Objective To investigate the relationship between transfusion transmitted virus (TTV)infection and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia,the effect of TTV infection on the liver function, and analyse the feature of nucleotide sequences in TTV ORF1.Methods Serum TTV DNA,which were from 58 neonates with high direct bilirubin(DB,including 5 with hepatitis Syndrome),92 ones with high indirect bilirubin(IB),and 85 normal ones,was detected using a nested polymerase chain reaction technique(nPCR),electropherosis and sequence analyse,and serum alanine amniotransferase (ALT)was determined in all neonates.Results In DB neonates,TTV DNA were detected in 7 neo- nates(12.1%,including 3 neonates with hepatitis syndrome);in IB and normal ones,1 neonate had positive TTV DNA(1.1% and 1.25),respectively.Even if there were point mutations in Guangdong's TTV,the homology of Guangdong's TTV(GD1-9)and Japanese TTV(N22)ranged from 87.1%~97.8% at nucleotide level.Conclusion TTV infection may be one of important pathogenesis resulting in neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and liver damage in such patients.Guangdong's and Japanese TTV isolates had the same genotype,some gene mutations maybe increase the pathogenicity in TTV.

Objective To investigate the effect of astragaloside,one of the active components of astragalus membranaceus,on myocardial nerve growth factor(NGF)expression in murine myocarditis model with coxsackievirus B(CVB_3).Methods One hundred Balb/c mice were randomly divided into 6 groups.Group A [n=10,treated with carboxymethylcellulose(CMC) 0.1 mL,ig,for 1 week] were served as normal controls group and group B(n=10,treated with 9% astragaloside 0.1 mL,ig,for 1 week)as high-dose control.Eighty infected mice treated with CMC and 1%,3%,9% astragaloside 0.1 mL,ig,for 1 week (n=20 in each group)were served as group C(myocarditic control group),D(low-dose intervention group),E(middle-dose intervention group),F(high-dose intervention group),respectively.The mice were killed and their hearts were removed after 14 days.The expression levels of NGF mRNA and protein in the myocardium were examined by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry,respectively.Results The mortality was significantly reduced in 9% astragaloside treated infected mice that was 10%(2/20)vs 45%(9/20)in group C(P
4.Sustained attention for the patients with mild cognitive impairment and mild Alzheimer's disease
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2004;10(3):136-138
ObjectiveTo deter mine the sustained attention function of the patients with mild Alzheimer's disease(AD) and mild cognitive impairment(MCI).Methods10 patients with MCI, 10 with mild AD and other 10 healthy elderly controls were tested with Continuous Performance Task(CPT) aimed to assess sustained attention. ResultsCompared with the normal controls, the mild AD patients reacted very more slowly(P<0.001), missed more targets(P<0.05), while that the MCI patients did was as well as the control group. ConclusionThe mild AD patients shows impairment in sustained attention function, but the MCI patients shows a preserved ability of sustained attention function.

BACKGROUND:Mobile-bearing prosthesis has advantages in theoretic design, in vitro kinematics and abrasion, but it remains unclear whether its clinical outcomes are better than fixed-bearing prosthesis at present. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the medium-term results of total knee arthroplasty using mobile-bearing prosthesis to provide clinical evidence for the choice of prosthesis. METHODS:The patients who suffered from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis and underwent total knee arthroplasty with PFC Sigma RP in Beijing Tongren Hospital from December 2006 to June 2009 were included in this study. The postoperative Knee Society Score, Knee Society Score Function Score, Patel ar Score and the Pain Score, range of motion, maximun flexion and extension angle were col ected and compared with pre-operation. The complications, such as infection, patel a clicking, polyethylene insert dislocation, and deep vein thrombosis were recorded after replacement. The anterior-posterior, lateral and Merchant position X-ray images were taken to evaluate the tibiofemoral alignment, radiolucent lines, and patel ar dislocation. Then, the results of other medium-term fol ow-up researches were compared with fixed-bearing arthroplasty. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Final y, 31 patients (45 knees) were fol owed up. The average age was 64.56±10.33 years, and fol ow-up period was 3.9-7.6 years. The postoperative scores, range of motion, maximun flexion and extension angle were improved obviously, but there were no differences with other medium-term fol ow-up researches. No radiolucent lines, prosthetic loosening or polyethylene insert dislocation was found. Lateral patel ar release was done, but no patel ar dislocation or subluxation appeared in al patients. Two patients (2 knees) accompanied patel a clicking. Results indicated that the medium-term clinical result was satisfactory. No patel ar dislocation or subluxation was found, although only lateral patel ar release was done. This may be the superiority of mobile-bearing arthroplasty.

Objective To explore the changes of weight,body mass index(MBI),serum glucose,serum insulin in sodium valproate(VPA)-treated children with epilepsy.Methods The study was carried out in 30 epileptic children treated with VPA for 3 months.Weight,height,serum glucose and insulin levels were conducted before and after VPA treatment.Serum insulin levels were detected by radioimmunoassay.Results After 3 months' treatment,body weight [(15.68?3.82)kg vs(19.64?4.75)kg,t=3.56 P0.05].Conclusions VPA therapy can make insuline weight,BMI,serum insulin increased and may lead to insulin resistance.Insulin resistance may be one of the reasons for weight gain in VPA-treated patients.

Objective The feasibility and the curative effect of bipolar hemiarthroplasty for hemiplegic side femoral neck fractures in elderly patients were evaluated.Methods The patients suffering from hemiplegic side femoral neck fractures and undergoing bipolar hemiarthroplasty in Beijing Tongren Hospital were followed-up during 2012-2015.The postoperative Harris Score and the complications such as infection,deep vein thrombosis and dislocation were collected.Results Totally 25 patients(25 hips)were followed-up.The average age was 70.1 years,and mean follow-up period was 24.3 months (10-42 months).The mean Barthel index score was higher (77.4 ± 14.7,ranging from 40-95 points) after operation than before operation[25.00 ± 5.95 (15-35 points)] with a statistically significant difference(t=-21.374,P<<0.05).The postoperative Harris Score was 83.5± 8.9(60-95 points).According to Harris score,the excellent and good rate was 80.0%.The patient's satisfaction rate was 88.0%.Conclusions Choosing proper prosthesis and fixing measure,and keeping the function and tension of short extorsion muscles can achieve the satisfactory results for hemiplegic side femoral neck fractures in elderly patients.
