Objective To compare the two cell adhesion assay techniques based on 51 Cr release and 3H-TdR incorporation.Methods Firstly,the cells to be tested were cultured to confluence in the 96 well plate for 24 hours. After with 51 Cr or 3H-TdR label, the isotope labeled cells were add into plate wells and incubated for another 4 hours. Then the un-adhered cells were removed by gently washing. The cpm of two assay system were counted, the sensitivity and stability of two methods were compared.Results Assay methods based on 51 Cr release and 3H-TdR incorporation could both reflect the cell adhesion level correctly. In assaying sensitivity and stability showed that the 3H-TdR incorporation assay was better than in 51 Cr release assay.Conclusions Adhesion method based on isotope label could provide good sensitivity and stability. The sensitivity and stability of 3H-TdR incorporation is better than that of 51 Cr release assay.

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.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the isolation rate and drug-resistance of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia so as to provide evidence for clinical rational use of drugs.METHODS The strains of S.maltophilia isolated from clinical specimens were identified and tested on drug sensitivity by the VITEK-32 system.Parts of the isolates were tested by disc diffusion method.RESULTS A total of 295 strains were identified during from Jan 2005 to Dec 2008.The most of the were isolated from sputum in clinical samples,and ICU was the main distribution department.The result showed that S.maltophilia had higher resistance rate to most drugs.Levofloxacin had the lowest resistance rate followed by trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and ciprofloxacin.CONCLUSIONS S.maltophilia has serious resistance rate to common antimicrobial agent showing mult-drug resistance.We should pay more attention to the status,and rationally choose antibiotics according to the drug susceptibility.

AIM　To study the effect of desipramin e (DMI) on proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induction of rat glioma C6 cel ls. METHODS　Cell proliferation w as measured by MTT colorimetric assay and cells undergoing apoptosis were determ ined by electron microscope and flow cytometry. The expression of bcl-2 was eva luated by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS　DMI could result in the c oncentration-dependent inhibition of C6 cell proliferation and lead to arrest i n G0～G1 phase of cell cycle. The value of IC50 and 95% confidence lim its were 20.7(17.3～24.2) μmol*L－1.DMI（40 μmol*L－1）-indu ced apoptosis showed classical apoptotic morphology and the hypodiploid peak ap peared on the histogram of FCM in a concentration-dependent manner, which could be abrogated by cycloheximide(1.8 μmol*L－1). Meanwhile, DMI (10 μmol *L－1) could down-regulate the expression of apoptosis associated gene b cl-2. CONCLUSION　DMI could inhibit cell proliferation in a con centration dependent manner and induce typical apoptosis of C6 cells.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in classification of fetal arrhythmias, and conclude characters of each type of arrhythmias by analyzing wave forms of TDI. Methods Fifty-five fetuses suffered arrhythmia were included in study group. By comparing the results with control standard(M and PW), the sensitivity, specificity and reliability of TDI in diagnosis of fetal arrhythmias was calculated. At last, the character of waves by TDI of each type of arrhythmia was concluded. Fetal kinetocardiogram was made to identify the origin of arrhythmias. All cases were asked to perform electrocardiography and echocardiography examination after birth. Results The sensitivity, specificity and reliability of TDI was 98%, 100% and 100%, respectively. The character of atrioventricular waves and kinetocardiogram of 8 types fetal arrhythmias were conclude. Conclusions TDI has great value in classification of fetal arrhythmias.

Objective To investigate the effects of oestrogen-receptor(ER), progesterone-receptor(PR), vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and kinase insert domaincontaining receptor(KDR) in uterine bleeding induced by intrauterine device(IUD). Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of ER, PR, VEGF and KDR in endometrium from IUD bleeding group and normal control group, respectively. Microvessel density(MVD) was evaluated by using anti factor Ⅷ-related antigen (F8-RA) antibody to mark stromal microvessels. Results The expressions of ER, VEGF and KDR were significantly higher in IUD-induced endometrium bleeding group than those in control group(P0.05). MVD was significantly higher in IUD-induced endometrium bleeding than that in normal endometrium(P
