Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2010;17(6):499-501
Objective To investigate the discharge outcome and its clinical influential factors of acute poisoning in children, and to provide the clinical references for prevention. Methods Questionaire about acute poisoning in children made by the research group,the hospitalized children and the influential factors were analyzed according to the outcome. Results Among 168 cases of acute poisoning hospitalized children,the curative rate was 80.95%, 16 cases(9.52%) were improved,6 cases (3.57%)were quitted,1.20% was ' not curative' and 4. 76% died. The factors including age,treatment time, route of entry, varieties of poison, medical examination of admission were statistically associated with the discharge outcome.Conclusion The outcome can be improved through an intensive nurse of the children under the age of three and early treatment. The cases who were not poisoned by the invasion of gastrointestinal tract,paraquat poisoning,and those with abnormalities of breathing, pupilla, awareness in medical examination of admission would have poor discharge outcomes, and should be monitored closely and treated timely.

Objective:
To understand the relationship between mental health status and vision-related quality of life( VRQL ) of students with moderate and high myopia, and to provide basis for the optimization of VRQL.
Methods:
Using convenient sampling method, the 8-18 years old students with moderate and high myopia were selected from Sichuan, Chongqing and Zhejiang. The mental health status and VRQL of students with moderate and high myopia were evaluated with Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Quality of Life Scale for Ametropia. The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for VRQL.
Results:
A total of 360 questionnaires were sent out and 354 were effectively recovered, with an effective rate of 98.33%. There were 116 ( 32.77% ) boys and 238 ( 67.23% ) girls; the median age was 16.65 years old. There were 211 ( 59.60% ) cases of moderate myopia and 143 (40.40%) cases of high myopia.There were 141 ( 39.83% ) found to be anxious and 176 ( 49.72% ) depressed. The median score of Quality of Life Scale for Ametropia was 64. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that sex ( β'= -0.179 ), diopter ( β'= 0.208 ), eyesight with glasses ( β'= -0.229 ) and anxiety ( β'= 0.439 ) were influencing factors for VRQL.
Conclusion
The mental health problems of the students with medium and high myopia are prominent; anxiety has a significant impact on the VRQL of the students.

Caveolae are specialized lipid rafts that form flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane. Many researches show that caveolae are involved in cell signaling and transport. Caveolin-1 is the major coat protein essential for the formation of caveolae. Recently, several reports indicated that the other caveolae-associated proteins, Cavins, are required for caveola formation and organization. It's worth noting that Cavin-1 could cooperate with Caveolin-1 to accommodate the structural integrity and function of caveolae. Here, we reviewed that the relationship between Cavins and Caveolins and explore the role of them in regulating caveolae.
