Objective: To examine the reliability and validity of self-report scale of brief psychopathological symptoms(SBPS). Methods: The reliability and validity of the scale were tested based on three groups of subjects, including the cases involved forensic problems, the patients with mental disorders and normal persons. Some of them were retested 5-15 days after first examination. Other subjects of them finished MMPI at the same time. Results: ①The Cronbach's ? coefficients of SBPS was 0.91. The split-half reliability was 0.90. The test-retest reliability ranged from 0.73～0.98. ②The correlations between factors scores and the total scores ranged from 0.79 to 0.87. The correlations among the four factors scores, ranged from 0.50 to 0.65. Significant correlation was found between the total scores of SBPS and the fake scores of MMPI (r =0.76). Based on the experts diagnosis, the accuracy rate of SBPS for evaluating malingering was 86.6%. Conclusion: The SBPS has acceptable psychometrics properties on reliability and validity.

Objective:To analyse the methord and effects of intermaxillary traction(IMT)screws used in the treatment of jaw frac-ture.Methods:In the treatment of 1 68 cases of jaw fracture IMT screws were used for the restoration of normal and stable occlusion. The screw number,position,traction effect and postoperative complications of the treatment were analysed.Results:705 screws were used in 168 patients,4 screws were used in each of 147 cased (88%),6 in 12(7%),5 in 9(5%).336(47.7%)screws were fixed between the roots of first and second premolar,292(41 .4%)between the roots of canine and first premolar,50 (7.1%)be-tween the roots of second premolar and first molar,27(3.8%)between the other tooth roots.Normal postoperative occlusion relation was achived by the use of screws in 92 cases without traction.Occlusion disharmony or deviation was found in 76 cases by the used of screws and was restored to normlal by 1 4-day traction in 71 cases.The total efficiency of the treatment was 97%.Pain of the mucosa surrounding the screws was observed in 23 cases (1 3.7%).Root damage,traction screw loosening and adjacent tooth dislocation were observed in 1 3(1 .8%),1 1 (1 .6%)and 2(0.3%)cases respectively.Conclusion:For the fixation of IMT screws,the posi-tions between tooth root from canine to first molar were most common and safe.The fixation point should be in 5 ~8mm below the gin-gival margin.Use of 4-6 screws can meet treatment need.

Conclusion SSFD-MD has acceptable psychometrics properties on reliability and validity.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of the new investigational drug pegylated interferon α-2b (Peg-IFN-α-2b) (Y shape, 40 kD) injection (180 µg/week) combined with ribavirin in the treatment of patients with genotype 1/6 chronic hepatitis C (CHC), with standard-dose Peg-IFN-α-2a combined with ribavirin as a positive control. Methods: A multicenter, randomized, open-label, and positive-controlled phase III clinical trial was performed. Eligible patients with genotype 1/6 CHC were screened out and randomly divided into Peg-IFN-α-2b(Y shape, 40kD) group and Peg-IFN-α-2a group at a ratio of 2:1. The patients in both groups were given oral ribavirin for 48 weeks in addition and then followed up for 24 weeks after drug withdrawal. Abbott Real Time HCV Genotype II was used to determine HCV genotype, and Cobas TaqMan quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure HCV RNA level at 0, 4, 12, 24, 48, and 72 weeks. Adverse events were recorded in detail. The primary efficacy endpoint was sustained virological response (SVR), and a non-inferiority test was also performed. Results: A total of 561 patients with genotype 1/6 CHC were enrolled, among whom 529 received treatment; 90.9% of these patients had genotype 1 CHC. The data of the full analysis set showed that SVR rate was 69.80% (95% CI 65.00%-74.60%) in the trial group and 74.16% (95% CI 67.73%-80.59%) in the control group (P = 0.297 0). The data of the per protocol set (PPS) showed that SVR rate was 80.63% (95% CI 76.04%-85.23%) in the trial group and 81.33% (95% CI 75.10%-87.57%) in the control group (P = 0.849 8), and the 95% CI of rate difference conformed to the non-inferiority standard. The analysis of the PPS population showed that of all subjects, 47.9% achieved rapid virologic response, with a positive predictive value of 93.8%. The incidence rate of adverse events was 96.30% in the trial group and 94.94% in the control group, and the incidence rate of serious adverse events was 5.13% in the trail group and 5.06% in the control group. Conclusion In the regimen of Peg-IFN-α combined with ribavirin for the treatment of genotype 1/6 CHC, the new investigational drug Peg-IFN-α-2b(Y shape, 40 kD) has comparable clinical effect and safety to the control drug Peg-IFN-α-2a.
