OBJECTIVE: To observe the correct use of personal protective equipment( PPE) in migrant workers exposed to organic solvent,and to analyze the influencing factors. METHODS: A total of 108 migrant workers engaged in organic solvents working in the small and medium-sized enterprises were selected as study subjects by judgment sampling method.A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate their PPE utilization status. In addition,the influcing factors on the effective usage of PPE were analyzed. RESULTS: There were 52. 8% of migrant workers exposed to organic solvent who use the PPE correctly in their work. The multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the average monthly income,the greater the possibility of using the PPE correctly( P < 0. 05). The more frequent the number of respiratory tract infections in the past 6 months,the less likely the PPE was used correctly( P < 0. 05). The co-workers or supervisor often urge the use of PPE and co-workers use PPE correctly when exposed to organic solvent play a role in promoting the right usage of PPE in migrant workers( P < 0. 05). CONCLUSION: The correct use of PPE in migrant workers exposed to organic solvent is still needed to be improved. The peer education and improvement of enterprises' occupational health management are considered as important measures to promote the proper use of PPE in migrant workers exposed to organic solvent.

Estrogen has anti-colorectal cancer effects which are thought to be mediated by mismatch repair gene (MMR) activity. Estrogen receptor (ER) expression is associated with microRNA (miRNA) expression in ER-positive tumors. However, studies of direct link between estrogen (especially estradiol E2), miRNA expression, and MMR in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been done. In this study, we first evaluated the effects of estradiol (E2) and its antagonist ICI182,780 on the expression of miRNAs (miR-31, miR-155 and miR-135b) using COLO205, SW480 and MCF-7 cell lines, followed by examining the association of tissue miRNA expression and serum E2 levels using samples collected from 18 colorectal cancer patients. E2 inhibited the expressions of miRNAs in COLO205 cells, which could be reversed by E2 antagonist ICI 182.780. The expression of miR-135b was inversely correlated with serum E2 level and ER-beta mRNA expression in CRC patients' cancer tissues. There were significant correlations between serum E2 level and expression of ER-beta, miR-135b, and MMR in colon cancer tissue. This study suggests that the effects of estrogen on MMR function may be related to regulating miRNA expression via ER-beta, which may be the basis for the anti-cancer effect in colorectal cells.

Chinese Journal of Organ Transplantation 2010;31(5):284-286
Objective To discuss the optimal occasions for CsA withdrawal after kidney transplantation. Methods Thirty-eight cases of kidney transplantations in out-clinic were included in this study. CsA was withdrawn in their immunosuppressive regimen owing to different reasons after operation.All patients were followed up at least 2 years after operation, and followed up more than 12 months after CsA withdrawal. All patients were divided to two groups: Group A (18 cases), control group; group B (20cases), the CsA withdrawal owing its side effects. Acute rejection rate, SCr, uromicroprotein and side effects were analyzed in order to find the optimal occasions for CsA withdrawal Results CsA was re-administered in 9 cases (50 0/4) owing to different reasons in Group A. In group B, CsA was withdrawn due to gradually increased Scr and proteinuria in 12 cases, CsA related acute toxidty in 2 cases, hepatic injury in 8 cases and other reasons in 2 cases, After withdrawal of CsA, renal function was improved and hepatic injuries were recovered. Conclusion The suitable opportunity for CsA withdrawal for long-term survival patients should be at the beginning of gradually increased Scr and/or proteinuria. For the patients with normal and stable renal function and having no CsA related side effects, small dosage (1.5-2. 0 mg/kg)of CsA was the choice for the maintenance therapy.
