Objective To investigate the relationship between Alzheimer disease(AD) and plasma homocysteine (HCY) level. Methods Rate of mini mental state examination(MMSE) and levels of plasma homocysteine and folate and vitamin B12 were determined in 68 AD patients, which were compared with 60 healthy older. Results The mean plasma level of HCY was higher in AD patients than that in contrast group,and the very reverse of plasma level of folate and vitamin B12(P15?mol/L,the odd ratio(OR) was 4.3(95% CI 1.89～7.43). Plasma level of HCY was negatively correlated with that of folate and vitamin B12 and rate of MMSE in two groups. Conclusion The high level of plasma HCY is an important risky factor to AD patients. The lack of nutrition elements of folate and vitamin B12 et al can result in the rising of plasma HCY.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the relevant factors and drug sensitivity of Candida in nosocomial infection from a class A comprehensive hospital in Hangzhou in order to prevent and control nosocomial infection.METHODS We collected and identified clinic samples from inpatients during from Jan 2004 to Dec 2006 and drug resistance test was performed for Candida strains.The CHROMagar candida color medium and the Analytic Products Inc(API)20CAUX identification system were used to isolate and identify Candida strains from inpatients.The Etest was used to study the antifungal sensitivity.The data were analyzed by WHONET-5 software and were determined by the Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute(CLSI)method.RESULTS Totally 264 strains of Candida were detected in the three years.The detection ratio in each year was 78 strains(29.5%),87 strains(32.9%),and 99 strains(37.5%),respectively.The C.albicans was the most commonly isolated species(65.5%)and then was C.tropicalis(15.1%)in all Candida species.The detection ratio was the highest in sputum samples(108 strains,40.9%)and the patients with respiratory tract infection(58 strains,22%).The results of antifungal drug sensitivity test showed that Candida were the most susceptive to amphotericin B,followed by fluconazole.The results of change showed that Candida remained stable susceptive to amphotericin B,but susceptive ratio to fluconazole was descent in the three years.CONCLUSIONS Candida in nosocomial infection are an increasing tendency and C.albicans is the commonest.Sensitivity of Candida to various antifungal drugs is different and there is a developing change in susceptive ratio to antifungal drugs.Strengthening supervising relevant factors and improving the immunity of organism are the main measures to prevent Candida in nosocomial infection.Antifungal drug should be used reasonably based on drug sensitive test.

Ojective To investigate therapeutic results of conservative operation with laparoscopy for all kinds of patients with tube pregnancy. Methods 62 patients with tube pregnancy were performed the conservative surgery, fenestration on the position of tube pregnancy or take out embryos from the tube crevice combined with injection of MTX under laparoscopy. Results all of 61 patients' tube were retained successfully. no complications occurred, urine HCG recovered to normal levels two weeks after operation. Only one patient continue to pregnancy and completely recovered after intramuscular injection MTX. 18 patients were carried out HSG 1～4 months after operations. 15 patients' tube among them were unobstructed. Opening rate was 88.3%. Within postopeative four years, 12 patients were repregnant. Pregnancy rate was 66.7%. Conclusions Tube pregnancy conservative treatments under laparoscopy not only is safe and minimal invasion, but also had less complications, therefore it is a more suitable method for retaining the fertile females' tubes.

Objective To investigate the early risk factors for stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) in acute stroke patients with dysphagia.Methods The modified Mann assessment of swallowing ability (MMASA) was used to screen dysphagia in patients with acute stroke admitted to hospital within 24 hours after symptom onset.The patients with dysphagia were used as research subjects.They were divided into either a SAP group or a non-SAP group according to whether they had SAP or not within one week of symptom onset.Univariate and multivariate logistic recession analyses were used to analyze the data of demography,past history,clinical practice,and laboratory.The early risk factors for the occurrence of SAP in patients with dysphagia were identified.The independent risk factors were analyzed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves in order to assess their predictive value for SAP.Results Of the 113 patients with acute stroke,55 had dysphagia,and 30 of them (54.54％ ) had SAP.Univariate analysis showed that the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (median,[ interquartile range] 16,[ 13 - 21 ] vs.3,[ 1 - 7 ] ; P =0.000),neut rophil counts ([ 8.22 ± 3.75 ] × 109/L vs.[ 5.39 ± 2.56 ] × 109/L; t =3.198; P =0.002),proportion of hemorrhagic stroke (96.00％ vs.4.00％ ;x2 =7.333; P =0.007),and proportion of mechanical ventilation (20.00％ vs. 0.00％;x2=5.612; P=0.018) in the SAP group (n=30) were significantly higher than those in the non-SAP group (n =25),while the MMASA score (median,[ interquartile range ] 53,[ 27 - 84 ] vs.88,[ 66 - 92 ] ; P =0.002),Glasgow Coma sCale (GCS) score (median,[ interquartile range] 10,[7-13] vs.15,[11-15];P=0.001),lymphocytecounts([1.17±0.54] ×109/L vs.[1.75±0.81 ] × 109/L; t =-3.563,P =0.001),CD3+ T lymphocyte counts ([0.73 ± 0.42] × 109/L vs.[ 1.14 ±0.85] × 109/L; t=-2.307; P=0.025),and CD4+ T lymphocyte counts ([0.38± 0.22] × 109/L vs.[ 0.69 ±0.57] × 109/L; t =-2.761; P =0.008) were significantly lower than those in the non-SAP group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the NIHSS score was higher at admission (odds ratio [ OR ],1.206,95％ confidence interval [ CI ] 1.076- 1.351; P=0.001) and the CD4+ T lymphocyte counts decreased ( OR,0.974,95％ CI 0.952 - 0.997; P =0.025) were the independent risk factors for SAP in stroke patients with dysphagia.The NIHSS score ≥ 10.5 had good predictive value for SAP,and its sensitivity and specificity were 86.7％ and 72.0％ respectively (P =0.000).Conclusions More than half of the acute stroke patients with dysphagia occurred SAP.The NIHSS score at admission,neutrophil counts,stroke types,mechanical ventilation,MMASA score,GCS score,lymphocyte counts,CD3+ T lymphocyte counts,CD4+ Tlymphocyte counts,and other factors were associated with occurrenee of SAP in patients with dysphagia,in which a higher NIHSS score and a decreased CD4+ T lymphocyte counts were independent risk factors for the occurrence of SAP in stroke patients with dysphagia.The NIHSS score ≥ 10.5 at admission had higher predictive value.

Objective To study the inhibitory effect of recombinant adenoviruses carrying the mouse endostatin gene on the therapy of endometriosis in nude mice.Methods Animal endometriosis models were established by inoculating human endometrial fragments.Mice were randomly divided into three groups(10 each):PBS control group,Ad-lacZ group and Ad-mEndo therapy group when ectopic lesion diameter reached 5-10mm.The ectopic lesion size was measured every day.The expression of endostatin in ectopic lesion was detected by immunohistochemical stainining.The microvessel density(MVD) of ectopic lesion was traced by CD34 immunohistological labeling.Meanwhile,the contents of steroid hormone and histological changes in mice uterus and ovary were detected.Results The titer of the recombinant adenovirus was about 5.0?109pfu/ml.The endostatin gene was transferred into mice successfully and expressed effectively.The lesion volume was significantly less in Ad-mEndo group(34.3?11.2mm3) than that in Ad-lacZ group(93.3?10.7mm3) and PBS group(90.4?18.7mm3,P

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.

Sunscreen products have been widely used with the increase in public awareness of sun protection. As sunscreens are structurally stable and resistant to degradation, the concern for their biotoxicity and impact on marine environment has been heightened increasingly, and several countries and regions have successively issued bans on relevant sunscreen products. However, these bans have not yet affected the key international rules and regulations related to sunscreen products. The risks of different sunscreens to marine ecosystems and potential risks to human themselves still need to be evaluated through further multidisciplinary researches.

From DDDs’top 10 Chinese medicines during 2010-2012, medicine for cardiovascular medications and urinary system had a great percentage, and the doctors used Chinese medicines reasonably. Conclusion The Chinese medicines uses in outpatients of our hospital is generally rational.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that nerve grafts with Schwann cels can repair peripheral nerve defect and Schwann cels have an important role in nerve regeneration. OBJECTIVE: To observe the rehabilitation status of neutral function after sciatic nerve injury in rats bridged by nerve grafts with Schwann cels. METHODS: A rat model of sciatic nerve injury was established, and schwann cels were primarily cultured. Then, the rat model was repaired with polylactic-co-glycolic acid copolymer-extracelular matrix gel-Schwann cels complex. According to different concentrations of Schwann cels, there were five cel groups from 105/L to 109 RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The nerve conduction velocities in the cel groups were al higher than that in the control group at 3, 6, 12 weeks after modeling (P < 0.01), and it was highest in the 10 and a control group. The nerve conduction velocity was detected respectively at 3, 6, 12 weeks after modeling; the e tibialis anterior muscle gravity was detected and histological observation was done at 12 weeks. 8/L (P < 0.05). At 12 weeks, hematoxylin-eosin staining of the tibialis anterior muscle showed that the number of normal muscle fibers was higher in the cel groups than the control group (P < 0.05). In the 108/L and 109 and had similar length, thickness and density. These findings indicate that polylactic-co-glycolic acid complex with 10/L groups, the morphology of tibialis anterior muscle recovered wel; the muscle fibers were in strip-like and wavy shapes, grew in the same direction, 8/L Schwann cels is better to promote sciatic nerve regeneration.

Objective To study the association between three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP; rs2241766,rs1501299 and rs12495941) variants of the adiponectin gene (ADIPOQ) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in PCOS family trios.Methods A total of 224 unrelated PCOS probands,their biological parents were recruited.Anthropometric variables such as waist circumference (WC),hip circumference (HC),height and weight were measured in all subjects during the first visit to the outpatient department.Body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) were calculated.Serum fasting glucose (FBG),fasting insulin (FINS),total cholesterol (TC),triglycerides (TG),low-density lipoprotein and highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) levels were measured.PCOS patients were divided into two groups based on BMh group A (BMI＜25 kg/m2) and group B (BMI≥25 kg/m2).Parents of PCOS patients were accordingly categorized into group C,D (fathers) and group E,F (mothers).The transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) was used to analyze the association between three SNP of ADIPOQ and PCOS.Results (1) A significant positive association was detected between SNP rs1501299 and PCOS (x2=7.093,P=0.008).However we failed to find significant overtransmission of the other two SNP rs2241766 and rs12495941 from parents to PCOS offsprings (x2=1.620,P=0.203; x2=0.713,P=0.398).(2) Linkage disequilibrium (LD) was analyzed in the subjects,rs1501299 and rs2241766 were in weak LD (r2=0.063,D'=0.621).(3) The levels of WC,HC,WHR,testosterone,TG,HDL and FINS were significantly differences between obese and lean PCOS patients (P＜0.05).While in fathers we only found WC,HC,TC levels being statistically different (P＜ 0.05).Mothers of obese PCOS patients had increased levels of FINS compared with mothers of lean PCOS patients (P＜0.05).The genotype frequencies of the three SNP were not different in obese and lean PCOS patients and their parents (P＞0.05).Conclusions TDT confirms that SNP rs1501299 in the ADIPOQ is significantly associated with the risk of PCOS in the Chinese Han population.The three SNP of the ADIPOQ were not associated with the obesity of PCOS.
