Objective To study the activated status of insula during the performance of word generation task, and to explore the function of different part of insula with functional MRI (fMRI). Methods Twenty-eight subjects were recruited in this study (male 15, female 13), all of them underwent block-designed fMRI with word generation tasks and resting-state scan. SPM 5 and REST 1.3 were used to process the data. Bilateral anterior insula and posterior insula were selected as seeds to calculate the connectivity coefficiency with other voxels, and differences between the anterior and the posterior insula were compared. Results Bilateral anterior insula was significantly activated, while bilateral posterior insula was significantly deactivated. The functional connectivity areas with left anterior insula included right anterior insula, right posterior insula, supplementary motor area (SMA), left superior temporal gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, left superior frontal gyrus, left inferior parietal lobe, middle cingulate gyrus, right striatum and right inferior frontal gyrus. The functional connectivity areas with left posterior insula included right posterior insula, left anterior insula, right superior temporal gyrus, middle cingulate gyrus, right precentral gyrus and right striatum. The functional connectivity areas with right anterior insula included SMA, left inferior frontal gyrus, right inferior parietal lobe, left inferior parietal lobe, left superior temporal gyrus, right precentral gyrus, right striatum, middle cingulate gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, left striatum, right middle frontal gyrus, right inferior frontal gyrus and left transverse temporal gyrus. The functional connectivity areas with right posterior insula included right precentral gyrus, left superior temporal gyrus, left anterior insula, left posterior insula, right supramarginal gyrus and middle cingulate gyrus. Conclusion Anterior insula and posterior insula are functionally connected with different areas, and concerned with the language function in different manners. Left lateral anterior insula may play an important role in the language function.

Patient satisfaction is an important indicator of hospital management and the main basis for measuring the quality of medical services. This paper rounded up relevant literature of patient satisfaction in recent years from three dimensions of the theoretical models, index system construction and evaluation methods by searching EI, Elsevier SD, CNKI and other databases. It found that the current patient satisfaction is mainly evaluated by questionnaire scoring, the evaluation methods are relatively single and mostly involve qualitative indicators. On this basis, this paper proposes that qualitative and quantitative indicators should be associated, the multiple evaluation methods should be combined, the third-party evaluation agencies and intelligent means should be synchronized in the process of patient satisfaction, which aims to provide a reference for improving hospital management level and medical service quality.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Xiaonang Tiaojing decoction(XNTJD)in improving polycystic ovary syndrome with insulin resistance(PCOS-IR)model rats based on anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH)/AMH type Ⅱ receptor(AMHRⅡ)signaling pathway. MethodForty-eight adult female SD rats were randomly divided into the blank group, model group, XNTJD group(11.4 g·kg-1·d-1) and Diane-35 group(0.21 g·kg-1·d-1), PCOS-IR model was established by high-fat and high-sugar diet combined with letrozole in rats of all groups except the blank group, rats in the administration groups were given the corresponding dose of drugs by gavage for 15 days with an interval of 1 d every 4 d, normal saline of the same volume was given to the blank group and the model group. Estrous cycle was recorded daily during treatment. At the end of treatment, body weight and Lee's index were recorded, AMH, luteinizing hormone(LH), LH/follicle stimulating hormone(FSH), testosterone(T)and estradiol(E2)levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), fasting plasma glucose(FPG)was measured by glucometer, fasting insulin(FINS) level was measured by radioimmunoassay(RIA), and the insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) and insulin sensitivity index(QUICKI)were calculated, triglyceride(TG)and total cholesterol(TC)levels were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer, hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the morphological changes of the ovary, the levels of AMHRⅡ, bone morphogenetic protein-15(BMP-15)and Smad5 in ovarian tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC),Western blot was used to analyze the protein expression levels of AMHRⅡ, BMP-15 and Smad5. ResultCompared with the blank group, a large number of leukocytes were observed in the vaginal exfoliated cells of rats in the model group, mainly in diestrus, the levels of body weight, Lee's index, glucose-lipid metabolism indexes(FPG, FINS, HOMA-IR, TG, TC), AMH and sex hormones(LH, LH/FSH, T)were significantly increased(P<0.01), and QUICKI and E2 levels were significantly decreased(P<0.01), there were more cystic bulges on the ovarian surface, more wet weight, more atretic and cystic dilated follicles in the ovarian tissues, and the thickness of granulosa cell layer was reduced without oocytes, the expression level of AMHRⅡ protein in ovarian tissues was significantly increased(P<0.01), and the expression levels of BMP-15 and Smad5 proteins were significantly decreased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the exfoliated cells in the vagina of rats treated with XNTJD group showed keratinocytes from the 5th to 6th day of treatment, and a stable estrous cycle gradually appeared, body weight, Lee's index, glucose-lipid metabolism indexes(FPG, FINS, HOMA-IR, TG, TC), AMH and sex hormones(LH, LH/FSH, T)levels were significantly decreased(P<0.05, P<0.01), QUICKI and E2 levels were significantly increased(P<0.01), ovarian surface was smoother and lighter in wet weight, oocytes and mature follicles were observed in ovarian tissues, the thickness of granulosa cell layer increased and the morphology was intact, the expression levels of BMP-15 and Smad5 proteins were significantly increased(P<0.01)and the expression level of AMHRⅡ protein was significantly decreased(P<0.01)in ovarian tissues. ConclusionXNTJD may mediate the up-regulation of BMP-15 and Smad5 in ovarian tissues of PCOS-IR rats by down-regulating AMH/AMHRⅡ, thereby improving ovarian function, sex hormones and glucose-lipid metabolism levels in PCOS-IR rats.

OBJECTIVETo survey the acceptance and willingness-to-pay for colorectal cancer colonoscopy screening among high risk populations in urban China.
METHODSFrom 2012 to 2013, a Cancer Screening Program in Urban China (CanSPUC) was initiated in 9 provinces, the current survey was conducted among those participants who were evaluated as "high risk for colorectal cancer" by a risk-factor-evaluation-model (community-based) and then went through a colonoscopy screening procedure (hospital-based). All the data were obtained through a questionnaire-based interview (face-to-face or self-completed), mainly focusing on the acceptance and willingness-to-pay of the participants for colorectal colonoscopy screening.
RESULTSThe current analysis included a total of 1 624 participants, with an median age of 55.0 years (P25 = 49.0, P75 = 61.0 years) and an annual income per capita of 17 thousand (range: 10-25 thousand) Chinese Yuan (CNY), 42.8% (695/1 624) of whom were males. Of all the participants, 87.0% (1 414/1 624) could totally or substantially accept the colonoscopy screening, particularly in those at higher education level (junior high school: OR = 0.34, 95% CI: 0.22-0.52; high school OR = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.26-0.66; college or over OR = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.20-0.59). Of all the participants, 13.0% (210/1 624) could not or hardly accept it, particularly in those with older age (60-69 years) (OR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.06-2.07), not in marriage (OR = 2.15, 95% CI: 1.25-3.70) or with family member(s) to raise (OR = 1.60, 95% CI: 1.17-2.20). 1 388 (85.5%) of all the participants had willingness-to-pay for a long-term colonoscopy screening service, particularly in those working in public (OR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.44-0.84) or enterprise sectors (OR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.38-0.94), but 82.3% (1 141/1 386) of whom would only pay less than 100 CNY; 14.5% (236/1 624) of total had no willingness-to-pay, particularly in those living in areas with moderate (OR = 4.08, 95% CI: 2.75-6.33) or high GDP per capita (OR = 3.26, 95% CI: 2.11-4.92), or with an absence of willingness-to-pay for colonoscopy screening (OR = 3.98, 95% CI: 2.81-5.65).
CONCLUSIONSAlthough a larger community-based colorectal cancer screening program was warranted to examine the extrapolation of these findings, it suggested that the acceptance for colorectal cancer colonoscopy screening among the selected high-risk populations was considerable. The willing-to-pay was relatively high but the amount of payment was limited, the indicated subgroups with potentially less acceptance or willingness need to be more focused in the future to reach a higher participation rate. The data will also be informative in integrating the screening service into the local health insurance system.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of iron deficiency(ID)and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in pregnant women in urban areas of China. Methods The study was a national cross-sectional survey conducted from September 19th, 2016 to November 20th, 2016. According to the classification of the National Bureau of Statistics, all survey sites were set up in 6 regions of the country. Pregnant women were continuously selected using multistage stratified sampling. A total of 12 403 pregnant women were collected and examined for serum ferritin and hemoglobin levels. Results The median serum ferritin level during pregnancy was 20.60 μg/L(11.78-36.98 μg/L), the hemoglobin level was(118±12)g/L. With the progress of pregnancy, the levels of serum ferritin and hemoglobin decreased gradually. The median serum ferritin levels in the first, second trimester and third trimester were 54.30 μg/L(34.48-94.01 μg/L), 28.60 μg/L(16.40-50.52 μg/L), and 16.70 μg/L(10.20-27.00 μg/L)respectively(P<0.01). The mean hemoglobin levels were(127 ± 10)g/L,(119 ± 11)g/L and(117 ± 11)g/L respectively(P<0.01). The prevalence of ID in urban pregnant women was 48.16%(5 973/12 403), and IDA prevalence was 13.87% (1 720/12 403). The prevalence of IDA in the first, second trimester and third trimester were 1.96% (20/1 019), 8.40%(293/3 487)and 17.82%(1 407/7 897), respectively(P<0.01). The prevalence of standardized ID and IDA were significantly different in various regions of China(P<0.01). The standardized prevalence of ID were relatively higher in East China and Northeast China, 57.37% and 53.41% respectively, while it was the lowest in Southwest China, 30.51%. The standardized prevalence of IDA in South Central, Northwest, and East China were relatively high, 21.30%, 16.97% and 17.53% respectively, and the standardized prevalence of IDA in Southwest China was the lowest, 5.44%,the differents in various regions were significant(all P<0.01). Conclusion The current phenomenon of ID and IDA in pregnant women is still very common,and nutrition and health care during pregnancy should be strengthened.
