Objective To compare the differences of dysfunctional attitudes between depressive patients in remission with and without personality disorder (PD).Methods A total of 72 patients with remitted depression were assessed with Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire-4 (PDQ-4) and Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale (DAS).They were divided into PD group ( n = 20 ) and non-PD group ( n = 31 ) according to their PDQ-4 scores.The differences of dysfunctional attitudes between the two groups were compared.Results The total score and seven factors' scores of DAS of the PD group were ( ( 142.40 ± 20.68 ), ( 16.55 ± 3.76), ( 16.35 ± 5.45 ),( 18.35 ± 4.15 ), ( 17.90 ± 3.55 ), ( 18.85 ± 5.72 ), ( 18.25 ± 4.82 ), ( 20.75 ± 5.54) respectively) significantly higher than the counterparts of the non-PD group, which were( ( 113.61 ± 19.08 ), (13.71 ± 2.88 ), ( 12.45 ±2.87) ,(12.55 ±3.60),(13.90 ±3.72) ,(14.68 ±3.51),(14.16 ±4.12),(15.81 ±4.78)) respectively (P＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion Remitted depressive patients with personality disorders have more cognitive distortions than those without personality disorders.

Resveratrol is a polyphenolic compounds in many plants.It has many effects inchuding antioxidation,anti-inflammation,inhibiting apoptosis,and scavenging free radicals.Resveratrol preconditioning has neuroprotective effect in ischemia-reperfusion in rats by activating silent information regulator 2 homolog 1.This effect is similar to brain ischemic preconditioning.In addition,resveratrol can also attenuate the brain infraction volume of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in mice and improve neurological function.This article reviews the neuroprotective effect of resveratrol and its mechanisms in cerebral ischemia.

Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a serine/threonine protein kinase,which is a energy regulation switch in the cells of the body.In the case of nutritional deficiencies and ischemia,AMPK system is activated as the metabolism and stress signal transduction component to regulate the expression of downstream target proteins.After acute ischemic stroke,AMPK is activated and aggravates neuronal apoptosis,and giving AMPK inhibitor may reduce cerebral ischemic injury.The activation of AMPK after stroke may result in the upregulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression and the activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase,and they play the protective roles for neuronal regeneration and repair.This article reviews the advances in research on the roles of AMPK in experimental cerebral ischemia.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic Miles surgery at differented periods.Methods Radical excision(Miles) was performed under a laparoscope on 33 patients from January 2002 to August 2002(group 1),and then on 34 cases from July 2006 to May 2007(group 2) in our hospital.Clinicopathological and follow-up data of the two groups were collected and analyzed.Results No significant difference was found in blood loss(50-200 ml vs 40-210 ml,Z=1.477,P=0.787),number of resected lymph nodes(both 3-5,Z=-0.089,P=0.233),gas expel(in 1-3 days after the surgery vs 1-4 days,Z=-1.622,P=0.574),and postoperative hospital stay(4-9 days vs 5-9 days,Z=-1.834,P=0.346) between the two groups.However,the patients in group 1 had significantly longer operation time and higher medical cost than group 2(175-210 min vs 120-150 min,Z=4.238,P=0.026;23400-27500 yuan vs 19863-22744 yuan,Z=5.283,P=0.003).Conclusion After 4-year development,the operation time and cost of laparoscopic Miles surgery has been decreased.

Objective To investigate the effects of resveratrol on the first and double oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) primary cortical neuron silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity and ATP content, and its possible neuroprotective mechanism. Methods Cortical neurons were taken from the embryos of 18-day Wistar rats. An in vitro repeated ischemia model was induced by the double OGD after the success of primary culture. Trypan blue stalning was used to detect the cel survival rate. Western blot was used to detect the SIRT1 and phospho-AMPK expression. Deacetylase fluorescence assay was used to detect the SIRT1 activity. Bioluminescence assay was used to detect the ATP content. Results Compared with the control group, resveratrol (0. 5 μmol/L) preconditioning significantly increased the survival rates after the single and double OGD (al P < 0. 001), ATP content (al P = 0. 004), SIRT1 activity (single: P = 0. 001; double: P = 0. 002), and the expression levels of SIRT1 (single: P = 0. 029; double: P = 0. 023) and phospho-AMPK (al P = 0. 001). Conclusions Resveratrol has the neuroprotective effect for the first and double OGD cortical neurons. Its mechanism may be associated with upregulating the SIRT1/AMPK signaling pathways and decreasing the energy requirements.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the tendency of bacterial distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in ICU,then instruct clinical application of antibiotics reasonably.METHODS The identification of bacteria,isolated from patients in ICU from Jan 2005 to Dec 2006,and antibiotic susceptibility by ATB expression were used.RESULTS A total of 1197 pathogens strains were isolated,Gram-negative bacilli,Gram-postive cocci and fungi accounted for 64.2%,19.6% and 15.8%,respectively.The most common pathogens of them were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(22.1%).Except Escherichia coli(40%),the rate of the ESBL-producing strains of Serratia marcescens,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae were higher than 70%.The most common pathogens of Gram-postive cocci were Staphylococcus.Meticillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus accounted for 93.8%.Mainly pathogenic bacteria were multi-resistant to some antibiotics.There were 189 strains fungi.And all the fungi were sensitive to amphotericin B,fluconazole and ketoconazole.CONCLUSIONS The infection and multi-drug resistance of pathogens are serious in ICU.It′s important and urgent to carry out surveillance of bacterial resistance for appropriately using antibiotics.

Objective To investigate the effects of arsenic trioxide(As2O3) on the cell proliferation and apoptosis of C6 glioma cells in vitro.Methods The C6 glioma cells were treated by 1,3,5 μ mol/L of As2O3 with different duration and observed under the microscope and electromicroscope.The viability of C6 glioma cells was examined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay,and cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by flow cytometry.Results After treatment of 1,3,5 μ mol/L As2O3,C6 glioma cells were inhibited obviously with a dose- and time-dependent manner (P ＜0.05) by MTT.During flow cytometry,more increasing apoptotic cells were found in different concentration As2O3.Characteristic morphological changes were observed in As2O3 intervention by transmission election microscopy including cell shrinkage,physaliphore,nuclear condensation and apoptosis and so on.Conclusion As2O3 can inhibit the cell proliferation and induce the apoptosis of C6 glioma cells.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of ketoconazole on the pharmacokinetic (PK) behaviors of midazolam and its metabolite through intranasal and intragastric(ig) routes in rats. METHODS Twenty-four rats were evenly divided into 4 groups. Two groups of rats were administrated singly with midazolam (1 mg?kg-1) through intranasal or ig route. The other two groups were concomitant with CYP3A inhibitor,ketoconazole(30 mg?kg-1),midazolam(1 mg?kg-1)through the same two routes. Blood samples were collected from different time points. Plasma concentration of midazolam and 1′-hydroxymidazolam was determined. Major pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and statistical tests were performed by using t test. RESULTS Tmax was about 2 and 25 min for rats administered singly with midazolam via intranasal or ig routes,respectively and AUC was 296 and 179 μg?L-1?h, respectively. When concomitant with ketoconazole,AUC increased to 2.1 and 3.3 folds the original value for intranasal and ig routes,respectively. However,the Tmax value of midazolam via intranasally didn′t change after being coadministrated with ketoconazole,but Tmax increased to 1.14 h via ig. CONCLUSION Compared with administration via ig,intranasal route administrated midazolam displays significant advantages of faster absorption and higher exposure,which are vital for the first aid. Concomitant with CYP3A inhibitor and midazolam via intranasal route,the absorption speed is not affected,but with the metabolism blocked,the systemic exposure is greatly elevated. While via ig,both absorption speed and metabolism are inhibited. The dose should be cut down or the dosing interval increased in clinic practice in this concomitant situation.
