Results Among the current services provided by these three hospitals, those of public health and primary healthcare nature in hospital A account for 50% each; those in hospital B account for 70% and 30% respectively; those in hospital C account for 60% and 40% respectively. Recommendable services provided in these hospitals include universal coverage of medical files, management of infectious diseases, public health emergency management, and immunization. Conclusion Township hospitals as the center of the 3-tier rural health service network, deserve a repositioning of their functionality to fit the health needs of residents at large.

Objective To investigate the effect of apatinib on the proliferation,apoptosis and migration of pancreatic cancer cell line AsPC-1 in vitro.Methods Pancreatic cancer AsPC-1 cells were treated by apatinib in different concentrations.Cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured by CCK-8 and flow cytometry,and the effect of apatinib on cell migration ability was observed by wound healing assay.Results In control and 10,20,30,40 and 50umol/L apatinib treatment group,the inhibitory rates of AsPC-1 cells were 0,(1.45 ±0.68)％,(16.92±0.70)％,(23.84±0.84)％,(34.35±1.55)％ and (37.33± 0.81) ％,respectively.Cell proliferation was obviously inhibited by apatinib as the concentration increased,and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).In control and 20,40 umol/L apatinib treatment group,the apoptotic rates were (9.44 ± 0.18) ％,(16.62 ± 0.19) ％ and (25.42 ± 0.41) ％,respectively.Number of apoptotic cells was obviously increased by apatinib as the concentration increased,and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).In control and 20,40 umol/L apatinib treatment group,the migration ability was (29.5 ± 0.7) ％,(17.4 ± 0.9) ％ and (6.6 ± 0.5) ％,which was greatly decreased as the concentration increased,and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Apatinib can effectively inhibit the proliferation and migration of pancreatic cancer AsPC-1 cells and induce apoptosis.

Objective To understand use of blood pressure-lowering medications and to identify factors contributing to their compliance among hypertensive patients at a community health-care service center under Huairou County Hospital, Beijing to improve community management for hypertensive therapy.Methods Medical records of hypertensive patients who visited Qiaozizhen community health-care service center in Huairou county, Beijing during June 2008 to May 2009 were analyzed and 849 of them were interviewed using a pre-tested, structured questionnaire with most closed ended questions included to understand their use of anti-hypertensive drugs and its related factors. Results In 849 hypertensive patients under community management, 78.92% percent (670/849) took anti-hypertensive drugs, 72.54%percent (486/670) in good compliance with drug treatment, and 29. 63 percent (144/486) under guidance of their general practitioners or visited secondary-care hospitals or above, 62. 14 percent (302/486) took drugs by themselves and 8. 23 percent (40/486) took drugs following advice by their relatives or other hypertensive patients. The most common used drugs in 503 hypertensive patients who could remember names of the drugs included reserpine compound tablets, reserpine and triamterene compound tablets (302/503, 60. 04% ) and calcium-channel blockers ( 181/503,35.98% ). Overall, blood pressure was under control in ( 289/849,34. 04% ) percent of those with community management, and( 189/486, 38. 89% ) percent of them kept in a good compliance, significantly higher than that in those with poor compliance (48/179,26. 82% ) (P =0. 0032). Results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that drug compliance associated mainly with complications of hypertension ( OR of 4. 423 and 95% CI of ORs 2. 141 - 9. 137). Conclusions Drug compliance among hypertensive patients is still poor in rural Beijing, most with reserpine compound tablets.It is necessary to pay more attention to health education among hypertensive patients, particularly about when to start drug-taking and how to take drugs in a scientific way-regularly and complying with physicians'prescription.

Objective To study any functional changes in the trigeminal nociceptive system in cases of migraine with aura (MWA) using painful heat-evoked potentials (CHEPs),and to explore the value of CHEP in evaluating the trigeminal small nerve fibers of patients with MWA.Methods Sixty patients with MWA were recruited as the MWA group,and 60 healthy persons were selected as a normal control group.Thermal stimulation at 51 ℃ was applied to the skin above the patients' right and left eyebrows.The N wave latencies and N-P amplitudes of the CHEPs were recorded at the vertex (Cz) of the head.The intensity of the stimulus was graded using a visual analogue scale (VAS).Results In the control group the simulation produced no significant differences in the N550 or P750 latencies or in the N-P amplitudes.In the MWA group no significant differences were observed when the headache side was stimulated,but the N550 and P750 latencies were both significantly shorter than those of the control group and the N-P amplitude was significantly greater than that of the control group.The average VAS score on both sides in the patients with migraine was significantly higher than those of the control group.However,there was no significant difference in average VAS scores between the headache and non-headache sides of the patients with migraine.Conclusions CHEP is a reliable method for detecting any pathological changes in the trigeminal small nerve sensory pathway.Increased cutaneous allodynia in acute migraine attacks is detectable using CHEPs.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression of PTEN and VEGF gene in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and their clinical significance. METHODS The expression of PTEN and VEGF gene were examined by using immunohistochemical S-P staining method in 10 cases of normal tissues, 20 cases of para-tumor tissues and 60 cases of LSCC. RESULTS The positive rates of PTEN in normal tissues, para-tumor tissues and LSCC were 100.0 %, 95.0 %, and 70.0 % respectively (P＜0.05),and VEGF protein showed positive expression of 20.0 %,50.0 %,73.3% in normal, para-tumor and LSCC tissues with statistical significance(P＜0.05), In LSCC, the expression of PTEN and VEGF was positively correlated with TNM stage, differentiation of tumor, cervical and distant metastasis of lymph node, 3-year survive rate of patients(P＜0.05),No significant association was observed in expression of PTEN and VEGF with tumor location,patient's age and sex(P＞0.05). Spearman correlation analysis revealed that PTEN was negatively correlated with VEGF expression(?=-0.3948, P=0.0018). CONCLUSION The aberrant expression of PTEN and VEGF may play a role in occurrence, progression and metastasis of LSCC.
