Objective To provide basis for the formulation of policies and measures that will reduce the work pressure on nurses and to provide them with a better working environment. Methods An investigation was made via questionnaires into 942 nurses working in designated SARS hospitals and a comprehensive analysis was conducted by means of multivariant stepwise regression. Results The major factors affecting the pressure on nurses include: lack of support from and communications with families, arduousness of tasks to an unbearable point, extreme strictness in management, and unsoundness of treatment and living conditions. Conclusion Good communications with families are of great significance to nurses working in isolated areas. It is imperative to rationally allocate the human resources of nurses, show more concern for them, encourage them to participate in management, and strengthen scientific prevention so as to create a better working environment.

Objective:To express and purify recombinant human collagen type Ⅲ and evaluate its properties.Methods:The recombinant genetic engineering strain pET30a(+)-1880/pACYCDuet-hy726/bL21(DE3) was constructed to stably co-express recombinant human type Ⅲ collagen (rhCol) and prolyl hydroxylase. rhCol was prepared and purified by E. coli high-density fermentation, salting out and column chromatography protein purification technology. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to determine the purity of rhCol. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of rhCol were determined by automatic protein polypeptide sequencing instrument. The hydroxyproline content of rhCol was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry. The cellular compatibility of rhCol was evaluated by MTT assay. Results:The final wet weight of high-density fermentation was about 200 g/L. The expression level was about 3 g/L. The purity of rhCol by affinity chromatography was over 95%. The results showed that the hydroxyproline content of rhCol was 11.44%, and the rhCol products have good water solubility and cell compatibility.Conclusions:RhCol can be widely applied to the field of skin care and biomedicine as an excellent biological material.

OBJECTIVE: To study the forensic application of Goldeneye DNA ID 26Y Kit in the She nationality. METHODS: Through capillary electrophoresis, the genotype of 26 Y-STR loci were analyzed in 53 unrelated male individuals from Fujian She nationality. The population genetics parameters such as allele frequency and haplotype diversity were calculated. The comparisons among the She nationality and the other nationalities were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 126 alleles were observed on the 26 Y-STR loci of 53 unrelated male individuals. The allele frequencies and GD value ranged from 0.010 1 to 0.886 8 and 0.211 2 to 0.846 2, respectively. The GD value was greater than 0.5 in the 19 loci. A total of 47 haplotypes were observed. Based on R(ST), multidimensional scaling plot indicated that the genetic relationship among Fujian She nationality and Minnan Han nationality was closest, followed by Southern China Han nationality and Northern China nationality. CONCLUSION Goldeneye™ DNA ID 26Y Kit including 26 Y-STR loci has good polymorphism in the She nationality. As an additional system, it has forensic application value in some special cases.

Seven emotions generation relates to the interaction between individual and external objective matters,which is accompanied with interaction between internal desire and external matters.The activity of seven emotions bases on essence of zang-fu organs,being regulated by five zang viscera.Heart is the upstream controller,liver is the key organ to maintain normal emotionds,spleen and stomach is the hub of emotional activities,lung is the auxiliary organ, kidney is origin of emotional generation.Five zang viscera's cooperation and interaction generate the seven emotions.

In this study we present our experiences with the reverse sural fasciocutaneous flap to reconstruct the distal lower limb soft tissue defects caused by traumatic injuries. These flap graftings were carried out from Oct. 2010 to Dec. 2012 in our department. The series consisted of 36 patients, including 21 men and 15 women with an average age of 46.2 years (14-83 years) and with a medium follow-up period of 18 months (12-24 months). Of all the cases of acute trauma, there were 10 cases of trauma of distal tibia, 9 cases of trauma of perimalleolus, and 17 cases of trauma of midfoot and forefoot. Related risk factors in the patients were diabetes (2 cases), advanced age (>65 years, 3 cases) and cigarette smoking (6 cases). The reverse flow sural island flap irrigation depended on lower perforators of the peroneal artery. The fasciocutaneous pedicle was 3-4 cm in width and the anatomical structures consisted of the superficial and deep fascia, the sural nerve, short saphenous vein, superficial sural artery together with an islet of subcutaneous cellular tissue and skin. The most proximal border of the flap was only 1.5 cm away from the popliteal skin crease and the pivot point was 5-7 cm above the tip of the lateral malleolus. All the flaps survived. No arterial crisis occurred in any case. The venous congestion occurred in 2 cases and got better after raising the limbs and bloodletting. Only in an old man, 1.5 cm necrosis of distal margin of his flap occurred and finally healed after continuous dressing change. One-stage skin grafting was performed, and all the donor sites were sutured and successfully healed. It was concluded that the reverse sural fasciocutaneous flap is safe and reliable to extend to the proximal third even near the popliteal skin crease. We also concluded this flap can be safely and efficiently used to treat patients with large and far soft-tissue defects from the distal leg to the forefoot with more versatility and it is easier to reach the recipient sites.

Objective To explore the reasons why patients with Keshan disesse complicated with hypertension and their interaction in Fuyu County, Heilongjiang Province. Methods Fifty-three patients with Keshan disease were investigated in January, April and July in 2007. Blood pressure was measured and the risk factors of hypertension were investigated. According to the diagnostic criteria of hypertension, patients were divided into hypertension group and non-hypertension group, and then the risk factors of hypertension, as well as the course of Keshan disease, were compared between the two groups. The risk factors include age, gender, family history of hypertension, salt intake in diet, smoking, drinking and obesity. Results The age of hypertension group[(57.83±8.89)years] was significantly higher than that of non-hypertension group [(51.53 ± 9.43)years, t = 2.3630, P < 0.05) ;while the course of Keshan disease in non-hypertension group [(31.63 ± 8.66)years] was notably longer than that in hypertension group [(25.08±11.41)years, t = 2.0224, P < 0.05] ;No statistically significant difference in gender, family history of hypertension, salt intake in diet, smoking, drinking and obesity was observed between the two groups(χ2 = 0.0072,0.1779,0.0029,0.1555,0.119,0.7679, all P > 0.05). Conclusions Age might be an important factor in patients with Keshan disease accompanied by hypertension, and the role of other risk factors of hypertension should not be overlooked;whether Keshan disease and hypertension can affect each other needs further investigation.

Objective To compare various risk factors of bipolar disorders with and without suicidal behavior. Methods A total of 5452 inpatients were divided into 2 groups; with (n=1739)and without (n=3713) suicidal behavior within 1 week. Socio-demographic and clinical data were compared between two groups. Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess risk factors of bipolar disorders with suicidal behavior. Results Compared to without suicidal behavior group, the suicidal behavior group had significantly higher rate of the following characteristics:older age [34.8±13.6 vs. 33.3±12.8, t=-3.46, P<0.01], female (58.3％vs. 52.7％,χ2=14.83, P<0.01), history of mental trauma (10.6％vs.7.8％,χ2=10.72, P<0.01), history of suicide (4.1％vs. 0.1％,χ2=140.11, P<0.01), family history of suicide (6.7％vs. 3.9％,χ2=20.22, P<0.01), family history of mental illness (33.8％vs. 29.6％,χ2=9.33, P<0.01) and history of suicide (4.1％ vs. 0.1％, χ2=140.11, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR: 1.192, 95％CI:1.043-1.363), older age (OR: 1.008, 95％CI: 1.003-1.013), history of mental trauma (OR: 1.355, 95％CI:1.083-1.696), history of suicide (OR:39.139, 95％CI:12.230-125.256) and family history of suicide (OR:1.648, 95％CI: 1.223-2.221) were significantly correlated with suicidal behavior in bipolar disorders. Conclusions The study indicates that female, older age, history of mental trauma, history of suicide and family history of suicide may be the key independent risk factors to suicidal behavior in bipolar disorders.
