34 weeks. The clinical data were evaluated. The relations between the pattern of end organ damage and maternal outcomes and perinatal mortality and morbidities were analyzed. Results 71. 70% of all 191 S-PE cases were involved in single organ systemic damage, and the rate was higher than those involved in two or more end organ damage. In those women with single end organ damage, placenta (55. 26%) and liver(15. 79%) were the two main organs concerned in early onset group; while in late onset group they were placental(18. 42% , compared with the early onset group P

Based upon our previous experiments of acupuncture analgesia, morphine was adopted for comparison with acupuncture analgesia. Ninty four healthy, adult, male rats were divided into three groups: Two morphine(2,10 mg/kg) and one control group. The pain threshold of 10mg/kg morphine group was similar to that of the acupuncture analgesia; that of the 2mg/kg morphine group varied a great deal individually. Another group of 86 rats were selected and divided into three groups: effective acupuncture group, morphine (10mg/kg) group, and the control. After the measurement of pain threshold, the amount of AChE of the locus coeruleus of the animals was measured with a microphotometer. The ACHE reaction of acupuncture group was significantly increased in comparison with the control as well as with the morphine group. That of morphine group was weaker than the control, though without statistical significance. The number of AChE positive cells in nucleus raphe dorsalis of the acupunctured rats was significantly increased, while no significant difference existed between that of the control and morphine groups.The results showed that both acnpuncture and morphine produced effective analgesia. The former seemed, however, to act upon certain nuclei of the central nervous system possibly through the activities of their enzymes. Neurotransmitters may take active part in analgesia and probably a functional regulation of the organism is involved.

Objective To investigate the mental health and its correlated factors for senile dementia caregivers in nursing homes in Shenyang. Methods Questionnaire survey was conducted among 174 senile dementia caregivers recruited from the Nursing Home of Shenyang and Shenyang Social Welfare Institute by using Symptom Check-List-90 (SCL-90), Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and self-designed general information questionnaire and to analyze the scores of self rating scale of nursing staff, the total score of social support scale, and the factors affecting the mental health status of nursing staff. Results The SCL-90 scores of senile dementia caregivers with education levels from illiteracy, primary school or junior high school, high school or secondary school, college or above were 130.50 ± 10.11, 132.70±12.55, 135.06±9.15, 129.24±8.83, the difference was statistically significant (F=15.05, P<0.01). The SCL-90 scores of senile dementia caregivers with poor, general and good perceived health status were 133.40±10.52, 132.60±11.32, 128.00 ±10.02, the differences were statistically significant (F=9.07, P<0.01). The SCL-90 scores of family monthly income of 1001 to 3000 yuan, 3001 to 5000 yuan and more than 5001 yuan were 132.90 ± 10.39, 132.80 ± 11.52, 131.50 ± 8.20, the difference was statistically significant (F=12.11, P<0.01). The multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the regression coefficient of perceived health status was-0.168 (t=2.880, P<0.01), monthly family income was-0.145 (t=-2.512, P<0.05), SSRS was 0.121 (t=2.112, P<0.05). Conclusions Mental health status of senile dementia caregivers in Shenyang is poor. The health sector should take some measures to improve the degree of social support, nursing staff wages and to ensure their health in order to promote physical and mental health of nursing staff and the nursing level so as to improve the quality of life of the senile dementia elderly.

Objective To describe the consistency of three diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome(MS) proposed by ATP lI[ in 2005,CDS in 2004 and IDF in 2005 in Chinese.Methods With cluster sampling method,5 494 subjects was selected and studied, and the prevalence of MS was calculated according to three definitions with software SPSS 13.0.Results The crude prevalence of MS in Tongzhou area was 15.8% by IDF(2005) definition,8.5% by CDS(2004) definition and 15.8% by NCEP-ATPⅢ definition,women had higher prevalence than men(P
