Objective:To explore the change of attentive characteristics and subjective evaluation of mental fatigue un-der the condition of driving simulation.Methods:16 healthy taxi drivers(all males) were involved in this research.The change of attentive characteristics and the self-rating scale for subjective fatigue symptoms were both recorded before and after six-hour driving simulation.Because of the own control design,the drivers' attentive characteristics and self-rating scales were measured again in their off days.Results:There was significant difference in the changes of attentive charac-teristics in the experimental group,but no significant difference in the control group.And there was no significant differ-ence of subjective evaluation either in the experimental group or control group.Conclusion:Under the condition of driv-ing simulation,the attentive characteristics of drivers were changed,say,they were impaired,even though they did not per-ceive the feelings of fatigue.

Objective:To study the characteristic of P300 elicited by the Oddball pattern among the depressed patients.Methods:Twelve untreated young depressed patients and sixteen normal people as a control group participated.Auditory P300 and novel P300 were induced and recorded under the Oddball pattern.Results:The depressed patients’ reaction time(755?244ms) to the target stimuli was significantly longer than that of the control group(386?114ms).As compared with the normal,the depressed patients’ amplitudes of P3b in the parietal(P

Objective To compare the cognitive difference of subjects'responses to the same visual stimuli under two different priming conditions,and to discuss the influence of inversion effect and configural changes upon facial recognition.Methods Priming pattern was employed,and subjects were induced to recognize the same stimuli as schematic faces or three English letters under different priming conditions.The participants'accuracy and reaction times were compared in two priming conditions. Results Participants'accuracy of the comparison stimuli in facial priming condition decreased significantly by inversion effect((79.03±10.53)%vs(89.43±9.98)%,P<0.01);reaction times of priming stimuli and comparison stimuli were delayed by inversion effect significantly((3720.40±607.71)ms vs(2998.33±544.02)ms,(3521.80±1038.20)ms vs(2750.87±867.13)ms,P<0.01),and there was no influence of inversion effect upon the reaction times of English letter stimuli(P>0.05).Correlations of accuracy to reaction times reached no significant difference under two conditions.Conclusion Priming effect make sense in the cognition,and there was a priming stage before the facial configuration.Inversion effect shows up in the face priming condition,and vanish in the English letter priming condition,which demonstrate the importance of configuration and inversion effect in the facial cognition.What's more,such effect can't be explained by the changes of cognitive difficulty.

Objective To identify risk factors of lymph node metastasis in superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC),and to provide evidence for treatment choice under endoscope.Methods From January 2007 to December 2011,285 patients with pathologically diagnosed ESCC who received surgery and had clear record of lymph nodes resection were enrolled.The clinical pathological data of these patients were analyzed,including age,gender,smoking and drinking history,history of cancer,family history of cancer,location,tumor size,presence of esophageal,depth of infiltration,differentiation,and vascular cancer embolus.Univariate analysis (chi square test or Fisher exact probability method) and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed for risk factors of lymph node metastasis assessment.According to the rates of lymph node metastasis,patients were divided into three groups as follows:low risk,high risk and extremely high risk of lymph node metastasis.KaplanMeier method was used to calculate the average survival time and cumulative five years survival rate.Results Among the 285 patients with ESCC,40 (14.0 ％) patients with lymph node metastasis.The results of univariate analysis showed that location (x2 =9.333),tumor length (Fisher exact probability method),depth of infiltration (x2 =9.327),differentiation degree (Fisher exact probability method) vascular cancer embolus (Fisher exact probability method) were significantly associated with lymph node metastasis (all P＜0.05).The results of multivariate analysis indicated that tumor length over 5 cm,invasion to submucosal layer and vascular cancer embolus were independent risk factors of lymph node metastasis,and the odd ratio was 17.408(95％ confidence interval (CI) 1.557 to 194.686),3.471(95％CI 1.440 to 8.365) and 6.256(95％CI 1.787 to 21.910),respectively.The lymph node metastasis rates of patients in low risk,high risk and extremely high risk group were 5.2％(6/115),15.8％ (24/152) and 10/18,respectively;the average survival times were (69.9 ± 2.4),(63.8 ± 2.1) and (51.7 ± 1.7) months,respectively.The cumulative five years survival rates were 59 ％,51 ％ and 31％,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (x2 6.816,P=0.033).Conclusions The risk of lymph node metastasis is high in ESCC patients with tumor length over 5 cm,invasion to submucosal layer and vascular cancer embolus,and the prognosis is poor.Lymph node metastasis should be considered when endoscopic therapy is chosen.

Objective To establish a model for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma by irradiation of SKH-1 hairless mice with solar-simulated ultraviolet (solar UV), and to explore the biological characteristics of the model. Methods A total of 91 SKH-1 hairless mice were randomly divided into seven experimental groups (n = 10) and seven control groups (n = 3). The mice in experimental groups were irradiated with minimal erythema dose of solar UV 4 times per week for various durations (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28 weeks), while the control mice received no irradiation. The general status and skin appearance of mice were observed during the treatment process. Mice were killed immediately after the last irradiation at different time points and pathological examination was carried out to observe the histological changes of skin lesions. Results Papules measuring equal to or more than 1 mm in diameter began to develop in some mice in experimental group 10 weeks after the first irradiation; tumors began to appear in 39.3% (11/28) of the remaining mice in experimental group on week 20, and in 100% (10/10) of the remaining mice on week 28. The cumulative dose approximated to 26.99 J/cm2 for UVB and 242.91 J/cm2 for UVA after 28-week irradiation. No tumor was observed in the control mice. Pathological examination revealed characteristic changes of squamous cell carcinoma in 30% of the mice on week 12, 33.3% on week 16, 60% on week 20, 87% on week 24, and 100% on week 28. Conclusions Ultraviolet could induce the hyperplasia of skin in SKH-1 hairless mice, and even cause the development of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma after prolonged irradiation.

Objective To identify the mutation of trafficking protein particle complex 2 (TRAPPC2) gene in a large Chinese pedigree with X-linked spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda by the PCR-based capillary electrophoresis methods.Methods The blood samples were collected from a large Chinese pedigree of three generations with six affected persons with X-SEDT.Four exons comprising the TRAPPC2 gene open reading frame as well as their exor/intron boundaries were analyzed by argrose electrophoresis and bidirectional direct sequencing of PCR products.Fluorescence labeled fragment analysis was performed by capillary electrophoresis.Results A 5-bp deletion mutation of TRAPPC2 gene in exon 5,c.262_266delGACAT (D88del; I89fX12),was identified in the proband and his unaffected mother(a heterozygote) in the Chinese family with X-SEDT,but no other sequence change occurring in exons 3,4 and 6 was detected.The old sister of proband was determined being carriers because she carries the deletion fragment allele of exon 5 PCR product and the young sister being normal individuals because she carries the wild allele of TRAPPC2 gene.Conclusions The mutation c.262_266delGACAT (D88del; I89fX12) of TRAPPC2 gene was firstly reported in Chinese people.The mutation of c.262_266delGACAT (D88del; I89fX12) in TRAPPC2 gene may be the pathologic cause of the patients in the X-SEDT pedigree.Fragment analysis combined with DNA sequencing by capillary electrophoresis method is effective laboratory test in the small deletion mutation analysis and carriers screening in X-SEDT family.

Objective To explore the relationship between schizotypal personality proneness and intelligence .Methods 1905 subjects were tested by Chinese Soldier Personality Questionnaire(CSPQ).According to the results of CSPQ,the subjects were divided into high-risk subjects and normal ones.The Words Reasoning Test, the Arithmetic Reasoning Test and the Assembling Test were used to evaluate the intelligence,and the scores of these tests were compared between the two groups.Correlation coefficient between schizotypal personality proneness and intelligence was calculated.Results The scores of the Words Reasoning Test,the Arithmetic Reasoning Test and the Assembling Test in high-risk subjects were significantly lower than those in normal ones((87.83±18.42)VS(101.37±13.48),P<0.01;(91.74±14.26)vs(101.65±14.62),P<0.01;(87.70±18.82)VS (101.73±14.26),P<0.01).Schizotypal personality proneness was significantly correlated with the scores of intelligence(r=-0.39,P<0.01).Conclusion Lower intelligence level is found in the group with schizotypal personality proneness.Intelligence is correlated with schizotypal personality proneness.
