BACKGROUND: The intelligence retardation in children refers to hypo-intelligence structure of full intelligence quotient(FIQ) composed of performance intelligence quotient(PIQ) and verbal intelligence quotient (VIQ) . It is verified in some researches that some of compound formulas provide better intervention on it.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of yizhi koufuye on intelligence structure in children with intelligence retardation.DESIGN: Homochronous controlled study based on children.SETTING: Pediatric department in a provincial college of traditional Chinese medicine and one provincial rehabilitation center.PARTICIPANTS: The cases were selected in Rehabilitative Central Hospital in Gansu Province and Clinic of the Hospital Affiliated to Gansu College of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to July 2002. They were 74 students in Fudu Schools in Chenguan District, Lanzhou City, aged varied from 6 to 16 years, diagnosed as intelligence retardation according to CCMD-Ⅱ-R proposed Intelligence Retardation Diagnostic Standards, and they were able to accept medical and training treatment and were absent of congenital hereditary chromosome disorders. Of those, 47 cases were males and 27 cases females. They were divided into treatment group of 33 cases,the control of 20 cases and simple educational training group of 21 cases.METHODS: In treatment group of 33 cases, yizhi koufuye was administrated and was taken 15 mL each time for children younger than 10 years old, 20 mL for those between 10 to 14 years old and 25 mL for those over 14years old. In addition, the special educational training was applied. In the control of 20 cases, oral application of piracetam was prescribed, 0.4 g per time, 3 times a day and the special educational training was applied additionally. In simple educational training group of 21 cases, the children only received special education same as those in treatment group and the control. Three months made one session. Chinese-Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC) and specific devices were used to assess FIQ and PIQ and VIQ in classified IQ in 3 groups before and after treatments, and the control comparisons were carried on among groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Improvement of FIQ and improved values of VIQ and PIQ in 3 groups.RESULTS: Totally 74 cases were selected and no one lost. Improvement of FIQ: In treatment group, there were 44.7±9.8 and 51.8 ± 11.5 before and after treatment respectively, t = 2. 701, P < 0.01; In the control, there were 43.8 ± 14.0 and 51.0 ± 13.6 before and after treatment respectively, t = 1. 680, P > 0. 05; In simple educational training group, there were 41.6 ± 7.8 and 45.2 ± 10.6 before and after treatment respectively, t = 1. 561 and P > 0.05. Improved values of VIQ: It was 8.1 ± 5.5 in treatment group, 5.3 ± 3.9 in the control and 4. 8 ± 4. 8 in simple educational training group. P < 0.05 compared with the results in treatment group. Improved values of PIQ: It was 4.0 ± 3.6 in treatment group and P < 0. 05 compared with 1.7± 2. 2 in the control and simple educational training group. Improving extent of VIQ was 8. 1 ± 5. 5 and of PIQ was 4.0 ± 3.6 in treatment group, P < 0. 01.CONCLUSION: Yizhi koufuye improves markedly FIQ of children with intelligence retardation and for the classified IQ, the improving extent of VIQ is superior to that of PIQ.

Objective SELDI-TOF-MS technology was used to contrastly analyse the changes of protein expression profiles of gastric cancer cells after TGF-?1 stimulation,and provide theoretical and experimental foundation for screening different significant proteins. Methods Serial subcultivation gastric cancer cells BGC823,MKN45,and SGC7901 cultured in vitro were grouped into test and control groups.TGF-?1 was added to the test group,but not to control group.Cell culture fluid was collected and centrifuged after cultured 24h,and crossing with WCX2 protein chip to detect protein differences. Results When the test group was compared with control group,we found:(1) thirteen different proteins in BGC823 cells after TGF-?1 stimulaton,and their M/Z were M4294,M4932,M4945,M4972,M4991,M5015,5036,M5060,M5153,M5180,M5197,M8577,and M8784,respectively;(2) eighteen different proteins in MKN45 cells after TGF-?1 stimulaton,and their M/Z were M4292,M4931,M4945,M4972,M4990,M5014,M5152,M5178,M7055,M8190,M8570,M8652,M8670,M8780,M9963,M10098,M10523,and M11653,respectively;(3) eight difference proteins in SGC7901 cells after TGF-?1 stimulation,and their M/Z were M4945,M4972,M4992,M5015,M5180,M7056,M8573,and M8604,respectively. By comparing three protein expression profiles of gastric cancer cells after TGF-?1 treatment,we found two significcant proteins with common differences,that had M/Z of M4945 and M4972,respectively. Conclusions The biological markers whose M/Z is M4945,M4972 with gastric cancer characteristic and associated with TGF-?1 have been screened,which can be as the basis for early prediction and clinical diagnosis research on metastasis and invasiveness of gastric cancer.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) in rehabilitation training on cerebral palsy (CP).Methods47 CP children were randomly divided into the treatment group (32 cases) and control group (15 cases). Both groups were received rehabilitation training. But cases of the treatment group were injected with BTX-A in part of spastic muscles. Angles of inner contraction muscle (AICM) and activities of daily living (ADL) of two groups were observed for 6 months.ResultsImprovements of AICM and ADL in the treatment group were significantly better than that in the control group (P<0.01).Conclusions The rehabilitation training still is a kind of efficient treatment method. BTX-A injecting in part of spastic muscles is a kind of efficient assistant method and furnishes a better chance for rehabilitation training. Rehabilitation training combining with BTX-A injection can clearly curtail period of treatment, raise curative effect. BTX-A injection has significant applicable value in treatment on cerebral palsy.

Objective:To discuss the essentials of anesthesia management and treatment strategies for emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), and to provide standardized recommendations for the development of emergency TAVR technology in China.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the relevant data of patients undergoing emergency TAVR surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from March 2019 to February 2021, including baseline patient characteristics, perioperative echocardiography data, prognosis and 30-day follow-up. Post-operative data were compared with pre-operative data using paired-sample test.Results:Thirteen patients, aged (75.62±9.63) years, underwent emergency TAVR surgery, and 6 of them were male. Eleven patients were New York Heart Association class Ⅳ. The preoperative Society of Thoracic Surgeons score was (20.31±15.15)%. The trans-aortic valve differential pressure was significantly reduced after surgery [(68.92±30.66)mmHg vs. (2.70±2.36)mmHg, P<0.01]. Two patients died within 30 days after surgery, one patient developed a new third degree atrioventricular block, one patient had a stroke, and 4 patients developed pulmonary infection. Conclusions:Emergency TAVR surgery is a feasible and effective rescue strategy for patients with aortic stenosis in critical condition. The establishment of anesthesia standard operation procedure process for TAVR surgery helps ensure homogenized medical behavior and good teamwork.

Objective:To study the effect of low-to-moderate dose glucocorticoid therapy on viral clearance in patients with COVID-19.Methods:A total of 72 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from January 19 to February 17, 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine were recruited. All patients received oral arbidol and combination of lopinavir/ritonavir or darunavir/cobistitat for antiviral therapy, and symptomatic supportive care. Among them, 51 patients received methylprednisolone (0.75-1.50 mg·kg -1·d -1) (glucocorticoid treatment group), and 21 patients did not use glucocorticoid (control group). The time of virologic negative conversion in sputum and the time of radiologic recovery in lung since onset were compared between the two groups. The Kruskal-Wallis test or Fisher exact test was used to compare the difference between groups. Results:The median ages of the glucocorticoid group and the control group were 52 (45, 62) and 46 (32, 56) years ( χ2=4.365, P<0.05). The clinical conditions at hospital admission were different between the two groups ( P<0.01). The severe cases accounted for 52.0%, while moderate cases in the control group accounted for 71.4%. The median times from the onset to virologic negative conversion in the two groups were 15 (13, 20) and 14 (12, 20) days ( P>0.05). The median times from onset to radiologic recovery were 13 (11, 15) and 13 (12, 17) days in the two groups ( P>0.05). In moderate cases, the median times from the onset to virologic conversion in sputum were 13 (11, 18) days in the glucocorticoid group and 13 (12, 15) days in the control group ( P>0.05). The median times from onset to radiologic recovery in lung were 12 (10, 15) and 13 (12, 17) days, respectively ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Low-to-moderate glucocorticoid treatment has no effect on the time of virus clearance in patients with different clinical types of COVID-19, and also no effect on accelerating radiologic recovery in lung, so it is not recommended.
