Cough is a common respiratory symptom in children.To evaluate severity of cough and the quality-of-life in children with chronic cough,cough scores,generic questionnaires and cough-specific health-related quality of life questionnaires have been developed.Different questionnaires have their own particular features,recently the validity and reliability of the cough-specific health-related quality of life questionnaires are supposed to be high in assessing quality of life,and have been proved to be quite valid and reliable tools.Studies have shown that chronic cough not only affects physical status in children,but also seriously affects their psychological health,social activities and family life negatively.Therefore,evaluating severity of cough and impacting on quality of life contributes to the clinical development of appropriate interventions.

The normal value of parameters of saccade, smooth pursuit and optokinetic nystagmus has been detected by recording the electro-oculograph in 29 healthy subjects.The results are as follows: 1.The reaction time of saccade is 259.04? 74.19,the mean velocity is 216.83?87.51/s in 15? target amplitude.No statistical significance has been found between sexes, but the reaction time is obviously longer in pre-puberty group.2.For smooth pursuit in 40% target velocity, gain is 0.976?0.08, phase lag is 3.95?7.69s,moothness is 0.925?1.49.No statistical significance has been found between sexes.3.In analysing the sequential process of saccade and smooth pursuit, it can't observed the tendency of decrement in latency.4.The gain of OKN in 14?/s velocity is between 0.689-0.808, the gain decreases following the increase of target velocity.The symmetry of OKN is 3.54?15.04% and there are 81.58% of OKN belonging macula type in healthy people.5.When the target velocity is in close each other,the velocity of fast phase of OKN is in close with the velocity of saccade.

Objective] To analyse the course of treatment based on differentiation of signs of Hashimoto thyroiditis combined with many diseases, offering treating thought and medication experiences. [Method] Trace back and state the relative documents about the general conditions, diagnosis and therapy, symptoms-pointed treatment of 1 case of Hashimoto thyroiditis combined with many diseases, introducing Pro. Wumin's clinical experience in treating the patient. [Result] The patient was early or late diagnosed as fatness, hyperlipemia, hyperinsulinemia, sub-clinical Hypothyrea, thyroid nodule and type-2 diabetes, Pro. Wumin combined TCM with WM, the patient was control ed the diseases and kept stable. [Conclusion] Combination of TCM and WM treating Hashimoto thyroiditis accompanied with diseases above has good cure effect, the patient is satisfied with the improvement and result.

Pediatric acute liver failure has a high mortality.Liver transplantation is the only definite treatment.Extracorporeal liver support can be employed as a strategy for bridging to transplantation or recovery.There are three types of device for temporary support:biological,non-biological (also called artificial) and bio-artificial (hybrid techniques).Early non-biological device including hemodialysis,hemoperfusion/plasma perfusion and plasmapheresis have improved biochemical efficacy,but there are little data for clinical end points.Continuous blood purification and the combination of various non-biological methods such as the molecular adsorbent recirculatory system and Prometheus(R) are new extracorporeal blood purification therapy.The results of many experimental and clinical trials have improved the efficacy of the above mentioned methods.

Objective To study the effect of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) polymorphism on serum lipids and the relationship between apolipoprotein E polymorphism and coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods Polymerize chain reaction (PCR) and HhaI digestion were used for the detection of apolipoprotein E genotype on 71 patients with CHD and 69 control subjects.Results The frequencies of apolipoprotein E4 allele and E3/4 genotype were obviously increased in CHD group than in control group (P<0.01,P<0.05). Conclusion The apolipoprotein E polymorphism is related to the occurrence of coronary heart disease; apolipoprotein E4 allele is one of the most important hereditary factor for the occurrence of CHD.

Objective: To assess the effect of Linghuang powder ( LHP) in treating acute nonspecific lower urinary tract infection (ANLUTI) with l ower-Jiao damp-heat syndrome and evaluate its safety. Methods: A randomized cont rolled design was adopted. Four hundred and fourteen patients were allocated to LHP treatment group, control group and open treatment group. Results: The marked ly effective rate of short-term treatment with LHP was 71.78%, and the total effective rate was 92.02%, the total rates of im proving urine routine and urine bacterium were 95.21% and 79.37% respectively in LHP treatment group. Conclusion:The effect of LHP for ANLUTI with lower-jiao damp-heat syndrome is better than that in the control group (P<0.01).

Objective To analyze the diagnostic approach on hepatolenticular degeneration combined with thin basement membrane nephropathy.Methods A girl presented with microscopic hematuria, liver dysfunction and hypocomplementemia was diagnosed with hepatolenticular degeneration combined with thin basement membrane nephropathy, her clinical data were summarized and analyzed retrospectively.Results A ten years old girl presented with microscopic hematuria and liver dysfunction for a year, dysarthria for a month, and combined with hypocomplementemia but without proteinuria. Renal biopsy showed thin basement membrane nephropathy. Ceruloplasmin was 23.10 mg/L and urinary copper concentration was 120μg, respectively, ocular slit lamp examination showed Kayser-Fleischer ring, cranial MRI showed preternatural signal in both basal and putamen nucleus, mutation analysis showed homozygous mutations in ATP7B and heterozygous mutation in COL4A3 gene,respectively.Conclussion Hepatolenticular degeneration should be suspected in those cases with persistence microscopic hematuria, liver dysfunction and hypocomplementemia.

Electrical potential difference (PD) was measured across the wall of reverted small intestinal saes of mice. The effect of glycyrrhizic acid on transmural potential related to Na+ and glucose transport were investigated. It was found that both zhigancao (100g/L ) and glycyrrhizic acid (2. 5mmol/L ) decreased the PD (P＜0.01).According to the theory of active transport of glucose, we inferred that zhigancao and glycyrrhizic acid possibly produce an inhibitiory effect on Na+. K+-ATP ase,resulted in a blocking effect on sodium channel.

Purpose:To eveluate the effect of liver function after TIPSS.Materials and methds:Ananalysis of 17 cases with laboratory data to study the liver function changes after TIPSS (transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunts).Results:There were 35 percent of cases whose liver function were worse than before,the others showed no change or better after TIPSS. Couclusion:It was important to choose the cases strictly before TIPSS so as to reduce the compli- cation and improve the survival rates.Although some cases liver function went worse after TIPSS but only temporarily.TIPSS can reduce bleeding retes effectively,thus simultaneously seve the lives.It is worthy to extend this procedue.

Objective\ To determine the distribution of the sympathetic postganglionic neurons innervating the uterus of uterine tube in hens. Methods\ CB\|HRP was injected into the wall of the uterus(shell gland)of hens. Results\ The hens uterus was innervated by the bilaterally sympathetic postganglionic neurons from T\-1 to LS\-\{13\} segments of the sympathetic trunk,splanchnic and adrenal ganglia.CB\|HRP labeled neurons in the left side were prominant.In the sympathetic trunk,a good lot of labeled neurons were accummulated in the segments both T\-5\|LS\-2 and LS\-8\|LS\-\{12\}. The greatest concentration of the neurons was in T\-7 and LS\-\{10\}. Conclusion\ The hen's uterus was innervated by the bilaterally sympathetic ganglionic neurons although it was the unilateral organ.\;
