中国农村生殖健康领域社会性别行为量表的发展

为了对中国县区级计划生育/生殖健康领域的服务对象和服务提供者的社会性别角色行为进行评价,本文基于中国农村生殖健康领域的现实背景,采用了文献研究、访谈、专家评议以及心理计量的方法,分别发展了适用于中国县区级计划生育/生殖健康领域的服务对象和服务提供者社会性别行为量表(GBRHS-SC和GBRHS-SP),并于2005年6月在中国东部1个县区601个农村服务对象的样本和541个服务提供者的样本中测试了量表的心理计量学特征,发现GBRHS-SC具有较好的内部一致性信度和建构效度,GBRHS-SP具有较好的内部一致性信度,但是在建构效度方面还需要得到进一步改进和验证。     

The Average Treatment and Its Cost,Age, and Gender of Patients With Ischemic Heart Diseases

Ensuring efficient treatment of patients in hospital care, with precise management of resources and cost planning. Goals： Dividing the patients with ischemic heart diseases into five groups with the highest cost of treatment, and determining the link among the cost of treatment and the average length of hospital stay, age, and gender of these patients. Materials and methods： Standardized reports of 10,040 patients from three hospitals in Macedonia from 2010 to 2012 were used. The databases were processed in SPSS 17, and the ANOVA and the Chi-square test were applied. Results and discussion： There is a statistically significant difference between the groups which have different cost of treatment and the average length of their treatment （F = 183.63 and p = 0.000） and a statistically significant difference between the five most expensive groups of patients in terms of their gender （Chi-square = 370.262, df = 4, and p = 0.000）. Furthermore, there are statistically significant differences between patients with different cost of treatment in terms of their age （F = 24.25 and p = 0.000）. Conclusion： The ＂most expensive＂ patients have the longest average hospital stay.     

Cancer,HIV, and terrorism: translating public health models for prevention and control to counter-terrorism

What can cancer and HIV tell us about terrorism? How would we proceed if terrorism were a disease? A comparison of cancer and HIV can suggest alternative ways of conceptualizing terrorism and counter-terrorism using contrasting disease models that emphasize differing connections between etiology and prevention and control. A public health model also can help us think about terrorism as a basic research problem to be translated into therapeutic and preventive applications rather than primarily as a policy or political problem that makes only selective use of research studies. Through this re-conceptualization of terrorism as a basic and translational research challenge, we can draw upon the examples of the U.S. ‘War on Cancer’ and response to the ‘Aids Epidemic’ to help identify gaps in organizing academic and other resources to wage the ‘War on Terrorism.’ Recognizing and addressing these gaps could ultimately pave the way for more effective strategies in understanding and responding to the significant threats posed by terrorism, from the identification of factors that produce terrorist acts to the implementation of informed measures for the prevention and control of terrorist, and even proto-terrorist, activity.     

Alcohol‐Induced Osteopenia Among In‐Custody and Homicide Deaths from the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences

Four cases of in‐custody or unlawful death are presented as examples of increased bone fragility with an associated increase in fracture rates due to ethanol‐induced osteopenia. In addition, one of the individuals suffered fractures several weeks premortem, allowing some healing to take place. Using radiographs and physical examination, the ribs from these individuals are compared with those retained from three individuals with no history of alcoholism to illustrate diagnostic characteristics that will be notable using standard autopsy and anthropological procedures. Trabecular bone mass is notably decreased in the alcoholic group leading to a greater chance of fracture occurring during conflict, including arrest and in‐custody situations. The average number of perimortem fractures among the alcoholic individuals is 15, while the control group is six. In the case of the individual with healing, the degree of bone repair on the ribs was less than is expected considering the interval between injury and death.     

准确分析伤病关系是人体损伤程度鉴定的关键

损伤与疾病的关系是法医临床鉴定实践中经常遇到的问题,在人体损伤程度的鉴定中往往直接关乎鉴定意见,值得高度重视。最新发布的《人体损伤程度鉴定标准》对伤病关系处理原则做出了规定,是法医学的一大进步。准确分析伤病关系,要掌握损伤、疾病、损伤性疾病及损伤后疾病、病理基础、潜在性疾病及既往伤病等概念,对损伤与疾病的因果关系进行恰当的分析,并将分析结果运用到损伤程度的鉴定中。在伤病关系分析时,应当遵循事实因果关系的认定原则,从时间上的先后关系、解剖部位上的吻合性以及逻辑上的关联等角度加以论证。损伤程度的鉴定须遵循刑事证据的证明原则．排除合理怀疑。故鉴定人应注意采用恰当的分析方法,尽可能从更高的标准证明伤病关系是否存在。病理学、病因学、临床学上的因果关系,其证明价值要显著高于流行病学、案例报道及实验医学上的因果关系,在实际应用中应高度关注．     

Rights,bioconstitutionalism and the politics of reproductive citizenship in Italy

The introduction of a restrictive law on assisted reproduction in Italy in 2004 sees the privileging of a conservative model of family relations and a patriarchal conception of society. This law excludes many individuals from full reproductive citizenship. The 2004 Act excludes gay couples, single people and people who are carriers of genetically inherited conditions from access to assisted reproductive technologies. This article examines the manner in which citizen contestation of the law via Court challenges engages what Jasanoff (2011, Reframing rights: bioconstitutionalism in the genetic age, Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press) has termed a practice of ‘bioconstitutionalism’. Such a practice has led to a gradual judicial reworking of the Act, and demonstrates the power of individuals acting in concert to contest successfully draconian state action. It undoes the imposition of a biopolitical ordering on individuals and allows them, through their own continuous action, to perform a contestatory form of citizenship.     

从社会性别视角看《人口与计划生育法》的实施

《中华人民共和国人口与计划生育法》的颁布与实施,为推进计划生育/生殖健康领域的性别平等提供了良好的法律依据和保障。但由于中国特殊的国情,该法的实施,尤其是在对有关性别平等内容的推进上,面临着许多挑战。本研究从社会性别视角出发,对该法的实施过程进行社会性别分析,并提出了相关倡导建议。     

近期引起免疫失败的传染性腔上囊病病毒VP2基因的分子特征

用RT-PCR方法从2007年12月在安徽境内发生的两起传染性腔上囊病(IBD)免疫预防失败的病鸡腔上囊组织样品AH1与AH2中扩增出了传染性腔上囊病病毒(IBDV)VP2基因。序列分析表明,AH1与AH2病毒VP2基因长度均为1 350 nt,编码450 aa,七肽基序均为S-W-S-A-S-G-S,在222、253、256、279、284、294和299位上的氨基酸残基分别是A、QI、、D、AI、和S,具有IBDV强毒的分子特征,AH1和AH2感染的20日龄雏鸡产生明显IBD病变,死亡率为25%(1/4)。同源性分析表明,26个血清Ⅰ型IBDV毒株VP2基因核苷酸和氨基酸序列的同源性分别为90.7%～99.6%和95.5%～100%,不同IBDV毒株VP2基因的七肽基序、特征性氨基酸残基以及高变区的亲水性有差异。在进化树上,26个血清Ⅰ型IBDV毒株可分为数组,其中的15个中国分离IBDV毒株不在同组,毒株之间的亲缘关系与分离地区或分离时间没有明显的联系。AH1和AH2与现行商品疫苗毒株B87的VP2基因核苷酸序列的差异率分别为5.3%和5.2%,这也进一步佐证了IBDV野毒VP2基因变异所引起的毒力变化和VP2抗原表位的漂移是导致当前IBD疫苗免疫预防失败的主要原因。     

CERVICAL CANCER PREVENTION: MANDATING THE HPV VACCINE AS A CONDITION OF SCHOOL ATTENDANCE

This Note advocates that states require all females entering the sixth grade to be vaccinated with the HPV vaccine Gardasil, as a means of preventing cervical cancer deaths in the United States. States that do pass such a mandate would receive federal funding to help disperse the cost of the expensive three‐dose vaccine, especially to those females most in need. Subject to each individual state's mandate, parents would be allowed to opt their children out of such a mandate for religious, medical, and/or philosophical reasons.     

传统生育观的单系偏重探究

文化传统植根于民族深处,不易改变。我国传统社会的社会目标、社会结构和家庭结构具有其特殊性。重男轻女现象源自传统的社会生产方式,通过宗族社会体制强化,在孝的精神下神圣化和固化。当前单系偏重应从发展生产力、利益引导和可选择宗族体制重建三个方面加以解决。
