ABSTRACT
Objective@#This paper discussed possible mechanisms of mobile phone addiction on mental health of vocational college students, and to explore the role of selfcontrol and selfesteem in this association.@*Methods@#Totally 898 vocational college students from Liaocheng, Kunming and Wuhan were selected by random cluster sampling. Subjects were investigated with the Mobile Phone Addiction Index, DepressionAnxietyStress Scale (short version), SelfControl Scale, and SelfEsteem Scale.@*Results@#About 27.6% of the participants selfreported mobile phone addiction. Mobile phone addiction score (45.80±10.41)was positively correlated with mental health(36.18±9.13)(P<0.01). A significant negative correlation was found between mobile addiction tendency with selfcontrol and selfesteem (both P<0.01). Male students scored higher on depression, anxiety and stress than female students(t=3.57, P<0.01). Selfcontrol played a partial intermediary role in the association between mobile phone addiction and mental health(β=-0.36, P<0.01). The influence of mobile phone addiction tendency on depression and stress were moderated by selfesteem.@*Conclusion@#Mobile phone addiction has a direct and indirect effect on mental health through selfcontrol. With increasing level of selfesteem, effect of mobile phone addiction on mental health tends to become weaker.
ABSTRACT
Protopanaxadiol (PPD) has inhibitory effects on many tumors and receives much attention. However,it has poor water solubility and low utilization, which limits its clinical application. Considering these issues,in this study,we used hollow gold nanoparticles as transport carriers of PPD and synthesized PPD hollow gold nanoparticles (HAuNs). We conducted a number of experiments to investigate the in vitro anti-laryngeal cancer Hep-2 effect of a PPD HAuNs carrier. High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used to detect the sustained release effect of PPD HAuNs. MTT assay was used to detect the inhibitory effect of PPD HAuNs on the proliferation of Hep-2 cells. Effect of PPD HAuNs on Hep-2 cell apoptosis was investigated by flow cytometry. The results of in vitro release showed that PPD HAuNs had sustained release effect. Compared with blank control group,HAuNs group and PPD group,the survival rate of Hep-2 cells in HAuNs-PEG-PPD group decreased more significantly and the apoptosis rate increased more significantly (p<0.01). PPD HAuNs could significantly enhance anti-laryngeal cancer effect of PPD in vitro and promote the apoptosis of tumor cells. It promotes tumor cell apoptosis, and is expected to be a new PPD drug delivery system, further promoting the application of PPD in clinical anti-laryngeal cancer.
