ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship among social support,coping style and mental health on university librarians.Methods421 librarians were assessed with the symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90),social support rating scale (SSRS) and simplified coping style questionnaire (SCSQ) in 2005. ResultsSome factor of SCL-90 negatively correlated with utility percentage of social support(P<0.05), and positively correlated with passive coping style(P<0.05). Except utility percentage,the other three factors of social support showed significant difference among different academic titles (P<0.05), and it was significant different (P<0.05) on passive coping factor among them. The score of social support improved with ages except for utility percentage (P<0.05).On positive coping factor but not negative, there were significant difference among different age groups(P<0.05). ConclusionThe social support and coping style obviously correlate with the mental health of university librarians.

Membrane fusion is essential for all life activities of eukaryotes and the fusion process requires the interaction of different vesicular transporters,which are highly conserved in eukaryotes,to coordinate specifically and facilitate the fusion of different biofilms. Vesicle associated membrane protein 8(VAMP8)mainly locates in vesicular as well as lysosomal membranes,and plays a vital role in the fusion of many different biofilms. This paper focused on the molecular structure,transcriptional regulation,post-translational modification and biological function of VAMP8 as well as the research progress on its correlation with human diseases,so as to provide new ideas for the treatment of related diseases and the development of effective therapeutics targeting VAMP8.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of sitagliptin combined with metformin in the treatment of sulfonylurea-deficient elderly patients with diabetes mellitus.Methods Sixty patients with diabetes mellitus were enrolled in our hospital from January 2013 to December 2016.The patients were divided into observation group(30 cases) and control group(30 cases) according to the random number method.The patients in the observation group were treated with sitagliptin and metformin.The patients in the control group were treated with gemcitabine, and the clinical treatment effect, fasting blood glucose, postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting C peptide and postprandial 2hC peptide Level of statistical comparison.Results The clinical effect of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group.Before and after treatment, the fasting blood glucose, 2h postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, fasting C peptide and postprandial 2hC peptide level were not significantly different After fasting blood glucose, 2h postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin levels were significantly lower than before treatment, after treatment of fasting C peptide and postprandial 2hC peptide levels were significantly higher than before treatment.Conclusion The clinical efficacy of serotretine combined with metformin in the treatment of elderly patients with diabetes mellitus is similar to that of Yuxing, and the combination is more convenient and more suitable for clinical treatment.It is worthy to be popularized and applied in clinical practice.

Objective: Hitherto there has been no report on the changes of microvessels and the expression of angiogenic factors after photodynamic therapy(PDT) of liver carcinoma.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of PDT on the microvessels and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factors(VEGF) in tumor cells. Methods: The mice models subcutaneously transplanted with Heps liver carcinoma were randomly divided into a PDT group(n= 28) and a control group(n= 28).The dynamic changes of the microvessels and VEGF expression in the tumor cells were observed at 2,6,24 and 72 h after PDT by H-E and immunohistochemical staining.Results: Progressive changes were seen in the tumor microvessels at the four time points after PDT,including dilatation,blood stasis,hypostasis,hemorrhage,and angiolysis.Compared with the control group,the microvessel density of the tumors was reduced significantly(P

The incidence of swallowing disorder is high in previous research both in oral and pharyngeal stage, and there are many related factors contributing to the assessment of swallowing function. This article reviewed the research progress of dysphagia after traumatic brain injury (TBI) from epidemiology, assessment methods, characteristics, risk factors, therapeutic strategies and clinical outcome。

Objective To find out the clinical outcomes of twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) after aminioreduction. Methods Twenty-nine pregnancies with TTTS delivered in Beijing Gynecological and Obstetric Hospital from Nov. 1, 2002 to Sept. 30, 2007 were recruited. The effect of gestational age at the onset, the degree of TTTS and amnioreduction therapy on the fetal outcomes were compared. Results All of the 8 cases with the onset of TTTS before 26 weeks without treat- ment were lost, but 4 out of the 6 with the onset after 26 weeks survived (P=0. 015). Among the 9 cases received amnioreduction, 4 out of the 5 with onset before 26 weeks survived, and significant difference was found compared to those untreated ones (P= 0. 007), but no difference was shown when compared with those developed after 26 weeks(4/4)(P= 1. 000). The average delivery weeks in the untreated ones was earlier than those received treatment E(28.7±4.7)weeks vs (33.2±4.9) weeks, P=0. 001]. Amnioreduction improved the umbilical cord blood flow. For severe TTTS(stage Ⅲ～Ⅳ) with the onset before 26 weeks, the survival rate after amnioreduction was significantly high- er than those untreated ones[4/5 vs 0/5, P=0. 048)]. Conclusions Aminioreduetion is effective in improving the cord blood flow, prolonging the pregnancies, and achieving a higher fetal survival rate.

Objective To study the biological effects of hirudin on the cell circle of fibroblasts in hypertrophic scar.Methods Fibroblasts were taken from normal skin and hypertrophic scar,and cultured in vitro with various concentrations of hirudin.Then,flow cytometry was used for observing cellcycles,and Western blot for some proteins (p27 and cyclin E) related with cell circle.Results With the increasing of the concentrations of hirudin,fibroblasts on G1 phase increased and on S phase decreased,and the expression of protein p27 increased,but that of protein cyclin E decreased.Conclusion Hirudin can influence the cell circle of fibroblasts derived from normal skin and hypertrophic scar by means of the expression of some proteins related with celI circle.Hirudin causes G1 phase arrest and inhibits the production of fibroblasts.Therefore,it seems that hypertrophic scar could be prevented and treated with hirudin.
