ObjectiveTo explore the effect of personality and psychosocial factors on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).MethodsPersonality and psychological status of 46 IBS patients and 32 healthy individuals were evaluated with Eysenck Personality Questionaire (EPQ), Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) and Life Events Scale (LES).ResultsIn EPQ, E (extroversion-introversion) scores of IBS group were lower than those of control group; N (neuroticism) scores of IBS group were significantly higher than those of control group (P<0.01). In SCL-90, the scores of somatization, compulsion, anxiety, depression and etc. were higher than those of control group (P<0.05). The frequency of meeting negative life events, the quantity of stimulus of meeting negative life events and the total quantity of stimulus of meeting life events of IBS patients within one year until episode were significantly higher than those of control group (P<0.01).ConclusionPersonality psychological characteristics and life events before illness are associated with the morbidity of IBS.

Objective Severe bronchial stricture due to endobronchial tuberculosis is often accompanied by complex complication,such as obstructiv pneumonia,destroyed lung and bronchiectasis.Its treatment is very diffucult.The present report is to investigate and analyze the indication and efficacy of surgical treatment of bronchial stricture due to severe endobronchial tuberculosis.Methods Reviewed the clinico-pathological records documenting the surgical outcomes in 81 bronchial stricture due to severe endobronchial tuberculosis who underwent lobectomy or pneumonectomy enrolled in our hospital between January 1990 and December 2010.There were 29 male and 52 female.Mean age was(36 ± 12) years (ranged 16-66 years).The three most common reasons of surgery were bronchial stricture accompanied by pulmonary atelectasis,destroyed lung and bronchiectasis(76 cases,93.8％).79 cases had elective operation,whereas one patients required emergency surgery.Pueumonectomy in 51,lobectomy in 16,sleeve resection in 11,segmental resection in 2,and exploratory thoracotomy in 1.If frozen pathological examination showed that endobronchial tuberculosis remained in the bronchial stump,it was covered with muscle flaps,including intercostal muscle flap in 6 cases,latissimus dorsi muscle flap in 5 cases,serratus anterior muscle flap in 5 cases.The mean operative time was 3.2 h (range between 2 h and 5.5 h) and the blood loss averaged 546 ml (range between 100ml and 4 000 ml).The post operative hospital stay averaged(12 ±8)days.Results No intraoperative or early postoperative death occurred.Nine patients developed complications,including BPF in 2,pulmonary infection in 2,empyema in 1,hemorragic shock in 1,hemothorax in 1,incision infection in 1,chylothorax in 1.All 9 cases recovered well after treatment.Pathological examination showed that tuberculosis bronchial remained in the brinchial stump in 13 cases.Neither BPF nor empyema occurred in all the 13 cases.Multivariate analysis revealed that destroyed lung was significant risk factor of postoperative complication.There were 3 late deaths.Five year survival rate was 96.2％.Conclusion Surgical treatment is still the recommeded treatment modatity for bronchial stricture caused by endobronchial tuberculosis due to its excellent results.It should be performed in time when the drug and intraluninal treatment were no effect for avoiding of being progeressed into destroyed lung.

Objective To evaluate negative lymph node count (NLNC) in prediction of prognosis of T3 gastric cancer after radical resection.Method 214 T3 patients of radical gastrectomy with complete clinical and follow-up data between Jan 2003 to Dec 2007 were enrolled.Survival was determined by the Kaplan-Metier method and univariate analysis was done by Log-rank test,Multivariate analysis was performed using the COX proportional hazard regression model.-2loglikelihood value and the hazard ratio (HR) value were used to compared the value of number of lymph node-negative (NLNC) staging and pN staging and lymph node metastasis rate (MLR) in gastric cancer prognosis evaluation.Results Univariate analysis showed that,pN stage (x2 =31.664),MLR stage (x2 =34.123),tumor size (x2 =5.025),type of differentiation (x2 =5.993),Borrmann classification (x2 =5.401),NLNC stage (x2 =37.256) were related to survival (P ＜ 0.05).COX multivariate analysis showed that-2loglikelihood of pN staging is 1 336.761,HR value is 1.464,-2loglikelihood value of MRL staging is 1 335.821,HR value is 1.441.-2loglikelihood value of NLNC staging is 1 326.902,HR value is 1.725.The N0 and N1 staging prognosis in different NLNC staging was significant (P =0.008,P =0.014).Conclusions Sufficient number of negative lymph node prolongs survival and reduces the risk of early recurrence in advanced gastric cancer.

Based on the investigation of a hospital's grants during 2004-2005 and the authorized during 2002-2005 (385 in total), we tried to find the trends and bias of clinical sciences at present. We analysed on the types of grants (clinical or basic), research objects, experimental methods, discipline involved, modes of cooperation, and background of applicants. A close connection between research and clinical trial, interdisciplinary study, patient-centered practice and international competitions are becoming more and more important. To meet the needs of clinical research, policies and devotions such as technical platforms are needed.

The paper is aimed to establish a method of residue analysis for thiamethoxam and to study its degradation dynamic and final residue and its standard of safe application of thiamethoxam on Lonicera japonica. Samples extracted with methanol by ultrasonication were purified with dichloromethane by liquid-liquid extraction and SPE column and analysed by HPLC-UV. The results showed that average rate was 84.91%-94.44% and RSD 1.74%-4.96% with addition of thiamethoxam in respectively diverse concentration, which meets inspection requirement of pesticide residue. Two kinds of dosages of thiamethoxam were treated- varying from recommended dosage (90 g x hm(-2)) to high dosage (135 g x hm(-2)), Results of two years test showed that thiamethoxam was degraded more than 90% seven days after application and the half - life period of thiamethoxam was 1.54-1.66 d. The digestion rate of thiamethoxam was fast in the L. japonica. The recommended MRL of thiamethoxam in the L. japonica is 0.1 mg x kg(-1), the dosage of 25% thiamethoxam WDG from 90-135 g x hm(-2) is sprayed less than three times a year on L. japonica and 14 days is proposed for the safety interval of the last pesticide application's and harvest's date.
