Hospital culture plays a more and more important role,among various factors that influence employee satisfaction.Study on hospital culture is gradually growing out of a pure conceptual research and emerging into an area of correlation analysis. Our studies on the hospital culture developments and employee satisfaction in a tertiary hospital,analyzed the correlations between hospital culture and employee satisfaction and its impact,with recommendations for reform strategies.

AIM: To observe the influence of rofecoxib, a non steroidal anti inflammatory drug, administrated for a long term on the knee joints cartilage of rats. METHODS: An experimental model of osteoarthritis of left knee in the early stage was induced by cutting achilles tendon in rats, the right knee providing a control. The rats of one group were given rofecoxib orally, and the rats in another group were given saline as a control. After 100 days, the histopathology, ultrastructure, and histochemistry changes on the knee joints cartilage were monitored. RESULTS and CONCLUSION: Rofecoxib, administrated for 100 days, had no harmful influence on chondrocyte and collagen, and could increase proteoglycan of cartilage in some degree in rats.

Cerebral vasospasm is the main reasons of cerebral infarction and delayed ischemic neurological deficit in patients with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage. At present, the research of cerebral vasospasm is relatively focused on the spasmogens in bloody cerebro-spinal fluid. This article reviews the mechanisms of cerebral vasospasm induced by the major spasmogens in the bloody cerebrospinal fluid after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Objective To investigate the changes of growth arrest and DNA damage inducible gene ?(GADD45?)expression during 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation and analyze the regulative role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?) on GADD45? gene expression in matured 3T3-L1 adipocytes.Methods 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were cultured in vitro and differentiated into the matured adipocytes.TNF-? in different concentrations(0.1,1.0,10.0 ?g/L) was added into the culture medium of fully differentiated adipocytes(day 10) for various times(0.5,2,6,12,24 h).The levels of GADD45? gene mRNA expression were evaluated by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results With the 3T3-L1 preadipocytes being differentiated into the matured adipocytes,the level of GADD45? gene mRNA expression was downregulated and reached the lower level in fully differentiated adipocytes.There was a significant difference between any 2 detected phases in the levels of GADD45? gene mRNA expression(P0.05).Treatment of day 10(3T3-L1) adipocytes with TNF-? of different concentrations resulted in a significant increase in the level of GADD45? gene mRNA expression.The induction effect of TNF? on GADD45? gene mRNA expression generally tended to be reinforced with the elongation of time course.Conclusions GADD45? gene may be involved in adipocyte differentiation and adipogenesis.TNF-? can upregulate the mRNA expression of GADD45? gene in matured adipocytes.The induction effect of TNF-? on GADD45? gene expression is generally(time-)correlated.
