 (P<0.01, P<0.05), while expression of MMP-9 mRNA and protein at week 2 in model group were significantly higher than that in the control group and sham operation group. Expression of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in model group showed no significant difference compared with control group and sham operation group at weeks 2, 4, and 6 (P>0.05). Ratio of MMP-2/TIMP-2 of model group was significantly higher than that of control group and sham operation group (P<0.05) at week 2. the rat models of cavernous transformation of portal vein have low mortality, high success rate and are stable. Upregulation of the expression of MMP-2, MMP-9 and the disbanlance of the ratio of MMP-2/TIMP-2 might contribute to the peripheral angiogenesis in rats with cavernous transformation of portal vein.

Objective To compare the effects of two skin sampling methods (negative pressure suction blister and skin shaving) on the physical status of autologous epidermal keratinocytes transplanted to patients with vitiligo. Methods Skin samples were obtained from the normal skin of 32 patients with stable vitiligo by suction blister under negative pressure and skin shaving alone or in combination. Immunohistochemistry was performed to examine the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and caspase-3 in these samples.Skin tissues resected from 15 normal human subjects served as the control. Results There was an expression of PCNA and caspase-3 at different degrees in all the skin tissues obtained by the two sampling methods from the 32 patients. Most PCNA-positive cells were focally distributed at the basal layer in epidermis obtained from suction blisters, and a few PCNA-positive cells were observed in the middle and lower part of the prickle cell layer of epidermis from shaved skin. There was a significant difference in the percentage of PCNA-positive cells between the epidermis from suction blisters and shaved skin as well as between the epidermis from suction blisters and normal control skin (x2 = 10.99, 14.08, both P < 0.05), but not between the epidermis from shaved skin and normal control skin (x2 = 1.31, P > 0.05). The expression of caspase-3 was predominantly located in the cytoplasm of keratinocytes in the basal layer as well as middle and lower part of prick cell layer, and no difference was observed in the percentage of caspase-3-expressing keratinocytes between the epidermis from shaved skin, suction blisters and normal control skin (x2 = 1.41, 2.89, 1.91, all P > 0.05). Conclusions The proliferation activity of epidermal cells seems important to the survival of grafted skin, and compared to the suction blister technique, skin shaving appears to have less influence on the proliferation of keratinocytes.
