Objective This study investigates the effect of collectivism-individualism on parenting goals of middle school students' parents. Methods COLINDEX and Kohn's Parental Values Survey were used. 378 parents participated in the study. Results Fathers had higher score(3.23±0.73) on individualism than do mothers (3.05±0.44,F(1,359)=5.25,P <0.05);and highly educated (college or above) parents had higher scores(4.00±0.86) than do those with less education(for senior high school:3.91±0.81; junior high school or below:3.83±0.97,F(2,363)=4.72,P <0.01). Regression analysis indicated that collectivism had significant effects on goals of "take responsibilities and adapt to environment" ( P <0.01) and "conform to norm and obey parent" ( P <0.01). Both collectivism and individualism had significant effects on goal of "explore and be enterprising" ( P <0.05;P <0.01). Conclusion Parents with high collectivistic value expected their children to assume responsibilities,to adapt to the society,to adhere to norms and to obey authority. However,parents with high individualistic value encouraged their children to be independent and enterprising.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of programmed death-1 (PD1) inhibitor combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the treatment of huge primary liver cancer.Methods:From June 2016 to December 2019, the clinical data of 31 patients with huge primary liver cancer enrolled in the Central Hospital of Lishui were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The tumor size ranged from 10.1 to 18.8 cm, with an average of (14.2±2.3) cm. The patients were divided into TACE group (TACE treatment, 18 cases) and combined group (one week after TACE, patients receiving a dose of 200 mg PD1 inhibitor administration every 21 days, 13 cases), according to whether patients receiving PD1 inhibitors. The patients were followed up. The disease control rate (DCR) were compared between the two groups using Mann-Whitney U test. The median overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results:The DCR in combined group (53.8%, 7/13) was higher than that in TACE group (22.2%, 4/18), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.13, P=0.04). The median PFS (5.0 months) in combined group was longer than that in TACE group (3.0 months), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.39, P=0.04). The median OS (15 months) in combined group was longer than that in control group (9 months), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.51, P=0.02). Conclusion:The combine PD1 inhibitors with TACE is an effective and safe therapy for huge primary liver cancer.
