Objective To analyze the policy support of rural doctors for the essential medicine system,and explore the main influence factors and mechanism affecting the support degree.Methods 621 rural doctors from five cities in Shandong province were subject to a stratified random sampling for a quantitative questionnaire,to build a hypothesis model of policy support of rural doctors,which is verified using factor analysis and path analysis.Results 59.1% of rural doctors support the essential drugs policy.It was found that the essential medicine factor,the factor to influence the practitioner,and the supporting policy factor had a direct impact on policy support of rural doctors,with the effect of 0.305, 0.1 59 and 0.135 respectively;Essential medicine factor and the supporting policy factor indirectly influence the policy support of rural doctors through the factor to influence practitioners,with the effect of 0.065 and 0.032 respectively.Conclusion The essential medicine system needs to emphasize such rationality as the quality,list and pricing of essential medicines;it is imperative for the government to better oversee the purchase and supply of essential drugs,to cater to the interests of rural doctors,to encourage the enforcement of the system,and promote the development of village clinics.

Objective To compare the effects of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and compound norethisterone enanthate (CNE) on the susceptibility of BABL/c mice to lower reproductive tract infection with chlamydia trachomatis (Ct). Methods A total of 60 BALB/c mice were randomly and equally divided into 6 groups:MPA-pretreated control group and CNE-pretreated control group inoculated with MyCoy cell suspensions in the vagina on the 5th day after single treatment with MPA and CNE respectively, blank control group receiving no treatment, MPA-pretreated infected group and CNE-pretreated infected group inoculated with 1 × 107 inclusion-forming units(IFU)of Ct serovar E in the vagina on the 5th day after single treatment with MPA and CNE respectively, control infected group inoculated with the same quantity of IFU of Ct serovar E in the vagina but receiving no pretreatment. On day 4, 7 and 14 after inoculation, vaginal irrigation fluid was obtained from all the mice for cell culture of Ct. Three mice were randomly selected from each of these groups at the above three time points and sacrificed, and vaginal and uterine tissue specimens were obtained for hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and microscopic examination. Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were conducted to compare infection rate among different groups. Results No growth of Ct was observed in the three control groups at the above time points. The culture-positive rate of Ct was 1/10 on day 4 but 0 on day 7 and 14 in both the CNE-pretreated infected group and control infected group, 7/10 on day 4, 2/7 on day 7 but 0 on day 14 in the MPA-pretreated infected group. Fisher's exact test revealed that the culture-positive rate of Ct was significantly higher in the MPA-pretreated infected group than in the control infected group and CNE-pretreated infected group on day 4 (both P =0.03), but similar among the three infected groups on day 7 (P = 0.23). Both the MPA-pretreated control group and infected group showed an increase in endovaginal mucus, thinning of vaginal stratified squamous epithelium, mucification of vaginal epithelium, presence of secretions in vaginal lumen and submucosal infiltration of a few inflammatory cells on day 4, 7 and 14, as well as appearance of pathological changes (including the presence of large quantities of purulent secretions in lumen, mild tissue edema and submucosal infiltration of a few inflammatory cells) in the vagina on day 4. Vaginal tissues were normal in both the CNE-pretreated infected group and control group at the above three time points, but mild tissue edema, lumen expansion, secretion retention and infiltration of scattered inflammatory cells were observed in the uterus on day 4 after inoculation. Conclusions MPA can arrest the estrous cycle of mice at diestrus with the mucification of vaginal epithelium, which may increase the susceptibility to Ct vaginal infection in mice. In contrast, CNE has no obvious effect on the estrous cycle and susceptibility to Ct vaginal infection despite of the appearance of pathological changes in the uterus.

BACKGROUND:Our previous study has already manifested that Chinese medicine Xiaokening can effectively prevent and treat the early diabetic nephropathy. OBJECTIVE:To compare the effect of rhein and archen on the apoptosis of mesangial cells of rats cultured with high glucose. METHODS:Mesangial cells were stimulated by different concentrations of rhein and archen (20, 40 and 80 μmol/L). Morphology of apoptotic cells was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. Karyon apoptosis was examined by fluorescence staining of DAPI. cellapoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The outcome of hematoxylin-eosin staining and DAPI staining indicated that the effect of rhein was much stronger than that of archen on the apoptosis of mesangial cells in the rats cultured with high glucose. Comparison of the apoptosis rate also indicated that the rhein had a stronger effect on the earlier and the later stage apoptotic rate of mesangial cells than archen. Both rhein and archen with different concentrations can induce apoptosis of mesangial cells, but the effect of rhein is much stronger.

Purpose To study clinicopathologic feature of prostate cancer by complete embedding of radical prostatectomy specimen. Methods 108 cases of radical prostatectomy by systematic whole organ embedding were reviewed. Results The patient age ranged from 55 to 80 years ( mean 68. 1 years) . The preoperative average PSA value was 18. 3μg/ml. 59 cases ( accounting for 54. 6% of all prostatectomy cases) were in pT2 stage, while 23. 7% (14/59) in pT2a stage, 8. 5% (5/59) in pT2b, and 67. 8% (40/59) in pT2c. 49 cases (45. 4%)in pT3 stage, while 59. 2% (29/49) in pT3a, 40. 8% (20/49) in pT3b. 3. 6%(3/84)cases presented pelvic lymph node metastasis. 8. 3% (9/108) cases were graded as Gleason Score 6 or less, 61. 1% Gleason Score 7, 30. 6%(33/108)Gleason Score 8 or more. Gleason Pattern 5 component was found in 26. 9% (29/108) cases. Positive margin was observed in 25. 9% (28/108) cases, with 75% (21/28) in pT3 stage and 53. 6% (15/28) having Gleason Pattern 5. Patient in pT2 stage pres-ented mean PSA value of 14. 00 μg/ml, involved in no more than 2 biopsy cores in 68. 5% cases, and more than 5 cores in 4. 3%, while in pT3 stage, presented mean PSA value of 23. 82μg/ml, involved in no more than 2 cores in 19. 6%, and more than 5 cores in 28. 3%. The difference of involved core number was significant in pT2 and pT3 tumors ( P<0. 01 ) . 81. 3% cases graded Gleason Score 6 in biopsy was assigned to Gleason Score 7 or more in prostatectomy. Conclusions Completely sampling radical prostatectomy specimen should be recommended for accurate staging and margin status. Preoperative PSA value, Gleason Score of biopsy, involved core number by cancer is a still helpful parameter for clinical staging and risk estimate.

Objective: To clone the Fab gene of a monoclonal antibody (mAb) BDI against human bladder cancer and its expression in E. coli. Methods: Fd and K genes of mAb BDI were cloned by RT-PCR and inserted into an Fab expression vector. Phage displaying Fab and soluble Fab were expressed in E. coli. The N-terminal sequence of VH region was corrected by PCR mediated mutagenesis. The antigen-binding characteristics of the Fab were tested by ELISA and immu-nohistochemistry. Results: Fd and K genes were cloned into the expressing vector p3MH and the phage displaying antibody and soluble Fab were expressed in E. coli, which showed weak binding activity to bladder cancer cells. Correction of the N-terminal sequence of the VHimproved the biding activity dramatically. The feasibility of the application of the Fab in phage antibody library screening was confirmed by a simulated panning procedure. Conclusion: The Fab gene of an anti-human bladder cancer mAb was expressed in E. coli. The importance of the N-terminal sequence on antibody binding activity was suggested.

Purpose To study the prevalence and feature of EGR gene rearrangement in prostatic carcinoma. Methods 242 consecu-tive core biopsies of prostatic carcinoma were evaluated. All biopsy specimens contained 6-14 cores from left and right sides separately delivered. The patient age ranged 58 to 91 years, and PSA value 5 ng/ml to more than 5 000 ng/ml. Immunohistochemistry ( IHC) for ERG protein overexpression and fluorescent in situ hybridization ( FISH) for ERG gene rearrangement were performed. Results 42 cases were detected positive for ERG by IHC ( positive rate 17. 4%) , and positive for ERG rearrangement by FISH either, with 19 ca-ses showing fusion through deletion and 23 through insertion, while no negative cases by IHC demonstrated positive by FISH. 5 cases revealed positive and negative staining in different carcinoma foci of ERG. No ERG positive staining and rearrangement were found in adjacent benign glands. Of positive cases, 12 cases were graded as Gleason score 6, 23 Gleason score 7, and 7 Gleason score 8 or more. Positive rate was 19. 6% in the group of PSA value less than 100 ng/ml, and 10% of more than 100 ng/ml, whereas 17. 2% in the group of clinical T3 stage or less, and 19% of clinical T4 and lymph node or remote metastasis. ERG rearrangement was associated with lower Gleason score, but not with PSA value, clinical stage and progression using theχ2 test analysis. Conclusions IHC is relia-ble for detection ERG rearrangement and helpful for interpretation of prostatic carcinoma. Multiple foci are common in prostatic carcino-ma. There is no significance between ERG rearrangement and disease prognosis.

Objective To study the correlation between amino terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor(NT-proBNP) and risk factors of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with elder patients.Methods One hundred and twenty-eight ACS patients were divided into unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group with 52 samples,ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group with 35 samples and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) group with 41 samples.Meanwhile 45 healthy elder people were adopted as control group.Firstly,the subjects of blood pressure,body mass index (BMI) and smoking numbers were measured.Secondly,venous blood was collected to assay NT-proBNP,cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTn Ⅰ),homocysteine (Hcy),blood-lipoids and C-reactive protein(CRP).Lastly,ultrasonic cardiogram was used to test left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).In addition,correlation analysis was researched between NT-proBNP and other factors.Results NT-proBNP levels of UAP,STEMI and NSTEMI groups were significantly higher than the control group ((794.18±182.64) ng/L,(872.43±245.67) ng/L,(557.25±163.81) ng/L) and (125.84±59.27) ng/L,P ＜ 0.05).NT-proBNP was positive correlation with systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,Hcy and CRP (r=0.182,0.176,0.281,0.191;P=0.040,0.043,0.001,0.031),however negative with LVEF(r=-0.247,P =0.005).Conclusion NT-proBNP level is sensitive to monitor ACS variety,and it is significant to test NT-proBNP combining Hcy,CRP,and cTn Ⅰ for diagnosing and treating ACS.
