ObjectiveTo review retinitis pigmentosa (RP)-related gene researches in China. Methods RP genes and RP gene therapy as key words were searched from those online databases including China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD), and Human Genome Variation Society (HGVS). Related papers written by authors from China or other countries,published from 1991 to 2011 were collected for analysis. ResultsOverall 60 RP-related genes have been identified now. Chinese researchers from 29 hospitals and research institutes confirmed 17 RP-related gene changes (239 mutations, 131 of them are pathogenic) in 300 RP families and 1572 sporadic RP patients from 1991 to 2011, as reported in 66 papers. Mutations in rhodopsin (RHO) gene, NR2E3 gene and RP1 gene were found in 2.0％, 2.9％ and 1.0％ of Chinese RP patients respectively.The relationship between genotypes and clinical phenotypes were investigated in 15 papers, including RHO gene, RDS gene, RP1 and RPGR or RP3 gene in ADRP families. Gene therapy for RP has been investigated in 4 papers. Seven hundred and eighteen papers about RP gene-mutation screening have been published from other countries,and more than 2000 variants were identified which including 352 disease-causing mutations. Mutations of RHO gene, RDS and RP1 were found in 25％-50％, 8％ and 5％-10％ of ADRP patients in Caucasian populations. RPGR mutations were found in 70％-80％ of XLRP patients in Caucasian populations, and 50％-60％ of mutations are identified in open reading frame (ORF) 15. Totally 391 papers about gene therapy for RP have been published. ConclusionsSeventeen RP-related genes have been studied and 131pathogenic mutations were found in China. Considering Chinese population, our RP research is still behind other countries.

Objective To look for a method for isolation and cultivation of mesenchymal stem cells from human adipose tissue in vitro. Method The adipose tissue was obtained from the omentum of abdominal surgery patients under the aseptic condition. The fat then was minced and digested with 5ml 0 25% trypin for 30 minutes in a 37℃ water bath under constant agitation. The layer with monoclear cells was aspirated and supplemented with albumin, then was cultured in DMEM with 15% calf serum. Immunocytochemistry was used to determine the surface molecule CD44, HLA DR and VWF. Result There was a large amount of mesenchymal stem cells in human adipose tissue. Immunocytochemical staining showed that most of the cultured cells were CD44 positive, few HLA DR positive and VWF positive, indicating that most of the cultured cells were MSC, and the others were fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Conclusion A simple and convenient method to isolate and culture the adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells was successfully established, providing the foundation for the future use of ADMSCs in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance and changes of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and S100 protein in blood serum in patients with enterovirus 71 infection.Methods A total of 176 children with enterovirus 71 infection admitted from March 1,2012 through October 31,2012 were enrolled for a prospective and control study.According to diagnostic criteria of the enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection instituted by expert consensus for treatment of severe patients sets in 2011,the patients were divided into three groups:mild group (n =62),severe group (n =65) and critically care group (n =49),and another 30 healthy children served as control group.The demographics of patients including age and sex were comparable between control group and the sick children groups.Four milliliter of peripheral blood were taken from ill children on the first day before treatment and on the first,second,third day after treatment.The blood samples of healthy children were taken on the first day after physical examination.At the same time,the clinical data of blood routine,blood biochemistry,myocardial enzymes and C-reactive protein during the first 24 hours were collected.Immunohistochemical technique was used to study the change of NSE and S100 levels in serum.Data were expressed in mean ± standard deviation ((x) ± s) and were statistically analyzed by using SPSS 13.0 statistical software.Comparisons were carried out among different groups with one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and between groups were performed with the Student t test.Changes were considered as statistically significant if P values was less than 0.05.Results ①Compared with mild group and control group,the levels of NSE and S100 protein were significantly higher in severe group and critically care group (P ＜0.05).②The serum levels of NSE and S100 protein in severe group were higher than in those in mild group with better outcomes (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of NSE and S100 protein as biomarkers can be used to evaluate the severity of EV71 infection,and can also be used to determine the efficacy of treatment.

Objective To investigate the impact of workplace bullying,general self?efficacy,self?es?teem on mental health of nurses. Methods With random sampling,450 nurses from six hospitals in Nanning of Guangxi were selected to complete questionnaire survey. Results 34.7% of nurses were reported to have been subjected to bullying at their workplace. Workplace bullying(23.78±6.94) showed significantly nega?tive relationship with mental health(36.63±4.53)( r=-0.32, P<0.01),while general self?efficacy(26.86± 4.82) and self?esteem(30.62±4.08) showed significantly positive correlations with mental health( r=0.45, 0.44, P<0.01). Workplace bullying had a significantly negative effect on mental health ( β=-0.25, P<0.01) ,and the relationship was affected by general self?efficacy and self?esteem. Conclusion Workplace bullying can influent nurses' mental health through self?esteem and the relationship is moderated by general self?efficacy.

Objective To measure the range of motion (ROM) of the lumbar pedicle screw entrance point (LPSEP) in vivo during unrestricted motion under physiological weight bearing.Methods Eleven healthy volunteers aged 45-60 years underwent MRI scans in a supine position.Three-dimensional (3D) models of L2-5 were constructed.Next,each volunteer was asked to stand and was positioned in the following sequence:standing,45° flexion,maximal extension,maximal left-right twisting,while two orthogonal fluoroscopic images were taken simultaneously at each position.The MRI models were matched to the osseous outlines of the images from the two orthogonal views to determine the position of the vertebrae in 3D at each position.Coordinate systems were established to study the ROM of the LPSEP.Results The predominant translations were along anteroposterior and craniocaudal axis from supine to standing position (average,2.44mm and 2.35 mm).Rotation of the LPSEP occurred mainly around the mediolateral axis(average,3.91 °).During flexion-extension movements of the trunk,the predominant translation were along anteroposterior and craniocaudal axis and rotation were around mediolateral axis.During lateral bending and twisting,ROM of LPSEP did not rotate or translate in one dominant direction.Instead,the resulting motion represented a combination of rotation and translation in different directions.There was no significantly difference in translation and rotation between the three axis in L4,5segment (P＞0.05).Conclusion The kinematic behaviors of the LPSEP of the upper lumbar spine (L2,3 and L3,4) are similar which are different from that of the lower lumbar spine (L4,5).

Objective:To develop a mental status scale in non psychiatric settings (MSSNS) and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the common negative emotions in non psychiatric settings confirmed by nursing specialists and international scales, the MSSNS was constructed with psychological testing and statistical techniques. The reliability and validity were examined with 1 010 patients in non psychiatric settings.Results: The MSSNS consisted of 38 items. The reliability coefficients were 0.932 9 for internal consistence(Cronbach ?) and 0.894 0 for split half. Using the principle component analysis with varimax rotation, we got 4 factors: anxiety, depression, anger and loneliness. The correlation between MSSNS and related factors of HAD were 0.652 and 0.533 respectively. Conclusion: With its good reliability and validity, MSSNS is an ideal rating scale for total and convenient rating of patients' mental status in non psychiatric settings.

Objective:To quantitively assess the mental status of patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS) for correct diagnosis of those have serious mental crisis,providing scientific basis for the psychological intervention. Methods:The mental status in 46 SARS patients were analyzed with the Mental Status Scale in Non psychiatric Settings(MSSNS, by Department of Psychology, Second Military Medical University )and compared with that of the common pneumonia patients and the norm of common inpatients. Results:The scores of SARS patients and those of the other pneumonia patients and the norm of common inpatients had no significant difference. The psychological reactions of SARS patients were related significantly with the patient's age, marital status, occupation and the duration of fever. Conclusion:The psychological reactions of SARS patients were accordant with those of the common patients. The results indicated that the patient's personality, such as the emotional stability, was the essential impact factor on the patient's mental status. The level of negative emotional reactions in SARS patients are influenced by whether the patients are young, single, lack of medical knowledge and fever duration. So the effective psychological intervention to the SARS patients should be based on the scientific assessment and influencing factors analysis.
