The mental health state of the 256 fourth-year medical students of Kunming Medical College was preliminarily analyzed by requiring. The students fill in the inquiry sheets (questionare) in a question-and-answer way. The ages of these 136 male and 120 female students ranged from 19 to 23 years old, and the self-desiged 109 items of the investigation were induced into 8 aspects related to the mental health such as the outlook on life etc. The result showed that these are differences between the mental health state of the senior medical students and the traditional ideas, morality, manners of education etc. Some initial points of view were put toward.

Glucosylceramide synthase(GCS) plays an important role in ceramide metabolism and can block apoptosis signal pathway which is mediated by ceramide. Recently, studies have demonstrated that overex-pression of GCS exists in various muhidrug resistant cancer cell lines and is related to drug resistant pheno-type. A possible connection between GCS and P-gp is also suggested. Moreover,the level of GCS can be down-regulated to increase tumor cells sensitivity by chemical inhibitor and RNA interference. Thus, inhibition of ac-tivity and expression of GCS is a new mechanism of reversing muhidrug resistance.

Protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) is a common cause of children chronic cough,especially in those aged 1 ～ 6 years.It is defined by the presence of persistent wet cough for longer than 4 weeks,but lacks of symptoms or signs of other alternative diagnosis of chronic cough.It shows a normal or near-normal chest radiograph,a intense neutrophilia in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF),and a chronic purulent bronchitis under bronchochoscopy,and usually resolves after two-week course of appropriate oral antibiotic (usually amoxicillin-clavulanatc).So far,PBB hasn't been fully recognized by most pediatricians,and often been unrecognised or misdiagnosed as asthma.In this paper,pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment are reviewed.

Objective To explore the protective effect of Ligustrazine on pulmonary fibrosis caused by hyperoxia in neonatal rats.Met-hods Eighty Sprague-Dawley(SD)clean neonatal rats,which were less than 12 hours old,were enrolled in this study.The neonatal rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:air-exposed control group(group A);air-exposed plus Ligustrazine-treated group(group B);hype-roxia-exposed control group(group C);hyperoxia-exposed plus Ligustrazine-treated group(group D).The neonatal rats of group B and group D were intraperitoneally injected with Ligustrazine[30 mg/(kg?d)] in solution of normal saline(NS),group A and group C were intraperitoneally given the same dose of NS.On 14th day,10 rats of each group were randomly chosen and then killed,the pulmonary pathological changes were observed by HE staining under light microscope.The area percentages of collagen fibers were measured by Masson staining and imaging analysis.The degree of pulmonary fibrosis was evaluated by the area percentages of collagen fibers and hydroxyproline content.The results were analyzed by SPSS 13.0 software.Results On the 14th day of the exposure,the histopathologic examination demonstrated broadened lung interstitium and reduced alveolar quantity and lung fibrosis were developed in group C;Ligustrazine treatment obviously alle-viated the changes of lung histomorphology.The newborn rats in group C had lower body weight compared that of with group A,B(Pa0.05).Conclusion Early use of Ligustrazine can decrease the severity of the pulmonary fibrosis of neonatal rats exposed to hyperoxia.

With more than 20 years of development, Pichia pastoris system has been extensively used both on a lab and industrial scale. This review outlines the progress made on P. pastoris from aspects of protein expression, molecular engineering tools and methods, and biochemical production. This review also provides perspectives on the current challenges and future directions of this important system.

Objective To investigate the effect of tissue adhesive glue in the repairment of eyelid lacerations and surgical incisions in children.Methods Retrospective comparison trial in paediatric ophthalmology department.Children who presented for laceration and surgical incision repair between November 2015 and October 2016 were evaluated.Patients from 11 months old to 12 years old with a total of 458 patients were randomly allocated to either glue (258 cases) or sutures (200 controls) to repair their wound.Cases and controls were similar in age,wound length and width involved.Those with wound seriously infected and longer than 5 cm were excluded.Length of time to perform procedure,pain assessment of procedure by doctor,parent and child and cosmetic outcome in 3 months and 1 year were measured.Results Time taken to repair the wound was faster in the glue group (P<0.01).Doctors and parents and the children themselves rated glue repair as less distressing (P<0.01).Complications (wound dehiscence,infection and corneal damage) were the same in both groups (P>0.05).Cosmetic outcome was better in the glue group in 3 months and 1 year (P<0.05).Conclusion Tissue adhesive glue is faster and easier and less painful than suturing.Tissue adhesive glue has better cosmetic outcomes than suturing when used for the repair of eyelid lacerations and surgical incisions in children.

Objective To study the variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) polymorphism in intron 4 of the endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) gene and its relationship with plasma NO in pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). Method The VNTR polymorphism in intron 4 of the eNOS genes of PIH and healthy control pregnant women were detected by PCR. The plasma level of NO~(3-)/NO~(2-) was measured by spectrophotometer, which was used as the index of NO synthesis.Data were analyzed according to the different type of genotypes and allelic gene frequency. Results The PIH group showed significant higher frequency of VNTR 4a allele and 4a/4b+4a/4a genotype than those of the control (16.00% vs 7.50%,P

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical therapeutic effect of KLT combined with chemotherapy on late can?cers.METHODS:64patients with late cancers were assigned as observation group:receiving KLT+chemotherapy;47patients with late cancers were assigned as control group:receiving routine chemotherapy.RESULTS:In the observation group,the ef?fective rate was48.44%,body weight increase accounted for57.81%,KSP increased85.93%and relief from pain accounted for71.87%;In the control group:the effective rate was34.04%,body weight increase accounted for22.66%,KSD increased48.93%and relief from pain accounted for46.81%.The incidence of ARDs in observation group was obviouly lower than those in control group.CONCLUSION:KLT combined with chemotherapy can raise the therapeut effect on patients with late cancers and improve their life quality.

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the value of nasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy combined image guidance system in treating chronic dacryocystistis. METHOD: Thirteen cases (14 eyes) performed surgeries with nasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy combined image guidance system from January 2010 to August 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Their clinical data were analyzed and the effect of the surgery was evaluated. RESULT: All patients were followed-up for more than half a year. Of all patients,12 eyes were cured, 2 eyes were improved and 0 eyes were noneffective. The total treatment effectiveness was 100%. There was no complication for all cases. CONCLUSION Nasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy combined image guidance system is an effective and reliable treatment method for chronic dacryocystistis, especially for intraoperative location of lacrimal sac and control of operating process.

Eighty-six patients with community-acquired pneumonia who suffered from cerebrovascular sequelae were admitted to hospital from 2005 to 2007.Patients were randomized into ticarcillin sodium/clavulanate potassium group and cefuroxime Sodium group.Sputum culture was performed for each case before and after treatment.Gram-negative bacilli accounted for 74%of infection,and the most common pathogens were klebsiella pneumoniae(26%)and Escherichia coli(14%).The response rates in two groups were 93%and 72%,respectively(χ2=6.54,P＜0.05).Bacteria eradication rates in two groups were 90%and 62%,respectively(χ2=6.00,P＜0.05).Ticarcillin sodium and clavulanate potassium is an effective antibiotic for community-acquired pneumonia in elderly patients with cerebrovascular sequelae.
