A total of 450 residents from three neighborhood committees of Ba'nan were selected to assess their willingness to accept paid influenza vaccine and the influencing factors.Among them,273(60.7％) were willing to accept paid influenza vaccine.Age,economic status,health,flu recognition and vaccine approval were the major influencing factors of vaccination.

In this study, we aim to investigate the protective effects of astragaloside on ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced photoaging in human fibroblasts and its possible mechanisms.

A few of patients with lumbar disk herniation having a separation of clinical symptoms and signs and imaging features, can be found in clinic, but the traditional theory of direct mechanical compression of nerve roots by herniated nucleus pulposus can't be used to explain this abnormal protrusion of lumbar intervertebral disc. The clinical symptoms and signs of the atypical lumbar disk herniation are affected by multiple factors. The indirect mechanical compression and distraction effect of spinal nerve roots may play an important role in the occurrence of the separation, and the appearance of abnormal clinical symptoms and signs is closely related to the migration of herniated nucleus pulposus tissue, transmission of injury information in the nervous system, and the complex interactions among the nucleus pulposus, dural sac and nerve roots. Moreover,the changes of microcirculation and inflammation secondary to the herniated nucleus pulposus tissue, the hyperosteogeny in the corresponding segment of the lumbar vertebrae and the posture changes all results in a diversity of symptoms and signs in patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. Besides, there exist congenital variation of lumbosacral nerve roots and vertebral bodies in some patients, and the misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis of imaging finding may occur in some cases. However, the appearance of a separation of clinical symptoms and signs and imaging examination in patients may be caused by a variety of reasons in clinic. The exact mechanism involved in the interaction among nucleus pulposus tissue, dural sac and nerve root, secondary changes of pathophysiology and biomechanics around the nucleus pulposus, the determination of lesioned responsible segments, and how to overcome the limitations of imaging all need the further researches.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the influences of the concentrations of sodium cholate, cholesterol and drug, preparation temperature, ultrasonic time and power on the particle size and encapsulation efficiency of Flos Magnoliae volatile oil nano-liposome through film-ultrasonic wave technique together with membrane filter method. METHODS: The nano-liposomes were prepared by film-ultrasonic wave technique together with membrane filter method. The drug content in liposomes was determined by gas chromatography and the particle size was determined by laser light scattering granularity equipment. RESULTS: By film-ultrasonic wave technique together with membrane filter method, the liposomes in the range of 30-40 nm were prepared. The prepared nano-liposomes demonstrated good decentralization and homogeneity, and the encapsulation efficiency was (91.7+/-3)%. CONCLUSION: Film-ultrasonic wave together with membrane filter method is a simple method to fabricate nano-magnoliae liposome.

INDENA SPA Company in Italy is a multi-national company that produces and sells plant extracts. Based on its own re- search advantages in the field of Ginkgo biloba preparation, the company protects its own products market effectively through building patent portfolio around the patents of its opponent. Based on the multi-angle analysis for patent portfolio of G. biloba preparation from the aspects of application time, legal status, technical development route, and patent portfolio layout, this article provides technical reference on research and development of G. biloba preparation, and the author suggest that Chinese applicants learn techniques and layout experiences of other patents fully to enhance the level of research and patent protection level.

Objective To understand the status of Toxoplasma gondii(TOX)infection in pregnant women in Qingdao area. Methods Antibody capture ELISA was used to detect the TOX-IgM,IgG and TOX-DNA in 1 341 pregnant women and 201 infer-tility,miscarriage,stillbirth pregnant women from June 2011 to July 2013. Results Among 201 abnormal pregnant women,43 cases were TOX antibody positive,accounting for 22.39%,and among the normal pregnant women,84 cases were TOX antibody positive,accounting for 6.26%,and there was a significant difference(χ2 =10.60,P<0.05). The TOX positive rate of 20-29 years old women was higher than that of the women aged over 30 years(χ2=21.9,P<0.05). The TOX antibody positive rates of families with pets and families without pets were 26.63%and 8.77%respectively(χ2=10.93,P<0.05). The TOX antibody posi-tive rates were 10.94%(22/201)in unemployed women,3.98%(8/201)in farmers,3.98%(8/201)in staff,and 3.48%(7/201)in workers. Conclusions The TOX infection rate in abnormal pregnant women is significantly higher than that in normal pregnancy women;therefore,the health education should be strengthened. In addition,in young women,especially 20-29 years old women, and some special occupation women,the control measures should be enhanced.

Objective To explore the relationship between nuclear factor-?B(NF-?B) and(P-glycoprotein)((P-gp)) on K562/A02 cells.Methods NF-?B and P-gp of K562/A02 cells cultured with PDTC in different concentrations and time were detected by immunohisochemisty,and the relationship between them was analyzed.Results In K562/A02 cells,the expression of NF-?B and P-gp were positively correlated,and were concentration-dependent and the time dependent.Conclusion The mechanism of NF-?B regulating anti-apoptosis of K562/A02 cells is related with MDR1.

30% was considered sensitive and the rate ≤30% was considered resistant;and the 6 specimens were divided into 2 group according to the above standard.cDNA microassay combined with clustering analysis was used to screen for resistance-related genes.Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was used for verification of HDAC1 gene expression.Results:Three of the 6 glioma specimens belonged to the drug resistance group and the other 3 to the drug sensitive group.cDNA microarray analysis combined with cluster analysis screened out 21 genes,with 6 up-regulated and 15 down-regulated.High expression of gene HDAC1 was noticed in all the 6 specimens by semi-quantitative RT-PCR,and the trend was similar to that by microassay.Conclusion:The primary drug resistance of glioma may be associated with the 21 genes screened by cDNA microarray;the detailed mechanisms for drug controlling still need to discussed in the future.

To explore the expressional information of PIWIL4 in human ovarian cancer, semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(semi-qRT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression level of PIWIL1, PIWIL2, PIWIL3 and PIWIL4 in human ovarian clear cell carcinoma ES-2 cells.Meanwhile, in human ovarian cancer and adjacent normal tissues, the mRNA expression of PIWIL4 was determined.Then, PIWIL4-siRNA, which was designed to target PIWIL4 and chemical synthesized, was transfected into ES-2 cells with lipofectamine.MTT assay and clone formation assay were used to investigate the effects of PIWIL4-siRNA on the cell growth activity and proliferation capacity of ES-2 cells.Experimental results showed that the mRNA expression level of PIWIL4 was the highest compared to PIWIL1, PIWIL2 and PIWIL3 in ES-2 cells(P
