Objective:To develop the Abusive Behavior Scale for Superiors under the Chinese context (ABSSC) and test its validity and reliability.Methods:Based on literature analysis and the open questionnaire survey in 32 employees,this study defined the construct of ASBSS,and compiled the preliminary questionnaire.A sample of 200 employees coming from companies was selected for item analysis.A sample of 445 employees was investigated with this questionnaire,223 of them were assessed for exploratory factor analysis and 222 of them were assessed for confirmatory factor analysis and internal consistency test with 2 week interval.Results:The ABSSC consisted of 11 items in 3 factors,which were neglect and slander,obstructionism and hard on subordinates.The 3 factors explained 55.45％ of the total variance.Furthermore,the result of CFA indicated that the model fitted the data with well constmct validity (RMSEA =0.06,GFI =0.94,NFI =0.92,CFI =0.96,IFI =0.96).The Cronbach α coefficient of the whole scale and its three facts were 0.87,0.79,0.78,and 0.76,respectively.Conclusion:It suggests that the Abusive Behavior Scale for superiors under the Chinese context (ABSSC) is reliable and valid enough to be applicable to measure superiors' abusive behavior under the background of Chinese culture.

Objective This study analyzes the expression and clinical significance of Gli1 and Gli3 proteins in hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods 36 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were studied.The expressions of Gli1 and Gli3 in the carcinoma and adjacent non-tumor tissues were detected with immunohistochemical assay,and their correlations with clinicopathological factors were statistically analyzed.Results Expression rates of Gli1 in hepatocellular carcinoma and adjacent nontumor tissues were 75 ％ and 36.1％,respectively.Expression rates of Gli3 in hepatocellular carcinoma and adjacent non-tumor tissues were 58.3％ and 30.6％,respectively.Expression rates of Gli1 and Gli3 in hepatocellular carcinoma were significantly higher than in adjacent non-tumor tissues (P＜0.05),and a positive correlation was found between the expression of Gli1 and Gli3 (r=0.423,P＜0.05).There was no association between the expression of Gli3 and clinicopathological factors such as age,tumor size,tumor differentiation and lymphatic metastasis.The expression of Gll1 was not related witha patient's age and tumor size,hut there were significant associations with tumor differentiation and lymphatic metastasis.Conclusions Therefore,the expression rate of Gli1 was positively correlated with tumor malignancy,which makes the detection of Gli1 and Gli3 valuable for the diagnosis and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy of qianliexin combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride and finasteride in the treatment of elderly benign prostatic hyperplasia.METHODS:Ninety-four patients diagnosed as benign prostatic hyperplasia in our hospital during May.2012-Oct.2014 were selected and divided into observation group (48 cases) and control group (46 cases) according to even and odd admission number.Both groups received Finasteride tablet 5 mg,po,qd.Basedon this,control group was additionally given Tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release capsules 0.2 mg,po,qd;observation group was additionally given Qianliexin capsules 2.5 g,po,tid,on the basis of control group.Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed as well as IPSS,BS,IIEF-5 score,ultrasonic measurement indexes and TCM syndrome score before and after treatment.RESULTS:Clinical total response rate of observation group was 93.75％,which was significantly higher than 76.09％ of control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in IPSS,BS,IIEF-5 score,ultrasonic measurement indexes and TCM syndrome score between 2 groups (P＞0.05).After treatment,IPSS and BS score,prostate volume (PV),residual urine(RU),each item score and total score of TCM syndrome were significantly decreased in 2 groups,while IIEF-5 score and Qmax were increased significantly;the observation group was significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Qianliexin combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride and finasteride shows significant therapeutic effi cacy for elderly benign prostatic hyperplasia,and is helpful to improve prostate symptoms and TCM syndromes,reduce PV and RU,and improve sexual function.

Objective To investigate the impact of daily life ability, self-efficacy and social support on post-stroke depression. Methods This was a cross-sectional questionnaire survey. A convenience sample of stroke patients from neurology department was created. Data were collected from patients about their level of daily life ability, self-efficacy, social support and depression measured. Inferential statistics multiple regression analysis was used to estimate the relationships between the predictors and post-stroke depression. Results A total of 144 (96.00%) of 150 stroke patients completed the questionnaires. The level of depression was 14.19 ± 9.25 with 25.00% (36/144) of incidence of post-stroke depression. Self-efficacy scored 40.45 ± 11.41, social support scored 28.34 ± 8.02, which negatively predicted depression (r=-0.834 and-0.736, P<0.01 respectively). Self-efficacy had the most significant impact on depression (t=-6.433, P < 0.01), however, the impact from daily life ability scored 76.74 ± 22.12, which had not statistically significant impact on depression (t=-1.773, P=0.083). Conclusions During treatment and nursing management of post-stroke depression, attention should be paid to the psychiatric variable such as self-efficacy and social support.

Objective: To investigate whether FasL expression by exogenous FasL gene transfer had regulatory effect on drug sensitivity of tumor cells. Methods: Exogenous Fasl, gene transfer was mediated by lipofectAMINE. The FasL expression was detected bv Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. The growth inhibition of cytotoxic drugs on tumor cells was measured by MTT assay. Fas mRNA expression was analyzed bv Semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Results: The eukaryotic expression vector, PcDNA3-FasL and PcDNA3 were successfully transteeted into MCF-7 cells. The transfectant cells was named as MCF-7/FL or MCF-7/Vt respectively. FasL was expressed on MCF-7/FL but not on MCF-7/Vt or MCF-7. The cytolysis ot MCF-7/FL induced by adriamycin at concentration of 0.625 ~ 2.5 ?g/ml, cisplatin of 1 .25 ~ 10 ?g/ml, or methotrexate of 3 ~ 6 ?g/ml respectively were all significantly enhanced compared with the cytolysis of MCF-7. Blocking FasL by using F(ab' )2-anti APO-1 antibody markedly reduced this up-regulated cytolysis induced by these drugs The significant up-regulation of Fas mRNA on MCF-7/FL was observed by Semi-quantitative RT-PCR after these drugs treatment. Conclusion: These findings indicated that FasL expression by gene transfer had up-regulation effect on drug sensitivity of tumor cells, this effect was associated with enhanced Fas expression induced by cytotoxic drugs.

Ascending and descending efferent projections of superior coUiculus were indentified by means of the anterograde horseradish peroxidase technique in the cat.Following injections of HRP into the rostral superior colliculus, a large number of labeled terminals were found mainly in several of the ipsilateral thalamic nuclei:ventromedial division of the ventral nucleus of the lateral geniculate body, zona incerta,lateral posterior nucleus, parafasciculus nucleus and centromedian nucleus. The mediodorsal nucleus and thalamic reticular nucleus were also found mildly labeled.Labeling were most heavily concentrated in the ipsilateral dorsolateral division of pontine nucleus and caudal region of parabigeminal nucleus. The dorsal part of medial accessory olivary was the only nucleus labeled contralaterally. After injecting HRP into the caudal superior colliculus, only the dorsolateral division of pontine nucleus was densely labeled, while labeled terminals of caudal parabigeminal nucleus signifcantly reduced in amount. No labeled terminals were found in the thalamus as well as medial accessory olivary nucleus. These results indicate that the efferent connections of superior colliculus are topographically organized.
