Objectives:To understand the human resources and costs of essential public health services based on community health service centers in Beijing’s rural areas and to offer policy recommendations for advancing the progress of essential public health services. Methods:With the self-designed questionnaire, the paper collected data from the districts of Changping, Tongzhou, Huairou and Miyun. By cluster random sampling, 12 community health service centers and 108 personnel were surveyed based on the level of economic development. Results: The number of young women, preventive personnel and staff with low ranking positions represents a significant share of all essen-tial public health service providers. Beijing’s rural areas deploy a great deal of human resources for vaccination and health education with little set aside for women’s health and reproductive health. The unit cost of setting special col-umns for health education and field disease treatment is higher than other service items. The suburbs deploy a great deal of human resources for service items than the outskirts while the unit costs are lower. Conclusions: Human re-source for essential public health services in Beijing’s rural areas should be strengthened. The costs of service items differ greatly so that policy adjustments and finances should be implemented based on actual demand and resources.

A comparison was made for the correlation and application scope of the statistical methods commonly used by hospitals for their efficiency measurement.Hospital data processed with PCA (principal component analysis)for dimension reduction were used in a correlation analysis for the results of ratio analysis (RA),stochastic frontier analysis(SFA)and data envelopment analysis(DEA).The authors hold that the RA can expediently display the order of hospital efficiency,the SFA demands a stricter premise yet presents more stable results,while the DEA boasts greater relative advantages and thus suitable for processing hospital efficiency measurement tasks of multi-input and multi-output indexes.

Objective To observe the inhibitory effects of local co-transfection of tissue-type plasminogen activator(tPA) gene and proliferating cell nuclear antigen antisense oligodeoxynucleotides(PCNA-ASODN) on the intima proliferation and restenosis of autograft artery in rabbits. Methods One hundred and twenty male Zelanian rabbits were randomly divided into four groups(n=30, in each group): control group, PCNA-ASODN group, tPA group and tPA+PCNA-ASODN group. The left and right external iliac arteries (length 1.0 cm) were transplanted reciprocally. The transplanted arteries were respectively soaked in lipofection, PCNA-ASODN, pBudCE4.1/tPA and pBudCE4.1/tPA+PCNA-ASODN solution about 15 minutes. The transplanted arteries were sutured with 9-0 sutures soaked in PCNA-ASODN and pBudCE4.1/tPA solution. Each group were divided into five subgroups(n=6, in each subgroup) according to the sacrifice time (3 d, 7 d, 14 d, 28 d and 56 d after operation). On every sacrifice time point, the vascular specimens were harvested. The thrombocyte assembling and thrombus forming lining vessel wall were observed by scanning electron microscope. The pathological morphology of transplanted arteries were observed under microscope(HE). The intimal areas and stenosis ratio(%) of transplanted arteries were calculate and analyzed statistically among groups by computer system. The mRNA expression of tPA gene in transplanted ressel wall was detected with vevere transcription-PCR(RT-PCR). The number of PCNA positive cells in transplanted vessel wall was counted by SP immunochemisty. Results The mRNA expression of tPA gene in the transplan-ted vessel wall in tPA and tPA+PCNA-ASODN groups was higher than that of the other two groups (P

Objective To observe the co-expression plasmid of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and vascular endothelia growth factor165 (VEGF165) in vascular endothelial cell (VEC) and to study the effect of the product on the proliferation of VEC and fibrinolysis activity. Methods pBudCE4.1/tPA-VEGF165 was transfected into VECs by using lipofection. The expression of tPA and VEGF165 at mRNA level was detected by RT-PCR and expression at protein level was detected by Western blot. The fibrinolysis activity of VEC culture solution of transfecting tPA and VEGF165 genes were detected by fibrin plate technique. The VEC and VSMC were cultured with VEC culture solution of transforming tPA and VEGF165 genes, the proliferation of VEC and VSMC were evaluated with 3?H-TdR incorporation and flow cytometry (FCM). Results The expression of tPA and VEGF165 in the transfected VECs was detected. The fibrinolysis activity of transfected VEC culture solution was also detected. tPA and VEGF165 products in VECs elevated proliferation of VEC, while there was no effect on the proliferation of VSMC. Conclusion The tPA and VEGF165 eukaryotic co-expression plasmid could express in transfected VECs, and the expression products have biology activity.

Objective To observe the effects of co-transfection of proto-oncogene c-myc antisense oligodeoxynucleotides(c-myc-AODN) and tissue-type plasminogen activator(tPA) gene on intimal hyperplasia of auto-transplantion artery in rabbit. Methods The left and right external iliac artery(length 1.0 cm) of rabbits were cross transplanted. The artery grafts and sutures were respectively soaked in Lipofection, c-myc-AODN, pBudCE4.1/tPA, c-myc-AODN and pBudCE4.1/tPA solution for 15 minutes. Each group were divided into five subgroups(n=5, in each subgroup) according to the sacrifice times(3, 7, 14, 28 and 56 d after operation). Specimens were harvested for pathology, chromogenic substrate test, 3H-TdR incorporation test and immunochemisty coloration study. Result The intimal area, stenosis ratio, 3H-TdR incorporation, PCNA positive cell in c-myc-AODN adding tPA co-transfection group were significantly lower than that of control group(P0.01), and that were lower than c-myc-AODN transfection group and tPA gene transfection group(P0.05). Conclusion Vascular local co-transfection of tPA gene and c-myc-AODN effectively inhibits the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell(VSMC) and hyperplasia of intima of the transplanted artery.

AIM: To observe the effects of local transfection of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 (VEGF165) gene on inhibiting intimal hyperplasia and restenosis of artery in rabbits after operation injury, and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: Microsurgery injury was used to establish the intimal injury model of right external iliac artery in rabbits. 105 male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups (35 rabbits in each group). Group A was physiological saline control group, group B was pBudCE4.1-transfected group, group C was pBudCE4.1/VEGF165-transfected group. The physiological saline, pBudCE4.1 and pBudCE4.1/VEGF165 transfection solutions were injected into injured vessel walls of above-mentioned groups. The injured vascular specimen was harvested for pathologic examination, electric microscope observation, RT-PCR examining and immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS: Rabbit intimal thickness and area of vessel walls in group C at every time point after operation were significantly less than those in group A and group B (P

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of hospital infection and the pathogen type,distribution and drug resistance,in the intensive care unit of our hospital,to direct proper antibiotics use and supply the scientific basis for hospital infection control. Methods The clinical data of 392 inpatients in our intensive care unit from April 2008 to March 2010 were monitored prospectively and analyzed retrospectively. Results Of the 392 impatients,78 cases had hospital infection (19.89% 78/392),112 time-case infection (28.57% 112/392). The most common infection was the main respiratory tract infections accounted for 54.46% (61/112) ,followed by urinary tract infections accounted for 15. 19% ( 17/112 ), blood infection accounted for 11.61% (13/112). 152strains pathogens were identified in the study,in which G- bacilli accounted for 69.7%, G+ bacteria accounted for 17. 8% and fungi accounted for 12.5%. Main pathogens such as acinetobacter baumannii ,pseudomonas aeruginosa,klebsiella pneumoniae, staphylococcus aureus showed multiple drug resistance in different degrees. Conclusions Intensive care unit has a high nosocomial infection rate,lower respiratory tract infection is the most frequent type and the main pathogens have different degrees of multi-drug resistance. Standardized, rational use of antibiotics,prevention of the multi-drug resistant bacteria spread may help to reduce the occurrence of hospital infection in intensive care unit.

Rabbit hemorrhagic disease was described in China in 1984 and can cause hemorrhagic necrosis of the liver within two or three days after infection. The etiological agent, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), belongs to the Lagovirus genus in the Caliciviridae family. Compared to other calicivirus, such as rNV and SMSV, the structure of Lagovirus members is not well characterized. In this report, structures of two types of wild RHDV particles, the intact virion and the core-like particle (CLP), were reconstructed by cryo-electron microscopy at 11 &0A and 17 &0A, respectively. This is the first time the 3D structure of wild caliciviruses CLP has been provided, and the 3D structure of intact RHDV virion is the highest resolution structure in Lagovirus. Comparison of the intact virion and CLP structures clearly indicated that CLP was produced from the intact virion with the protrusion dissociated. In contrast with the crystal structures of recombinant Norovirus and San Miguel sea lion virus, the capsomers of RHDV virion exhibited unique structural features and assembly modes. Both P1 and P2 subdomains have interactions inside the AB capsomer, while only P2 subdomains have interaction inside CC capsomer. The pseudo atomic models of RHDV capsomers were constructed by homology modeling and density map fitting, and the rotation of RHDV VP60 P domain with respect to its S domain, compared with SMSV, was observed. Collectively, our cryo-electron microscopic studies of RHDV provide close insight into the structure of Lagovirus, which is important for functional analysis and better vaccine development in the future.
