ObjectiveTo study the correlation of personality dysfunction with resilience in secondary vocational students.MethodsBy adopting the questionnaire of Personality Dysfunction Inventory for Middle School Students (MPDI) and Healthy Kids Resilience Assessment scale (HKRA) to assess 358 secondary vocational students.ResultsThe secondary vocational student's scored lower on relationship dysfunction (4.15 ±2.67) than ordinary high school students'( 5.18 ± 3.37 ),and higher on behavioral deviation (6.07 ± 3.20) than ordinary high school students (5.18 ± 3.37 ).There existed great capable difference of total and every fact of personality dysfunction according to grade (P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01 ),and the quo of personality dysfunction on second year in high vocational school students was better than high and senior high vocational school students.Both parents of secondary vocational student's scored lower on relationship dysfunction( 3.96 ± 2.36),emotional deviation (3.96 ± 2.36 )and personality dysfunction( 15.50 ± 6.27 ) than Single-parent family of secondary vocational students ( 5.73 ±4.12,6.51 ± 3.72,19.78 ± 10.44).There existed great capable difference of total and every fact of personality dysfunction according to relationship with parents (P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01 ),and the more harmonious in parental relationship,the better in personality.There also existed great capable difference of total and every fact of personality dysfunction according to educational background of parents (P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01 ),and the higher degree,the better in personality.Personality dysfunction of Students of secondary vocational was negatives correlated with their resilience (Pearson correlation coefficient was between -0.064 and -0.345 for each pair).The linear regression showed thatthepeerrelationshippredictedpersonalitydysfunctionofsecondaryvocationalstudents.ConclusionThe personality dysfunction of secondary vocational students is affected by their parental relationships,educational background of parents,grade and resilience.

Objective Using recombinant TrxTSHRc protein which contains TSBAb antigen epitope as antigen, an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was established. The cut-off of positive values of TSH receptor antibody (TRAb) was established. Methods Using recombinant TrxTSHRc protein as antigen, the optimum condition was determined, and the indirect ELISA for detecting TRAb (TRAb-C) in the serum of normal control subjects and thyroid disease patients was established. A total of 1 085 patients and healthy controls were tested for this antibody. Results TRAb-C ELISA mainly detected TSBAb. The A405((-x)±s) value in healthy group was 0. 319±0. 107 with a cut-off value ((-x)±2 s)of 0. 533. The positive rate in thyroid disease patients showed significant deviation, with 66. 01 % in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, 41.68% in newly-diagnosed Graves'disease, 6.98% in simple goiter, 11.1% in subacute thyroiditis, 8.7% in nontoxic thyroid nodular goiter, and 3.2% in thyroid adenoma. Conclusion The TRAb-C ELISA mainly detects TSBAb, which is very valuable for autoimmune thyroid disease, especially for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapy evaluation in Hashimoto' s thyroiditis.

Objective To determine the association between atrial fibrillation(AF)and coronary artery disease(CAD)in elderly patients.Methods Based on autopsy data from 1990 to 2005,69 male patients with over 70 years old and AF history(32 with chronic AF,37 with paroxysmal AF)and diagnosed as CAD clinically were selected as AF group.Other 60 age-matched male patients without AF history were selected as the control group.The pathological changes of the coronary arteries between the groups were compared.Results The morbidity of CAD and myocardial infarction were 55.1% and 42.0% in AF group and 53.3% and 35% in the control(P＞0.05).The pathological changes of the coronary arteries between the two groups were similar(P＞0.05).The AF group had a heavier heart weight[(440.5?81.9)g vs(398.7?82.2)g,P＜0.01]and a thicker left ventricle [(1.42?0.34)cm vs(1.27?0.32)cm,P＜0.05]than did the control.The paroxysmal AF group had more branches of arteries(17 vs 5,P＜0.05)with pathological lesionⅣthan did the control. Conclusions There is a high morbidity of CAD in elderly patients,but it is not in relation to the occurrence of AF.

In MAST (mRNA accessible site tagging),the DNA tags from synthesized library were employed for identifying mRNA accessible sites. A large number of tags were amplified and subcloned for sequencing to verify mRNA binding profiles. A PCR was designed by using one primer which bridges over the tag terminal sequences. In PCR reaction DNA tag fragments were concatemerized by a bridge primer in reaction cycles. The concatemerized tag fragments were subcloned and sequenced. Dozens of the concatemerized sequences contained thousands tags. The PCR was a simple,effective way which for sequencing tags in a high through put manner.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Busheng Huoxue Capsule (BHC) on the quality of life (QOL) in senile male osteoporosis (OP) patients, and to explore its mechanisms.

METHODSTotally 200 senile primary OP patients were randomly assigned to two groups according to random digit table method, 100 in each group. Patients in the treatment group took BHC plus caltrate-D (600 mg CaCO3), while those in the control group took alendronate (70 mg per week) plus caltrate-D. The therapeutic course was 12 months for all. Chinese medical symptom score and quality of life (QUALEFFO-41) score, bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar vertebra (L2 -L4) and left femoral neck were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Serum free testosterone (FT) and estradiol (E2) were also measured.

RESULTSChinese medical symptom scores and QUALEFFO-41 scores, serum FT and E2 levels increased in the two groups after treatment (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The therapeutic effect was superior in the treatment group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). After treatment the BMD of lumbar vertebra (L2 -L4) and the left femoral neck were somewhat improved (P < 0.05), but with no statistical difference between the two groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONBHC could effectively improve the QOL of senile male OP patients, which might be correlated with elevating the BMD levels and regulating the levels of sex hormones.

Objective To study the intestinal flora changes of children with pneumonia,and explore the feasibility and practicability of fluorescent quantitative 16S rRNA/DNA targeted polymerase chain reaction(PCR) in quantitative study of bacterium.Methods The bacterial DNA was extracted in stool between 23 healthy children (control group)and 23 children (pneumonia group)with pneumonia after therapy,A260 of bacteria was detected and compared between 2 groups.16S rRNA/DNA PCR were applied to analyze and compare the bacterial content of lactobacilli and Escherichia coli in stool between control group and pneumonia group.Results Bacterial A260 of stool were respectively(3 381.2?817.2)mg/L in control group,(1 643.5?498.4)mg/L on therapy group post-treatment first day,(859.6?165.2) mg/ L on the third day of post-treatment,(1 263.8?337.3)mg/ L on the 7th day.There were significant differences of bacterial A260 between control group and pneumonia group in post-therapy(Pa

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Qiju Dihuang Pill (QDP) on changes of Chinese medical syndrome types in pregnant women of Gan-Shen yin deficiency syndrome (GSYDS), and to explore the correlation between imbalanced cytokine levels and GSYDS.

METHODSThis was a random controlled trail. A total of 163 pregnant women of GSYDS at 12 -16 gestational weeks were randomly allocated into the experimental group (86 cases) and the control group (77 cases). Patients in the experimental group took QDP for 2 -4 weeks. Changes of Chinese medical syndrome types and serum interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) levels were observed and compared between the two groups before and after treatment.

RESULTS(1) Totally 41 patients (47.7%) in the experimental group were transformed to normal Chinese medical syndrome type. In the same period of the follow-ups, 9 patients (11.7%) in the control group were transformed to normal Chinese medical syndrome type, showing statistical difference (P < 0.05). (2) In the experimental group, the serum level of IFN-gamma and the ratio of IFN-gamma/IL-4 in the peripheral blood were obviously lower after treatment than before treatment (P < 0.01), and obviously lower than those in the control group (P < 0.01). The level of IL-4 after treatment in the experimental group was higher than that before treatment, and also higher than that in the control group, but with no statistical difference.

CONCLUSIONSThese results indicated that there was imbalanced IFN-gamma/IL-4 ratio in the peripheral blood of pregnant women of GSYDS. QDP might play a role in immunoregulation by affecting the IFN-gamma level.
