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.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of high fat-introduced hyperlipeidemia model in male SD rat and study the time rule of molding .Methods 30 Male adult rats of SD Strain bred in the animal house of the institute were divided into 3 groups after 1 week adaptation , group 1:control group, normal diet;group 2:model 1 group, high fat high cholesterol diet;group 3:model 2 group, high fat high cholesterol diet .The period of experiment was 8 weeks.Food and water intake were measured everyday and body weight were measured every four days .Blood were collected by orbital venous at the end of fourth ,sixth,eighth week to test their serum lipid level .At the end of experiment ,animals were killed to collect liver and aorta tissue for HE stain .Results Compared with control group ,the food intake of model 1 was higher and model 2 was significant lower , water intake of model 2 was significant lower , the ratio of liver/weight of two model groups were significant heavier ,and weight of model groups were higher .High fat diet significantly increased TC levels of model groups at the end of fourth ,sixth week.The level of LDL-c in model 1 group were higher and the HDL-c were lower compared with control group .HE stain showed the livers of control group were regular ,arrangements of the liver cells were trim, dyeing present uniformity .The two model groups showed a large range of hepatocyte fatty change ,a few liver blood sinus were in congestion and infiltrated with inflammatory cells .Aorta HE stain showed no significant change among 3 groups.Conclusions The method of high fat-introduced hyperlipeidemia model in male SD rat is feasible and the model turned out to present hypercholesterolemia with severe fatty liver .On the other hand,levers of serum lipid increased within an increase—inter-adjustment—increase state .In the process of modeling ,how to overcome the symptom of anorexia and the state of cholesterol inter-adjustment in animals is the key to successfully establish hyperlipeidemia model .

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.

Objective To obtain serological prevalence data for HBV markers in inpatients of Xi'an area with consequence of providing basis for nosocomial infection control and clinical stuff.Methods The serological markers of HBV (HBsAg,HBsAb,HBeAg,HBeAb,HBcAb) in serum of inpatients including 5 248 males and 5 345 females in 2015 were quantitatively detected by chemiluminescent analyzer ARCHITECT i4000SR.Results The infection rate of HBV was 7.01％ (743/10593) and there were 14 patterns of HBV serum markers in inpatients.Of all patterns of HBV infection in this study,there were 5.17 ％ (548/10 593) with HBsAg+ HBeAb+ HBcAb+,1.34 ％ (142/10 593) with HBsAg+ HBeAg+ HBcAb+,0.25％ (27/10 593) with HBsAg+HBcAb+ and 0.25％ (26/10 593) with other uncommon ones.Of all patterns of HBV convalescent stage,there were 21.02％ (2 227/10 593) with HBsAb+,13.71％ (1 452/10 593) with HBsAb+HBeAb+ HBcAb+,and 15.07％ (1 596/10 593) with HBsAb+HBcAb+.The percentage of five serum markers with negative was 31.38％ (3 324/10 593).There existed statistical difference for patterns of HBV serum markers concerning gender and different age groups,respectively (P＜0.05).The clinical departments with highest percentages of HBsAg-+-HBeAg+ HBcAb +-,HBsAg+ HBeAb+ HBcAb+ and HBsAb+ were department of gastroenterology with 7.39 ％ (36/487),department of gastroenterology with 16.43％ (80/487) and thoracic surgery one with 89.23％ (58/65),respectively.Conclusion This study provided clinical data of management and controlling the transmitting of HBV and promotion of HBV vaccination.Meanwhile it is necessary for government to take effective measures to reduce the infection rate of HBV in Xi'an area.

Objective To summarize the CT and MRI features of radiation-induced sarcoma (RIS) after radiotherapy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods From January 1997 to October 2012,a total of 73 NPC patients with RIS after radiotherapy were confirmed by pathology.The clinical data and imaging findings (CT and MRI findings) were retrospectively reviewed.Of the 73 patients,43 underwent CT examination,24 underwent MRI,and the remaining 6 underwent both CT and MRI scans.Results Fibrosarcoma [45.3％ (33/73)] was the most frequently histologic type,followed by osteosarcoma[31.5％ (23/73)] and malignant fibrous histiocytoma [9.6％ (7/73)].The top three common sites were maxillary sinus [26.7％ (20/73)],followed by the neck soft tissue [17.8％ (13/73)] and mandible[13.7％ (10/73)].The main characteristics of the RIS on CT and MRI were soft tissue masses[78.1％ (57/73)] with an irregular shape and ill-defined margin,or rounded masses with welldefined margin [21.9％ (16/73)].CT of 49 patients showed masses with isodensity or mixed density on precontrast CT.MRI of 30 patients showed lesions with isointensity signal on T1WI and intermediate signal intensity on T2WI.On post-contrast images,65.8％ (48/73) tumors showed markedly homogeneous or inhomogeneous enhancement,23.2％ (17/73) lesions showed moderate enhancement,and 11.0％ (8/73) masses showed mild enhancement.Among the 23 patients with radiation-induced osteosarcomas,78.3％ (18/23) presented tumor bone formation.Conclusions RIS has a characteristic imaging features.Clinical history,tumor sites and serial imaging follow-up are necessary for early detection of RIS in patients with NPC.

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.

Objective To characterize the features of Nasopharyngeal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) on MR imaging and find the main points to differentiate it from the other nasopharyngeal tumors.Methods The MR images of 41 patients with pathologically and immunohistochemically proven nasopharyngeal NHLs were reviewed retrospectively. Images were assessed by the size, invasive extent,signal intensity of primary nasopharyngeal tumor, and the distribution of cervical lymphadenopethy. The difference of regional tissues invasion and cervical lymphadenopathy distribution between the patients with B-cell NHLs and the patients with T-cell or NK/T-cell NHLs were analyzed by Pearson's Chi-Square test or Fisher's exact test Results Of the 41 patients, 26 patients had mature B-cell lymphoma, two patients with mature T-cell Iymphoma, and thirteen patients showed Nature killer/T-cell lymphoma in nasopharynx. MRI revealed that NHLs of nasopharynx can be showed as thickening of nasopharyngeal mucosa and (or) lumps in nasopharynx, which were slightly hyper-intensity on T2-weighted images, and intermediate signal intensity (similar to muscle) on T1 -weighted images, with mild or moderated enhancement following contrast medium administration. Twenty four cases had symmetrical disease of all walls of nasopharynx, and 17 cases had unsymmetrical tumor. Of all cases, 5 cases had superficial ulcerations, 9 cases had exceed nasoharynx invasion spreads superficially along the mucosa, 23 cases had invasion of lingual and (or) palatine tonsils,20 cases showed invasion of parapharygeal muscles, 12 cases suffered from skull base bone infiltration,25 cases had retropaharyngeal lymphadenopathy, and 27 cases had cervical lymhadenopathy. Patient with nasopharyngeal Nature killer/T-cell lymphoma had a higher incidence of exceed nasopharynx invasion,parapharyngeal structures invasion, and superficial ulcerations (the cases were 8, 11, 4 in patient with T-cell or N K/T-cell lymphoma, and 4, 10, 1 in patients with B-cell lymphoma, respectively). Patients with nasopharyngeal B-cell lymphoma had a higher incidence of inasion of lingual and (or) palatine tonsils.Conclusions Nasopharyngeal NHL is a homogeneous tumor that tends to diffusely involve all walls of the nasopharynx and spread in an exophytic fashion to fill the airway, rather than infiltrating into the deep tissues. Different pathological types of nasopharyngeal NHLs have some different appearance on MRI between each other. A large tumor in nasopharynx that fills the nasopharynx cavity, with no or minimal invasion into deep structures, but with invasion extend down into the lingual and(or)palatine tonsils, may suggest the diagnosis of nasopharyneal NHL.

Objective To study the imaging features of Kimura disease to improve diagnostic ability prior to surgery.Methods The clinical manifestations and CT and MR findings of 11 patients with histologically confirmed Kimura disease were retrospectively analyzed.All 11 tumors originated from (or involved)the parotid region in 7 cases, the maxillofacial region in 2 cases, the palate in one case and the groin in one case.Clinically, the lesions showed asymptomatic tumors with the mean clinical course over 2 years.The increase of cosinophilic granulocyte was found in all 11 cases.Results On CT and MRI,5 patients were single masses and others were muhi-nodular masses.The smallest lesion was 6 mm×3 mm,and the largest lesion was 60 mm × 34 mm.The lesions were almost ill-defined in the subcutaneous tissue,especially 10 locating underlying superficialfascia in head and neck.On CT,the lesions showed homogeneous hypodense to the muscle in 9 patients.The lesions appeared isointeuse signal or slightly hypointense on MR T1WI and slightly hyperinteuse on T2WI in 3 patients.All lesions revealed moderate or marked, and homogeneous or inhomngeneous enhancement.Regional lymph nodes (eight cases in the maxillofacial region and one in the groin) enlarged without necrosis and fusion, and with marked enhancement.Conclusion The clinical and imaging findings of Kimura disease have some characteristics, the diagnosis can be made combined with the laboratory examination.

Objective To explore the effect of Okam on airway inflammation in asthmatic mouse.Methods Thirty-two SPF grade Kunming Strain mice were randomly divided into positive control group,glucocorticoid inhalation group,Okam group and negative control group with 8 mice in each group.The mice were sensitized and repeatedly challenged with ovalbumin(OVA) to establish the models of chronic asthma.The glucocorticoid group were given Budesonide(200 ?g) and saline everyday by inhalation,the Okam group were given 50 mg/kg Okam by gavage,and the positive group had saline at the same time,the negative control group received saline at all stages.The inflammation of the lung tissue were scored underwent HE staining.Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) cell count and differential were studied,and interferon-?(IFN-?),interleukin-4(IL-4) in BALF were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results There were no inflammatory cell infiltrate of bronchiole in the negative control group.Inflammatory infiltration of lung tissue were obvious in the positive control group.Inflammatory infiltration of lung tissue lightened obviously in the Budesonide and Okam groups.The total cell number,Eosinophils(EOS) and IL-4 level in BALF,and the score of the lung tissue in Okam group were all markedly lower than those in positive control group(t=5.942,7.089,7.078 Pa0.05),IFN-? lower(t=4.275 P
