ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the relationship between alcohol related knowledge, attitude,practice and alcohol use disorder among high school students, and to provide reference for alcohol abuse intervention.@*Methods@#The study adopted stratified cluster sampling. A total of 811 high school students from 4 high schools in Changning District were selected to conduct a questionnaire survey on alcohol related knowledge, attitude,practice and alcohol dependence. The software SPSS 20.0 was used for statistical analysis.@*Results@#There were 279 (34.4%) high school students with mild alcohol use disorder and 29 (3.6%) with severe alcohol use disorder. The average score of high school students alcohol related knowledge, attitude,practice scores were (9.56±3.55) ( 4.96± 2.36) and (2.81±1.29),respectively. High school students alcohol related knowledge, attitude,practice were negatively correlated with alcohol use disorder score ( r =-0.10, -0.39, -0.71, P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression indicated that the total score of alcohol related KAP ( OR=0.86, 95%CI =0.83-0.89) and the family economic level (high level: OR=2.05, 95%CI =1.26-3.32) were positively associated with mild alcohol use disorder. The total score of alcohol related KAP ( OR=0.76, 95%CI =0.70-0.83) and school type ( OR=3.72, 95%CI =1.51-9.18) were positively associated with severe alcohol use disorder ( P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#There is a correlation between low alcohol related KAP and alcohol use disorder, alcohol related health education should be strengthened, especially among vocational school students and students from high family economic level.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Previous studies indicate that CD43 plays a role in regulating the adhesion of lymphocytes, cell mutation and activation, however, little is known about its effect on systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study was designed to explore the clinical significance of CD43 in SLE patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We used microarray and real-time PCR to detect the mRNA and protein expression of magnetic bead sorted T cells and B cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of SLE patients, and analyzed the relationship between CD43 and the clinical indexes.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Both microarray and real-time PCR results showed that CD43 mRNA was significantly decreased in PBMCs of SLE patients compared with healthy controls (P < 0.001). There were no significant differences between lupus nephritis and non-lupus nephritis patients, and neuropsychiatric and non-neuropsychiatric patients. CD43 mRNA expression was significantly reduced in T cells but not in B-cells in SLE patients compared to healthy controls (P < 0.01). Compared with healthy controls, the percentage of CD43(+) cells in the PBMCs of SLE was significantly decreased (P = 0.004), and the CD43 fluorescence intensity in CD3(+)/CD43(+) cells and CD19(+)/CD43(+) cells was also significantly weaker than in healthy controls (P = 0.039 and 0.003). There was no significant difference in the percentage of CD3(+)/CD43(+) cells, CD19(+)/CD43(+) cells between the two groups. The CD43 fluorescence intensity in CD3(+)/CD43(+) cells was inversely correlated with the levels of IgG and IgM (r = -0.8 and -0.6).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Compared to healthy controls, both CD43 mRNA and protein expressions were reduced in T cells from patients with SLE, and were inversely correlated with IgG.</p>
