ObjectiveTo explore the personality traits of Han Chinese women with recurrent depression.MethodsAssessed by the Big Five Inventory (BFI),a comparison research was conducted between 118 Han Chinese women with recurrent depression and 65 sex,race and culture background matched health controls.Results Han Chinese women with recurrent depression scored lower in extraversion,conscientiousness and openness ( 17.93± 5.43,30.24 ± 5.94,30.03 ± 7.33 ) than matched controls ( 20.72 ± 3.79,31.94 ± 3.84,32.75 ± 5.32 ),while scored higher in neuroticism (21.38 ± 3.91) than the later one ( 27.57 ± 6.19 ).A binary logistic regression model,with group (case vs.control) as dependent variable and extroversion,conscientiousness,openness and neuroticism as independent variables,was built to assess each personality dimension's independent impact on recurrent depression.It came out to be that only extraversion ( OR =0.881,95％ CI =0.083-0.966,P=0.007) and neuroticism ( OR =1.225,95％ CI =1.134-1.323,P ＜ 0.01 ) were statistically significantly associated with recurrent depression ( P＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionIn the big five personality model,extraversion and neuroticism might act as independent personality traits to impact Han Chinese women with recurrent depression in a positive and negative way respectively.

Objective To retrospectively study postoperative nonunion of femoral neck fractures so as to identify high risk factors for their nonunion.Methods A total of 965 patients with complete clinical data out of the 1 323 patients with femoral neck fractures treated by internal fixation with cannulated compression screws from January 2003 to January 2011 were included in the study.Logistic muhiple regression method was used to analyze five factors including patients' age,gender,injury mechanism (whether high energy injury or not),fracture type (with or without displacement) and medical comorbidities [American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Score (ASAS) grade] and their correlation with fracture healing to investigate the high risk factors for the nonunion of femoral neck fractures.Results Quantitative assay of the factors affecting healing of femoral neck fractures was ranged as follows:medical comorbidities (ASAS grade),injury mechanism (whether high energy injury or not),fracturc type (with or without displacement),gender and age.Conclusion Age ＞ 50 years,females,displacement fracture,high energy injury,and ASAS grade above Ⅲ are high risk factors for nonunion of femoral neck fractures.

Objective To explore the risk factors of antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas or attempted suicide among patients with bipolar depression. Methods Out of 623 patients with bipolar disorder visiting between June 2006 and June 2009,68 who was initially diagnosed as unipolar disorder and treated with antidepressants were retrospectively surveyed. Suicide and activation symptoms during the process of antidepressant treatment were estimated based on the cases record and semi-structural interviews. Unconditional bivariate logistic regression was conducted to analyze the potential risk factors. Results Of 68 patients,7 ( 10. 3% ) experienced antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas and 4 ( 5.9% ) attempted suicide after 2 to 63 ( 17.45 ± 5.90 )days following the treatment. The antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas or attempted suicide were related to the suicidal level before treatment (P= 0. 012, OR = 2. 072 ) and the combined use of benzodiazepine (P =0. 043, OR = 0.236). Clinical subtypes, gender, age, symptoms feature, types of antidepressant and antidepressanttreatment emergent activation symptoms had little impact on the antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas orattempted suicide (P ＞ 0.05 ). Conclusion The antidepressant treatment emergent suicidal ideas or attempted suicide among patients with bipolar depression are positively related to the suicidal level before treatment while negatively associated with the combined use of benzodiazepine.

Purpose To evaluate the CT features and pathological manifestations of the solid components of mixture ground-glass opacity (GGO) in adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinom (MIA) and invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC), to analyze the qualitative diagnosis value of solid components of mixture GGO in the diagnosis of AIS, MIA and IAC, to provide reference for the selection of clinical treatment.Materials and Methods Eighteen patients with AIS, 53 patients with MIA and 28 patients with IAC (the maximum diameter smaller than 2 cm) proved by surgery and pathology with CT features appearing as mixture GGO were retrospectively analyzed, CT features of the solid components in three groups were analyzed and compared with pathology.Results The solid components in AIS mainly appeared as punctiform or polygon, with extensive distribution, solid nodules were usually single (17 cases, 94.44%), located in the middle of the lesion (14 cases, 77.78%), with clear binderies (16 cases, 88.89%) and the same density with vessels in the same axis (13 cases, 72.22%); the majority of solid components in MIA appeared as circular or elliptical (33 cases, 62.26%), less than or equal to 5 mm (48 cases, 90.57%), with eccentric or multi-point distribution (45 cases, 84.90%), the boundaries were less sharp (40 cases, 75.47%), with slightly lower density than that of the vasculars in the same level (34 cases, 64.15%); the solid components in IAC mainly appeared as irregular lesions (21 cases, 75.00%), lager than 5 mm (24 cases, 85.71%), with eccentric growth (20 cases, 71.43%) and less sharp boundary (15 cases, 53.57%), the integration of multiple nodules could also be observed. There were statistically significant differences in the CT features of solid components within the lesions among the three groups (P<0.01).Conclusion It is possible to predict the pathological typing and the prognosis of pulmonary mixture GGO in a certain extent according to the different CT features of the solid components in it, and to guide clinical treatment principles.

Objective To introduce the application and assess the outcome of ProPlan CMF software in virtual surgery of mandibular resection and reconstruction with vascularized fibular graft.Methods Nineteen patients were performed mandibular resection,and immediate reconstruction with free fibular graft by application of ProPlan CMF software between March 1,2013 and January 31,2014,including 7 cases of osteoradionecrosis,6 cases of adamantoblastoma,4 cases of carcinoma of gingiva,2 cases of intra-osseous carcinoma of mandible.There were 12 males and 7 females,with an age range of 21-73 years (median,54 years).In each case,three-dimensional spiral CT scan of mandible and fibula was obtained before operation.The CT data were imported into the ProPlan CMF software and the virtual surgical planning was performed.After that,the mandibular rapid prototyping and surgical guide plates were made according to customized design.The segmental resection of mandible,titanium plate bending,fibular molding,insetting and fixing were then carried out by using these surgical guide plates.Results Operations were undertaken successfully according to preoperative design in all nineteen patients and negative margin was detected by intraoperative frozen section.The fibula was cut,shaped and fixed accurately.The operations took 4.5-7.0 hours (mean,5.5 hours).Primary healing of incision was obtained without complications except fistula in 2 cases of osteoradionecrosis,which were resolved with local wound care after 4 weeks.19 patients were followed up between 3 months to 1 year and all patients were alive with disease free.All patients were satisfactory with their maxillofacial appearance,occlusion and function.The ranges of mouth opening was 2.0-4.0 cm.The postoperative panoramic radiographs or CT scan showed perfect situation and contour of fibular graft.Healing of the donor site occurred without significant complications.All patients started early postoperative ambulation,and walked normally after 2 or 3 months.Conclusion The application of ProPlan CMF software in virtual surgical design and guide plates creation can simplify the operation,and improve the accuracy of mandibular resection and reconstruction,especially the spatial relationship of the mandible and the fibula graft.It is worth promotion widely in clinical practice.

Objective To assess the value of MSCT in the follow-up of patients with small hepatocelluar carcinoma(sHCC) treated with RFA. Methods Twenty-eight patients with sHCC underwent MSCT scanning 1, 3 and 6 months after RFA. Results One month after RFA, 25 tumors were completely necrotized, among which 19 presented no enhancement on dual-phase contrast CT scans and 6 showed thin ring-shaped enhancement on artery-phase contrast. Three cases with residual tumor manifested as nodular enhancement in margin of lesion. Three and 6 months after RFA, all 25 tumors, which were completely necrotized, became small and presented no enhancement. New tumors were found in the liver in 2 cases six months after RFA. Conclusion RFA is an effective therapeutic method for sHCC, and MSCT dual-phase enhanced scanning is a good way for evaluating the curative effect and follow-up.

Objective: In order to observe the kinds and intensity of the working noise of Yansan Petrochemical Co. and the effects caused by the working noise on the workers＇ vestibular and auditory function. Method :The intensity and frequency of the working noise were recorded by exactolnoisemeter in the workshop. One hundred and seventeen workers were tested in routine pure-tone tested method. The SPVN and ABR were tested within fifty-one workers of all. Result:The working noise of Yansan Petrochemical Co. belongs to the broad band and steady noise. The intensity of the working noise were during 85.7～104.0 dB (A) and the main frequency were during 1～8 kHz. About 59 percent workers who exposed to the working noise had hearing loss. The most hearing-loss were in the high frequency. The hearing-loss of speech frequency were slight. Workers who have more six years standing have obviously increased hearing-loss than the workers who have less five years standing. There were significant differences the ABR thresholds and wave-interval between the tested and controlled groups. The SPVN and CP were abnormal in more than 17.4 percent workers with hearing loss. Conclusion: The working noise of Yansan Petrochemical Co. belongs to the broad band and steady noise. Working noise can lead to workers＇ hearing loss of certain degrees who exposed in the noise for a long time. Obvious correlation was not defined between the hearing-loss and the abnormal vestibular response group.

Objective To explore the expression and clinical relevance of metastasis-associated colon cancer-1 (MACC1) and C-MET proteins in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue.Methods The expressions of MACC1 and C-MET were detected in 51 specimens of HCC and paraneoplastic liver tissue,normal liver tissue in 13 healthy cases using immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.The correlations of the expressions of MACC1 and C-MET proteins were evaluated,survival rates were observed,the relationship between the expression of MACC1,C-MET proteins and the clinicopathologic features of HCC were analyzed.Results The positive rate of MACC1 and C-MET proteins was 80.4％ and 76.5％ in HCC tissue,the relative expressions were 0.645 ± 0.047 and 0.504 ± 0.023 respectively,which was significantly different from those in paraneoplastic liver tissue and normal liver tissue (respectively F =173.308,252.817,all P =0.000).The survival analysis showed that the three-year survival rate in patients with positive MACC1 and C-MET expressions was significantly lower than that in patients with negative expressions (respectively x2 =3.934,4.439,all P ＜ 0.05),the positive rate and relative expressions of MACC1 and C-MET were significantly correlated with TNM stage,portal vein cancer thrombus and pathology typing (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The expression of MACC1 and C-MET is associated with the malignant progression of HCC.MACC1 may serve as a independent prognostic factor for advanced HCC and a possible therapy target for the treatment of HCC.
