Objective To obtain scientific data for control of iodine deficiency disorders(IDD) by reviewing the surveillance information of school children intelligence quotient(IQ) after the implementation of universal salt iodization. Methods One thousand five hundred and eighty children were selected from 11 primary school in Dalian city of Liaoning province during 2006 to 2009. IQ was measured by Combined Raven Test-C2(CRT-C2) in China. Groups of IQ were classified as outstanding(≥ 130), excellent (120- 129), above average (110- 119), average (90 - 109), below average(80 - 89), margin(70 - 79), low(≤69). Urinary samples of children were collected randomly. Urinary iodine were determined by As-Ce catalytic spectrophotometry. The growth characteristics of IQ were analyzed according to surveillance year and born year. Results The average IQ of children aged 8-10 were 110.4 ± 14.0,112.5 ± 12.4,117.2 ± 11.4,116.2 ± 12.6, respectively, increased year by year from 2006 to 2009. Its average annual increase from 2007 to 2009 were 2.1,3.4,1,9 compared with the IQ in 2006 respectively. The medians of urinary iodine were 224.7,266.7,222.1 μg/L from the year 2007 to 2009, respectively, which were all between 200 - 300 μg/L and can be classified as more than adequate level. The average IQ of children born during the year of 1994 to 2000 were 106.7 ± 13.0,108.1 ± 13.9,108.5 ± 13.4,111.3 ± 14.3,113.6 ± 12.5,115.3 ± 12.3,119.8 ± 11.2, respectively. Its average annual increase from 1995 - 2000 were 1.4,0.9,1.5,1.7,1.7,2.2 compared with the IQ born in 1994 respectively. The ratio of IQ in margin group and low group were all below 2% ; the ratio was increasing in excellent group and outstanding group and decreasing in average group and below average group significantly year after year(x2 = 52.471,34.329,66.483,11.148, all P<0.01). Conclusions Universal salt iodization improves IQ scores. IQ index should be brought into the surveillance project and put in use in IDD control.

Objective To analyze the percentage and functional changes of natural killer T (NKT) cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow of severe aplastic anemia (SAA) children before immunosuppressive therapy (IST) comparing to that of healthy children.Methods Ten children with severe aplastic anemia were included in the study and ten healthy children at the same age were selected as the control group. By lfow cytometry, the percentage of CD3+CD1d tetramer+ NKT cell in peripheral blood and bone marrow were detected from March 2014 to December 2014 in our hospital. Immune magnetic bead separation was used to isolate and purify iNKT cells .The puriifed iNKT cells were cultured in the OCH(50 ng/ml,100 ng/ml or 200 ng/ml)+rhIL-2+rhG-CSF culture systems. The ampliifcation of iNKT cells after cultured in different systems were calculated. Elispot method was used to analyze the spotting form cells (SFCs) of IFN-γ or IL-4 expressed by activated iNKT cells.Results The percentage of CD3+CD1d tetramer+ NKT cells in peripheral blood of SAA group(0.72±0.03)% was signiifcantly lower than that of the control group(0.92±0.02)%(P=0.000). The percentage of CD3+CD1d tetramer+ NKT cells in bone marrow of SAA group(0.82±0.02)% was signiifcantly lower than that of the control group(1.05±0.05)%(P=0.000).In vitro iNKT cell ampliif-cation ability of bone marrow in SAA group was signiifcantly lower than the control group, and in medium concentration(50±6) and high concentration OCH group(52±6), the ampliifcation ability was higher than that in low concentration OCH group(30±5) (P<0.05). The secretion of IFN-γ in the iNKT cells of SAA bone marrow was signiifcantly lower in medium concentration(33±3) and high concentration(35±3)OCH group than that of the low concentration(50±3)OCH group(P<0.01). The secretion of IL-4 in the iNKT cells of SAA bone marrow was signiifcantly higher in medium concentration(50±3)and high concentration(75±3) OCH group than that of the low concentration(33±3) OCH group(P<0.01).Conclusions The quantity and function of NKT cells from children with SAA are lower than that of the healthy children.In vitro, they had better ampliifcation ability and could improve IL-4/IFN-γ imbalance in medium concentration and high concentration OCH group than in low concentration OCH group.

Objective To investigate the rehabilitation conditions of the developmental disabled children.Methods 269 developmental disabled children were involved.Among them,237 children were with mental retarded disability,57 with physical disability and 26 with psychological disability.Questionnaire was used to estimate their condition and affecting factors.Results The prevalence of non-rehabilitation in mental retarded children was 71.31%,in physical developmental disabled children was 33.93%,and in psychological developmental disabled children was 42.31%.The rehabilitation measures focused on training and medical service,rarely on psychological service.The rehabilitation's affecting factors included singleton(P<0.01),maternal age(P<0.01),parental educational degree(P<0.05) and parental understanding of the rehabilitation(P<0.001).Conclusion The factors affecting rehabilitation are complicated,and what we should do now is to subside the poor family,propagandize the rehabilitation knowledge to the children's parents.

Objective To analyze the social and family factors influencing rehabilitation of mental retarded children.Methods 237 children diagnosed as mental retardation in 2004 in Beijing were researched with Self-designed Questionnaires and data were analyzed by Cross-tabs and Logistic Regression statistical method.Results The analysis showed that the degree of disabilities (P<0.001), education received (P<0.05), and the attitude from community to these children (P<0.05), were factors influencing rehabilitation of mental retarded children.Conclusion The degree of disabilities is the most important influencing factor to rehabilitation of mental retarded children; the mild or moderate mental cases can get good rehabilitation in a better community and family environment. The attitude to these children from community can make a great help to the rehabilitation.

Objective To explore the outcome of children with mental retardation after 3 years follow-up. Methods The subjects were 237 children with mental retardation, selected from Beijing Municipal Investigation for Children with Disability in 2004. Gesell Developmental Schedule and Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children were used to estimate the children's intelligence. Results After 3 years, the outcome showed non-mental retarded, 124 subjects (52.32%); mild mental retarded, 46; moderate mental retarded, 32; severe mental retarded, 16; profound mental retardation, 19. The related factors include urban/suburban (B=-0.622), parental knowledge about rehabilitation training (B=-0.470) and score of personal social interaction in Gesell Test(B=-0.040). Conclusion The outcomes of children with mental retardation are different. But some problems still exist even in non-mental retarded children.

BackgroundHuman retinal gliocytes play an important role in proliferative diseases,which are the basis of in vitro studies.Researchers have cultured human retinal gliocytes in the past.In our study,we found that the cells we cultured presented a unique shape different from those by other researchers.ObjectiveThis study was to design to produce a new culture and purification method for retinal gliocyte in vitro.Methods Retinal tissue was isolated from human eyeballs and digested using the two-step digestion method (2％ pancreatin and 0.133％collagenase Ⅵ) to harvest the retinal glio cytes.The cells were collected and cultured in endothelial cell-targeted nutrient culture containing 10％ fetal calf serum and supplemented with β-endothelial cell growth factor (ECGF) and sodium heparin,and the culture dishes were coated with fibronectin(FN) to promote the attachment of retinal gliocyte.During the culturing process,the gliocytes were identified by the observation of morphological characteristic and regular histological examination.The identification of the cells also was performed by immunochemistry targeting glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP),Vimentin,neuron specific enolase ( NSE ),S-100,CD34,and Ⅷ factor.Results Retinal gliocytes were isolated successfully from the human retina by the two-step digestion method.Primary cultured cells attached after 72 hours and achieved confluency between day 9 and 10 that were aligned petaliform in shape.Regular histological examination after H&E staining showed blue cell nuclei and light red cytoplasm.The target cells presented with strong responses for GFAP and Vimentin and no response for NSE,S-100,CD34 and Ⅷ factor.ConclusionsLarge amount of purified human retinal gliocytes can be obtained by two-step digestion and cultured in endothelial cells-targeted culture medium supplemented with β-ECGF and sodium heparin in plates coated with FN.The cultured cells expressed markers for retinal gliocytes.However,specific features of these cells remain to be further elucidated.
