Objective:To evaluate the impact of health education intervention on promoting rural residents to join new rural cooperative medical system(NCMS)and their intention of joining NCMS based on Health Belief Model in project areas in Henan and Jilin Provinces.Methods:Quasi-experiment study was used to evaluate intervention impact.Following the evidence-based approach,according to needs assessment,a half-year health education intervention was implemented among farmers in the experimental counties in Henan and Jilin Provinces respectively.A questionnaire survey was conducted among farmers in intervention and control counties before and after intervention,and intervention impact was evaluated by comparing the indicators' changes in intervention and control counties.Results:After health education intervention,the knowledge level of farmers in two intervention counties increased by 29.0% and 37.8% respectively,their scores of perceived threatens of health risk and perceived barriers of joining NCMS among the respondents were decreased.Meanwhile,their score of perceived benefit of joining NCMS were increased,and the rate of willingness to join NCMS increased remarkably in both intervention counties.Conclusion:Health education was effective and helpful in increasing farmer's knowledge,understanding and cognitive level of NCMS,and it should play an important role for the sustainable development of NCMS.

Objective: To study caspase-3 activities and the neuroprotective effect of caspase-3 inhibitor Ac-DEVD-CMK in primary cultures of rat hippocampal neurons during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). Methods: After pretreated with Ac-DEVD-CMK or the vector DMSO fo 1 h, primary cultures of rat hippocampal neurons were induced to hypoxia for 3 h, followed by 12 to 48 h of reoxygenation. The neuronal viability was estimated by MTT assay, and caspase-3 cellular activities were measured by a colorimetric method using Ac-DEVD-pNA as a substrate. Results: During H/R, the cultured rat hippocampal neuronal viability gradually decreased, and caspase-3 activities in the primary cultures of rat hippocampal neurons were significantly increased, and peaked at 24 h of reoxygenation. Caspase-3 activities were decreased in the neurons pretreated with Ac-DEVD-CMK in a dose dependent manner. Conclusion: Delayed neuronal death is detected in cultured hippocampal neurons during H/R, and apoptosis mediated by caspase-3 may play an important role in it, and caspase-3 inhibitor has a neuroprotective effect on them.

Objective To investigate association of the DTNBP1 gene polymorphisms with paranoid schizophrenia in Chinese Han populations by a two-stage study.Methods In the discovery stage, 11 SNPs in DTNBP1 were tested in 532 patients with paranoid schizophrenia and 488 controls by Sanger sequencing.In the validation sample (1 111 cases and 1 435 controls), Taqman genotyping method was used to genotype SNP rs4715986.Results In the discovery stage, SNP rs4715986 showed disease association (χ2=11.02, P<0.01) with paranoid schizophrenia for analysis of 532 patients and 488 controls;such an association survived a correction with 10 000 permutations (corrected P<0.05).In the validation sample (1 111 cases and 1 435 controls), we confirmed the genotypic association (χ2=9.292, P=0.01) of rs4715986 with paranoid schizophrenia.Conclusions The present results suggest that the DTNBP1 gene may be mainly involved in the development of paranoid schizophrenia in the Chinese Han population.

Objective To study the effects of Danshen Shujingwan on cervical cord compression in rats. Methods 60 healthy male SD rats of 8 weeks old were randomly divided into 6 groups: sham group (N group), model group (M group), DSW groups of high, medium and low dosages, and group treated with Jingfukang (J group), with 10 rats in each. The cervical cord compression models were established by transplanted silica gel. From 7 d after model establishments, the rats were respectively treated with drug by gavage for 30 d. They were observed pathologically. Results The extent and scope of damage were less in the treatment groups than in the model group (P<0.001), while the number of normal neurons remained more in the treatment groups (P<0.01).Conclusion DSW can decrease the damage after cervical spinal cord compression, protect the neurons from injuring.
