Objective In order to know first aid awareness and training needs of non-medical college students in Shiyan city,and to provide the basis for an efficient first-aid training.Methods A total of 1063 non-medical colleges in Shiyan city were surveyed by random sampling method.Results 64.61% of students awared of their own lack of knowledge of first aid,only 3.8 % feel rich;based on the first aid knowledge they obtained at present,46.92 % did not hesitate to rescue the stranger.After receiving systematic training,the rate rise to 78.9 %,68.09 % of students worried about their lack of first aid skills were the biggest obstacle for them to implement of rescue;98.3% of the students asked to undergo first aid training,92.27% of students like approach first aid skills was hands-on model.33.03% of students believe that medical schools were the best institutions to undertake emergency training,23.46% of students chose the hospital.Conclusion Non-medical college students in Shiyan city have a bad awareness for firstaid knowledge and a strong desire for training.It is necessary that relevant departments will formulate targeted training programs to improve college students' first-aid response and improve regional emergency level.

We used a meq-deleted attenuated MDV-I strain GX0101Δmeq as a vector to construct a recombinant virus expressing the exogenous gene NDV-F. The ORF of exogenous gene NDV-F was inserted into the eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(-). Then, the expression cassette of NDV-F which contains the CMV promoter was amplified. Simultaneously, we amplified the selected gene Kan+ expression cassette and inserted them into the PMD18-T vector. Tandem expression cassettes were amplified using primers containing the 50-bp homologous arm of MDV-US2. The PCR product was electroporated into EL250 host bacteria containing GX0101Δmeq. Then, the Kan+ expression cassette was deleted from the recombinant virus genome using 1% arabinose. The plasmid of the positive clone which the Kan+ expression cassette was deleted was extracted and transfected into CEFs to rescue the recombinant virus. The recombinant virus was injected into chickens to observe its growth and replication. The recombinant virus rMDV-F containing the exogenous gene NDV-F was rescued successfully. The recombinant virus could duplicate and express well in CEFs, and grow and replicate well in chickens. Using GX0101Δmeq as a vector, combined with a recombinant system of Red E/T and FLP/FRT, we constructed a recombinant virus that expressed the exogenous gene NDV-F. This study could lay the foundation for further study of recombinant viruses.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is a clinical and radiological entity,caused by a variety of reasons.We report a case of rhabdomyolysis complicated by posterior reversible encephalopathy and suggest that giving fluids early,use of diuretics and alkalization of urine may be reasonable for patients with rhabdomyolysis.Monitoring blood pressure is noteworthy to prevent target organ damage,and if patient condition steadily deteriorates,hemodialysis should be initiated.

ObjectiveTo assess the level of internal exposure to PCP in a community population in Shanghai, to investigate the factors affecting the level of PCP, and to analyze the correlation between the exposure and thyroid hormone levels. MethodsA total of 464 residents of a community in Shanghai were selected as the study subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted to obtain the demographic information, dietary situation, lifestyle and behavioral habits, and disease history of the individuals, and blood samples were collected. Gas chromatography-electron trap was applied to determine the PCP levels in serum. Multicategorical logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the possible influencing factors of PCP exposure in humans. Thyroid hormone levels were used as the dependent variable and serum PCP as the independent variable. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to assess the association between PCP and thyroid hormones in the community population after controlling the confounding factors such as age, gender, literacy, annual personal income, and chronic diseases. ResultsThe detection rate of serum PCP in 464 subjects was 90.3%, and the median serum PCP level was 0.43 μg·L-1. The differences in PCP levels among different age groups were statistically significant. There were no significant differences in PCP levels among different gender and BMI groups. The study of PCP exposure factors showed that age, frequency of using plastic products, consumption of freshwater fish, type of occupation, annual income, and consumption of tea or coffee were the potential influencing factors for PCP exposure. Among them, age, frequency of using plastic products, consumption of tea or coffee, and consumption of freshwater fish were positively associated with PCP levels, and annual personal income was negatively associated with it. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that among men, PCP levels were positively correlated with TSH (b=0.105, 95%CI:0.017‒0.313) and negatively correlated with FT4 (b=-0.026, 95%CI:-0.057‒0.004), and among women, PCP levels were positively correlated with TSH (b=0.092, 95%CI:-0.211‒0.904) and FT3 (b=0.017, 95%CI:-0.058‒0.230) and negatively correlated with FT4 (b=-0.013, 95%CI:-0.011‒0.037). ConclusionSerum PCP detection is common among community residents in Shanghai. Different demographic characteristics or behavioral habits may increase or decrease PCP exposure. PCP exposure then affects human thyroid hormone levels.
