Objective To conduct a health check-up intention analysis to understand residents' altitude to health eheck-up. Methods A total of 3600 residents living in Shanghai completed the selfdesigned questionnaire. Results About 35.2% participants received health check-up onee per year. In 36 to 60 or > 60 age group, the figure was increased up to 62.6% or 50. 4%, respectively. Public institution employees and those with medical insurance were found to have the highest rate of health checkup. Conclusion Our investigation results suggest that government leadership,health management model and contents, and personnel training should be improve.

Objective To explore the effect of thymosin and MVP chemotherapy on the life quality of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) patients. Methods 50 cases of NSCLC patients who received MVP(MMC, VDS, DDP) chemotherapy,were randomly divided into experimental group (using thymosin α1) and control group;before chemotherapy and at the end of chemotherapy (the first 2 weeks), the quality of life was evaluated and analyzed comparatively by the FACT-L questionnaire of patients with lung cancer-Chinese version (V4.0). Results The re-sults of the experimental group score increased by (3.13±2.29),and control group score increased by(-1.07± 2.19) with significant differences (P<0.01). Conclusions Thymosin α1 can improve the short-term quality of life of the non-small cell lung cancer patients who received MVP chemotherapy.

Objective To explore the lower limbs joints movement of patients with unilateral and primary artificial hip replacement in convalescence. Methods 100 cases of patients with unilateral and primary artificial hip replacement in convalescence were chosen as the ob-servation group,while 100 cases of matched healthy subjects were included as the control groups. The three-dimensional kinematics and mo-tion of lower extremities were monitored. Results The difference in operated knee flexion,operated ankle planter flexion and operated hip flexion of the observation group and the observation group were statistically significant(P<0. 05). The difference in the joint angle peak of hip backward extension of sagittal section,hip adduction of frontal plane,knee adduction of frontal plane,ankle adduction and outreach of frontal plane,hip internal rotation and extorsion of horizontal plane,ankle rotation and extorsion of horizontal plane in two groups were statisti-cally significant(P<0. 05). Conclusion There are abnormal prosthetic joint movement,limited range of operated movement in patients with unilateral and primary artificial hip replacement in convalescence,and coterminous kinematic chains appear compensatory changes,it should strengthen the muscle exercises of operated hip.

Objective To study the pathogenic bacteria species and drug resistance rate in the intensive care unit(ICU)in county hospital to guide clinical rational use of antibiotics. Methods 263 various specimens were chosen from January 2013 to December 2013 in the ICU of Zigui County People's Hospital in Hubei Province,these were applied to perform the bacterial culture and identification,and disc AGAR diffusion method was used to test the in vitro drug susceptibility and observe the specimens distribution,pathogenic distribution and the rate of drug resistance. Results In the 263 specimens,the top three isolated were 131 sputum(49.8%),49 blood(18.6%) and 38 ascites specimens(14.4%)respectively,and the pleural effusion was the least isolated with 5(1.9%). A total of 125 strains bacteria were isolated with positive detection rate of 47.5%(125/263). In the 125 strains,80(64.0%) were Gram-negative(G-)bacilli at the pioneer position,and the top four were:Klebsiella pneumonia 23(18.4%), Acinetobacter Baumanni 19(15.2%),Escherichia coli 18(14.4%)and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 12 strains(9.6%). There were 33 strains(26.4%)of Gram positive(G+)cocci including mainly Staphylococcus aureus 25 strains(20.0%);fungi strains were 12,the least(9.6%). The drug resistance rates of the top four G- bacillus were as follows:the rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae to ampicillin sodium was the highest(100%),while its rate to imipenem,meropenem and ciprofloxacin was 0;the rates of Acinetobacter baumannii to tobramycin and ceftriaxone were very high(100%, 92.3%),while to imipenem,meropennem were much lower respectively(26.3%,15.4%);the rates of Escherichia coli to ampicillin sodium and piperacillin were relatively high(88.9%,83.3%),while the rates to amikacin,imipenem, meropennem respectively were 0;the rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ceftriaxone,cefotaxime sodium were very high(both 100%),while the resistant rate to levofloxacin was 0. The G+ cocci had no drug-resistance to linezolid, teicoplanin and vancomycin;the rates of Staphylococcus aureus to azithromycin,clindamycin,erythromycin and penicillin were higher than 80%,and those of Excrement enterococcus to erythromycin,gentamycin,levofloxacin were also higher than 80%. Conclusions The ICU infection of our hospital is primarily respiratory tract infection, the pathogenic bacteria are mainly G- bacilli and the antibacterial drug resistance is very serious. Therefore it is necessary to monitor the trend of bacterial resistance closely,and according to the results of bacteria identification and drug susceptibility,the antimicrobial agents are reasonably chosen to effectively reduce and control the ICU hospital infection.

ObjectivetTo investigate the interleukin-16 (IL-16) mRNA expression and IL-16 secretion by peripheral blood mononucle-ar cells (PBMCs) of patients with lupus nephritis (LN) .Methods: 15 patients with active LN, 10 with inactive LN and 8 normal controls were included in the research. TTie supernatant IL-16 levels of freshly isolated PBMCs were measured by ELISA; the IL-16mRNA level were measured by RT-PCR.Results: As compared with the control group, both active and inactive LN patients had significantly increase in IL-16mRNA expression and IL-16 secretion, but didn't find the difference of IL-16mRNA expression between active and inactive LN groups.Conclusion: LN patients can endogeneous over-express IL-16 gene and abnormally produce IL-16 protein by PBMCs . IL-16 might play a role in the patho-genesis of LN.

Purpose:To evaluate the accuracy of diagnosing the gastrointestinal vascular malformation and the value of treatment of the hemorrhage of the interventional radiology.Materials and Methods:The superior mesenteric arteriography or/and the inferior mesenteric arteriography or arteriography of coeliac axis were performed by applying Seldinger's techniques in 22 cases with the gastrointestinal bleeding which were suspicous of the gastrointestinal vascular malformation,otherwise were negative or equivocal in di- agnosis by performing with non-interventional study.Results:Focci were detected in 31 arteriographies (22 cases)with the positive gastrointestinal vascular malformation.Operative treatment were performed in 14 of 22 cases,with confimation of the vascular malformation pathologically.Conclusion:The se- lective coeliac arteriography may be a reliably unique method in detection of the gastrointestinal vascular malformation.
