Objective To explore the relationship between dysfunctional beliefs and attitudes on sleep and sleep disturbances before and after a short-term pharmacotherapy in patients with major depression. Methods Sixty-six (29 male, 37 female, 34.0±9.5 years old) patients with major depression were recruited before the treatment. Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep (DBAS) questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) were assessed before and after a 4-week antidepressant treatment. Results After the 4-week antidepressant treatment, depressive and anxiety symptoms were alleviated significantly, whereas sleep disturbance still persisted. And sleep quality was closely related with problematic sleep beliefs after the treatment.Conclusion Some evidences are provided for cognitive behavioral therapy during antidepressant therapy, and the therapy should be matched with problematic beliefs and attitudes.

Objective To explore the role of nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-?B)in regulating tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?)expression in acute pancreatitis (AP)in rats.Methods Sixty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups:the control group(n=32)and the AP group(n=32).Acute pancreatitis was induced by introperitoneal injection of caerulein,and the animals were killded at 12 hours,24 hours,36 hours,and 72 hours respectively.The activity of NF-?B and expression of TNF-? mRNA in the pancreas were determined by flow cytometry (FCM) method and semi-quantitave RT-PCR analysis,respectively,and the correlation coefficients were analyzed.Results The levels of activated NF-?B protein and TNF-?mRNA were all significantly higher in the AP group than those in the control group at any time point(P

OBJECTIVE To strengthen the self-protection consciousness of supply office staff to reduce the occupationol infection.METHODS From Sep 2006 to Aug 2007,97 supply office persons in 8 third-level hospitals and 2 second-level hospitals were carried on the related questionnaire survey.RESULTS 85.6% Of the staff were contaminated by blood,body fluid,secretion and the excreta,74.2% of them were contaminated for many times.Sharp instrument injunry occurcd among 77.3% of the staff,in which 14.4% were injured more than 5 times,About the knowledge of prevention,43.3% was familiar,47.4% only heared about them but not familiar and 9.3% never heared it.CONCLUSIONS The supply office staff is the high dangerous infection crowd,who are the suscepitable population of the sharp instrument injury.It is important to adopt the universal prevention and the standard preventive measures to reduce occupational infection occurrence.

Objective To study the relationship between the oncosis of pancreatic acinar cells and activa-tion of macrophage in rat model of acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods The pancreatic acinar cells were isolated by two-step enzyme digestion, and then they were divided into control group, AP group and test group. Pancreatic acinar cells were cultured with caerulein in AP group, with caerulein and endothelin in test group, and with culture medium in control group. The oncesis rate of the pancreatic acinar cells was detected after acridine orange and ethidium bromide fluorescent staining. The supernatant was collected to detect the release of amylase and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). The macrophages were cultured with 1 ml of supematant for 6 hours, and then the protein level of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was measured by ELISA. Results Few oncotic pancreatic acinar cells were observed in the control group, and the levels of amylase and LDH secreted by pancreatic acinar cells and TNF-α secreted by macrophage were (1175±165)kU/L, (846±118)U/L and (36±5)μg/L, respectively. Oncotic pancreatic acinar cells were observed in AP group, and the levels of amylase, LDH and TNF-α were (7130±680) kU/L, (4262±626) U/L and (155±18) μg/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in control group (t = 5.184, 4.277, 3.665, P < 0.05). The levels of amylase, LDH and TNF-α were even higher in test group, and they were (9240±1177) kU/L, (6937±893)U/L and (268±35)μg/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in AP group (t = 2.251, 2.825, 2.843, P < 0.05). Conclusions The release of amylase was changed as the oncosis of pancreatic acinar cells occurred. The secretion of TNF-α was along with the degree of oncosis of pancreatic acinar cells. The results of the study indicate that a relationship exists among the inflammatory response of macrophage, the release of contents of pancreatic acinar cells and the oncosis of the pancreatic acinar cells.

Objective To study the method and effect of exposure the recurrent laryngeal nerve(RLN) in preventing the damage of RLN in thyroid surgery. Methods One thousand and ten sides total and(or) subtotal thyroidectomies were operated on 574 cases with RLN exposure in our hospital in recent 9 years. Results The RLN injury rate was 0.3% in this series.Of them, permanent RLN injury occurred in 2 cases and temporary injury in 1. Conclusions The exposure of RLN can greatly decrease the nerve injure in thyroid surgery, especially in total lobectomy. The dissection of RLN must followed the principle of RLN exposure . RLN should be dissected around the inferior thyroid artery first, if the RLN is difficult to be found,then dissecting around the thyroid cartilage, or finding the cervical vagus inside of carotid sheath to find RLN should be done.
