Objective To investigate CT and MRI features of hepatoblastoma in adults.Methods CT and MRI findings of 8 cases of adult hepatoblastoma were retrospectively analyzed.Results (1) 75.0％ of the tumors was located in the right lobe of the liver and 25.0％ in the left lobe of the liver.(2) The maximum diameter of the tumor was averaged at (8.2±5.5)cm,and the maximum diameter of ＞ 5 cm was 62.5％.(3) Most tumors have a complete or incomplete false envelope,and the boundary is clear.(4) 75.0％ tumors were of necrocystic degeneration with calcification or bleeding in 25.0％ cases.(5) CT flat scan showing uniform low density or low density,MRI scanning T1WI was low signal,T2WI,T2WI fat suppression and DWI were high in parenchyma.(6) To strengthen substantial part in mild and moderate arterial uneven improved or ring slightly improved,portal venous phase continued mild reinforcement,delay slow exit accounted for 75.0％,reinforced psuedocapsule was mild.(7) The adjacent organs are under pressure deformation.(8) All patients underwent tumor resection and were followed up for 3 to 24 months.Conclusions CT and MRI characteristics of hepatblastoma in adult are specific and help improve the diagnostic accuracy of the disease.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a scientific foundation for cosmetic supervision and administration based on the analysis of the sanitary quality of cosmetics in Hunan Province during 2010. METHODS: According to Cosmetic Sanitary Standards (set by the Ministry of Health, People's Republic of China), 150 random samples of cosmetics in Hunan were assayed both for microbial items (including total plate count, fungus and yeast, fecal coliform, staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeruginosa) and chemical items (including 17 kinds of prohibited substances and 14 kinds of restricted substances). RESULTS: The total rate of cosmetics failing to meet the standards was 22.0% of the 150 samples; specific rates for failing perfumes, skin care products (eye cream) and deodorant products were, relatively, 70.6%, 60.00%, and 44.4%. Four kinds of prohibited substances, including diethyl phthalate, acrylamide, asbestos and neodymium, as well as 2 kinds of restricted substances, including triclosan and formaldehyde, were found to exceed standards. None of microbial items exceeded standard levels. CONCLUSION The sanitary quality control of cosmetics is lax. Administrative departments should not only reinforce their post-production supervision with respect to cosmetics, but also consolidate their control over the process of cosmetic production in order to solve the problem of toxic residues or illegal and intentional adulterations.

Prohibited substances in cosmetics refer to substances which must not be among the raw material ingredients of cosmetic products. These substances are absorbed mostly through skin, as well as via lung and gastrointestinal tract. Polyacrylamide is ubiquitously used in industry and its decomposition residue acrylamide (ACR) easily finds its way into cosmetic products. ACR can either be oxidized to epoxide glycidamide or conjugated with glutathione, hemoglobin or DNA; ultimately it is excreted in urine. ACR causes neurotoxicity, reproductive toxicity and tumors in rodents. Occupational exposure to ACR causes neurotoxicity in humans; however, epidemiological evidence have not unambiguously answered the question of whether ACR exposure can increase cancer risk for humans.

OBJECTIVE: To study the relevant information on the label of health food in Changsha, and provide scientific evidence for health food hygienic supervision. METHODS: Investigation was conducted in department stores, supermarkets, pharmacies, and wholesale markets in the 5 districts in Changsha with multistage stratified sampling method. Self designed basic information of health food questionnaire was used to investigate the quality of labels the health food products. RESULTS: Among the 408 random samples, the unidentified rates of label items were ranked in descending order: functional components (49.8%), unsuited community (27.9%), manufacturing date (23.0%), approval number and others (9.6%). The qualified rates of labels were different in different management types (χ(2)=59.793, P<0.05): the highest rate was in supermarkets (71.15%), followed by pharmacies (70.07%), shopping malls (57.47%), and wholesale markets (26.23%). CONCLUSION The supervision of label identities of health food should be strengthened, especially for the health food in the wholesale markets.

Our primary health care institution began to implement national essential medicine system in 2009. In past fi ve years, the goal of national essential medicine system has been initially achieved. For examples, medicine price is steadily reducing, the quality of medical services is improving and residents' satisfaction is substantial increasing every year. However, at the same time, we also found some urgent problems needed to be solved. For examples, the range of national essential medicine is limited, which is difficult to guarantee the quality of essential medication. In addition, how to compensate the primary health care institution is still a question.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of nutrition and food safety education among middle school students in a poverty-stricken county in west China, and to explore the better education model for further education. METHODS: Students of grade 7 to 9 were selected from 4 middle schools in the country through multi-stage cluster sampling for the questionnaire, and the schools were assigned into an intervention group or a control group. After students in the intervention schools completed one year nutrition and food safety education with the textbooks, students were chosen from the same 4 schools to finish the same questionnaire again. RESULTS: A total of 410 students from grade 7 to 9 were selected at the baseline study, and 474 students in the final study. The essential characteristics of the 2 groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05). In the baseline investigation, the differences in the scores on nutrition and food safety knowledge, attitude and practice between the 2 groups were not significant (P>0.05). In the final study, the scores on the knowledge, attitude of nutrition knowledge learning, and dietary habits among students in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). School-students mixed model demonstrated that the intervention was protective factor on scores of knowledge, in particular with nutrition related diseases and reasonable diet (P<0.05). But the intervention didn't affect the scores on attitude in both ways (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Nutrition and food safety education can improve the nutrition and food safety knowledge effectively. The curriculum should be further standardized and different emphases should be set up to different grades to cultivate healthy diet behaviors.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the rationality and validity of weighted TOPSIS method and weighted RSR method to evaluate drug supervision and supply networks construction in rural areas of Hunan . METHODS: Data of drug network construction in rural Hunan in 2010 were used to establish a comprehensive evaluation model, and weighted TOPSIS and RSR method were applied to this model and the results of which were compared to that of synthetical scored method to examine the validity. RESULTS: A comprehensive evaluation model was established, comprising of 3 primary indices, 8 secondary indices and 56 tertiary ones. The result of weighted RSR method was highly correlated to that of synthetical scored method, yet the result of TOPSIS was less correlated to the formers. All correlations were significant (P<0.01). CONCLUSION Both weighted RSR and TOPSIS are not perfect methods, but the application of the methods in drug network evaluation is scientific and effective.

Objective:To improve the prognosis stratification, especially early mortality(EM), of elderly patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(NDMM).Methods:In this retrospective study, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were conducted to identify the independent prognostic factors associated with overall survival(OS)and the chi-square test and multivariate Logistic analysis were used to identify the prognostic factors associated with EM in 223 elderly patients(age≥65 years)with NDMM from three centers in the country.Results:Increased NT-pro-BNP(≥300 pg/ml), ECOG-PS≥2 and stage Ⅲ R-ISS were identified as three independent adverse prognostic factors of OS.The rates of EM3, EM6, EM12 and EM24 were 12.1%, 20.1%, 32.2% and 60%, respectively.The most common cause for EM6(particularly EM3)was disease-related complications resulting from ineligibility for treatment due to poor physical performance, severe organ dysfunction or treatment discontinuation due to treatment intolerance, while the most common cause for EM12(particularly EM24)was disease progression or relapse mainly as a result of inadequate treatment.R-ISS staging failed to predict EM, while decreased eGFR, ECOG-PS≥2, and increased NT-pro-BNP were able to estimate the risk of EM, with increased NT-pro-BNP as a common independent factor for EM12( P=0.03)and EM24( P=0.015). Conclusions:R-ISS staging, which primarily reflects MM biology, cannot predict EM.However, factors such as NT-pro-BNP, eGFR and ECOG-PS associated with frailty and impairment of organ functions can be used to estimate the risk of EM, among which NT-pro-BNP may be the most important independent factor for EM.Therefore, incorporation of these frailty-related biomarkers into R-ISS staging may be able to more precisely estimate the prognosis and particularly early death of elderly patients with NDMM.

Objective : To explore the method of using high-fat diet combined with angiotensin-Ⅱ ( Ang-Ⅱ) and β-aminopropionitrile (BAPN) to establish the model of aortic dissection in mice． Methods : 24 C57BL /6J mice (4 weeks old，male) were randomly divided into control group［intraperitoneal injection of 0．9% sodium chloride solu- tion 10 ml / (kg · d) ］and experimental groups［Ang-Ⅱ 4 mg / ( kg · d) group，Ang-Ⅱ 4 mg / ( kg · d) + BAPN 0. 33 g / (kg · d) group］，each group with 8 mice ; all mice were given a high-fat diet and the mice weights were measured at the same time point and administered according to the weight standard．The dead mice were dissected immediately and the aorta was taken out for pathological section，then observed under the microscope．The morphology of aorta was detected by small animal ultrasound and the mice with obvious dissection were killed and dissected directly. Results : After administration，the activity and appetite of mice in the high-fat diet combined with Ang-Ⅱ + BAPN group decreased most significantly，and the mortality rate of aortic dissection rupture and the success rate of modeling in this group were higher than those in the high-fat diet combined with Ang-Ⅱ group，while there was no significant change in the control group．Under the ultrasound of small animals，compared with the other two groups，the mice in the high-fat diet combined with Ang-Ⅱ + BAPN group showed the formation of abdominal aortic vascular false lumen and vascular enlargement．The mice that died during the administration were dissected immediately，and a large number of blood clots in the abdominal cavity and around the blood vessels could be seen．The mice with aortic dissection or aortic aneurysm could be seen under ultrasound in small animals，and severe adhesion between the vascular wall and the surrounding tissues could be found when dissected，while no obvious abnormalities were found in the blood vessels of the control group．The results of the staining showed that the false lumen of blood vessel wall was formed and the arrangement of elastin and collagen was disordered in the mice of high fat diet com- bined with Ang-Ⅱ + BAPN group．The thickness of blood vessel wall in each group was statistically analyzed，and it was found that the blood vessels in the two experimental groups were thicker than those in the control group，which was statistically significant (P＜0. 001) ．The vascular wall of Ang-Ⅱ + BAPN + high-fat diet group showed severe elastin degradation． Conclusion High-fat diet combined with Ang-Ⅱ 4 mg / (kg · d) and BAPN 0. 33 g / (kg · d) can establish an efficient model of aortic dissection in mice.
