OBJECTIVE:
The study was to evaluate the quality of life in patients with fungal rhino-sinusitis(FRS) and to investigate the relationship between different subjective tests.objective measures and that between subjective tests and objective measures.
METHOD:
Quantitative data of 18 preoperative recruits with FRS were collected by using sino-nasal outcome test-20 (SNOT-20) and then the SNOT-20 items were categorized into five domains, a visual analogue scale (VAS). Lund-Kennedy endoscopy staging system and the Lund-Mackay CT staging system. Correlation among these data was analyzed.
RESULT:
The six highest score items in SNOT-20 were Facial pain/pressure, Thick nasal discharge, Need to blow nose, Sneezing, Fatigue, and Frustrated/restless/irritable. The total SNOT-20 score was not correlated with the other objective or subjective tests(P > 0.05). However, there was significant correlation between SNOT-20 nasal symptom domain and Lund-Mackay T score( r = 0.605, P < 0.01), as well as between SNOT-20 sleep related symptom domain and VAS (r = 0.605, P = 0.008). Significant correlation was found between the Lund-Mackay CT staging and the VAS (r = 0.6150, P < 0.01), as well as between the Lund-Mackay CT staging and the Lund-Kennedy endoscopy staging (r = 0.5001 P < 0.05). There was no significant correlation between Lund Kennedy endoscopy staging and the patient-based questionnaires (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION
The objective measures were correlated well with each other and CT staging had significant correlation with the SNOT-20 nasal symptom domain and VAS. There was also significant correlation between SNOT-20 sleep related symptom domain and VAS.

BACKGROUND: Many operations for isolating, purifying and identifying bone marrow mesenchymal stem calls (BMSCs) are complicated and cost much. Also they have great effect on cell activity. Whether whole bone marrow adherent culture can avoid above-mentioned disadvantages remains unclear. At present, many studies huve been done to confirm an effective and low cost method for isolating, purifying and identifying such cells.OBJECTIVE: This study is to in vitro induce and differentiate rat BMSCs by whole bone marrow adherent culture,and to identify the cells.DESIGN: A controlled observational experiment.SETTING: Qingdao University Medical College.MATERIALS: This study was carried out in the Laboratory of Oral Cavity and Laboratory of Molecular Biology (provincial level) Qingdao University Medical College between November 2005 and March 2007. Twenty Wistar rats of either gender, aged 3 to 4 weeks, of SPF grade, weighing 120-150 g, were provided by the Qingdao Laboratory Center. The protocol was carried out in accordance with animal ethics guidelines for the use and care of animals. Fetal bovine serum (FBS, Hangzhou Sijiqing Bioengineering Material Research Institute), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) kit (Nanjing Jiancheng Bioengineering Research Institute), reverse transcription kit (American Promega Corporation) and primer (Shanghai Bioengineering Co.,Ltd.) were used in this study.METHODS: Adult rat BMSCs were isolated and cultured by whole bone marrow adherent culture. They were digested with 2.5 g/L trypse and inoculated at a density of 5 ×107 L-1 in 6-well culture plate. Then, the cells were divided into experimental group and control group. Inducing culture medium was added to experimental group, and the same amount of basic culture medium was added to control group. ① Cell differentiation and calcium tuberculation were observed under the inverted microscope. ② Biological characteristics of induced cells were detected by calcium tubercle Von Kossa and alizarin Bordeaux. ③ALP activity was detected by diazo salt staining. ④Human core binding factor alpha subunit-1 (Cbf α-1), osteocalcin (OCN) and osteoblast-specific Osterix (OSX) mRNA expressions were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Induction and differentiation results of cells. ② Biological characteristics of cells induced by rat BMSCs. ③ ALP activity. ④ Cbf α-1, OCN and OSX expressions.RESULTS: ①Inducing culture medium was added in the serial subcultivation. About 9 days later, cell clones were connected to each other. On about 21 to 28 days, some pykno-round mineralized tubercles appeared. Meanwhile,control cells were connected to each other, but they did not form the tubercle. ② In the experimental group, when MSCs were induced for 21 to 28 days, obvious round or oval calcified tubercles were seen by naked eyes. The results of Von Kossa staining exhibited black sediments, and those of alizarin Bordeaux staining exhibited salmon tubercles. Calcium tubercles were not found in the control group. ③The ALP activity after 2 weeks of induction was obviously increased in the experimental group, but was relatively weak in the control group. ④In the experimental group,Cbf α-1, OCN and OSX expressions were significantly increased after induction.CONCLUSION: After being in vitro induced and differentiated by whole bone marrow adherent culture, rat BMSCs exhibited morphological and biological characteristics similar to typical osteoblasts.

Objective:To investigate the self-measured health status of college students in Tibet, and to construct the self-measured health scale (SRHMS V1.0) norm of College students in Tibet.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. A multistage stratified sampling method was used. From April to June 2022, a total of 7 990 college students were selected from all colleges and universities in the Tibet Autonomous Region (7 in total). The self-rated health of Tibetan college students was investigated and evaluated by combining demographic information and SRHMS V1.0. Descriptive statistics, t-test, analysis of variance ( Brown-Forsythe test for unequal variance, LSD test for multiple comparisons), and Spearman correlation analysis were used to construct mean norm, percentile norm, and delimitation norm of physiological scale health (PSH), mental scale health (MSH), social scale health (SSH) score and total scale health (TSH) scores. Results:The total score of self-assessed health assessment among college students in Tibetan universities was (72.18±12.35). For different genders, the PSH, MSH, SSH and TSH scores were (73.85±13.78), (65.80±14.73), (69.85±16.00) and (73.44±12.77) for boys and (71.18±13.36), (62.81±14.03), (68.57±14.90) and (70.92±11.94) for girls, respectively. Scores on each subscale and total scale were statistically significant different between the different sexes ( t=2.531, 2.672, 1.867, 2.623, all P<0.05). For different grades, the PSH, MSH, SSH and TSH scores of the freshman were (73.36±13.23), (65.77±14.58), (70.98±15.60) and (73.51±11.91); the sophomore were (70.74±13.73), (62.40±13.60), (66.92±14.62) and (70.16±12.28), the junior were (75.48±13.09), (64.08±15.12), (71.90±15.12) and (74.10±12.36); and the senior were (67.21±14.41), (59.19±17.67), (64.91±18.59) and (66.94±14.59) respectively, with the differences in scores of each subscale and the total scale in different grades being statistically significant ( F=3.952, 3.611, 4.841, 5.583, all P<0.05). The mean norm, percentile norm and demarcation norm of the total score and each subscale of self-measured health of college students in Tibetan universities were constructed with gender and grade as the cut-off values. Conclusion:The model of self-measured health assessment scale for students in colleges and universities in Tibet is established, which can provide evaluation criteria for evaluating the health status of college students in Tibet and plateau areas.

Objective:
To explore the effects of community building environment and sports with fitness APP usage and their interactions on teachers exercise habits in the Yangtze River Delta Region, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of a sports and health promotion intervention program for teachers.
Methods:
A total of 2 530 in service teachers from four provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Delta region, namely, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Anhui Province, were sampled in May-June 2023 by using convenient cluster random sampling method. Self designed questionnaire was used to collect the basic information of the surveyed teachers, Physical Activity Building Environment Evaluation Questionnaire and the Sports with Fitness APP Usage Questionnaire were used to measure the teachers subjective perception of the community building environment and the usage of sports with fitness APP, respectively. Physical Exercise Habituation Scale was used to assess the level of exercise habits. Logistic regression models were applied to analyze the effects of community building environment and sports with fitness APP usage on physical exercise, and the interaction effects were analyzed by using additive and multiplicative models.
Results:
Among all the teachers surveyed, 658 of them reported good physical exercise habits (26.0%), and differences in the rate of physical activity habit formation by gender, age, years of teaching, as well as subject of teaching were statistically significant ( χ 2=42.94, 39.73, 35.47, 218.23 , P <0.05). Teachers with physical exercise habits had significantly higher community building environment scores and sports and fitness APP use than teachers without exercise habits ( t =12.17,16.54, P <0.05). Adjusting for the confounders of age, gender, years of teaching experience, and subjects taught, multifactorial unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that the probability of teachers having good physical exercise habits increased by 22% for every 1-point increase in the community building environment score on average ( OR =1.22, 95% CI =1.11-1.40), and the probability of teachers having good physical exercise habits increased by 16% for every 1-point increase in the sports with fitness APP score on average ( OR = 1.16 , 95% CI =1.03-1.31) ( P <0.05). Interaction analyses showed that there was an additive interaction between the effects of community building environment and sports and fitness APP use on teachers physical exercise habits after adjustment, and the 95% CI for RERI , API and SI were 1.17 -1.65, 0.12-0.46 and 1.78-3.33 ( P <0.05), respectively, and there was no multiplicative interaction ( P >0.05).
Conclusions
The community building environment and the usage of sports & fitness APP show impacts in the formation of teachers physical exercise habits in the Yangtze River Delta region, and there is an interaction effect. Enhancing the construction of smart sports centers around the community can provide a high quality external environment for the physical exercise habits formation.
