This article was aimed to study the acute toxicities on intragastric administration of differentRadix Aconiti Lateralis Praeparataprocessed products to Beagle dogs. A total of 16 healthy and qualified Beagle dogs were randomly divided into the blank group,Pao-Fu-Pian(PFP) group,Pao-Tian-Xiong(PTX) group andHei-Shun-Pian(HSP) group according to the body weight. The intragastric administration of 4 g crude herb per kg was given. Before medication, 1 h, 24 h, and 3, 7, 14 days after medication, the body weight, food consumption, rectal temperature, electrocardiogram, blood routine and blood biochemistry were measured. The results showed that after medication, all dogs in three experimental groups were depressed. And there were significant differences in the electrolytes of blood. Among them, the HSP group was the most obvious one. The red blood cells, blood sugar and triglycerides of dogs in the PFP group had significant difference. The lymphocytes and blood sugar had significant difference of dogs in the PTX group. However, after the medication of HSP, the lymphocytes of the dogs were decreased significantly. It was concluded that the toxicity of three processed products followed the order of HSP > PFP > PTX.

Objective:To investigate the work-family conflict, work withdrawal behavior and psychological resilience of postpartum female nurses with the second-child, analyze the relationships between them, further analyze whether there is a mediating role of psychological resilience between work-family conflict and work withdrawal behavior.Methods:A total of 303 postpartum female nurses with the second-child were assessed with general information questionnaire, Work-Family Conflict Scale(WFC), Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC) and Work Withdrawal Behavior Scale(WWBS).Results:The total score of WFC was 53.22±13.63, and the highest score in the factor of time while lowest in the factor of behavior with 18.92±5.00,16.92±6.07. The total score of WWBS was 18.79±4.26, and the score of dimension of psychological withdrawal and behavioral withdrawal was 13.99±3.53, 4.80±1.22. The total score of CD-RISC was 88.81±16.45. The total scores and scores of each dimension of WFC were positively correlated with those of WWBS( r values were 0.122-0.396, P<0.05 or 0.01). The total scores and scores of each dimension of CD-RISC were negatively correlated with those of WWBS and WFC( r values were -0.320--0.094, P<0.05 or 0.01). Structural equation modeling analysis showed that work-family conflict indirectly affected work withdrawal behavior through psychological resilience. Conclusions:Cultivating psychological resilience shows a positive effect on easing the work-family conflict and improving work withdrawal behavior for postpartum female nurses with the second-child.
