Objective: The goal of this research was to explore the relationship among attachment to parents,perceived academic achievement and self-esteem in high school students. Methods: High school students from four areas completed the following four questionnaires: Relationship Questionnaire(RQ),Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory(ECR),Self-esteem(SES) and Perceived Academic Achievement. Results: ①The scores of perceived academic achievement in students with attachment preoccupied to father were significantly lower than those with attachment dismissed to father. ②Attachment avoidance to father,attachment anxiety to father and self-esteem were positive correlated to perceived academic achievement (r=0.195,0.166 and 0.325). ③Attachment avoidance could predict the scores of perceived academic achievement. Conclusion: There are close relationship between adult attachment to father and perceived academic achievement,and self-esteem.

Objective To systematically evaluate the relationship between p53 gene codon72 polymorphism and onset risk of prostate cancer (PCa) among Asian population by meta-analysis.Methods The databases of PubMed,Medline,Ovid,Wanfang and CNKI were retrieved for screening the case control trials on the relationship between p53 gene codon72 polymorphism and onset risk of PCa among Asian population.The obtained data were statistically analyzed by using the Stata 12.0 software,moreover the data reliability and publication bias of statistical literature were evaluated.Results The meta analysis showed that the p53 gene codon72 polymorphism had no obvious correlation with PCa onset risk in Asian population.The subgroup analysis results on the control source showed the coden72 polymorphism in P vs.A,PP vs.AA,PA+PP vs.AA models based on the hospital source subgroup could significantly decrease the Pca susceptibility among Asian population[P vs.A:OR =0.680,95 ％ CI(0.546,0.847),P=0.001;PP vs.AA:OR=0.409,95％CI(0.260,0.645),P=0.000;PA+PP vs.AA:OR=0.513,95％CI(0.350,0.749),P=0.001],whereas the codon 72 polymorphism in PA vs.AA and PA+PP vs.AA genotypes in the control source subgroup based on the common population increased the PCa onset risk among Asian population [PA vs.AA:OR=1.664,95 ％CI(1.272,2.177),P=0.000;PA+ PP vs.AA:OR =1.314,95 ％ CI(1.020,1.693),P =0.003 6].The subgroup analysis was conducted according to whether conforming to the HWE equilibrium,the results showed p53 gene codon 72 polymorphosm was a protective factor for decreasing PCasusceptibility among Asian population in the subgroup unconforming to the HWE equilibrium [PP vs.AA:OR=0.251,95％CI(0.135,0.467),P=0.000;PA+PPvs.AA:OR=0.564,95％CI=(0.330,0.964),P=0.036].Conclusion p53 gene codon72 polymorphism has no relation with PCa susceptibility among Asian population.

Objective To observe the effects of GABA on proliferation, cell cycle and expression of MMP-2, MMP-9 of pancreatic cancer cell line SW1990. Methods The effects of different concentration of GABA (0 ～ 320 μmol/L) on proliferation and cell cycle of pancreatic cancer cell line SW1990 was investigated by MTT assay and flow cytometry analysis, respectively. Expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 proteins were evaluated by Western blot analysis. Results GABA could promote the proliferation of SW1990 cells and influence the distribution of cell cycle, which made less cells of G0/G1 phase and more cells of S and G2/M phase. The value of A570 after GABA pretreatment at a dose of 320 μmol/L was 1. 11 ± 0.03, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (0. 56 ± 0.01, P < 0. 01 ), the cells of G0/G1 phase was (46.18 ± 1.12 )% ,which was significantly lower than (87.29 ± 1.34)% in the control group (P < 0. 01 ) ;the expressions of MMP-2 mRNA, MMP-9 mRNA and their proteins were 8.6, 6.8, 10.5, 8.4, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the groups of the doses of 0 ～ 40 μmol/L ( P < 0. 05 ). Conclusions GABA could influence the proliferation and expression of MMP of SW1990 cells.

Objective] To explore the safety and effectiveness of Dexmedetomidine ( Dex) at dif-ferent doses used in laparoscopic partial hepatectomy . [ Methods] A total of 60 patients ( ASA II orⅢmagnitude ) who received elective laparoscopic partial hepatectomy were randomly divided into Group D 1 and Group D2.Group D1 received vein pump injection dose of Dex load 0.2 μg/kg (10 min after injec-tion), and was followed by pump injection of 0.2μg/(kg· h) for 30 min before the end of surgery.Group D2 received vein pump injection dose of Dex load 0.2μg/kg (10 min after injection), and was followed by pump injection of 0.5 μg/( kg· h) for 30 min before the end of surgery .The patients in two groups were both given sevoflurane and propofol to maintain anesthesia in surgery and observed and recorded systolic and diastolic pressure ,heart rate ,oxygen saturation of blood ,postoperative respiratory recovery time , eye-open-ing time, extubation time and the number of agitation before infusion with Dexmedetomidine ( T0 ) , at 10 minutes after infusion of Dexmedetomidine ( T1 ) , endotracheal intubation immediately ( T2 ) , 1 min after endotracheal intubation(T3), and endotracheal tube being drawn immediately (T4). [Results] Com-paring with those at the time of entering the operation room , blood pressure and heart rate in the two groups before and after intubation and at the extubation time were not significantly different (P>0.05).The respi-ratorg recovery time ,eye-opening time and extubation time of group D 2 were longer than those of group D 1 (P<0.05). [Conclusion] With maintained pump infusion of Dex at dose of 0.2 μg/(kg· h),pa-tients undergoing laparoscopic partial hepatectomy have more stable hemodynamics and revive more quickly and completely after operation .

To explore the antagonistic effect of gingerols against the inflammation induced by lectin from Pinellia ternata. In this study, ELISA method was used to determine the effect of different extracts from gingerols on the release of inflammatory factor TNF-α from macrophages induced by lectin from P. ternata. The fluorescence probe was used to determine the effect of gingerols on the changes in ROS of macrophages induced by lectin from P. ternata. The western-blot method was applied to study the effect of gingerols on the increase in expression of cell receptor interacting protein RIP3 in macrophages induced by lectin from P. ternata. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to study the effect of gingerols on morphological changes in macrophages induced by lectin from P. ternata. According to the results, gingerols can significantly inhibit the release of inflammatory factor from macrophages induced by lectin from P. ternata, ROS overproduction and increase in RIP3 expression. SEM results showed that gingerols can inhibit the cytomorphosis and necrocytosis induced by lectin from P. ternata. Fresh ginger's detoxication may be related to gingerols' effects in inhibiing release of inflammatory factor, ROS overproduction and increase in RIP3 expression caused by macrophages induced by lectin from P. ternata, which are mainly inflammatory development.

Objective The purpose of this study was to understand the awareness, prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and treatment status of people aged over 50 and living in the rural areas of Shuangcheng city, Heilongjiang province, China. Methods Cluster sampling was used in randomly selected 5504 survey for ophthalmic clinical examination, in patients with diabetic retinopathy. A questionnaire in the state of knowledge about prevention and treatment was developed. Results Among the 5504 persons entering in the project, 5053 were examined on their eyes (91.8%). In this selected population, 56 persons (112 eyes) were diagnosed as diabetic retinopathy (1.108%), with 95% confidence interval (CI) as: 0.819% to 1.397%. Of 56 patients, 49 cases were non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, accounting for 87.50% of the total number of patients with diabetic retinopathy;proliferative diabetic retinopathy 7 cases, accounting for 12.50% of the 112 eyes, 6.25% (7/112)having vitreous hemorrhage, 8.04% (9/112) having macular edema. For diabetic retinopathy prevalence rates, there was no significant difference in males and females. Between the per differential 10-year-old division, the difference was significant. Among the 60 to 69 group, a significantly higher prevalence rate was seen. Of the 112 eyes with diabetic retinopathy, 34 eyes(30.4%) were low vision [visual acuity ＜20/60 (0.3) to ≥ 20/400 (0.05) ]; 6 eyes (5.4%) were blind [visual acuity ＜20/400 (0.05) to NLP]. The rate in the patients with PDR and fasting blood glucose was above 11.1 mmol/L was higher than having NPDR and fasting blood glucose below 11.1 mmol/L. Having fasting blood glucose 11.1 mmol/L and above with the course over five years among patients with PDR, the proportion of fasting blood glucose was higher than those with less than 11.1 mmol/L and diabetic retinopathy duration of less than five years. Of 56 patients with diabetic retinopathy, 38 cases (67.9%) did not receive any treatment. Among 18 cases (32.1%) with insulin or oral drug therapy,regularly using insulin or other medication (14.3%), only 1 (1.8%) case was given the treatment for diabetic retinopathy. Results from our survey showed that patients with diabetic retinopathy had a poor understanding about prevention and treatment of the disease. Conclusion Long duration and high blood glucose in patients with diabetic retinopathy seemed to be the important risk factor. Early systematic drug use for prevention and blood glucose control was the key to prevent diabetic retinopathy. Patients with diabetic retinopathy in China had poor understanding about the prevention measures of the disease and lack of knowledge.

OBJECTIVETo explore the efficacy of homemade hemostatics of injected gelatin matrix (HIGM) for immediately treating blunt hepatic trauma in canine model without additional pressure.

METHODSA total of 27 commercial hybrid dogs underwent celiotomy to establish hepatic trauma model after general anesthesia. The dogs were prospectively randomized into 3 groups: the treatment group (n=9, with the direct application of homemade hemostat), the positive control group (n=9, with thrombin solution), and the negative control group (n=9, with 0.9% normal saline). Time to hemostasis and intra-abdominal blood loss were recorded, and heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and hematological parameters were compared among these three groups. Gross examinations were performed 30 minutes after surgery.

RESULTSSignificantly shorter time to hemostasis [(1.20±0.33) min] and less blood loss [(47.22±8.61) ml] were observed in the treatment group than in control groups (P 0.05). No cases of bleeding occurred in any animals in the treatment group, and no signs of infection and adhesion formation were evident due to exposure to HIGM. Two cases in the positive control group (22.22%) were found to have rebleeding. All animals in the negative control group experienced visible bleeding.

CONCLUSIONHIGM is effective for controlling bleeding after hepatic trauma without the additional compression, and therefore may be valuable in field surgery.

OBJECTIVETo extract and separate toxic components from Phytolaccae Radix, and to comare the changes in toxicity of Phytolaccae Radix before and after being processed with vinegar.

METHODThe mucous membrane irritation response, mouse peritoneal inflammation model and in vitro macrophages release NO model were applied to compared the changes in inflammatory toxicity of toxic components from Phytolaccae Radix before and after being processed with vinegar.

RESULTToxic components of Phytolacca Radix had significant inflammatory toxicity, which could cause conjunctival edema in rabbits, and increase of PGE2 and macrophages release NO content in peritoneal exudate in mice. After being processed with vinegar, they showed reduced irritation, which resulted in decrease of PGE2 and macrophages release NO content in peritoneal exudate in mice.

CONCLUSIONAfter being processed with vinegar, the toxicity of toxic components from Phytolacca Radix decreased obviously.
