HIV-negative children’s experiences and opinions towards parental HIV disclosure: a qualitative study in China

In HIV/AIDS research, few studies to date have evaluated ways to improve parental HIV disclosure practices using feedback from HIV-negative children who have recently experienced this event. We conducted semi-structured in-depth interviews with 20 children (aged 6–15) who were partially to fully aware of their parents’ HIV status in rural Guangxi, China. Of the 20 children, eight children who were of older age (11.38 years in average) endorsed parental HIV disclosure, five discouraged it and seven expressed uncertainty. Children’s different experiences and attitudes towards disclosure were seen to be associated with their family dynamics (especially the parent–child relationship), social support and care, experiences of stigma and discrimination, psychosocial suffering, comprehension of the disease and the children’s age. Our study contributes to building a child-centered comprehensive understanding for Chinese parental HIV disclosure. It is imperative that counselors and community advocates assess and help parents achieve optimal readiness preceding disclosure of their illness to their HIV-negative children.     

模拟舰船磁场与噪声、高温复合对机体作用的方差分析

目的 研究模拟舰船两种剂量水平磁场复合噪声、高温对机体联合作用的特点。方法 采用有交互作用的三因素二水平的正交试验设计方法及方差分析法，按正交表L8（2^7）的要求安排8种复合暴露剂量组合，分别将兔和大鼠分为8个复合暴露组和8个对照组。结果 兔球结膜毛细血管管径、大鼠肝和脾脏HSP70的分析结果显示出磁场是对其影响的主因素（均为P〈0．01），其次是高温（均为P〈0．05）,大鼠下丘脑AVP和大鼠脑组织HSP70的分析结果显示出磁场是对其影响的主因素（均为P〈0．05）。兔血浆内皮素的分析结果显示出磁场与噪声交互作用所对应的F值有非常显著性意义（P〈0．01），磁场与噪声、高温三者之间交互作用所对应的F值也有显著性意义（P〈0．05）。结论 磁场是对上述指标影响的主因素，而高温也是重要因素；磁场与噪声有交互作用，磁场与噪声、高温三者之间也有交互作用；应该重视舰船环境因素对舰船人员的复合作用。     

Gentamicin-induced diffuse renal tubular dysfunction.

Sir, Aminoglycoside-induced renal tubular dysfunction could be dividedinto Fanconi-like syndrome (FS) and Bartter-like syndrome (BS)[1]. The risk factors and mechanisms of tubular dysfunctionare little known. Here, we report a case of gentamicin-inducedFS, BS and distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA) and propose thepossible involvement of mitochondria. Case. A 66-year-old Chinese male was admitted because ofpneumonia.     

“搓滚舒筋”练功疗法

“搓滚舒筋”练功疗法,是一种以竹筒为简易器械的脚底搓滚练功治疗“筋挛缩”症的方法。最早文献见于马王堆汉墓出土的帛书《五十二病方》,起码有两干多年的渊源。骨伤科常用之,内、外诸科亦有用之。这一传统疗法,筒、便、廉、验,值得弘扬。     

手工凝聚胺试验影响因素分析

目的分析各种因素对手工凝聚胺试验的影响；方法应用手工凝聚胺（manual polgbrene test，MPT）做交叉配血及抗体筛选试验；结果血液标本、操作手法、凝聚胺试剂、药物（肝素、止血敏、高浓度KCl等）等对试验均有影响；其中以药物、操作手法影响较大，可致假阴性和假阳性结果；结论手工凝聚胺试验做交叉配血及抗体筛选时应注意排除药物和操作手法对试验结果的影响。     

成人成骨细胞与珊瑚羟基磷灰石的体外生物相容性

目的：研究成人骨髓成骨细胞与珊瑚羟基磷灰石（carolline hydroxyapatite,CHA)在体外培养条件下的生物相容性。方法：抽取健康成人骨髓组织，置于含体积分数为10％胎牛血清的DMEM培养基中培养，传代后改用含地塞米松、β-甘油磷酸钠和维生素C的条件培养基培养，分为CHA复合细胞组和单纯细胞组，不同时间用倒置相关显微镜，HE染色光镜及扫描电镜观察，MTT法进行细胞增殖测定，并进行细胞微量蛋白含量和碱性磷酸酶的定量检测，结果：成人骨髓成骨细胞体外培养时复合或不复合CHA均生长良好，表现出典型成骨细胞的形态特征和生物学特性，CHA利于细胞的贴附，生长与增殖，并对细胞的功能无不良影响，结论：CHA是较理想的骨组织工程支架材料，成骨细胞复合CHA用于骨缺损的修复，具有广阔的临床应用前景。
