Objective This paper aims to describe the prevalence of unhealthy weight control behaviors and its related factors amongst female medical college students. Method Questionnaire surveys were conducted among a total of 798 medical students recruited by cluster random sampling in Jining Medical College from April 5 to 16, 2013. Result A total of 728 valid questionnaires were collected; 29 participants (4.0%) were overweight and 9 participants (1.2%) were obese; 250 participants (34.3%) were losing weight. Among participants who had experience of losing weight, unhealthy weight control methods mainly included not eating staple food (17.3%), drinking diet tea (16.1%), fasting (12.9%), taking diet drug (8.6%), inducing diarrhea (5.4%), inducing vomiting (2.0%), enema (1.5%), etc.; 29.0% (211/728) of participants had unhealthy weight control behaviors. The rates of being weak (c2=19.681, P=0.000), failure to concentrate (c2=12.031, P=0.001), dizziness (c2=5.461, P=0.019), irregular menstruation (c2=24.628, P=0.000), anorexia (c2=32.008, P=0.000), insomnia (c2=11.021, P=0.001) and anxiety (c2=14.402, P=0.000) among participants who had unhealthy weight-control behaviors were higher than those of participants without unhealthy weight?control behaviors. Multinomial logistic regression indicated that the factors associated with unhealthy weight control behaviors were senior class (OR=2.041;95%CI:1.336-3.111), high average family income (OR=1.758;95%CI:1.183-2.611), weight loss intention (OR=6.756;95%CI:1.541-29.626),not hesitating to delay learning (OR=1.594;95%CI:1.078-2.359),insisting on weight loss process regardless of discomfort (OR=2.008;95%CI:1.245-3.238), slimming purpose (body beauty) (OR=1.786;95% CI: 1.095-2.913), and slimming purpose (fashion) (OR=3.169; 95%CI: 1.545-6.498). Subjects with longer dinner time (OR=0.556; 95% CI: 0.341-0.907) and preferring light diet (OR=0.593; 95% CI: 0.406-0.865) had lower rate of unhealthy weight control behaviors. Conclusion Part of female college students are lacking proper understanding of self body shape and unhealthy weight control behaviors and had done harm to their health.

Objective To evaluate the treatment of advanced liver cancer by intraoperative argon super cryosurgery system (ASCS) Methods A total of 24 cases suffering from advanced liver cancer were treated by ASCS during operation Nine cases were treated by ASCS only, nine by ASCS in combination with liver artery or portal vein chemotherapeutic pump, four were treated by ASCS with tumor resection and chemotherapeutic pump placement, other two cases received tumor resection together with lymph nodes′ ASCS and pump placement Results The procedure was successful in all 24 cases, complications such as bleeding of puncture aperture, thorax effusion, bile leakage and hepatic coma, were successfully managed Twenty two cases have survived 6 12 months, 17 cases for 12 17 months 9 cases for 18 24 months, 5 cases for more than 24 months Conclusion Intraoperative ASCS provides a new alternative to the treatment of advanced liver cancer with acceptable complication rates

Case recruitment of large-scale clinical trials should be strictly checked in quality and quantity for it is the key to clinical trial. This study discusses the main difficulties and countermeasures in the case recruitment of large sample, multi-center clinical trials according to the national research project "Myocardial Infarction Secondary Prevention Study in Traditional Chinese Medicine".

Objective:To analyze the differences of ocular surface bacteria between patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy subjects, and to explore the relationship between ocular surface bacteria and type 2 diabetic keratopathy.Methods:Fifty subjects were selected and divided into type 2 diabetes group and healthy control group. Bacterial culture of conjunctival sac secretion was conducted and 16S rRNA sequencing was performed to analyze the difference in the composition of ocular surface bacteria between patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy subjects.Results:There were significant differences in the diversity of ocular surface bacteria between patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy subjects. The species of bacillus brevis and paenibacillus in type 2 diabetes group were significantly higher than those of the healthy control group, while the species of aquatic bacteria were lower.Conclusion:The differences in the composition of ocular surface bacteria may be related to type 2 diabetes mellitus.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of 7 atypical antipsychotics combined with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors(SSRIs) in the treatment of refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder by network Meta-analysis. MethodsRandomized controlled trials (RCTs) about atypical antipsychotics and SSRIs in the treatment of refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder were searched in CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library databases from inception to June 2020. Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, the literature screening, date extraction and assessing risk of bias were performed by two researchers independently. Then all statistical analyses were performed using Stata 15.0 software. ResultsA total of 36 RCTs covering 7 atypical antipsychotics and 2 362 patients were included. Network Meta-analysis showed that the surface under the cumulative ranking (SUCAR) of total response rate was the largest in Olanzapine + SSRIs, followed by Paliperidone + SSRIs, Amisulpride + SSRIs, Risperidone + SSRIs, Quetiapine + SSRIs, Ziprasidone + SSRIs, Aripiprazole + SSRIs, SSRIs, and Placebo + SSRIs in turn. In terms of Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) score, the SUCAR was the largest in Amisulpride + SSRIs, followed by Aripiprazole + SSRIs, Quetiapine + SSRIs, Risperidone + SSRIs, and SSRIs in turn. In terms of Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) score, the SUCAR was the largest in Amisulpride + SSRIs, followed by SSRIs, Paliperidone + SSRIs, Quetiapine + SSRIs, Ziprasidone + SSRIs, Risperidone + SSRIs, Aripiprazole + SSRIs, and Placebo + SSRIs in turn. ConclusionCompared with single application of SSRIs, its combination with atypical antipsychotics achieves better efficacy and higher safety in treating refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder, with Olanzapine+SSRIs being the most effective and Amisulpride+SSRIs the safest.
