Random clustering was conducted among a total of 1068 residents aged 18 years or older at a certain Shanghai community.And they completed a questionnaire survey.Logistic data processing and model building were performed.The respondents were willing to go to a community health center for the following reasons:close proximity (88.4%),excellent service attitudes (40.4%) and low drug prices (37.8%).No statistically significant differences existed in terms of first choices of community health service,occupation,monthly income and-walking distance (P > 0.05).However,statistically significant differences existed in education level,age and chronic diseases (P < 0.05).
2.Advances in functions of calmodulin in Alzheimer's disease
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2017;36(3):340-343
Calmodulin,as an important signaling regulatory protein,widely exists in eukaryotic cells and participates in a variety of physiological activities.Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a typical neurodegenerative diseasemostly affecting the old people.Senile plaques (SP) caused by amyloid protein deposition and neurofibrillary tangles (NTF) caused by over-phosphorylation of Tau protein in the brain are the two major neuropathological hallmarks of AD.Neuronal apoptosis induced by dysregulation of calcium homeostasis also plays a significant role during this pathological process.Recent studies have found that calcium and its downstream receptor,calmodulin,are closely associated with the pathogenesis and progress of Alzheimer's disease.This article reviews the current development and the latest research progress on the effects of calmodulin on β-amyloid protein generation and deposition,neurofibrillary tangle formation,synaptic plasticity in AD around the world,comprehensively discusses the role of calmodulin in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease.

BACKGROUND: Hereditary susceptibility is an important role in episode and development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Aggregation of monocyte in kidney tissue, differentiation to histocyte and reinforcement of signal are possibly closed to episode and development of DN in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Regulated upon activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) is a chemokine of C-C subtribe. It can mediate infiltration and activation of inflammatory cells and cause injuries of renal corpuscle and renal mesenchymal. This may be a key mechanism of episode and development of DM. Thus, RANTES gene may be one of the susceptible gene of DN. OBJECTIVE :To investigate correlation between RANTES gene promoter -28C/G polymorphism and DN in type 2 DM in Chinese. DESIGN: Case-contrast study. SETTING: Department of Endocrine, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College; Center of Diabetes Mellitus of Guizhou Province. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 143 patients with type 2 DM were recruited from the Department of Endocrine, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College and Department of Endocrine,Guizhou People's Hospital from September 2003 to September 2005. Among them, 53 cases had normoalbuminuria, 54 microalbuminuria and 36 macroalbuminuria. Another 55 healthy subjects who were selected from Center of Health Examination, Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College were regarded as control group. METHODS: 3-5 mL peripheral venous blood was collected from all subjects. RANTES gene promoter -28C/G genotype was detected with polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Allele frequency and genotypic frequency of RANTES gene promoter -28C/G; ② risk factor of DN was analyzed with Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: All 198 subjects were involved in the final analysis. ① Comparison of CG genotypic frequency of -28C/G: There was no significant difference between normal control group and DM group (P> 0.05); however, that in microalbuminuria group and macroalbuminuria group was higher than that in normoalbuminuria group (24.1%, 47.2%, 9.4%, P < 0.05), and that in macroalbuminuria group was also higher than that in microalbuminuria group (P < 0.05). ② Frequency of G allele of -28C/G: There was no significant difference between normal control group and DM group (P > 0.05); however, that in micro albuminuria group and macrealbuminuria group was higher than that in microalbuminuria group (12.0%, 23.6%, 4.7%, P < 0.05), and that in macroalbuminuria group was also higher than that in microalbuminuria group (P< 0.05). ③ Logistic regression analysis showed that positive genotype of -28G was related to DN (95% Cl:1.402-15.032, P =0.012). CONCLUSION: Positive genotype of RANTES gene promoter-28G may be related to DN.

· AIM: To observe the effects of PTEN and the tumor suppressor gene in proliferative LECs of the rabbit.·METHODS:Forty-two white rabbits were randomly divided into test group (36 rabbits) and control group (6rabbits). The transparent lenses of treated rabbits were operated with extra capsular cortex extraction, and the controls were kept untouched. The rabbits were sacririced at 1d, 3d, 1wk, 2wK, 1mo and 2mo after surgery.Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect proliferative cellular nuclei antigen (PCNA) as well as hybridization in situ and reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) were applied to detect phosphatase as well as tensin homology deleted on chromosome 10(PTEN) mRNA in lens equartor.·RESULTS:PCNA expression increased significantly to a high level at 1wk, began to reduce 2wk later, and recovered to the normal level 1 or 2mo after the surgery.PTEN mRNA expressed positively in normal rabbit LECs.The relative PTEN mRNA contents reduced greatly at 1dafter operation and remained low level at 3d. It began to increase slightly at 1wk, kept rising at 2wk and regained the normal expression after 1 or 2mo. There was inverse correlation between the PTEN mRNA and PCNA expression.·CONCLUSION: PTEN mRNA expresses positively in normal rabbit LECs plasma. PTEN participates in LECs proliferation and correlates with lens proliferative conditions.
