ObjectiveTo explore the influence of narcissism of mothers of middle school students on maternal consciousness and their rearing patterns,and to provide theoretical support for family education.Methods361 pairs middle school students and their mothers were sampled randomly and tested by middle school students' mother maternal consciousness scale and the narcissistic personality Inventory for the mothers,and the mother's subscale of EMBU for the students respectively.The data were analyzed by ANOVA,product-moment correlation and path analysis.Results 1 ) Overt narcissism had significant differences among different levels of income(F=6.501,P<0.001 ); 2)overt narcissism was correlated positively with emotional warmth and understanding of mother and mother' s over-interference,over-protection ( r =0.121,0.126,P < 0.05 ) ; covert narcissism was correlated negatively with maternal consciousness and emotional warmth and understanding of mother,and positively with over-protection,refusal and deny,and severe punishment; 3 )narcissism of mothers not only would influence their rearing patterns through maternal consciousness indirectly( β=0.319,P=0.000),but would influence that directly ( covert narcissism:β =0.281,P =0.000 ; overt narcissism:β =- 0.278,P =0.000) ; and overt narcissism had positive effect,while covert narcissism had negative effect.ConclusionNarcissism of mothers of middle school students influences maternal consciousness and rearing patterns,and effect of overt narcissism is positive,and that of covert narcissism is negative.So it is important to perfect mother's character for ameliorating their rearing pattern.
10.Exploring the effects of Chinese medicine in improving uterine endometrial blood flow for increasing the successful rate of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer.
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2011;9(12):1301-6
Endometrial blood flow is directly related to endometrial receptivity thereby affecting in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) outcomes. In recent years a growing number of studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can play a role to improve endometrial blood flow and embryo transfer. Studies have confirmed that formulas based on reinforcing kidney and activating blood can promote the formation of uterine endometrial blood vessels by adjusting expressions of a variety of vessel growth factors, and regulating nitric oxide level for inhibition of vascular smooth muscle contraction of the uterus. Treatments based on differentiation of syndromes are key to the theory of TCM. Differentiation of syndromes should be combined with biomedical disease diagnosis. It is also necessary to further clarify other endometrial blood flow disorders using TCM diagnostic methods. In these cases, drugs for reinforcing kidney and activating blood are relevant, but other medicines for smoothing liver qi and nourishing blood, as well as tonifying the spleen and generating blood may also be effective. Future clinical studies should focus on the observation of different types of TCM syndromes and the research on compatibility ratio and dose-dependent relationship of Chinese medicines. Acupuncture has been used during IVF-ET for more than 10 years. Electro-acupuncture can control the expansion of the uterine arteries by inhibiting the sympathetic nerves. However, acupuncture has not been proved to regulate endometrial arteries. To sum up, TCM can be applied to improve endometrial blood flow so as to increase birth rates in IVF-ET. The combination of Chinese and Western medicines and acupuncture application will increase their combined effect, thereby obtaining greater clinical benefits.
