Seventy-two strains of endophytic fungi were isolated from the healthy bark, branches and leaves of Cephalotaxus hainanensis L.. Sixty-eight of them were morphologically classified into Fungi Imperfecti, thirty-three sporulated were identified to five genera. For those did not sporulate, one was identified to Rhizoctonia sp., the rest were tentatively classified into Mycelia Sterilia. Four were identified to Basidiomycetes. The result indicated the endophytic fungi of C. hainanensis show a degree of tissue specificity. There were significant differences about the quantity, genera and composition between the fungi isolated from bark and those from branches and leaves.

OBJECTIVETo examine the reliability and validity of the 66-item version on the gross motor function measure (GMFM-66) to assess the gross motor functions of children below 3 years oldwith cerebral palsy.
METHODS298 valid samples were obtained from 171 children with cerebral palsy (male 126, female 45 with mean age 19 months, age range 3-36 months) measured with GMFM-88. Then a 73-item version of GMFM (GMFM-73) special for these children was obtained by Rasch analysis. Both GMFM-66 and GMFM-73 scores of to each sample were obtained. The reliability and validity of GMFM-66 were evaluated through analyzing the correlation between the scores and between the changed scores of these two GMFM versions. The relative precision of GMFM-73 versus GMFM-66 was also analyzed.
RESULTSSignificant correlations were found between the scores and between the changed scores of these two versions of GMFM. A 14% less gain in relative precision was achieved when using GMFM-73 versus GMFM-66.
CONCLUSIONResults indicated that the GMFM-66 had good reliability and validity in assessing the gross motor functions of children below 3 years old with cerebral palsy.

OBJECTIVETo study the risk sexual behaviors related to AIDS between heterosexual and homosexual men who have had sex with men.
METHODSTarget sampling, anonymous questionnaires were adopted to compare sexual behaviors between the two groups.
RESULTSThe total amount of sex partners with same-sex was 13.8 on average among heterosexual men including 3.8 with male partners in the past 6 months. Numbers of male partners who had oral sex with was 10.5 and anal sex was 12.4 which were both less than with same sex. Among heterosexual men, the total number of female partners was 4.9 on average but number of female partners in the past 6 months was 1.7 which were both more than that among the homosexuals who were all in marriage status. The rate of condom use was 68.8% (lower than that among homosexual men), among heterosexual men when having sex with men. The rate of condom use among heterosexual men during last anal intercourse was 91.3% with male partners or 63.7% with females. Both figures were higher than that among the homosexuals. The rates of condom use among the two groups were 91.3% and 71.0% respectively during the last anal intercourse with men which were higher than the corresponding rate of condom use during the last oral sex. The rate of heterosexual men who ever had engaged in group sex was 9.9% in the previous year and the incidence of bleeding was 16.7% during sexual intercourse. 11.4% of them reported ever having had sex with partners from other areas in the last year and 4.2% had experienced same-sex harassment before 16 years of age. 4.6% had paid for male-male sex. All these figures were lower than that of the homosexuals.
CONCLUSIONThe characteristics of high risk sexual behaviors related to AIDS showed much difference in the two groups which called for attention among these groups of MSM.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of cap-assisted endoscopic nylon loop ligation (C-ENLL) as a new and simple method on gastric fundus submucosal tumors. Methods 74 cases with small gastric fundus submucosal tumors ≤2.00 cm in diameter were reviewed between January 2015 and June 2016. All cases were treated by C-ENLL. The clinical efficacy was analyzed. Results All the 74 patients underwent endoscopic ultrasonography before operation, 70 cases originated from the muscularis propria, 3 cases originated from the muscularis mucosae, 1 case originated from the submucosa. The average diameter of the lesions ranged 0.50 ~ 1.80 cm. C-ENLL achieved an en bloc resection rate of 100.0%, with a mean total procedure time of 26 min. Two patients developed delayed perforation, were treated with nylon rope and metal clip purse suture wound. All of whom were managed successfully. There was no delayed bleeding after operation. Pathological examination showed that 66.2% (49/74) of the tumors were gastrointestinal stromal tumors. No tumor recurrence was observed during the follow-up. Conclusion The C-ENLL may be a feasible and safe method for the treatment of small gastric fundus submucosal tumors.

Objective To explore the application of parents' presence induction program (PPIP) during anesthesia induction in children in the operation room and the nursing. Methods 86 children patients (1~11 years old) who would accept the operation were randomly divided into the observation and the control group (n=43 in each group). The observation group was accompanied by their parents when the children accepted the anesthesia induction under the instruction of nurses. But the patients were not present in the control group, and the patients were leaded into the operation room directly by the nurses to accept the anesthesia induction. Blood pressure and pulse changes before and after the anesthesia induction of these children patients were observed. The feeling of their heads of family before the operation and the satisfaction about PPIP were investigated. Results Blood pressure and pulses in the control group were significantly higher than those in the observation group before they were leaded into the operation room (P<0.01). 95% of heads of family hoped to accompany their children when they accepted the anesthesia induction, and 93.7% of heads of family wanted to take part in the PPIP. The satisfaction rate about PPIP was 95% after the completion of PPIP. Conclusions There are many profits about PPIP, such as mitigating the fear and anxiety of children and relaxing the unstable feeling of their heads of families before the anesthesia, and reducing the quantity of pre-anesthetic medications. These are helpful to the anesthesia induction and the cooperation of doctor patients. It is a best anesthesia induction mode worthy to be extended in the operation room.

OBJECTIVETo study the HIV related high-risk behaviors and associated factors on the spread of HIV among men having sex with men(MSM) who lived in mainland China and to provide evidence for developing related policies and intervention measures.
METHODSQuestionnaires were distributed at gay bars and volunteer activity venues in six big cities of China. Data on 1389 valid cases was collected and urine HIV screening test was provided. Data was analyzed with SPSS 11.0.
RESULTSThe respondents were 27.62 year olds on average with an average age for first intercourse at 19.18. The most commonly available way of finding a sex partner was through internet(43.07%), followed by gay bar and public bathrooms(35.29 % ). 6 months prior to the study, the average number of their male sex partners was 5.69 including 4.37 unfamiliar sex partners and the average number of anal-intercourse was 4.33 with 11.61 per cent of them had experienced group sex. 13 cases of them showed positive results for preliminary urine HIV screening test. In the prior 6 months, 32.46 per cent of those who had experienced intercourse using condom every time while 76.37 per cent of them during the last sex episode. In the previous 6 months, 47.18 per cent of those who had experienced intercourse with women never used condoms.
CONCLUSIONHIV high-risk behaviors are ubiquitous among MSM and AIDS intervention measures should be significantly strengthened in reaching MSM via a wide variety of conduits, especially internet. Meanwhile, a gay-friendly environment for prevention and control of AIDS is vital.
