Objective To study the impact of personality and coping style on postpartum depression.Methods 273 cases of postpartum women were estimated by Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale ( EPDS),NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) and Trait Coping Style Questionnaire (TCSQ). With the SPSS11.5,t-test,correlation analysis and regression analysis were carried out for the collected data. Results 23. 1% of postpartum women suffered from depression. There were significant differences in personality traits and coping styles between postpartum depression group and normal group(P＜ 0. 01 ). There was a significant correlation in depression of postpartum and neuroticism, extraversion ( r = - 0. 409 ～ 0. 824 ), agreeableness of personality traits, coping styles.The personality traits was related to coping styles ( r = 0.260, - 0.445, - 0. 234,0. 375 , - 0.431 ). The extraversion, agreeableness of personality traits, negative coping style and positive coping style entered the regression equation of depression and can explain the 32.9% percent variance. Conclusion The extraversion, agreeableness of personality traits, negative coping style and positive coping style are important factors for postpartum depression.

A bacterium which can effectively degrade LAS (Linear Sodium Alkylbenzenesulfonate) was isolated from washing powder manufacturing effluent and was preliminarily identified as Corynebacterium jeikeium GZ6. The bacterium can degrade LAS up to till 700 mg/L, and the optimum pH, temperature and concentration of LAS are 7.0, 30℃ and 400 mg/L, respectively. The biodegradation rate can reach 98.7% after 24 hours'cultivation in the suitable conditions. Experiments also showed that some heavy metal ions such as Hg2+ , Co2+ , Cd2+ can differently inhibit the degradation of LAS.

ObjectiveTo observe and compare the efficacy of two types of microencapsulated rat islets xenotransplanted into diabetic mice. MethodsThe mice diabetic model made with injecting 3% Streptozotosin through tail vein. Four groups were assigned: control group, naked islet transplantation group, alginate-BaCl2 microencapsulated islet transplantation group, agarose-PSSa microencapsulated islet transplantation group.300 islets were transplanted under the renal envelope of each diabetic mice respectively. ResultsThere were no significant difference in mean level of the blood glucose before transplantation among four groups. One week after transplantation, the respective mean level of the blood glucose in four groups were (7.26±1.56) mmol/L in alginate-BaCl2 microencapsulated islet transplantation group, (7.14±1.04) mmol/L in agarose-PSSa microencapsulated islet transplantation group, (7.42±1.52) mmol/L in naked islet transplantation group and (22.54±1.24) mmol/L in control. There were significant difference between the two encapsulated islet groups and the other two groups. The survived period of the two encapsulated islet transplantation groups were longer than that of the other two groups. The survived period of the alginate-BaCl2 microencapsulated islet transplantation group was longer than that of the agarose-PSSa microencapsulated islet transplantation group (92 d vs 56 d),the same as the time of keeping nomal blood glucose level (76 d vs 41 d). ConclusionMicroencapsulated rat islets with this two materials can survive in diabetic mice with their biological activity, and the alginate-BaCl2 microcapsules are better than the agarose-PSSa microcapsules.

Objective To investigate the effect of 3-bromopyruvate (3-BrPA) on transplanted rectal tumors in experimental rabbit models. Methods A total of 60 New Zealand white rabbits with transplanted rectal tumor were randomly and equally divided into low-dose (0.5 mmol/L), medium-dose (1.0 mmol/L), high-dose (2.0 mmol/L) treatment groups and saline control group with 15 rabbits in each group. Arterial perfusion of 10 ml 3-BrPA with concentration of 0.5 mmol/L, 1.0 mmol/L and 2.0 mmol/L via caudal mesenteric artery was respectively employed for the rabbits of the corresponding treatment group; the control group was perfused with equal amounts of saline. Four days later, rectal tumors were removed by vivisection. The necrosis degree of tumor cells was determined by microscopic examination, and the necrosis rate was calculated. The effect of different 3-BrPA concentrations on the rectal tumor was evaluated. Results The rectal tumor transplantation and transcatheter 3-BrPA or saline perfusion was successfully completed in all 60 experimental rabbits. Microscopically, tumor cells showed different degrees of damage in experimental rabbits. In low-dose (0.5 mmol/L) treatment group, gradeⅠnecrosis was observed in 3 rabbits, gradeⅡin 11 rabbits, and gradeⅢin one rabbit;the effective rate was 6.7%. In medium-dose (1.0 mmol/L) treatment group, gradeⅡnecrosis was seen in 2 rabbits, grade Ⅲ in 10 rabbits, and grade Ⅳ in 3 rabbits; the effective rate was 86.6%. In high-dose (2.0 mmol/L) treatment group, gradeⅢnecrosis was detected in 2 rabbits and gradeⅣin 13 rabbits;the effective rate was 100.0%. In the saline control group, grade I necrosis was observed in 15 rabbits. Statistically significant differences in tumor necrosis rate and effective rate existed between medium-dose (1.0 mmol/L) treatment group and high-dose (2.0 mmol/L) treatment group (P<0.05). Statistically significant differences in tumor necrosis rate also existed between each other among the four groups with necrosis of gradeⅠto gradeⅣ(P<0.05). 3-BrPA had obvious therapeutic effect, while it showed no damage to the normal intestinal tissue. Conclusion For the treatment of transplanted rectal tumor in rabbit models, arterial infusion of 3-BrPA has certain therapeutic effect. In the high-dose group, the necrosis rate and effective rate are the highest, and the therapeutic results are the most significant.

BACKGROUND: The pathological characteristics of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis are the proliferation of a large number of fibroblasts and the increasing deposition of matrix collagen that takes the place of normal lung structure. Fluvastatin can inhibit the proliferation of fibroblasts and many other cells.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of fluvastatin in inhibiting the proliferation of rat lung fibroblasts cultured in vitro and its influence on bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis and ventilation function.DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Respiratory Diseases, Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; Teaching and Research Section of Pathology, Department of Basic Medicine, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA; Research Institute ofOrthopedics, Xijing Hospital,Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: The study was conducted in the laboratory of Department of Respiratory Diseases, Xijing Hospital of Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from January to December 2001. Thirty-one healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats of grade Ⅰ were selected in this study.INTERVENTIONS: The fibroblasts derived from the lung normal of one rat were cultured in vitro in media containing fluvastatin. The effect of fluvastatin on the growth curve and the effect of its different concentrations(0, 1 × 10-7,1 ×10-6, 1 ×10-5, 1 ×10-4, 1 ×10 3and 1 ×10-2 mol/L, fluvastatin of 0 mol/L was taken as the blank control group) in inhibiting the cultured cells were observed with MTT colorimetry. The effect of fluvastatin on the division index of the fibroblasts was analyzed by direct cell counting Hydroxyproline colorimetry was used to detect the influence of fluvastatin on the collagen secretion in the media. The other 30 SD rats were divided into six groups: normal control group, bleomycin-induced group and fluvastatin-treated groups(TH 1,TE1, TH15 and TL15 groups) named according to the date of giving fluvastatin,i. e. the 1st day and the 15th day, after the rats were given bleomycin A5. All the rats were killed 28 days later. The number of fibroblasts, the thickness of alveolar wall and the area of mesenchyma in lung tissue were measured by HE staining. The extracellular matrix and collagen in lung tissue were observed by Masson and sirius red staining, and hydroxyproline in lung tissue homogenates was measured.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Fibroblast growth curve and division index of rat lung, hydroxyproline in the media and lung tissue homogenates,number of fibroblasts and the thickness of alveolar wall, the area of mesenchyma, extracellular matrix and collagen contents in lung tissue.RESULTS: Fluvastatin could inhibit the proliferation of the rat lung fibroblasts cultured in vitro(t=4.20 to 17.52, P < 0.01), and its inhibitory effect was increased with the increased dose of fluvastatin, which showed a dose-dependent effect. The 1 × 10-4 mol/L fluvastatin could completely inhibit the proliferation of the cultured cells, and the A490 value from the 2nd day on the fibroblasts by MTT colorimetry was not insignificantly different from those on the 1st day( P > 0.05) . The division index of the fibroblasts and secretion of collagen were obviously decreased by fluvastatin( t = 8. 037,P <0.01; t =3.99 to 10. 84, P <0.05 or P <0.01). In vivo, the number of fibroblasts, the thickness of lung alveolar wall, the area of mesenchyma and the content of hydroxyproline in lung tissue were significantly higher in bleomycin group than in control group( t =4. 62 to 11.93, P < 0. 01), while those in the fluvastatin-treated groups were lower than those in bleomycin group in different degrees( t = 2.69 to 7.65, P < 0.05 to 0.01 ) . The distribution of extracellular matrix and types Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen in lung tissue were obviously increased in bleomycin group as compared with that in control group, but decreased in different degrees in fluvastatin-treated groups.CONCLUSION: Fluvastatin can significantly inhibit the proliferation of rat lung fibroblasts in vitro, suggesting that it may be an effective drug for pulmonary fibrosis. Treatment at earlier stage is more effective than at advanced stage.
