ObjectiveTo investigate the changes in plasma myeloperoxidase (MPO), malondialdehyde (MDA), super-oxide dismutase (SOD) and total anti-oxidant capability (T-AOC) of Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura in children.MethodsA total of 80 HSP children hospitalized from November 2013 to April 2014 were selected including 40 cases of arthritis type, 20 cases of abdominal type and 20 cases of nephritis type (HSPN). Meanwhile, 16 healthy check-up children were selected as controls. Plas-ma MPO, T-AOC levels were detected by chemical colorimetry and MDA levels were detected by thiobarbituric acid colorime-try. Plasma SOD levels were measured by hydroxylamine method. Furthermore, 24-hour urine protein and other hematological indices were routinely tested.ResultsThe plasma levels of MPO, MDA, SOD and T-AOC were signiifcantly different among control group, arthritis type group, abdominal type group and HSPN group (F=24.22-126.99, allP=0.000). In comparison to oth-er three groups, the levels of MPO and MDA were signiifcantly increased and the levels of SOD and T-AOC were signiifcantly decreased in HSPN group (P<0.05). Compared with control group, the levels of MPO and MDA were signiifcantly higher and the levels of SOD and T-AOC were signiifcantly lower in arthritis and abdominal type groups (P<0.05). The levels of MPO and MDA in HSPN group were signiifcantly positively correlated with 24-hour urine protein (r=0.695, 0.559; bothP<0.01).Conclu-sionsThe imbalance between oxidation and antioxidant system exists in children with Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura.

Objective To study the effect of live combined bacillus subtilis and enterococcus faecium granules with multivitamines (Medilac-Vita) and nonnutritive suck on the premature infant.Methods Eighty premature infants without asphyxia and digestive tract malformation were randomly divided into control group(without Medilac-Vita and nonnutritive suck group) and observation group( Medilac-Vita and nonnutritive suck group) including 40 cases each.The gastrointestinal dysfunction and growth-development index were observed in two groups.Results In observation group,the occurrence rate of vomit,abdominal distention,gastric retention,hemorrhage of digestive tract,meconium peritonitis and necrotizing enterocolitis were all lower than that in control group.The cleaning lime of meeoninm in observation group was lower than that in control group [(3.20±1.01 )d and (6.23±2.56)d],the removing time of canalis ventriculi [(4.03±2.11 )d and (7.10±2.91 )d],the time of the jaundice fading away [( 11.10±5.36)d and ( 14.30±6.82)d ],the time of staying in hospital [(15.02±3.12 )d and (20.00 + 5.11)d],the growth of the head circumference and weight in seven and fourteen days were significantly different between two groups.The incidence rates of intracranial hemorrhage,apnea and death in observation group were 12.5% (5/40),10.0% (4/40) and 0 (0/40),which in control group were 45.0%(18/40),37.5% (15/40) and 5.0% (2/40).Conclusion The treatment of Medilac-Vita and nonnutritive suck on the premature infants can promote the maturity of stomach and intestine function,reduce the occurrence of complications,promote growth and development.

Study of depression and antidepressant drugs mainly depends on animal models. Twelve animal models of depression related to some sets of validating criteria are reviewed. Of the 12 models, some traditional models (reserpine reversal, amphetamine potentiation) are rejected as they are devoid of selectivity, insufficient to predict antidepressant activity in the compounds tested. The models with the highest overall validity are the intracranial self-stimulation, chronic stress and learned helplessness models in rats, and the primate separation model. A combination of several models may be the best way to study depression and to screen antidepressant drugs. This combination can be used to detect compounds comparable to those antidepressants possessing clinically established antidepressant activity.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical value on the detection of urinary podocyte marker protein podocalyxin(PCX) in children with nephritic syndrome(NS) and Schonlein-Henoch purpura nephritis(HSPN).MethodsUrinary samples voided in the morning were obtained from 14 healthy children and 75 children with NS or HSPN or Schonlein-Henoch purpura(HSP),including 21 children with NS in the acute phrase,14 children with NS in the catabasis,16 children with HSPN in the acute phrase,14 children with HSPN in the catabasis,10 children with common HSP,and 14 healthy children for control group.And urinary PCX content of the first morning urine was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).SPSS 13.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results1.The levels of PCX content were significantly higher in the urine from children with any case of NS and HSPN compared with those in the control group(P≤0.009),but there was no obvious difference between common HSP children and children in the control group(P=0.754).2.The level of urinary PCX content in acute phrase of NS was(0.593?0.271) ?g/L,in the catabasis of NS was(0.162?0.093) ?g/L,there were significant difference(P=0).The level of urinary PCX content in acute phrase of HSPN was(1.822?1.342) ?g/L,in the catabasis of HSPN it was(0.236?0.141) ?g/L,which was significantly different(P=0.004).The level of urinary PCX content in common HSP was(0.089?0.061) ?g/L,there were significant difference in any case of HSPN(Pa

Objective To investigate the risk factors of renal damage in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP).Methods Two hundred and ninety-two children with HSP admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from Jan.2007 to Mar.2008 were reviewed.According to the findings urinary examination,children were divided into non-renal damage group(183 cases)and renal damage group(109 cases).Clinical data(gender,age,predisposing factors,rash repeated frequency,system damage)and laboratory examination [blood WBC,PLT,IgA,fibrinogen(FIB),TT,ASO,C3,C4] of 2 groups were compared,and then multiple regression analysis were performed to evaluate the risk factors of renal damage in children with HSP.Results 1.Among them,37.33% cases had renal da-mage,and hematuria and proteinuria manifestations were common.2.Simple Logistic regression showed that age was at least 8 years old and the number of purpura relapses was at least 4 times,increased serum FIB levels had significant difference between the 2 groups(P=0.030,0.000 and 0.011,respectively).There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in other clinical data and laboratory examinations.3.Mutiple Logistic regression showed that when the number of purpura relapses was at least 4 times,increased serum FIB levels were the risk factors of the renal damage(P=0.000 and 0.029,respectively);while there was no significant difference for the children who were at least 8 years old between the 2 groups(P=0.175).Conclusion When the number of purpura relapses is at least 4 times,increased serum FIB levels are the risk factors of the renal damage in children with HSP.
