Objective To test the validity of the stress-cognition vulnerability-model of depression in Chinese undergraduates.Methods 647 undergraduate students finished the Chinese version of 6 scales in time one.Cognitive Style Questionnaire(CSQ),Response Styles Questionnaire(RSQ-SF),Self-Esteem Questionnaire(SEQ),Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale(DAS),General Social and Academic Hassles Scale for Students(GSASHS),Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale(CES-DA)follow-up assessment in 1 month later,the General Social and Academic Hassles Scale for Students(GSASHS)scale and Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D)scale were completed.Then,vulnerability factors for depression symptoms were used to predict depression symptoms by Multiple Hierarchical Regression(MHR).Path analysis and structural equation model(SEM)were used to explore integrated vulnerability-stress model of depression in Chinese undergraduates.Results Vulnerability-stress interaction was entered into regression equation.The results showed that the vulnerability-stress interaction provided incremental predictive validity to depressive.Symptoms path analysis showed that negative cognition→rumination→depression was a important pathways to cause depression(β=-0.31,P<0.01).The structural equation model for integrated vulnerability-stress model of depression analysis indicated the fit index:GFI =0.95,CFI=0.94,IFI=0.94,RMSEA=0.085.Conclusion A cognition vulnerability-stress medels of depression in Chinese undergraduates was provided and to be confirmed.The rumination was a important mediated variable.

OBJECTIVE:To clarify the bio-transformation form of apigenin in rats,and to speculate its possible metabolic path-way. METHODS:Rats were divided into blank group and medication group(apigenin 200 mg/kg,i.g.)with 6 rats in each group. Urine and feces samples were collected from 2 groups within 24 h after medication. After corresponding treatment,urine and feces samples were analyzed and detected by HPLC-IT-TOF-MSn under cation mode and anion mode. RESULTS:9 metabolites were iden-tified in urine sample of rats from medication group,i.e. 2,3-double bond reduction of apigenin (U1,U7,U8,U9),bonded to glucuronic acid(U2,U3,U4),bonded to sulphate(U5,U6,U7,U8,U9)and bonded to glucose(U2). 4 metabolites were iden-tified in feces sample of rats from medication group,i.e. 2,3-double bond reduction of apigenin(F3),bonded to glucuronic acid (F2)and bonded to glucose(F1). CONCLUSIONS:Apigenin mainly exists in form of prototype drug in rats. The reduction hap-pens on 2,3-double bond by the intestinal bacteria,and the product of apigenin boned to glucuronic acid or glucose can be formed when excreting in intestinal tract and rats in vivo,while the product of apigenin boned to sulphate can be formed only when excret-ing in rats in vivo.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of thoracic cavity perfusion with cisplatin combined with mannan peptide in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with malignant pleural effusion.Methods 47 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with malignant pleural effusion with a median age of 50 years old (41-70 years old) were enrolled.Pleural effusion occurred at 38.5 months on average after diagnosis,unilateral effusion was seen in 45 patients (95.7 ％),bilateral effusion was seen in 2 patients (4.2 ％).Cisplatin combined with mannan peptide was administered through pleural puncture by PICC center vein pipe after drainage.Data of survival complications and response to the treatment were reviewed.Results 17 patients (36.1％) had a complete remission (CR),21 patients (44.6 ％) had partial remission (PR),and the total remission rate (CR+ PR) was 80.9 ％.The median survival time was 10.5 months.Patients with pleural fluid pH ≥ 7.2,glucose ≥ 60 mg/L,and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) ＜ 600 U/L showed association with good efficacy,the efficacy rates were 85.0 ％ (34/40),86.5 ％ (32/37),89.5 ％ (34/38),the median survival time were 11.5,12.0,12.5 months.Pleural fluid pH ＜ 7.2,glucose ＜ 60 mg/L,and LDH ≥ 600 U/L showed association with poor efficacy,the efficacy rates were 42.8 ％ (3/7),50.0 ％ (5/10),44.4 ％ (4/9),the median survival time were 6.5,6.5,6.0 months (P ＜ 0.05).The curative effect of the patients with bone metastasis and (or) pulmonary metastasis without liver metastasis was more similar with that of the patients with liver metastases [(47.0 ％ (16/34) vs 57.1％ (4/7),x2 =0.01,P =0.29].But median survival time had significant difference (11.0 vs 6.0 months,P =0.02).The Cox multi-factor analysis confirmed that the LDH value of effusion was an independent factor as prognosis evaluation.Major side effects of the treatment included fever,chest pain,nausea and vomiting.Conclusion Thoracic cavity perfusion using cisplatin combined with mannan peptide is effective in the treatment of malignant pleural effusion in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with pleural effusion,with relatively low toxicity.LDH value is a predictive factor for survival.The patients with liver metastases appeare poor median survival time.

Objective To detect the serum level of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP5b) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) before and after infliximab treatment and analyze the relevance between TRACP-5b and activity indexes of RA.The effect of different medicines on bony erosion in RA and its possible mechanism were explored.Methods Patients were divided into two groups:16 patients were treated with inffiximab for 24 weeks (group 1 ),25 patients were treated with MTX for 24 weeks (group 2).The core indicators of RA activity were evaluated.Ranked test,grouped design and matched t test was used to examine the quantity data between groups,while numerate data was analyzed with qui-square test.Correlation between data was tested by Spearmen's and Pearson's tests.RestltsThe levels of TRACP-5b in patients with X-ray stagesⅠ ,Ⅱ ,Ⅲ ,Ⅳ were elevated at the baseline.The levels of TRACP-5b in phase Ⅲ and Ⅳ were [(3.34±1.07) U/L] and[(4.05±0.25) U/L] respectively,higher (P＜0.05) than those in phase Ⅰ[(1.69±0.48) U/L].At week 0,week 12,and week 24,the serum levels of TRACP-5b in group 1 were(3.07±1.32),(2.72±1.18),(2.16±1.09) U/L respectively,while the levels in week 12,and 24 were significantly lower than those of week 0(P＜0.05).A significant decrease of serum TRACP-5b level in group 1[(2.16±1.09 ) U/L]when compared to group two[ (3.05±0.93) U/L] after 24 weeks.TRACP=5b level was positively correlated with the course of disease (r=0.313,P=0.043 ),HAQ(r=0.443,P=0.007).Conclusion Infliximab can reduce TRACP-5b level in RA and inhibit inflammatory bone loss.TRACP-5b can be used to evaluate the efficacy of biological agents in treating RA.

Objective To observe the time-course expression of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) in cerebral cortex after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods The TBI model of mouse was established. The mice were divided in 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 3 d, 7 d after TBI, shamand control groups. The permeability of the blood brain barrier was evaluated by measuring the extravasation of Evans blue (EB) dye. The expression of Z O-1 in cerebral cortex in the injured area was detected by western blotting and im-munohistochemistry. Results The extravasation of EBdye of injured cortex gradually increased from 1 h, peaked at 1-3 d and approximately decreased to normal at 7 d after TBI. western blotting revealed that the expression of Z O-1 gradually decreased after 1 h, was at the lowest at 1-3 d, and then significantly increased after 7 d but was still lower than that of normal and shamgroups. The result of immunohisto-chemistry showed that Z O-1 had strong expression in vessel of normal cortex, gradually decreased after TBI, and almost disappeared at 3 d after TBI and gradually recovered to normal level later. Conclusion The expression of Z O-1 in the injured cortex after TBI initially decreases and then increases. The nega-tive correlation between Z O-1 expression and EBextravasation after TBI could be used as a newindi-cator for wound age estimation.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of KGF-2 mutants on radiation-induced intestinal mucosal injury.Methods Specific pathogen free (SPF) female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 4 groups, which were treated with/without KGF2 mutant and/or bone marrow cell transplantation.All the 4 groups were radiated with one-time whole bodyγ-ray exposure of 12 Gy.Also one untreated group was included as control.The therapeutic effect of recombi-nant human KGF-2 mutants on radiation-induced intestinal mucosal injury was analyzed by the survival rate at the 30th day, the pathological change and the apoptosis as well as autophagy status of small intestine at 72 hours after exposure.Results After irradiation, all the mice in the untreated group died within 9 days while the mice treated with KGF-2 mutant combined with bone marrow cell transplantation showed a 70%survival rate at the 30th day.We also found that intestinal mucosa of the mice in this group had a more intact structure, a higher level of autophagy and a lower level of apoptosis via HE staining and immunohistochemistry.Conclusion KGF-2 mutant has a significant therapeutic effect on radiation-induced intestinal mucosal injury.

Objective To explore the expression of protease activated receptors (PARs) on human monocytes. Methods Flow cytometry and RT - PCR was used to detect the expressions of PARs on human monocytes that purified by MACS. Results FACS analysis showed that monocytes expressed PAR - 1 , PAR - 3 , PAR - 4, but not PAR - 2.RT - PCR revealed that monocytes expressed PAR - 1 and PAR -3, but not PAR -2 and PAR -4 mRNA. Conclusion PARs is expressed on human monocyte cells,which may facilitate further investigation of the potential functions of PARs on monocytes.

Objective To explore the relationship between histological chorioamnionitis(HC),fetal vasculitis(FV)and the morbidity of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(RDS).Methods Three hundred and forty-seven cases of infants at the gestational ages of 28 +0 to 31 +6 weeks who were admitted to the Neo-natology Department of our hospital from October 2009 to June 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into four groups according to the occurrence of HC and FV,namely,HC positive group and HC negative group,FV positive group and FV negative group.The patients in the HC positive group were further divided into FV positive group and FV negative group according to the occurrence of FV.The morbidity of RDS among above-mentioned groups was compared.Results The clinical characteristics including propor-tion of male,gestational age,birth weight,cesarean delivery,antenatal corticosteroid use,gestational hyperten-sion,gestational diabetes and cholestasis of pregnancy showed no statistically significant difference among all the groups(P 〉0.05).The incidence of RDS in the HC positive group(145 cases)was 49.6%(72 cases), which was significantly lower than that in the HC negative group(67.3%,126 /202,P 〈0.05).The incidence of RDS in FV positive group(64 cases)was 42.2%(27 cases),which was significantly lower than that in FV negative group(63.3%,179 /283,P 〈0.05)In the HC positive group(145 cases),the incidence of RDS in FV positive group (64 cases)was 42.2% (27 cases),and 55.6% (45 cases)in FV negative group (81 cases),which showed no significant difference(P ﹦0.01 ).Conclusion (1 )HC or FV can reduce the incidence rate of RDS in premature infants.(2)HC combined FV cannot furtherly reduce the incidence of RDS.

Purpose To investigate the serum prostate specific antigen( PSA)feature of high grade prostatic intraepithe1ia1 neop1asia ( HGPIN)patients,and the association of the number of cores positive for HGPIN on initia1 biopsy and the risk of cancer deve1opment in second biopsy. Methods 492 cases of patients with suspicious prostate cancer were schedu1ed for transrecta1 u1trasound prostatic biopsy with an 8-core temp1ate. In the first biopsy,186 cases of patients with PCa,34 cases of patients with iso1ated HGPIN( on1y one core invo1ved with HGPIN)and 13 cases of patients with extensive HGPIN( two or more cores invo1ved with HGPIN),64 cases of pa-tients with LGPIN,195 cases of patients with BPH. The va1ues of PSA were ana1yzed and compared within these groups. In patients with extensive HGPIN or iso1ated HGPIN we proposed a repeat 8-core biopsy after 6 months independent of serum PSA 1eve1. The same measure was app1ied for patients diagnosed as LGPIN or BPH in the first biopsy with accompanying increase or persistent e1evation of serum PSA 1eve1. The incidence of PCa was ana1yzed and compared within these groups. Results The serum PSA 1eve1s were no sig-nificant1y different between LGPIN and BPH(P>0. 05),between iso1ated HGPIN and LGPIN(P>0. 05),and between iso1ated HG-PIN and BPH(P>0. 05). The serum PSA 1eve1s were significant1y different between extensive HGPIN and LGPIN(P<0. 05),be-tween extensive HGPIN and BPH(P<0. 05),and between extensive HGPIN and iso1ated HGPIN(P<0. 05). In the second biopsy, the incidence of PCa in patients with extensive HGPIN was 38. 48%,that in patients with iso1ated HGPIN was 9. 68%,that in patients with LGPIN was 12. 50%,and that in patients with BPH was 12. 20%. Conclusions The features of PSA in patients with iso1ated HGPIN are simi1ar to BPH,PSA 1eve1 in patients with extensive HGPIN were between PCa and BPH,and patients with extensive HG-PIN have a higher incidence of PCa in second biopsy than iso1ated HGPIN and BPH.
