RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the association of mobile phone use with sleep disorder and unhealthy eating behavior among college students of a medical university in Guangzhou.@*METHODS@#Mobile Phone Involvement Questionnaire (MPIQ), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire Revised 21 Item (TFEQ-R21) were used to survey 2122 undergraduates of the medical university. One-sample t test, One-way ANOVA and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the data.@*RESULTS@#Age, body mass index (BMI), phone use before sleep, phone use frequency, sleep quality (assessed by total PSQI score) and the dimension scores of TFEQ-R21 for uncontrolled eating, cognitive restraint, and emotional eating were all significantly correlated with the total score of MPIQ ( < 0.05). Phone use before sleep, high frequency of mobile phone use, poor sleep quality and emotional eating were associated with high MPIQ scores, while lower cognitive restraint and emotional eating tendency were correlated with lower scores of MPIQ. Bivariate analysis revealed that age (=0.088, < 0.001), BMI (=0.055, < 0.05), PSQI scores (=0.204, < 0.001), TFEQ-UE scores (=0.199, < 0.001), TFEQ-CR scores (=-0.076, < 0.001), TFEQ-EE scores (=0.170, < 0.001), phone use before sleep (=0.429, < 0.001), and phone use frequency (=0.316, < 0.001) were all significantly correlated with MPIQ scores; multiple linear regression analysis showed that model 4 incorporating the scores of TFEQ-UE, TFEQ-CR, and TFEQ-EE explained up to 21.8% of the main effect (adjusted R= 21.5%).@*CONCLUSIONS@#Mobile phone overuse is associated with poor sleep quality and unhealthy eating behaviors, and education and interventions for mobile phone use is essential among college students.

Objective To investigate the radiation dose to phantoms of thick dense breasts (compression thickness > 65 mm) and the influence of Molybdenum-Rhodium (Mo-Rh) and Wolfram Rhodium (W-Rh)) target-filter combination on image quality in full field digital mammography (FFDM).Methods An aluminium plate was placed on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plates to simulate dense breasts.Two of 68 mm in-depth phantoms were used to simulate photography condition of thick dense breasts with 0.1 and 0.2 mm aluminium plates respectively.The two phantoms were exposed automatically,half-automatically and manually.The parameters were recorded for each exposure including the target-filter(T-F),tube voltage (kV),tube current (mAs),average glandular dose (AGD),entrance surface dose (ESD) and the image quality figure inverse (IQFInv).Pearson correlation and regression was used to analyze the influence of AGD on IQFInv.Paired sample t-test was used to analyze the influence of different target-filters on IQFInv and AGD.Results AGD had a positive correlation with IQFInv (r =0.806-0.953,P < 0.05).For the phantom of 0.1 mm aluminium,when the tube current was fixed at 100 mAs or the tube voltage was fixed at 28 kVp,AGD and IQFInv had statistically significant difference for two target-filters(t =3.162-8.028,P <0.05).For the phantom with 0.2 mm aluminium,when the tube current was fixed at 100 mAs under different tube voltage,AGD and IQFInv had statistically significant difference for two target-filters(t =4.768-8.028,P < 0.05);when tube voltage was fixed at 28 kVp under different tube current,AGD had statistically significant difference for two target-filters(t =7.730,P < 0.05),while there was no statistical difference in IQFInv(P > 0.05).In addition,when tube current was 100 mAs,IQFInv had statistically significant difference for two phantoms in W-Rh(t =2.345,P < 0.05).Conclusions W-Rh target-filter combination can achieve lower radiation dose under the guarantee of the image quality compared with Mo-Rh target-filter combination.At the same tube current,W-Rh target-filter combination can provide a better image quality under a relatively high tube voltage.

Objective To understand the molecular epidemiology of penicillin resistance Streptococcus pneumonia (PNSP) isolated from children in Guangzhou area to provide the experimental basis for clinical prevention and control of Streptococcus pneumonia infectious diseases.Methods Specific primers were designed according to Genebank,penicillin binding protein(PBP) genes PBP1A,PBP1B,PBP2A,PBP2B,PBP2X,PBP3 were amplified by PCR.The sequencing analysis was performed.The PCR products were digested by Hinf I,and the restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was analyzed.Results DNA of PNSP was successfully extracted,the PCR results showed that in 50 strains of PNSP,the positive rates of bacterial strains containing PBP1A,PBP1B,PBP2A,PBP2B,PBP2X and PBP3 were 48.9%,64.4%,71.1%,31.1%,40.0% and 31.1% respectively.The sequencing showed that their homologies with known sequences in GenBank were 99%,98%,100%,97%,95% and 100% respectively.Using RFLP in Hinf I showed that PBP1A,PBP1B,PBP2A and PBP3 only had one kind of genotype,PBP2B and PBP2X had two kinds of genotypes,the positive rates were 71.4%,28.6%,66.7% and 33.3% respectively.Conclusion The gene distribution of PNSP strains among children in Guangzhou is dominated by PBP2A,PBP1B and PBP1A,there are two subtypes in PBP2B,PBP2X when digested by Hinf I,in which the predominant subtype >65%.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the radiation dose delivered to the patients with dense breasts and the influence of photographic conditions on image quality in full field digital mammography (FFDM).Methods (1) Clinical test:we analyzed the compression thickness of breasts,Target-filter(T-F),voltage current (kV),tube current (mAs),average glandular dose (AGD) and entrance surface dose (ESE) of 100 patients (a total of 370 images,277 images of Molybdenum-Rhodium(Mo-Rh)and 93 images of Wolfram-Rhodium (W-Rh)) who underwent examinations in mode of automatic exposure by FFDM with dense breasts.(2) Phantom experiments:placed the Aluminium plate on different thickness of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plates to simulate the dense breasts.68 mm phantom was used to simulate photographic condition of W-Rh and 58 mm to Mo-Rh.The two groups of dense phantom were exposed automatically and manually.The parameters were recorded for each exposure including the compression thickness of breasts,T-F,kV,mAs,AGD,ESE,the calculation of the ratio between ESE and AGD (ESE/AGD).The image quality figure inverse (IQFInv) was obtained by software.To the clinical test,used multiple factors of variance to analyze the influence of compression thickness and mAs on AGD and ESE,Pearson correlation and regression to analyze the influence of compression thickness on ESE/AGD.To the phantom experiments,used Pearson correlation to analyze the influence of kV and mAs on AGD,ESE and ESE/AGD,single factor of variance to analyze the influence of kV and mAs on IQFInv.Results (1) Clinical test:to Mo-Rh and W-Rh,with the increase of compression thickness,ESE/AGD was increased significantly.Compression thickness had linear relationship with ESE/AGD.Pearson correlation coefficients of W-Rh and Mo-Rh were 0.956 and 0.980,respectively(P<0.01).The effects of compression thickness and mAs on AGD and ESE were statistically significant (P<0.05) in the two groups.(2)Phantom experiments:adjusted exposure parameters to the two dense phantoms of W-Rh and Mo-Rh.With the increase of mAs and kV,IQFInv was increased in W-Rh and Mo-Rh.Different mAs and kV were statistically significant (P<0.05) on IQFInv,mAs and kV had positive correlation with ESE and AGD (P<0.05),mAs and kV had different correlation with ESE/AGD in the two dense phantoms.Conclusions In mode of automatic exposure by FFDM,choosing W-Rh can achieve relatively high image quality and lower radiation dose.According to the results of phantom experiments,adjusting kV and mAs properly in manual exposure can reduce AGD and ESE effectively and ensure the quality of the image.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the results of syphilis serology test among inpatients and to provide information for the control of syphilis.Methods Syphilis serology test results of inpatients from Jan.2010 to Nov.2012 in a tertiary general hospital were collected and retrospectively analyzed.The serum samples were screened by Treponema pallidum (TP) antibody enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and syphilis toluidine red unheated serum reagin test (TRUST) simultaneously.The TP-ELISA positive samples were confirmed by Treponema pallidum particle agglutination test (TPPA).Difference of measurement data was compared with analysis of variance.Results A total of 81 946 cases were collected,among which 1618 cases were positive of anti-TP.The positive rate of anti-TP was 2.27% in the year 2010,1.58% in 2011,and 2.11% in 2012.For male and female patients,the positive rates of anti-TP were 2.38% and 1.69%,respectively (x2 =48.97,P=0.00).The positive rates of anti-TP in the age groups of ≤19 years,20-39 years,40-59 years,60-79 years,and ≥80 years were 2.83%,0.94%,2.14%,2.37%,and 3.63%,respectively.The titer of TRUST was relatively lower in anti-TP positive inpatients.The anti-TP positive patients with TRUST titer < 1∶8 accounted for 84.65% in the age group of ≤19 years,79.69% in the 20-39 years group,81.69% in the 40-59 years group,86.12% in the 60-79 years group,and 87.45% in the age group of ≥80 years.The highest anti-TP positive rate (3.63%) was observed in the age group of ≥80 years with the lowest percentage (12.55 %) of TRUST titer ≥1∶8.The lowest anti-TP positive rate (0.94%) was observed in the 20-39 years group with the highest percentage (20.31%) of TRUST titer ≥1∶8.Conclusions The characteristics of syphilis serological positivity vary depending on genders and ages.The prevention and control measures for syphilis should be strengthened,especially in the senior population.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of different courses of topical tacrolimus 0.1% ointment in facial corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis and to observe the rebound in patients after treatment with these regimens.Methods A total of 104 patients with facial corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis were randomly divided into 3 groups to be treated with topical tacrolimus 0.1% ointment twice daily for 4,8 and 16 weeks respectively.The patients were followed up every 2 weeks within the early 4 weeks of treatment and every 4 weeks thereafter.The rebound phenomena was observed in patients on week 4 after the withdrawal of tacrolimus.Results Finally,90 patients completed this trial,including 32 patients in the 4-week group,29 patients in the 8-week group and 29 patients in the 16-week group.No significant differences were observed between the 4-,8- and 16-week groups in the total reponse rate (75.00%,82.76%,86.21%,respectively,x2 =1.35,P > 0.05).The rebound rate in the 16-week group significantly differed from that in the 4- and 8-week group (20.69% vs.46.88% and 41.38%,both P< 0.05),while no statistical difference was noted between the 4- and 8-week groups.Local burning and itching were reported in 31.73% of these patients,and all of these irritant reactions occurred within the first week of treatment.Conclusions Topical tacrolimus 0.1% ointment is safe and effective for the treatment of facial corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis.The total response rate does not increase with the extended treatment course,and 4 weeks of treatment is enough for the marked and stable improvement of facial corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis,but the rebound rate is likely to be reduced by extended treatment course.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the clinical features of drug hypersensitivity syndrome(DHS). Method Retrospective analysis of 18 cases of DHS was made in detail including clinical situation, laboratory examination, treatment instance,duration and prognosis. Results The earliest symptoms of all patients were skin rash and fever, which occurred in 2 to 8 weeks after the administration of the drugs, accompanied with superficial lymphadenopathy in 13 patients, liver dysfunction in 14 patients, renal impairment in 11 patients, leukocytosis in 13 patients and eosinophilia in 10 patients. The skin lesions were multiform. The common eruption was purpura-like erythemas, accompanied with swelling and repeated desquamation. The suspected drugs were as follows: allopurinol in 11 cases, carbamazepine in 4 cases, phenytoin in 2 cases and minocycline in 1 case. Corticosteroid was the first line of treatment Conclusions DHS is a clinical syndrome to have characteristic symptom and a relatively severe disease. It is crucial to discontinue the suspected drugs promptly and to start sufficient dose of corticosteroid.
RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the effects of lycopene on T lymphocyte subpopulations and pulmonary alveolar macrophagic (PAM) functions in rats with acute lung injury (ALI). Methods: Rats were randomly divided into the following groups. (1) Control group, (2) ALI model group, (3) Low dose group, (4) Mid dose group and (5) High dose group. Control group and ALI model group were treated with solvent of lycopene, and the other groups were gastrically incubated with lycopene. Thirty-five days later, control group were given physiological saline, ALI model group and lycopene administrated groups were injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (6.0 mg/kg) to induce ALI. One hour, four hours or six hours after LPS or physiological saline challenged, abdominal aorta blood for measuring lymphocyte subpopulations and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid for measuring function of PAM were gathered respectively. Results: (1) At h 1, the percentages of CD3+,CD4+ and CD8+ of lycopene administrated groups compared with control group were not significantly different. At h 4, the percentage of CD4+ was similar to that at h 1. As for the percentages of CD3+, except high dose group [(28.8?9.9)%] was significantly lower, low dose, mid dose and ALI model group showed no significant difference compared with control group[(39.5?4.5)%]. The percentages of CD8+ of ALI model and lycopene administrated rats, separately (10.2?3.9)%,(10.3?2.8)%,(9.8?2.8)%,(10.1?3.5)%, had been significantly reduced compared with control group[(15.1?2.5)%]; between ALI model and lycopene ad-ministrated groups there was no significant difference. The instance at h 6 was the same as that at h 4. The percentage ratios of CD4+ T-lymphocyte to CD8+ T-lymphocyte of ALI model rats were not significantly different compared with control group or lycopene administrated groups at h 1 and h 6. At h 4, the ratio of the CD4 + and CD8 + in Low dose and Mid dose groups had significant difference and ALI model, high dose hadn’t when they were compared with control group. (2) Lycopene increased the phagocytic function of PAMs significantly at h 1(P
