Randomized sampling-based questionnaire among 2000 community residents and personal contact with selected populations were conducted.Based on incidence or clinical featuxes of dermatosis and venereal diseases and recognition-related impact factor analyses,we provided evidence for community-based health education and behavior intervention.Our findings showed that itching was the most common skin disease,and fungous infection displayed an increasing trend.Viral diseases increased significantly in recent years.Patients failed to understand the skin diseases,although they partly had some misleading information about venereal diseases.Health care providers should perform more health education and behavior interventions regarding dermatosis and venereal diseases for community residents to improve their health condition or quality of life.

Purpose To investigate the effects of intervention with Tanakan on anterior ocular segment in diabetic retinopathy (DR) after retinal photocoagulation. Methods Prospective random controlled study was performed on 72 patients (72 eyes) with ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM),by obtaining and quantitatively analyzing the changes of anterior ocular segment including anterior chamber, anterior chamber angle, ciliary body and choroids before and the 3rd day and the 7th day after retinal photocoagulation. Results Three days after photocoagulation, significant elevated IOP and narrowed chamber angle were observed in control group and 4 eyes (11.11%) in Tanakan group (P

Objective To study the appearance of skin mucous glycoprotein in vitro on the activity of human lung cancer cells A549. Methods Used alkali extraction and DEAE-52 ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel chromatography purification salamander mucous glycoprotein; Salamander mucous glycoprotein inhibition of human lung cancer cells A549 was detected by MTT colorimetric method in vitro.ResuIts It showed that the total sugar content in the appearance of mucus was 4.23%, the relatively pure glycoprotein component, by SDS protein electrophoresis tests, it contained a single glycoprotein component, its molecular weight was about 30 kDa.With glycoprotein pure concentration increased from 1,10, 20,40μg/mL, the glycoprotein inhibition rate of A549 cells increased; when the glycoprotein concentration was 40 μg/mL, for 24 h action, the inhibition rate of A549 cells was up to 85.66 %, while the role of 48 h, the inhibition rate of A549 cells was up to 92.32%.Inhibition effect of mucus glycoprotein on A549 cell compared with positive control drug, had significant difference.ConcIusion Salamander mucus glycoproteins of human lung cancer cells has obvious inhibitory effect, can provide theoretical basis for the development of lung cancer drug resistance.

Objective To study the influence of carboxymethyl-chitosan(CM-chitosan)on chondro- cyte apoptosis induced by recombinant human interleukin-1?(rhIL-1?)and explore its mechanism.Methods Rabbit chondrocytes were isolated and cultured.Chondrocytes were pretreated with different concentrations of CM-chitosan for 1 h,then 10 ng/ml IL-1?were added into the culture medium.After 24 h,the apoptotic rates of chondrocytes were measured by flow cytometry with AnnexinⅤ-FITC and PI staining.The morphology of nuclei was observed by fluorescent microscopy with Hoechst 33342 staining.The mitochondrial membrane po- tentials were tested by confocal laser scanning microsocopy with Rhodamine-123 and ATP contents were mea- sured by luciferase reaction.Results CM-chitosan could inhibit chondrocyte apoptosis and restore the func- tion of mitochondria induced by IL-113 in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion CM-ehitosan can inhibit chondrocyte apoptosis by protecting mitochondrial function.

Objective To observe the effects of icarisid Ⅱ (ICS Ⅱ)on cognitive deficits and expression of synaptophysin(SYN)in chronic cerebral hypoperfusion(CCH)rat models.Methods 40 male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:normal group,sham operation group,model group and ICSⅡgroup.The model was established by permanent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion(BCCAO).ICS Ⅱ group was administered ICS Ⅱ at a dose of 8mg·kg -1 ·d -1 by gavage on 1st day after modeling.Sham group and CCH group were injected double -distilled water.The escape latency(s)and spatial probe times were measured by water maze test.Then,the morphology change and expression of SYN in hippocampal were assayed by HE and immunohistochemistry analysis.Results At the 1st month and 2nd month,the escape latency in the model group[(40.02 ±4.95)s,(42.29 ±5.75)s]were significantly prolonged compared with the sham operation group[(26.43 ±2.68)s,(26.84 ±2.06)s](t =4.89,5.06,all P <0.05).And those in the ICS Ⅱ group[(30.58 ±3.03)s,(29.19 ±4.23)s]were significantly decreased compared with the model group(t =3.63,4.10,all P <0.05).The space probe times in the model group[(2.6 ±0.89)times, (2.40 ±1.14)times]were significantly reduced compared with the sham operation group[(6.00 ±2.16)times, (5.75 ±2.16)times](t =3.23,4.18,P <0.05).And those in the ICS Ⅱ group[(4.40 ±1.34)times,(5.00 ± 1.58)times]were significantly increased compared with the model group (t =2.49,2.98,all P <0.05).The average optical density of SYN in hippocampal in the model group[CA1:(0.121 ±0.009),(0.122 ±0.008);CA3:(0.172 ± 0.028),(0.173 ±0.021 )]were significantly reduced compared with the sham operation group[CA1:(0.131 ± 0.006),(0.136 ±0.007);CA3:(0.218 ±0.035),(0.204 ±0.018)](t =2.43,2.53,3.12,2.34,P <0.05). Those in the ICS Ⅱ group[CA1:(0.131 ±0.006),(0.132 ±0.006);(0.212 ±0.02),(0.208 ±0.022)]were significantly increased compared with model group(t =2.41,2.41,2.31,2.77,all P <0.05).However,there was no statistically significant difference of those index between the normal group and sham operation group(P >0.05 ). Conclusion ICS Ⅱ can improve the cognitive deficits in CCH rat models and this effect may be associated with increased expressions of SYN in hippocampal.

Objective To investigate the effects of osteopontin (OPN) antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS-ODN)on OPN mRNA expressions and adherence to collagen gel of rat renal mesangial cell line (1097). Methods One AS-ODN complementary chain to rat OPN cDNA sequences was designed and synthesized. All nucleotides of different kinds of oligodeoxynucleotide (including antisense, sense and mismatch sense) were modified with phosphrothioate. All the ODNs were mixed with cationic liposome(DOTAP) respectively. The cultured 1097 cells were incubated with different concentration of ODN at 37t for 48 hours, then total RNA was extracted from cultured cell line with Trizol reagent. OPN mRNA expression was detected with RNA dot blot and RT-PCR. The cell adhesion ability was measured with collagen gel attachment lest. Results OPN mRNA expression of mesangial cells was higherly upregulated in the medium with calf serum compare to that in the medium without serum. AS-ODN could suppress the expression of OPN mRNA in mesangial cells with dose-dependent and its lowest inhibitory concentration was 2. 5 ?mol/L, but mismatch ODN or sense ODN have no inhibitory effects on the OPN mRNA expression of mesangial cells even if at a high ODN concentration of 30 ?mmol/L. AS-ODN-treated cells weakly adhered to the collagen gel and could be easily detached off. The mesangial cells treated with mismatch ODN or sense ODN still had a good adherent ability to collagen gel. Conclusions Calf serum can induce rat renal mesangial cells higherly expressing OPN mRNA. Osteopontin antisense oligodeoxynucleotide can specifically suppress mesangial cells OPN mRNA expression and adhension to collagen gel.
