Objective: Analysis for the differences of protein polypeptide ingredients in Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops and Zhenzhuye in order to provide the reference data to ensure the stability of production process of crude material and effectively control the quality of Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops. Methods: Polypeptide ingredients in Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops and Zhenzhuye were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF MS in positive mode using an Acquity UPLC BEH C18 (50 mm×2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) column. Mobile phase is acetonitrile-0.1% methanol; Contents of 16 amino acids were detected by pre-column derivatization RP-HPLC method. Results: Molecular weight (MW) of polypeptide and the contents of the amino acids in Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops and Zhenzhuye were significantly different. In the five manufacturers, MW of polypeptide was less than 2000 in Zhenzhuye samples from the three manufacturers, while MW of polypeptides were 500-4746 for samples of the other two manufacturers and MW of main polypeptides were higher than 2000.MW ranges of main polypeptides in Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops from two manufacturers were 2000-4000 and beyond 4000. There were not the polypeptides with MW beyond 4000 in samples of the other five manufacturers. The content percentages of 16 amino acids in Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops from the seven manufacturers were obviously different. The mass concentration ratios of proline and alanine in Zhenzhuye produced by acid/enzyme hydrolysis from two manufacturers are beyond 1.For the other five manufacturers with water extract technique, the mass concentration ratios of proline and alanine are below 1. Conclusion: The quality standard of Zhenzhuye should be revised and water extract should be applied in preparation process to ensure the effective ingredients polypeptides (500-5000). In quality standard of Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops and Zhenzhuye, the mass concentration ratio of proline/alanine and the total contents of amino acids should be added as check and content determination items, respectively, so as to effectively control the quality of Zhenzhu Mingmu Eye Drops and ensure its validity.
Résumé
The risk factors and precautions of inpatient suicide were explored. Thirty suicide victims were drawn from the adverse event reports of suicidal act during hospitalization in a general hospital from 2008 to 2014. Data were gathered from the focus group interviews of twelve nurses who had experienced inpatient suicide. The data were analyzed by using analytical technique based on grounded theory, and software QSR NVIVO8 was used to aid the collation of data. Three main themes of risk factors about inpatient suicide emerged from the analysis: individual value, social factors and environmental factors. The individual value was categorized into different groups such as sense of guilt, hopelessness and low self-esteem. Social factors included two aspects of negative life events and social support. Three themes of precautions about inpatient suicide appeared in this study: evaluation, nursing and information exchange. Evaluation was elaborated from both physical and psychological assessments. This finding extends existing work of risk factors and precautions about inpatient suicide and brings new knowledge about the reasons why inpatients commit suicide.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the relationship between microwave radiation and male reproductivity.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>After filling out questionnaire and body check, we carried out molecular epidemiological studies, using single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) and sperm automatic analysis among people working on radar.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Quality of semen and semi-clinical injury of sperm among the people working on radar had changed when radar electromagnetic wave frequency distance, intensity, lasting time and protection shield were changing. Dose-response relationship was noticed and the increase of sperm dysmorphia played a principal role. The results between exposed group and control group showed significant difference (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>People working on radar who suffered from non-ionization for long time and had bad radar shield protection would show semi-clinical injury on sperm and bad semen quality. However, it did not affect the male reproductive function. It was necessary to reinforce the protection of non-ionization and to improve male reproductive health care of people working on radar.</p>
