Recently,researches about impulsiveness are more and more active,especially in the fields of psychology,psychiatry,behavioral medicine and psychopharmacology.But there is no widely accepted definition and measurement methods.This review briefly described the concept of impulsiveness and different methods to measure impulsiveness.We also discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each measurement method.

Objective Identification of colorectal cancer specific antigens from cDNA phage expression library by recombinant expression cloning (SEREX). Methods The cDNA phage expression library derived from colorectal cancer tissue was constructed using the SMART (Switching Mechanism at 5'end of RNA Transcript) techniques. The cDNA phage expression library was screened with SEREX (serological identification of antigen by recombinant cDNA expression libraries), the positive clones encoding antigenic genes were obtained after immunoscreening, and the nucleotide sequences of cDNA inserts were determined and analyzed with BLST software in GenBank, and the antigenic gene function was analyzed by bioinformatics. Results The cDNA phage expression library derived from colorectal cancer tissues was successfully constructed. The primary library consisted of 2.39?10 6 recombinants, and the recombinant rate was more than 97.5%. The titer of the amplified cDNA phage expression library was 4.1?10 10pfu/ml, and the size of inserted cDNA varied from 0.5 to 4.0kb. Sixteen positive clones encoding antigenic genes were obtained after immunoscreening, and results showed that 16 reactive clones were derived from 12 different genes. Ten of 12 genes were highly homologous to the genes known in GenBank, such as IFITM1, CD24, Survivin, KLK6, et al. Two expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were not found in GenBank. The antigenic genes included structural gene, regulation gene and metabolizing gene. Conclusion The tumor-associated antigen genes and the two ESTs were obtained by SEREX were worthy of further study on their structures and functions.

Objective To investigate the relationship between cysteine-rich protein 61 ( Cyr61 ) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase ( PI3K ) signal pathway on cell proliferation and apoptotic in human ovarian carcinoma cells.Methods Recombinant human Cyr61 (rhCyr61) was pretreated with ovarian carcinoma cells.The expression of Cyr61 protein was detected by confocal spectral microscopy.Then treated the ovarian carcinoma cells with PI3K transduction inhibitors (LY294002) for 24 hours.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry (FCM).Cell viability was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method.The mRNA expressions of Cyr61,the protein levels of protein kinase B ( PKB),phospho-PKB and Cyr61 were assaved by real time-PCR and western blot analysis,respectively.Results The Cyr61 and phospho-PKB protein expression in two ovarian carcinoma cells (OV2008 and OVCAR-3 ) were increased in rhCyr61pretreated group.The decreasing of cell apoptosis [ ( 1.4 ±0.9)％,(2.1 ± 1.0)％ ] and increasing of cell proliferation [ ( 124.0 ± 1.8)％,( 133.0 ±2.2)％ ] was detected in the same time,compared with negative control group,there were significant difference ( P ＜ 0.05 ).After exposed to LY294002 for 24 hours,the apoptosis rate of OV2008 and OVCAR-3 in pretreated with rhCyr61 group exposed to LY294002 were (21.1 ± 1.6)％ and (26.4 ± 1.5 )％,respectively.Cells viability [ (59.0 ± 2.3 )％,(51.0 ± 2.0)％ ]was also significantly decreased in OV2008 and OVCAR-3 pretreated with rhCyr61 cells.Meanwhile,the mRNA expressions of Cyr61 (3.2 ± 0.8,6.2 ± 1.1 ) and the protein levels of phospho-PKB and Cyr61 were greatly decreased.Compared with negative control group,there were significant difference in OV2008 and OVCAR-3 cells (all P ＜ 0.0l ).Conclusions The activation of PI3K intracellular signaling pathways may lead to up-regulation of Cyr61 expression.Block PI3K signal pathway could significantly inhibit the expression of Cyr61,and may promote the apoptotic effects and inhibit the cell growth of ovarian carcinoma cells.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical efficacy of cannulated screw fixation with percutaneous Poking reduction for the treatment of Sanders II, III calcaneal fracture.

METHODSFrom January 2012 to January 2014, 19 patients with Sanders II, III calcaneal fracture were treated with cannulated screw fixation with percutaneous Poking reduction. There were 14 males and 5 females, ranging in age from 19 to 58 years old, with an average age of (38.3 +/- 4.1) years old. The changes of Bohler angle and Gissane angle were measured and compared preoperatively and postoperatively to observe the recovery of the articular surface. The Maryland Foot Score was used to evaluate operation outcomes.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 28 months with a mean of (22.3 +/- 5.3) months. The Bohler angle and Gissane angle were improved significantly after operation compared with those before operation (P < 0.05). The Maryland score was 83.2 +/- 8.4.

CONCLUSIONTreatment of calcaneal fractures with screw fixation with percutaneous Poking reduction has several advantages such as satisfactory outcome,less damage, fewer complications, quicker recovery, and shorter hospital stay,and it is one of the effective treatments for Sanders II and III calcaneal fractures.

Objective To investigate the situation of subjective well-being feeling of type 2 diabetes patients and its influential factors.Methods One hundred and twenty-seven patients with type 2 diabetes were recruited as our subjects and all of them were performed the questionnaire investigation about well-being feeling.Influential factors were analyzed through several statistic methods.Results The index of subject wellbeing ranged from 3.70 to 13.70 and the average was 10.67 ± 2.10 of all type 2 diabetes patients.Of which The index of total affectation was 5.11 ± 0.92 and the range was from 2.63 to 6.63.The score of life satisfaction was 5.58 ± 1.22,and the range was from 1.10 to 7.70.Index of subjective well-being significantly associated with education,family income,therapy approach,HbA1 c level,complication,medicine burden.However there was no correlation with gender,age,diabetes duration.Conclusion The main types of subjective well-being feeling of patients with type 2 diabetes were positive effect and positive experience.Many factors could be the influence factor to well-being.Measures should be taken to improve Subjective well-being of type 2 diabetes patients.

Objective To understand the therapeutic effect of clindamycin combined with compound sulfamethoxazole tablets on pneumocystis pneumonia(PCP)associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).Methods 97 AIDS patients with PCP in a hospital from January 2014 to March 2015 were randomly divided into control group (n=49,received compound sulfamethoxazole )and trial group(n=48,received clindamycin on the basis of com-pound sulfamethoxazole ),levels of partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2 ),arterial blood oxygen satu-ration(SaO2 ),serum albumin(ALB),and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH)in two groups of patients before and after treatment were recorded.Results Levels of PaO2 ,SaO2 ,ALB,and LDH between two groups of patients before treatment was not significantly different(all P >0.05).After treatment,PaO2 in control group and trial group were (73.01 ±4.62)mmHg and(84.92 ±5.34)mmHg respectively,SaO2 were (75.81 ±4.28)% and(90.86 ±5.94)%respectively,ALB were (32.62±4.41 )g/L and(43.95 ±5.03)g/L respectively,LDH were(416.53 ±30.77)U/L and(331 .58±20.86)U/L respectively,levels of PaO2 and SaO2 in trial group were both higher than control group , difference in ALB and LDH between two groups of patients after treatment were both statistically significant(both P <0.05).The total effective rate of trial group was 89.58% (n=43),which was higher than 69.39%(n=34)in control group (χ2 =6.04,P =0.014).Conclusion Clindamycin combined with compound sulfamethoxazole tablets has good therapeutic effect on AIDS and PCP,which is worthy of clinical popularization and application.
