Objective To investigate the influence of hypnotherapy in patients with depression and their families. Methods One hundred and thirty-six cases of hospitalization or outpatient patients with depression were divided into the study group and the control group according to the order. The study group and the control group were treated with hypnosis therapy and venlafaxine, respectively. All patients were observed for 6 weeks. Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were assessed for patients with depression and the Symptom Checklist (SCL-90) and family assessment table (FAD) were assessed for thir families in the 0 and 6 weeks. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in the clinical efficacy (χ2=1.31,> 0.05) and the HAMD, HAMA scores in the 0 and 6 weeks ( >0.05) . There were significant differences between the 0 and 6 weeks within the two groups in the HAMD and HAMA scores ( < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the family members of two groups in the SCL-90 factor scores in the 0 and 6 weeks (>0.05) . There was no significant difference between the two groups in the FAD factor scores in the 0 and 6 weeks. There was significant difference between the 0 and 6 weeks within the two groups with emotional involvement, communication and FAD total scores ( <0.05). There were positiue correlations between the HAMA factor scores and FAD total scores ( <0.05) and between the HAMD factor scores and emotional involvement scores ( <0.05) . Conclusion There was equivalent efficacy between hypnotherapy and antidepressants in patients with depression. Hypnotherapy can effectively make the patient's depression and anxiety better and improve their family functions.

Objective To explore the effect of melatonin on mitochondria in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats and its potential mechanism. Methods The diabetic rat models were induced by intraperitoneal injection of STZ, and the diabetic rats were randomly divided into two groups: diabetes mellitus group (DM group) and melatonin-treated group (DM± MT group). The normal non-diabetic rats were served as control group. Mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial swelling were measured, the expression of voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC)was assayed by immunohistochemistry in the heart, liver and kidney among the different groups after 8 weeks. Results (1)Compared with DM group, mitochondrial membrane potential in the heart,liver and kidney were significantly elevated in DM± MT group (553.6± 193.5 vs. 311.4 ± 133.7;745.7±115.8 vs. 358.9±158.7; 951.6±246.1 vs. 425.8±177.9, all P＜0.05). (2)Compared with DM group, mitochondrial swelling in the heart, liver and kidney was reinforced in DM ± MT group. (3)Compared with DM group, the expressions of VDAC in the heart, liver and kidney were significantly up-regulated in DM± MT group (76.93 ± 8.263 vs. 58.59 ± 7.62, 50.69 ± 6.33 vs.40.11±6.30, 77.86±8.59 vs. 61.44± 12.86, all P＜0.05). Conclusions Melatonin has protective effect on the activity of mitochondria in the heart, liver and kidney in diabetic rats possibly by up-regulating the expression of VDAC.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) isolated from Zhenjiang area to 13 routinely used antibiotics and identify the structure and dissemination of class Ⅰ integron. Methods K-B test was used to determine the resistant rate of 71 strains of P. aeruginosa. DNA template was extracted by boiling method, PCR method was utilized to detect class Ⅰintegron, and subsequently gene cassettes were analyzed by sequencing. Results The resistant rates to 13 routinely used antibiotics were quite different from 18. 3 to 77.5% among 71 strains of P. aeruginosa. The prevalence of class Ⅰ integron was 38%. These integrons include 5 gene cassettes ( aadB, aac (6) - Ⅱ , PSE-Ⅰ , dfrA17 and aadAS), in which dfrA17 and aadA5 gene cassette were frequently found. Comparing with the negative strains of integron, the positive strains of integron has obviously higher resistance to ten the antibiotics including piporacillin, piperacillin-tazobactam, ceftriaxone, cefepime, ceftazidime, gentamicin,amikacin, tobmmycin, levofloxacin, and ciprofloxacin. Conclusions The resistant rates of P. aeruginosa to 13 drugs were different, and the resistant rates of integron positive strains were obviously higher than integron negative strains, which indicates that integron may play an important role in multidrug reisistance of P. aeruginoosa.

Objective To measure anatomic data related to the thyroid cartilage and cricoid cartilage and to analyze their implications for anterior spine surgery.Methods From January 2015 to February 2017,Cervical spine CT image data of 309 normal adults (195 males,114 females) in our department were retrospectively analyzed.The transverse diameters of the thyroid cartilage and the cricoid cartilage was measured at three different levels as follows:the superior border of the thyroid cartilage(SBTC),the inferior border of the thyroid cartilage(IBTC),and the inferior border of the cricoid cartilage(IBCC).At those levels,the corresponding level and transverse diameter of the cervical vertebra or intervertebral disc were also determined.Differences of anatomic parameters for each gender and level,and the relationship between the transverse diameter and height and weight were analyzed.Results The transverse diameters of the thyroid cartilage or cricoid cartilage and the corresponding cervical vertebra or intervertebral disc were associated significantly with height and weight.The transverse diameters of the thyroid cartilage or cricoid cartilage gradually decreased from the level of SBTC (44.30±4.97 mm) to the level of IBTC (41.39±4.62 mm),and the latter to the level of IBCC (26.36±3.79 mm),but increased from the level of SBTC (27.47±2.66 mm) to the level of IBTC (29.00±3.15 mm),and the latter to the level of IBCC (31.48±3.49 mm) for the cervical vertebra or intervertebral disc.Differences of the transverse diameters of the thyroid cartilage or cricoid cartilage and the cervical vertebra or intervertebral disc on three levels had statistical significance.The transverse diameters of each level had individual differences,while men were greater than those for women.The thyroid cartilage was routinely located above the C5 (56.9％ for male,86.0％ for female).Differences of the frequency between men and women on three levels had statistical significance.Conclusion The Individual and sex differences in the location of the thyroid cartilage and the size of the thyroid cartilage and the cricoid cartilage provided anatomical basis for predicting the difficulty of intraoperative exposure,incidence of esophageal injuries and early postoperative dysphagia.

Objective To explore the origin of ovarian high grade serous carcinoma(HGSC) through analysing the expression and significance of PAX8,PAX2,p53 and RAS in the ovary and fallopian tube of different types and grades of serous carcinoma. Methods A total of 44 cases tissue samples of ovarian tumor including 34 malignant ovarian tumor and 10 normal normal tissue (as control group) were collected from the admitted patients in Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2015 to January 2016. Fallopian tube tissues were segmented in accordance with the fimbria, ampulla, isthmus and the corresponding ovarian tissues were by the side. There were 34 cases of patients with ovarian cancer including 29 cases of epithelial ovarian cancer (27 serous carcinoma, 1 mucinous carcinoma,1 endometrioid adenocarcinoma)and 5 non-epithelial ovarian cancer(sex cord-interstitial tumor). Among 27 cases of patients with ovarian serous cancer,there were 23 HGSC and 4 low-grade ovarian serous cancer (LGSC). One hundred fifty-three cases of samples were diagnosed as ovarian serous cancer by Shandong University Affiliated Qilu Hospital from 2005 to 2013 and these samples were made tissue microarray.(1)To analyze the expression and differences of PAX8,PAX2,p53 and RAS in the above tissues and tissue microarray from ovarian and tubal of HGSC and control women by immunohistochemistry methods.(2)To compare the expression levels of PAX8,PAX2,p53 and RAS in ovarian and fallopian tubes of ovarian cancer patients with different pathological types. (3) To analyze the correlations of tubal and ovarian tissue in PAX8,PAX2,p53 and RAS expression of HGSC.(4)To analyze the factors of the prognosis of ovarian serous cancer in tissue microarray by single factor analysis method. Results (1)PAX8,PAX2, p53 and RAS expression was negative in normal ovarian epithelium of control group,but the expression of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS were strongly positive brown in secrete cells of normal fallopian tube epithelium.(2)p53 and RAS expression of fallopian tube epithelium in the epithelial ovarian cancer group were significantly higher than those in the non-epithelial ovarian cancer groups(P<0.05),but the expression of PAX8 and PAX2 in fallopian tube and the expression of PAX8,PAX2,p53 and RAS in ovarian tissue was not statistically significant in the groups(P>0.05).PAX8,PAX2 and p53 expression of the ovarian in HGSC group were significantly higher than those in LGSC group(P<0.05),while the expression of RAS was lower in the ovarian of the high-grade group (P<0.05), while the expression of PAX8, PAX2, p53 and RAS in fallopian tube was not statistically significant in the groups(P>0.05).(3)There was a significantly positive correlation between fallopian tube and the corresponding ovary of HGSC in PAX8 and PAX2 expression(r=0.422, P=0.045; r=0.693, P=0.000), but not correlation in p53 and RAS expression (r=0.058, P=0.793; r=-0.190,P=0.384).(4)Univariate survival analysis showed that the progression free survival time in patients with ovarian serous cancer group was significantly correlated with the protein expression of PAX8, PAX2 and RAS(P<0.05),but there were not correlated with age,surgical staging,cell differentiation,lymph node metastasis and preoperative chemotherapy and p53 protein expression (P>0.05). The total survival time in patients with ovarian serous cancer group was significantly correlated with the protein expression of PAX8 (P<0.05),but there were not correlated with age,surgical staging,cell differentiation,lymph node metastasis and preoperative chemotherapy and the protein expression of PAX2, RAS and p53 (P>0.05). Conclusions PAX8, PAX2, p53, RAS are of great significance for the study of origin of HGSC. HGSC may be derived from fallopian tube, but further investigation would be necessary to confirm this. PAX8, PAX2, p53, RAS could be expected to be used as predictors of survival prognosis in patients with ovarian serous cancer.
