Five iron nutritional resources were chemically determined for twelve nutrients and three deleterious items. It was found that they contained 36 to 432 mg% iron and 48 to 67 g% protein. The relative biological value (RBV) of iron of rabbit liver powder, poultry liver powder, fish liver powder, pig liver powder and yeast powder were 88.5%, 85.5%, 48.0% and 132.5% respectively, as measured by prophylactic assay in rats (using ferrous sulfate as reference standard). Most of these resources are common foods, thus these must be of no trouble for infant iron supplements and easily acceptable for their mothers.

ObjectiveTo discuss the causes, preventions and treatments of fractures after spinal cord injury (SCI).MethodsA retrospective survey was carried out in the clinical data of 22 patients who suffered fractures after SCI in China Rehabilitation Research Center (CRRC) during 1988-2001.ResultsAll the patients showed osteoporosis or osteopenia in different degrees,fractures occured unconsciously or during minor force,without symptoms after fractures.It was difficult to discover and often was neglected. 15 patients were cured by surgical operation.Conclusions Osteoporosis is the pathological base of fractures after SCI, excess loading stress in the diaphysis is the main cause during joint movement passively, it is important to emphasize preventions and treatments of osteoporosis on early stage and the health propaganda and education is needed.

Orthogonal descriptors is a viable method for variable selection, but this method strongly depend on the orthogonalisation ordering of the descriptors. In this paper, we compared the different methods used for order the descriptors. It showed that better results could be achieved with the use of backward elimination ordering. We predieted Rf value of phenol and aniline derivatives by this method, and compared it with classical algorithms such as forward selection, backward elimination, and stepwise procedure. Some interesting hints were obtained.

Objective To understand the status of depression and compare with the same age group of Chinese norms of CES-D in urban areas and analyze its potential influencing factors among male nursing undergraduates.Methods In this cross-sectional study,the CES-D and self-made questionnaire were administrated to 102 male nursing undergraduates from two schools of nursing through two-stage random sampling.Results The prevalence of depression was 14.0%,and the score of nursing undergraduates was (11.00±6.37) points,which had no significant difference from the scores of the same age group of Chinese norms in urban areas.Univariate analysis showed that coming from countryside,worse interpersonal relationship,worse career prospect,getting no attention from parents had some significant association with depression.Multivariate analysis showed that worse career prospect and getting no attention from parents associated with lower CES-D scores.Condusions For male nursing undergraduates,efforts should be given from the aspects of families and career prospects to improve their psychological health condition,and reserve qualified resources for nursing profession.

Objective To observe the efficacy of cumulative dose of polyethylene glycol-interferon (Peg-IFN)α-2a combined with ribavirin in patients with decompensated hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver cirrhosis , and to evaluate the effects of anti-virus therapy on the progress of the disease . Methods From January 2005 to March 2009 ,patients with decompensated HCV-related liver cirrhosis were enrolled ,also included patients received partial splenic embolization .Peg-IFNα-2a combined with ribavirin therapy was given to patients whose blood cell met interferon (IFN) therapy standards .The dosage of Peg-IFNα-2a and ribavirin was adjusted according to the tolerance of the patients .After the treatment ,the patients were followed-up for 24 weeks .The patients whose blood cell did not meet IFN therapy standards and the patients unwilling to receive anti-virus therapy were assigned to control group and were followed-up for 96 weeks .The total amount of medication was calculated according to cumulative exposure dose . Sustained virological response (SVR ) , recurrence rate , liver function and disease progression were observed .The t test or Chi-square test was performed for comparison between groups and rate of disease progression was analyzed with Kaplan Meier curve .Results After anti-virus therapy , SVRs of patients with cumulative dose of Peg-IFNα-2a and ribavirin over 60% (include 60% ) were 27 .3%(12/44) and 27 .7% (13/47) ,respectively ;the recurrence rates were 7/19 and 35 .0% (7/20) ,respectively . In patients with cumulative dose less than 60% ,SVRs were 1/7 and 1/4 ,respectively ,and the recurrence rates were both 1/2 ;the differences of different doses was not statistically significant (all P>0 .05) .At the 24th week of follow-up after therapy ,the Child-Pugh score of combined therapy group was 7 .9 ± 1 .4 , which was lower than that before treatment (8 .5 ± 1 .2) ,and the difference was statistically significant (t=2 .33 ,P=0 .02) .At the 96th week of follow-up ,the Child-Pugh score of control group was 10 .0 ± 1 .6 ,which was higher than that before treatment (8 .5 ± 1 .4) ,and the difference was statistically significant (t=5 .82 , P<0 .01) .The disease progression rate of combined therapy group was 15 .7% , which was lower than that of control group (32 .4% ) ,and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4 .34 ,P= 0 .04) .Conclusion The application of non-standard dosage of Peg-IFNα-2a combined with ribavirin in the patients with decompensated HCV-related liver cirrhosis can achieve virological response once the cumulative dose reached certain standards ,improve Child-Pugh scores of patients and slow disease progression .
