Objective To observe the characteristic of precancerous lesions and early gastric carcinoma with narrow belt imaging technology. Methods The 74 patients were enrolled in this study. The same case was used as self-control. The operation was made in pain-less under anesthesia. When the mirror was advanced to the duodenal descending segment, an ordinary microscope mode was used and the mirror was back to Mallory, the lesions found were recorded, the image was zoomed in with low-fold and observed (1.4,1.6,1.8 times). Suspicious lesions were collected and biopsies were made. Results Chronic gastritis could be commonly found in type A and AB. Mild in-testinalization and mild atypical hyperplasia could be commonly found in mixed type holding type C, type BC and AB. Moderate atypical hy-perplasia could be found in type CD and AC, and heavy atypical hyperplasia in type CD and D. Early gastric cancers (superficial depressed) were seen in type BC and irregular thick type A. Advanced gastric cancers were in type CD, D and C. Helicobacter pylori infection were common in type A and B. Protruded type, sunken type were not easily missed with common endoscopic and NBI. But "for ordinary focus of infection, it was easily missed with common endoscopic, while less with NBI. Conclusion NBI is a simple and safe method, which can be used to find precancerous lesions and early gastric cancer lesions more easily. It will enlaance the diagnosis rate of precancerous lesions and early gastric cancer as positive rate of biopsy was markedly improved.

Objective:
To analyze the relationship between school bullying and parent child separation of left behind children, and to provide a theoretical basis for preventing and controlling school bullying of left behind children.
Methods:
A total of 4 945 children aged 7 to 18 in Shangrao City were selected by stratified cluster random sampling to complete the Chinese version of the School Bullying Experience Questionnaire(C-SBEQ), and the differences of school bullying between left behind and non left behind children were compared. The parent child separation data of 1 791 left behind children was obtained by self designed questionnaire, and the influence of parent child separation characteristics on school bullying of left behind children was analyzed by binary Logistic regression.
Results:
The rates of school bullying, bully victimization and perpetration of left behind children were 21.3%, 18.3% and 3.0% respectively, which were higher than those of non left behind children(15.4%, 12.7%, 2.7%). And there were statistical significance in the detection rates of school bullying among left behind children in different schooling stages( χ 2=9.82, P < 0.05), the detection rates ranked as follows:21.4% in primary school, 18.9% in junior high school and 14.7% in senior high school. The rate of bullying perpetration among left behind children was significantly higher in boys (4.8%) than in girls (1.0%)( χ 2= 14.69, P <0.05). The rate bully victimization among former left behind children (children with left behind experience) in the younger than 7 years group ( 20.3 %) was higher than that in the older than 7 years group(13.4%)( χ 2=4.79, P =0.03). There was no significant differences in the detection rate of bullying perpetration among the left behind children with different parent child separation experiences ( P >0.05). Control schooling stages, Logistic regression analysis showed that taking former school age left behind children as reference, bully victimization risk of former pre school left behind children was 1.64 times( OR=1.64, 95%CI= 1.04 -2.59, P <0.05).
Conclusion
School bullying of left behind children is more severce than that of non left behind children. Early occurrence of parent child separation is associated with higher risk of bullying victimization among left behind children.

The aim of this study is to quantify the 146S antigen in foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) inactivated vaccine by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC). The analysis was performed on a TSKgel G4000SWXL column (7.8 mm×30 cm), with a pH 7.2 buffer salt system as the mobile phase. The flow rate was 0.6 mL/min, the injection volume was 100 μL and the detection wavelength was 259 nm. The calibration curve was established by using purified inactivated FMDV (serotype O) 146S antigen; 3 batches of vaccine formulated by inactivated antigen solution were tested to verify the accuracy, reproducibility, specificity and tolerability of the method. At last 16 batches of vaccine were determined by the SEC method. Results showed a good linearity between peak area and concentration of 146S antigen in the range between 0.56 and 67.42 μg/mL (R2=0.996, n=10), and the average recovery rate of 146S antigen in the 3 batches of vaccine formulated in lab were 93.6% (RSD=2.7%, n=3), 102.3% (RSD=2.6%, n=3), and 95.5% (RSD=5.1%, n=3). The method was proved accurate and reliable with good reproducibility (RSD=0.5%, n=6), and applied to determine 16 batches of the commercial FMDV vaccine. According to the above results, the SEC method is high effective for 146S antigen quantify in the inactivated FMDV vaccine and would provide strong support for the vaccine quality control.

We developed a pre-treatment method to remove interfering substances during quantification of 146S antigens in foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) vaccines by high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC). Three methods, including ultracentrifugation, PEG precipitation and nuclease digestion, were optimized and compared for removal efficiency of the interfering impurities in FMD vaccines. Under optimized conditions, the 146S contents in two batches of FMD vaccines were determined to be 7.1 and 7.6 μg/mL by ultracentrifugation, 9.7 and 10.4 μg/mL by PEG precipitation, and 10.5 and 10.4 μg/mL by nuclease digestion. The optimal condition for nuclease digestion using Benzonase determined by response surface method was as follows: appending Benzonase into 200 μL of antigen phase to a final concentration of 421 U/mL and incubating at 25.1 °C for 1.29 h. This method has advantages including efficient removal of the interfering impurities, fast processing speed, and mild operating conditions. Then 12 bathes of FMD vaccines with different serotypes produced by 4 manufacturers were tested to verify the established treatment method. Results showed the method was applicable to various FMD vaccines with good reproducibility (RSD<5.3%, n=3). The developed method removed interference from impurities during quantification of 146S, and therefore would broaden the application of HPSEC in vaccine quality control and ensure the accuracy and reliability.
