To analyze the reality of ectopic pregnancy patients' clinical medication, find out the association rules of chemical medicine and traditional Chinese medicine, HIS data from 15 grade III-A general hospitals were collected, descriptive statistic methods and association rules were used in analysis of the data. The results showed that the most commonly used western medicine types were antibiotics,hemostatic medicine and killing embryo medicine. The most commonly used traditional Chinese medicine types were heat clearing and detoxicating drugs, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis drugs, tonifying Qi and blood drugs. The common combinations of western medicine and Chinese medicine were heat clearing and detoxicating drug add antibiotics, heat clearing and detoxicating drug add hemostatic medicine, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis drug add antibiotics, tonifying Qi and blood drug add antibiotics. In conclusion, the medicine types of ectopic pregnancy were concentrated. For conbined treatment of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine, heat clearing and detoxicating, tonic righting, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis treatment were often used on the basis of anti-inflammatory, killing embryo and hemostasis.

Objective To probe into the social support, coping styles, and mental health status of medical staff in a tertiary hospital in Beijing, for identifying potential mental problems. Methods Such means as the Social Support Rating Sheet (SSRS), Simple Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), Symptom Checklist (SCL-90), and demographic characteristics questionnaire were called into play, to study 2460 medical staff in five tertiary hospitals in Beijing. Results Differences were identified among medical staff of different demographic characteristics, in terms of positive coping style and support dimensions. Analysis of the survey data indicates that the total SCL scores, total symptom problem index, positive symptom pain level, total average score of the factors, are positively related to passive coping style, as P<0. 01; and are negatively related to subjective/objective support, support utilization, and total support scores, as P<0. 01. Conclusions Hospital administration is expected to implement focused intervention to such medical staff as those under 40 years old, women, widows or divorcees, those with education lower than university degree, those with junior academic title or lower, those without titles, those in emergency departments and emergency intensive care units, doctors and nurses, frequent night-shift workers, those of excessively low self evaluation, and medical staff with chronic diseases. The purpose of this practice is to alleviate their mental stress.

Object To prepare Heart protecting Musk Pellet (HPMP). Methods The HPMP was prepared by using a centrifugal granulator. The effect of formulation and technology on the yield of pellets was investigated. The optimal conditions of technology were selected by the uniform design. Results The yields of core pellets were affected significantly by the rotating rate of plate, amount of adhesive agent, the added speed of adhesive agent and the conditions of nebulization. The spraying rate of binder solution and feeding rate of powder were found to have significant influences on pelletizing. The process parameters established by the uniform design were as follows: the ratio of fine intermediate product and MCC was 1∶1, the adhesive agent was 3% HPMC solution. The rotating rate of plate was 200 r/min, the blower rate was 10?20 L/min, the rate of air flow was 15 L/min, the spray air pressure was 0 5 MPa, the rotating rate of spray solution pump was 14 r/min and the rotating rate of powder feed machine was 18 r/min. Conclusion Under the optimal conditions, the pellets prepared by using centrifugal granulator have perfect shape and surface characteristics and the yield of 1 000 700 ?m pellets could reach to 90 4%.

Objective To explore the normal range of the volume of frontal lobe in Chinese adults of the Han nationality and provide morphological data for the construction of database for Chinese Standard Brain. Methods This is a clinical multi-center study. Two hundred Chinese healthy volunteers (age range= 18 to 70) recruited from 16 hospitals were divided into 5 groups, i. e. , age range from 18 to 30, age range from 31 to 40, age range from 41 to 50, age range from 51 to 60, and age range from 61 to 70. Each group contained 20 males and 20 females. All of the volunteers were scanned by MR using T1 weighted threedimensional magnetization prepared rapid acquisition gradient echo sequence. We used the manual method to trace the region of interest and measured the left and right frontal lobe volumes separately. All the data were analyzed with SPSS (version 13.0). The sex differences in the frontal lobe volumes were analyzed by independent-samples t test, and the side differences were analyzed by paired-samples t test. Correlation and regression analysis was used between the age and the frontal lobe volumes. Results In 200 healthy Chinese Han volunteers, the total frontal lobe volumes was (563 ± 73) cm3. For male, the volumes of the left and the right frontal lobe were (288±42) cm3 and (292 ±41 ) cm3 ,respectively. The volumes of the left and right frontal lobe in 100 women were (273 ±30) cm3 and (274 ± 30) cm3 respectively. The differences of sex (t = 3. 334, P < 0. 05 ) and side ( t = - 3.09, P < 0. 05 ) in the total frontal lobe volumes reach significant. There was no significant differences in women ( t = - 1. 304, P > 0. 05 ). There were negative correlations between the frontal lobe volumes and age in men and women ( r = - 0. 586, - 0. 498, P <0. 01 ). Conclusions The total frontal lobe volume of men was larger than that of women. The volume of the right frontal lobe was larger than the left frontal lobe in men, and the asymmetries didn't exist in women.The total frontal lobe volumes were both shrinking with age in men and women, which was more rapid in men than in women.

Objective To measure the volume of hippoeampal formation(HPF) in healthy Chinese Han adults and provide database for researching on a variety of diseases associated with alteration of hippocampal structure. Methods This is a clinical multi-center study. One thousand Chinese healthy volunteers (age range = 18 to 70) recruited from 15 hospitals were divided into 5 groups, i. e. , Group A (age range = 18 to 30), B (age range =31 to40), C (age range =41 to 50), D (age range=51 to 60),and E (age range =61 to 70). Each group contained 100 males and 100 females. All of the volunteers were scanned by MR using T1 weighted three-dimensional magnetization prepared rapid acquisition gradient echo sequence. The margin of HPF were outlined manually for each side. Using multiple linear regression,relationships between hippocampal volume and sex, age, weight and height were analyzed respectively.Independent two sample t test was used to study the differences between male and female and between lcft and right. The differences of hippoeampal volume among age groups were analyzed by ANOVA. Results Hippocampal volume for left and right side were (4752 ± 659) and (5032 ± 660) mm3 respectively. The volume of HPF is significant correlated with gender and age, but without relevance to height and weight ( left and right r = 0. 283,0. 311, F = 30. 127,37. 050 ,P < 0. 01 ). The volumes of left and right hippocampus were (4897 ± 670), (5192 ± 667)mm3 respectively for men, and (4647 ± 624) and (4904 ± 630) mm3 for women. The right hippocampal volume was larger than the left ( t = 7. 030,6. 696, P < 0. 05 ). On both sides, men have larger hippocampus than that of women ( t = 6. 586,7. 326, P < 0. 01 ). The volumes of the left hippocampus among the five age groups in the male were (4981 ± 684), ( 5003 ± 609 ), (4976 ± 657 ),(4841 ± 631 ), (4631 ± 681 ) mm3 respectively, while the volumes of the right hippoeampus were (5340 ±647) ,(5276 ±582), (5264 ±620), (5133 ±661 ), (4894 ±699) mm3 respectively. Among age groups,the differences were statistically significant ( left and right F = 5. 737,7. 607, P < 0. 01 ). For male, there was significant difference of bilateral hippoeampus between the 18-30, 31-40, 41-50 years group and 61-70 years group ( P < 0. 05 ) and there was no significant difference among the other groups ( P > 0. 05 ).There was no significant difference of hippocampal among different groups in women (P > 0. 05 ).Conclusions With high-resolution MRI, the volume of the HPF was accurately measured, so as to provide the basic data for research of the hippocampus-related disease.
