arotid artery atherosclerosis is closely associated with ischemic stroke.Carotid artery intimamedia thickness is an important indicator of carotid artery atherosclerosis.Magnesium is involved in the in vivo metabolism of a wide variety of processes.Studies have shown that magnesium can decrease carotid intimamedia thickness.This article reviews the relationship between magnesium levels and carotid artery atherosclerosis in different populations.

Disc polyacrylamide gel clectrophorsis was performed to detect water soluble proteins of the bile－cysts of bear, pig, cow and sheep. The bands of electrophorsis were analysed by means of gel clecrophoresis scan. The results showed that different bile－cysts have different bands.Thus, this method can be used to identify the bile－cyst of bear.

Objective: To develop the Chinese mood adjective check list (CMACL) and study the validation of this scale. Methods: The CMACL was filled by 1010 subjects aged 21.0 ? 7.4, 507 males and 464 females (39 lost gender information), which were randomly split into two samples after balancing the gender for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). 232 middle school students divided into five groups according to their grades were engaged in the test-retest study at the first to fourth and sixth weeks. 34 volunteers finished the CMACL and self-rating depression scale (SDS) and 30 college students joined the validation study to test the correlation between the CMACL and state trait anxiety inventory. Results: A four-factor model was found by EFA and confirmed by CFA, which has the following dimensions: Fidget(F)?Happy and excited(HE), Pain and sad(PS),Angry and hate(AH). 30 items were also left in the CMACL after the modification(GFI=0.902,AGFI=0.883,NFI=0.884,TLI=0.931,CFI=0.937,RMSEA=0.046). Reliabilities of the four factors are higher than 0.80. Validation studies showed: (1) SDS total score is significantly positive-correlated with F (P

Objective: to develop the peptic ulcer (PU) symptoms self rating scale (PUSRS) and study the validation of this scale. Methods: The PUSRS was filled by 151 PU patients, 118 males and 30 females (3 lost gender information, aged 38.61?14.99), which were recruited from 18 gastroenterology departments. 30 PU patients were engaged in the test-retest study. 40 PU patients and 30 gastritis patients joined the discriminate validation study. Results: Two factors, pain factor (PF) and dyspepsia factor(DF), were found by exploratory factor analysis. Reliabilities of the two factors are 0.786 (PF) and 0.753(DF). Validation studies showed that PU patients have significantly higher PUSRS total score (P

The information construction and information sharing in Shenzhen public hospitals were investigated with their achievements and problems summarized .Suggestions were put forward for perfecting their information construction, improving their information sharing level, and realizing their regional medical information sharing for the reference in working out their information development program and making health information policies.

Objective To score the fall risk of hospitalized patients with neurologic disease using fall risk scale and observe the changes of fall risk score after this fall risk scale was used. Methods The fall risk scale in hospitalized patients in neurology department was designed. The fall risk of hospitalized patients in neurology department from January 2005 to December 2007 were assessed. Moreover, safety nursing mea-sures were brought into practice to prevent from falling down. The fall risk of hospitalized patients in neurolo-gy department from January 2002 to December 2004 were assessed too. Results Target patients enhanced the sense of preventing from falling down after the fall risk scale was used, and the incidence of falls in pa-tients was significantly decreased. Conclusions To assess the fall risk of hospitalized patients in neurology department and implement safety nursing measures among the target patients may be effective in preventing the patients from falling down.

Objective:To detect tenascin(TN) expressions and its effect in salivary gland tumor. Methods:The expressions of TN was examined in 8 chronic inflammations of salivary glands, 50 benign adenomas and 57 malign adenomas by Envision immunohistochemical technique. Results:Expression level of TN in the malign adenomas was higher than that in benign adenoma and chronic sialadenitis; higher in low differentiation than that in high differentiation and higher in lymphatic metastasis groups than that without lymphatic metastasis groups. No obviously difference was found between soakage inside the blood vessel and nerves and without soakage. Conclusion: TN might regulate cell attachment of epithelial cells in adenomas, and involve in adenomas' histogenesis and development.

Objective: To study the relationship among shame, persona li ty and mental health, and to establish a structural model of them Meth o d: Structural equation modeling was used for the data from 178 college s tudents (including 86 male and 92 female, mean age 21), who were tested with SCL -90, EPQ-R Short Scale (EPQ-RS)and shame scale Result: A theor etical model was established for the relationship of personality, shame and ment al health It wa s also confirmed through model comparison that shame has a part-mediating role b etween personality and mental health
