Objective To improve the accuracy and completion rate of long range video electroencephalogram ( V-EEG) in children with epilepsy, strengthen the pediatric patients′coordination ability during V-EEG, and make the parents more satisfied. Methods Pediatric patients who were checked by long-range V-EEG from April 2014 to March 2015 were chronologically divided into experimental group ( n=169 ) and control group ( n =142 ) . The patients of experimental group were cared by unified nursing intervention while the patients of control group were implemented traditional nursing. Contrast was implemented between two groups according to leads and electrode off, sleep deprivation situation, completion of provocation test, rash and trauma. Results After the implementation of V-EEG monitoring nursing regulations, the incidences of leads off, artifact, failure of sleep deprivation, and trauma were lower than those of the control group (P<0. 05); the cooperation of children having hyperventilation increased in the experimental group with low failure rate of opening and closing eyes stimulation and flush stimulation (P<0. 05). The parent′s satisfaction increased from 78.87% to 94.08% (P <0. 01). Conclusions Standardized nursing can effectively improve the quality of V-EEG monitoring, decline the incidence of artifact, make the V-EEG report more accurate and completed, and promote parent′s satisfaction.

This paper presents a probability segmentation algorithm for lung nodules based on three-dimensional features. Firstly, we computed intensity and texture features in region of interest (ROI) pixel by pixel to get their feature vector, and then classified all the pixels based on their feature vector. At last, we carried region growing on the classified result, and got the final segmentation result. Using the public Lung Imaging Database Consortium (LIDC) lung nodule datasets, we verified the performance of proposed method by comparing the probability map within LIDC datasets, which was drawn by four radiology doctors separately. The experimental results showed that the segmentation algorithm using three-dimensional intensity and texture features would be effective.

BACKGROUND: The pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy is still not completely clear at present, and the theory of ammonia poisoning may be the most powerful, the mechanism for lactulose in decreasing ammonia is clearer, and there are many studies on hepatic encephalopathy treated by lactulose at home and aboard, but the comparative studies on the long-term and short-term treatment of lactulose and placebo control treatment are still in lack. OBJECTIVE: To given long-term and short-term treatment of lactulose to patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy, and compare the effect on the quality of life (QOL) of the patients with minimal hepatic encephalopa thy. DESIGN: A case-control observation. SETTING: Department of Geriatrics, Guangzhou First People's Hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Sixty patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy, who were abnormal in the number connection test (NCT), digital symbol test (DST) and/or evoked potential examination and cooperated with the treatment, were selected from the patients with cirrhosis treated in the De partment of Geriatrics of Guangzhou First People's Hospital between June 1998 and March 2002, and they were randomly divided into control group (n=20), short-term lactulose group (n=20) and long-term lactulose group (n=20). METHODS: All the patients were given vitamin B for 24 weeks, two tablets for each time, three times a day; besides, the patients in the short term lactulose group and long-term lactulose group were orally adminis tered with lactulose (15-90 mL per day) for 8 and 24 weeks respectively. They were assessed with WHOQOL-BREF at the end of 0, 8, 16 and 24 weeks respectively, the incidence rate of hepatic encephalopathy was observed, and the ammonia conc entration in blood was detected at the same period.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The changes of QOL and ammonia concentration in blood during the treatment were observed.RESULTS: During the treatment, one case in the control group lost to the follow-up, one case in the short-term lactulose group died from traffic accident, and two cases in the long -term group quitted because they could not endure the side effect of diarrhea, and totally 56 cases finished the treatment and entered the analysis of results. ① The incidence rate of hepatic encephalopathy at 6 months was 40%(8/20), 30%(6/20), 5%(1/20) in the control group, short-term lactulose group and long-term lactulose group respectively, and it was significantly lower in the long-term lactulose group than in the control group and short-term lactulose group (P ＜ 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the short-term lactulose group and control group (P ＞ 0.05). ② At 8, 16 and 24 weeks after treatment,the score of environment in QOL had no significant difference among the control group, short-term lactulose group and long-term lactulose group (P ＞ 0.05), but there were significant differences in the scores of physiology,psychology and social relationship (P ＜ 0.05); At 8 weeks, there were more obvious differences in the long-term lactulose group and short-term lactulose group than in the control group, but no significant difference between the long and short-term lactulose groups; At 16 weeks, there were more obvious differences in the long-term lactulose group than in the short-term lactulose group and control group, but no significant difference between the short-term lactulose group and control group; At 24 weeks, the long-term lactulose group had more improvements than in the control group and short-term lactulose group. ③ At 16 and 24 weeks after treatment, the ammonia concentrations in blood were significantly decreased in the long-term lactulose group as compared with the control group and short-term lactulose group.CONCLUSION: The long-term treatment of lactulose can improve the QOL of patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy, eventually reduce the incidence of hepatic encephalopathy and decrease the ammonia concentration in blood; However, the short-term treatment of lactulose could not.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the clinical features and incidence trends of hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) in Guangzhou First People's Hospital for 20 years.Methods The medical records of 1 362 patients,who were admitted to Guangzhou First People's Hospital with acute pancreatitis during January 1991 to December 2010,were reviewed and 99 patients met the HLAP criterion.These patients were divided into four groups according to years (1991 ～ 1995,1996 ～2000,2001 ～2005,and 2006 ～2010).The incidence and clinical features were compared among the 4 groups.Results Among the 99 patients,there were 61 males and 38 females,the mean age was (44 ± 12) years old,and young male was predominant in HLAP.HLAP accounted for 7.3％ of all AP patients,and the incidence was increased 1.5 times during the 20 years period (5.4％,5.7％,6.7％,and 8.3％ respectively).The serum amylase level was (513.3 ±462.7) mmol/L,TG level was (12.7 ± 7.0) mmol/L,Ranson score was (1.2 ± 1.1),CTSI score was 2.2 ± 1.1,incidence of SIRS was 36.4％,and the incidence of MODS was 18.2％,and the incidence of pancreatic pseudocyst was 5.1％,but the incidence and mortality of SAP was not changed with time.The incidence and mortality of SAP of HLAP were significantly higher than those of acute biliary pancreatitis (20.2％ vs 8.5％,6.1％ vs 2.8％).The rate of blood purification increased from 0 to 10.7％,and the hospital stay was decreased from 26 d to 14 d,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Incidence of HLAP is increased gradually,with a trend towards more severe disease,but the prognosis is improved.

Objective To investigate the testing capabilities of clinical transfusion laboratories in medical institutions in Beijing for the regulatory authorities to formulate administrative policies in this regard.Methods Experts assigned by Beijing Clinical Transfusion Quality Control Center made on-site inspections at the transfusion laboratories in medical institutions using quality control products.They recorded the complete testing process of the operators as well as the instruments,detection reagents in use and the testing results,with statistics and analysis made to the data so collected.Results The pass rate of these on-site inspections was lower than that of the external quality assessment.Some laboratories failed to complete the testing of the quality control products in time and the actual operations in some laboratories were inconsistent to the guidelines.55.9％ of level Ⅰ hospitals and 25.6％ of level Ⅱ hospitals were found with insufficient and inadequate instruments and process layout to meet the needs of clinical blood transfusion.Some of the technicians were found without sufficient trainings in their professional knowledge and basic skills,resulting in their poor competence against emergency cases and weakness in independent problem solving.In addition,the records of detection process and results were found to be substandard.Conclusions Transfusion laboratories in Beijing need to improve their testing capabilities in general.

Objective To verify the validity of the sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation method for lipid rafts from cerebral cortex. Methods Extract lipid rafts from cerebral cortex in mouse were extracted by the sucrose density gradi-ent ultracentrifugation method. The properties of lipid rafts were detected by Western blotting method, double enzyme and light scattering methods. HPLC MS/MS proteomics and bioinformatics were used to locate proteins of lipid rafts in cells. Re-sults Lipid rafts from cerebral cortex were provided with the model properties of lipid rafts such as high light scattering and cholesterol and high expression of Flotillin-1. HPLC MS/MS proteomics identified total 647 proteins. Most of these pro-teins were from plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, cytoskeleton and cytosol, however, there were 21% proteins among total 647 proteins were from nucleus, mitochondria and ribosomes. Conclusion The sucrose density gradient ultra-centrifugation method is a effective method to extract lipid rafts from cerebral cortex, however, the properties of mixture should be considered.

Objective To compare the strong ion gap (SIG) and liver and kidney function index predicting the prognosis of acute paraquat poisoning patients.Methods Retrospective study with a total of 148 cases from 2006 to 2013 who were diagnosed by paraquat poisoning,according to the prognosis they are divided into survival group and death group.Compared with the early SIG,ALT,AST,Cr,BUN index level to analyze with the odds ratio (ORs) and established ROC curve to conform which is more effective on the prognosis of patients with paraquat poisoning.Results The abnormal index of glutamic pyruvic transaminase (ALT) (x2=10.257,P =0.001),glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (AST) (x2=9.109,P =0.003),creatinine (Cr) (x2=10.257,P =0.021),blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (x2=10.257,P ＜ 0.01) indicated a higher risk of death than the normal index,SIG showed higher ORs for fatality than ALT,AST,Cr,BUN (P ＜ 0.05).In the ROC curve,the area under the curve of the SIG,ALT,AST,Cr,BUN on the prognosis of fatality were 0.822,0.708,0.724,0.603,0.625.Conclusions With early SIG and ALT,AST,Cr,BUN level increased,the risk of death will increase in paraquat poisoning patients,and SIG is a more effective marker than index of kidney and liver function on the prognosis of death.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of total saponins of Man medicine Thladiantha dubia root(TSTR)on the ex-pressions of CD3+,CD4+and CD8+ in spleen tissue of rats with type Ⅱ collagen-induced arthritis (CIA),and explore its mecha-nism in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(RA). METHODS:8 rats were taken as normal control group(NC group),the others 72 rats were injected mixture of bovine type Ⅱ collagen and Freund's complete adjuvant in tail and back to induce CIA model. The 50 modeled rats were randomly divided into model group(MC group),tripterygium polyglycoside(TG)group(12 mg/kg,posi-tive control),TSTR low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups (20,40,80 mg/kg),10 in each group. Rats in medicine groups were intragastrically administrated for 35 d,once a day;rats in NC group and MC group were intragastrically administrated equal volume of distilled water. Ankle swelling degree of rats was determined,arthritis indexes were calculated,HE staining was used to observe the lesions in synovial tissue,and immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+ in spleen tissue of rats. RESULTS:After 35 d of administration,ankle swelling degree,arthritis indexes,CD4+ expression in spleen tissue,and CD4+/CD8+ ratio in MC group were significantly higher than NC group (P<0.05 or P<0.01),expressions of CD3+, CD8+were significantly lower than NC group(P<0.05);and there was congestion and massive inflammatory cell infiltration in sy-novial tissue. The ankle swelling degree,arthritis indexes,expression of CD4+ in spleen tissue,and CD4+/CD8+ ratio in administra-tion groups were significantly lower than MC group(P<0.05);the expressions of CD3+,CD8+ in spleen tissue in administration groups were significantly higher than MC group (P<0.05);TG group,TSTR medium-dose and high-dose groups showed mild congestion and a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration in synovial tissue of rats,and TSTR low-dose group showed no ob-vious congestion or inflammatory cell infiltration. CONCLUSIONS:Up-regulating the expressions of CD3+,CD8+ and down-regu-lating the expression of CD4+ may be one of the mechanisms of TSTR in the treatment of RA;and with best efficacy when the TSTR dose of 20 mg/kg.

Objective To evaluate the role of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/antioxidant response element (ARE) singling pathway in reduction of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by zinc sulfate preconditioning in rats.Methods SPF healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 250-280 g,aged 16-20 weeks,were used in this study.After the animals were anesthetized,their hearts were immediately removed and retrogradely perfused with an oxygenated K-H solution at 37 ℃ in a Langendorff apparatus.Forty isolated rat hearts were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10 each):control group (group C),I/R group,zinc sulfate preconditioning group (group Zn) and zinc sulfate preconditioning plus Nrf2/ARE singling pathway blocker luteolin group (group Zn+Lut).After 20 min of equilibration,the hearts were continuously perfused for 100 min in group C,the hearts were perfused with 4 ℃ St.Thomas′ cardioplegic solution before ischemia and then subjected to 40 min global ischemia followed by 60 min reperfusion to establish the model of I/R in group I/R,200 μmol/L zinc sulfate 1.5 ml/kg was injected intraperitoneally,and 24 h later the model of I/R was established in group Zn,and in group Zn+Lut,the hearts were perfused for 3 min with K-H solution containing luteolin 50 μmol/L starting from the time point immediately before ischemia,and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group Zn.Heart rate (HR),left ventricular end diabetic pressure (LVEDP),left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and the maximum rate of increase of left ventricular pressure (+dp/dtmax) were recorded at the end of equilibration and reperfusion.Coronary effluent was collected at the end of reperfusion to measure the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malondialdehyde (MDA).The expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1),quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1),superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and Nrf2 in myocardial tissues was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,HR,+dp/dtmax and LVDP were significantly decreased,LVEDP was increased,and the levels of LDH and MDA in coronary effluent were increased at the end of reperfusion in I/R and Zn+Lut groups,and the expression of NQO1,HO-1,Nrf2 and SOD1 was up-regulated in I/R,Zn and Zn+Lut groups (P<0.05).Compared with group I/R,the HR,+dp/dtmax and LVDP were significantly increased,LVEDP was decreased,and the levels of LDH and MDA in coronary effluent were decreased at the end of reperfusion,and the expression of NQO1,HO-1,Nrf2 and SOD1 was up-regulated in group Zn (P<0.05).Compared with group Zn,HR,+dp/dtmax and LVDP were significantly decreased,LVEDP was increased,and the levels of LDH and MDA in coronary effluent were increased at the end of reperfusion,and the expression of NQO1,HO-1 and SOD1 was down-regulated(P<0.05),and no significant change was found in Nrf2 expression in group Zn+Lut (P>0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which zinc sulfate preconditioning reduces myocardial I/R injury is related to activation of Nrf2/ARE singling pathway in rats.
