Objective To discuss peer education on the rehabilitation in schizophrenia recovery.Methods According to the order of admission,108 cases of hospitalized recovery of schizophrenia patients were divided into observation group and control group,each group in 54cases.The observation group received psychiatric conventional treatment and care at the same time add peer educations,the control group only accepted psychiatric conventional treatment and care.The observation group was given for a period of 20 weeks peer education.The nurse brief mental scale (N -BPRS),self -knowledge and treatment attitude questionnaire scale (ITAQ)were assessed in the two groups at the beginning,10 weeks,20 weeks.Results The difference of N -BPRS score between the two groups was not statistically significant (t =0.191,P =0.850).In the observation group,the scores had significant differences between 10 weeks and 20 weeks peer education (t =2.757,P =0.069;t =4.000,P =0.000).The ITAQ scores of the observation group at the beginning,20 weeks peer education were (11.22 ±3.55)points,(17.22 ±4.31)points, the difference was statistically significant (P <0.01).In control group,ITAQ scores before and after treatment were (10.84 ±5.19)points,(13.12 ±6.12)points,the difference was not statistically significant (P >0.05).Conclusion Schizophrenia convalescence patients accept peer education is helpful to rehabilitation.

Objective To investigate the expression of sLc22A1 8,an impfinted tumor suppressor gene,in breast cancer and explore the relationship between expression of SLC22A18 and the pathogenesis of breast cancer. Methods Real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction was applied on 46 cases of infiltrating duetal breast carcinoma(IDC),46 csges of corresponding adjacent noncancerous tissues and 20 benign breast tissues in order to detect mRNA expression of SLC22A18 gene.Protein expression was detected by immunohistochemistry.Statistical analysis was carried out to analyse the correlation between SLC22A18 gene expression and various elinical parameters in these breast cancer patients. Results SLC22A18 mRNA expression in 46 IDC tissues Was lower than that in all corresponding adjacent non-cancerous tissues(Z=-4.900,P＜0.01).SLC22A18 mRNA expression was lower in breast cancer eases,when compared with that in benign cases(Z=-3.182,P＜0.01).SLIC22A18 mRNA expression in 40 IDCs Was lower than that in 6 dutal carcinoma in situ(part of IDC)(Z=-2.022,P＜0.05).There was a decreased or completely diminished SLC22A18 protein expression in breast cancer.A significant difference of SLC22A18 protein expression was also observed in IDC and benign groups(P＜0.05).Neither mRNA nor protein expression of SLC22A18 gene correlated with clinieopathologic parameters such as age of patients,size of tumor,ehnical stage,pathologic subtype,histologlc grade or lymph node metastasis(P＞0.05).Condusion Decreased expression of SLC22A18 gene may play an important role in the carcinogenesis of IDC.

Objective To investigate the effect of neonatal hypoxic myocardial injury and bradycardia on cerebral hemodynamics and brain tissue regional oxygen saturation (rSO2),and to provide patho-physiological evidence for treatment of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in acute phase.Methods Ninety nine full-term newborns admitted into Department of Neonatology,Peking University First Hospital from December,2005 to December,2008 were enrolled in this study.There were 18 newborns with both myocardial injury and HIE (group 1),31 newborns with HIE but without myocardial injury (group 2) and 50 cases of neonatal jaundice (control group).From 3 to 7 days after birth,Doppler ultrasound was used to measure systolic velocity (Vs),diastolic velocity (Vd) and resistance index (RI) of the anterior cerebral artery; and brain tissue rSO2 was detected by near infrared spectroscopy.The differences among groups were compared by variance analysis and LSD test.Brain tissue rSO2 before and after treatment of 20 newborns with bradycardia for various causes were detected and the difference was compared by paired t test.Results (1) Vs of group 1,group 2 and the control group was (19.35±5.13),(29.35±4.28) and (32.62±7.47) cm/s respectively; Vd was (6.43±2.98),(11.21±3.16) and (11.50±3.03) cm/s; RI was 0.68±0.10,0.62±0.03 and 0.64±0.06; brain tissue rSO2 was (52.4± 2.8)％,(54.6±3.1)％ and (62.1±1.9)％.There were significant differences among the three group(F=29.999,19.393,5.283 and 137.952,P＜0.01).Vs,Vd and rSO2 of group 1 were lower than that of group 2 and the control group (P＜0.05).RI of group 1 was higher than that of group 2 and the control group (P＜0.05).Vs and rSO2 of group 2 were lower than that of control group,but there were no differences between the two groups in Vd and RI.(2) The brain tissue rSO2 of newborns with bradycardia after treatment was higher than that before treatment [(58.7±4.6)％ vs (50.9±3.2)％,t=6.239,P＜0.01].Conclusions The disturbance of cerebral hemodynamics and cerebral oxygenation in HIE newborns are aggravated by hypoxic myocardial injury.Stable heart rate might be very important to early treatment for HIE.

Objective To determine the prognosis and risk factors of neonatal cerebral infarction.Methods From January 2002 to December 2010,44 newborn infants were diagnosed with cerebral infarction by imaging examinations at Peking University First Hospital.The neurodevelopmental outcomes of these newborn infants were followed up and evaluated by clinical manifestations,Gesell development scale,cranial imaging,electroencephalogram and auditory evoked potential.Factors related to prognosis were analyzed with single and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis.Results Thirty-eight (86％) cases were followed up,and of these cases,five children died and the results of three were inconclusive due to small age (less than 6 months old).Among the remaining 30 children,neurodevelopmental outcome was normal in 15 cases and abnormal in the remaining 15 cases,thus,the incidence of sequelae was 50％ (15/30) and the mortality rate was 13％ (5/38).Of the 15 abnormal cases,all had cerebral palsy and movement retardation,eight cases had cognitive impairment,eight cases had epilepsy and five had visual impairment.The incidence of large cerebral infarction (more than one lobe) was 14/15,worse cranial imaging outcome (one month after treatment,cerebral infarction lesion still present or had expanded)was 13/15,and severe complications was 8/15 in the newborns with sequelae,which were higher than in those without sequelae (4/15,5/15 and 1/15,respectively) (x2=13.889,8.889 and 7.778,all P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that large cerebral infarction was a risk factor for sequelae (OR=38.500,95％C1:3.749-395.407,P=0.002),however,worse cranial imaging outcome (OR=8.563,95％CI:0.909-80.683,P=0.061) and severe complications (OR=18.024,95％CI:0.516-630.163,P=0.111) were not risk factors for sequelae.Cerebral infarction with middle cerebral artery injury had a high risk of movement retardation (OR=6.000,95％CI:1.172-3.725,P=0.025),and those with a large cerebral infarction were more likely to have epilepsy (x2=7.273,P=0.010).The incidence of large cerebral infarction in the newborn infants with cognitive impairment was 8/8,which was much higher than in those without cognitive impairment (46％,10/22),thus,infarct area may be related to cognitive ability (x2=7.273,P=0.010).Conclusions Neonatal cerebral infarction might result in many types of sequelae,with motor impairment being the most common form.A large cerebral infarction is more likely to result in abnormal neurodevelopmental outcome.

Objective To investigate the correlation between hypoglycemia and brain injury of newborns.Methods Medical records and follow-up data of 110 newborns with hypoglycemia (blood glucose level≤2.2 mmol/L) who admitted into neonatal department of Peking University First Hospital from December 2006 to December 2009 were studied.All patients were divided into 3 groups:no brain injury group,mild and severe brain injury group according to their clinical manifestation,cerebral radiological characteristics and cerebral functional tests.By using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and x2 test,the potential optimal blood glucose level and duration of hypoglycemia for predicting brain injury were confirmed.Multivariate Logistic regression was taken to determine independent predictors for brain injury.The analyzed factors included gender,preterm/small for gestational age,hyperbillirubinemia,fetal distress,asphyxia,infection,seizures and maternal hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy and hyperglycemia.Results Among the 110 hypoglycemia newborns,33 (30.0％) infants suffered from brain injury,of which 23 were mild and 10 were severe.Blood glucose ≤1.7 mmol/L had high specificity (73％) and sensitivity (60％)for predicting brain injury.When blood glucose≤ 1.7 mmol/L,the incidence of brain injury and severe brain injury was 43.6％ (24/55) and 18.2％ (10/55),which was higher than those [16.4％(9/55) and 0.0％ (0/55)] of patients whose glucose level ＞1.7 mmol/L(x2 =9.74 and 11.00,P＜0.01 respectively).Blood glucose ≤ 1.2 mmol/L had high specificity (100％) and sensitivity (81％) for predicting severe brain injury.When blood glucose ≤1.2 mmol/L,the incidence of severe brain injury was higher than that of the patients whose glucose level was higher than 1.2 mmol/L [34.5％ (10/29) vs 0.0％ (0/81),x2 =30.72,P＜0.01].Duration of hypoglycemia ≥12 h had specificity (100％) and sensitivity (36 ％) for predicting brain injury.When duration of hypoglycemia ＜12 h,the incidence of brain injury was lower than that of the patients whose duration of hypoglycemia≥12 h [21.4％ (21/98) vs 6/6,x2 =27.69,P＜0.01].Multivariate Logistic regression showed that fetal distress (OR=4.69,95％CI:1.47-14.97,P=0.009),glucose level≤1.2 mmol/L (OR =5.16,95％CI:1.56-17.03,P=0.007),duration of hypoglycemia≥12 h (OR=8 885 220 297.12,95％CI:0.00-∞,P =0.000) and maternal hyperglycemia (OR =3.34,95％CI:1.01-11.02,P=0.048) were independent risk factors for neonatal brain injury.Conclusions Low blood glucose level and prolonged hypoglycemia might induce injury of neurol system.Fetal distress and maternal hyperglycemia might increase the incidence of brain injury in newborns with hypoglycemia.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and medical cost of different revascularization strategies for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with multi-vessel disease (MVD).Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted. From January 2009 to June 2012, patients with AMI and MVD undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled. They were randomly assigned to group A [staged PCI for non-infarction related artery (non-IRA) within 7-10 days after AMI] and group B (subsequent PCI for non-IRA recommended only for those with evidence of ischemia). All of patients were given optimized medical therapy according to clinical guideline, and they were followed up for 24 months at regular intervals. Major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE) including recurrence of myocardial infarction and death due to cardiac ailments were recorded. Meanwhile, re-hospitalization from cardiac causes, recurrence of angina, heart failure, and re-PCI, number of stents, total hospital stay days, and total medical expenditure were recorded.Results A total of 428 patients accomplished the 24-month follow up. All the patients underwgennt PCI for non-IRA in group A (215 patients), while 62 patients in group B (213 patients) undergone PCI for myocardial ischemia, and 51 patients received non-IRA treatment. There was no significant difference in MACE incidence between group A and group B [8.4% (18/215) vs. 10.8% (23/213),χ2= 0.727,P = 0.394]. The difference of death rate due to cardiac causes (5.1% vs. 6.6%), recurrence of myocardial infarction (4.2% vs. 6.6%), and heart failure (4.2% vs. 7.0%) were not significantly different between groups A and B (allP> 0.05). The rate of recurrence of angina (14.4 % vs. 32.9%), re-hospitalization from cardiac causes (14.4% vs. 33.8%), and re-treatment of implanting stents (12.6% vs. 29.1%) were significantly lower in group A than group B (allP< 0.01), and the rate of revascularization was significantly higher in group A than group B (10.7% vs. 5.2%,P< 0.05). The total number of stents (610 vs. 366), mean number of stents per patient (2.83±0.91 vs. 1.72±0.91,t = 12.725,P = 0.000), and total cost per patient (kRMB: 63.7±12.6 vs. 51.5±12.3,t = 10.107,P = 0.000) in group A were significantly higher than those in group B. Total hospital stay days in group A was significantly less than group B (days: 8.21±2.45 vs. 9.89±3.23, t = 6.071,P = 0.000). Because non-IRA-vascular reconstruction rate was low in group B, the rate of usingβ-blocker and anti-anginal agents during the 24-month follow up in group B was significantly higher than group A [59.2% (126/213) vs. 47.0% (101/215),χ2= 6.371,P = 0.012; 56.3% (112/213) vs. 17.6% (36/215),χ2 = 64.704,P = 0.000]. Conclusions In patients with AMI and MVD undergone emergency PCI, staged PCI within 7-10 days for non-IRA cannot decrease the incidence of myocardial infarction and death due to cardiac causes, recurrence of angina and rehospitalization for cardiac causes was diminished, and it may increase the number of stents and medical cost significantly.

Objective To study the neurological prognosis of neonates with ventriculomegaly and its influencing factors.Method A retrospective study was conducted among neonates with ventriculomegaly in Peking University First Hospital from January 2013 to December 2015.A series of cranial ultrasonography were performed after birth and the Gesell development scale was conpleted after six months.x2 test and two-independent-sample t test were used for statistical analysis.Result Among 103 cases of ventriculomegaly,95 cases (92.2％) had mildly enlarged lateral ventricles and 8 cases (7.8％) significantly enlarged.83 cases received serial cranial ultrasound examinations after birth.The lateral ventricles of 9 patients (10.8％) bacame wider and 74 (89.2％) not.The Gesell development scales were completed in 65 cases 6 months after birth.Among them,8 patients with widening lateral ventricles got poor prognosis (100％).Among 57 patients without progressively widening lateral ventricles,6 (10.5％) had poor prognosis.The difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.001).No correlation was found between the severity of the lateral ventricle widening and the neurological outcome (P =1.000).There were 2 cases with other abnormalities,and 1 case got poor prognosis on follow-up.Conclusion Most neonatal ventriculomegaly patients have mild and isolated lateral ventricle enlargement.Most of them remain stable or gradually return to normal.The patients with progressively widening lateral ventricles are likely to have adverse neurological prognosis.

The bovine enterovirus (BEV) is a pathogen found the digestive tracts of cattle. Recently, the BEV was discovered in cattle in a province in China. A rapid and effective detection method for the BEV is essential. An assay was carried out using two specific primers designed to amplify a highly conserved sequence of the 3D gene. A recombinant plasmid containing the target gene 3D was constructed as a standard control. The limit of detection of the reaction was 7.13 x 10(1) plasmid copies/μL of initial templates, which was tenfold more sensitive than the conventional reverse-transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Moreover, the assay was highly specific because all negative controls and other viruses of clinical relevance did not develop positive results. Assay performance on field samples was evaluated on 44 (41 diarrhea and 3 aerosol) samples and compared with the conventional RT-PCR assay. Sixteen diarrhea samples were positive (16/41, 39. 02%) and 3 aerosol samples were positive (3/3, 100%). Preliminary results for clinical detection showed that the SYBR Green I real-time PCR assay was highly sensitive, specific and reproducible. The robustness and high-throughput performance of the developed assay make it a powerful tool in diagnostic applications for epidemics and in BEV research.
