Objective:To research the risk factors of developing Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD).Methods:Among 427 students in an elementary school in Changsha, we screened out thirty-four children with ODD by the criteria of DSM-IV. They and other thirty-four normal children from the same school were included in the case-control study. Education levels, jobs and Cartel 16 Personality Factors (16PF) were filled out by their parents. Combined Raven's Test (CRT) was used to evaluate children's intelligence.Results:The prevalence rate of ODD in children increased with the decrease of their father's and mother's education level (for father's education level form advanced education, secondary education to primary, the rate increased from 6.6%,7.2% to 12.0%) and (for mother, 5.3%,7.5%,10.6%). The rate of ODD was highest in children with father and mother doing small business (16.7% and 16.5%, ?~2=12.67~12.68,P

Objective :To explore the behavior characters of children diagnosed as ODD with ADHD symptoms. Methods: The diagnosis of ODD was made according to the ICD-10 criteria . 40 Children having ODD with ADHD symptoms (combined group ) and 22 Children having ODD but without ADHD symptoms (ODD group) were collected from outclinics. The parents of all subjects completed Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and a family information list. Results: The onset and help-seeking age of the combined group were younger than that of ODD group. They had more disobey, attacking, and extroversive behaviors. Their fathers were more agitative. Parents of the combined group used more beating and scolding in parenting. Conclusion: ODD children with ADHD symptoms had more behavior problems and incur worse parenting style. Their family need more help in early age.

Objective To observe the effects of therapy of supplementing spleen to strengthen lung on patients with adenomatous colonic polyps (ACP) after endoscopic removal . Methods One hundred ACP patients with spleen deficiency and dampness blended with blood stasis were randomly divided into 2 groups after endoscopic removal, 50 cases in the treatment group and 50 cases in the control group. Both groups were treated with diet and behavioral therapy, and the treatment group was simultaneously given oral use of modified Shen Ling Baizhu Powder plus self-moxibustion of bilateral acupoint Zusanli point. After treatment for 6 months and 1.5 years, all of the patients were asked to do the examination of colonoscopy, body mass, body mass index (BMI), and triglyceride (TG). Results (1) After treatment, the mean overall symptom scores of the two groups were improved (P < 0.01 compared with those before treatment) , and the improvement of the treatment group was superior to that of the control group(P < 0.01).(2) After treatment for 6 months and 1.5 years, the recurrence rate of ACP in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group(P < 0.05).(3) After treatment for 6 months and 1.5 years, the body mass, BMI and TG of the treatment group were significantly different from those before treatment(P<0.05), while the control group showed no significant changes(P > 0.05). The effect of the treatment group on improving body mass, BMI and TG was better than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The therapy of supplementing spleen to strengthen lung is effective on relieving symptoms of ACP patients, and also has an effect on decreasing BMI and TG as well as the recurrence of ACP after endoscopic removal.

OBJECTIVE To explore the protective effect of polysaccharides from Salvia Chinensis Benth. (PSSC) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and D- galactosamine (GalN)- provoked mouse acute liver failure (ALF) and the possible molecular mechanism. METHODS Kunming mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal control, model, model+PSSC 30 and 100 mg·kg- 1 groups. PSCC was given once a day and for a week. To establish an ALF model, mice of model and PSSC groups were ip injected with LPS 10 μg·kg-1 and GalN 700 mg·kg-1 at the end of PSSC treatment. The microscopic structure of the liver was detected by HE staining. Serum and hepatic biochemical parameters of glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic- pyruvic transaminase (GPT), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH) were detected by colorimetric methods. The relative content of hepatic reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by DCFH-DA fluorescent probes. Levels of cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β(IL-1β) and IL- 6 in the serum and liver were detected by ELISA. Activity of caspase 3 in liver homogenates was detected by aspase 3 activity assay kit. RESULTS Compared with normal control group, in the liver of model group, hepatocytes were arrayed in disorder, cytoplasm of hepatocytes shrank, and boundaries between cells were fuzzy, the infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells and tissue hemorrhage could be detected, pathological scores were elevated significantly (P<0.01), levels of MDA and ROS in the liver of ALF model mice were elevated to 2.2 and 4.3 times that of the normal control, respectively (P<0.01), the level of GSH decreased to 51% (P<0.01), and the activities of SOD, CAT and GSH- Px declined to 74%, 36% and 42%, respectively (P<0.01). Levels of TNF- α, IL- 1β and IL- 6 in the serum and liver of model group were increased (P<0.01), and caspase 3 activity was increased to 5.3 times that of the normal control (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the number of surviving mice in PSSC groups increased, liver pathological scores declined (P<0.01), levels of MDA and ROS increased (P<0.01), levels of GSH, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the liver and serum declined (P<0.01), and caspase 3 activity decreased (P<0.01). CONCLUSION PSSC is able to alleviate LPS and GalN-induced ALF in mice. Inhibition of hepatic oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and cell apoptosis is possibly implicated in the protective effect of PSSC.
