To study the status and risk factors of cognitive disorder in hemodialysis patients.Methods We re-cruited the hemodialysis patients in our hospital during March, 2013 to February, 2014 and assessed their cognitive function.The case -control method was used to test the risk factors of cognitive disorder in these patients.Result-sThe occurrence rate of cognitive disorder in these hemodialysis patients was 59.4%.Education level and chronic in-somnia significantly influenced the risk of cognitive disorder.The higher education level, the lower the incidence of cognitive dysfunction (OR =0.51; 95%CI =0.30 -0.86); The patients with a history of chronic insomnia were at a 1.98 times higher risk of had (OR =1.98; 95%CI =1.05 -3.75) of cognitive disorder compared to those without chronic insomnia.Conclusion There is a high prevalence of cognitive disorder in hemodialysis patients.Education lev-el and chronic insomnia are independent risk factors for cognitive disorder.

OBJECTIVE:To obverse the efficacy and safety of tolynicate and napthylacetic acid and atorvastation combined with Danshen injection in the treatment of alcoholic hyperlipemia syndrome. METHODS:21 patients with alcoholic hyperlipemia syndrome were enrolled. All patients were given maintaining acid-base balance,oxygen inhalation and other conventional treatment. Based on it,they were orally given 75 mg Tolynicate and napthylacetic acid tablet,3 times a day+20 mg Atorvastatin calcium tab-let,once a day+4 ml Compound danshen injection,adding into 150 ml 5% Glucose injection by intravenous infusion,once a day. The treatment course for both groups was 30 d. Clinical efficacy,ALT,AST,TBIL,TC,TG,RBC and Hb before and after 6, 12,18,24 and 30 d,and incidence of adverse reactions were observed. RESULTS:After treatment,the total effective rate was 95.3%and incidence of adverse reactions was 28.5%. The ALT,AST and TBIL after 6,12,18,24 and 30 h and TC and TG after 18,24 and 30 h were significantly lower than before and gradually decreased by time;RBC and Hb after 12,18,24 and 30 h were significantly higher than before and gradually increased by time,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). CON-CLUSIONS:tolynicate and napthylacetic acid and atorvastation combined with Danshen injection is effective in the treatment of al-coholic hyperlipemia syndrome,with good safety.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of peripheral blood parameters including immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF) in monitoring the hematopoietic recovery of patients with acute myeloid leukemia aftcr receiving consolidation chemotherapy with high dose cytarabine (HDAC).Methods The peripheral blood parameters,including absolute neutrophil (ANC) and platelet (Plt) counts as well as IRF,were measured by Sysmex XE-2100 automated hematology analyzer before and after consolidation chemotherapy with HDAC in 30 patients with acute myeloid leukemia.These peripheral blood parameters were further statistically analyzed and compared.Results Following consolidation chemotherapy,the median time to recovery for ANC,Plt and IRF was (9.2±2.5) days,(11.3±3.7) days and (5.0±2.6) days,respectively.In comparison with ANC and Plt recovery,IRF showed significantly early recovery (P ＜ 0.05).Additionally,ANC raised preceding Plt recovery (P ＜ 0.05).However,the median recovery time of ANC,Plt and IRF showed little difference among these patients further subgrouped according to FAB and risk based classification (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion IRF is an early indicator for the hematopoietic recovery of patients with acute myeloid leukemia following consolidation chemotherapy with HDAC,which could provide important clinical information to evaluate therapeutic efficacy.

A potentiometric immunoelectrode with non-labeled anticancer antigen CA 15-3 antibody used for determinating CA15-3 was reported. firstly, the anti-CA15-3 antibody was immobilized on the surface of polyvinyl chloride-bovine serum albumin membrane, which was activated previously. Secondly, CA15-3 was added on the surface of the antibody membrane to form the antigen-antibody complex. Lastly, the complex membrane was used to assemble an immunoelectrode with an Ag-AgCl inner electrode. The potential of the complex membrane was measured with a pH meter. The response was linear over the range of 15～240　U／mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. Other common antigens in human serum did not interfere with the determination of CA15-3. The mechanism of potential response was explored.

Objective To explore the genetic mutation in neonates who failed to pass hearing screening.Methods A total of 111 cases of neonates who failed to pass hearing screening and were conifrmed sensorineural deafness by auditory brainstem evoked potential (ABR) were randomly selected. The heel blood was collected and DNA was extracted.GJB2, SLC26A4, and 11 mutation hotspots in mitochondria gene12SrRNA were tested. The relationship between degree of hearing loss and gene mutation was analyzed.Results In 111 neonates, mutation in deafness gene were found in 24 cases (21.6%) . Among them 14 cases (12.6%) hadGJB2 gene mutation including 5 cases of 235delC single heterozygous mutation, 5 cases of 235delC, and 1 case each of 299_300delAT compound heterozygous mutation, 235delC homozygous mutation, 299_300delAT single heterozygous mutation, 176_191del16 and 235delC compound heterozygous mutation, and 299_300delAT and 508_511dupAACG compound heterozygous mutation respectively. Ten cases (9.0%) hadSLC26A4 gene mutation including 2 cases of IVS7-2A>G single heterozygous mutation, 3 cases of 1226G>A single heterozygous mutation, 2 cases of 2168A>G single heterozygous mutation, and 3 cases of IVS7-2A>G and 2168A>G compound heterozygous mutation. Mitochondrial gene mutations were not detected. Conclusions Deafness gene mutation is detected in more than 1/5 neonates who failed to pass newborn hearing screening. GJB2 gene mutation is the most commons. The implementation of hotspots deafness gene detection can improve the diagnostic rate of deafness.

Objective:To explore the influence ofDan Shou Tang to fetal loss induced by APA.Methods:One hundred of10-week pregnant SD rats were divided randomly into two groups, every group were divided randomly into nourishing kidney and promoting blood flow group A, nourishing kidney group B, promoting blood flow group C, group D-APS model group and group E--blank control group.From the first day ofpregnancy, the rats in group A were given Dan Shou Tang through intragastric administration;the rats in group B were given formula to nourish kidney and rats in group C were given formula to promote blood flow, while group D and group E, as the control were given the corresponding physiological brine through intragastric administration.Then on the eighth and the twelfth day ofpregnancy, all rats ofgroup A, B, C and D were given multi-site subcutaneous injecting ofpurified ACA-IgG or LA-IgG with a dosage of15mg/ml, fats ofgroup E were injected the corresponding physiological brine.On the 15th day ofpregnancy, the rats were killed for samples.Results:Compared with APS model group, fetal absorptivity, ACA and APTT level were dramatically decreased in group A, B and C(P

Objective To clone and express bradyzoite antigen 1(BAG1) gene of T. gondii,and analyze the immunoreactivity of the recombinant product. Methods The differentiation of T. gondii RH strain tachyzoites into bradyzoites was induced in vitro,and the coding sequence of BAG1 was amplified from bradyzoites by RT-PCR. The PCR product was analyzed by sequencing. The BAG1 coding sequence was further subcloned into the plasmid pET32a(+). The plasmid pET32a(+)-BAG1 was then transformed into BL21(DE3) to express after IPTG induction. The expression product was purified with Ni-NTA agarose and the purified BAG1 was further analyzed by Western blotting and ELISA. Results BAG1 cDNA was amplified from bradyzoites. After IPTG induction,BAG1 was expressed in a fusional form in E. coli. Western blotting showed that the purified recombinant protein could be specifically recognized by sera from mice chronically infected by T. gondii B36 strain. ELISA showed that the positive rate of T. gondii IgG antibodies of 350 human sera detected by the recombinant BAG1(17.4%) was higher than by recombinant SAG1 (12.6%)(P
