Objective:To explore the prevalence and influencing factors of mental violence in intimate partner violence.Methods:A total of 900 people, who aged 18 to 65 with marriage or love experience, were selected from Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region using stratification cluster method. A self-designed questionnaire for general information, the brief conflict tactics scale 2 (CTS-2), perceived stress scales (PSS) and personality diagnostic questionnaire-4+ (PDQ-4+ ) were used for questionnaire investigation. The influencing factors of mental violence were analyzed by binary logistic regression analysis model using SPSS 17.0 software.Results:The scores of CTS-2, PPS and PDQ-4+ were (21.46±6.38), (42.48±18.91), and (3.05±0.62), respectively. In the past one year, the incidence of abusing partners, emotional violence, destroying each other's goods and threatening to hit each other in mental violence were 41.67% (375/900), 33.44% (301/900), and 8.44% (76/900), respectively. Based on the scores of three items, the incidence of mental violence was 55.44% (499/900). Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed age≤29 ( β=0.57, OR=2.53, 95% CI=1.11-5.99), male ( β=0.64, OR=3.68, 95% CI=1.22-4.56), rural ( β=0.12, OR=2.49, 95% CI=1.17-5.36), moderate and severe drinking ( β=0.33, OR=2.87, 95% CI=2.57-6.63), higher perceived stress level ( β=0.51, OR=1.05, 95% CI=1.03-1.09), personality factors deviate ( β=0.43, OR=2.26, 95% CI=2.13-2.39), lower marital satisfaction ( β=0.18, OR=2.05, 95% CI=1.03-8.76), behavior control over partner ( β=0.16, OR=2.55, 95% CI=1.68-3.69), economic control over partners ( β=0.19, OR=1.36, 95% CI=1.28-1.55) were risk factors of mental violence in intimate partner violence, while individual opposed attitude towards violence ( β=0.29, OR=0.88, 95% CI=0.80-0.94) was the protective factor of mental violence in intimate partner violence. Conclusion:The annual incidence of mental violence is high. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on the young, male, rural and personality deviant people. The incidence of mental violence may be reduced by reducing the individual's perceived stress level, drinking level, behavior control and economic control over partners, and strengthening the marital satisfaction and the individual's opposition to violence.

Objective:To investigate changes in the expression of Cosmc and T-synthase in peripheral B lymphocytes and in serum levels of galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) in patients with Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura (HSP) .Methods:From January to August 2014, 56 patients with HSP were collected from outpatient or inpatient department of dermatology and venereology in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, and were divided into 4 groups, including skin type group (22 cases) , joint type group (9 cases) , abdominal type group (12 cases) and renal type group (13 cases) . Twenty healthy volunteers served as healthy controls. Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR was performed to determine the mRNA expression of Cosmc and T-synthase in peripheral B lymphocytes, and a lectin-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect the serum level of Gd-IgA1. Comparisons among multiple groups were performed using one-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis H test, multiple comparisons were performed using least significant difference (LSD) - t test or Nemenyi test, and correlation analysis was performed using Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results:There was a significant difference in the duration from disease onset to the clinic visit ( χ2= 26.19, P < 0.05) among the skin type group (6.27 ± 3.09 d) , joint type group (5.56 ± 3.05 d) , abdominal type group (6.75 ± 3.75 d) , and renal type group (26.23 ± 14.12 d) , and the duration from disease onset to the clinic visit was significantly longer in the renal type group than in the other 3 groups (all P < 0.05) . The Cosmc mRNA expression significantly differed among the skin type group, joint type group, abdominal type group, renal type group and healthy control group (0.849 ± 0.239, 0.767 ± 0.181, 0.719 ± 0.183, 0.459 ± 0.121, 1.146 ± 0.232, F= 23.37, P < 0.05) , was significantly lower in the 4 patient groups than in the healthy control group ( P < 0.01) , and lower in the renal type group than in the other 3 patient groups (all P < 0.01) . There was no significant difference in the T-synthase mRNA expression in peripheral B lymphocytes among the patient groups and healthy control group ( F= 1.05, P > 0.05) . The serum level of Gd-IgA1 significantly differed among the skin type group, joint type group, abdominal type group, renal type group and healthy control group ( F= 7.06, P < 0.05) . Moreover, the Gd-IgA1 level was significantly higher in the patient groups than in the healthy control group (all P < 0.05) , and higher in the renal type group than in the other 3 patient groups (all P < 0.05) . The serum level of Gd-IgA1 in the HSP patients was significantly and negatively correlated with the mRNA expression of Cosmc ( rs=-0.50, P < 0.01) . Conclusion:Decreased mRNA expression of Cosmc and increased serum levels of Gd-IgA1 were observed in patients with HSP, and there was a negative correlation between the two indices.

The PEPC family proteins are ubiquitous in various plants and play an important role in the process of photosynthetic carbon assimilation and have many non-photosynthetic biological functions. However, PEPC genes have not been reported in apple. In this study, the members of apple MdPEPC family were identified based on the new apple genome data by bioinformatics analysis, and their expression patterns in different tissues and the apple axillary bud transcriptome treated by decapitation and TDZ (cytokinin) were analyzed in order to explore the role of MdPEPC genes in apple axillary bud outgrowth. The results showed that 6 MdPEPC family members were identified in apple, which distributed on 6 different chromosomes, and had similar physicochemical characteristics. Phylogenetic tree and sequence alignment analysis showed that the MdPEPC could be divided into two subgroups (Group Ⅰ and Group Ⅱ), in which four members in MdPEPC family were clustered into Group Ⅰ, belonging to plant-type PEPCs. However, MdPEPC4 and MdPEPC5 were clustered into Group Ⅱ with AtPPC4, belonging to bacterial-type PEPCs. There were 7 pairs of fragments repeats among MdPEPC members, but no tandem repeats existed. The promoter cis-acting element analysis showed that MdPEPC genes were not only affected by light and stress, but also regulated by multiple hormones. The expression profiles showed that all MdPEPCs except MdPEPC4 and MdPEPC5 were expressed in different apple tissues. Transcriptome data analysis showed that the expression levels of MdPEPC1 and MdPEPC3 were up-regulated after decapitation and TDZ treatment, whereas MdPEPC2 was significantly down-regulated at 48 h after treatments. In conclusion, MdPEPC1, MdPEPC2 and MdPEPC3 were selected as the candidate genes involved in axillary bud outgrowth regulation for further study.

OBJECTIVETo determine the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) using M-mode echocardiography, and to evaluate the right ventricular systolic function in patients with pneumoconiosis.
METHODSOne hundred and eighty-three patients with pneumoconiosis were enrolled as subjects, and one hundred and ninety-nine healthy volunteers were used as controls. According to the types of ventilation dysfunction, patients were divided into four groups: normal type, obstructive type, restrictive type, and mixed type. In the apex four-chamber sections, the displacement of tricuspid annular plane on the right ventricular free wall side was measured from end-diastole to end-systole using M-mode echocardiography.
RESULTSThe average TAPSE in the pneumoconiosis group was significantly lower than that in the control group (18.61 ± 3.08 vs 22.38 ± 3.03 mm, P < 0.01). Along with the progression of pneumoconiosis, the TAPSE values in patients with stage I, II, and III pneumoconiosis were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group (P < 0.01). The TAPSE values in patients diagnosed with normal, obstructive, restrictive, and mixed types of pneumoconiosis in pulmonary function tests were all significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.01). Among all patients, patients with mixed type of pneumoconiosis had the most significant reduction in the TAPSE.
CONCLUSIONThe TAPSE is substantially decreased in patients with pneumoconiosis and further decreased along with the progression of pneumoconiosis. Measurement of the TAPSE is an easy way to evaluate the right ventricular systolic function in patients with pneumoconiosis.
