Surveillance data on incidence and mortality rate of stoke from January 1996 to December 1998 in the county were retrospectively checked and reinvestigated.The CVHI of 35 years old and over in this population which have one and more of risk factors were measured,their CVHI total score

Crisis is an emergent event that threatens the national security, social regulation, civilian property and life, and needs urgent, decisive response in the condition of high instability. Crisis management should be prompt, active, honest, responsible and soluble, and should be carried out according to the model of preparation, reduction, response and recovery. SARS outbreak in China revealed constitutive defects in the immediate response for emergent public health event as well as crisis management. This paper provides some information for establishing the immediate response system for emergent public health event and crisis management.

Objective To explore the effect of nursing intervention on the oral hygiene of vagrant patients with mental problems.Methods Toally 80 vagrant patients with mental problems were saved and treated with oral health care intervention for a period of three months.The pre-intervention effects were prepared with the post-intervention ones in terms of tooth brushing,oral health and periodontal disease related symptoms intervention.Results Before intervention,the rate of tooth brushing was significantly higher and the rate of periodontal disease related symptoms significantly lower than that before intervention (P＜0.05).The scores on physical function limitation,pain and discomfort,psychological discomfort,weakened ability in independent living and the total score after intervention were all significantly lowered as compared to the pre-intervention.Conclusion Oral nursing intervention can improve oral hygiene and oral health of vagrant patients with mental diseases.

Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of hospital-acquired infection. Because the bacteria are very easy to become resistant to antibiotics, vaccination is a main method against S. aureus infection. Clumping factor B (ClfB) is an adhesion molecule essential for S. aureus to colonize in the host mucosa and is regarded as an important target antigen. In this study, we successfully used Escherichia coli to express a segment encoding the N1-N3 regions of ClfB protein (Truncated-ClfB) cloned from S. aureus. The protein was purified by affinity and ion exchange chromatographies and gel filtration. Rabbits were immunized three times with purified Truncated-ClfB. After that, blood was collected to prepare serum which were then used for measurement of antibody level. Phagocytosis of S. aureus opsonized by the serum was determined by a flow cytometry. Results show that the serum IgG titer reached 1:640 000. Phagocytosed S. aureus by polymorphonuclear leukocytes were significantly more when the bacteria were opsonized by the serum from Truncated-ClfB immunized rabbits than those from no immunized group (P < 0.01). Therefore, the results indicated that Truncated-ClfB could be a promising vaccine candidate against S. aureus infection.

Objective To investigate the value of the hippocampal subfield's MRI T2 signal intensity in evaluating the effect of the hydrochloric donepezil for mild cognitive impairment(MCI).Methods 20 MCI patients with hydrochloric donepezil (treatment group) and 20 patients with placebo (control group) were scanned by MRI using FSE-T2 sequence.The margin of hippocampal subfields was outlined manually for each side to measure the MRI T2 signal intensity.The relationship between hippocampal MRI T2 signal intensity and MMSE scores was analyzed in the treatment group.Results Before the treatment, there was no significant difference of the MRI T2 signal intensity between groups.After the treatment, the MRI T2 signal intensity in the bilateral head of the treatment group was significantly decreased compared with the control group(P<0.05).There was an inverse relationship between the MRI T2 signal intensity of the bilateral hippocampal head and MMSE scores in the treatment group(P<0.05).Conclusion The MRI T2 signal intensity in the bilateral hippocampal head could be regarded as a valuable marker in making clinical diagnosis and evaluating the effect of the treatment for MCI in its early stage.

Objective To understand the dynamic of Oncomelania hupensis snail status in Duchang County at north shore of Poyang Lake so as to provide the evidence for formulating the strategy of schistosomiasis control. Methods The data about the snail status in Duchang County from 2005 to 2012 were collected and the change trend of the snail status was analyzed. Re?sults From 2005 to 2012 all the average density of living snails the occurrence rate of frames with living snails the density of infected snails and the area with infected snails showed a trend of sharp decline and stayed at a low level. Compared to 2005 the above 4 indexes in 2008 decreased by 70.06% 90.33% 79.48% and 37.88% respectively and those in 2012 decreased by 99.35% 98.98% 99.33% and 93.84% respectively. The infection rates of snails fluctuated between 0.06%and 0.53%which showed a trend of first decrease and then increase. The snail area maintained at the level of 2 052.5 hm2 since 2007. Con?clusions Most of the indexes of the snail status in Duchang County have decreased to the lowest level in history since 2012 but the snail area is stable and the infection rate of snails shows a fluctuation trend which suggests that the risks of schistosomia?sis transmission still exist and the snail control still should be strengthened.

Objective: To compare the accumulative scores of cerebrovascular hemodynamic parameters (CVHP) in different populations and to analyze the relationship between the change of accumulative scores and the risk of stroke. Methods: A total of 10 565 participants aged 40 years and above were selected from a cluster sampling community-based population. Their risk factors were investigated and CVHP was evaluated. The CVHP scores were accumulated by a unified approach, and the incidence of stroke was followed up. The participants were grouped into health adult, single factor exposure, multiple-factor exposure, and newly developed stroke during the follow-up period. The differences of CVHP accumulative scores and the change law among the 4 groups were compared respectively according to age and sex. Results: The accumu-lative scores of the mean (SD) CVHP in the health adult, single factor exposure, multiple-factor exposure, and newly developed stroke groups were 86.44 (20.69), 72.07 (28.10), 60.82(34.64), and4.01 (29.36) in men respectively, and they were 83.95 (22.19), 67.97 (29.73),59.91 (31.34), and 42.64 (28.00) in women respectively, which had a tendency to gradually decrease. The accumulative scores of CVHP and their distributions at the same age stage in all the 4 groups had significant differences (P ＜ 0.01 ). The accumulative scores of CVHP and their distributions for the same factors between all age groups also had significant differences (P ＜0. 01). Conclusions: The accumulative scores of CVHP had a tendency to gradually decrease from the health adults, risk factor exposure to high risk status before stroke. The decrease of the accumulative scores is closely associated with the increase of stroke risk, which can be used as a predictor of stroke.

A comparison of the volatile compounds in Rhizomes Curcumae （Ezhu） and Radix Curcumae （Yujin） was undertaken using gas chromatography mass spectrometi-y （GC-MS）. Ultrasonic extraction and GC-MS methods were developed for the simultaneous determination of five sesquiterpenes, namely, α-pinene, β-elemene, curcumol, germacrone and curdione, in Ezhu and Yunjin. Good linearity （r〉0.999） and high inter-day precision were observed over the investigated concentration ranges. The validated method was successfully used for the simultaneous determination of five sesquiterpenes in Ezhu and Yujin. The quantitative method can be effectively used to evaluate and monitor the quality of Chinese curcuma in clinical use.
