ObjectiveTo observe the effect of the scalp acupunction on children with cerebral palsy.Methods56 cases with cerebral palsy were divided into two groups: the treating group(scalp acupuncture and modern rehabilitation) and the control group(modern rehabilitation only) with 28 cases each. The ADL and the motion function were compared. ResultsThere is a significant defference between the two groups on the ADL, while no significant defference was observed on motor function between the two groups.Conclusions Scalp acupuncture is effective on improvment of ADL of the children with cerebral palsy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the cognition on hand hygiene and the reasons affecting the hand hygiene performance in hospital.METHODS Medical staff of 358 parsons were randomly selected by questionnaire.RESULTS It was higher cognition among medical staff on hand washing indication learned from Standards of Hand Hygiene among Medical Personnel in Medical Institutions(draft for soliciting opinions) issued by the Ministry of Health.The cognition coincidence of hand sterilization indication was 68.04%,but existed some less cognition or miscognition in this field among them.The main factors affecting the hand hygiene performance were busy at work,to which was the primary cause to affect use of stream water to wash hands.The concept that using stream water wash hand is reliable is the primary cause influence medical staffs to use alcohol scrape hand.CONCLUSIONS The nosocomial infection monitoring,guidance and control should be emphasized in the field of more use of the fast hand antiseptics instead washing hands and supervising the relevance of the amount of hand hygiene product consumpsion to nosocomial infections.

Alzheimers disease (AD) is a progressively and retrogressively neurodegenerative disorder of central nervous system severely threatening the aged. The studies of animal models, which share the very similar neuropathological characteristics with human, provide tools for the understanding of the etiology, mechanisms and medicine screening of AD. The distribution and chemical composition of amyloid-beta (A- beta) peptide -positive deposits were investigated in various non-human primate models. Various proportions of A- beta deposits contained cholinesterase activities, apolipoprotein E(ApoE) and alpha1-antichymotrypsin immunoreactivity. Alterations in the basal forebrain cholinergic system have been widely studied, but the magnitude of decline and relationship to cognitive impairment are still a matter of debate. This article also includes the latest research of the changing on tau, subtle structural alterations in axons, and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) in the brain tissues of the non-human primate models.

Objective: To explore the relationship between strain rate parameter and left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE).
Methods: A total of 70 heart failure (HF) patients with CRT were studied. The early left ventricular diastolic strain rate was obtained by 2D-STE technology, the differences of left ventricular diastolic functional parameters to various CRT echocardiographic responses were observed. The area of relevant parameters under ROC curve was calculated by early left ventricular diastolic strain rate for predicting CRT echocardiographic response.
Results: There were 41 patients presented as CRT echocardiographic responders at 12 months of follow-up period, 29 patients were non-responders. The most parameters of LVDF were signiifcantly improved than the base line in 41 responders. The maximum area of 2D-STE derived parameters under ROC curve was obtained by LSRE predicted CRT echocardiographic response
Conclusion: LSRE had greater value for predicting CRT echocardiographic response, it might be used as a sensitive index for evaluating LVDF in HF patients.

0.05). The titrimetric determination of standard solution containing different levels of chloride showed recovery rates of 98.0%～103.7%, relative standard deviation was 0.16%. Conclusion Automatic potentiometric titration was easy to grasp, rapid and accurate, which was a new analytical method worthy to be applied extensively.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and drug resistance of neonatal purulent meningitis caused by Escherichia coli. Methods The clinical data of 46 neonates diagnosed with purulent meningitis caused by Escherichia coli were retrospectively analyzed from June 2004 to June 2014. The neonates were divided into community acquired infection group and nosocomial infection group, or early group (from June 2004 to May 2009) and late group (from 2009 June to June 2014). Result Fever, hypothermia, lethargy, poor feeding, tachypnea, and tachycardia were common clinical manifestations in all neonates. The detection rate of ESBLs was signiifcantly higher in nosocomial infection group than that in community acquired infection group (P?

Objective To study the significance of detection the short term fluctuation ( SF) of macular light threshold detected by Octopus 123 automatic perimeter in suspected early age related macular dege neration (AMD). Methods SF of macular light sensitivity, Amsler chart and central visual acuity were examined in 51 patients(66 eyes) with suspected early AMD group and in 32 patients (40 eyes) in the control group. Results SF were significantly different in suspected early AMD group and control group. SF was more sensitive than the examination of central visual acuity and Amsler chart. SF was related to the quantity, location and quality of drusen. Conclusion Visual function of some suspected early AMD patients with drusen may be damaged, though the central visual acuity appears normal.

Objective To investigate clinical and pathological characteristics of acquired digital fibrokeratoma (ADF).Methods Clinical data were collected from 12 patients with ADF,and their clinical manifestations,histopathological features,treatment and prognosis were analyzed retrospectively.Results The mean age at onset of ADF was 39.75 ± 17.69 years (range,17-64.5 years),and the average disease duration was 4.83 ± 5.77 years (range,0.5-20 years).The ratio of male to female was 1.4:1.Most skin.lesions were polymorphic,and mainly involved fingers,toes and nail grooves.Sometimes non-extremity sites are also involved.Histopathological examination of skin lesions showed epidermal hyperkeratosis,acanthosis and broadened dendroid rete ridges.The dermis consisted of mature collagen bundles,fibroblasts and a large number of dilated capillaries.The characteristic manifestation was that most collagen bundles were vertical to the epidermis.Conclusions ADF,a rare benign fibrous tumor with unknown etiology,usually occurs in adults as a solitary lesion on fingers or toes,sometimes in non-extremity sites.Surgery and laser therapy are common treatments for ADF with low recurrence rate.
