Objective: To explore behavioral problems of deaf students.Method:138 students (92 boys and 46 girls) were investigated and assessed by EMBU, the inventory for family backgrounds and Rutter Children Behavior Checklist, and their academic achievements were evaluated by their semester exams.Result:The detected rate of behavior problems was 61.6% by the teacher checklist. The correlation analysis showed that behavior problems in deaf students (especially in boys) correlated moderately with age, sex, academic grades, part of factors in EMBU and education (r=0.35～0.55,P

The contents of dopamine (DA) and its metabolites, homovanillic acid (HVA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid(DOPAC), in both striata were determined with HPLC-EC technique in each of 28 albino rats, which were divided into 3 groups (bilateral lesioned, unilateral lesioned and healthy control groups). Among the unilateral lesioned rats, three indices such as DA, HVA/DA and DOPAC/DA in the lesioned striata were 22.27％, 420.00％ and 199.75％ of those of the intact striata, respectively. This suggests that there may be an enhanced compensatory DA release in the striatum ipsilateral to the lesion of the rat. Having compared the lesioned striata of unilateral lesioned rats with those of bilateral lesioned animals, and the intact striata of unilateral lesioned rats with those of the control ones, we did not find any significant differences in DA, HVA/DA or DOPAC/DA. The result implies that the compensatory DA release in the lesioned striatum probably accounts for the mechanism of the ipsilateral nigrostriatal system, not for the crossed nigrostriatal fibers.

Objective To investigate the correlation between immune inflammation and overactivity of T helper cells in childhood asthma by cell proliferation assay and activation induced cell death in vitro.Methods Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokines were determined by cytometric bead array.Cell proliferation and activation induced cell death were detected when CD4+ T cells were purified by magnetic beads and stimulated by PHA and antiCD3.At last,mRNA of Fas,FasL and Bcl-2 were mesured by real-time PCR.Results Cytokines of IL-4(2.451± 1.052ng/L vs 1.796 ±0.615 ng/L,P =0.018),IL-10( 1.920 ±0.813ng/L vs 1.390 ±0.162ng/L,P =0.006)and TNF(5.112 ±5.842 ng/L vs 1.506 ±0.551 ng/L,P =0.009) in sera of asthma group were higher than those in control group.Compared to control group,proliferation ability of CD4 + T cells in asthma group was greater ( OD450:0.498 ± 0.052 vs 0.274 ± 0.032,P ＜ 0.001 ) and apoptosis rate was lower( 35.62 ± 0.05 ％ vs 65.28±3.85％,P ＜0.001 ).mRNA expression of Fas in asthma group was lower but Bcl-2 was higher than those in control group.Conclusion It is implicated that defective expression of Fas and over expression of Bcl-2 in CD4+ T cells may contribute to apoptosis inhibition and cell proliferation,which could explain overeactivity of CD4 + T cells and lvmphocvte infiltration in childhood asthma.

The human venous valve of the brachial,femoral and long saphenous veins wereexamined with light,transmission and scanning electron microscopy.The observationshows that the venous valve is composed of three functional layers covered withendothelium on both surfaces.A loosely structured layer is located underlying theendothelium.A network mainly containing randomly oriented elastic fibers was foundnear the side towards the lumen.To the side towards the venous wall,there is adense layer composed of eircumferentially and transversly oriented collagen bundles.Some smooth muscle cells extend from the wall of the vein to the base of thevenous valve.The elastic fibers and smooth muscle cells together with the collagenfibers contribute to the mechanical load-bearing performance of the valve and to thepassive closing and openning mechanism.In addition,the smooth muscle cells mightplay an active role in the normal functioning of the valve.The scanning and transmission electron microscopy of venous valve showdifferent arrangement of the endothelium.On the surface of the valve next to the wallof the vein,the endothelial cells are transversely arranged,while on the othersurface over which the current of blood flows,the cells are longitudinally arrangedin the direction of the current.These accord with the role of fluid mechanics.12 normal venous valves were tested by universal testing instrument (Instrontype 1122).The mean value of the maximum tension of the valve is 1 N.Theaverage value of the tensile ultimate strength is 10N/mm~2.

Objective To establish a off-pump leukocyte depletion method in canines.Methods Twenty-one healthy adult mongrel dogs of both sexes, weighing 10-12 kg, were randomized into 2 groups: control group (group C, n = 9) and leukocyte depletion group (group LD, n = 12) . An extracorporeal leukocyte filtration end was constructed by aseptic puncture of the bilateral external jugular veins via a blood transfusion line and the leukocyte filter for extracorporeal leukocyte depletion. In group LD, blood was filtered with a MP-300 blood line and a SQ40S leucocyte depletion filter one end placed in the right external jugular vein (artery end) and the other end placed in the left external jugular vein (venous end). After heparin anticoagulation, a MP-300 blood line pump was used as the power. Blood was filtered at a rate of 75 ml/min and it was maintained for 60 min. The artery end was then closed, normal saline injected into the closed circuit, the remaining blood pumped into the body, and then the venous end closed. In group C, aseptic puncture of the bilateral external jugular veins was performed. Arterial blood samples were taken immediately before leukodepletion (baseline, T_0 ) , at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 min of leukodepletion (T_(1-6) , depletion period), and at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 120, 180 and 270 min after leukodepletion (T_(7-15) , recovery period) for determination of blood routine. MAP, HR, RBC.Plt and body temperature were recorded at T_0 , T_6 , T_(12) and T_(15) . Results There were no significant difference in MAP and RBC between the two groups ( P > 0.05 ) . HR, body temperature, and Plt were significantly lower in group LD than in group C (P < 0.05) .The leukocyte concentration was lower during depletion period in group LD than in group C ( P < 0.05) , while there was no significant difference in leukocyte concentration during recovery period between the two groups (P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The off-pump leukocyte depletion method is successfully established and has exact efficacy with less adverse effects in this study.

Objective To compare expression of Toll?like receptors 7 and 9(TLR7, TLR9)as well as their regulatory molecules myeloid differentiation factor 88(MyD88)and nuclear factor?κB(NF?κB)in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)between patients with vitiligo and healthy individuals, and to explore their significance. Methods Flow cytometry was performed to measure expression of TLR7 and TLR9 in PBMCs among 36 patients with vitiligo and 22 healthy controls, and real?time fluorescence?based quantitative PCR(RT?PCR)was conducted to determine mRNA expression of MyD88 and NF?κB in the above blood samples. Results Compared with healthy controls, patients with vitiligo showed higher expression of TLR7 and mRNA expression of MyD88 and NF?κB, but lower expression of TLR9. However, significant differences were only observed in the mRNA expression of NF?κB(t=2.814, P=0.008), but not in the expression of TLR7 and TLR9 or the mRNA expression of MyD88 between patients and controls (t = 1.477, 1.761, 0.058, all P > 0.05). Conclusion NF?κB, as a key signaling molecule of TLR7 and TLR9 regulation pathways, increases obviously in patients with vitiligo, suggesting that NF?κB may be involved in the pathogenesis of vitiligo.

OBJECTIVETo intervene the health behavior of lead exposed workers by setting down and implementing a series of measures and evaluating the effects of these measures so that the occupational lead poisoning would be decreased.

METHODS105 lead exposed workers in a factory were chosen as subjects. Blood lead concentration and rate of cognition on relevant health knowledge were examined before and after intervened measures.

RESULTSThe cognition rate raised from 56.6% to 97.3% after training. Lead concentration in blood decreased by 17.7% (t = 4.10, P = 0.000) and delta-ALA in urine decreased by 23.9% (t = 4.248, P = 0.000) 12 months after intervention. The prevalence of occupational lead absorption and poisoning also decreased. The number of workers with blood lead content > 2.41 mumol/L was decreased from 6 to 3, and > 1.93 mumol/L from 14 to 10.

CONCLUSIONTo develope occupational health promotion, enhance health education and improve health behavior are the effective way to prevent from occupational lead poisoning.
