Objective To construct the teaching model of medical statistics in universities of TCM through the questionnaire of knowledge,attitude and practice structure.Methods Medical statistics KAP questionnaire survey was conducted among postgraduates using proportional stratified sampling according to the grade.It describes the present situation and calculates the knowledge loss coefficient,knowledge demand index and behavioral application intensity of medical statistics.The Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences among different grades.Results 109 questionnaires were withdrawn.The recovery was 83.84％.45 cases (41.3％) were first year postgraduate,33 cases (30.3％) were 2nd year postgraduate,and 31 cases (28.4％) were 3rd year postgraduate.At the knowledge level,the knowledge loss coefficient of the second year postgraduates was 0.635,and there was no statistical difference (P=-0.651) vs the first year postgraduate (0.638).At the attitude level,Knowledge demand index had no statistical significance difference (P=0.213)between postgraduates in grade two (96.87％) and grade three (75.00％).Most medical postgraduates held positive attitudes toward medical statistics,hoping to strengthen the training of their application ability such as medical statistics in design and research thinking (29.18％),the statistical methods selection and the interpretation of the results (31.53％) and the statistical software operation (36.07％).At the practice level,the percentage of application intensity with statistical methods of third-year postgraduates (100.00％) was higher than the second-year postgraduates (37.50％),and the second-year postgraduates higher than the first-year postgraduates (20.45％).And with the growth of year,the percentage of application intensity was gradually increasing (P=O.O03).Among them,published scientific papers accounted for 16.5％,and 58.6％ paper grade concentrated in the core journals.Conclusion Application development should be enhanced by modularization teaching with practical issues.

OBJECTIVE To assess the efficancy of Yangxue Qingnao granules on simvastatin-induced vascular injury model in zebrafish. METHODS Since statins can inhibit vascular development in zebrafish,in this study,we developed a novel animal model using 1 to 3 day post-fertilization larval zebrafish by optimizing the doses and duration of simvastatin exposure.Five pro-angiogenic drugs with a variety of mechanisms were tested to validate the newly developed zebrafish model. Zebrafish was treated with different concentration of Yangxue Qingnao granules( 62.5,125 and 250 μg·mL-1)for 2 d then tested for the area of subintestinal vein vessels. RESULTS Vascular regeneration promoting effect of five pro-angiogenic drugs (calycosin, astragaloside, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid and Panax Notoginseng Saponins)were 8-48%,24-51%,35-58%,28-75% and 37-69%,respectively.In 62.5,125 and 250 μg·mL-1Yangxue Qingnao granules group,vascular regeneration promoting effect were 21% (P>0.05), 84%(P<0.01) and 53%(P<0.01). CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that the zebrafish vascular injury model validated in this study could be used for in vivo angiogenesis studies and drug screening and for assessing pro-angiogenic drugs with different mechanisms.Yangxue Qingnao granules could promote the vascular regeneration in zebrafish.

Objective To observe pathohistological features of vulnerable plaques in coronary arteries. Methods Autopsy coronary samples from 67 patients died of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and 60 patients of non-cardiac death from 1992 to 2006 in Beijing Hospital were examined. Morphological features of vulnerable plaques of ACS cases were evaluated in terms of thrombus, ratio of lipid core, the minimal thickness of fibrous cap and the density of inflammatory infiltration. Results ( 1 ) There are 305 plaques in ACS group and the incidence of big lipid core is 153 (50. 16％ ), thin fibrous cap is 187(61.31％),inflammatory infiltration is 263 (86. 23％ ), neovasculature conformation is 217 (71. 15％ ), severe stenosis is 26 ( 8. 52％ ), calcification is 238 ( 78.03％ ), superficial calcified nodule is 26 ( 8. 52％ ), fissured plaque is 12(3.93％ ), endothelial denudation is 3(0. 98％ ) and intraplaque hemorrhage is 54( 17. 70％ ),which are significantly higher than control samples except endothelial denudation ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). ( 2 ) The incidence of vulnerable plaques in ACS group is significantly higher than in the control group (89. 51％ vs.21.98％, P ＜ 0. 01 ). There are 4. 07 sections of vulnerable plaques with high density of inflammatory infiltration out of 4. 55 sections reviewed in ACS patients, while there are 0. 85 sections of vulnerable plaques with mild inflammatory infiltration out of 3. 87 sections reviewed in the control cases. Conclusions Formation of vulnerable plaque was an important pathological factor for the development of ACS. The major morphological characteristics of vulnerable plaque are big lipid core, thin fibrous cap, inflammatory infiltration, neovascularization, severe stenosis, plaque rupture, and endothelial denudation suggesting inflammation performed an important role in the formation of vulnerable plaque.

OBJECTIVETo study the significance of cytokine IL-1α and S100β expression in formation and evolution of different types of plaques in Alzheimer's disease.

METHODSThirty-four autopsy cases of Alzheimer's disease encountered during the period from 1982 to 2008 were retrieved from the archival files of Department of Pathology, Beijing Hospital. Tissue blocks were taken from hippocampus for dual immunostaining for IL-1α/Aβ and S100β/Aβ.

RESULTSImmunohistochemical studied for IL-1α/Aβ and S100β/Aβ delineated four different types of senile plaques: diffuse non-neuritic plaques, diffuse neuritic plaques, dense-core neuritic plaques and dense-core non-neuritic plaques. The numbers of IL-1α-positive microglias and S100β-positive astrocytes associated with diffuse neuritic plaques were (7.29 ± 3.04) per mm(2) and (6.49 ± 2.20) per mm(2), respectively. In contrast, the numbers of IL-1α-positive microglias and S100β-positive astrocytes associated with diffuse non-neuritic plaques, dense-core neuritic plaques and dense-core non-neuritic plaques were (3.24 ± 1.53) per mm(2) and (4.14 ± 1.77) per mm(2), (2.09 ± 1.37) per mm(2) and (2.25 ± 0.83) per mm(2), and (1.38 ± 0.90) per mm(2) and (0.58 ± 0.36) per mm(2), respectively. The numbers of IL-1α-positive microglias and S100β-positive astrocytes associated with diffuse neuritic plaques were significantly higher than those of the other three types of plaques (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe IL-1α-positive microglias and S100β-positive astrocytes may be of certain significance in transformation of diffuse non-neuritic plaques to diffuse neuritic plaques in Alzheimer's disease.

To elucidate the expression of WT1 in all types of leukemias and its implications for monitoring minimal residual disease in patients with acute leukemia, the peripheral blood from 55 leukemia patients and 10 normal voluteer was detected by using FQ-RT-PCR. Follow-up monitoring of WT1 expression of peripheral blood was performed for 20 patients with acute leukemia. The results showed that the expression of WT1 gene in all types of leukemias was significantly higher than that in normal control (P < 0.001). For ANLL and ALL patients, the survival time in the group of WT1 6.8 x 10(-3), (P = 0.027). Follow-up detection of the expression of WT1 in peripheral blood samples from 20 acute leukemia patients, 7 cases relapsed after complete remission has been done. In 5 of 7 relapsed patients, the expression of WT1 had obviously increased about 2 - 3 months before clinical relapse became apparent. It is concluded that the established FQ-RT-PCR method is accurate and specific. The expression of WT1 gene is relatively high in all types of leukemias compared with normal peripheral blood cells, the higher WT1 expression may associate with poor prognosis in acute leukemia, and the dynamics of WT1 level correlate with the disease status. The quantitative assessment of WT1 expression in peripheral blood samples by FQ-RT-PCR may be a useful tool for monitoring minimal residual disease.

Objective To described the prevalence of school physical violence behaviors and to explore its associated factors among middle school students in Beijing. Methods In 2009, a randomly selected cross- sectional survey was conducted among 5718 students in grades 7 to 12 in Beijing. A self-report anonymous questionnaire involving physical violence at school and sociodemographic variables, such as sex, grades, family economic status and family structure, peer relationships, and communication with their parents etc. were completed by students themselves.Logistic regression was used to estimate the association between physical violence and sociodemographic variables. Results Among the students, 14.3% reported that they had had physical violence behavior in school during the past 12 months. Male students had been more likely to have physical violence behaviors than female students (Male 25.2%, Female 5.1% ). For both male and female students, poor school cohesion were the risk factors of physical violence behaviors (Male OR=1.060, Female OR=1.065). For male students, factors as father' s lower education level (OR=1.653 ), remarried/single-parent families ( OR = 1.834 ), low-grade ( grade 7 OR = 5.291; grade 11 OR =1.526) , poor school performance (OR=1.470) etc were the risk factors of physical violence behaviors; while better-off family economic status (OR=0.546), good peer relationships (OR=0.618) , and easy to communicate with the father (OR=0.756) were the protective factors of physical violence behaviors. For female students, easy to communicate with her mother (OR = 0.358)were the protective factors of physical violence behaviors. Conclusion For male and female students, the prevalence of school physical violence and its related factors were different. Actions on prevention against physical violence behaviors should be fully considered, including factors as gender, personal characteristics, family, school and peers etc.
