Several of the genetic models and environmental risk factor models were used in the animal model study in autism.The BTBR T+ Itpr3tf(BTBR) mice are an inbred strain and have emerged as strong candidates to serve as models of a range of autism-relevant behaviors, showing deficiencies in social behaviors and reduced or unusual ultrasonic vocalizations as well as increased repetitive self-grooming.There are increasing investigations targeted to ameliorating the behavioral phenotypes of autism in BTBR mice.This review briefly summarizes the advance in the research on the BTBR mice model of autism.

Objective To analyze the possible risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD),and to provide clues to its etiology and prevention.Methods A matched case-control study,including 91 cases of PD and 364 controls,was carried out in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital.Subjects completed an interviewer administered questionnaire about some putative risk factors.Multivariable conditional Logistic regression model was used to analyze the associated factors for PD.SAS 8.0 was used to analyze the data.Results 6 risk factors were found significantly associated with PD.The odds ratio (OR) of Parkinson's disease was 5.421 (95％CI:1.272-23.103) for family history,3.330 (95％CI:1.268-8.741) for rural living more than 10 years,2.495 (95％CI:1.044-5.961) for maternal smoking during pregnancy,1.607 (95％ CI:1.224-2.112) for maternal age more than 37 years,3.673 (95％CI:1.766 7.643) for history of drinking alcohol,2.147 (95％CI:1.279 3.602) for less physical exercising.Conclusions PD is a disease affected by the interaction of genetic and environmental factors,and the risk factors should be intervened selectively.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of restless leg syndrome (RLS) among male elders.Methods A case-control study between 148 old male RLS patients (case group) and 155 non-RLS male elders (control group) was conducted to investigate the risk factors of RLS.The general demographic data (age,education level,marital status,etc.),lifestyle (including physical exercise,smoking and alcohol) and past medical history were compared between two groups.Univariate analysis and non-conditional multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted by SPSS 13.0 software.Results In univariate analysis:there was significant difference in history of Parkinson disease between two groups [8.8％ (13/148)vs.3.2％ (5/155)] (P ＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in smoking,alcohol,physical exercise,history of diabetes mellitus and history of peripheral nerve disease between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The serum creatinine in case group was higher than that in control group [(103.92 ± 32.07) μ mol/L vs.(85.35 ± 36.14) μ tmol/L] (P =0.000),and there was no significant difference in systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,hemoglobin,fasting blood glucose between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that after adjusting for potential confounders,history of Parkinson disease and peripheral nerve disease,and serum creatinine was the independent risk factors of RLS among male elders.The values of OR(95％ CI) were 5.68(1.046-30.846),4.13(1.109-15.368),1.02(1.014-1.036),respectively.Conclusion Histories of Parkinson disease and peripheral nerve disease and serum creatinine are the independent risk factors of RLS among male elders.

Objectives To investigate the clinical feature of Parkinson's disease (PD) with restless leg syndrome (RLS) and the pathogenesis of RLS. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional and control study. The case group concluded 31 PD with RLS patients, meanwhile 39 PD patients were selected as the control group. Clinical history, clinical manifestations, complications and laboratory examinations were compared respectively between the two groups. Results All the RLS symptoms did not appear in RLS patients until the PD symptoms came out. Significant differences were found in complications such as swallow disturbance, constipation and illusion, when we compared the two PD groups (P ＜ 0.05 ). Compared with the PD or healthy group, the level of serum ferritin and the H-reflex latency of tibial nerve were significantly decreased in PD with RLS group ( P＜0.05). Conclusions Secondary RLS is a complication of PD.Deficiency of iron and decreased inhibition function of spinal cord may lead to the occurrence of RLS in PD patients. When their motor symptoms are serious and complications are more common, PD patients are more possible to have RLS symptoms.

Objective To investigate the impact of multi-drug transporters including P-glycoprotein (PGP) and multi-drug resistance associated protein (MRP) on concentration of lamotrigine in the extracellular fluid in hippocampus of epilepsy rat models induced by pilocarpine, and to deduce the multi-drug resistance mechanisms in refractory epilepsy. Methods The epilepsy rat models were established by repeated administration (by ip) of pilocarpine. A microdialysis probe was placed into the hippocampus of the epileptic rats and dialysate was collected at five time-points from 30--150 minutes after systemic injections of lamotrigine (10 mg/kg). The concentration of lamotrigine in the extracellular fluid in the hippocampus was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Then PGP inhibitor verapamil and MRP inhibitor probenecid was added individually through microdialysis probe and the concentration of lamotrigine was detected again. Results Compared with control group (0. 41 ± 0. 10 in 60 minutes, 0. 50 ±0.04 in 90 minutes, 0. 39 ±0. 09 in 120 minutes and 0. 30±0.06 in 150 minutes), verapamil significantly increased the concentration of lamotrigine in extracellular fluid of the hippocampus 60--150 minutes (0. 65 ±0. 11, 0. 84 ± 0. 09, 0. 70± 0. 09 and 0. 58 ± 0. 08 respectively) after injection (F value were 5.01, 8.61, 10. 23 and 7.89, all P < 0. 05) and probenecid also enhanced the concentration of lamotrigine 90--150 minutes (0. 75 ± 0. 09, 0. 58±0. 10 and 0. 49±0. 07) after injection (F = 6. 58, 4. 56, 4. 75, all P < 0. 05). Conclusions Penetration of lamotrigine through blood-brain barrier in pilocarpine induced epilepsy rats is restricted by PGP and MRP, resulting in decreased concentration of lamotrigine in the extracellular fluid of the hippocampus. Therefore, increasing expression of PGP and MRP in brains of epilepsy patients might be an important mechanism involved in multi-drug resistance in refractory epilepsy.

Objective To study the effect of inhibitors of the multidrug transporters including P-glycoprotein (PGP)and multi-drug resistance-associated protein(MRP)on the regulation of concentration of oxcarbazepine in the extra-cellular fluid of the hippocampus after pilocarpine induced seizures in rats.To investigate whether oxcarbazepine are sub-strate for PGP and MRP and whether brain expressions of PGP and MRP are involved in muhidrug resistance mechanisms of refractory epilepsy.Methods The epileptic rats model were established by repeated peritoneal injection treatment with pi-locarpine.Thirty-two Wistar rats were divided into four groups:control group,pilocarpine epileptic model group,verapamil treated group and probenecid treated group.At 30,60,90,120 and 150 min following systemic injection of oxcarbazepine (80 mg/kg),dialysate was collected and the concentration of oxcarbazepine in the extracellular fluid of hippocampus was determined by microdialysis and high-performance liquid chromatography technique.Results After systemic injection of oxcarbazepine,the concentration of oxcarbazepine in extracellular fluid of the hippocampus during 90～150 min(1.26±0.09、0.93±0.10)were much higher in verapamil treated group than in pilocarpine epileptic model group(0.87±0.06、0.66±O.04)(P<0.05)and the concentration of oxcarbazepine in the hippocampus during 60～150 min(1.07 4±0.11、1.32±O.13、1.02±0.10、0.87±0.08)were higher in probenecid treated group than in pilocarpine epileptic model group (0.81±0.08、0.87±0.06、0.66.4±0.04、0.58±0.06)(P<0.05).Conclusions Oxcarbazepine are substrates for PGP and MRP and,penetration of oxcarbazepine through blood-brain barrier are restricted by PGP and MRP.Increased expres-sions of PGP and MRP in brain maybe involved in the mechanisms of multidrug resistance of refractory epilepsy.

Objective: To explore the prevalence of body weight control behaviors (BWCB) among middle school students in Jiangsu province. Methods: The database was established part from the surveillance of adolescent common disease and health related factors in Jiangsu province in 2017 and analysis were carried out to describe the prevalence rates of four basic BWCB and their comorbidity. Results: Among 18 855 investigators, 75.8% middle school students reported having taken at least one kind of BWCB within 30 days before investigation, the report rates of BWCB of middle school students among male and female were 77.3% and 74.3%(P<0.01), showed decreasing tendency from grade 1 of junior middle school to grade 3 of senior middle school (Kendall’s tau-c=-0.10, P<0.01), those of malnutrition, normal body weight, overweight and obesity were 57.2%, 72.8%, 83.8%, 86.7% respectively and showed increasing tendency(Kendall’s tau-c=0.13, P<0.01). Reported rate of Changing diet structure, physical exercise, reducing diet and taking slimming drug prevalence were 58.7%, 61.0%, 17.9%, 2.6%, orderly. There are 15 combinations of BWCB based on those 4 kinds of behavior. In the highest five types list ,changing diet structure & physical exercise (35.2%) was the most common type, and followed by physical exercise(13.0%), Changing diet structure(9.2%), Changing diet structure & physical exercise & reducing diet(8.6%), Changing diet structure & physical exercise & reducing diet(3.4%), others 6.5%. The proportions of top five kinds of BWCB among middle school students taken BWCB were 46.4%, 17.1%, 12.2%, 11.3%, 4.5%, respectively, accounting for 91.5%. The probabilities of different types of BWCB were similar between urban and town(χ2=9.13, P=0.10), different among sex(χ2=351.17, P<0.01), districts(χ2=140.20, P<0.01), school type and nutrition status(χ2=343.95, 309.62, P<0.01). Conclusion Some overweight or obesity students report on control body weight, while some report taking medicine and reducing diet behavior. Health education on healthy body weight should be implemented for middle school students to cultivate healthy body image so as to keep healthy body weight.

Ischemic stroke is the most common cerebrovascular disease with high morbidity and mortality. Neuroimaging examination has important clinical value in the diagnosis， differential diagnosis of stroke and the selection of treatment options， but it has certain limitations in monitoring the progress of post-stroke cerebral ischemia and evaluating prognosis. Both transcranial Doppler （TCD） and quantitative electroencephalogram （QEEG） have the characteristics of non-invasive， easy bedside and dynamic monitoring， and have high application value in clinical evaluation of cerebrovascular diseases and brain function status of patients. This article reviews the application value of TCD and QEEG in the prognosis evaluation of ischemic stroke， in order to provide some references for the effective evaluation of clinical prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke and for future research directions.
