Objective To analysis the relationship among stressors,stress medi-factors and mental health of left-behind junior middle school students( JMSS) ,and to built a structural equation model on psychological stress of left-behind JMSS. Methods 1309 left-behind JMSS in rural areas in Hunan were assessed,using self-designed Demographic Data Recording Form , Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Check List, Scale of APGAR,Perceived Social Support Scale,Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire,Eysenck Personality Questionnaire,Self-Esteem Scale and Scale of Mental Health for Chinese Middle-school Student. Results Life events (r = 0.08) influenced mental health directly,and it influenced mental health indirectly by acting on negative coping styles(r=0.01) and APGAR (r= -0.02). Social support(r= -0.02) ,self-esteem(r = 0.03) ,negative coping styles(r=0.07) ,positive coping styles (r= -0.04),P (r = 0.03) and N (r = 0.04) also influenced mental health directly. E(r = 0. 21) ,N(r = -1.87) and P(r= -0.83) and APGAR(r=0. 10) influenced mental health indirectly by the mediation of self-esteem; APGAR(r = 4. 89) influenced mental health by the mediation of social support. Conclusion Personality (P,N),life events, social support, APGAR, positive and negative coping styles, self-esteem impact on mental health of rural junior middle school students in different ways.

Objective To find out the differences between left -behind and non left-behind junior middle school students (JMSS) on Coping Style,Personality and Self-Esteem,and to analysis the influence of coping style,personality and self-esteem on mental health of left-behind JMSS.Methods 2406 JMSS in rural areas in Hunan were assessed,using self-designed Demographic Data Recording Form,Simplified Coping Style Question-naire,Eysenek Personality Questionnaire,Self-Esteem Scale and Scale of Mental Health for Chinese Middle-school Student.Results Score of positive coping style was lower(1.58±0.45 vs 1.64±0.46,P=0.011),while the score of negative coping style was higher(1.14±0.49 vs 1.09±0.48,P=0.022) for left-behind JMSS than for non-left-behind JMSS;the there were no significant differences on Pschoticism (P) (4.96±3.26 vs 4.83±3.23,P=0.357) ,Extraversion(E) (16.39±3.87 vs 16.61±4.06,P=0.592)and Lie(L) (2.77±3.76 vs12.84±3.71,P=0.447),while score of Neuroticism(N) (10.94±4.83 vs 10.46±5.03,P=0.020)for left-behind JMSS was higher than non-left-behind JMSS;score of self-esteem was loweR 26.67±3.55 vs 27.27±3.56,P=0.001)for left-behind JMSS than non-left-behind JMSS.Mental health of left-behind JMSS was signifi-candy correlated with positive coping style(r=-0.044),negative coping style(r=0.383),P(r=0.331),E(r=-0.113),N(r=0.548),L(r=-0.292) and self-esteem(r=-0.315) ;N (β=0.396),negative coping style (β=0.220),P(β=0.118),aelf-esteem (β=-0.146),positive coping style(β=0.074) and L(β=-0.071)entered the multiple linear regression equation,which can explained 41.1% of the changes on mental health of left-behind JMSS(F=150.602,P=0.000).Conclusion With parents going to cities to work,rural left-behind JMSS used negative coping styles to solve difficulties more,their developments of personality were un-healthier and their score of self-esteem were lower than non-left-behind JMSS,that interfered the development of their mental health.

Objective To find out the differences between left-behind and non left-behind junior middle school students (JMSS) on life events.Methods 2406 JMSS in rural areas were assessed in Hunan,using self-designed Demographic Data Recording Form ,Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Check List and Scale of Mental Health for Chinese Middle-school Student.Results Stress from studying and interpersonal relationship were the major life events for rural JMSS,scores of the total score and all the factors of life event for left-behind JMSS were higher than non-left-behind JMSS' ;with the exception of the loss factor (5.13±2.56 vs 4.94±2.33,P=0.095),the difference on the total score of life events (49.22±13.25 vs 46.42±12.67,P=0.000),relation-ships(10.28±3.74 vs 9.86±3.49,P=0.009) ,learning pressure(11.52±3.66 vs 11.03±3.66,P=0.014),being published (11.84±4.47 vs 11.28±4.12,P=0.005),health adaption (6.18±2.19 vs 5.36±1.82,P=0.000)and other factor(6.12±2.26 vs 5.73±2.09,P=0.000) were significant;Scores of mental health for left-behind JMSS were higher than non left-behind JMSS,the difference was significant(2.18±0.56 vs 2.07±0.57,P=0.000);scores of international relationships (r=0.437) ,learning pressure (r=0.373),being published (r=0.345),less(r=0.199),health adaption(r=0.338),other factors(r=0.380) were significantly correlated with mental health of left-behind JMSS,relationships(β=0.229),learning pressure(β=0.177),health adap-tion (β=0.152) and other factor(β=0.117) entered the multiple linear regression equation,which can ex-plained 26.4% of the changes on mental health of left-behind JMSS.Conclusion Compared with the non-left-be-hind JMSS,the negative life events of left-behind JMSS were more frequently,with greater negative impact,lesse-ning the occurrence of negative life events in life of left-behind JMSS was one of the effective way to develop their mental health.

Objective To find out the differences between left-behind and non left-behind junior middle school students (JMSS) on family APGAR index (APGAR),perceived social support (PSSS) and mental health (MH);and to analysis the relationship among APGAR,PSSS and MH of left-behind JMSS.Methods 2406 JMSS in rural areas were assessed in Hunan,using self-designed Demographic Data Recording Form,Family AP-GAR Index,Perceived Social Support Scale and Scale of Mental Health for Chinese Middle-school Student.Results Left-behind JMSS' PSSS(59.27±11.78 vs 60.55±11.88,P=0.009),family support (19.12±4.69 vs 19.72±4.59,P=0.012),other support (20.29±4.59 vs 20.69±4.57,P=0.033) were lower;APGAR ((4.79±2.32 vs 5.08±2.46,P=0.014) and Adaptation (0.77±0.62 vs 0.87±0.62,P=0.001) lower;mental health status score higher (2.18±0.56 vs 2.07±0.57,P=0.000) than non-left-behind JMSS.APGAR was signifi-cantly correlated with PSSS(r=0.368,P<0.000) ;APGAR (r=-0.098),in which Adapt;on (r=-0.123),Growth (r=-0.074) and qmidu (r=-0.080,PSSS (r=-0.149),in which family support (r=-0.151),friend support(r=-0.089) and other support (r=-0.137)were significantly correlated with MH of left-behind JMSS(P<0.01),family support (β=-0.126) and adaption (β=-0.086)entered the multiple linear regression equation,which can explained 16.2% of the changes on mental health(F=20.049,P=0.000).Conclusion In order to improve mental health of JMSS,parents,caregivers,should give them more family care,schools and soci-ety should pay more attention to left-behind JMSS,and give them more help and a health environment in life,teach them to find social support and solve problems in life by them through a series of mental health education.

Objective To find out the factors that influence the mental health of the rural junior middle school students (JMSS).Methods 2406 JMSS in rural areas in Hunan province were assessed,using self-designed Demographic Data Recording Form, Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Check List, Scale of APGAR, Perceived Social Support Scale,Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire,Eysenck Personality Questionnaire,Self-Esteem Scale and Scale of Mental Health.Results There were no significant difference between JMSS with different gender(P = 0.509 ), family income (P = 0.267 ), occupation of their fathers (P = 0.473 ), occupation of their mothers (P=0.105 ), education background of their mothers (P = 0.266 ).There were statistically significant difference between JMSS of different age (P = 0.000 ), grade (P = 0.000 ), whether their parents going out to work (P = 0.000 ),whether their parents divorced(P = 0.001 ) and education background of their fathers (P = 0.000 ); whether their parents going out to work (r = 0.095 ), life events (r = 0.522 ), family care (r =-0.146 ), the perceived social support (r =-0.186 ), positive coping style (r =-0.020 ), negative coping style (r = 0.369 ) and psychoticism (r = 0.322 ),internal and external(r =-0.132), emotional stability (r = 0.555 ), lie (r =-0.293 ) and self-esteem (r =-0.329)were significantly corrected with psychological health( P ＜ 0.01 ).Except age, grade, whether their parents going out to work and the education background and occupation of their parents,the remaining variables entered the regression equation,which could explained 51.2% of changes of the psychological health(F=227.809, P=0.000).Conclusion In order to promote the development of J MSS mental health, we can give then more care to reduce negative life events in their life,guide them to culture health personality and use active coping styles when encounter difficulties and setbacks through a series of health education, promote the healthy development of their personality.

Objective To evaluate and compare the applicability and accuracy of POSSUM , P-POSSUM and Thora-coscore in predicting the postoperative mortality of thoracic surgery patients .Methods We collected the clinical data of 1 450 thoracic surgery patients during March 2012 to August 2013 in the Second Xiangya Hospital.We used the 3 kinds of risk sco-ring system to calculate the predicted postoperative mortality in these patients .Then we used H-L test and the area under the ROC curve to evaluate and compare their degrees of compliance and validities of identification independently .Results Within 1 450 cases,20 patients (1.4%) died in 30 days after surgery, POSSUM overestimated the mortality (3.84%,P<0.001), while the P-POSSUM (1.05%/1.10%) and Thoracoscore (0.90%) underestimated the mortality, P>0.05.The area under the ROC curve of POSSUM, P-POSSUM ( two kinds of death prediction formula ) and Thoracoscore to predict postoperative mortality in all thoracic surgery patients was 0.774,0.777,0.777 and 0.831 independently, P <0.05; the area under the ROC curve to predict postoperative mortality in patients after lung surgery was 0.755,0.771,0.771,0.849 independently, P<0.05; the area under the ROC curve to predict postoperative mortality of patients with esophageal surgery was 0.640,0.650,0. 650,0.764 independently, only Thoracoscore P<0.05;the area under the ROC curve to predict postoperative mortality of pa-tients with mediastinal and other surgical was 1.000,1.000,1.000,0.854 independently, only Thoracoscore P<0.05.Con-clusion Thoracoscore scoring system is the most suitable risk scoring system to predict postoperative mortality in thoracic sur-gery patients with high predictive accuracy and good identification validity .

[Objective] To establish a determination method for isolated gastrointestinal intra-cavity perfusion pressure and to explore its application in pharmacological experiment. [Methods] Determination method for isolated gastrointestinal intra-cavity perfusion pressure was established according to motility of the isolated rat gastric muscle strip and water-sac perfusion manometry and ileum peristalsis of Guinea pigs. Intra-cavity pressure of isolated gastrointestinal canal of rat and guinea pig was observed. [Results] Gastric intra-cavity pressure was markedly increased as added with various doses of acetylcholine (1.25, 2.5, 3.25, 5, 6.25 and 7.5 ?g/mL respectively) in nutrient solution. The ileum intra-cavity pressure was also increased as added with various doses of histamine (0.125, 0.25, and 0.5 ?g/mL respectively) . The effects were in a dose-effect manner and the differences were significant as compared with distilled water group ( P

Objective To discuss the effects of the changes of sex hormone levels on quality of life and nutritional status in middle-aged and elderly hospitalized men.Methods A total of 150 male patients (aged 45-90 years) were divided into 3 groups according to age:45-59-year (the middle-aged group),60-79 year (the elderly group),and over 80 year (the old old group) (n=50,each group).Levels of serum testosterone,follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),and luteinizing hormone (LH)were detected.The questionnaire (SF-36) and micro-nutrient assessment table (MNA) were conducted.Results Serum testosterone level was significantly lower in the old old group than in the elderly group and middle-aged group [(10.5±2.5) pmol/L vs.(13.1±2.0) pmol/L and (15.6±3.2) pmol/L,respectively,P＜ 0.05].Levels of FSH and LH were significantly higher in the old old group than in the elderly group and middle-aged group [(15.5±7.7)U/L vs.(12.7±5.1)U/L and (9.5±2.9)U/L,(9.8±3.7)U/L vs.(7.8±3.2)U/L and (5.4±2.0) U/L,respectively,P＜0.05].The 8 health latitude scores of SF-36 scale and nutritional status scores were significantly lower in the old old group than in the elderly group and middle-aged group (all P＜0.05).Relation analysis sho wed that age had a negative correlation with serum testocterone level (r=-0.389,P＜0.05),and had positive correlations with the levels of serum FSH and LH (r=0.427,r=0.520,both P＜0.05).After adjusting for age,serum testocterone level was positively correlated with physical functioning,role of physical activity,body pain,general health,vitality,mental health and nutritional status in SF-36 health scale (all P＜0.05),and had no obvious correlation with social function and emotional function health dimensions (all P＞0.05).Conclusions The sex hormone levels are changed with age,which can seriously affect the health state in middle-aged and elderly hospitalized men.
