Objective:To evaluate the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire 6.0 (EDE-Q 6.0) in female patients with eating disorders.Methods:A total of 239 patients with eating disorder and 142 healthy controls who were recruited consented to participate in the study and completed Chinese EDE-Q 6.0.Confirmatory factor analysis was used in patients to compare the original 4-factor model,1-factor model and 3-factor model.The criterion validity was tested with the Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI).Mann-Whitney U analysis was used to compare the differences of EDE-Q 6.0 scores on the two samples to test the empirical validity,and ROC analysis was used to determine the cut-off value.The internal consistency of the scale was tested in two samples.Among all participants,89 patients and 31 healthy controls were retested 1 month later.Results:The original 4-factor model fit better than the other two.The EDE-Q 6.0 total score and the EDI total score had a high consistency in the total sample,patients and controls,respectively (ICC =0.88,0.87,0.73).Patients had higher scores on the EDE-Q 6.0 than controls (Ps ＜0.01).The mean area under the curve (AUC) of EDE-Q 6.0 was 0.91,the optimal cut-off point of EDE-Q 6.0 was total score ≥ 1.27,sensitivity and specificity were 79.4％ and 88.2％ respectively.The Cronbach α coefficients were 0.95,0.91,and 0.88 for the total sample,patients and controls respectively.The test-retest reliabilities were 0.73 for the total scale,0.58,0.68,0.69 and 0.71 for the 4 factors.Conclusion:The Chinese version of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire 6.0 have good psychometric properties and diagnosis accuracy,and it could be used to assess the severity of clinical symptoms.

Objective To evaluate the profile of proliferating T cells and dendritic cells ( DCs ) in the skin infiltrates of patients with mycosis fungoides ( MF) in different stages. Method Paraffin section and immunohistochemisty with monoclonal antibody were used to detect the expression of special antigen per section. Results The numbers of Ki-67+ cells and cutaneous lymphocyte-associated antigen ( CLA+) cells both increased significantly in the skin infiltrates of MF. Most Ki-67+ cells expressed both CLA and CD4 antigen. The number of Ki-67+ cells was significantly higher ( P

OBJECTIVETo analyze the prognostic factors in patients after surgical resection of a huge primary liver cancer (HPLC).

METHODSClinical and follow-up data of 69 cases of huge HPLC treated in our hospital from July 2001 to July 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Sixteen clinicopathologic factors possibly influencing the survival were selected, and multivariate analysis of these parameters was performed using the Cox proportional hazards model.

RESULTSThe cumulative 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates of 58 patients were 58.2%, 31.4% and 12.3%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that radical resection, intrahepatic metastasis, vascular invasion and degree of hepatic cirrhosis significantly affect the postoperative survival. The Cox multivariate analysis indicated that radical resection, intrahepatic metastasis and degree of hepatic cirrhosis are independent prognostic factors.

CONCLUSIONSSurgical resection is a major and active treatment for huge HPLC. The therapeutic efficacy depends on intrahepatic metastasis, degree of hepatic cirrhosis and radical resection. Aggressive treatment and prevention on postoperative intrahepatic recurrence and metastasis is an important strategy to improve the survival of patients with huge HPLC.

A hybridoma cell line 1G4A7 secreting monoclonal antibody (McAb) specific to hemagglutinin of avian paramyxovirus type 2 (APMV-2) was developed by fusing the spleen cells of APMV-2 immunized BAlb/c mice with SP2/0 myeloma cells. The immunoglobulin subclass of 1G4A7 was IgG1 with light chain kappa and the affinity constant against APMV-2 was 1.02 X 10(10). Identified by HI and indirect ELISA, the McAb titers in ascities were 10 log 2 and 1 : 10(6) respectively. The McAb did not cross react with the common avian viruses, showing good specificity. There existed obvious differences in antigenitic relationship among APMV-2 viruses analyzed by HI and indirect ELISA using McAb 1G4A7.
