Objective To explore the most convenient and valid tool for screening mental disorders among servicemen. Methods Soldiers and officers stationed at Guilin were enrolled for the study. They were first examined with the Symptom Check-list 90 (SCL-90), Cornell Medicine Index (M-R)[CMI(M-R)], University Student Personality Inventory (UPI) and WHO neurosis screening schedule respectively. Then they were subjected clinical interview and examination individually, and clinical diagnosis of mental disorder was made according to CCMD-3 standard. The validity of each questionnaire was evaluated by using Criterion-related Validity. Results The sensitivity of WHO neurosis screening schedule was found to be 100%, and the specificity was 92.1%. SCL-90 and CMI (M-R) yielded similar results, their sensitivity was found to be 46.9% and 43.4%, and the specificity to be 86.1% and 78.9%, respectively. The sensitivity of UPI was found to be 83.1% and the specificity 46.1%. Conclusion The WHO neurosis screening schedule is the best in both sensitivity and specificity of validity, but its practice is time-consuming and laborious, which limits its application. SCL-90 and CMI (M-R) are imperfect in sensitivity of validity, and they cannot screen out the mental disorder in more than a half of the subjects. In a group test, they can hardly serve as a screening tool. UPI can screen out most of the mental disorder, and its sensitivity of validity reaches 83.1%. Additionally, the UPI questionnaire contains fake-test items, which could retest those who were missed due to untruly or not conscientiously answer the questionnaires. An acceptable way to obtain a true screening test is to give the individuals a propaganda of mental health and explain the questionnaires for 30 minutes before the test, which helps the examinee to understand the procedure and accept the questionnaires, so that the results of the test could be more reliable. In conclusion, UPI is a valuable screening tool to be recommended.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the changes in Wnt pathway inhibiting factors in esophageal precancerosis lesions induced by methyl benzyl nitrosamine (MBNA) and the effect of Gexia Zhuyu decoction.
METHODWistar rats were subcutaneously injected with MBNA (3.5 mg x kg(-1) for twice per week to establish the model. Since the 1st day after the model establishment, they were orally administered with Gexia Zhuyu decoction (16, 8 mg x kg(-1)). At the 10th week, esophageal tissues were collected to observe the pathological changes of esophageal mucosa, detect SFRP1, sFRP4, Axin1, Axin2 and GSK-3β mRNA levels.by fluorescent quantitation PCR analysis and β-catenin protein level by Western blotting.
RESULTBeing induced by MBNA, rats in the model group showed slight atypical hyperplasia in the histopathological examination. Compared with the normal group, Gexia Zhuyu decoction dose high and low groups showed no significant pathomorphological and histological changes. The model group showed lower gene transcription levels of esophageal tissues sFRP1, sFRP4, Axin1 and Axin2 (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) and higher β-catenin protein expression level (P < 0.01) than the normal control group. The Gexia Zhuyu decoction low dose group showed higher gene transcription levels of esophageal tissues sFRP1, sFRP4, Axin1 and Axin2 (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) and lower β-catenin protein expression level (P < 0.01) than the normal control group.
CONCLUSIONUp-regulated β-catenin protein level and down-regulated Wnt pathway could enhance Wnt pathway activity of MBNA-induced esophageal precancerous lesions. Gexia Zhuyu decoction could down-regulate the β-catenin protein level and up-regulate the transcription level of Wnt pathway inhibiting factors, but could not block MBNA-induced esophageal precancerosis lesions.

ObjectiveTo explore the expression of MRP1 and CD34 in colorectal carcinoma tissue and the relationship with clinicopathological factors.MethodsImmunohistochemical streptavidin-perosidase method was used to examine the expression of MRP1 and CD34 in 53 cases with colorectal carcinoma and normal colorectal tissue.The correlation between the levels of MRP1and CD34 expression and clinicopathological factors were analyzed.ResultsThe positive expression rates of MRP1 in the carcinoma group and normal colorectal tissue group were 49.1% and 15.1% respectively,and there was a significant difference of the positive expression between the two groups( x2 =14.029,P < 0.01 ).The expression of MRP1 had no correlation with the degree of differentiation,the depth of invasion,the metastasis of lymph node and all the other clinicopathological factors ( P > 0.05 ).CD34 value in the carcinoma group and normal colorectal tissue group were ( 35.63 ± 12.23 ) MVD/HP and ( 6.12 ± 0.97) MVD/HP,respectively,and there was a significant difference between the two groups (t =17.565,P < 0.01 ).CD34 was not correlated with age,sex,tumor size,localization of the primary tumor ( P > 0.05 ),but correlated with Dukes staging,lymph node metastasis,differentiation of the tumor,depth of invasion( all P < 0.05).ConclusionThe overexpression of MRP1 and CD34 protein may involve in colorectal carcinogenesis;MRP1 may involve in the primary multidrug resistance in colorectal carcinoma.; CD34 may involve in the colorectal carcinoma invasion and metastasis.Investigating the expression of MRP1 and CD34 in colorectal carcinoma simultaneously can provide new referential indexes for the treatment and prognosis of colorectal carcinoma.

Armillariella tabescens EJLY2098 was capable of secreting p-mannanase by konjac inducement. A 34 orthogonal design was applied to determine the optimum medium of inducing mannanase by Armillariella tabescens EJLY2098. The results suggested that Armillariella tabescens EJLY2098 secreted the high-activity enzyme in the optimum medium, which was composed of 2% konjac, 1% peptone, 25% potato juice,0.3% KH2PO4,15% MgSO4?7H2O, 0.01% VitB1. Purified by DEAE-anion exchange chromatography, two eluting peaks (P1 and P2) with the p-mannanase activity were obtained, and one of them (named?-mannanase P2) was a single band by the SDS-PAGE, and the molecular weight of?-mannanase P2 was 78. 9kDa. The isoelectric point of?-mannanase P2 was estimated to be 4.0-4. 1. The optimum activity for the enzyme was found at 60℃and pH4. 0 - 6. 0, and the enzyme was stable between pH4. 5 - 6. 0. The activity of?-mannanase P2 were enhanced by Na+ and Ba2+ . This?-mannanase can be used in feed industy. a new fungi secreting?-mannanase was obtained, providing an important base for cloning mannanase gene and constructing recombin microbe expressing?-mannanase .

Objective·To investigate and analyze periodontal health knowledge and behaviors in medical students and the relationship of these knowledge and behaviors with periodontal health status, and to determine the periodontal health level of this population. Methods·A total of 602 medical students were included in this cross-sectional epidemiological study. The questionnaire covered sociodemographic information, periodontal health-related behaviors and knowledge, experience about themselves, and periodontal health of parents, etc. Meanwhile, periodontal health indices of index teeth were examined, including probing depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), and bleeding on probing (BOP), etc. Results·Of 570 subjects aged 16-26 who completed the survey, 79.82% never used dental floss, and 78.25% never underwent periodontal debridement. 50.25% of the index teeth had BOP, and only 0.70% of the subjects had no BOP. 81.05% of the subjects had some degree of periodontal attachment loss. Male students were more susceptible to periodontitis (P=0.027) and gingivitis (P=0.012) than female students. Conclusion·No new risk factors affecting the periodontal health are identified. Regular periodontal cleaning and protection are important for young people to prevent periodontitis.
