Objective: To investigate relationships among Cognitive performance,cognitive styles and Neuroticism.Methods: Experimental cognitive tests were administered to 30 Highly and 30 Lowly neurotic individuals under tightened and relaxed cognitive conditions.Results: Highly and Lowly neurotic individuals did not appear any differences in total scores,but significant differences in scores of tightened-relaxed cognitive styles.Highly Neurotic individuals mostly tend to be relaxed cognitive style,and Lowly Neurotic individuals to be tightened cognitive style.Conclusion: Neuroticism does not relate with total scores of cognitive performance under tightened and relaxed cognitive condition,but with tightened-relaxed cognitive styles.

Gastric cancer has high heterogeneity,and the traditional histopathologic classification has a limited significance for clinical work.Along with the dramatic development of molecular detection technology,it may be much more helpful for the treatment and prognosis to use the molecular classifications.Recently,there have been many researches on the molecular classification of gastric cancer,such as Tan type,Lei type,clonality type,The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) type,Asian Cancer Research Group (ACRG) type,and so on.All of these molecular classification methods have respective advantages and disadvantages.

Clinicopathological parameters are important to predict the prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC),they mainly include TNM stage related indexes of the tumor,tumor length,vessel and nerve invasion, tumor budding, peripheral blood cells, etc. To predict the prognosis of ESCC patients accurately is the prerequisite of precise treatment and the key to improve the patients survival rate and survival quality.

Objective:To study the influence of metformin and paclitaxel in the proliferation and apoptosis of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells in vitro, and to clarify the synergistic effect of metformin and paclitaxel. Methods:The ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells were divided into blank control group, different concentrations (0.01, 0.50, 1.00, 5.00, 10.00mmol·L-1) of metformin groups and combined treatment groups(metformin combined with paclitaxel with different concentrations).The inhibitory rates of proliferation of SKOV3 cells after treated with different concentrations of metformin were detected by MTT method.The apoptotic rates of SKOV3 cells after treated with different concentrations of metformin were measured by flow cytometry.The inhibitory rates of proliferation of SKOV3 cells after treated with metformin and paclitaxel were determined by MTT method.Results:The MTT results showed that the inhibitory rates of proliferation of SKOV3 cells in different concentrations of metformin groups were increased in concentration-and timedependent manner;there were significant differences compared with blank control group (P<0.05).The flow cytometry results showed that the apoptotic rates of SKOV3 cells in different concentrations of metformin groups were increased;compared with control group, with the increasing of concentrations of metformin, the apoptotic rates of SKOV3 cells in experimental groups 48 h after treatment were increased significantly (P<0.05);the percentages of SKOV3 cells in G0/G1 phase were decreased with the increasing of metformin concentrations(P<0.05) and the percentages of SKOV3 cells in G2/M phase were increased(P<0.05).The MTT results showed that the inhibitory rate of proliferation of SKOV3 cells in 1.00 mmol·L-1 metformin+paclitaxel group was higher than that in 0.50 mmol·L-1 metformin+paclitaxel group was higher than that in 0.50 mmol·L-1 metformin+paclitaxel group(P<0.05),and the inhibitory rates of proliferation of SKOV3 cells in combined treatment groups were higher than those in paclitaxel alone groups(P<0.05).Conclusion:Metformin inhibits the proliferation of ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells through the induction of apoptosis.Metformin can enhance the cell proliferation inhibition of paclitaxel on ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells.The combination of metformin and paclitaxel has a synergistic reaction on SKOV3 cells.

Objective To identify endoscopic and the endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) features of esophageal tuberculosis.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 39 cases (mean age 50.7) of esophageal tuberculosis diagnosed by endoscopy and EUS in past 6 years.Results A total of 29 lesions were found in the middle part of esophagus,and 5 in upper and lower part,respectively.The lesions under endoscope demonstrated as protrusion in 30 and ulceration in 9.EUS found esophageal wall thickness in 9 cases,intra-wall occupying lesion in 17,mediastinum occupying lesions involving esophagus in 13,and calcified lymph nodes in mediastinum which was integrated with esophageal outer wall in 28 cases.Conclusion The esophageal tuberculosis occurs mainly in the middle part of the esophagus,and appears as protrusion and ulceration under endoscopy.EUS can find occupying lesions intra-or out of the esophageal wall,and full layer thickness,which can accompany calcified lymph nodes in meidastinum,and can be the basis of diagnosis.

Objective To understand the ecological developmental characteristics of rats in the epidemic areas of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) so as to provide a basis for effective control of HFRS.Methods Based on the China National Disease Surveillance Reporting and Management System,data of HFRS cases from 2010 to 2014 were collected and analyzed by retrospective analysis.Meanwhile surveillance data of rats were collected and the capture rates in different seasons,genders and districts were also analyzed.Results Totally 51,92,129,85 and 71 cases of HFRS were reported from 2010 to 2014.Most HFRS cases occurred from October to November which were 43,59,78,37 and 37,respectively.Totally 2902 rats were captured from 2010 to 2014.The five-year average capture rate was 4.87％ (2902/59610).The highest capture rate was 6.94％ (910/13107) in the third quarter and the outdoor capture rate (5.80％,1681/28987) was higher than that of indoor(3.99％,1221/30623,x2 =324.35,P ＜ 0.05).More male rats were captured than female rats and the overall proportion was 62.82％ (348/554) and 37.18％ (206/554),respectively.The outdoor rats were mainly Apodemus agrarius (556),Cricetulus triton (432),Rattus noruegicus (217),Mus musculus (211) and Sorex araneus (139),and the indoor rats were mainly Mus musculus (514),Rattus noruegicus (469) and Sorex araneus (181).The black rat disappeared and White-bellied rat appeared.Conclusions The rat density keeps higher all year round and the type of rats has become increasingly complex.Mixed living of indoor and outdoor rats increased the infection probability of different types of Hantavirus,which has an immediate impact on the spreading pattern of HFRS.

Objective To investigate the value of color Doppler ultrasonography in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of breast sclerosing adenosis (SA).Methods Preoperative sonography in 32 SA,99 invasive ductal carcinoma(IDC),51 ductal carcinoma in situ(DCIS) and 64 fibroadenoma(FA) confirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed.Results The average age of SA group was younger than IDC and DCIS groups',but older than FA group's (P ＜0.05).The focal maximum diameter of SA group was the smallest among all(P ＜0.05).All the SA sonograms showed solid hypoechoic lesions,with spiculate margin was less than IDC group and larger than DCIS and FA groups (P ＜0.05).Similar ultrasonic characteristics,such as irregular shape,unclear border,acoustic halos were seen in SA and DCIS groups (P ＞0.05),while IDC group showed the highest rate and FA group had the least(P ＜0.05).SA masses' uneven internal echo,calcification,posterior acoustic attenuation was higher than FA group(P ＜0.05),but less than IDC and DCIS groups(P ＞0.05).Meanwhile,A/T ratios(≥0.7) were higher than DCIS and FA groups,but less than IDC group(P ＞0.05).In addition,SA group had a similar detection rate of the internal blood flow with FA group(P ＞0.05),but less than the IDC and DCIS groups(P ＜0.05).Conelusions Ultrasonography has a significant clinical value in diagnosis and differential breast sclerosing adenosis.

Objective To investigate the value of ultrasonic diagnosis on cervical lymph nodes metastasis regions and characteristics in thyroid carcinoma.Methods Ultrasound image of 290 patients with thyroid carcinoma were analyzed restrospectively.The cervical lymph node metastasis regions diagnosed by ultrasonography were compared with histopathologic results,and the ultrasound characteristics of metastasis lymph nodes were assessed.Results Among 290 patients,167 cases with cervical lymph node metastasis were comfirmed by pathology (57.6％),and 185 cases were detected by pre-operative ultrasound (63.8％).The region of thyroid carcinoma lymph node metastasis comfirmed by histopathology was most commonly the central region (54.1％),followed by the lateral neck (20.7％).The diagnostic rate of central region lymph node metastatic by pre-operative ultrasound was only 31.7％,which was sharply lower than that of lateral region (57.6％,P ＜0.05).However,the diagnostic specificity (72.8 ％) was apparently higher than lateral region (35.9％,P ＜0.05).The ultrasonic characteristics of metastatic cervical lymph nodes included rounded shape,absence of echogenic hilus,presence of calcitication,hyperechogenicity and cystic change.Conclusions The cervical central region is the predominant region for thyroid carcinoma lymph node metastasis,and ultrasound diagnosis on central region lymph node metastasis possesses positive specificity but negative sensitivity.Improving ultrasound diagnostic accuracy on central lymph nodes metastasis would be of important clinical significance.

This study established a population pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics model of clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndrome. Fifty-nine patients were enrolled. The plasma concentration of clopidogrel active metabolite and vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein platelet reactivity index (VASP-PRI) were selected as the pharmacokinetics index and the pharmacodynamics index, respectively. The covariates including demographic characteristics, laboratory indexes, combined medication, complications and genetic polymorphisms of related enzymes were screened for their influence on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics parameters. Population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics data analysis was performed using NONMEM software. The general linear model and the indirectly effect model-turnover model for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis were selected as the basic model, respectively. The population typical values of K12, CL/F, V/F, EC50, K(in), and E(max) were 0.259 h(-1), 179 L x h(-1), 632 L, 1.57 ng x mL(-1), 4.29 and 0.664, respectively. CYP2C19 was the covariate in the final pharmacokinetic model, and the model was to design a prior dosage regimen.
