Objective To investigate the correlation between vitamin D receptor gene and bone mass and obesity phenotypes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods 318 patients with type 2 diabetes were chosen as diabetes group,and 50 healthy people were selected as healthy control group.Vitamin D receptor gene Apa Ⅰ type was detected in the two groups.Height,weight and body mass index(BMI)biochemical index,fat content(FM),lean tissue content(LM)and bone mineral density were detected in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.The relationship between vitamin D receptor gene(Apa Ⅰ)polymorphism and BMD and obesity phenotypes in type 2 diabetes was analyzed.Results The VDR gene distribution between the diabetes group and healthy control group showed no signif-icant difference(Z =0.561,P >0.05).The vitamin D receptor genotype in the diabetes group included AA 31 cases (9.7%),Aa type 108 cases(34.0%),aa type 179 cases(56.3%),while the vitamin D receptor genotype in the healthy control group comprised AA 7 cases(9.3%),Aa type 29 cases(38.7%),aa type 39 cases(52.0%).The percentage of AA in both groups was significantly less than that of Aa and aa(χ2 diabetic group =4.127,3.976,all P <0.05;χ2 healthy control group =5.129,4.213,all P <0.05).Proportion of normal bone mass and average bone density in AA,Aa,aa type decreased(χ2 =15.552,P <0.05;F =5.127,P <0.05),the genotype AA was not detec-ted in osteoporosis group.BMI and FM were the highest in AA,which were significantly higher than those of Aa,aa (F =4.319,4.263,all P <0.05).Conclusion Vitamin D receptor gene Apa Ⅰ type polymorphism is related with BMD and obesity in type 2 diabetes mellitus,and it has predictive value on bone mass changes.The increase of BMI and FMmay be beneficial to bone mineral density.

In order to improve teaching lever and explore teaching approach, the feasibility study on the combination of the problembased learning method CPBL) and the lecture-based learning method (LBL) was conducted in the teaching of Acupuncture and Moxibustion. The 2010 undergraduates in the major of clinical integrated Chinese and western medicine of five years were randomized into a PBL and LBL group and a LEL group. In the first semester, according to the basic teaching requirement, LBL was used to accomplish the teaching of basic theory. In the internship teaching section, the different teaching method was applied. In the PBL and LEL group, PEL was used, and in the LBL group, LBL was given. At the end of semester, the examination results of the theory learning and medical cases learning were evaluated. The questionnaire was summarized in the teachers and students. The final examination result of theory learning was not different significantly between the two groups (P >0. 05), but the result of medical cases learning in the PEL and LEL group was better than that in LEL group (84. 47±10. 72 vs 76. 00±9. 97, P<0. 05). The questionnaire for the students and teachers indicated that the result of PEL and LEL combined method was higher than that of LEL method (86. 27±8. 36 vs 56. 00±14. 59, P< 0. 01; 45. 89±3. 68 vs 36. 61±6. 41, P<0. 0l), indicating that the combined method of PBL and LEL is feasible in teaching of Acupuncture and Moxibustion and the teaching outcome is superior to the simple LBL, which provides the new approach to the teaching reform.

BACKGROUND:The effect of body mass index (BMI) on the outcomes ofin vitrofertilization (IVF) is controversial. Some scholars suggested that the higher BMI, the lower rate of pregnancy, and the higher rate of abortion. However, some others got the different results. To data, the effects of BMI on the pregnancy outcomes in females at different ages are rarely reported.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of BMI on the pregnancy outcomes of IVF for infertile women atdifferent ages.
METHODS:A total of 902 cycles undergoing IVF were divided into two groups according to the age:≤ or> 35 years old groups. The patients in each group were then divided into four subgroups according to BMI: low weight, normal weight, excess weight, and obesity subgroups, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: With increasing BMI, the average dosage of gonadotropins was increased gradualy in two both of age groups (P < 0.05). In the≤ 35 years old, the levels of estrogens on the day of injecting human chorionic gonadotropin was significantly lower in obesity group than the other subgroups (P < 0.05); the rates of empty folicle in excess weight and obesity subgroups were significantly higher than that in normal weight subgroup (P < 0.008 23). The fertilization rate and clinical pregnancy rate of in obesity subgroup were significantly lower than those in the other subgroups (P < 0.05). In the > 35 years old group, the empty folicle rate in obesity subgroup was significantly higher than that in normal weight subgroup (P < 0.008 23). Fertilization rate in excess weight and obesity subgroups was significantly lower than that in the normal weight subgroup (P< 0.008 23). There were no significant differences in cleavage rate, cycle cancelation rate, implantation rate, biochemical pregnancy rate and abortion rate between four subgroups (P> 0.05). These findings suggest that in the females at the younger age, BMI not only affects the quality of folicles and fertilization rate; but with increasing BMI, clinical pregnancy rate is decreased obviously. However in the females at the older age, BMI only affects the folicular quality, embryo quality and fertilization rates; there are no significant differences in the outcomes of pregnancy in the four subgroups. BMI have effects on pregnancy outcomes of IVF, and the effects are much greater in the younger female group.

Objectives: To study the executive function (EF) profiles in children with ADHD. Methods: 1.We used some neuropsychological tests,including Stroop test, visual and auditory Go/No-Go tasks, digits reciting inverse, delayed spacial position memory span test, tower of London (TOL), tail making test (TMT),to evaluate the capacity of response inhibition, phonological working memory, visual-spacial working memory, planning and set-shifting of subjects. Results: 1.The ADHD children spent more time to accomplish color naming when the word color was inconsistent with the word meaning than normal control (NC) in Stroop test(p﹤0.05). 2.The ADHD children made more errors than NC in both visual and auditory Go/No-Go test(p﹤0.01). 3.The scores of digits reciting inverse was lower in ADHD than NC(p﹤0.01). 4.The representation of ADHD was poorer than NC in delayed spacial position memory span test(p﹤0.01). 5. In TOL test, the ADHD children spent more time in all of two-move, four-move and five-move tasks than NC, and broke rules more frequently than NC(p﹤0.05). 6.In TMT, the ADHD children spent more time and made more errors on part B than NC(p﹤0.05), and there was no significant difference on part A (p﹥0.05). Conclusions: The obvious impaired executive functions are found in children with ADHD, involving poor response inhibition,impaired working memory, dysfunction of planning and set-shifting.

Objective: Evaluation the clinical characteristics of Chinese reading disorder children.Methods:Use WSIC-CR, PRS and the questionnaire for parents on children's reading and writing abilities to investigate and evaluate 17 Chinese children with SRD (specific reading disorder) and 32 normal children.Results:The VIQ、FIQ、VC、M/C of Chinese SRD children scored in WISC-CR were lower than normal children(98.3?13.5/111.7?13.7,97.1?14.5/110.2?14.3,40.4?9.2/47.6?7.7,25.9?6.3/32.0?7.3,OR=0.88~0.94,P

Objective: To explore the eye-movement characters and the visual cognitive processing traits of Chinese children with reading disorder (RD) during apperceiving pictures. Methods: 14 children with reading disorder and 14 normal controls were collected. Their eye-movements during apperceiving pictures were recorded with Eye-link II High-Speed Tracker. Results:The only significant difference between the two groups existed in the score of average saccade amplitude for picture 3 (RD children scored less 3.79?0.69/ 4.86?1.67,t=-2.29,P0.05).Conclusions:The remember and process capability to the pictures are not the main characters of the Chinese RD children. If the background of picture is complicated, the attention span of children suffered RD will be more limited, and their fixation efficiency will be depressed.

0.85,and the exclusion probabilities ≥0.48.The independence test of 5 loci proved that there were no correlations between the two STRs in 5 pairs,which were LFG26 and LFG21,LFG20 and LFG24,LFG21 and LFG24,LFG24 and LFG26,LFG24 and LFG29.Therefore they could be used simultaneously.Conclusion The forensic study of 5 STRs on chromosome 21 revealed that LFG21,LFG24,LFG26 and LFG29 were good candidates as polymorphic markers for forensic DNA analysis.
