Objective With the development of children 's health care policy, mild Wilson Disease as the first symptom of pa-tients is increasing.In this study, we assessed the reliability of the 2001 international general standards of the Wilson Disease diagnos -tic score.Methods Twenty -one cases of Wilson Disease in children (11 cases were boys, 10 cases were girls, average age was 3 ~10.8 years) included in the study, other 21 cases with liver disease were age-matched and gender-matched.There were no clinical symptoms, only with abnormal liver function in laboratory tests .All the patients with Wilson Disease were all confirmed through genetic diagnosis.Results Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that at 20 mg /L threshold, the sensitivity of cer-uloplasmin was 93.4% (95% CI : 81.2% ~98.8%), the specificity was 81.8 (95% CI : 71.6% ~93.6%); urinary copper diag-nostic threshold was 40μg/L/24h, the sensitivity was 75.9% (95% CI :61.7% ~92.4%); the specificity was 89.9% (95% CI :73.7% ~96.6%).WD scoring diagnostic system of the positive and negative predictive values as high as 93% and 91.6%.Penicil-lamine load test in Wilson Disease and control groups , no significant difference between the ROC curve showed a sensitivity of only 10%.Conclusions WD scoring diagnostic system in the mild Wilson Disease patients still has a high diagnostic specificity , but peni-cillamine load test does not have diagnostic significance in some patients .

Objective To study the change of endothelial function during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbits and the effect of Rasuvastatin. Method Sixteen New Zealand rabbits were randomLy divided into two groups: ischemia/reporfusian injury group (control group) and Resuvastatin group(drug group). The myocar-dial ischemia-reperfusion model was established by occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery for 40 min-utes evidenced by the elevation of the ST segment≥0.2 my on ECG waveform, and after release of ooclusion, the ST segment of ECG retttmed to 1/2 or more of the normal wavefonn, which was the evidence of successful reperfu-sion. The rabbit serum nitric oxide (NO) and plasma endothelia-1 (ET-1) content were assayed before occlusion, 40 minutes, 60 minutes and 180 minutes after reperfusion. SPSS11.5 software was used for ANOVA(Repested Measurement designs). P<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results There were no significant differences in serum NO and plasma ET-1 between two groups bsfore isehemia, but 40 minutes, 60 minutes and 180 minutes after reperfusion, the levels of serum NO in drug group were higher than those in control group [(82.000±13.825), (63.375±17.541), (50.250±18.987)μmol/L vs. (63.125±18.962), (43.500± 16.518), (29.625±14.162) μmol/L, P<0.05], and the levels of plasma ET-1 content in drug group were lower than those in the control group [(282.541±38.928), (315.152±55.263), (377.795±60.427) pg/mL vs. (331.785±35.341),(375.914±5.204),(459.829±70.110) pg/mL, P<0.05]. Conclusions By the means of increasing serum NO and decreasing plasma ET-1, rosuvastatin can improve the endothelial function in rabbits with isehemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective To investigate the best time of the mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) transplantation after myocardial infarction(MI),in order to provide prophase experimental basis for treatment of the diseases correlating to cadiocyte necrosis by cells transplantation.Methods Thirty New Zealand big-ears albino rabbits,which aging were older than or equal to 36 months were selected(a 36-month rabbit is the advanced age rabbit,equaling a person 60 years old).Model of MI was made by ligating anterior descending branch.The model rabbits were randomly divided into six groups(control group,1 d group,1-week group,2-week group,3-week group;and 4-week group,n=5).200 ?L cells after marked were drawed and injected in multiple positions of myocardium after MI in 1 d group,1-week group,2-week group,3-week group and 4-week group separately.The rabbits in control group were injected with saline of equal quantity.The cardiac functional parameters,blood flow rate of atrioventricular valve and the hemodynamics at eighth week in various groups were measured.Results Compared with control group,the treatment of MSCs transplantation for MI improved the heart function.The cardiac functional parameters,blood flow rate of atrioventricular valve and the hemodynamics in 1 d group was higher than those in control group(P0.05).The cardiac functional parameters,blood flow rate of atrioventricular valve and the hemodynamics in 1-week,2-weeks and 3-weeks groups were better than those in 1 d group(P0.05).Conclusion In the condition of the same cell-density but the different time of MI,the transplantation time window is 1 d-3 weeks after MI,which is advantageous to the amelioration of heart function,the best time of transplantation was 1-3 weeks after MI.

BACKGROUND: Blood platelet is active commonly appeared in both acute and recovery stages in ischemic cerebral apoplexy. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) are closely correlated with the blood platelet function.OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effects of compound danshen drop on clinical prevention and treatment of transient cerebral ischemic attack (TIA) and the influence on serum cAMP and cGMP.DESIGN: Randomized control experiment.SETTING: Department of Neurology of Binzhou Medical College affiliatedHospitalPARTICIPANTS: Totally 180 TIA patients participated in the experiment in volunteer in the clinic of Neurological Department of Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from September 2000 to April 2001.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and hydroxyapatite (HA) were combined in our laboratory to fabricate an elastic porous cell scaffold with pore-forming agent, and then the scaffold was used as culture media for rat bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs). Different porous materials (square and circular in shape) were prepared by different pore-forming agents (NaCl or paraffin spheres) with adjustable porosity (62%-76%). The HA crystals grew on the wall of hole when the material was exposed to SBF solutions, showing its biocompatibility and ability to support the cells to attach on the materials.

Objective:To investigate the teaching effect of the single-circulation organ system integration course Nervous System and Disease for pediatrics 5+3 program, to guide the teaching practice of the integration course, and to promote the education and teaching reform of pediatrics.Methods:A total of 56 students of the class of 2019 in the pediatrics 5+3 program of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were selected as subjects, and the single-circulation organ system integration course was used for teaching. With the course of Nervous System and Disease as an example, evaluation results and questionnaires were used to assess the teaching effect of the single-circulation organ system course for pediatrics from the aspects of general information, course scores, student satisfaction, and expert supervision. SPSS 22.0 was used to perform descriptive statistics and analyses.Results:The course of Neurological System and Diseases integrated the contents of 11 related disciplines, with a mean score of (74.60±7.52) points. The scores of the students for course content, teaching mode, teaching resources, teaching effect, and the degree of overall satisfaction with the course were (4.71±0.54), (4.35±0.81), (4.50±0.69), (4.50±0.72), and (4.30±0.66), respectively. The score of expert supervision was (26.38±2.06) for teaching content and (26.52±2.03) for teaching methods, which still needed to be improved.Conclusions:The construction of the single-circulation organ system integration course provides new ideas for the curriculum reform of pediatrics; however, it is necessary to improve the construction of system and mechanism, explore the coordinated development of teachers, and strengthen deep integration and student guidance, thereby improving the teaching effect of the integrated course of pediatrics and promoting the training of medical talents in pediatrics.

Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze the chronological changes in postoperative complications in surgical ulcerative colitis patients over the past decade in China and to investigate the potential parameters that contributed to the changes. Methods: Ulcerative colitis patients who underwent surgery during 2008–2017 were retrospectively enrolled from 13 hospitals in China. Postoperative complications were compared among different operation years. Risk factors for complications were identified by logistic regression analysis. Results: A total of 446 surgical ulcerative colitis patients were analyzed. Fewer short-term complications (24.8% vs. 41.0%, P=0.001) and more laparoscopic surgeries (66.4% vs. 25.0%, P<0.001) were found among patients who received surgery during 2014–2017 than 2008–2013. Logistic regression suggested that independent protective factors against short-term complications were a higher preoperative body mass index (odds ratio [OR], 0.870; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.785–0.964; P=0.008), laparoscopic surgery (OR, 0.391; 95% CI, 0.217–0.705; P=0.002) and elective surgery (OR, 0.213; 95% CI, 0.067–0.675; P=0.009). The chronological decrease in short-term complications was associated with an increase in laparoscopic surgery. Conclusions Our data revealed a downward trend of short-term postoperative complications among surgical ulcerative colitis patients in China during the past decade, which may be due to the promotion of minimally invasive techniques among Chinese surgeons.
