Objective: To understand the effects of remuneration incentive and their influences on job satis-faction in county public hospital. Methods: Stratified random sampling was adopted. Six county public hospitals in county level in Heilongjiang province were selected as the sample. Exploratory factor analysis was used to ana-lyze the remuneration incentives, descriptive statistical analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to ana-lyze the effects and their influences on work satisfaction. Results: remuneration incentives are divided into four dimensions that comprised a total of 16 items, which including direct material rewards, indirect material re-wards, occupational rewards and social rewards. The surgeon’s job satisfaction is higher than the physician, and is lower than the obstetrics and gynecology and pediatrics. Technician and nurses’ satisfaction is lower than the general practitioner. The medical staff who worked less than5 years has the lowest satisfaction. Authorized staff’s satisfaction is lower than off-staff. Direct material rewards and occupational rewards are related to job satisfac-tion. Conclusions:Material rewards were in low level, and non-economic incentive was insufficient. The salary incentive for highly educated talents should be strengthened.

Objective To examine supine fulcrum pressurized radiograph to predict spinal flexibility in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Methods 1. Empirical study: put two points (A and B) on one side of the plastic stick and one point on the other side ( C), pressurize on the plastic stick when point C is in the middle of A and B, and then measure the projection shifting of point A. Repeat the pressure test when the distance between A and C doubled. Analyze the effect of increasing distance on diminishing pressure. 2.Clinical study :45 patients ( 16 males and 29 females) underwent standing anteroposterior radiograph ,fulcrum lateral flexion radiograph, supine lateral flexion radiograph. The Cobb's angles were measured and the flexibility ratio was determined on preoperative fulcrum radiograph. Results (1) If the length of A and C was 25 cm, pressurize on point C, when pressure quantitative scale number located 1 scale and 2 scale of the rule, projection shifting of point A were 5 cm and 10 cm. If the length of A and C was 50 cm, pressurize on point C, when pressure quantitative scale number located 1 scale and 2 scale of the rule, projection shifting of point A were 8 cm and 15 cm. The longer the distance, the lesser the pressure force of plastics stick. (2)The Cobb angles and curve flexibility provided by fulcrum lateral flexion radiograph had significant difference from that provided by supine lateral flexion radiograph in male group and female group. Cobb angles of male group was 28. 6°± 4. 1 °, 16. 7°± 4. 6° respectively (t= 7. 438, P < 0. 01 )and curve flexibility was 47. 6% ±8. 1% ,69. 4% ± 8. 5% respectively( t = 7. 438, P < 0. 01 ). Cobb angles of female group was 24.5°± 2. 7°,12. 6°±2. 4° respectively(t = 17. 540,P <0. 01 )and curve flexibility was 53.4% ±5.2% ,76. 0% ±4. 7% respectively(t = 17. 54, P < 0. 01 ). The flexibility of spinal main curve of female patients was obviously higher than male patients. Conclusions Supine fulcrum pressurized technique can make up for the insufficiency of supine lateral flexion technique, and provide a convenient, safe, precise and useful method for evaluation of spinal flexibility in AIS.

BACKGROUNDTo determine the relationship between human papillomavirus infection, cervical carcinoma, pre-cancerous lesion and condyloma acuminatum.
METHODSFrom January 2004 to August 2005, 1086 inpatients in department of dermatology and department of gynaecology and obstetrics in Southwest Hospital and No. 302 Hospital with cervical lesions and condyloma were reviewed. All specimens were detected for HPV-DNA using techniques of Gene Array and fluorogenic quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR). All detections of HPV-DNA were performed in the first admission before the patients underwent any examination or treatment.
RESULTSThe positive rates of HPV-DNA detection were 100% in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I, and II and cervical carcinoma. Among these, the main subtype was HPV 16. But some of the patients were found to be positive for more than 2 subtypes of HPV. While the commonest HPV subtype was HPV 18 in endometrial cancer. Some of the patients were detected to be positive for more than 2 subtypes of HPV. In 636 female patient with condyloma acuminatum, the infection rates of HPV6, HPV11 accounted for 44.97% and 29.40%, respectively, HPV 16 and/or HPV 18 infection constituted a small percentage. In a few cases, infection with more than 2 subtypes was detected.
CONCLUSIONCervical carcinoma including pre-cancerous lesion differs from condyloma acuminatum in dominate infectious subtype of HPV. The former is mainly associated with HPV 16 and HPV 18 infections, and the latter mainly associated with HPV 6 and HPV 11 infections. But in both of the above lesions, a mixed infection with more than 2 types may occur and make the pathological changes and clinical treatment more complicated. The early diagnosis and supervision of HPV infection may be of great value for improvement of prognosis and quality of life.

OBJECTIVETo explore the relationship between latex allergen and clinical presentation as well as allergenic cross-reactivity between latex and other allergens, to know the incidence of latex allergy in Chinese children and elucidate the allergenic cross-reactivity of latex with other allergens.
METHODSTotally 265 children with allergic disorders were assayed with 13 international standard allergen agents by means of SPT.
RESULTSIn 79 children with latex allergenic SPT position, 53 were boys and 26 were girls with an average age of 5.6 years, and 14 cases had episodes occurred in winter, 14 cases in spring, 24 cases in summer, and 27 cases in autumn. Of them, 66 cases presented as asthma, 5 cases atopic skin disorders, 1 case anaphylactoid purpura, 1 case hives and 6 cases only had mild cough. Statistical analysis showed that the positive percentage of the latex SPT had no obvious relation with sex and age, but was higher in summers and autumns than in winters and springs (P < 0.01). Children with allergic symptoms had higher positive rate in latex allergenic SPT than those without them, that is, the positive percentage of the latex SPT significantly increased among children presenting with some allergic symptoms, such as asthma, hives and atopic skin disorders (P < 0.01). All the children with latex allergenic SPT position had cross-reactivity with acarid allergen, 62.0% approximately 43.0% with animal protein allergens including milk, cats, shrimp, dogs, eggs in the order of decreasing cross-reaction rate, and 10.1% - 3.8% with mold and plant farina allergens. But the cross-reactivity between latex and mold or tree farina I were not statistically significant.
CONCLUSIONThirty percent of the children with allergic disorders were latex allergenic SPT positive. Latex allergenic SPT positive results were significantly correlative to allergic clinical presentation and season, while were not relative to sex and age. The cross-reactivity of latex with acarid was most common, followed by animal protein allergens, while the cross-reactivity with mold and plant farina allergen was rare.

Ligustrazine, one of the major effective components of the Chinese traditional medicinal herb Ligusticum Chuanxiong Hort, has been reported plenty of biological activities, such as protect cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, neuroprotection and anti-tumor, et al. Because of its remarkable effects, studies on structural modification of ligustrazine have attracted much attention. Ligustrazine synthetic derivatives reported in recent decades are mainly derived from four primary intermediates (TMP-COOH, TMP-OH, TMP-NH2, HO-TMP-OH). To explore the neuroprotection activitiy of ligustrazine intermediates, six ligustrazine intermediates (2, 5, 8, 11, 12, 13) were synthesized and their protective effects against CoCl2-induced neurotoxicity in differentiated PC12 cells were studied. The target compounds were prepared via different chemical methods, including oxidation, substitution, esterification and amidation without changing the structure nucleus of ligustrazine. Compared with TMP (EC50 = 56.03 micromol x L(-1)), four compounds (2, 5, 12 and 13) exhibited higher activity (EC50 < 50 micromol x L(-1)) respectively, of which, compound 2 displayed the highest protective effect against the damaged PC12 cells (EC50 = 32.86 micromol x L(-1)), but target compounds 8 and 11 appeared lower activity (EC50 > 70 micromol x L(-1)). By structure-activity relationships analysis, the introduction of carboxyl, amino to the side chain of ligustrazine and appropriately increase the proportion of ligustrazine may contribute to enhance its neuroprotective activity, which provides a reference for the design, synthesis and activity screening of relevant series of ligustrazine derivatives in the future.

OBJECTIVEThe expression of CD25, CD45RA, CD45RO on umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMCs) and CD3(+) T lymphocytes was investigated to explore the mechanism of immunosuppressive effects of intravenous immunoglobulin on neonatal immune function.
METHODSUmbilical cord blood mononuclear cells and CD3(+) T lymphocytes isolated from 8 neonates were studied. The expression of CD25, CD45RA, CD45RO on umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMCs) and CD3(+) T lymphocytes induced with various stimuli of different combinations of IVIG and phytohemagglutinin (PHA) including (1) control group, (2) PHA activation group, (3) IVIG pre-inhibition group, (4) PHA pre-activation group, (5) PHA+IVIG group was measured with four-color immunofluorescence antibodies staining-flow cytometric technique. The results were also compared with peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 8 adults (PBMCs).
RESULTSIVIG inhibited the PHA-induced proliferation of CBMCs as reflected by the decreased expression of CD25 and CD45RO. The amounts of CD25(+) and CD4(+)CD45RO(+) CBMCs reached 77.52% +/- 2.31% and 64.29% +/- 3.09% after PHA use. But a decreased response in CD25(+) (7.66% +/- 1.20% and 7.78% +/- 1.46%) and CD4(+)CD45RO(+) CBMC (3.18% +/- 1.90% and 3.11% +/- 0.08%) was observed when IVIG was added in both IVIG pre-inhibition group and PHA+IVIG group. As compared with PBMCs, IVIG failed to induce the increase of the expression of CD45RA in CBMCs whereas CD45RA(+) PBMCs increased from 54.93% +/- 3.63% to 72.77% +/- 0.39% in IVIG pre-inhibition group. Moreover, IVIG inhibited the expression of CD25 and CD45RO on cord blood CD3(+) T lymphocytes no matter whether they were activated with PHA or not. The amounts of CD25(+) and CD4(+)CD45RO(+) CD3(+) T lymphocytes reached 97.92% +/- 2.19% and 80.41% +/- 5.57% after PHA use. But a decreased response in CD25(+) CBMCs (77.29% +/- 0.63%, 51.48% +/- 1.85% and 62.73% +/- 1.24%) and CD4(+)CD45RO(+) CD3(+) T lymphocytes (35.47% +/- 2.55%, 40.14% +/- 1.16% and 36.41% +/- 2.96%) was observed when IVIG was added in IVIG pre-inhibition group, PHA pre-activation group and PHA+IVIG group, and the degree of inhibition of IVIG on cord blood CD3(+) T lymphocytes was much lower than that of CBMCs.
CONCLUSIONSCord blood T lymphocytes activation was inhibited by IVIG through the inhibition of CD25(+) CBMCs expression and the prevention of transformation from CD4(+)CD45RA(+) cells into CD4(+)CD45RO(+) cells. This IVIG-mediated suppression of activation in cord blood T cells may be derived from the indirect effect of other immune cells or molecules other than the direct effects on T cells. IVIG failed to induce the increase of expression of CD45RA in CBMCs, which may be related to the fact that majority of CBMCs were CD45RA(+) cells, but this may not rule out that the immunosuppressive effect of IVIG could be accomplished by the increase of CD45RA(+) cells in adult peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The suppressive effect of IVIG on CD4(+)CD45RO(+) T lymphocytes may account for its inhibitory effect on immunoglobulin production of neonates' B cells. Considering that naïve CD45RA(+) cells dominate in neonates and IVIG can inhibit transformation from CD4(+)CD45RA(+) cells into CD4(+)CD45RO(+) cells, it is recommended that IVIG should be used properly in neonates, otherwise it may deteriorate their poor immune function especially when it is used for prophylaxis or as a treatment of neonatal non-infectious diseases, and its immunosuppressive action will increase the susceptibility of neonates to infection.
