Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2013;(3):274-276
Objective To study the negative emotion regulation of sea-going seafarers,establish a regulation strategy questionnaire of sea-going seafarers' negative emotion and examine its reliability and validity.Methods Based on open-ended questionnaires and previous researches,the initial questionnaire was obtained.Randomly selected 188 sea-going seafarers,by adopting program analysis and factor analysis,the final questionnaire was determined.Tested 121 sea-going seafarers by using the final questionnaire,while 55 of them by using coping style questionnaire at the same time.After two weeks,47 of them were tested by final questionnaire again.The reliability and validity of the questionnaire were investigated during the research,and the criterion validity between the coping style questionnaire and regulation strategy questionnaire of sea-going seafarers' negative emotion was also studied.Results The factor analysis results showed that the questionnaire was composed of seeking for support,abreaction,inobservance,transfer and oppression.Cronbach α of each factors was 0.857,0.841,0.825,0.806,0.754 respectively;and Cronbach o of the entire questionnaire was 0.873.The split-half correlation coefficients were 0.697,-0.839 (P < 0.01) ; test-retest reliability coefficients were 0.706,-0.822 (P < 0.01).The correlation between subscales were-0.031,-0.459 ; and the correlation between subscales and total scale were 0.590,-0.806 (P < 0.01).Criterion validity showed that despite for the abreaction,each factor was significantly correlated with the factors of coping style questionnaire.Conclusion The sea-going seafarers' negative emotion regulation strategy questionnaire has acceptable psychometrics properties on reliability and validity.

Objective To analyze features of clinical manifestation, laboratory tests, electrophysiology and imagol?ogy of Heidenhain’s variant of Creutzfelt-Jakob disease (CJD). Methods Clinical data, laboratory and electrophysiologi?cal results as well as medical images were collected from 3 patients with Heidenhain variant of CJD. Results Three pa?tients presented with rapid visual impairment at onset and refractory pruritus. Whole gene sequencing indicated that one patient had point mutation at E200K whereas the other two did not the mutation. All the cases had positive 14-3-3 pro?tein in CSF. Patients had three phases sharp waves burst at posterior part of cerebral cortices with slow waves back?ground in EEG, no evoked P100 in visual evoked potential test,‘cortical ribbon sign’at bilateral occipital lobe in DWI sequence of head MRI and hypometabolism of glucose from occipital cortex spreading to extensive cerebral cortices in PET/CT. Conclusion Head MRI and EEG should be conducted in old patients with visual disturbance as the onset symptom, followed by rapid cognitive impairment, ataxia and extrapyramidal symptom to rule out Heidenhain variant of CJD. Refractory pruritus indicates a high likelihood of CJD.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between Multi-slices spiral(MSCT) perfusion and microvessel density (MVD) in maxillofacial tumors. Methods Thirty-one cases of maxillofacial tumors were studied with MSCT perfusion imaging before operation. The time-density curve, perfusion, time to peak(TTP), and Peak enhancement imaging (PEI) of tumors were calculated. MVD of the tumors was measured with immuno-histochemical method by means of detecting factor Ⅷ in all the histologic specimens. Relativity analysis was carried between MSCT perfusion imaging parameters, perfusion curve types and MVD. Results MVD of maxillofacial tumors were higher than normal tissue. MVD remarkably correlated with malignancy of the tumors. Perfusion and time to peak (TTP) correlated well with MVD(t=7.09,4.10, P0.05). Significant difference of MVD in three types of perfusion curve was found(F=8.09,P

Tripterygium wilfordii has complex chemical components. To study and summarize the advance in studies on the anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory activities and toxicology of known monomers of T. wilfordii, the pertinent literatures related to the studies on the pharmacology, toxicology and pharmacokinetics of T. wilfordii over past 30 years were searched. According to the findings, more than ten anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory monomers were found in T. wilfordii. The pharmacology and toxicology of wilforidine, triptolidenol, triptonide, demethylzeylasteral shall be further studied.

Background and purpose: ERCC2 gene silence by siRNA interference was observed in esophageal cancer cell line and it could change cell sensitivity to taxol. This study was to investigate the biological mechanism of paclitaxel-resistance in esophageal cancer cells. Methods: ERCC2 targeting siRNA (si-ERCC2) has been synthesized. The constructor were transfected into ERCC2 cell lines high-KYSE150(bigh expression of ERCC2) through lipofectamine. RT-PCR and flow cytometry (FCM) were used to detect the ERCC2 mRNA and protein expression levels. MTr assay was used to estimate the paclitaxel sensitivity of the cells. Results: In si-ERCC2 group, ERCC2 could not be detected and ERCC2 protein expression were reduced by 31.2%, 51.6% and 60.0%, respectively, 24,48,72 b after transfection. Paclitaxel IC_(50) value for si-ERCC2 group was 6.32±0.87 μg/mL, lower than the control group(49%). Conclusion: siRNA could successfully silence the target gene ERCC2 at the level of transcription and translation of the gene, the reduction of ERCC2 expression may reverse taxol resistance of the cells.

Objective:To validate the clinical value of CT-guided curve-needle percutaneous ethanol injection (CNPEI) for celiac plexus block analgesia. Methods: Thirty-two patients with end-stage cancer, including 13 complicated with extensive retroperitoneal lymph node enlargement and fusion, were enrolled in this study. All patients complained of refractory upper abdominal pain and had received narcotic analgesics and radiotherapy, but the analgesic effect was not good. CT-guided CNPEI was therefore prescribed. Results: The effective rates of CT-guided CNPEI were 100%, 100%, 96.9%, 90.6%, 87.5%, and 84.4% immediately,and at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 16 weeks after treatment, respectively. All enlarged lymph nodes had obvious necrosis and became shrunk. Conclusion: Combined application of bilateral anterior and posterior diaphragmatic crura block and trans-lymph node block can produce good analgesic effects, and curve-needle puncture make the above technique simpler.

Objective:To validate the therapeutic value of CT-guided percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) in the treatment of metastatic adrenal tumors. Methods: Thirty-one foci (diameter ranging from 1.5 cm to 7.2 cm) in 25 patients with metastatic adrenal tumors were treated with CT-guided PEI for more than twice. Plain and enhanced CT scans were performed 1-2 months after PEI to observe the size and necrosis of the tumors. Results: Post-PEI enhanced CT scan showed that 18 of the 20 foci with diameters less than 3 cm completely necrotized; 11 foci with diameters between 3 cm and 7.2 cm necrotized partially, and 2 foci completely necrotized after another 2-3 courses of PEI treatment. Conclusion: CT-guided PEI is a simple and minimally invasive means for treatment of metastatic adrenal tumors, and the therapeutic effect is satisfactory.
