This paper reviewed the existing literatures of executive function in obsessive -compulsive disorder (OCD) patients, and critically examined four neurocognitive tests in the recent ten years' studies, including stroop task, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test(WCST),London tower, and Trail-making test. In addition, we discuss the problems occurred in the past experiments, and put forward suggestions for further studies.

The selective toxicity of the mitochondria-specific cationic fluorescent dye rhodamine 123 (Rh-123) on HeLa cells in culture was studied. In this report, we demonstrate that with continuous exposure, Rh-123 markedly inhibited the growth of HeLa cells but had little effect on normal human kidney fibroblasts. With continuously exposed to Rh-123, the growth rate, colony forming ability, and mitotic index of HeLa cells were decreased. The mechanism of toxicity of Rh-123 on HeLa ceils was investigated by EM and enzyme cytochemistry stain. The mitochondria of carcinoma cells were the main targets for the inhibitory action of Rh-123, since they selectively accumulated the dye. At the dosage of Rh-123 which was toxic to HeLa cells, the structure and function of mitochondria were disrupted, as the mitochondriarelated enzymes, i. e., ATPase, LDH, and SDH were inhibited. The possible mechanism of the action of Rh-123 on HeLa cells is briefly discussed.

Objective: to develop the peptic ulcer (PU) symptoms self rating scale (PUSRS) and study the validation of this scale. Methods: The PUSRS was filled by 151 PU patients, 118 males and 30 females (3 lost gender information, aged 38.61?14.99), which were recruited from 18 gastroenterology departments. 30 PU patients were engaged in the test-retest study. 40 PU patients and 30 gastritis patients joined the discriminate validation study. Results: Two factors, pain factor (PF) and dyspepsia factor(DF), were found by exploratory factor analysis. Reliabilities of the two factors are 0.786 (PF) and 0.753(DF). Validation studies showed that PU patients have significantly higher PUSRS total score (P

Objective: To develop the Chinese mood adjective check list (CMACL) and study the validation of this scale. Methods: The CMACL was filled by 1010 subjects aged 21.0 ? 7.4, 507 males and 464 females (39 lost gender information), which were randomly split into two samples after balancing the gender for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). 232 middle school students divided into five groups according to their grades were engaged in the test-retest study at the first to fourth and sixth weeks. 34 volunteers finished the CMACL and self-rating depression scale (SDS) and 30 college students joined the validation study to test the correlation between the CMACL and state trait anxiety inventory. Results: A four-factor model was found by EFA and confirmed by CFA, which has the following dimensions: Fidget(F)?Happy and excited(HE), Pain and sad(PS),Angry and hate(AH). 30 items were also left in the CMACL after the modification(GFI=0.902,AGFI=0.883,NFI=0.884,TLI=0.931,CFI=0.937,RMSEA=0.046). Reliabilities of the four factors are higher than 0.80. Validation studies showed: (1) SDS total score is significantly positive-correlated with F (P

OBJECTIVE:To study the preparation of fluconazole eyedrops as well as its quality control.METHODS:The content of fluconazole in eyedrops was determined with HPLC.The quality control of eyedrops has done in accordance with ChP.RESULTS:The average recovery was100.4%,RSD=0.54%(n=5).CONCLUSION:The formula of this preparation is reasonable with simple and convenient technology.Moreover,its quality control is easy to handle.

Objective To study the curative effect of major aphthous ulcer using povidone-iodine,H_2O_2 asso- ciated with levamisole liniment.Methods The RAU patients were divided into 2 groups randomly.The patients of curative group were instructed to use povidone-iodine,H_2O_2 and levamisole liniment;The control group were in- structed to take metronidazole,antibiotics,compound vitamin B and vitamin C.Then the patients were observed peri- odically.Results The success rate of curative group was 85 % and the control group was 55 %.The difference had statistical significance(P＜0.01).Conclusion Treatment of major aphthous ulcer using povidone-iodine,H_2O_2 and levamisole liniment is effective.

Objective To analyze the expression levels of matrix metallo proteinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metallo proteinase-9 (MMP-9) in serum of patients with esophageal cancer,and to analyze the interrelations among MMP-2,MMP-9 and clinicopathologic characteristics of esophageal cancer.Methods The levels of serum MMP-2,MMP-9 from 60 patients with esophageal cancer were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The interrelations among MMP-2,MMP-9 and clinicopathologic characteristics of esophageal cancer including age,gender,histological type,whether or not lymph nodes metastasis and TNM staging were analyzed.Results The levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in control group were 61.31 ng/ml and 87.67 ng/ml,the levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in patients with esophageal cancer were 121.66 ng/ml and 169.73 ng/ml.The levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were significantly higher in patients with esophageal cancer than that of general population (t =3.015,P =0.007; t =2.037,P =0.04).The level of MMP-2 was significantly associated with whether or not lymph node metastasis (t =2.150,P =0.04) and clinical staging (t =2.186,P=0.03).The level of MMP-9 was significantly associated with whether or not lymph node metastasis (t =2.390,P =0.02) and clinical staging (t =2.149,P =0.03).The levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 have no reference to age,gender and histological type (all P＞0.05).Conclusion MMP-2 and MMP-9 may correlate with tumor invasion and metastasis in patients with esophageal cancer.

Objective To investigate the expression of apoptosis regulating protein Bcl-2 and Bax,and the spontaneous apoptotic index(AI) in malignant mesothelioma,and their relationship to the survival time of patients.Methods Hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical stainings were used for the sections of paraffin embedded tissues of 79 specimens of malignant mesothelioma.The terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) was used to identify the apoptotic tumor cells.Results The age of the patients with malignant mesothelioma ranged from 11 to 79 years.The peak incidence of malignant mesothelioma was at the age of 40-50 years.The ratio of male to female was 1.47∶1.The survival time of the 79 cases was between 5 and 160 months,and the medial survival time was 23 months.According to histological pictures,these tumors were diagnosed as epithelioid type(51 cases),mixed type(8 cases) and sarcomatous type(20 cases).The tumor spontaneous apoptotic index(AI) was 0.14%-6.9%.The survival time of the patients with higher AI was significantly shorter than those with lower AI(P

Objective: To study the relationship among shame, persona li ty and mental health, and to establish a structural model of them Meth o d: Structural equation modeling was used for the data from 178 college s tudents (including 86 male and 92 female, mean age 21), who were tested with SCL -90, EPQ-R Short Scale (EPQ-RS)and shame scale Result: A theor etical model was established for the relationship of personality, shame and ment al health It wa s also confirmed through model comparison that shame has a part-mediating role b etween personality and mental health

Objective: To study social anxiety proneness in college students and factors having influence on it Method: 200 college students were assessed with Social Anxiety Inventory, Shame-Proneness Scale, EQQ-short form, Coping Style Questionnaire, Beck Depression Scale, and Trait Anxiety Scale Result: Social anxiety of college students was influenced by shame-proneness, psychoticism and extroversion of personality Students with high social anxiety proneness were also more easily ashamed by their own behaviors Lack of negative coping styles also contributed to their proneness Low social anxiety proneness could be explained partially by three factors: psychoticism and extroversion personality, self-appraised trait anxiety Conclusion: Shame-proneness, psychoticism and extroversion personality are main factors having influence on social anxiety proneness Positive self-evaluation and coping style are helpful in reducing social anxiety
