RÉSUMÉ
Objective:To test the validity and reliability of the Uighur version of Chinese Soldier Personality Questionnaire (CSPQ) in Uygur ethnic group of recruited youtt.Methods:Using the two-way checklist,all the items were judged by professors as their items belonging to test the content validity.Totally 101 Uygur population of permanent residents and totally 102 patients with schizophrenia in remission in sample 1 were tested for discrimination validity analysis.Totally 460 Uygur youths were recruited to complete the Uygur form of CSPQ for subscale normal distribution analysis and reliability analysis in sample 2.Totally 118 students of Urumqi College of Land Army from sample 3 were selected and retested for test-retest reliability with three weeks interval.Results:Uygur form of CSPQ had 283 items and 8 dimensions.Classification and recognition rate judged by professors ranged from 74.6% to 91.5%.Patients with schizophrenia scored higher than normal people in all scales.Reliability coefficients of the 8 dimensions ranged from 0.69 to 0.91,and the test-retest reliability ranged from 0.85 to 0.92.Conclusion:It suggests that Uighur version of Chinese Soldier Personality Questionnaire is of good validity and reliability.
RÉSUMÉ
Host genetic factors, such as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles, are important in Human immunod-eficiency virus (HIV) infection and its progression to AIDS. HLA class I genes, especially highly polymorphicHLA-B genes, are involved in the activation of HLA-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) against HIV, andthus control susceptibility to or protect against this virus. The present study was aimed to determine the distributionof HLA-B alleles in the Chinese Uygur ethnic group and its association with HIV infection. One hundred ten healthycontrol (HIV negative) and 128 HIV positive Chinese Xinjiang Uygur ethnic individuals were used in this study.HLA typing for B allele was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with sequence-specific primers (SSP).Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was calculated using POPGENE software for the healthy control group. The HLA-Bfrequency of each allele was compared between the patients and the controls using the chi-square test. In HIV-1-pos-itive group, gene frequency of allele B * 4901 was significantly higher compared to the healthy control subjects (P=0.02, OR=3.06, 95%CI=1.16~8.10 forB*4901). In contrast, the gene frequency of B * 40 in healthy controlswas significantly higher than in the HIV-positive patients (P=0.02, OR=0.39, 95%CI=0.07~0. 92 for B* 40).In this study, HLA allele B * 4901 may be associated with increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection, whereas the B* 40 allele may be associated with resistance to H HIV-1 infection.
