How Does Leadership in Safety Management Affect Employees' Safety Performance? A Case Study from Mining Enterprises in China.

Leadership is a necessary element for ensuring workplace safety. Rather little is known about the role of leadership safety behaviours (LSBs) in the mining industry. Using regression analysis and structural equation modelling analysis, this study examined the cause-and-effect relationships between leadership safety behaviours and safety performance.

What Influences Miners' Safety Risk Perception?

The risks faced by the mining industry have always been prominent for every walk of life in China. As the direct cause of accidents, individual unsafe behaviors are closely related to their risk perception. So, it is important to explore the factors affecting miners' risk perception and analyze the influencing mechanisms between these factors and risk perception.

[Compound porcine cerebroside and ganglioside relieves brain injury and promotes expression of cerebellin 4 in neonatal mice with intrauterine hypoxia].

Objective To study the effects of compound porcine cerebroside and ganglioside injection (CPCGI) on brain injury and expression of cerebellin 4 (CBLN4) in neonatal mice after intrauterine hypoxia. Methods A total of 15 healthy adult pregnant mice were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group with 3 mice, model group and CPCGI treatment group with 6 mice in each group. From the 14th day of pregnancy, the pregnant mice in the CPCGI treatment group and model group were put into the animal hypoxia box to produce the intrauterine hypoxia fetal mouse models.

[Sophoridine inhibits the proliferation of human gastric cancer MKN45 cells and promotes apoptosis].

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of sophoridine on the proliferation and apoptosis of human gastric cancer MKN45 cells and the possible mechanism. MKN45 cells were randomly divided into control and sophoridine (including 6 subgroups) groups. Cell proliferation was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric method.

[Effect of chondroitinase ABC on growth associate protein 43 and glial fibrillary acidic protein after spinal cord injury in rats].

Objective: To investigate the effect of chondroitinase ABC (ChABC) on the expression of growth associated protein 43 (GAP-43) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats.

Methods: A total of 150 adult female SD rats, weighing 250-300 g, were randomly divided into ChABC treatment group (group A), saline treatment group (group B), and sham operation group (group C) with 50 rats in each group. In groups A and B, the rats were made the SCI models and were treated by subarachnoid injection of ChABC and saline; in group C, the rats were not treated as a control.
