Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic pulmonary disease which seriously affects the survival and long term quality of life in premature infants. Its pathogenesis is not yet clear. In recent years, the role of pulmonary vascular dysplasia in BPD has received increasing attention and evolved into a“vascular hypothesis”of the pathogenesis of BPD. Angiogenesis therapy based on this hypothesis has also made some progress in the treatment of BPD. This paper brielfy reviews the current research situation in this ifeld.

This article discusses the relevant factors which influence the assessment and diagnosis of personality disorder, especially the relationships between personality disorder and personality,personality disorder and the axis I conditions in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) system and its particularity of assessment. Such discussion helps to improve the clinical worker's comprehension to the psychopathology, personality disorder and their relationships.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between academic achievements of high school students and the results of California Psychological Inventory (CPI) of them. Method: Seventy-one higher school students were tested by CPI-RC (revised Chinese version). Their academic achievements were recorded. Results: Nine of the 23 CPI traits, such as Re (responsibility), So (socialize), Wb (comfortable), Ac (achievement), Py (psychologized), Cm (communality), To (tolerance), Sc (self-control), V3 (self accomplishment) had significant correlation with academic achievements (r=0.24～0.33, p＜0.05). Students with different prefer (literal arts or science) showed different CPI traits. Students with better academic achievements had higher scores on So, Sc, Wb, To and V3. Conclusion: CPI traits have some relationship to academic achievements of high school students and to their academic preference.

Objective To investigate non-psychiatric doctors' knowledge and attitude toward depression. Method Self-made Depressive Knowledge Questionaire (DKQ), which includes 24 items covering general knowledge, symptoms and other related questions of depression, were used in 346 non-psychiatric doctors who came from different grade general hospitals of Hunan. Results Average score of DKQ was 13.53±2.08,and corrective answering rates to different questions were 14.5％～95.4%.There were some associations between DKQ's score and grade of hospitals, subjects' education and attitude to depression. Conclusion It is necessary to re-educate non-psychiatric doctors with depressive knowledge.

Objective:To evaluate mental health status of medical students and to explore its related factors.Methods:877 medical students were tested by Symptom Checklist(SCL-90),Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire(CPS),and the stressful events items;240 of them were tested by Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ).Results:①Compared with the SCL-90 norm of youth group,medical students had higher scores ( P

Objective To explore the effects of borderline personality disorder (BPD) tendency and impulsivity on suicide ideation in counseling patients.Methods A total of 120 counseling patients were evaluated by the Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire (PDQ-4+),Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11).All participants were also interviewed with self-made structured clinical questionnaire for suicide ideation.Re sults ①Patients with suicide ideation had significantly higher score of BPD tendency ((6.02 ± 2.15) vs (3.91±2.31),t=5.164,P＜0.01),impulsivity ((72.05±8.58) vs (68.63±9.01),t=2.129,P=0.035) than patients without suicide ideation.There was still significant difference of BPD tendency between the two groups after controlling for gender(F=23.135,P＞0.01) but there was no significant difference of impulsivity (F=3.536,P＞0.05).②Logistic hierarchical regression analysis revealed that only BPD tendency (B=0.319;P=0.009;OR=1.375)had a significant role in the prediction of suicide ideation after controlling for gender and depressive diagnoses.Conclusion Compared with impulsivity,BPD tendency can better predict suicide ideation of counseling patients.

ObjectiveTo study the relationship between impulsive behavior and alexithymia in pupils in Changsha.Methods 702 pupils were tested with Barratt impulsivity scale (BIS-11) and Toronto alexithymia scale (TAS-20).Results ( 1 ) Male pupils had significantly higher scores of total BIS and non-planning impulsiveness than female (24.47 ± 5.30 vs 23.40 ± 5.59,P ＜ 0.05 ; 62.25 ± 9.46 vs 60.35 ± 9.91,P ＜ 0.05 ).Pupils in elder age group had only significantly higher total score of BIS than pupils in younger age group ( total:62.36 ± 9.69 vs 60.29 ± 9.68,P＜ 0.01 ).(2) Pupils with high impulsivity had significantly higher scores of total and factor scores of alexithymia than pupils with low impulsivity (total:57.43 ± 10.16 vs 46.55 ± 8.77,P ＜0.01 ).The total scores of BIS were positively correlated with total scores of alexithymia ( r =0.40,P ＜ 0.01 ) and factor scores of alexithymia ( r =0.25 ～ 0.33,P ＜ 0.01 ).Stepwise regression analysis revealed that total scores of BIS explained by DIF,DDF and EOT were 18％.ConclusionThere are certain gender and age differences in impulsivity impulsive behavior of 8 to 13 years old pupils.There exist the low to moderate correlations between impulsivity and alexithymia in pupils.

Objective To explore the correlation between the higher-order personality dimension(neuroticism) and the lower-order personality traits (alexithymia,dependence,self-criticism,perfectionism) in the sample of university students,and explore the effect of the higher-order personality dimension and lower-order personality traits to depression in the same sample.Methods A convenient sample of 563 university students from the two Universities College in Hunan province.These students were assessed with Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D),Depressive Experiences Questionnaire (DEQ),The twenty-item Toronto Alexithymia Scales (TAS-20),Frost multidimensional perfectionism scale (FMPS) and neuroticism subscale in EPQ.Results (1) There were significant relationships between the total score of CES-D,each depressive symptoms and 10 personality factors,such as neuroticism,doubts about action and so on (The coefficients ranged from 0.105 to 0.569,P ＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(2)Factor analysis and multiple linear regression on the neurotic showed that doubts about action,concerned over mistakes,difficulties identifying feelings (DIF),difficulties describing feelings (DDF),dependency,self-criticism and neuroticism belonged to the factor 1 (the factor load coefficients ranged from 0.574 to 0.775).(3) Neuroticism can explained 32.3 ％ variance of depression (R 2adj =0.323),after 6 personality factors entered the regression equation,such as difficulties describing feelings (DDF),parental criticism and so on,the explained variance of depression increased to 43.2％ (R2adj =0.432).Conclusion There are overlapping and interaction between personality traits which include self-criticism,dependency,difficulties describing feelings(DDF),difficulties identifying feelings (DIF),concerned over the mistakes and neuroticism personality dimensions.The depressed affect are effectively predicted by neuroticism which is a effectively predict factor of depression,personality traits included self-criticism,dependency,alexithymia and malajustment perfectionism have a gain function of depression base on the Neuroticism.

Objective: To explore the relation of psychological abuse and neglect in childhood and college students’ mental health. Methods: Cluster sampling was used to select 457 college students studying in the Central South University and Hunan Commercial College as subjects. The general information questionnaire,Child Psychological Abuse and Neglect Scale (CPANS) and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) were completed by all subjects. Results: 45.30% of the respondents experienced psychological abuse or neglect in childhood. The total score and scores of each factor of SCL-90 of the group of psychological abuse combined with neglect was above those of psychological-abuse group,neglect-group and neither-abuse-nor-neglect-group. Additionally,ten factor scores and total score of SCL-90 of neglect-group were distinctly higher than those of neither-abuse-nor-neglect-group. The scores of each aspect and sub-scale of CPANS were significantly correlated with every factor and total score of SCL-90(P

Objective Cancer, a disease induced by abnormally regulated cell growth and apoptosis, is imposing a global threat to human health.This study was to explore the effects of Chinese herbal extracts ( CHE) in inducing the apoptosis and inhibiting the proliferation of human lung cancer cells. Methods Human lung cancer A549 cells were divided into a negative control, a high-dose CHE (680 ng/mL), a medium-dose CHE (340 ng/mL), and a low-dose CHE (170 ng/mL) group.The inhibitory effect of CHE on the proliferation of the lung cancer cells was detected by CCK8 and LDH assays, the apoptosis of the cells was assessed by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry, and the expressions of hTERT mRNA, cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved PARP were deter-mined by RT-PCR and Western blot. Results CHE inhibited the proliferation of the A549 cells with an IC50 value of 510 ng/mL. Treatment with high-dose CHE for 48 hours significantly suppressed the proliferation of the cells, induced the release of LDH, and promo-ted the apoptosis of the cells by 72.3%.RT-PCR and Western blot showed that 24-hour treatment with medium-dose CHE reduced the expression of hTERT mRNA by 4 times that of the negative control and up-regulated the expressions of cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved
PARP. Conclusion Chinese herbal extracts can induce cell apoptosis by decreasing the expression of hTERT mRNA and increasing those of the cleaved caspase 3 and cleaved PARP proteins.
