ObjectiveTo explore the effect of psychological care and community revisit on preven-tion of postpartum depression. Methods300 cases of pregnant women were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group with 150 cases in each group. The intervention group took psycho-logical care and community revisit, the control group received conventional care. The incidence of missing follow- up and depression in the two groups were compared using χ2 test. ResultsThe incidence of miss-ing follow-up and depression in the intervention group was significantly lower than those of the control group. ConclusionsPsychological care and community revisit can significantly reduce the occurrence of postpartum depression.

OBJECTIVE To investigate pathogenic bacteria isolated from children with respiratory tract infection(RTI) and bacterial resistance to commonly used antimicrobial agents in Guilin area,so as to instruct the rational use of antibiotics.METHODS Routine methods were used to isolate and identify bacteria species and samples of sputum or throat swabs were collected from children with respiratory infection in inpatient departments.The drug susceptibility tests were performed by Kirby-Bauer method.RESULTS Total 733 strains of bacteria were isolated.The Haemophilus influenzae(HI) was the most common(165 strains),followed by Escherichia coli(136 strains) and Streptococcus pyogenes(51 strains).The resistance of HI to trimetoprim-sulfa methoxazole and ampicillin was 59.39% and 36.36%,respectively.Cephalosporins and quinolones were more sensitive to HI.Imipenem,quinolones and amikacin were more sensitive to E.coli as yet.The resistant rate of Streptococcus to penicillin-G,erythromycin,clindamycin and trimetoprim-sulfa methoxazole was 56.79-69.63%.CONCLUSIONS Gram-negative bacilli are the main pathogenic bacteria in childrens respiratory tract infection.The drug resistance is conspicuous.Antibiotics for treating RTI should be selected based on pathogenic bacteria variance and the drug susceptibility test.

Objective To explore susceptibility of praziquantel(PQT) against Schistosoma japonicum in the repeated chemotherapy areas in Dongting Lake region of China. Methods Sixty mice were divided into two groups, and infected respectively by cercariae released from the infected snails which were collected from new and old endemic areas. After 5 weeks, the mice in each group were divided into control groups and treatment groups (PQT group). The mice in each PQT group were treated with a single oral dose of praziquantel (600 mg/kg). Three weeks post treatment, mice were dissected, and the number of adults, the stool eggs per gram (EPG), the liver EPG and the hatching rates were observed. Results The worm reduction rates of the PQT groups of new and old epidemic areas were 98.24% and 98.71% respectively, and the stool egg reduction rates 99.94% and 99.64%, the liver egg reduction rates 75.85% and 73.10%,and there were no significant differences between the new and old endemic areas. The stool hatching test was positive in the control groups, and negative in the PQT groups. Conclusion Susceptibility of praziquantel against Schistosoma japonicum does not decrease in repeated chemotherapy areas in Dongting Lake region.

Objective To analyze non -small cell lung cancer patients with platinum -based chemotherapy excision repair cross -complementing 1 (ERCC1)and breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1 )gene polymor-phism,to examine the correlation of ERCC1 and BRCA1 gene polymorphism and non -small cell lung cancer platinum chemotherapy drugs sensitivity and chemotherapy prognosis.Methods 140 cases of non -small cell lung cancer were selected as subjects of this study.All patients were given platnum -based chemotherapy,peripheral blood ERCC1 and BRCA1 genes polymorphism were determined.The distribution of ERCC1 Asn118Asn genotype and BRCA1 Ser1613Gly genotype was observed.The relationship between different genotypes and the effect of chemotherapy and survival time after chemotherapy was compared.Results The proportions of ERCC1 Asn118Asn TT genotype,CT genotype and CC genotype were 5.7%,30.7% and 63.6%.The proportions of BRCA1 Ser1613Gly GG genotype,AG genotype and AA genotype were 8.6%,52.9% and 38.6%.In 140 patients,completely cured,partial response,stable disease and progressive disease patients were 0 case,33 cases,61 cases and 46 cases,the proportions were 0.0%, 23.6%,43.6% and 32.9%,the chemotherapy effective rate was 33.8%.ERCC1 Asn118Asn genotype was signifi-cantly correlated with the effect of non -small cell lung cancer chemotherapy (χ2 =4.416,P <0.05 ).BRCA1 Ser1613Gly genotype was significantly correlated with the effect of non -small cell lung cancer chemotherapy (χ2 =13.256,P <0.05).By Cox regression analysis and Log -rank test analysis,the average survival time of BRCA1 Ser1613Gly gene CC genotype non -small cell lung cancer after chemotherapy was longer than the CT +TT genotype (OR =2.946,χ2 =5.136,P <0.05).The average survival time of BRCA1 Ser1613Gly gene AA genotype non -small cell lung cancer after chemotherapy was shorter than the AG +GG genotype (OR =3.124,χ2 =5.136,P <0.05).Conclusion ERCC1 Asn118Asn genotype and BRCA1 Ser1613Gly genotype was significantly correlated with non -small cell lung cancer platinum -based chemosensitivity and chemotherapy prognosis.

For acquisition of the gene chip information, how to correctly locate the probe dots in the chip's scanning image is the base of the chip information processing. Here we present a new approach for locating the probe dots in the gene chip image. First, a medialness function, which is good at detection of circle area with radius given in advance, is used for calculating the medialness map in which the center of circle sample area of the gene chip image is disclosed prominently. Then, a method to locate the probe dots center is given based on the medialness map and the 2D space configuration of the probe dots. The experiments show that the new approach correctly locates the probe dots while against noise affection robustly.
