Objective To explore the empathy deficits of adolescents with different types of conduct disorder. Methods The participants included 65 adolescents ( who met the DSM-Ⅳ criteria for conduct disorder)ranging from 13 ~ 18 in age,and 195 normal adolescents ranging from 13 ~ 18 in age. All participants were assessed by revised Basic Empathy Scale. 65 patients were divided into 4 subgroups according to symptoms: destructive-nondestructive subgroups and overt-covert subgroups. Results (1) Scores of cognitive empathy were lower in patients than normal controls ( (29.86 ± 4.72) vs ( 32.09 ± 4.94), P < 0. 01 ). (2) There were significant differences in the levels of cognitive empathy between patients and controls (P<0. 01 ). Scores of cognitive empathy were lower in destructive subgroup than controls ( (29.76 ± 4.46) vs ( 32.09 ± 4.94) , P < 0.01 ). (3) There were significant differences in the levels of two dimensions and total scores of empathy between patients and controls (F=3.10 ~5.36, P < 0.05 ). Scores of cognitive empathy were lower in overt subgroup ( 29.22 ± 3.77 ) and covert subgroup (30.21 ± 5.17 ) than controls (32.09 ± 4.94) (P< 0.05, P<0.01 );and scores of affective empathy were lower in overt subgroup than covert subgroup ( (26.13 ±5.05) vs (29.50 ±4.16), P<0.05 ). Total scores of empathy were lower in overt subgroup (55.35 ±7.09) than covert subgroup (59.71 ±7.58) and controls (60.04 ±8.50 ) (P<0.05). (4) Logistic regression analysis showed that cognitive empathy was a protective factor for conduct disorders( OR = 0.43 ). Conclusion The cognitive empathy level of patients is significantly lower than normal students;and boys with different types of conduct disorder possess different empathic abilities when compared with healthy controls;and cognitive empathy is a protective factor for conduct disorder.

Aim To investigate how Farnesoid X re-ceptor (FXR),a nuclear hormone receptor,acts on neurological behaviors such as emotion,social behav-ior,memory and so on.Methods FXR’s function in central nervous system was evaluated by conducting a battery of behavioral tests including elevated plus maze test (EPMT),forced-swimming test (FST),social in-teraction test (SIT ), and passive avoidance test (PAT),and the contents of neurotransmitters were de-termined by the LC-MS /MS method in FXR knockout (KO)female mice and their wild-type controls.Re-sults FXR KO mice showed significantly increased immobility time in FST (P <0.01 ),and it showed in-creased tendency to enter the open arms in EMPT (P<0.01 ).The number of probing the open arms by FXR KO mice was more than that of the controls.Mo-reover,in SIT,FXR KO mice had remarkably in-creased sniffing interactions with the stranger mouse in the same cage (P <0.01 ).But in PAT,the latency for FXR KO mice to enter the dark chamber on the test day and the number of FXR KO mice to enter the dark chamber didn’t differ from those wild-type mice.In hippocampus,the contents of GABA,Glu,and NE were decreased prominently in FXR KO mice (P <0.05,P <0.05 and P <0.01 ,respectively)as well as the ratio of GABA to Glu (P <0.05).But in pre-frontal cortex,none of the neurotransmitters examined showed any difference between FXR KO mice and their controls.Conclusion FXR may be involved in main-tenance of the homeostasis of neural transmission in the central nervous system,thereby influences the emotion-al and social behavior in animals.

Whether melatonin not only inhibits the growth of H22 hepatocarcinoma cells but also induces apoptosis in vitro was assessed. The anti-proliferative effects of melatonin on tumor cells was observed by MTT assay and tumor cells growth curve assay. And the apoptosis of the cells was studied by acridine orange fluorescence assay and flow cytometry. The cell cycle of the tumor cells was also observed by flow cytometry. It was found that melatonin could significantly inhibit the growth of H22 hepatocarcinoma cells. Incubated with melatonin, chromatin condensation of the tumor cells was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Compared with control, the percentage of apoptotic cells was increased, and the proportion of G0/S increased but that of G2/M decreased. It was suggested that melatonin could directly inhibit the growth of H22 hepatocarcinoma cells by inducing apoptosis and extending the length of cell cycle of the tumor cells.

Objective To explore the experience of inpatients in self-safety management in order to take relevant measures to meet the needs of patients to promote the patient's participation in patient safety management. Methods In-depth semi-structured interviews were undertaken and a total of 11 inpatients in one first-class grade A hospital were interviewed.The acquired data by inter-viewing were analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological methodology. Result Three themes were extracted:(1)feeling poor commu-nication with medical staffs during participation; (2)no access to disease-related information; (3)inability to participate in self-safety management. Conclusions There are still many problems in the management and implementation of patients'participation in patient safety. The relevant departments should take appropriate measures to promote communication between medical staffs and patients, strengthen patient health education and optimize access to information for patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum thyrotrophin(TSH)and dyslipidemia in subclinical hypothyroid and euthyroid subjects. Methods An epidemiological study on diabetes and thyroid diseases was performed in Dadong community, Shenyang city, in 2007. 110 subjects with subclinical hypothyroidism(SCH)and 1 240 euthyroid subjects were enrolled in the study. Neither history of thyroid diseases nor administration of thyroid-related and lipid-regulating medicines were reported in these subjects. The levels of serum thyroid hormones, lipids, fasting plasma glucose(FPG), and insulin were determined. Results (1)Patients with SCH had significantly lower HDL-C levels than those who were euthyroid.(2)According to the guideline of treatment of adult dyslipidemia in China, the lipid profiles were each categorized. Mean TSH levels were higher in subjects in the dyslipidemia subclass than subjects in the normal subclass. The differences were significant in high LDL-C subclass in overweight individuals. In euthyroid overweight women, mean TSH levels were significantly higher in high LDL-C subclass. In the euthyroid population, TSH was positively associated with total cholesterol in overweight population. The association was not modified by the homestasis model assessment for insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)values.(3)TSH was associated positively with serum triglycerides and negatively with serum HDL-C in women. TSH was positively associated with total cholesterol in overweight population and positively associated with total cholesterol and LDL-C in overweight women after adjustment for age, sex, and body mass index. Conclusion Raised serum TSH seems to be a risk factor of dyslipidemia in subclinical hypothyroid and euthyroid subjects, which is independent of insulin sensitivity.

Objective:To evaluate the value of next generation sequencing (NGS) in the genetic testing of Lynch syndrome.Methods:Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins, including MutL homolog 1 (MLH1), PMS1 homolog 2 (PMS2), MutS homolog 2 (MSH2) and MutS homolog 6 (MSH6) in colorectal cancer, gastric cancer and endometrial cancer tissues collected from Shandong Provincial Hospital between 2016 and 2018. The genomic DNA of 45 patients who were suspected with Lynch syndrome was extracted from non-cancerous tissue paraffin samples, which were postoperatively confirmed by microscope. The mutations of 12 genes including MLH1 and MSH2 were detected using NGS. The germline mutant sites and significance were analyzed by bioinformatics technology and further confirmed by using Sanger sequencing.Results:The immunohistochemical results showed that the 45 cases of suspected Lynch syndrome included 22 cases of MLH1 and PMS2 deficient expression, 16 cases of MLH2 and MSH6 deficient expression, and 7 cases of MMR proteins normal expression. The NGS result showed that 28 cases of adjacent sample from colon cancer patients included 4 cases of MLH1 pathogenic mutation, 1 case of suspected MLH1 mutation, 2 cases of MLH2 pathogenic mutation, 2 cases of suspected MLH2 mutation. No MMR gene mutation was found in adjacent samples of 6 cases of rectal cancer, 6 cases of gastric cancer and 7 cases of colorectal cancer with MMR normal expression. One case of MLH1 or MHL2 pathogenic mutation and one case of MLH1 suspected mutation was detected in adjacent samples of 5 cases of endometrial cancer. Moreover, NGS also detected many other genes mutations and unreported gene mutation sites. Pathogenic and suspected MLH1 and MSH2 mutations were verified by Sanger sequencing.Conclusions:High-throughput NGS is a quick, accurate and reliable technique to identify gene variants in suspected Lynch syndrome patients. It has a wide application prospect for gene testing of tumors associated with Lynch syndrome.
