The hygienic evaluation was carried out according to the Hygienic Standards for Excreta Sanitization GB 7959-87. Results The new type of urine diverting Ecosan toilets could meet the requirements of non-hazard treatment of excreta. Conclusion Such toilet system should be developed in most parts of Guangxi.

Objective To explore the work environment of male nurses of psychiatric in Chongqing, as well as the affecting factors. Methods The Professional Practice Environment (PPE) scale was applied to investigate the work environment of 400 male nurses of psychiatric in Chongqing. And the regression analysis was used to analyze the associated factors. Results staff relationships with physicianswas the subscale with the highest score (3.15 ± 0.41) of the PPE of the tested male nurses of psychiatric in Chongqing, whileteamworkwas the subscale with the lowest score (2.05±0.70). Locations and types of hospitals,nurse-patient ratios and education of male nurses were identified to be predictors of work environment (t=- 14.19- 7.63, P<0.01). Conclusions Multiple factors affecting the work environment of male nurses of psychiatric should be considered when nursing managers draw up management strategies.

Objective To explore motivation alteration influencing factors of internet addiction disorder (IAD) undergraduates.Methods The study sampled randomly 793 undergraduates from China University.According to CIAS-R and Young's internet addiction diagnostic criteria,a total of 37 internet addicts were selected.Internet addiction survey was used to study the motivation alteration influencing factors of IAD undergraduates.Results (1) The negative effect of internet using on academy,personal relationship etc.(damage from internet using) had a significant positive correlation with motivation alteration (r =0.672,0.699,0.658,P ＜ 0.01 ; r =0.653,0.673,0.628,P ＜ 0.01 ; r =0.604,0.681,0.703,P ＜ 0.01).(2) Benefit from psychological satisfactory level of internet using had no significant difference with motivation alteration.(3) Self-efficiency of behavioral control on using internet had a significant negative correlation with motivation alteration (r =-0.397,-0.370,P ＜0.05).Conclusion The motivation alteration of IAD undergraduates is influenced by the factors of damage from internet using,sense of achievement,self-efficiency of behavioral control on using internet and so on.

Objiective To assess the feasibility of transurethral non-muscle invasive resection or electrocautery of bladder tumor (TURBT) under local anesthesia. Methods Ten patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) history, who were confirmed NMIBC relapse by imaging and cystoscopy were selectively implemented TURBT or electrocautery under local anesthesia. Patients′anesthesia and tolerance under different local anesthesia were observed. Results All surgeries were completed successfully with clear base and without residual tumor. Tumor tissues were pathologically confirmed NMIBC. Patients were well tolerated to local anesthesia. The situation of pain scores were 0 point in 2 cases, 1 point in 4 cases, 2 points in 3 cases and 3 points in 1 case. Conclusions For NMIBC patients with poor surgery tolerance and high anesthetic risk and on the basis of low pressure on the bladder, selectively implementing TURBT or electrocautery under sufficient urethral anesthesia is feasible from the perspective of cancer cure and patients′tolerance.

The compounds were separated and purified by repeated column chromatographic methods on silica gel and HPLC, and the chemical structures of compounds were determined by spectral data analyses. Twenty-nine compounds were obtained and identified as isoimperatorin (1), β-sitosterol (2), imperatorin (3), bergapten (4), osthenol (5), xanthotoxin (6), isoimpinellin (7), dehydrogeijerin (8), phellopterin (9), isodemethylfuropinarine (10), 7-demethylsuberosin (11), alloimperatorin (12), xanthotoxol (13), isooxypeucedanin (14), alloisoimperatorin (15), demethylfuropinarine (16), 5-hydroxy-8-methoxypsoralen (17), oxypeucedanin methanolate (18), pabulenol (19), byakangelicin (20), marmesin (21), (+) -decursinol (22), heraclenol (23), oxypeucedanin hydrate (24), marmesinin (25), ulopterol (26), erythro-guaiacylglycerol-β-ferulic acid ether (27), threo-guaiacylglycerol-β-ferulic acid ether (28), and uracil (29). Compounds 5, 8, 11, 18, 21-23, and 26-28 were obtained from the roots of title plant for the first time.

Objective To observe the expression of aggrecanase 2 and a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP-3) in degenerate human lumbar intervertebral discs and their role in degeneration of the nucleus pulposus.Methods Pfirrmann classification was used to class degenerate intervertebral discs observed through MRI.They were divided into three groups:a control group (Pfirrmann grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ),a degeneration group (Pfirrmann grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ),and a severe degeneration group (Pfirrmann grade Ⅴ).A total of 45 cases accepted lumbar spine surgery for removing nucleus pulposus specimens.Each group contained 15 cases.After formalin-fixation and paraffin embedding,immunohistochemistry was used to detect aggrecanase 2 and TIMP-3 expression in the nucleus pulposus cells.Results The percentages of cells positive for aggrecanase 2 were (13.58 ± 7.76) ％,(33.48 ± 13.95) ％ and (56.00 ± 18.39) ％ in the control,degeneration and severe degeneration groups respectively.These differences had statistical significance.The percentages of cells positive for TIMP-3 were (34.78 ± 13.80) ％,(46.77 ± 10.98) ％ and (50.65 ± 16.45) ％,and these differences were again statistically significant.The aggrecanase 2/TIMP-3 ratios were also significantly different.Conclusion As the degree of degeneration of the nucleus pulposus increased,the expression of aggrecanase 2 and TIMP-3 rose,which indicates that both changes were closely connected with the degeneration.Their ratio was correlated with the degree of degeneration of the nucleus pulposus.

A new method was developed for the determination of 11 fat_soluble vitamins ( A, D, E and K) and its derivatives in vitamin tablets by ultra performance convergence chromatography ( UPC2 ) . The mobile phase was the mixture of supercritical CO2 and acetonitrile at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The separation was carried out on the Waters Acquity UPC2 HSS C18 SB 100 mm × 3. 0 mm i. d. , 1. 8 μm column. The UV detector was set at a wavelength of 284 nm. The limits of detection ( LOD) were 1. 5-2. 0 mg/L, and the calibration linear for VK1 , VK2 , VK3 and VB3 was 3-300 mg/L, linear for VA, VA palmitate, VA formic acid, VE, VE acetate, VD2 and VD3 was 5-300 mg/L, respectively. Its spiked recoveries were 97. 31%-98. 76%, and the relative standard deviations ( RSDs) were 0. 41%-0. 96%. The method is applicable for the determination of fat_soluble vitamins ( A, D, E and K) and Their derivatives in vitamin tablets.

Object To study the growth speed and dynamic spore production of CY-8202, which is an asexual strain of entomopathogenic fungi isloated from Cordyceps sinensis (Berk.) Sacc., to explore the method of artificial culture of CY-8208 strain, to assay its antibiotic activity and spectrem and to provide the experimental basis for studies of its active components. Methods Variations in colony diameter of the cordyceps hypha cultured on the fungi media were measured. The spore-count was used to determine the dynamic colony spore outputs of the hypha on several fungi media and water agar. The agar-piece method was used to test its antibiotic activity.Results There were linear relationships between the colony extensions and the culture times on common fungi media such as PDA medium, etc.. The amounts of spore produced by the single colony of the fungi were more than 10 7 and gradually increased, but the rates of increase tended to be gentle after 200 h. Antimicrobial tests against 22 microbial strains showed strong inhibition of gram positve bacteria including Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus tetragenus and Staphylococcus albus, and to gram negative bacteria, including Proteus vulgaris, Salmonella typhi, Aerobacter aerogenes and Salmonella sp., as well as weak inhibition of three mold strains and one actinomycetes strain, but no inhibition was observed in four yeast tested.Conclusion The growth activity and the spore-production ability of Cordyceps hypha are two important factors to infect validly its insect-host. For the growth activity, its strong penetration seems more important than its fast growth. The ability to product numerous spores of Cordyceps hypha may be an important mark of its strong infectivity to insect-host. The antimicrobial tests show that CY-8202 may secrete some metabolites which have a more broad-spectrum antibacterial activity than cordycepin isolated initially from Cordyceps militaris.
