Objective To investigate the current prevalence of depressive disorder and the associated factors in pa?tients with essential hypertensive from cardiovascular divisions of tertiary general hospitals. Methods A Chinese version of Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Fourth Edition) Axis I Disor?ders was conducted by five mental health professionals on 876 essential hypertensive outpatients at cardiovascular divi?sions of tertiary general hospital. Data on the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of these hypertensive pa?tients were also collected. Results The current prevalence of depressive disorders among essential hypertensive outpa?tients of tertiary hospitals was 16.6%(145/876). Risk factors for depressive disorders in hypertensive patients included fe?male gender (OR=2.817, 95%CI:1.161~6.885), being 65-year-old and older (OR=1.747, 95%CI:1.118~2.688), non-marital status (OR=2.023, 95%CI:1.203~3.398), gradeⅢhypertension (OR=1.776, 95%CI:1.226~2.333) and car?diovascular diseases (OR=2.018, 95%CI:1.427~2.587). Conclusion Essential hypertensive outpatients, who receive med?ical services at cardiovascular divisions of tertiary general hospital, have high prevalence of depressive disorders. Clini?cians should pay more attention to the mental health of outpatients with essential hypertension.

Objective To achieve millisecond grade precision in the design model of event-related fMRI experiment.Methods The impact factors of time precision were analyzed,and solutions were put forward.Results The parameter of E-Prime(a software dedicated to psychology study) was adjusted to get millisecond precision.Conclusion General computer is very difficult to achieve millisecond grade due to software and hardware factors,but it can be achieved through adjusting the parameter of E-Prime.

Objective To measure and analyze the radioactivity level of 210Pb in outdoor air in Beijing in spring.Methods Portable high flow air samplers were used to collect outdoor air at the ground level to analyze the 210Pb radioactivity in the aerosol filter samples using a laboratory-based high purity germanium (HPGe) γ spectrometer.Results The activity concentration of 210Pb outdoors ranged from 267.2 to 1 697.6 μBq/m3,with an average of (878.7 ± 386.7) μBq/m3.Statistical analysis showed that the activity concentrations 210Pb of outdoors varied with variable air quality.Conclusions The activity concentrations of 210Pb outdoors are detectable in Beijing,varying considerably but within the normal range.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of full-size three-dimensional individual printed model (3D-IPM) for improving the patient's understanding of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) preoperatively.Methods Between June 2015 and June 2016,37 patients with cT1 renal tumors underwent retroperitoneal LPN.The 3D individual digital models (3D-IDMs) were created using 3D medical image reconstructing and guiding system (3D-MIRGS) and the full-size 3D-IPMs were fabricated correspondingly.For each patient and his/her closest accompanying immediate family member (CAIFM),two preoperative conversations with a single surgeon were held by using patient's CT films,the entity of 3D-IPM combined with 3D-IDM demonstration separately.The preoperative levels of comprehension to the renal anatomy,mass characteristics,the upcoming PN procedure,potential complication risks and postoperative prognosis were evaluated using a self-made scoring questionnaire in the patient and CAIFM groups.Results All the fabrications of full-size 3D-IPMs were technically successful.Both in patient and CAIFM groups,the total preoperative comprehending score (total-PCS) elevated significantly by presenting 3D-IPM combined with 3D-IDM demonstration than CT films (42.7 vs.31.5 in patient group,P ＜ 0.05;44.6 vs.33.1 in CAIFM group,P ＜ 0.05).Sub-PCSs in all 5 aspects also showed a uniformed climbing pattern with the assistance of 3D-IPM combined with 3D-IDM demonstration rather than CT films.Conclusion The application of 3D-IPM combined with 3D-IDM demonstration can improve the preoperative comprehension of the patient and CAIFM to LPN with more intuitionistic and verisimilar presentation.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the ultrafine pulverization technology in Chaige tuire powder;to compare the content and microcharacteristics between ultrafine powder and ordinary powder. METHODS:Using contents of 3 active ingredients(puera-rin,glycyrrhizin and baicalin)and powder d(0.5)as main indexes,bulk density,angle of repose and microcharacteristic as refer-ence indexes,orthogonal test was designed to optimize the initial particle size,moisture and pulverized frequency in ultrafine pul-verization technology. Contents of 3 active ingredients of ultrafine powder and ordinary powder(over 65/80 mesh sieve)and obser-vation results of calcium oxalate crystal under microscope were compared. RESULTS:The optimized technology was as follow as over 65 mesh sieve,moisture of 2.5%preliminary powder in 60 Hz of frequency for pulverization. In verification test,d(0.5)aver-age value of 3 ultrafine powder samples was 31.5 μm(RSD=0.45%,n=3);contents of puerarin,glycyrrhizin and baicalin were 0.232 mg/g(RSD=1.31%,n=3),0.212 mg/g(RSD=1.62%,n=3),8.962 mg/g(RSD=0.89%,n=3),respectively,which were increased about 30%-40% than in ordinary powder(0.158,0.15669,6.140 mg/g). There were no or little bundles of calci-um oxalate crystal that is common in ordinary powder. CONCLUSIONS:Optimized ultrafine pulverization technology is stable and feasible;contents of 3 active ingredients in Chaige tuire ultrafine powder are higher and calcium oxalate crystal are litter than ordi-nary powder,which possibly reduces the adverse reactions in clinical application.

Objective To explore the health-relate quality of life(QOL) status of adult persistent allergic rhinitis (PAR);the change of QOL of pro-post specific immunotherapy (SIT) and pharmacotherapy .Methods Skin prick tests(SPT) were performed on PAR patients .According to the results ,80 adult cases that were allergic to dermatophagoides were enrolled in ENT outpatient clinic of affiliated hospital of Nantong University from April to August 2011 .The patients were randomly allocated to receive either specific immunotherapy(n=40) or pharmacotherapy (n=40) ,all of them were given RQLQ before and after half-year treatment ;40 cases without any allergic diseases were chosen from ENT in-patient department ,and were given RQLQ .The scores of previous treatment of the PAR group were compared with health control group ,then compared with the scores of post-treatment ,and also compared the scores of post-treatment between the immunotherapy group and pharmacotherapy group .Results The scores of the PAR patients were higher than that of health control patients in all dimensions of RQLQ (P< 0 .05) ,and the most troublesome problems were nasal symptoms .The scores of the patients who received SIT were evidently lower than that of pro-treatment in all dimensions of RQLQ(P<0 .05) ,the scores of the patients who received medical treatment were also lower than before (P<0 .05) , and the scores of the SIT group were lower than the pharmacotherapy group (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The QOL of adult patients with PAR was improved after SIT or drug treatment ,and QOL improvement is more obvious treat by SIT .

Purpose To investigate the effect of anti-HER-2 engineered antibody chA21 on the angiogenesis in nude mice xenografts of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells that overexpresses HER-2.Methods An animal model with SKOV3 cells involved in nude mice was established and the mice were randomized into control group and chA21 group;chA21 was administrated via caudal vein for 5 weeks, meanwhile the same volume of chA21 buffer was injected in control group.The mice were terminated after 5 weeks and the xenografts dislodged,VEGF and DLL4 expression in two groups were quantitatively analyzed by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarray sections combined with a micro-image analyzing system, and microvessel density (MVD) values were compared between the two groups by immunohistochemical staining of CD31.Results The expression of VEGF, DLL4 and MVD values in chA21 group were lower than those in control group (P<0.05).Conclusion chA21 inhibits the angiogenesis of transplantations of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells effectively.
