Objective To reveal the hepatitis A vaccine (HepA) coverage among pre-school children in Shandong province before Hepatitis A vaccine was introduced to the EPI and to provide evidence for improving the strategy for hepatitis A control.Methods A cross-section survey was conducted among children aged between 2 and 6 years old in Shandong province in March 2008.The study population was selected by random sampling method and HepA immunization history was obtained by immunization record or recall.Results 78.90% had received one dose of HepA at least.The coverage rate decreased with age and the differences in three age groups were statistically significant (x 2 =11.54,P=0.02).The coverage rates among the boys and girls were 77.67% and 80.30% respectively,the difference was not significantly(x 2 =1.17,P=0.28).The HepA coverage rates among the children living in the eastern areas and in the richer areas were higher than the centrale and western areas and poverty areas,the difference has statistic significance (x 2 =27.25,58.17,P

Objective To investigate the value of improving the prediction accuracy of near-term risk for developing breast cancer by transforming the original mammography image and fusing the different types of image features using the algorithm of machine learning.Methods The craniocaudal (CC) full-field digital mammography (FFDM) of 185 women were downloaded from the clinical database at the university of Pittsburgh medical center.Firstly,the original gray images were segmented and transformed into virtual optical density images.Then the asymmetry features were separately extracted from original gray images and virtual optical density images.Two decision tree classifiers of the first stage were trained based on the features extracted from two types of image.And the scores output from the two classifiers were used as input to train the second stage of one decision tree classifier.Leave-one-case-out method was used to validate the prediction performance of near-term risk of breast cancer.Results Using two-stage decision tree fusion method to predict breast cancer,the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.9612±0.0132.And the sensitivity,specificity and prediction accuracy were 96.63％(86/89),91.67％(88/96) and 94.05％(174/185).Conclusion The features extracted from virtual optical density image have higher discriminatory power of predicting breast cancer.Fusing the two kinds of image features twice by two-stage decision tree method can help to improve the prediction accuracy of near-term risk of breast cancer.

The article analyzes the problems of nurse-patient communication in nurse interns,and proposes the strategies of cultivating nurse-patient communication ability to reduce nurse-patient disputes and improve the overall quality of nursing students.

Objective To probe the effect of nursing interventions on depression of patients with acute stroke.Methods 72 cases of stroke patients with depression screened by Hamilton depression scale (HAMD)were divided into the intervention group and the control group with 36 cases in each group.The control group received routine treatment.The intervention group wag given nursing intervention based on routine treatment.The effect was assessed before and after 3,6 and 12 months of intervention with Zung self-rating depression scale(SDS)and improved Rankin scale(MRS). Results The value of SDS after 3,6 or 12 months was significantly lower than that of the control group(P＜0.05),and the value of MRS was significantly higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Nursing intervention can reduce depression in patients with post-stroke depression.

Objective To explore the effects of vitrectomy on neovascular glaucoma combined with vitreous hemorrhage. Methods Seven eyes of 7 patients with neovascular glaucoma combined with vitreous hemorrhage underwent vitrectomy combined with phacoemulsification, panretinal photocoagulation, and trabeculectomy. The preoperative visual acuity ranged from light perception to 0.2, and the mean preoperative intraocular pressure was 54 mm Hg (38-64 mm Hg)(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa). The mean follow-up was 8 months (6-15 months). Results The postoperative visual acuity ranged from light perception to 0.4, and the mean postoperative intraocular pressure was 17 mm Hg (10-30 mm Hg) which was significantly lower than preoperative one ( P

Objective To investigate the role of NFIC on the stimulation effects of cAMP-induced differentiation of stem cells from the apical papilla ( SCAPs) in vitro. Methods SCAPs isolated from dental papilla of human imma-ture third molars were cultured by enzyme digestion. SCAPs were transfected with lentivirus that overexpressed NF-IC gene ( ov-NFIC) or an empty vector ( LV-empty) and co-treatment with Forskolin. Mineralized nodule formation of each group was measured by alizarin red staining. Quantitative real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction was performed to test the expressions of RUNX2,ALP,OCN mRNA. Results Forskolin increased the ex-pression of Runx2, ALP, OCN mRNA as well as matrix mineralization in SCAPs, and the stimulation effects of For-skolin were enhanced by overexpressing NFIC gene. Conclusion The results indicate that NFIC can promote cAMP-induced differentiation of SCAPs.

Objectives To determine the significance of serum total bile acid (TBA) in the diagnosis and treatment of infantile hepatitis syndrome. Methods Serum TBA and other liver function related items were determined with automatic enzymatic assay techniques in 67 with infantile hepatitis syndrome patients (age 26 days～7 months) and 100 normal infants (age 20 days～1 year). Results In the control group, the serum TAB level was 0～11.3 ?mol/L. TBA level was abnormal in 89.5% patients and the values were 0.5～226.0 ?mol/L ?s =(79 5?54.3) ?mol/L]. The difference was significant between the two groups. The TBA levels were well related to those of ALP, DBIL and ? GT and TBA was better than others in sensitivity and specificity. . The difference was significant between the two groups. The TBA levels were well related to those of ALP, DBIL and ? GT and TBA was better than others in sensitivity and specificity. Conclusion Serum TBA level is important in evaluating the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of infantile hepatitis syndrome.

Objective To study the characteristics of calcific valvular heart disease (CVHD) with the aid of echocardiography. Methods Nine thousand and seventeen patients over 50 year-old who had received transthoracic echocardiographic examination were enrolled in the study. Diagnosis of CVHD was made with 2 dimension, M-mode and color Doppler echocardiography. General state of health, clinical manifestation and history of CVHD patients were also analyzed. Results Five hundred and seventy-four cases of CVHD were diagnosed and the characteristics of CVHD were observed. The diagnostic rate increased as the age increased. There was no significant difference between male and female. The calcified regions were commoner in aortic valves than in mitral valves, more frequent in non-coronary valves than in right or left coronary valves, and more frequently seen at tips of aortic valves and annuli of mitral valves than in other parts. The size of calcific plaques was usually between 3 and 10mm. Hemodynamic changes could be found in some patients. History of hypertension, coronary artery disease, and arteriosclerosis of the aorta were often found in these patients. Conclusions Echocardiography can be used to evaluate the position of calcification, size of calcification area, and degree of valvular stenosis or insufficiency, thus offers useful information for early diagnosis and treatment, and prognosis of CVHD in clinic.
