Objective: To explore the relation among new graduates’ career maturity, work value,adaptation status and work performance. Methods: Chinese Student Career Maturity Inventory and Work Value Inventory for College Students were used to test 257 new employees’ career maturity and work value. Job Satisfaction, Role Ambiguity, Role Conflict and Turnover Intention Scales were administered to the employees 3 months later to assess the adaptation status. Their job performance data were collected at the same time with adaptation status, and were collected again after 1 year. Results: ①Sub-factors of career maturity and work value can predict adaptation status, including job satisfaciotn, turnover intention, role ambiguity and role conflict; ②Work value dimension of Reputation, performance after 3 months of joining the company, role ambiguity can significantly predict performance after one year. Conclusion: Newly graduated employees’ work value, career maturity can be predicted by adaptation status and job performance. Further follow-up studies are need for the influence of long-term work.

Objective To investigate the effects of acute hypervolemie hemodilution(AHH)combinedwith bypotension(CH)on hemodynamies and tissue perfusion and to evaluate the safety of the technique.MethodsForty-eight ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients of both sexes(28 male,20 female)aged 41-63 yr weighing 47-85kg undergoingelective orthopedic operations were randomly divided into 4 group with 12 patients in each group:A control group;B CH group;C AHH group and D CH+AHH group.The patients were premedicated with oral diazepam 10 mgand intramuscular atropine 0.5 mg.Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.04 mg?kg~(-1),fentanyl 4?g?kg~(-1),propefol 1.5-2.0 mg?kg~(-1) and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg~(-1) and maintained with inhalation of 1%-3 % isoflurane and50% N_2O in O_2 supplemented with intermittent i.v.boluses of vecaronium.The patients were mechanicallyventilated after tracheal intubation(V_T=8-10 ml?kg~(-1),RR 12 bpm).Radial artery and right internal jugular veinwere cannulated.The CVP catheter was inserted into right atrium and the blood obtained from right atrium was usedto replace mixed venous blood.ECG,MAP,HR,CVP,SpO_2 and urine output were continuously monitored duringoperation.Controlled hypotension was induced with sodium nitroprusside(NTP)at 0.1-2 ?g?kg~(-1)?min~(-1) andMAP was maintained at 70% of the baseline MAP during operation.NTP infusion was terminated 30 min beforethe end of surgery.AHH was induced with 6% HES 15 ml?kg~(-1) at 50 ml?min~(-1) after induction of anesthesia andbefore skin incision.Blood samples were taken from radial artery and right atrium before AHH(T_0,baseline),immediately after AHH or before CH(T_1),1h after AHH or 40 min after start of CH(T_2),at the end of surgeryor 30 rain after termination of NTG infusion(T_3)and 24h after surgery(T_4)for blood gas analysis and calculationof oxygen extraction ratio(ERO_2).Blood volume was maintained with infusion of colloid and lactated Ringer'ssolution.The amount of blood loss and blood transfusion were recorded.Hb was maintained above 70 g?L~(-1)Results CVP increassd significantly after AHH in group C and D as compared to baseline(P0.05).Conclusion AHH combined with CH can maintain stable hemodynamics,decrease blood loss andblood transfusion during operation and maintain the balance between oxygen delivery and oxygen consumption.

Objective To study the effects of 50 Hz magnetic fields on the in vitro proliferation of human osteosareoma cell line MG-63 with different cell densities.Methods Four different magnetic intensities(1 mT, 2 mT,3 roT,4 mT)were used to stimulate the cells,and the experiment was repeated with different cell densities. The method of MTT was employed to evaluate the level of proliferation.Results Fifty Hz magnetic fields signifi- cantly affected the level of proliferation of human osteosareoma cell line MG-63,and the 2 mT intensity exerted the greatest influence on it.The effects of the magnetic field differed with different cell densities.Conclusion The effect of 50 Hz magnetic fields on the in vitro proliferation of human osteosarcoma cell line MG-63 was not only relat- ed to the magnetic intensity,but also the cell density,

Objective To study the relationship between neuropeptide Y2 receptor(NPY2R) gene rs1047214 polymorphism and obesity or metabolic syndrome in Chinese children and adolescents, in order to provide theoretical evidence for obesity control. Methods 2030 students at the age from 7 to 18 years were selected in Beijing. Physical indicators, blood pressure, serum lipids and fasting blood glucose and the rs1047214 polymorphism in NPY2R gene were tested for all the subjects. Results The mutation rate of the rs 1047214 polymorphism (T> C) was 18.6% and the CC genotype frequency was significantly higher in non-obese subjects (3.7%) than that in obese subjects (1.7%) (P<0.05). The differences of BMI, waist circumference (WC), waist-hip ratio (WHR) and waist-to-height ratio (WtHR) were statistically significant among the subjects with CC genotype having lower BMI, WC, WHR and WtHR than CT+TT carriers (P<0.05), shown in males, but not in females. There were no statistical significances for WC, WHR or WtHR levels between different genotypes under the general linear regression model, after adjusted for BMI. There were no statistical significances for blood pressure, serum lipids and FPG level between different genotypes. Conclusion The mutation rate of the rs1047214 polymorphism in NPY2R gene in Chinese adolescents was higher than that in foreign populations. Polymorphism seemed to be associated with obesity in males but did not seem to have significant association between polymorphism and other phenotypes of metabolic syndrome.

Objective To study the relationship between insulin induced gene 2 (INSIG2) variant and obesity or lipid metabolism in Chinese children and adolescents. Methods A total number of 2030 school students at the age from 7 to 18 years were selected in Beijing. Physical indicators, serum lipids and the rs13428113 polymorphism in INSIG2 gene were examined for all the subjects. Results The overall mutation rate of the rs13428113 polymorphism (T>C) was 49.3%.The differences of genotype and allele frequencies were not statistically significant among normal-weight, overweight and obesity groups (P>0.05). Among the overweight students, those with CC genotype had higher body mass index, waist-hip ratio, bronchial triceps skin-fold, and anterior superior lilac spine skin-fold than TT/TC carriers. Among the obese group, those with CC genotype had higher total cholesterol level than TT/TC careers (P<0.05). Conclusion The rs13428113 polymorphism in INSIG2 gene was associated with abnormal lipid metabolism in overweight and obese children, which increasing the degree of obesity and abnormal serum lipids.

Objective To examine the relationships between the level of serum visfatin and obesity,nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)in children and adolescents. Methods Serum visfatin levels of 106 obese children/adolescents (including 49 non-NAFLD children and adolescents and 57 NAFLD children/adolescents in which consisting of 42 mild ones,15 moderate-to-severe ones)with another 69 lean children/adolescents as their controls,were examined by indirect sandwich ELISA.Results When comparing the serum visfatin levels,there was no significant difference noticed between the obese group ( 1.71 ± 0.37) ng/ml and the lean group ( 1.75 ± 0.37) ng/ml (P=0.455).With the severity of NAFLD,the serum visfatin level showed an elevation in obese children and adolescents [ obese without NAFLD ( 1.59 ± 0.36) ng/ml,obese with mild NAFLD ( 1.74 ± 0.36) ng/ml,obese with moderate-to-severe NAFLD (1.97 ± 0.36) ng/ml,P＜0.05].In the obese group,serum visfatin levels seemed to be related to age (^β=-0.326,P=0.000),alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (^β =0.286,P=0.004) and the degree of NAFLD (^β =0.246,P＝0.014).Conclusion The level of serum visfatin was related to non-alcoholic fatty liver in obese children and adolescent.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of iptkalim on myocardial enzymes and free radicals metabolism with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH), in order to provide evidence for the mechanism of iptkalim on clinical treat.

METHODS110 young men stayed at high altitude above 5 000 m were divided into iptkalim group (n = 74) and placebo group (n = 36), aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyltransferase (gamma-GT), creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malonaldehyde (MDA), nitric oxide(NO) and nitric oxide synthase(NOS) were detected before and after took medicines for 6 mouths.

RESULTSAfter took medication for 6 mouths, ALT, AST, gamma-GT, CK and LDH were reduced, SOD, NO, and NOS were increased, MDA were reduced, there were very significant difference (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONOxygen free radicals have taken part in the process of HPH, iptkalim have the effect of anti-peroxidation of lipid and protect myocardial cells stress injured by hypoxia which related with mitochondrial membrane and cell membrane's K(ATP) channel activation.
