Chinese Journal of Health Management 2010;04(6):359-361
Objective To investigate mental health and personality characteristics of supercargoes. Methods Catell 16 Personality Factor Test (16PF) and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) were used in 470 supercargoes for quantitative analysis. Pearson correlation analysis, multiple regressions and t test were used for data analysis. Results The participants showed a significantly lower score, although specific items were higher than normal models. There was no difference in different age groups. 16PF were positively correlated with total score of SCL-90, except for gregariousness, intelligence, ambition, fantasy,worldly-wisdom,creativity and independency. All factors in SCL-90 were significantly related with the subfactor (i. e. adaptation and anxiety) of 16PF. Conclusion The mental health of supercargoes may not be optimistic,and the personality problems may have some effects on their mental health.

Objective: To construct a phage display library of human single-chain Fv antibodies against blood group Rh(D) substance. Methods: Combining phage display library techniques, isolated total RNA from B lymphoblastoid cell lines secreting anti-Rh(D) antibodies was used for the synthesis of the first strand of cDNA, V_ H and V_ L genes were amplified by 2nd PCR and linked together by splicing overlap extension (SOE) with the use of a (Gly_ 4Ser)_ 3 linker. The resulted scFv genes were then cloned into pCANTAB5E vectors and displayed on the phage. Phage clones were selected using intact red cells as a source of antigen. After 4 rounds of "binding-elution-enrichment", each clone was assayed for specificity by Dot ELISA. Results: A phage antibody library, with the sink size being 1.2?107, was obtained. The percentage of full-length scFv gene inserted into phage DNA was 0.80. Rescued by helper phage, a phage scFv library with titer of 3?108 pfu/ml was established. Specific phages with scFv were acquired after 4 rounds of panning, one clone exhibiting specific binding to Rh+ cell was identified by Dot ELISA. Conclusion: A strategy for construction phage antibody library by means of phage display technique was practicable, which would be useful in screening engineered antibodies against human Rh (D) blood group substances.

Objective To investigate the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)in-308 loci of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)gene promoter region and chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods Genotypes of-308 loci of the TNF-αpromoter were examined by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP)in 142 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB group)and 150 healthy controls (HC group).The indexes for evalua-ting the curative effect were the ALT,AST,HBeAg,HBV-DNA and the viral load weight,HBV-LP and HBV-PreS1,mean-while,the correlations between related indexes and SNP in TNF-α308 loci were explored as well.Results There was no sta-tistical significance in frequency distribution difference of the genotypes and alleles of-308 loci between CHC and HC groups (P>0.05),the protective factors of TNF-α308 allele A may be not associated with CHB (OR=1.529,OR95%CI:0.872~2.684).There was no association between TNF-αgene promoter-308G/A polymorphism and the positive rates of AST, ALT,HBV-LP and HBV-PreS1 (P>0.05),however,TNF-α-308G/A polymorphism associates with the positive rates of HBeAg and HBV-DNA,and A-allele of 308 loci may increase the risk of HBeAg and HBV-DNA positive expression (HBeAg:OR=3.256,OR95%CI=1.105~9.594;HBV-DNA:OR=2.847,OR95%CI=1.059~7.655).Furthermore,A-allele compared with Gallele,statistically significant differences were observed in the certain HBVDNA viral load range of104~107 copies/ml (P <005).Conclusion TNFαgene promoter308G/A polymorphism would not be associated withCHB,but the TNFα308 gene G mutation of Aallele,which was associated with HBVDNA viral load,may be the susceptible factors of HBV infection.

Objective To study the impact of main source voltage fluctuation on dose rate and dose delivery accuracy of BJ-6B accelerator. Methods The accelerator was calibrated by a voltage regulator at an output voltage of 332 V. The main source voltage fluctuation was simulated by changing the output of voltage regulator within the range of 321 - 338 V. The change of dose rate was recorded. Using a water phantom, each absorption dose was measured five times and averaged along the central beam axis at the depth of 1.5 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm, respectively, with the conditions of monitor unit: 100 MU ,field: 10 cm× 10 cm and SSD = 100 cm. The impact of voltage fluctuation on dose rate and dose delivery of BJ-6B accelerator was analyzed. Results Voltage fluctuation had an significant effect on dose rate. In a certain range, dose rate and absorption dose at different depths increased as the output voltage increased. Conclusions It is essential to equip the BJ-6B accelerator with a high accurate voltage stabilizer, and the voltage stabilizer must be adjusted to its highest accuracy.
