2.Effective evaluation of brucellosis related risk behaviors of occupation groups and the effect of health education
Chinese Journal of Endemiology 2011;30(2):208-210
Objective To find out demography characteristic and risk behaviors of occupation groups and to evaluate the effect of health education. Methods A baseline survey was conducted among occupation groups in the western part of Liaoning province by stratified random cluster sampling. Health education started to intervene in occupation groups in Linghai city of Liaoning province. An investigation of brucellosis related behaviors was carried out before and after a health education among occupation groups. Other occupational groups were as the control group. The research on high-risk behaviors of occupation groups was in the following eight aspects: protection taken when contact with abortion livestock, timely slaughter and burying deeply of sick animals, not selling sick animals do not eat dead meat, nor drink raw milk, do not eat raw meat, and immunity of livestock. Results Before the intervention, a total of 916 objects, of which intervention group 499 and control group 417 were investigated. The high-risk behaviors of brucellosis were not significantly different between the two groups[70.9% (354/499), 64.3%(321/499 ), 53.8% (268/499), 92.2% (460/499), 82.2% (410/499 ), 87.5% (437/499), 93.6% (467/499), 56.2%(280/499) in intervention group, 68.8% (287/417), 59.2% (247/417 ), 54.7% (228/417), 89.2% (372/417 ), 85.6%(360/417) ,885%(369/417),94.0%(392/417),55.9%(233/417) in control group, all P > 0.05]. After the intervention,a total of 908 survey objects, of which intervention group 499 and control group 409, were investigated. The above eight aspects of high-risk behaviors in the intervention group were 85.4% (426/499),79.0% (394/499),69.9%(349/499),96.4%(481/499),943%(471/499),94.9%(474/499),94.0%(469/499), 99.4%(496/499), respectively; in the control 66.8% (273/409),57.3% (234/409),50.1% (205/409),85.3% (349/409),88.8% (363/409),89.5%(366/409) ,90.1% (369/409), and 57.2% (234/409), respectively. Between the two groups, the difference was statistically significant (x2 = 43.991,49.833,37.111,35.032,9.537,9.826,4.485,253.808, all P < 0.05 ). The above seven aspects of high-risk behaviors except do not eat raw dairy at the beginning of intervention were compared with those of after the intervention, the differences were statistically significant (x2 = 30.426,26.284,27.854,7.364,36.027,17.238,9270.286, all P < 0.05). Conclusions Health education intervention can significantly improve the behavior change rate of occupational groups at high risk of brucellosis, and the education intervention is worthwhile to communicate and promote.

Objective To investigate the effect of chronic atrial fibrillation on free calcium concentration and expression of Ca 2+ /calmodulin dependent protein kinase Ⅱ (CaMKⅡ) in human atrial myocytes. Methods The intracellular free calcium concentration in rapidly isolated atrial myocytes and the expression of CaMKⅡ in atrial tissue of rheumatic heart disease patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) or with normal sinus rhythm were measured by laser scanning confocal microscopy and Western blotting respectively. Results The intracellular Ca 2+ concentration of patients with atrial fibrillation was significantly higher than that of patients with normal sinus rhythm [(276.38?38.12) vs (122.28?45.63) nmol/L, (P
5.The role of S100A4 in cancer cells and its potential application in the search for new treatment targets
Bulletin of The Academy of Military Medical Sciences 2010;34(1):88-91
S100A4, a member of S100 superfamily of Ca~(2+)-binding proteins, is a polypeptide containing 101 amino acids. S100A4, which is overexpressed in most tumor cells, plays pivotal roles in growth, invasion and migration of tumor by regulating cell cycle progression, differentiation, apoptosis, invasion and metastasis of cells. This article reviews S100A4′s structure, function and potential application as the new target in the therapy of tumors.

? AIM: To analyze clinical characteristics and postoperative outcomes after open globe injury.?METHODS: Demographic characteristics ( age, gender, eye trauma, profession, cause of injury and injured part ) , as well as complications and prognosis were analyzed in 152 cases (152 eyes) of open globe injury.? RESULTS: Patients with open globe injury had an average age of 40. 45±38. 32 years old with a 5. 9:1 male-to-female gender ratio. The left-to-right eye ratio was 1. 27:1. Most patients were workers, farmers, or retired. The most common etiologies were scratches, boxing, and falls. Zone Ⅲ was the most commonly injured part. Iridoptosis or iris incarceration, retinal detachment, vitreal prolapse, hyphema or hypopyon, and vitreous hemorrhage were the most common complications. Visual acuity improved in 86 cases postoperatively but ophthalmectomy was still required in 25 eyes.?CONCLUSION: Vision can be improved after surgery in open globe injury. However, patients are usually seriously injured and improvement is minimal, thereby resulting in a great loss to patients and society.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of the intervertebral disc morphous in patients with thoracolumbar vertebral compression fracture. Methods The MRI, X-ray and CT data of 75 patients with thoracolumbar vertebral compression fracture were retrospectively analyzed. The intervertebral disc damage degree was observed, and its correlation with vertebral fracture degree and endplate damage degree was studied. The vertebral body leading edge height, intervertebral space height and back convex Cobb angle in patients with different intervertebral disc damage degree were measured. Results The intervertebral disc damage degree height was positively correlated with endplate damage degree (P<0.01), and the intervertebral disc damage degree was positively correlated with fracture degree (P<0.01). With the increase of the intervertebral disc damage degree in patients with Ⅰ - Ⅳtype intervertebral disc damage, the vertebral body leading edge height and intervertebral space height gradually became smaller: (0.68 ± 0.05), (0.61 ± 0.03), (0.58 ± 0.03), (0.42 ± 0.05) mm, and (0.31 ± 0.06), (0.29 ± 0.03), (0.24 ± 0.06), (0.22 ± 0.02) mm, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in back convex Cobb angle in patients with different intervertebral disc damage degree (P>0.05). Conclusions It is more important to observe the morphological changes of the intervertebral disc in patients with thoracolumbar vertebral compression fracture, and the damage degree is closely related with the vertebral fracture degree and endplate damage degree.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of endovascular coiling and microsurgical clipping for ruptured intracranial aneurysms. Methods Patients w ith ruptured intracranial aneurysm treated w ith endovascular coiling or microsurgical clipping w ere enrol ed retrospectively. The demography, baseline clinical data, outcome, and complications in patients received endovascular coiling and microsurgical clipping w ere compared. Results A total of 85 patients w ith ruptured intracranial aneurysm were enroled, including 40 were treated with microsurgical clipping (surgical clipping group) and 45 were treated w ith endovascular coiling (endovascular coiling group). There w ere no significant differences in the proportions of the patients in male (37.5%vs.40.0%; χ2 =0.056, P=0.813), hypertension (30.0%vs. 33.3%; χ2 =0.109, P=0.742 ), smoking ( 50.0%vs.48.9%; χ2 =0.010, P=0.918 ), drinking (45.0%vs.46.7%; χ2 =0.024, P=0.878), aneurysm site (anterior communicating artery: 50.0%vs. 48.9%;posterior communicating artery:35.0%vs.33.3%; middle cerebral artery:10.0 %vs.11.1%;vertebral artery: 5.0%vs.6.7%; al P>0.05), aneurysm maximum diameter < 10 mm (80.0%vs. 77.8%;χ2 =0.063, P=0.802), Hunt-Hess grade 1-2 (55.0%vs.57.8%; χ2 =0.066, P=0.797), Fisher grade 1-2 ( 60.0%vs.57.8%; χ2 =0.043, P=0.835 ), and time from onset to treatment < 72 h (62.5%vs.64.4%; χ2 =0.035, P=0.853) in the surgical clipping group and endovascular coiling group. There w ere no significant differences in the complete occlusion rate of aneurysms ( 97.5%vs.91.1%;P=0.364) and the good outcome rate (65.0%vs.68.9%; χ2 =0.145, P=0.703) betw een the surgical clipping group and the endovascular coiling group. No patients died in the surgical clipping group and 1 patient died in the endovascular coiling group, and there w as no significant difference ( P=1.000). One patient (2.5%) had cerebral infarction in the surgical clipping group and no patients had cerebral infarction in the endovascular coiling group, and there w as no significant difference ( P=0.471). Conclusions The efficacy and safety of microsurgical clipping are the same as those of endovascular coiling for ruptured intracranial aneurysms.
