Objective To research the estrogen-like activity of the DDTs and the extract of vehicle exhaust by recombinant yeast system.Methods Being added into the yeast cell culture fluid,the objects reached the final concentration of 10-9~10-15 mol/L for 17?-estradiol,10-4~10-9 mol/L for DDTs(p,p'-DDT,o,p'-DDT,p,p'-DDD,p,p'-DDE),0.25~8.00 ml/ml for the extract of vehicle exhaust,then the cultivation was performed for 4 hours,the quantitative assay of ?-galactosidase activity accounts for the estrogenlike effect of the samples was carried out.Results DDTs were a group of environmental estrogens hormones,which could integrate estrogen receptors as the stimulators do and express the estrogen-like effect.Being tested separately,the DDTs showed the estrogen-like activity,which was stronger for o,p'-DDT and weaker for p,p'-DDE.The?-galactosidase activity of gasoline-fueled vehicle exhaust at the final concentration of 2.00~4.00 ml/ml was significantly different from that of the DMSO(P

Objective To characterize contemporary electrographic neonatal seizures by video electroencephalogram (VEEG) and to assess the value and the limitations of two-channel (C3-C4/T3-T4) amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) plus original EEG signals used to diagnose neonatal seizure with video EEG as a golden standard.Methods Sixty-six neonates admitted to Children's Hospital of Fudan University from January 2011 to July 2011 with clinical or suspected clinical seizure were investigated and bedside VEEG were recorded for more than 3 hours.VEEG signals were transformed into three kinds of aEEG signals by Galileo NT PMS software:one-channel aEEG (C3-C4),one-channel aEEG (C3-C4) plus original EEG,two-channel aEEG (C3-C4/T3-T4) plus original EEG.Electrical seizure activity on VEEG was signed out with respect to its occurrence,duration and localization of seizure onset; while aEEG seizure was recorded only with its occurrence.The relationship between aEEG and VEEG was analyzed by Spearman analysis.The value and the limitations of aEEG to diagnose neonatal seizure were evaluated by sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value.Results A total of 62 traces were suitable for analysis.(1) VEEG showed 39 seizure activities,among which 8 status epilepticus; and the rest 31 neonates had 352 non-status epilepticus electrical seizures,79.3% (279/352) of which occurred over the centrotemporal region.(2) Eight cases with status epilepticus on VEEG were all diagnosed as status epilepticus on aEEG.For non-status epilepticus electrical seizures,the sensitivity of aEEG for detection of electrical seizures was as followed:49.1% (173/352) for one-channel aEEG,54.5 % (192/352) for one-channel aEEG plus original EEG,81.2% (286/353) for two-channel aEEG plus original EEG.Results from one-channel aEEG,one-channel aEEG plus original EEG and two-channel aEEG plus original EEG were all related to VEEG (ρ =0.790,0.907 and 0.953,respectively,P< 0.01).(3) Sensitivity of seizure detection was 66.7% (26/39,95% CI:0.62-0.81) for one-channel aEEG,74.4%(29/39,95% CI:0.78-0.96) for one-channel aEEG(C3-C4) plus original EEG and 89.7% (35/39,95% CI:0.89-1.00) for two-channel aEEG(C3-C4/T3-T4) plus original EEG.Conclusions VEEG might help aEEG in diagnosis of neonatal seizure.two-channel aEEG (C3-C4/T3-T4) plus original EEG could significantly increase the sensitivity of neonatal seizures indentification.
