Objective To explore the influence of comprehensive intervention on social support and quality of life of the family members of patients with schizophrenia.Methods 80 family members of patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group (40 cases for each group).Apart from general hygiene education,the intervention group received a 1-year targeted comprehensive intervention.Social support assessed scale (SASS) and comprehensive assessment of the quality of life questionuaire (GQOLI-74) were used to make assessment of social support and quality of life of the family members before and after the intervention.Results After intervention,the total score of SASS and scores of its three dimensions including objective support,subjective support and utilization of social support,the total score of GQOLI-74 and scores of its three dimensions including physical function,psychological function and social function were all significantly increased and higher than the same period of the control group.Conclusions The comprehensive intervention can improve the social function and quality of life of the family members of patients with schizophrenia..

Objective:To compare the efficacy of citalopram alone and citalopram combined with psychotherapy in patients with postpartum depression. Methods:Fifty-eight women who met CCMD-3 criteria for postpartum depression were randomly assigned to 2 groups. Group A was treated with citalopram 20mg daily alone, group B with citalopram 20mg daily combined with psychotherapy, both for six weeks. Hamilton rating scale (HAMD) was evaluated at baseline and after 1, 2, 4 and 6 weeks of treatment. Results:HAMD scores were decreased with statistical significance since week 1 in group A and since week 2 in group B. At different time points the HAMD scores in group A were lower than those in group B with statistically significant difference. Conclusion: Citalopram combined with psychotherapy was more effective than citalopram alone in the treatment of postpartum depression.

Objective To investigate the influence of panton-valentine leucocidin (PVL) on expression of Toll like receptor 4(TLR4)/nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) signals and IL-8,IL-6 in THP-1 macrophages,and to study the mechanism of PVL-related lung tissue damage.Methods THP-1 cells were cultured in the presence of 100 nmol/L phorbol-12-myristate 3-acetate (PMA) for 48 h to induce monocytemacrophage differentiation.rPVL-F and rPVL-S were induced and expressed from the recombinant plasmid,respectively purified with chromatographic column. After that,THP-1 macrophages were incubated with rPVL,and then ELISA was performed to test expression of IL-8 and L-6 in supernatants fluid; RT-PCR was performed to detect expression of IL-8,L-6 and TLR4 ; NF-κB was analyzed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry method.Results PVL was able to induce expression of IL-8 and IL-6 in THP-1 macrophages in time-and concentration-dependent manners.PVL could also significantly promote the activation of TLR4/NF-κB signals.Conclusion PVL can activate the expression of TLR4/NF-κB signals,and increased the high expression of inflammatory cytokines.Maybe it's the mechanism of action of PVL exerts the function of lung tissue damage.

Objective To develop a father involvement scale and test the reliability and validity.Methods The scale was developed based on previous studies and depth interviews with more than 20 fathers.Totally 1565 families from 3 provinces were recruited.Item analysis was conducted to identify valid items.Then the construct validity of the scale was tested by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA & CFA).Finally the reliability and criterion validity of the scale was examined.Results The scale was consisted of 8 factors wihch were involvement attitude,activities and playing,accompany and taking care of children,attentiveness,discipline and school encouragement,economic support,protection,support mother.They explained 59.94％ of the total variance.Besides,the CFA results demonstrated a satisfactory construct validity of the scale (RMSEA =0.05,NFI =0.95,NNFI =0.96,CFI =0.97).The Cronbach(')s α coefficients of the scale was 0.897,and those of its 8 were 0.828,0.788,0.764,0.781,0.671,0.754,0.528 and 0.693 respectively.Conclusion The Father Involvement Scale with 8 factors has a good reliability and validity,demonstrating it a valid tool to measure father involvement in China.

Objective To explore the current situation of basic psychological needs satisfaction (BPNS) and the relationship between index of well-being and BPNS among young workers in China.Methods The samples consisting of 5972 young workers were selected by stratified and random sampling according to the proportion.The Chinese vision of the Basic Needs Satisfaction in General Scale and the Index of Well-being Scale were used.Results The overall situation of BPNS of young workers (4.36 ± 0.71) was good,satisfied state of relatedness need (SSRN,4.70 ± 1.05) was the highest,satisfied state of autonomy need (SSAN,3.96 ± 1.21) and blocked state of autonomy need (BSAN,4.08 ± 1.17) were lower,blocked state of relatedness need (BSRN,3.20 ± 1.26) was the lowest; education and income had interaction on SSRN (F0.05(6.5948) =4.068,P ＜ 0.01)while there was no difference between gender on all of the dimensions.Pearson correlation analysis showed that all the dimensions of BPNS were significantly related to the index of well-being;and linear regression analysis showed that SSAN,SSRN and BSAN could forecast the index of well-being (adjR2 =0.339),β =0.457,0.186,-0.102 respectively.Conclusion The overall situation of BPNS of young workers is good ; and adjustment of SSAN,SSRN and BSAN could improve the index of well-being of young workers.

Objective To study the effect of family intervention on treatment compliance and social function for patients with schizophrenia.Methods 76 patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group with 38 cases in each group.The patients in both groups were treated with antipsychotics,the control group was only given general hygiene education,while the intervention group was given targeted systematic family intervention for 1 year.The Nurse-Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (N-BPRS),Social Disability Screening scale (SDSS),Insight and Treatment Attitudes Questionnaire (ITAQ),medication adherence questionnaire were used before and after the intervention and then the recurrence rate within 1 year was calculated.Results At the end of 1 year the total scores of NBPRS,SDSS,medication adherence questionnaire significantly decreased in the intervention group and were signif-icantly lower than those of the control group at the same period,while the total score of ITAQ significantly increased in the intervention group and was significantly higher than those of the control group at the same period.The recurrence rate of the intervention group was significantly lower than the control group.Conclusions The family interventions contribute to promote insight recovery of the patients with schizophrenia ef-fectively and improve their treatment compliance,reduce recurrence and to promote the recovery of its so-cial function.

Objective To investigate effect of PDTC on the NF-κB activation and the expression of inflammatory cytokines in THP-1 macrophages induced by rPVL.Methods The study was divided into three groups:PBS-treated control group,rPVL-treated group and PDTC group which was given 100 μmol/L PDTC at 60 min before rPVL exposure.Immunohistochemistry method was used to test the translocation of NF-κB protein; the expression of NF-κB and IκB protein was analyzed by Western blot; RT-PCR and ELISA was performed to test expression of IL-8 and L-6 in THP-1 macrophages.Results Compared with rPVL-treated group,the activation of NF-κB and the expression of IL-8 and L-6 in PDTC group was significantly decreased.The protein secretions of IL-8 and IL-6 were reduced to 6.78 ng/ml,3.88 ng/ml,receptively(P ＜0.05).Conclusion The inhibitor of NF-κB,PDTC,could significantly decrease the secretion of pro-inflammatory in THP-1 macrophages by rPVL,and it suggested that PDTC played an important role in protecting tissues from damage induced by rPVL.
