Objective To evaluate the ability of restriction endonuclease analysis by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE REA) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis for molecular typing of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates. Methods Genomic DNA from 36 Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates were digested with SpeI and analysed by contour clamped homogeneous electric fields electrophoresis. The 36 isolates were also characterised by RAPD analysis with arbitrary primer OPA 03. Results 12～19 DNA fragments from 5 to 600kb were obtained among the 36 isolates after PFGE REA. The 36 isolates were discriminated into 20 PFGE patterns. Amplification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA with primer OPA 03 produced 15 different DNA fragments (280～1900bp), and 3～9 fragments per strain could be seen. The 36 isolates showed 18 different RAPD patterns. Strains sharing common auxotypes and antibiotic spectrum could be differentiated by PFGE REA and RAPD analysis. General agreement was found between these two techniques. Isolates from different geographic areas and even some isolates in the same area showed considerable amount of DNA polymorphism. In addition, some isolates shared common or very similar patterns were unique to a given geographic area. Conclusion It is concluded that both PFGE REA and RAPD analysis are useful, sensitive molecular techniques for differentiation of clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. They should be helpful in the investigation of strain origin, clonal relation among strains and spread of antibiotic resistance. Compared with PFGE REA, RAPD analysis is faster, relatively simple and more economical.

Objective To study the effect of Qi-Gong relaxation training on the operation-related psychological stress and the post-operative psychosomatic adjustment in upper-abdominal surgery patients. Methods Forty-two patients undergoing upper-abdominal surgery in intervention group were instructed to do Qi-Gong relaxation training, and forty patients matched were controls without Qi-Gong relaxation training. On the day before surgery, a self-developed patients' pre-operative appraisal questionnaire, a self-developed patients' pre-operative behavior rating questionnaire for completion by medical workers, and State Anxiety Inventory (SAI) of State -Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were used in two groups. In an hour before operation，the shift of the mean value of pulse and systolic pressure of every case compared with the base line measured at his (or her) admission was also recorded. After surgery, patients were assessed with a self-developed patients' post-operative appraisal questionnaire, a self-developed patients' post-operative behavior rating questionnaire for completion by medical workers and SAI of STAI. Besides, the indexes of physical rehabilitation, including intestinal aerofluxus, total dosage of analgesia and so on, were recorded. Data were analysed in t-test with SPSS. Results Compared with controls, the patients in intervention group had more positive anticipation about the following operation, lower pre- and post-operative anxiety, and lighter post-operative pain experience. There was no difference in the indexes of physical rehabilitation between two groups. Conclusions Qi-Gong relaxation training could lead patients to better psychological adjustment both before and after operation. This finding suggests that Qi-Gong relaxation training could be used as an effective psycho-behavior intervention in abdominal surgery patients.

BACKGROUND: Up to date, studies concerning capspase 3 inhibitor mainly focus on peptide/non-peptide compounds synthesis and detection. Few reports addressing inhibits chondrocytes apoptosis using silenced caspase 3 gene. OBJECTIVE: To inhibit apoptosis of chondrocytes by blocking the apoptotic cascade reaction, gene silencing of caspase 3, and transduction of caspase 3 siRNA into chondrocytes with lentivirus vector.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A single sample observation was performed at the Institute of Traumatic Surgery, Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital, Medical College of Jinan University from June 2008 to June 2009.MATERIALS: Chondrocytes were harvested from SD rats, and caspase 3 shRNA plasimid was constructed by our laboratory.METHODS: Rattus caspase 3 siRNA was synthesized and cloned into pSIH1-H1-copGFP plasmid. pSIH1-H1-copGFP-caspase 3 siRNA lentivirus was generated in 293TN cells by pPACKH1~(TM) Lentivector Packaging Kit and transducted into chondrocytes of rats.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: After the lentivirus was transducted into chondrocytes, the caspase 3 mRNA was tested by RT-PCR and the caspase 3 protein was tested by Western blot. Both the transducted cells and untransducted cells were induced apoptosis by tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry, Annevin V/PI.RESULTS: The transduction rate of caspase 3 siRNA was about 90% by lentivirus vector. The expression of caspase 3 mRNA and caspase 3 protein in transducted chondrocytes was lower than the normal chondrocytes (P < 0.01). When the cells induced apoptosis by TNF-α, the apoptosis rate of the negative siRNA- chondrocytes was 7 times higher than that of caspase 3 siRNA-chondrocytes.CONCLUSION: The caspase 3 siRNA could inhibit caspase 3 expression and decrease drug-induced apoptosis of the chondrocytes.
