Objective: To investigate the relationship between attributional style and personality. Methods: We measured undergraduates with Attributional Style Questionnaire(ASQ)and Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire(16-PF).Results: Students with high-sensitivity, high-insecurity, high-tension, anxiety, not tough poise and low marks in Mental Health are apt to have negative attributional style. These personalities are the nuclear personalities of negative attributional style. Students with high-suspiciousness, high-insecurity,anxiety and low marks in Academic Achievement and Adjustment are apt to attribute fatefully. Conclusion: The nuclear personalities for negative attributional style are high-sensitivity, high-insecurity, high-tension, anxiety, not tough poise and low marks in Mental Health.

Abstract?AIM: To discuss clinical efficacy and safety of 10g/L atropine with short covering for children with amblyopia.?METHODS: Eighty -eight children ( 88 eyes ) with amblyopia, staying in hospital from February 2011 to February 2014 for treatment, were divided into control group ( n =44 ) and observation group ( n =44 ) . The control group only given short covering therapy was observed.Observation group was given 10g/L atropine treatment besides covering.Clinical efficacy, treatment compliance, visual acuity, corrected spherical degree of amblyopia eye and adverse events were observed and compared.?RESULTS:1) After treatment, total effective rate of the observation group was 95% ( 42/44 ) , significantly higher than that of control group ( 80%, 35/44, P<0.05 ); 2 ) excellent compliance rate of the observation group was 95% ( 42/44 ) , significantly higher than that of control group (82%, 36/44, P<0.05);3) visual acuity of the two groups when the disease was first diagnosed was not significantly different (P>0.05), but increased number of lines of vision and corrected spherical degree of amblyopia eye in the observation group were significantly higher (P<0.05);4) in the observation group total rate of adverse events was 9% ( 4/44 ) , significantly lower than that in the control group (23%, 10/44, P<0.05).?CONCLUSION: The combined therapy, 1% atropine with short covering, is effective and safe for amblyopia in children.

Objective To compare the effects on neurobiological factors of attributional retraining group therapy (ARGT) or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) for major depressive disorder (MDD),anxiety disorder (AD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).Methods Outpatients with MDD,AD and OCD were divided into ARGT group (n =63) and SSRI group (n =66) according to the sequence of entering the study.MDD,AD and OCD patients were respectively measured with Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD),Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA),and Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) before and after 8 weeks treatment.All subjects were detected of plasma serotonin,norepinephrine,cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone by radioimmunoassay before and after treatment.Results After treatment,HAMD scores of MDD patients were reduced significantly in both ARGT group (t =18.411,P =0.000) and SSRI group (t =20.092,P =0.000) ; HAMA scores of GAD patients were reduced significantly in both ARGT group (t =13.989,P=0.000) and SSRI group (t=15.815,P=0.000) ;Y-BOCS scores of OCD patients were reduced significantly in both ARGT group (t =5.465,P =0.000)and SSRI group (t =4.792,P =0.000).In ARGT group,MDD (t =3.145,P =0.006),AD (t =2.785,P =0.012) and OCD patients (t =2.877,P =0.011) decreased plasma cortisol concentrations significantly.In SSRI group,MDD (t =-2.923,P =0.010) and OCD patients (t =-2.301,P =0.035) improved plasma serotonin significantly and MDD patients (t =-2.333,P =0.033) improved plasma norepinephrine significantly.Conclusion ARGT can modulate plasma cortisol level.SSRI can up-modulate plasma serotonin level.The two therapies take effect by different biological ways.

Objective:To analyze the important controllable factors which affect the glycemic control of diabetes.
Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out to examine the role of relevant characteristics in glycemic control by a sampling investigation of 430 diabetic patients in Hunan, China. A questionnaire was designed for personal interviews to collect data. Univariate regression analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to evaluate the effects of various factors on glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) control.
Results:hTe level of HbA1c in 430 patients was (8.7±2.6)%, and the value in 34%patients among them was ≤7.0%. Base on univariate regression analysis some factors were associated with good HbA1c control, including age, diabetic education, self monitoring of blood glucose, knowledge of blood sugar control standard, living environment, and self-owned glucometer. However, the upgraded treatment was associated with poor control. Based on multiple linear regression analysis, the ifrst four factors mentioned above were protective factors for HbA1c while upgraded treatment was risk factor for HbA1c.
Conclusion:Knowledge of blood sugar control standard, diabetic education and self monitoring of blood glucose are important controllable factors for better glycemic control of diabetes.

Vitreoscilla Hemoglobin(VHb), with the function of increasing the growth of and product yield by a heterologous host, has been widely use in the area of fermentation, environment protection, transgenic animal and plant, recombinant protein expression, etc. Fusion protein of VHb with other enzyme or protein can enhance activity and stability of the enzyme or isolation efficiency of the protein. The reconstitution of VHb will be helpful to obtain ‘novel’ proteins which have better activity.

miRNAs were discovered less than a decade ago, and have emerged as important regulators of gene expression in mammals. A large number of miRNAs have been identified to be located within the intronic regions of protein-encoding genes(host genes) and called intronic miRNAs. The intronic miRNAs may play a key role in regulating the expression and function of their host genes due to the fact that most of them are co-expressed with the host genes. In this paper, the recent advances on the research on potential relationship between intronic miRNAs and their host genes are reviewed.

This study taking gestodene (GEST) as a model, investigated the factors affecting reservoir-type intravaginal ring (IVR)'s drug release. This paper reported a gestodene intravaginal ring of reservoir design, comprising a gestodene silicone elastomer core encased in a non-medicated silicone sheath, separately manufactured by reaction injection moulding at 80 degrees C and heating vulcanization at 130 degrees C is reported. The test investigated the factors affecting drug release through a single variable method, taking the drug release rates of 21 days as standards. When changing the thickness of the controlling sheath outside, the ratio of the first day of drug release and mean daily release (MDR), named the relatively burst effect, is closing to 1 with the thickness of controlling sheath increasing, while the 1.25 mm sheath corresponding to 1.04 controlled the burst release effectively; a positive correlation (r = 0.992 2) existed between the average drug release (Q/t) and drug loading (A) within a certain range. The C6-165 controlling sheath with high solubility of GEST is easier to achieve controlled release of the drug; GEST crystalline power is more effective to implement controlled release of drugs among difficent states of the drug. A 1/4 fractional segment core gives a relatively burst effect of 1.76, while the 1/1 and 1/2 are 1.93 and 1.87 separately, at the same drug loading, concluding that use of a fractional segment core would allow development of a suitable GEST reservoir IVR. In summary, GEST reservoir-type IVR could be adjusted by the thickness of controlling sheath, the loading of drug, the material properties of controlling sheath, the dispersion state of drug, the additive composition and structure of intravaginal ring, to control the drug release behavior and achieve the desired drug release rate.
