Objective To investigate effect of combination of rosuvastatin and dual antiplatelet therapy on the serum CRP, cerebral vascular event recurrence rate and carotid artery plaque in cerebral infarction patients.Method 60 cerebral infarction patients were seleted and divided into the control group and the experiment group by different treatment(n=30).Two groups were treated by corresponding drugs.The serum levels of IMT, CRP, plaque area, plaque number and the cases of recurrent cerebral vascular events after 6 month were compared after treatment a month.Results Compared with the control group after treatment,the serum CRP were lower(P<0.05),the recurrence rate of cerebral vascular events were lower(P<0.05),the IMT value, patch area and the number of carotid plaques were lower(P<0.05).Conclusion Rosuvastatin and dual antiplatelet combination therapy has good clinical effect for cerebral infarction patients,and have the clinical guiding significance.

Objective To test the antiproliferative and proapoptotic effect of Survivin small interfering RNA(siRNA) expression vector on lung adenocarcinoma cell A549 in vitro.Methods The Survivin-siRNA expression vector was constructed and conformed by sequencing.The inhibitory effect of Survivin-siRNA was tested by fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(FQ RT-PCR),Western blot and immunohistochemistry.The cell proliferation and apoptotic rate were assayed by tetrazolium bromide(MTT)colorimetry and flow cytometry.Results Survivin-siRNA expression vector was constructed and transfected into A549 cell.It effectively reduced mRNA and protein level of Survivin.Immunohistochemistry also showed lower expression of Survivin.The A549 cells transfected with Survivin-siRNA had a lower cellular growth rate than that of control group(P

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of after-school tutoring for school-age children on their emotions and behaviors, and to provide a basis for developing after-school tutoring and psychological support strategies for school-age children. MethodsFour elementary schools in a district of Shanghai were selected by simple random sampling method. Whole group sampling was conducted by class, and parents of students were surveyed by general questionnaire and the scale of strengths and difficulties. Information was collected on the basic conditions of children and families and the results were compared and analyzed. ResultsThis study showed that 88.26% of children attended extracurricular classes, of which 26.16% attended 3 or more classes, 42.5% attended cultural classes, 28.3% attended sports classes, and 59.8% attended art classes. Children who did not attend classes had higher pro-social scores. Children who attended reading class had lower scores for emotional problems that was a protective factor for emotional problems. Children who chose extracurricular programs in sports and reading also had lower overall scores for difficulties. Excessive use of electronic devices by school-age children on weekdays or weekends had a negative effect on emotional and conduct problem scores regardless of whether they chose extracurricular programs. It appeared that the choice of cultural programs, art programs and different levels of exercise intensity had no effect on children's emotions and behaviors. ConclusionFor children with low pro-social level, extracurricular classes should be carefully selected. For extracurricular classes, more reading and sports-related courses can be considered, which have positive effects on school-age children’s emotions and behaviors. Regardless of the choice of extracurricular classes, try to avoid excessive online classes.
