Objective To investigate the current situation of occupational burnout of doctors in west China and to explore the relationships among burnout,social support and work-family conflicts.Methods 611 doctors in west China were assessed by Chinese Maslach burnout inventory( CMBI),social support rating scale(SSRS) and work-interference-with-family and family-interference-with-work questionnaire.Results 14.1％ of the doctors in west China got high scores on emotional exhaustion(EE),49.4％ of them high scores on depersonalization(DP) and 33.1％ high scores on reduced personal accomplishment (RPA) ; 27.3％ experienced mild burnout,43.7％ moderate burnout and 3.3％ severe burnout.Doctors who had worked for 5 ～ 10 years and those for 11 ～ 20 years experienced greater EE.Those doctors with bachelor or master degree and intermediate or senior titles got highest level of depersonalization.Doctors in second-class hospitals got highest scores of depersonalization,and those who worked in first-class hospital experienced the highest sense of achievement.Logistic regression analysis showed that social support was a protective factor for burnout,but the conflict between work and family was a risk factor.Conclusion The status of occupational burnout among the doctors in west China is in a grave condition,the balance between family and work,and social supporting is crucial for doctors to resist the occupational burnout.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pneumocystoscopy for congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction. Methods A total of 18 children (male 11 and female 7, aged from 3 months to 7 years with a mean of 3.6 years) with congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction (22 ureters) were enrolled in this study. Among the patients, 9 had vesicoureteral reflux (4 of them had bilateral reflux), 2 had bladder diverticulum complicated with urethral stenosis, and 7 had urethral stenosis and ipsilateral hydronephrosis. After the bladder was insufflated with CO2 through a Foley catheter (16 mm Hg), three trocars were inserted into the bladder, and the bladder was fixed on the abdominal wall using silk thread. By pneumocystoscopy, the Cohen procedure was done through the trocars. A Foley catheter was indwelled at the end of the procedure. Results The procedure was completed in all but one patient, who was converted to open surgery because the contraction of the urethra. The mean operation time was 130 min (110 to 145 min) for unilateral cases (13), and 242 min (225 to 250 min) for bilateral cases. The patients were discharged form hospital 9 to 12 days after the operation, and were followed up fro 6 months to 5 years with a mean of 3.8 years. During this period, MUC showed no ureteral reflux. One of the cases developed mild infection of the urethra, and was cured by circumcision. Conclusion Pneumocystoscopy is effective for congenital malformation of the vesicoureteral junction.

Objective To study the protective function of resveratrol on radiation-induced small intestine injury and lethal effect in mice.Methods Mice were randomly divided into three groups:irradiation (IR) control,IR only,and IR + resveratrol.15 mice each group were irradiated on abdomen with 7.2 Gy γ-rays for cell lethal assay and 8 mice each group were irradiated with 6.5 Gy for small intestine injury assay.For the IR + resveratrol group,the mouse was given resveratrol by intragastric administration 24 h before irradiation and then was fed with resveratrol daily for 5 days.The control and IR alone groups were fed with placebo.After 30 days of IR,mouse survival rate was detected.For small intestine injury experiments,24 h after IR,the mice were terminated and the small intestines were treated with HE and immunohistochemical staining.Results Compared with the irradiation group,resveratrol increased mouse survival by 33.3％,decreased apoptosis in intestinal crypt cells (t =17.35,P ＜ 0.05),and increased Ki67 expression (t =13.62,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Resveratrol could protect small intestine injury from ionizing irradiation.

OBJECTlVE To investigate the myocardiaI toxicity of doxorubicin on the myocardium of rabbits and mechanism. METHODS Doxorubicin 2 mg·kg-1 was injected once a week for eight weeks. After discontinuation of doxorubicin,observation was performed for another 8 weeks. Every weekend, uItrasound examination,cardiac catheterization,angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ)Western bIotting and pathoIogi-caI examination were performed to anaIyze eject fraction( EF),maximaI rate of rise of Ieft ventricuIar pressure(+dp/ dtmax ),AngⅡexpression IeveI,apoptosis index(AI)and the structure of the myocardium. RESULTS At the 7th injection,EF decreased( P ﹤0.05),but reached the bottom vaIue at the 8th injection. At the 3rd injection,Ieft ventricuIar +dp/ dtmax decreased( P ﹤0.05)and reached the bottom vaIue one week after withdrawaI. After that,it increased and reached a high vaIue six weeks after withd-rowaI. But it was stiII Iower than before administration. At the 2nd injection,AngⅡ expression increased (P﹤0.05). At 1 week after withdrawaI,it reached the top vaIue,but than decreased and reached a Iow vaIue six weeks after withdrowaI,but was stiII higher than before administration. At the 1st injection,AI increased( P ﹤ 0.05). At 1 week after withdrawaI,it reached the top vaIue,but then decreased and reached a Iow vaIue 5 weeks after withdrawaI. But it was stiII higher than before administration. CONCLUSlON Doxorubicin cardiac toxicity can induce an eIevated IeveI of myocardiaI AngⅡ,possibIy associated with increased aIdosterone and myocardiaI tension. Increased Ang Ⅱ may induce further myocardiaI structuraI damage and ventricuIar remodeIing through the ROS and caIcium imbaIance.

In order to investigate the therapeutic effect of traditional chinese medicine "Re Du Qing" on silicosis, the cultured and purifiel peritoneal macrophages in five groups obtained from mice were observed dynamically with cytochemical me- thods and scanning electron microscope. The results showed that the survival times of cell cultures were 2-3 weeks, 24-48, 72, 48-72 and 48-72 hr in normal, silica, "Re Du Qing", P204 and joint action group respectively in vitro. The characteristics of cell morphology with a series of cell surface ultrastructural changes in different times of culturd and the stages of various function were different in five groups. The cell surface ultrastructural changes of "Re Du Qing" group were similar to the normal group. The macrophages in the silica group phagocytosed silica dusts rapidly died and broken down much earlier than the cells in "Re Du Qing" group. The cell surface ultrastructural changes in P204 group were less than that of the cells in silica group, whereas the eell surface ultrastructural changes in joint action group were between the cells in "Re Du Qing" and P204 groups. The activities of intracellular acid phosphatase (AcP) and succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) in silica group were also much lower than that of "Re Du Qing" one. This study suggested that traditional chinese medicine "Re Du Qing" is evidently more effective on therapy of experimental silicosis.
