Objective To measure the serum levels of endostatin in lung cancer patients in different stages and with histological types, and explore the clinical value of serum level in early diagnosis of lung cancer.Methods ELISA was used to detect the level of serum endostatin in 81 patients with lung cancer (lung cancer group), 23 patients with benign lung disease (benign lung disease group), 20 healthy controls (healthy control group). The serum levels of endostatin were analyzed in lung cancer patients in different stages and with histological types.Results The serum level of endostatin in lung cancer group was (2.53±8.75) ng/mL, significantly higher than that in benign lung disease group (4.63±1.12) ng/mL and healthy control group (4.53±1.24) ng/mL. In lung cancer group, the serum level of endostatin of stage Ⅰsubgroup and Ⅱsubgroup was significantly higher than that of stage Ⅲ subgroup. The differences were statistically significant. There were statistical differences of serum level of endostatin among the lung cancer patients with different histological types.Conclusion Serum endostatin might be used as an indicator of early diagnosis of lung cancer.

AIM: To investigate the regulatory effect of the adenosine triphosphate binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) on apolipoprotein E secretion from human THP1 macrophages.METHODS: Differentiation of THP1 macrophages from monocytes was stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. The macrophages then were incubated with factors which regulate ABCA1 expression. After periods of incubation, apo E secreted in the medium and synthesized in the cell was determined with ELISA, and apo E mRNA espression was detected with Northern blot.RESULTS: An increase in apo E secretion from THP1 macrophages was observed by 8 h of incubation with 8-Br-cAMP, an activator of ABCA1 expression (P

Objective To investigate changes of serum proteins and related enzymes in patients with schizophrenia and its relationship to metabolic syndrome.Methods Five hundred and three inpatients with schizophrenia and 60 healthy volunteer were selected in this study.The demographic information and medical history data of them were recorded and levels of serum proteins and enzymes were measured,and the metabolic syndrome (MS) was diagnosed according to IDF criteria.Results Serum protein contents of schizophrenic patients (total protein (71.14 ±6.13) g/L,albumin (44.56 ±4.24)g/L,globulin(26.35 ±5.04) g/L,apoprotein A(10.97 ± 0.27) g/L,and apoprotein B (0.69 ± 0.25) g/L) were significantly lower than control group (79.96 ± 6.10) g/L,(49.44 ±5.63) g/L,(30.52 ±4.00) g/L,(10.97 ±0.27) g/L,and(0.69 ±0.25)g/L (P＜0.01).Urea nitrogen ((4.36± 1.36) mmol/L) was lower than control group ((5.22 ± 1.31) mmol/L) and C-reaction protein ((3.17 ± 6.58) mg/L) was higher than control group (1.35 ± 1.83) (P ＜ 0.01).Alanine aminotransferase ((24.28 ± 32.76) IU/L),a-L Fucosidase((17.49 ± 4.83) U/L),adenosine dehydrogenase((17.81 ± 5.67) U/L),and creatine kinase isoenzyme((10.50 ±4.92)IU/L) were higher than control group (18.12 ±9.77)IU/L,(15.98 ± 3.58)U/L,(11.75 ±5.48) U/L,and (9.12 ±3.62)IU/L,P＜0.01),but AST isoenzyme ((5.97 ±4.97) U/L)was lower than control group ((7.05 ± 6.72) U/L).Alanine Aminotransferase,alkaline phosphatase,γ-glutamyl transpeptidase,and a-L Fucosidase,AST isoenzyme and cystatin-c of schizophrenic patients with MS were significantly higher than non-MS patients(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion There are significant metabolic disorders of proteins and enzymes in patients with schizophrenia,and abnormal changes of many enzymes are significantly associated with metabolic syndrome.

Objective To investigate changes of family parenting styles after the reforn and opening in China and its influence on mental health.Methods On the base of stratified convenience sampling,a valid sample of 429 were recruited from Wuxi and Hefei city residents:1960s group 103 persons,1970s group 107 persons,1980s group 116 persons,and 1990s group 103 persons.Subjects' childhood parenting styles were surveyed with the family upbringing style questionnaire(FUSQ) and their current mental health status was rated with the psychological symptom inventory-100 (PSI-100).Results (1) Except understanding-blame,and expects-demanding,and mother respect-humiliation and mother warmth-wildness,there were significant age differences on other parenting styles (P＜ 0.05),their scores were gradually increased from 1960s group ((38.29± 6.30)-(44.99± 7.36)) to 1980s group ((40.96±6.05)-(48.53±7.91)),1990s group declined((40.13±7.27)-(46.97±6.61)).(2) Most parenting style dimensions were significantly negatively correlated with symptom total score (r=0.095-0.308) and mental symptom scores (r=0.090-0.330).(3) The family parenting styles had significantly effects on the symptom total score (explained variance of 20.3％) and mental symptom scores (explained variance of 12.4％-21.5％).Conclusion There have been some positive,open and scientific changes on the family parenting styles after the reform and opening in China,childhood family parenting styles have long-term effects on mental health of youth and adult.

Objective To explore family environment,parenting style,and personality of the patients with internalizing and externalizing mental disorders.Methods 137 adolescents with internalizing mental disorder(IMD),63 adolescents with externalizing mental disorder(EMD) and 228 normal subjects (control group) were investigated with Family Environment Scale-Chinese Version (FES-CV),Family Upbringing Style Questionnaire (FUSQ) and the NEO Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI).Results (1) The IMD group scored significantly lower on the cohesion (6.17 ± 2.68),active recreational orientation (3.84 ±2.50),moral-religious emphasis (4.48± 1.65),organization (5.35±2.30),expressiveness (4.60±2.00),achievement orientation (5.31 ± 1.84),and higher on the conflict (4.01 ± 2.38) than control group (P＜ 0.05).The EMD group scored only higher on the conflict (4.01±2.38) than control group (P＜0.05).(2) The all dimensional scores(apart from the parent's expect-demanding) of the IMD group were significantly lower than that of control group on the FUSQ (P＜0.05).The scores on the mother's democracy-authoritarian,parent care-protect,catholic-indulgences,parental-control,and expect-demanding were significantly lower in the EMD group than those in the control group (P＜0.05).(3) Relative to the control group,the IMD group got lower scores on the agreeableness (42.02±5.01),conscientiousness (38.91±8.01),and extraversion (35.17±8.57),and higher score on the neuroticism (40.10±8.55);the EMD group got lower scores on the agreeableness(42.75±5.12),conscientiousness (39.95±8.27) and openness (40.00±6.75).Conclusion Adolescents with mental disorders are living in conflict and discord family environment,feel more negative parenting such as authoritarian,harsh,indulgence,control,and demanding,and show some unhealthy personality such as low agreeableness,low conscientiousness,and high neurotic.

ObjectiveTo investigate prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) and related factors in patients with schizophrenia.MethodsFive hundred and three inpatients with schizophrenia and 60 healthy volunteers were included in this study.The demographic information and medical data of these participants were recorded,and their physiological and biochemical parameters were measured,the MS was diagnosed according to CDand IDF criteria.ResultsThe MS prevalence in patients with schizophrenia was 12.1％ according to CDS criteria and 28.4％ based on IDF standard,significantly higher than control group; the prevalence of MS was higher among female patients ( 15.3％ or 39.8％ ) than male patients ( 10.4％ or 22.4％ ) ; the prevalence of MS was higher among patients aged 40 or over ( 14.3％ or 30.9％ ) than patients aged 40 below (6.4％ or 22.1％ ).Dyslipidaemia (elevated TG and reduced HDL-C),obesity (BMI and waist) and increased blood glucose were the most important risk factors ( OR value ＞ 6.0),increased total cholesterol,high blood pressure,elevated LDL-C,increased uric acid,female,in marriage,and paranoid type were also important risk factors (OR value ＞ 2.0).Stepwise discriminate analysis showed triglyceride (0.569),BMI (0.451 ),HDL-C ( -0.298 ),gender (0.297 ),age (0.294)and LDL-C (0.210) 6 factors had a separate identification role in MS.ConclusionThe prevalence of MS in patients with schizophrenia in significantly higher than that in the general population,females are higher than males in the patients with patients,and older patients are higher than younger patients.Dyslipidemia,obesity and elevated blood glucose are the most important risk factors and predictors of the MS.

Objective To explore the relationships of post- traumatic growth with self- care efficacy and psychological resilience in patients with breast cancer. Methods Totally 303 patients with breast cancer were investigated with Post- traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI), Chinese version of Strategies Used by People to Promote Health (C- SUPPH) and Connor- Davidson Resilience Scale (CD- RISC). Results The total score of PTGI was 63.74±13.00 and the status of post- traumatic growth in breast cancer patients was in middle level, with a highest interpersonal score of 24.49±5.05, a lowest mental change score of 3.84± 1.91. Correlation analysis showed that post- traumatic growth was positively correlated with the level of self- care efficacy and psychological resilience (P<0.01 or 0.05). Regression analysis showed that self- care efficacy and psychological resilience in breast cancer patients could effectively predict the post- traumatic growth with an explanation rate of 36.1%. Conclusions Self- care efficacy and psychological resilience in patients with breast cancer are closely correlated with post- traumatic growth. It is suggested to take appropriate measures to promote post-traumatic growth of the breast cancer patients.

Objective To study the effects of enriched rehabilitative training on the expression of microtu-bule associated protein 2 (MAP-2) and synaptophysin (SYN), and to explore its relationship with brain plasticity. Methods Seventy-seven male Wistar rats weighing 160 to 200 g were randomly divided into an ischemia + enriched rehabilitation group (IE, n=36), an ischemia + standard rehabilitation group(IS, n=8), a sham ischemia + en-riched rehabilitation group (SE, n=21) and a sham ischemia + standard rehabilitation group (SS, n=12). Rats in the ischemia groups had their middle cerebral artery sutured for two hours before reperfusion, while those in the sham groups had a similar operation without occlusion. The enriched groups were given enriched rehabilitative train-ing, while the standard groups were left without any training. Behavioral tests, including the acrobatic performance, were administered once daily 2 days after operation, and SP staining of MAP2 and SYN were used to observe the func-tional recovery and brain plasticity changes among the groups at 1,7, 14, 21 and 28 days after the operations. Re-sults Acrobatic performance times reduced gradually. Bederson scores were significantly better in the IE than in the IS group by the 28th day after the operation). There was no significant difference between IE and IS groups in a foot fault test). The expression of MAP-2 and SYN around the infarct and in the hippocampus decreased significantly at first), then recovered gradually. The expression of MAP-2 and SYN in the IE group was significantly higher than that in the IS group at various time points of observation). Conclusion Enriched rehabilitative training can improve functional recovery and the expression of MAP-2 and SYN after brain ischemia, and the functional enhancement may attribute to the brain plasticity.

Objective To explore the medium effect of social support in process of attachment styles and coping styles on criminal juveniles and adolescents with mood disorders.Methods The survey used in the research included Experiences of Close Relationships Inventory (ECR),Social Support Revalued Scale(SSRS) and Coping Style Questionnaire(CSQ) conducted by three groups:177 criminal juveniles,80 adolescents with mood disorders and 163 normal teenagers.Results Firstly,there were significant differences in the avoidant attachment,attachment anxiety,objective support,subjective support,utilization of support,solving problem,rationalization,self-accusation and retreat among three groups (F=7.902,8.047,59.009,19.248,5.304,7.596,10.652,6.699,11.009;P＜0.05).Secondly,attachment avoidance had significant negative correlation with both utilization of support and help seeking behaviors in the group of mood disorders (r =-0.470,-0.350; P＜ 0.01).Similarly,avoidant attachment had significant negative correlation with both subjective support and utilization of support respectively (r=-0.232,-0.235 ; P＜0.01) in the group of criminal juveniles.The subjective support had significant positive correlation with solving problem (r=0.272,P＜0.01) and as well as the utilization of support with both solving problem and help seeking behaviors (r=0.258,0.424; P＜ 0.01).Attachment anxiety had significant negative correlation with objective support and had significant positive correlation with self-accusation respectively (r=-0.253,0.300;P＜0.01).Finally,utilization of support as a medium completely effect on the process of avoidant attachment and help seeking behaviors in the group of mood disorder and criminal juveniles.Moreover,subjective support and utilization of support as medium both affected a part in the process of avoidant attachment and solving problem for the group of criminal juveniles.Conclusion First,both adolescents with mood disorders and criminal juveniles have unsafe attachment mode,which are lacked social support and easy to take negative coping styles.Yet,the level of attachment avoidance and subjective support of criminal juveniles was found different compared to teenagers with mood disorder.Second,the attachment styles for both adolescents with mood disorders and criminal juveniles have impact on coping styles by the means of social support,but there were slightly different way.
