Objective To investigate the incidence,correlative factors and prevention of perimenopausal symptoms.Methods 146 perimenopausal women were investigated by using Kupperman menopausal index(KMI),life event scale,improved social support scale and self-made inventory.Results We got 112 available data,the incidence of perimenopausal symptoms was 75.0%,58.0%was mild,15.2%was moderate,1.8%was sevcre.The main correlative factors of perimenopausal symptoms were inhabited environment,self emotional controllability,history of gynecologic diseases,history of depression,dysmenorrhea,premenstrual syndrome,menopause,score of life eventscale,improved social support scale.Conclusions The incidence of perimenopausal symptoms is high.It is also related to factors of society,family and mentality,except hypogonadism.Preventing perimenopausal symptoms according to its cirrelative factors may decrease its incidence and enhance the life quality of women.

OBJECTIVETo study the vasodilation effects of the Total alkali Sophora alopecuroids L (TASa) on rabbit thoracic aortic rings in vitro and the possible mechanisms.
METHODRabbit aortic rings were isolated and precontracted with noradrenaline (NA) and then were divided into six groups including control group, TASa group, TASa + 1 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) indomethacin (Indo), TASa + 1 x 10(-5) mol x L(-1) propranolol (Prop), TASa + 1 x 10(-10 mol x L(-1) N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA), TASa + removal of endothelium. The vasodilation effects of TASa were investigated. In addition, the thoracic aortic rings were pre-treated with TASa (40 mg x L(-1)) and then the thoracic aortic rings were treated with cumulative NA (110(-8)-110(-5) mol x L(-1)), KCl (6.3-100 mmol x L(-1)) or CaCl2 (110(-5)-110(-2) mol x L(-1)). The dose response curves of aortic rings were recorded.
RESULTTASa can relax isolated rabbit aorta and has an obvious concentration-dependent relaxation (r = 0.94, P < 0.01). The relaxant effect of TASa was no significant reducing by removal of endothelium and by treatment with L-NNA, Indo or Prop. In addition, TASa can decrease the dose response curves of aortic rings to NA, KCl or CaCl2.
CONCLUSIONThe vasodilation effects of TASa are related to not only inhibition of intracellular calcium release, but also reduction to calcium flow to the interior of the cell with blockage of calcium channels.

The mixed evaluation system uses the network platform as a carrier to construct a dynamic evaluation model that spans time and space between online and offline, between individuals and teams. Mixed evaluation system of physiology was performed for two years, and the process evaluation and the summative evaluation in the mixed evaluation system showed a good correlation, and the students' learning ability and learning effect showed consistency with the evaluation results. Practice has proved that the mixed evaluation system not only optimizes the traditional evaluation system, but also fully expands the five principles of formative evaluation; however, while reflecting the advantages of the network platform, it also exposes the defects of insufficient supervision of the network platform. Thus, we should further improve the mixed evaluation system of physiology.
