Objective To explore the relationship between psychological problems in middle school students and parental rearing behaviors.Methods It was a cross-sectional study.By means of cluster sampling,2700 students selected from 7 middle schools in Nanning were investigated with Symptom Check List-90(SCL-90),the Egna Minnen Barndoms Uppfostran(EMBU) scale and the General Information Questionnair.Results The prevalence of psychological problems was 14.5%.Correlation analysis showed that the total score and factor-scores of SCL-90 had positive correlation with parental punishment,rejection,preference and overprotection.The total score and factor-scores of SCL-90 was negatively related to parental emotional concern.Conclusions Psychological problems in middle school students are closely related to parental rearing behaviors,and incorrect parental rearing behavior is one risk factor of psychological problems in the middle school students.

The traditional view of bacterial life cycle consists of four phases,namely,lag phase,exponential or logarithmic phase,stationary phase and death phase.Although the standard textbook description of the bacterial life cycle has been useful,might not always provide us the whole visage of bacteria growth process.Recently,it has demonstrated that bacterial life cycle is expanded to five phases.It is a significant different growth phase after death phase:long-term stationary phase,which may be more akin to the nature environment in which microorganisms exist.Microbial cells survive due to mutating,and forming growth advantage during stationary phase (GASP) phenotype in this phase.It is very important for further study the microorganisms in this phase.

[Objective] To investigate the anti-proliferative and apoptosis effect induced by Honokiol (HNK) on human myeloid leukemia cell line U937 cells in vitro.[Methods] After treated with different concentration of HNK,Hoechst33342 fluorescent staining was used to detect cell apoptosis;the growth inhibition ration of U937 cells and PBMCs were analyzed by MTT assay;the apoptosis ration was detected by flow cytometry;mitochondrial membrane potential was explored by rhodamine 123 stain;Caspase3/7 protein activity kit was used to test the Caspase3/7 activity;the Caspase-3 and Caspase-7 mRNA levels were detected by real-time fluorescent relative-quantification reverse transcriptional PCR (FQ-PCR).[Results] Honokiol could significantly inhibit the proliferation of U937 cells in terms of the indexes of IC50/U937 11.8 μg/mL and IC50/PBMCs 40.3 μg/mL,and the anti-proliferative effect was in a time and concentration dependent manner;Flow cytometry analysis manifested that Honokiol could induce U937cells apoptosis by Annexin V/PI double Annexin V/PI fluorescein stain;Honokiol significantly inhibited the mitochondrial membrane potential of U937 cells and enhanced the ability of Caspase3/7 and the mRNA expression levels,but not the PBMCs.[Conclusion] HNK can inhibit U937 cells proliferation and induce cells apoptosis via activating Caspase 3/7.

Objective To explore antiviral efficacy, safety and blocking of mother-to-infant transmission by administrating telbivudine in pregnant patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) throughout pregnancy. Methods Sixty-four cases of female patients were enrolled. The study participants were divided into the telbivudine treatment group (n = 31) and the control group (n = 33). Data were recorded from beginning of administration to ending pregnancy, as well as notation of any adverse reactions. The neonates and infants were evaluated in HBV infection, parameters of growth and development. Results The recovery rates of ALT, respectively, were 90.32% vs. 57.58% (P = 0.003), 93.55% vs. 62.50% (P = 0.003) at 24 weeks and ante partum and the HBVDNA-negative conversion rates, respectively, were 48.39% vs. 3.03% (P = 0.000), 83.87%vs. 6.06% (P = 0.000), 90.32% vs. 6.25% (P = 0.000) respectively, at 12, 24 weeks of pregnancy and at ante partum between the treatment and control groups. The HBsAg-positive and HBVDNA-positive rates of the infants, respectively, were 12.90% vs. 37.50% (P = 0.025) and 0 vs. 21.88% (P = 0.018) at birth, and respectively, were all 0 vs. 18.75% (P = 0.035) and 0 vs. 18.75% (P = 0.035) at 1, 6, 12 months old between the treatment and control groups. The treatment group showed lower incidence of intrauterine HBV infection (0 vs. 18.75%, P = 0.035). The gestational ages, fetal weights and Apgar scores were not significant different in the children born in the mothers from the two groups. Conclusions Telbivudine administration showed a good antiviral curative effect and effectively blocked mother-to-infant transmission in women with CHB. The treatment was safe and caused no obvious adverse reaction.

Objective To investigate the effect of LI-cadherin- SiRNA protein on the growth and metastatic potentials of transplanted human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (Hep3B) in nude mice.Methods We transfected LI-cadherin- SiRNA to Hep3B cells,Hep3B cell suspension (transfected or control ) was injected subcapsullaryly into the spleen of nude mice,hepatic metastasis was observed by naked eye and immunohistochemistry.In addition,Western-blot was used to detect the level of LI-cadherin in different metastatic site.Results (1) Hep3B was green after successful transfect interference vector under fluorescence inverted microscope,in this study,the transfect rate was 80％.(2) Hep3B liver metastasis model in nude mice was established.The metastasis rates in the empty plasmid carrying group,the control group and the SiRNA transfect group were 50％,60％ and 80％,respectively.The number of metastasis caner nodules in the SiRNA transfect group was 26,significantly higher than other two groups.(3) The level of protein expression for LI-cadherin in the SiRNA transfect group is significantly lower than the control group and the empty plasmid carrying group.Conclusions LI-cadherin is crucial and important for the adhension capability of HCC in its migration.SiRNA transfected LI-cadherin increases the metastasis in a nude mouse model inoculated with human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines.

AlM: To investigate the effect of endocapsular phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens (lOL) implantation with a 1. 8mm or 3. 0mm clear corneal incision on total root mean square ( RMS ) value of the cornea, corneal astigmatism, spherical aberration, coma, trefoil and tear film.
METHODS:ln a prospective study, 156 age- related patients ( 196 eyes ) were randomly distributed into two groups. 1. 8mm-group comprised 94 eyes that had a silicone lOL inserted through a 1. 8mm sutureless clear corneal incision, while, 3. 0mm- group comprised 102 eyes through a 3. 0mm clear corneal incision. Postoperatively, the changes in the total RMS value of the cornea, corneal astigmatism, spherical aberration, coma, trefoil and tear film at 1wk, 1 and 3mo were determined respectively.
RESULTS:ln both groups, postoperatively at 1wk,there were statistically significant differences ( P<0. 05 ) in the total RMS value of the cornea, corneal astigmatism, spherical aberration, coma, trefoil and tear film, while, there were statistically minimal differences ( P< 0. 05 ) between 1. 8mm-group and 3. 0mm-group at 1mo, but were not statistically significantly different ( P > 0. 05 ) between two groups at 3mo postoperative.
CONCLUSlON:This study confirms that incision size has strong impact on the corneal higher-order aberrations, especially, 3. 0mm incision caused significant differences in the total RMS value of cornea, corneal astigmatism, spherical aberration, coma, trefoil and tear film compared with 1. 8mm micro-incision, therefore, micro-incision is very beneficial for clinical use in phacoemulsification.

Objective To investigate the association of platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase(PAF-AH) activity in children with primary nephrotic syndrome(PNS).Methods The plasma PAF-AH activity was measured in 78 children with PNS who were divided into 3 groups:steroid-responsive nephritic,steroid-dependent nephritic,steroid-resistent nephritic,after they had been given steroid for 6 months.The plasma PAF-AH activity were also measured in 60 healthy children at the same age,with spectrophotometric assay,at the ame time,the blood cholesterol was measured.Results The blood cholesterol has positive correlation with the plasma PAF-AH activity,there was no significant difference of the blood cholesterol among 3 groups in nephrotic syndrome children,there was a significant difference in the plasma PAF-AH activity among 3 groups in PNS children,but there was no significant difference in the plasma PAF-AH activity between the groups of steroid-responsive nephritic and healthy children.Conclusion Plasma PAF-AH activity is related to the sensibility to steroid treatment in children′s PNS,and the plasma PAF-AH activity in steroid-resistent nephritic is higher than steroid-dependent nephritic.It is a question that if gene mutation is related with PAF-AH activity.
