Objective To explore the application of event related potentials (ERPs) in the comprehensive intervention for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children. Methods P 300 of ERPs and Conners' measuring scale were tested in 31 children with ADHD before and 6 months after comprehensive intervention. At the same time, P 300 was tested in 36 healthy children as control. Results In the children with ADHD, the P 300 latency was longer and amplitude was lower than those in the healthy children before comprehensive intervention (P

Objective: To explore the effects of early intervention on functional outcome and the repair mechanisms in rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD). Methods: A HIBD rat model was established by ligating either uterine vessel of one pregnant horn. The way of intervention was the neonatal handling and enriched environment. One trial passive avoidance response, brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) and NGF levels in the brain were used as assessment index. Results:(1) In the one trial passive avoidance response test, the medial step-through latency (STL) of intervention group (n=18) was much longer than that of non-intervention group (n=15) (P

Objective:To explore the situation of human parvovirus B_ 19 (HPV-B_ 19), cytomegalovirus (CMV) , Group A hemolytic streptococcal infections and immune function in children with tic disorders (TD).Methods:Sixty children with TD were involved in the study. HPV-B_ 19-IgM and CMV-IgM were examined using ELISA method. The titers of antistreptolysin O (ASO) was examined by agglutination. We also detected immune function, the ferrohemoglobin level, leucocyte count and platelet count of peripheral smear in the study. There were 20 healthy children as control group.Results:The positive rate of HPV-B_ 19-IgM (23.3%) were significantly higher than that of control (all are negative, ?2=5.67,P

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of point-of-care combined detection of cTnI,MYO and CK-MB in the patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods 74 cases of coronary syndrome were collected as the patients group,including 36 cases of AMI and 38 cases of unstable angina pectoris(UAP),and 40 individuals with healthy physical examina-tion were selected as the control group.The concentrations of cardiac marker cTnI,MYO and CK-MB in blood at different times were detected by using the point-of-care rapid immune quantitative method.Then the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing AMI were compared for determining the best time of single detection and combined detection.Results The positive rates of cTnI,MYO and CK-MB within onset 2-12 h with the symptoms in the AMI group were higher than those in the control group and the UAP group,the difference had statistical significance (P <0.01).The combined detection of cTnI,MYO and CK-MB within onset 6-12 h with symptoms had the higher sensitivity and higher specificity for diagnosing AMI.The combined detection of cTnI and CK-MB within onset 12-24 h with symptoms could reach the optimal sensitivity and optimal specificity for the diagnosis.The sensitivity and specificity of cTnI within onset 24-72 h with symptoms for diagnosing AMI were 100.0% and 100.0% respectively.Conclu-sion The point-of-care combined detection of cTnI,MYO and CK-MB can conveniently and rapidly diagnose AMI.The sensitivty and specificity of various indexes in different time periods are different.Their combined detection can increase the diagnostic rate for AMI.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane preconditioning on postoperative cognitive dysfunction in aged rats.Methods One hundred and twenty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 18 months,weighing 400-450 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =40 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),operation group (group O),and sevoflurane preconditioning group (group Sev).In group C,the rats were only anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium and did not undergo operation.In group O,the rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium and underwent 30 min of exploratory laparotomy.In group Sev,the rats inhaled 2.4％ sevoflurane for 30 min and then inhaled air for 30 min,and the other procedures were similar to those previously described in group O.At 30 min before operation and on 1st,3rd,5th and 7th days after operation,Morris water maze test was performed to record the escape latency,time of staying at the original platform quadrant and frequency of crossing the original platform.At 30 min before operation and on 1st and 7th days after operation,10 rats in each group were sacrificed and hippocampi were isolated to detect the apoptotic rate and intracellular [Ca2 +] i (using flow cytometry) and the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons was observed with transmission electron microscope.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly prolonged,the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was shortened,the frequency of crossing the original platform was decreased,and the apoptotic rate and intracellular [Ca2 +] i were increased after operation in O and Sev groups (P ＜0.05).Compared with group O,the escape latency was significantly shorten,the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was prolonged,the frequency of crossing the original platform was increased,and the apoptotic rate and intracellular [Ca2+]i were decreased after operation in group Sev (P ＜ 0.05).Microscopic examination showed no abnormality in the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons in group C,and the pathological changes of the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons were obvious in group O,and were significantly attenuated in group Sev.Conclusion 2.4％ sevoflurane preconditioning can reduce postoperative cognitive dysfunction in aged rats,and regulation of imbalance of calcium homeostasis and reduction of cell apoptosis are involved in the mechanism.

The effectiveness of rhIL-11 on thrombocytopenia induced by carboplatin in rhesus monkeys was investigated. Thrombocytopenia was induced in monkeys by i.v. administration of carboplatin at a dose of 15 mg/kg(-1)/d(-1) for three consecutive days. rhIL-11 (50 or 100 micro g/kg(-1)/d(-1)) or Neumega (100 micro g/kg(-1)/d(-1)) were administered s.c. for 14 days beginning one day following the final dose of carboplatin. The results showed that rhIL-11 significantly improved mean platelet nadirs and shortened the mean duration of platelet counts less than 50% of pre-treatment values. Administration of rhIL-11 also resulted in moderate increase of the reticulated platelet, leukocyte and reticulocyte counts in peripheral blood and megakaryocytic and erythroid progenitors in bone marrow. rhIL-11 did not enhance ADP-induced platelet aggregation. These results indicate that rhIL-11 has a potent thrombopoietic effect in vivo and could be an important agent to reduce the severity and duration of thrombocytopenia following chemotherapy.

Objective To evaluate the the relationship between the mechanism underlying electroacupuncture (EA)-induced improvement of postoperative cognitive dysfunction and mitochondrion-depend-ent apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of aged rats.Methods Seventy-two healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 18 months,weighing 500-550 g,were divided into 3 groups (n =24 each) using a random number table method:control group (group C),operation group (group O) and group EA.EA was performed at Baihui and Dazhui acupoints for 30 min using disperse-dense waves,with a frequency 2/15 Hz and intensity 1 mA,once a day for 5 consecutive days in group EA.Laparotomy was performed under 3％sevoflurane anesthesia after the end of EA stimulation in O and EA groups.Morris water maze test was performed on 1 day before operation and 3 and 7 days after operation to assess the cognitive function.Rats were sacrificed after the end of Morris water maze test,brains were removed,and hippocampal tissues were obtained for detection of apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons and expression of hippocampal caspase-3 and cytochrome c (Cyt c) by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly prolonged after operation,the frequency of crossing the original platform was reduced,the apoptotic rate of hippocampal neurons was increased,and the expression of caspase-3 and Cyt c was up-regulated in O and A groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group O,the escape latency was significantly shortened after operation,the frequency of crossing the original platform was increased,the apoptotic rate of hippocampal neurons was decreased,and the expression of caspase-3 and Cyt c was down-regulated in EA group (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which EA improves postoperative cognitive dysfunction may be related to inhibiting mitochondrion-dependent apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of aged rats.

Objective To evaluate the effect of sevoflurane anesthesia on cognitive impairment in rats with traumatic brain injury. Methods One hundred and and twenty healthy male Wistar rats, aged 2-3 months, weighing 190-220 g, were assigned into 4 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: control group ( group C) , traumatic brain injury group ( group T) , sevoflurane anesthesia group ( group S) , and traumatic brain injury plus sevoflurane anesthesia group ( group T+S) . A 40 g hammer was freely dropped onto the left parietal bone window from a height of 20 cm to establish the traumatic brain inju-ry model in T and T+S groups. Twelve days later, S and T+S groups inhaled 3％ sevoflurane for 3 h, and C and T groups inhaled pure oxygen for 3 h. On 1 day before anesthesia and 3 and 7 days after anesthesia, 10 rats in each group were randomly selected for performing Morris water maze test. Rats were sacrificed af-ter the end of Morris water maze test, and the hippocampal tissues were obtained for determination of the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons, cytoplasmic calcium concentration [Ca2+]i (by flow cytometry), expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 ( GRP78) and CCAAT∕enhancer-binding protein homologous pro-tein ( CHOP ) ( by immunohistochemistry ) , and expression of caspase-3 and caspase-12 ( by Western blot) . Results Compared with group C, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, the number of crossing platform was decreased, the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons and [ Ca2+] i were increased, and the expression of caspase-3, caspase-12, GRP78 and CHOP in hippocampal tissues was up-regulated in S, T and T+S groups ( P<0. 05) . Compared with T and S groups, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, the number of crossing platform was decreased, the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons and [ Ca2+] i were increased, and the expression of caspase-3, caspase-12, GRP78 and CHOP in hippocampal tissues was up-regulated in group T+S ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion Sevoflurane anesthesia can accentuate cognitive impairment in rats with traumatic brain injury, and the mechanism may be related to aggravating the degree of endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced calcium overload and increasing the apoptosis rate of hip-pocampal neurons.

Objective:To investigate the current status of the use and management of medical devices in various primary medical and health institutions under hierarchical medical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 450 medical personnel from 50 township and urban primary medical and health institutions of Shijiazhuang from May to August 2023 and a questionnaire network survey on the use and management of medical devices was conducted,which covered 16 items across three dimensions including the use of commonly used medical devices in primary medical institutions,maintenance and quality control management.Results:A total of 450 questionnaires were distributed and 450 valid questionnaires were collected,including 239 from township primary level medical institutions and 211 from urban primary level ones.According to the results of 211 urban primary level questionnaires,the proportions of the training and examination carried out by the medical staff of urban grass-roots medical and health institutions prior to the use of medical devices,understanding parameters of medical devices and timely detection of malfunction of medical devices were 62.6%(132/211),77.7%(164/211)and 70.1%(148/211),respectively,which were higher than those at the township primary level,the difference was statistically significant(x2=17.750,29.649,22.384,P<0.05).The proportions of urban primary medical and health institutions with maintenance system,inspection and maintenance standards,regular calibration provisions,and equipment calibration standards were 64.0%(135/211),53.6%(112/211),55.9%(118/211)and 55.0%(116/211),respectively,which were higher than those of the township primary level,the difference was statistically significant(x2=5.834,34.728,6.004,25.540,P<0.05).The difference was not statistically significant between urban primary level and township primary level in each item of quality control management(P>0.05).Conclusion:Primary medical and health institutions were required to strengthen training and assessment before medical and health personnel use medical devices;improve related system and standards for medical device maintenance;formulate quality control management system for commonly used medical devices;strengthen analysis and discussion processes after quality control,and promote continuous improvement of medical device quality management.
