Objective To explore the personality traits and professional profile of pharmacists, and compare the personality with other majors. Methods This study used 15FQ + personality factor questionnaire for comparing 92 pharmacists,who had been working more than 5 years in pharmacy department of general hospital,with 1064 other different professional staffs,who also had been working more than 5 years. Results The results showed that fA (17.61 ±3.58),fG (16.05 ±5.00),fI (15.82 ±4.26) ,tN (16.74 ±3.78) and fQ3 (18.04 ±3.28)scores of pharmacists were significant higher (P ＜ 0. 05 ), while fC ( 10.61 ± 4.16 ), fE ( 10.84 ± 4.14 ), fL ( 6.33± 4.15 ) and fQ2 ( 8.37 ± 3.94) scores were significant lower (P ＜ 0.05 ). Comparing pharmacists with dentists,fL was significant higher (P＜ 0. 05 ). Comparing with clinical and medical imaging profession, there were significant difference on fA,fI,fL, fM, fQ2 (P ＜ 0.05 ). Comparing with liberal arts and engineering, there were significant difference on fB, fC, fE, fI, fL, fQ1, fQ2 (P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion Comparing with other different professional staffs ,pharmacists have their own personality traits, which are positive, perseverance, sensitive serious, self-discipline and so on. It provides a scientific basis for pharmacists selection and training.

Doctor's degree is the highest degree for medical education.Nowadays,medical doctor candidates in more and more medical universities are requested to publish research papers in intemational journals embodied in Science Citation Index(SCI),or they can not graduate with doctor's degree.So,it is significant for medical doctor candidates to learn the related knowledge about SCI and Impact Factor(IF).

Objective:To evaluate the effect of mucosal administration of altered collagen Ⅱ(CⅡ)263-272 peptide(267Q→A,270K→A and 271G→A) on collagen induced arthritis(CIA),and to explore the mechanism of the inhibitory effect of the altered CⅡ263-272 peptide on CIA.Methods:CIA was induced in Lewis rats by immunization with bovine CⅡ.Altered CⅡ263-272 peptide was given intranasally beginning from the onset of arthritis(100 ?g/dose,daily for 5 doses and continuing every other day for other 7 doses).Wild CⅡ263-272 peptide(100 ?g/dose) or PBS was administered as controls with the same procedure.Therapeutic effects were evaluated by arthritis scores,body weight change,and joint pathologic scores.The anti-CⅡ antibody and its subtypes were measured with ELISA.The cytokines of IFN-? and IL-10 were measured with ELISA.The induction of regulatory T cells was assessed by FACS analysis of percentage of peripheral CD4+CD25+ T cells,and by real-time PCR analysis of the expression of Foxp3 and TGF-? mRNA.Results:(1) Following treatment with the altered CⅡ263-272 peptide,arthiritis scores were reduced and body weight was increased.The mean arthritis scores of rats treated with altered peptide,wild peptide and PBS were 2.50?2.43,4.50?2.23 and 6.33?2.73,respectively.The altered peptide could retard the histologic lesion of the joints.(2) The titers of anti-CⅡ antibodies IgG and IgG1 in the three groups were similar,but the IgG2a in altered peptide-treated rats decreased markedly as compared with PBS-treated rats(0.56?0.19 vs 0.95?0.29,P

Objective To study the function of LSD1 in the development of neurons and the influence of LSD1 on mood and memory-related behavior in mice. Methods The LSD1(flox / flox) transgenic mice were crossed with Nestin?cre(Tg) transgenic mice, using Cre?LoxP recombination system, to generate LSD1 conditional knockout of neural stem cell ( LSD1?CKO) mice, LSD1(flox/ flox) Nestin?cre(Tg) mice, and LSD1(flox/ flox) mice as control. The neuron proliferation in LSD1?CKO mice was further detected by immunofluorescence staining. At the same time, the mood and memory?related behavior of LSD1?CKO mice were examined using several methods:sucrose preference test ( SPT) , forced swimming test ( FST) and novel?object recognition ( NOR) assay. Results In the LSD1 brain?specific CKO mice, the neuron proliferation rate in the hippocampus was significantly reduced ( P=0. 023 ) , the preference for sucrose was reduced ( P =0. 0075 ) , immobility duration during the forced swimming test was increased (P<0. 05), and LSD1?CKO mice also exhibits memory?decline (P=0. 0019) during the novel?object recognition test. Conclusions Depletion of LSD1 in mouse brain neural stem cells leads to significant reduction of the neuron proliferation in the hippocampus. LSD1?CKO mice show more negative emotions and memory impairment.

Objective To study the differential proteome of kidney between lupus nephritis mouse and normal mouse.Methods The proteins of kidney were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE).The gels stained by silver were scanned by ImageScanner and analyzed by PDQuest software.Results About 573?52 and 658?43 protein spots were found in the three maps of control group and LN group respectively;the match ratio was 83% and 87% respectively.One hundred and fourteen spots were found increased that showed a two fold increase as comparing to control group.Conclusion A significant difference in protein expression of LN mouse kidney was found and may be related to the pathogenesis of LN.

Objective To explore the role of somatosensory evoked potentials elicited by paraspinal stimulation in the detection of spinal cord lesions.Methods Patients with clinically suspected spinal cord lesions underwent somatosensory evoked potentials(SEPs)and spinal cord conduction velocity(SCCV)test using paraspinal stimulating method.96 patients aged 15 to 75 years old with suspected spinal cord lesions of various aetiologies were tested.36 patients had demyelinating disease of the spinal cord,26 had sub-acute combined degeneration of the spinal cord,19 had myelopathy,10 had acute myelitis,5 had spinal cord corhpression.Results Paraspinal stimulation elicited somatosensory evoked potentials were Performed on all 96 patients,68 of whom underwent spinal MRI as well.SEPs and SCCV were found abnormal in a high ratio in all kinds of spinal cord lesions ; in general,78 among the 96 patients had abnormal SEPs with a sensitivity of 81.25%.27 out of 36 with demyelinating disease of the spine had abnormal SEPs with a sensitivity of 75.00%,23 out of 26 with subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord had abnormal SEPs with a sensitivity of 88.46%,8 out of 10 with acute myelitis had abnormal SEPs,15 patients with myelopathy having abnormal findings,all 5 patients with spinal cord compression had abnormal SEPs.42 of 68 patients undergoing MRI revealed to be abnormal,in which 35 patients also had abnormal SEPs.The other 26 patients had normal spinal MRI,in which 21 patients had abnormal SEPs.Conclusions Paraspinal stimulation somatosensory evoked potentials and spinal cord conduction velocity may objectively document the abnormalities of electrophysiology,which occurs earlier than those of anatomy and radiological finds, therefore it may detect the dysfunction of spinal cord at an early stage.It is even more useful in the detecting of the metabolic myelopathy,which can hardly be detected by MRI.This technique is simple,inexpensive, and maybe useful in the diagnosis for patients with suspected spinal cord lesions.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of electron beam computed tomography (EBCT)in the diagnosis of atherosclerotic aortic ulcer.Methods Sixty-eight consecutive patients(55 men and 13 women,aged 40—85 years,mean 65.12?9.55 years)with atherosclerotic aortic ulcer,who underwent EBCT scans from December 2001 to December 2004,were studied retrospectively.Contrast- enhanced continuous volume scanning(CVS)was performed by Imatron C-150XP EBCT scanner with 6 mm or 3 mm slice thickness and 100 milliseconds acquisition time.The scan was started 18—30 s after the injection of 80—100 ml contrast medium at the rate of 3.5—4.5 ml/s.Results In sixty-eight patients with atherosclerotie aortic ulcer,50 patients had acute aortic syndromes,36 had intramural hematomas,15 had atherosclerotic aortic aneurysms,3 had aortic dissections.46 patients with progresive ulcer usually had acute aortic syndrome while 22 patients with stable ulcer didn't(P

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of digital auditory activation and touching intervention on infants with cerebral dysfunction.Methods388 infants with perinatal high-risk factors and abnormal result of Denver Development Screening Test (DDST) were randomly divided into group A (n=135), group B (n=128) and group C (n=125), and treated with digital auditory activation combined with touching (group A), simple touching (group B) and simple drug (group C) with 10 days as a course. All infants were tested with DDST after one therapeutic course, and tested again with DDST after the infants of group B and group C treated continuously for six therapeutic courses; and all infants were assessed with the Gesell development quotient (DQ) after six months.ResultsAfter one therapeutic course, normal rate of DDST was 71.11% in group A, 26.69% in group B and 20.00% in group C. After six therapeutic courses, that was 90.37 % in group A, 62.50 in group B and 40.00% in group C. After six months, the children with the Gesell DQ over 86 scores was 125 (92.60%) in group A, 90 (70.31%) in group B and 62 (49.60%) in group C. There were significant differences among three groups ( P<0.01).ConclusionThe digital auditory activation combined with touching has short therapeutic course and high efficacy, so it is a good therapeutic method for infants with cerebral dysfunction.
