Objective　To explore the relationship of defense style and mental health in student of middle school. Method 203 middle student were investigated with Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ) and Symptom Check List-90 (SCL-90). Results There were no significant difference for 4 factors of DSQ in man／female and advance middle school or not(P>0.05); there were significant difference for immature defense mechanism and middle type factor ,and conceal factor in high-symptom score team with that of low-symptom sore team(P<0.01) and it is positive-correlation with each factor-score and total score of SCL-90. Conclusion School and family need to pay attention to the higher correlation in the total score of SCL-90 with immature defense mechanism and middle type factor and conceal factor.

Epidermnoid cysts are henign, cutaneous cysts which commonly occur on face, neck and trunk. Retroauricular epidermoid cyst is rare reported which should be differentiated from auricle pseudocyst, lipoma, steatocystoma and fibroma. The hitopathological examination is a gold standard of diagnosis. Surgery of complete excision is the first choice of treatment methods.

BACKGROUND: Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system existed in bone tissue. Recent studies on antihypertensive drugs found that angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor type antihypertensive drug was possibly effective for osteoporosis. Perindopril is one of the commonly used antihypertensive drugs. Whether perindopril affected bone metabolism or could be used in anti-osteoporosis has not been reported.
OBJECTIVE: To observe effects of perindopril on bone metabolism in a rat model of osteoporosis induced by retinoic acid.
METHODS: Fifty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups, with ten in each group. In the model group and each perindopril groups, rats were intragastricaly administered retinoic acid solution 80 mg/kg per day. After successful model establishment, rats in different perindopril groups were intragastrical y administered perindopril 2, 4 and 8 mg/kg per day, once a day, for 42 consecutive days. In the normal control and model groups, rats were given an equal volume of distil ed water. Serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, bone mass and bone mineral density were detected in each group. Expression of bone specific alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase mRNA in bone tissue was determined.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the model group, after treatment with perindopril, serum calcium and phosphorus levels were increased, alkaline phosphatase activities were significantly decreased, bone mass and bone mineral density were obviously increased in rats with retinoic acid-induced osteoporosis. Expression of bone specific alkaline phosphatase mRNA was higher in the perindopril 8 mg/kg group than in the perindopril 2 and 4 mg/kg groups and model group. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase mRNA expression was higher in the perindopril 8 mg/kg group than in the model group. These results indicated that perindopril could improve partial bone metabolic biochemical markers in osteoporosis rats, promoted bone formation by up-regulating bone specific alkaline phosphatase mRNA expression, and had a certain preventive effect on retinoic acid-induced osteoporosis.

Objective To analyze warfarin anticoagulation therapy for patients after heart valve replacement,and to explore an optimal intensity of warfarin anticoagulation.Methods The administration method,international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring of 265 patients who received warfarin anticoagulation therapy after heart valve replacement were analyzed retrospectively.The patients were divided into three groups according to different valve prostheses:aortic valve replacement (AVR) group (37 cases),mitral valve replacement (MVR) group (165 cases) and double valve replacement (DVR) group (63 cases).Each group was divided into two subgroups according to their INR levels (INR 1.5-2.0,INR 2.1-2.5).The occurrence of bleeding and thromboembolic events in these subgroups were compared.Results A total of 265 cases were visited,and followed up for 4 months to 6 years.The dose of warfarin was 0.625-7.500 (2.5 ± 1.4) mg/d.The incidence of anticoagulation adverse events was 23 cases.The incidence of bleeding events was 6.79％ (18/265),which was higher than that of thromboembolic events (1.89％,5/265),and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).Four cases of the hemiplegia sequelae occurred and 2 cases died.The incidence of bleeing events in patients with INR1.5-2.0 in AVR group,MVR group and DVR group were 0 (0/20),3.57％ (3/84),2.70％ (1/37),in patients with INR 2.1-2.5 were 1/17,11.11％ (9/81),15.38％ (4/26),and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of thromboembolic events between INR 1.5-2.0 and INR 2.1-2.5 in AVR group,MVR group and DVR group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions After heart valve replacement,the anticoagulation therapy with warfarin is effective and safe to maintain the low intensity anticoagulation (INR1.5-2.0).AVR and MVR/DVR may benefit from a treatment strategy with levels ranging from 1.5-1.8 and 1.8-2.0,and the anticoagulation therapy of individuation should be formulated according to different conditions.

Objective In order to study the difference of depression-like behaviours among three widelyused stress models in rats.Methods The new-born Spragne-Dawley rats were randomly divided into maternal deprivation(MD) group(n=27),chronic mild stress(CMS) group (n=29),dual stress(DS) group ( n=31 ) and control (C) group ( n =30) on postnatal day 1.MD rats only received maternal deprivation.CMS rats only received chronic mild stress when 10 weeks old.DS rats received both maternal deprivation and chronic mild stress.Control rats received no experimental handling.Behavior tests including forced swimming test and sucrose consumption which were carried out to evaluate rats' depression-like behaviors in the thirteenth weeks.The extend time of floating and sucrose preference ratio should be recorded in the forced swimming test and sucrose consumption test respectively to reflect the behavior of helplessness and anhedonia of rats.Results In the forced swimming test,the extend floating time of MD group( 119.30 ± 65.56) s,CMS group ( 145.00 ± 80.24) s and DS group ( 170.03 ±61.75 )s were longer than the control group(81.14 ± 52.40)s (F =11.53,P ＜ 0.01 ).In the sucrose consumption test,the MD group(0.32 ± 0.22) had a low sucrose consumption.The comparison of the MD group and CMS group (0.43 ± 0.28 ) to the control group (0.54 ± 0.28 ) had significant differences (F =4.33,P ＜ 0.01 ).In these four groups,no sexual difference was found in the forced swimming test and sucrose consumption test ( all P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion The results suggest that MD,CMS and DS may induce some kind of depression-like behaviors in rodents such as anhedonia or the behavior of helplessness and the depression-like behaviors induced by different stresses are similar in male and female individuals.

Objective To explore the effects of beraprost sodium (BPS) on angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ)-induced podocyte apoptosis and the relationship between BPS and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor δ(PPARδ). Methods Differentiated mouse podocytes were exposed to AngⅡ, further treated with BPS (or GSK0660) for 24 h. Podocyte apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry and AnnexinV-FITC staining. Bax , Bcl-2 and PPARδ mRNA were assessed by RT-PCR. Results AngⅡ promoted podocyte apoptosis and Bax mRNA expression significantly, down-regulated Bcl-2 and inhibited PPARδ mRNA (P < 0.05). Conversely, treatment with BPS reduced AngⅡ-induced podocyte apoptosis and Bax mRNA expression and promoted Bcl-s expression significantly resulting in an increase of PPARδ mRNA expression (P < 0.05). With the inhibition of PPARδ, podocyte apoptosis and Bax mRNA expression increased while Bcl-2 mRNA expression reduced. Conclusion BPS can effectively reduce AngⅡ-induced podocyte apoptosis , which is associated with the activation of PPARδand regulation of Bcl-2/Bax mRNA expression.

Objective To investigate the possible association between vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endostatin (ES) and type 2 diabetic nephropathy. Methods The level of serum VEGF and ES were measured by ELISA in eighty type 2 diabetic patients including thirty subjects without diabetic nephropathy , twenty with microalbuminuria and thirty with macroalbuminuria, and the correlation was analyzed. Results The level of serum VEGF and ES in patients with macroalbuminuria were both significantly higher than that of patients with and without microalbuminuria (P < 0.05). The level of serum VEGF and ES in patients with microalbuminuria were significantly higher than that of patients without diabetic nephropathy (P<0.05). Both VEGF and ES level were positively correlated with the level of microalbuminuria (mAlb) (r=0.226, P<0.01; r=0.491, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with the level of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (r=-0.237, P<0.05;r=-0.620, P<0.01). There was a significantly positive correlation between VEGF and ES in patients with microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria (r1=0.633, P1<0.01; r2=0.532, P2<0.05). However, there was no correlation between VEGF and ES in patients without diabetic nephropathy (r3=0.175, P3>0.05). Conclusion The levels of VEGF and ES in type 2 diabetic nephropathy had varying degree of increasing in different diabetic nephropathy stage , and closely related to mAlb and eGFR. Disequilibrium of VEGF and ES may speed up the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

The present study reported the observations with light and electronic micros copy on hybrid cells crossed between rat intermediate or late erythroblasts and mouse SP2/0 plasmocytoma cells. In a short period after fusion, the cell size and the ratio of nuclear heterochromatin in hybrid cells appeared to be increased, but the number of nucleoli, as well as the number of microvilli, finger-like processes, and nuclear cytoplasmic ratio were decreased. Swelling mitochondria, pycnotic nuclei and/or process of enucleation also could be seen in some hybrid cells. The subcul tured hybrid cells were characterized with less microvilli and cellular surface membrane processes, and showing marked changes in nuclear size, as well as the appearance of cytoplasmic vesicles and dense granules in some cells. The observations mentioned above provide morphological and ultrastructural evidences for the regulation of malignant phenotype of hybrid cell model we reported previously. The possible relationship between the deeancerization and the morphological changes of hybrid cell nucleus, cytoplasm and cell surface were briefly discussed.
