ObjectiveTo develop the military acute stress scale and examine the reliability and validity of this scale.MethodsBased upon the previous acute stress researches and the rule of psychometrics,the military acute stress scale was compiled according to open-ended inventory survey.A total of 630 personnel were chosen by random cluster sampling,and tested with this scale,50 of them were tested by Chinese Military psychosomatic health Scale simultaneously,and 50 of them were retested after two week.The reliability and validity were examined by exploratory factor analysis,confirmatory factor analysis and correlation analysis.ResultsThe military acute stress scale was comprised of 9 factors and one lie sub-scale ; Main fit indexes of model were the following CMIN =1219.476,DF =593,P =0.000,CMIN/DF =2.056,IFI =0.927,TLI =0.902,CFI =0.924,RMSEA =0.059; The conrelation coefficients between subscales and subscales were 0.284-0.572.The correlation coefficients between subscales and total scale were 0.700 ～ 0.846 (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ) ; The correlation coefficients was significant between this scale and Chinese military psychosomatic health scale.The correlation coefficients were 0.338-0.962 (P ＜ 0.01 ).The test-retest correlation coefficients of total scale and subscales were 0.379-0.909 (P ＜ 0.01 ).The Cronbaeh's α coefficients were 0.606-0.926 ; and the split-half correlation coefficients were 0.466-0.855.ConclusionThe military acute stress scale has acceptable psychometrics properties on reliability and validity.

Adenomatous polyposis coli gene is an important anti-oncogene of the Wnt signaling pathway. The promoter hypermethylation of APC gene can effect the expression of APC mRNA and APC proteinum, which can make Wnt signaling pathway anomalous. Recently. the promoter hypermethylation of APC Gene in gynecological tumors is found in many studies, and it is related to the aggravation level of tumor.This paper reviews the influencing factors and progress of promoter methylation of APC gene in Gynecological cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of loratadine combined with compositus mentholi cream in the treatment of infantile with external ear eczema and evaluate the safety .Methods:Totally 96 cases of infantile with external ear eczema were ran-domly divided into the observation group (n=48) and the control group (n=48) according to a random number table .Both groups were given the conventional treatment .The control group was treated with topical compositus mentholi cream , while the observation group was treated with loratadine additionally .Both groups were treated for 10 d.The clinical efficacy , the level changes of interleukin-4 (IL-4), interferon-γ(IFN-γ) and immunoglobulin-E (IgE) before and after the treatment, the incidence of adverse reactions during the treatment and the relapse after 6-month follow-up were compared between the groups .Results:The total effective rate of the obser-vation group (95.83%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (79.17%, P<0.05); the levels of IL-4, IFN-γand IgE in both groups were significantly decreased after the treatment (P<0.05), and those in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05);there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the groups (P<0.05); the recurrence rate in the observation group (8.33%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (22.92%, P<0.05).Conclusion:The clinical efficacy of loratadine combined with compositus mentholi cream in the treatment of infantile with external ear eczema is reliable with promising safety .

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the function of activator protein-1 (AP-1) in proliferation and collagen synthesis of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) in neonatal rats induced by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and to explore the mechanism of Qiangxin Decoction (QXD), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, in reversing cardiac fibrosis. METHODS: CFs derived from neonatal rats were cultured with enzymatic dissociation, and fibrosis of the CFs was induced by TNF-alpha. The CFs were divided into normal control group, untreated group, 5% QXD-containing serum group, 10% QXD-containing serum group and 20% QXD-containing serum group. After 24-hour culture of QXD-containing serum, AP-1 mRNA was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction; proliferation and collagen synthesis of CFs were assayed by thiazolyl blue assay (MTT) and measured by hydroxyproline respectively, in order to determine the effect of different dosage decoction on the proliferation and collagen synthesis of CFs. RESULTS: After 24-hour stimulation of TNF-alpha in CFs, compared with those in normal control group, the expression of AP-1 mRNA and cardiac fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis increased significantly (P<0.05). However, Qiangxin Decoction could reduce the expression of AP-1 mRNA and decreased the proliferation and collagen synthesis of CFs significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Qiangxin Decoction can inhibit proliferation and collagen synthesis of CFs induced by TNF-alpha, and reverse cardiac fibrosis, which may be related to its down-regulation of the expression of AP-1.

It is necessary to have a research on dental fluorosis in a population to minimize the prevalence and severity of caries.It is important to research the pathogenesis of enamel fluorosis and prevention and control of dental fluorosis and caries.This article reviews the progress in chemistry and biology of dental fluorosis.

Venous thrombotic disease is a serious disease,which impact on health and life-threatening.Pulmonary embolism and deep-vein thrombosis are the two components of a single disease called venous thromboembolism in obstetrics and gynecology.but it can be difficult to diagnose because clinical symptoms and signs are non-specific or absent in early venous thrombus embolism (VTE).It has great value that how to use the most economic,simple,efficient method for screened high-risk groups,timely and accurate laboratory diagnosis of VTE.

The clinical data and ultrasound findings of 185 patients with thyroid nodules undergoing thyroidectomy from June to December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed.Postoperative pathology confirmed malignant thyroid nodules in 86 cases and benign nodules in 99 cases.The ultrasonographic findings showed that there were significant differences in obscure boundary [51％ (44/86) vs.16％ (16/99)],hypoecho [(95％ (82/86) vs.27％ (27/99)],internal micro-calcification [63％ (54/86) vs.21％ (21/99)] and lymph node enlargement [33％ (28/86) vs.5％ (5/99)] between malignant and benign nodules (all P ＜ 0.05).The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy of thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS) in differentiation of malignant and benign thyroid nodules were 77％ (66/86),86％ (85/99),83％ (66/80),81％ (85/105) and 82％ (151/185),respectively.The positive rates of thyroid globulin antibody(TGAb) and thyroid peroxydase antibody (TPO-Ab) in malignant nodules [6％ (5/79) and 25％ (20/79)] were significantly higher than those in benign nodules [0 (0/94) and 12％ (11/94)] (both P ＜0.05).There was no significant difference in free T3 (FT3),free T4 (FT4) and TSH between the two groups [(4.91-± 0.78) vs.(4.93-± 1.98) pmol/L,(13.57 ±2.22) vs.(13.58 ±2.17)pmol/Land(1.78±1.40) vs.(1.88±2.36)mU/L] (allP＞0.05).The results indicate that TI-RADS grading and thyroid immunity index are valuable for differential diagnosis of thyroid nodules.

Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is gaining extensive attention in recent years because of the high incidence. But because of the complex symptoms and signs, there exist no diagnostic consensus. In this paper, the available objective diagnostic methods so far are reviewed, in the purpose of discussing the approach of objective and accurate diagnosis of LPR.
