Objective To study the selective tumoricidal effect of adenovirus (Ad)-mediated fusion gene system driven by kinase domain-containing (KDR) promoter on human stomach adenocarcinoma SCG7901 cells, and to observe its apoptosis induction effect. Methods Both the AdEasy-KDR-CDglyTK cells with KDR-expressing SCG7901 cells and non KDR-expressing HepG2 cells were reconstructed, and then they were treated with the pro-drugs 5-FC and/or GCV at different concentrations. The killing effects of the transfection on the cells were evaluated. Flow cytometry was employed to determine the cell cycle distribution, and Hooechest/PI stain and electron microscopy performed to observe the pathological changes of cells. Results The green fluorescent protein (GFP) was observed in 95% of the infected SCG7901 and HepG2 cells when the multiple of infection (MOI) of the Ads was 100. No significant difference on the growth feature was found among the transfected SCG7901, HepG2 and untransfected SCG7901 and HepG2 cells. The infected cells exhibited different sensitivities to the two pro-drugs: SCG7901 cells infected with rAd were highly sensitive to the pro-drugs, while the infected HepG2 cells were not (P

Objective To evaluate the application of CT perfusion in the assessment of muscle perfusion in ischemic rabbit hindlimb treated by implantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.Methods Twenty rabbits were divided into two groups randomly (each n =10).Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were injected into the left ischemic hind limbs of animal models of intravenous injection group,with same volume of normal saline injected into the control group.Twenty-eight days later,the collateral circulation and blood vessel neogenesis were examined by Toshiba Aquilion One 320-MSCT and pathological approaches.t test and Pearson test were used to compare the parameters.Results The results show that rAF,rBV,rClearance,rMVD were 1.15 ±0.67,1.19 ±0.32,0.62 ±0.20,and 1.34 ±0.28 in intravenous injection group and 0.57 ±0.17,0.74 ±0.19,2.06 ±0.15,0.62 ±0.19 in the control group respectively.There was significant difference of rAF,rBV,rClearance and rMVD between the intravenous injection group and the control group(t =5.75,5.01,-2.81,6.43 respectively,P ＜ 0.01).There was significant correlation between rBV,rAF,rC and rMVD (r =0.857,0.811,0.615,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion CT perfusion imaging is a relatively accurate technique to assess changes of muscle perfusion in ischemic rabbit hindlimb treated by implantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Objective To analysis the victim's help-seeking behavior of domestic violence. Methods Using a multi-stage sampling strategy,306 victims of domestic violence were randomly selected and face-to-face interviewed. A self-designed help-seeking questionnaire of domestic violence was administered. Results 33.7%victims felt nowhere to seek help. The three leading helpers they seek were the other family member (34.6%),neighbor and friend( 17.0% ) and community office ( 12.5% ) ,and the community office had highest prevalence of effect (71. 1% ). The prevalence of seeking help from other family member and Women's Federation were highest in urban victims (P＜0.01) ,and seeking help from community office was highest in rural victims (P＜0.01). The three leading helpers were other family member (27.3%) ,community office ( 15.8% ) and neighbor and friend ( 10.9% ) by male victims, and other family member ( 38.0% ), neighbor and friend ( 20.0% ) and community office ( 10.8% ) by female victims. The prevalence of seeking help from neighbor and friend was higher in female than in male ( 20.0% vs 10.9%, x2 = 3. 980, P＜ 0.05 ). Adult victims seek help from other family member were less than children and the elderly (31.6% vs 42.0% and 46.9%, x2 =5.993, P＜0.05),and the elderly seek help from community office were more than adults and children (28.1% vs 12. 1% and 4.0%, x2 =9.930, P＜0.01 ). The victims with higher level of education were with higher prevalence of feeling nowhere to seek help (47.8%). Seeking help from other family member and community office were most in victims with lower level of education( 38.5% and 24.0% ,respectively) and were least in victims with higher level of education ( 17.4% and 0,respectively, P ＜ 0.05, P ＜ 0. 01 ). Conclusion Help-seeking behaviors of victims of domestic violence are varied by geographic settings,age,gender and education levels.

Objective To evaluate the association of the size of thyroid nodules and accuracy of fineneedle aspiration cytology in diagnose of thyroid nodules.Methods 691 thyroid nodules in 630 patients pathologically confirmed were retrospectively analyzed in our hospital.All imaging data of preoperative ultrasound-guided FNAC were collected in our review.Yields of FNAC were divided into six levels according to the classification criteria of the Bethesda system(level Ⅰ,insufficient material or nondiagnosed;level Ⅱ,benign ; level Ⅲ,atypical hyperplasia; level Ⅳ,follicular neoplasm ; level Ⅴ,suspicious for malignancy; level Ⅵ,malignant),＞level Ⅳ was the malignant cytologic criteria for diagnosis of thyroid nodules.According to the maximal diameter of thyroid nodules,the nodules were divided into group A(L≤0.5 cm),group B(0.5 cm＜L＜1.0 cm) and group C(L≥1.0 cm).Postoperative pathologic results were taken as the gold standard.Results Of 691 nodules,there were 176(25.47％),298(43.13％) and 217(31.40％) in group A,group B and group C respectively.Among the three groups,accuracy of ultrasound-guided FNAC in group B (90.94 ％) was higher than in group A(80.11％) and group C(83.41 ％),with statistically significant(P ＜0.05).There was not statistically different between group A and group C(P ＞0.05).The specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value were not statistically different among three groups(P ＞0.05).Conclusions The size of thyroid nodules was partly associated with accuracy of ultrasound-guided FNAC.

Cartoons were used in teaching of medical decision-making analysis course to analyze and reveal the connotations in different decision-making models according the difficulties of students in understanding the teaching decision-making models.The cartoons could effectively improve the understanding of abstract analysis model and the meaning of teaching analysis model in students because they could directly show the iterative and optimizing computation process in decision-making analysis, thus laying a solid foundation for the accurate analysis and ra-tional explanation of the results.Teachers should make full use of the visual cognition potential of students, and fo-cus their attention on the knowledge transmission and information exchange between teachers and students when they design the cartoons in order to improve the classroom teaching effect of teaching decision-making model.

Objectives To examine the effects of enhanced external counterpulsation on arterial elasticity in stroke patients to provide clinical evidence for secondary prevention of patients with cerebral ischemic stroke. Methods Total 192 patients with ischemic stroke were enrolled and then divided into the EECP (n=107) and control (n=85) group. Auto-matic measurement synchronous atherosclerosis detector was use to measure brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (BaP-WV) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI). The difference of BaPWV and CAVI were evaluated before, at 36 hours and one month after EECP. Results The BaPWV and CAVI significantly decreased at 36 hours and 1 month after treat-ment in EECP groups compared to either pre-therapy or control groups (all P<0.05). Conclusions EECP can signifi-cantly reduce the BaPWV and CAVI and improve the arterial elasticity in patients with cerebral ischemic stroke. Thus, arterial elasticity may be an important index to evaluate the effects of EECP on cerebral ischemic stroke.

Objective:To explore the relation among depression, anxiety, coping styles and personality in patients with major depression.Method:88 patients with major depression were assessed on admission. The assessments included Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Eysenck Personality Questionnaire and Coping Styles Questionnaire. Nighty normal controls were assessed with the same instruments too.Results:The patients were found having higher scores in Neuroticism and Psychoticism, and lower scores in Extroversion and positive coping styles than normal controls.Higher scores in SDS, SAS, Neuroticism, and Psychoticism, and lower scores in positive coping styles, were found in the patients with anxiety. Significant relationship was found among depression, SAS, Extroversion, and positive coping styles.The last three accounted for 52.0% of the variance of depression.Conclusion:The patients with major depression have high scores in Neuroticism and Psychoticism, and low in Extroversion and positive coping styles.Those with anxiety scored even higher in SDS, SAS, Neuroticism, and Psychoticism, and lower in positive coping styles.The application of little positwe coping styles moy be a part of Extrovision in major depresion.
