BACKGROUND: Nervousness, anxiety and depression are important inducing factors of migraine, while nervousness, anxiety and depression are closely correlated with the unreasonable belief and incorrect strategy. Medicine therapy is the principal method in the treatment of migraine at present, but it cannot change the unreasonable belief of the patients and thereby to reducethe occurrence of the inducing factors of headache.OBJECTIVE: To observe the near term and long term therapeutic effects of medicine therapy and rational emotional behavior therapy(REBT) to provide a safer and more effective intervention for the patients with migraine and thereby to improve their long term quality of life(QOL).DESIGN: An observatory comparative study based on patients with migraine as subjects and healthy population as controls.SETTING: A psychological consultation clinic of a municipal hospital(has been canceled now).PARTICIPANTS: Totally 86 cases of migraine including 34 males and 52females aged between 16 and 48 years old(means of 35 years old) with a course of disease between 2 and 11 years were selected from the Psychological Consultation Clinic of the 289 Hospital between March 1999 and October 2001. All 86 cases were randomly divided into REBT group and medicine group with 43 cases each. There was no significant difference of age, gender,course of the disease, situation of the disease, and education background between two groups. Another 30 healthy individuals including 12 males and 18 females with a mean age of 36 years old were selected in control group.METHODS: REBT was applied for patients in REBT group. Patients of medicine group received 50-100 mg/day of Amitriptyline and 60 mg/day of nimodipine through oral administration. Patients received 12 weeks of therapy followed by 24 weeks of observation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Therapeutic scale score on migraine (TSSM), before and after migraine-correlated potential(P300) and symptoms checklist 90 (SCL-90) scores were compared.RESULTS: SCL-90 total points of two groups of patients were significantly higher than that of control group( P < 0.05); after 12 weeks of therapy,TSSM, SCL-90 total points and points of major factors of two groups of patients were significantly lower compared with the situations before therapy( P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between two therapy groups; on the 12th week after therapy, SCL-90 total points, points for major factors and TSSM, and P300 latency of REBT group were almost as the same as that after 12 weeks of therapy and the wave amplitude of P300 significantly elevated; owever, the differences in SCL-90 total points, points of major factors, and the TSSM in medicine group were significant compared with that after 12 weeks of therapy( P < 0.05) . There was significant difference at the same period between two therapy groups ( P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: REBT can reduce the attacks of migraine, decrease TSSM,and has similar therapeutic effects to medicine group. Simultaneously, it can ameliorate the cognitive disorder, change the unreasonable belief of the patients, and improve the strategy to cope with the disease; hence its long term therapeutic effect is better than medicine therapy.

Objective To investigate the effects of gemcetabine and LY294002 monotherapy or combination on the proliferation and poptosis of pancreatic cancer cell lines BxPc-3 and MiaPaCa-2.Methods Cell proliferation and poptosis were detected by MTT and Annexin V-FTTC,respectively.Results Both gemcetabine and LY294002 could inhabit the proliferation of the two cell lines.Their inhibitory effects were increased accompanied with increased drug concentrations and the cell survival rates was negatively correlated with logarithmic of the drug concentrations (r<-0.95,P<0.01).The inhibitory effects of gemcetabine and LY294002 to the BxPc-3 proliferation were significantly stronger than to the MiaPaCa-2(P<0.05).For BxPc-3 and MiaPaCa-2,the IC50 of gemcetabine were(10.07±1.83),(36.45±2.71)μmol/L(P<0.05),and the IC50 of LY294002 were(7.84±1.48),(17.89±1.98)μmol/L(P<0.05),respectively.Gemcetabine and LY294002 could induce cell apoptosis(P<0.01).Though both the concurrent or consecutive use of these two drugs could promote cell apoptosis,the effect of the concurrent group was significantly stronger(P<0.05).The order of these two drugs in the concurrent group had no significant influence on their effects(P>0.05).Conclusion Both gemcetabine and LY294002 could inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cell lines.Their concurrent application shows a significant inhibitory effect on the cell apoptosis.

Objective To study the relation between the HPV6/18 virus infection and the development of pathological changes of cervix. Methods The number of HPV16/18 DNA copies and the expression rate of HPV16/18 E7 mRNA in the pathological cervix were examined by the quantitative fluorescent PCR combined with pathological diagnosis and immunohistochemistry staining. Results The HPV16 infection rates in chronic cervicitis group were much lower (7.4%) than that in the cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) groups and the cervical cancer group (69.6% and 72.7%), respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the difference of HPV16 DNA copies was not significant between the chronic cervicitis group and CIN groups. In contrast to the above mentioned result, the number of HPV DNA copies between the CIN groups and the cervical cancer group was significantly different. The HPV16 E7 gene expression rates in CIN Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and cervical cancer groups were 0,37.5%,42.9%,63.6%, respectively. Conclusion Ins more common than that with HPV18. The number of HPV16 DNA copies in cervical cancer tissues is markedly higher than that in CIN Ⅱ, Ⅲ groups. The HPV16 E7 mRNA expression is significantly increased in the cervical cancer, and it is more closely correlated to this pathological changes. The quantitative fluorescent PCR can be used to reflect the activity of HPV, and it is a useful method for the screening examination of HPV and for the early diagnosis and treatment of cervical caner.

Objective To investigate current status and problems of coagulation factor Ⅷ and Ⅸ assay in domestic laboratories so as to provide the reference for implementing the standardization and quality improvement.Methods A questionnaire survey was carried out in 76 laboratories,and quality control materials were distributed to 54 laboratories for activity assay.The questionnaire information was analyzed statistically.Test results of quality control materials were classified into three groups according to the reagents and the ranked grading analysis were used to evaluate the performance.Results This research was investigative study.The amount of sample was less than 30 per month in 72% (52/72)of laboratories.The frequencies of calibration were different,and 33% (24/72) of laboratories did not perform calibration in a different assay batch.39% (28/72)of laboratories did not run internal quality control,and about 21% (15/ 72) of laboratories just performed the normal level quality control.Individual laboratories showed a high cumulative CV (> 30%) of intemal quality control.For normal FⅧ and FⅨ control materials,the CV of results were 11.3%-18.2% and 11.3%-17.9% respectively as well as 15.3%-20.3% and 19.5%-21% for abnormal.Of the three groups,the proportions of laboratories which the FⅧ test results out with consensus were18%,24% and 22% as well as 20%,24% and 28% for FⅨ.Conclusions The key requirements for quality control of coagulation factors active assay remain to be addressed and implemented.The repeatability and comparability in some laboratories are not satisfactory to meet the clinical needs.With the purpose of promoting quality improvement,we need to develop guidelines,organize related training and establish a national external quality assessment scheme.
