The influencing factors of QOL were subjective support and anxiety.Conclusions After liver transplantation,the patients' QOL evidently improves.Life quality of patients over 1 year after operation was better than those within 1 year.Patients' QOL is positively related to subjective support,negatively related to anxiety.

Objective: Our aim was to study whether the cellular bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) profile was associated with the parameters of pulmonary function tests. Methods：Lung function tests and BAL were carried out in 18 untreated, non-smoking patients suffering from sarcoidosis and 18 normal subjects. Results：（1）Lung function tests were normal at rest in patients with sarcoidosis（P＞0.05）, the single breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity decreased (P＜0.05)，and the small airway function decreased too (P＜0.05).（2）The percentage of lymphocytes in BALF of sarcoidosis increased comparing with the normal subjects（P＜0.01），and the ratio of CD+4 to CD+8 in BALF increased significantly in sarcoidosis（P ＜0.05）, furthermore, the increase of both the percentage of lymphocytes and the ratio of CD+4 to CD+8 in BALF of sarcoidosis were well nagatively correlated with the decrease of the percentage of DLCO (r=-0.67, P＜0.01 and r=-0.55, P＜0.05, respectively), the decrease of mid-expiratory flow at 50% of vital capacity (FEF50%) was well correlated with the increase of the percentage of lymphocytes in BALF of sarcoidosis (r=-0.54, P＜0.05). Conclusion：Pulmonary diffusing capacity（DLCO) was significently correlated with BALF lymphocyte phenotype，so was small airway function，and can act as the marker of activity of sarcoidosis.

Objective To study the role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ) in over-exertion induced acute kidney injury (OTIAKI) by observing the changes in ET-1 and AngⅡ contents in plasma and renal tissue and their relationship with OTIAKI in exhausted rats. Methods 40 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group (CN, n=8) and exhaustion group (ES, n=32). The exhaustion group, depending on the recovery time after exhaustion, was further divided into 4 subgroups (8 each): immediate subgroup (ESI), 6h after exhaustion subgroup (ES 6h), 12h after exhaustion subgroup (ES 12h) and 24h after exhaustion subgroup (ES 24h). The animal model of OTIAKI was reproduced by exhausting swimming, while the rats in control group were not forced to swim. The contents of serum urea (Ur) and creatinine (Cr) in each group were serially measured. The renal specimens were observed with a light microscope to study their morphologic changes. Renal cell apoptosis was detected using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay. The contents of ET-1 and AngⅡ in plasma and renal tissue were measured by radio-immunoassay (RIA). The correlation between the content of ET-1 and the levels of serum Ur and Cr were was analyzed by Pearson method, and the correlation between the content of AngⅡ in renal tissue and cell apoptosis was analyzed by Spearman method. Results The levels of serum Ur and Cr were significantly increased in ESI group (P
