Objective To investigate the value of platelet, serum sodium and serum creatinine levels in the prognosis of patients with liver failure. Methods The clinical data of 155 patients with liver failure were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were divided into improvement survival group (87 cases) and deterioration died group (68 cases) according to the prognosis. The hospitalization time of every patient was divided into 4 roughly equal time period, and observed at 5 points of time:T1-T5. The levels and abnormal rates of platelet, serum sodium and serum creatinine were compared. Results The T3 - T5 serum creatinine levels in deterioration died group were significantly higher than those in improvement survival group: (102.14 ± 75.67) μmol/L vs. (78.21 ± 26.68) μmol/L, (116.45 ± 110.64)μmol/L vs. (78.77 ± 29.25) μmol/L, (161.43 ± 153.23) μmol/L vs. (76.40 ± 27.26) μmol/L, and the T1 - T5 serum sodium and platelet levels were significantly lower than those in improvement survival group:(135.05 ± 6.24) mmol/L vs. (137.52 ± 5.26) mmol/L, (137.01 ± 4.99) mmol/L vs. (139.00 ± 3.89) mmol/L, (134.80 ± 16.74) mmol/L vs. (139.15 ± 3.77) mmol/L, (134.40 ± 11.69) mmol/L vs. (138.30 ± 8.75) mmol/L, (133.30 ± 8.93) mmol/L vs. (139.01 ± 9.10) mmol/L, and (122.46 ± 72.59) × 109/L vs. (149.70 ± 71.70) ×109/L, (110.18 ± 65.10) × 109/L vs. (152.09 ± 82.79) ×109/L, (107.32 ± 70.49) ×109/L vs. (169.32 ± 100.65) ×109/L, (97.06 ± 58.15) ×109/L vs. (183.57 ± 112.68) ×109/L, (94.66 ± 57.00) × 109/L vs. (191.36 ± 118.64) ×109/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The abnormal rates of T3-T5 serum creatinine, T2 - T5 serum sodium and T1 - T5 platelet in deterioration died group were significantly higher than those in improvement survival group, the serum creatinine: 22.06%(15/68) vs. 6.90% (6/87), 27.49% (19/68) vs. 8.05% (7/87) and 42.65% (29/68) vs. 10.34% (9/87), the serum sodium: 32.35% (22/68) vs. 13.79% (12/87), 39.71% (27/68) vs. 14.94% (13/87), 48.53% (33/68) vs. 12.64%(11/87) and 60.29%(41/68) vs. 11.49%(10/87), the platelet:45.59%(31/68) vs. 21.84%(19/87), 55.88% (38/68) vs. 24.14% (21/87), 54.41% (37/68) vs. 25.29% (22/87), 55.88% (38/68) vs. 21.84%(19/87) and 61.76% (42/68) vs. 20.69% (18/87), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Abnormal rate of platelet was highest in each time point. Conclusions In the course of pathological changes in deterioration and dead patients, the platelet is the first and most easily affected compare with serum sodium and serum creatinine; the platelet may be a sensitive marker for predicting clinical outcome in patients with liver failure.

Objective:To explore the correlation among childhood trauma, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and implicit and explicit memory in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD).Methods:Fifty-two OCD patients were enrolled, and the childhood trauma was investigated by using the childhood trauma questionnaire short-form(CTQ-SF). The degree of obsessive-compulsive symptoms was assessed by using the Yale-Brown obsessive symptoms scale (Y-BOCS). In addition, the abilities of implicit memory and explicit memory were tested by vocabulary perception speed tasks and vocabulary recognition tasks.According to the scores of CTQ-SF, the patients were divided into abuse group( n=26) and neglect group( n=26). SPSS 22.0 software was used for t-test and Pearson correlation analysis. Results:Results of obsessive-compulsive symptoms, implicit memory, and explicit memory showed no differences between the abuse group and the neglect group( t=-1.959-1.839, P>0.05). The scores of obsessions symptoms(12.52±4.61) were positively correlated with the total scores of CTQ-SF (40.10±10.20)( r=0.331, P<0.05). On the subscale, the scores of obsessions were positively correlated with the scores of physical abuse(7.89±3.02), sexual abuse(6.47±2.28)( r=0.373, P<0.01, r=0.356, P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between the scores of physical abuse and the accuracy of explicit memory(68.75±13.33)( r=-0.281, P<0.05). The scores of physical neglect(8.98±2.67) was positively correlated with implicit memory response time(4 285.94±2 067.42)( r=0.314, P<0.05). Conclusion:Obsessions in patients with OCD are related to traumatic childhood experiences, especially physical abuse and sexual abuse.Physical trauma may influence the level of implicit and explicit memory in patients with OCD.

Objective:To explore the difference of brain structure between patients with early-onset depression with and without suicidal ideation and its relationship with the severity of depression.Methods:Totally 37 patients with early-onset depressive disorder with suicidal ideation and 23 patients with early-onset depressive disorder without suicidal ideation were examined by psychological assessment and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)from 2019 to 2020.Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) technology was used to compare the differences in brain structure between the two groups of subjects, and further analyze the relationship between the gray matter volume of the different brain areas and the severity of depression. The demographic and clinical data were analyzed by SPSS 24.0 statistical software package. The comparison between the two groups was performed by double sample t-test and chi square test. SPM8 software was used for VBM statistical analysis, and double sample t test was used for image analysis and comparison between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was performed between the mean gray matter volume of the two groups and the scores of HAMD-17 and Beck scale for suicide ideation(BSI). Results:Compared with the group without suicide ideation, the volume of gray matter in the right middle frontal gyrus(MNI: x, y, z=28.5, 33.0, 43.5, FWE correction for mass level, P<0.05)and left angular gyrus of the suicide idea group increased(MNI: x, y, z=-37.5, -73.5, 48.0, FWE correction for mass level, P<0.05). There was no significant correlation between the gray matter volume of the right middle frontal gyrus and the HAMD-17 scale, BSI scale in patients with early-onset depression ( r=0.073, r=-0.153, both P>0.05). Conclusion:There are structural differences in the right middle frontal gyrus and left angular gyrus between patients with early-onset depression with suicidal ideation and patients with early-onset depression without suicidal ideation, and there was no significant correlation between gray matter volume and depression severity.

AIM: In order to investigate the change of CD36 expression in atherosclerosis. METHODS: Chinese minipigs were fed a normal control diet (CD) or a high fat/high cholesterol diet (HFHC) for 12 months after common carotid artery injury induced by balloon denudation. Plasma total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TG) were determined by commercially enzymatic methods. CD36 mRNA and protein levels were determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting and immunohistochemistry, respectively. RESULTS: After HFHC for 12 months, plasma total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and triglyceride in HFHC minipigs were increased compared with the control. CD36 expression and aorta PPAR? in HFHC minipigs were upregulated. CONCLUSION: HFHC may induce hyper cholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia and upregulation of CD36 and aortic PPAR? expression.

Objective To obtain methamphetamine concentration profiles in saliva and urine samples of drug addicts and to screen the colloidal gold strip. Methods Methamphetamine concentration in saliva and urine samples of drug addicts was determined by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. The initial screening was obtained by colloidal gold strip test. The results were compared and analyzed. Results using the method of protein and fluid MRM scan method to detect direct precipitation, saliva is linear in the range of 1~100ng/mL, the linear correlation coefficient is 0.9987, the detection limit is 0.1ng/mL, the limit of quantification was 1ng/mL, the urine is linear in the range of 1~100ng/mL, the linear correlation coefficient is 0.9943, the detection limit is 0.5ng/mL, the limit of quantification was 1ng/mL. Saliva and urine samples diluted, the concentration in the linear range. Saliva and urine samples of four types of methamphetamine colloidal gold reagent strip were screened directly, and the results were judged visually. Conclusion the detection rate of colloidal gold strip is about 79%, the detection rate of saliva is about 81%, and the detection rate can be increased to more than 93% by using two reagent strips. Combined with the initial screening results and the instrument confirmation concentration, it can be found that the gray zone setting and sensitivity setting have certain influence on the detection rate, and it is suggested to improve the sensitivity to meet the needs of screening.

Objective:To explore the difference of theory of mind between adolescent depressive disorder patients with and without suicide attempt and its correlation with depression severity.Methods:From September 2019 to April 2021, totally 56 cases of attempted suicide adolescent depression patients(suicide attempted group), and 78 non-attempted suicide adolescent depression patients (non-suicide attempted group) and 23 healthy controls (healthy control group) with matched sex, age and years of education were included.The 17-item Hamilton depression scale(HAMD-17) and mini-international neuropsychiatric interview (M. I. N. I. ) were evaluated in all the subjects for depression severity and suicide trait related clinical psychological scale, theory of mind-picture sequencing task (ToM-PST) includes primary belief, primary false belief, secondary belief, secondary false belief, third-level false belief, sense of reality, reciprocity, deception and deception detection, which were used to test the theory of mind of the three groups. SPSS 25.0 software was used to statistically analyze the data, compare the differences of ToM of the three groups, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between ToM of the attempted suicide group and the clinical behavior scale.Results:The suicide attempted group was significantly lower in understanding primary false belief ((2.46±0.63) vs (2.87±0.46)) than the healthy control group( P<0.05), and the understanding of deception((2.84±0.42) vs (2.63±0.61)) was significantly higher than the non-suicide attempted group( P<0.05), and the non-suicide attempted group was significantly lower in understanding primary false belief((2.48±0.72) vs ( 2.87±0.46)) and ToM total scores((50.86±6.60) vs (54.91±5.12)) than the healthy control group(both P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the secondary false belief of the attempted suicide group were negatively correlated with the cognitive impairment( r=-0.267, P<0.05), and third-level false belief was negatively correlated with the cognitive impairment, retardation, and depressiontotal score( r=-0.331, r=-0.319, r=-0.269, all P<0.05). There was no significant correlation between primary belief, primary false belief, secondary belief, sense of reality, reciprocity, deception, deception detection, total score of picture ranking, total score of ToM and depression in suicide attempt group(all P>0.05). Conclusion:The ability to understand deception is different between depression adolescents with and without suicide attempt, and it is not correlated with the severity of depression.
