Based on the peak value of power spectral density (PPSD) and corresponding frequency (CF), an approach that performs electroencephalogram (EEG) feature extraction during imaginary right and left hand movements was proposed. The data were gained from brain computer interface competition in 2003 provided by Graz University of Technology. The EEG signals between 8-16 Hz were decomposed by db3 wavelet packet at three levels. The PPSD and CF of electrodes C3 and C4 were defined as the EEG feature vectors and calculated respectively. The left and right hand motor imaginary tasks were distinguished by the time-variable linear classifier. The proposed method was applied to the test data for 140 trials. The satisfactory results were obtained with the highest classification accuracy 89.29%. The maximum mutual information was 0.622 8 bit, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was 1.371 3. The PPSD and its CF on electrodes C3 and C4 between 8 and 16 Hz were coincident with event-related desynchronization (ERD) and event-related synchronization (ERS). This method is simple, quick, and promising for on-line brain computer interface system.

Objective To learn mental health,life events and stress response of immigrant medical professionals. Methods Symptom checklist ( SCL-90), Life event scale ( LES), and Coping questionnaire (CQ) were used for assessment. Results SCL-90 ( 135.95 ± 32. 56 ), Somatization ( 1.62 ± 0. 38 ),obsessive-compulsion ( 1.75 ± 0. 53), depression (1.66 ± 0. 55) ,anxiety ( 1.52 ± 0. 54), hostility ( 1.53 ±0.45) ,and psychoticism (1.45 ±0.46) were even serious in immigrant medical professionals (all P＜0. 05). SCL-90 factor score was positively correlated with LES total score and LES factor score ( both P ＜0. 05 ). However, SCL-90 factor score was negatively correlated with problem-solving and coping style score of CQ (P ＜ 0. 01 ). Conclusion As mental health and life event responses were concerned, more attention should be paid to the immigrant medical professionals.

Objective To investigate the autophagy capacity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma tissue compared with adjacent normal tissue.Methods Sixty-nine pairs of samples from human clear cell renal cell carcinoma tissues and relatively healthy renal tissues adjacent to the tumor were collected during surgical resection.The expressions of proteins that were participating in the regulation and execution of autophagy were detected by immunohistochemisty.Electron-microscopy was also carried out for the morphometrical analysis.Results The protein expression of p-mTOR (P =0.004),P62 (P =0.000) and ULK1 (P =0.000) were up-regulated in the carcinoma tissue,while the expression of Beclin1 (P=0.000),LC3 (P =0.000) and ATG7 (P =0.000) were down-regulated,and the expression of ATG5 (P =0.349) had no signif-icant difference compared with adjacent normal tissue.Morphometrical analysis showed that the basal autophagic activity (measured by the presence of autophagy vacuole compartment) was remarkably down-regulated in carcinoma tissue,compared with adjacent normal tissue.The expression level of mTOR was correlated with P62,LC3 and ATG7,but results showed no correlation between mTOR and Beclin 1.Conclusion Our studies show a relatively reduced autophagy capacity in clear cell renal cell carcinoma,which is regulated by multiple autophagy-related proteins such as mTOR,Beclin 1 and LC3.

Aim To investigate the myocardial hypertrophy,the expression of transforming growth factor ?1(TGF-?1),Smad3 and Smad7 proteins in spontaneous hypertensive rats(SHR)and the effects of benazepril and candesartan.Methods SHRs of 12 weeks old were given benazepril and candesartan for 12 weeks.The tail arterial pressure was measured every two weeks.At 12 th weekend,cardiac configuration,heart mass index,area of cadiocytes,concertrations of AngⅡin plasma and myocardium,expressions of TGF-?1、Smad3 and Smad7 proteins were measured respectively.Results The arterial pressure,wall thickness,heart mass index,area of cardiocytes and the expressions of TGF-?1,Smad3 proteins increased in SHRs but were attenuated after the treatment of benazepril or candesartan.After the combined treatment,the synergistic effect could be observed.The levels of cardiac tissue and plasma AngⅡwere reduced.The expressions of Smad 7 were up-regulated after the treatment of benazepril or candesartan,while they were stable after the combined use.Conclusion There is a synergistic effect of attenuating myocardial hypertrophy in SHRs by combined use of benazepril and candesartan.It may be related to the regulation of Ang Ⅱ,decreasing the expressions of TGF-?1 and Smad3.
