Recent studies demonstrate that autistic spectrum disprders children have deficits in executive functiony, particularly the function referred response inhibition. The antisaccade task provides a new tool for direct evaluation of inhibitory function and a new way to explore the character of response inhibition in children with cognitive impairment. Researchers have used the technologies of eye movement to reveal the ability of oculomotor inhibition in children with autistic spectrum disprders, which is poorer than that of normal children.

Inflammation reaction and immune response are in-separable in the levels of system, tissue, cell and molecule. In-flammatory immune responses ( IIR) is proposed in this paper, which is defined a moderate or abnormal system responses of in-flammatory immune related cells in responding to the internal and external environment changes of body. It is described briefly that the research progresses of inflammatory immune cells ( e. g. , macrophages, dendritic cells, T cells and B cells, etc. ) and non-inflammatory immune cells ( e. g. , glial cells, endothe-lial cells, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, synovial cells and liver cells, etc. ) , and cytokines/receptor signal transduction in-volved in IIR. Moreover, the existing problems about regulating IIR drugs clinically are summarized. It is firstly put forward that soft regulation of inflammatory immune responses ( SRIIR) is a new direction of discovery and development of new drugs for the treatment of IIR related diseases.

Objective To investigate the use of anti-infective drugs in outpatients of our hospital, and to pro-mote rational administration in clinic. Methods Collecting the prescriptions of out-patient during June 2007 in our pharmscy,then statistically analyze the anti-infective drugs information in combination with adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports. Results The percentage of prescriptions was 45. 8%, the average amount of the prescriptions was 62. 56 yuan,the cost of anti-infective drugs accounted for 41.8% ,prescriptions of combined use and injection were 39.5% and 37.2% ,the ratio of ADR was 80. 6% ,irrational administration accounted for 10. 8%. Conclusion The use of anti-infective drugs in our prescriptions of out-patients has some problems, but rational use is the main trend in our hospital.

The deposition of amyloid β-protein (Aβ is the key pathological basis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The current studies emphasis that the stability of internal environment between cells of the neurovascular unit is the key to maintain normal brain function. This article reviews the relationship between the Aβand the neurovascular unit injury, and we expect to provide some new ideas for the clinical prevention and treatment of CAA and AD.

B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS), a tumor neurosis factor ligand superfamily, is an important factor of B cell survival and activation. However, BLyS also regulates T cell activation and survival, playing key roles in T cell-mediated autoimmune disorders. In the paper, we introduced the mechanisms of BLyS and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) regulating T cell responses and their roles in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Objective To study the effect of recombinant human endostatin hormone combined with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) for the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Fifty-two primary HCC patients were divided into combined group (26 patients) and control group (26 patients) by random digits table method.The patients in combined group received TACE and recombinant human endostatin hormone added in embolism emulsion.The recent curative effect,level of serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),adverse reactions,recurrence rate and survival rate were compared between two groups.Results The response rate(RR) and clinical benefit rate(DCR) in combined group were 57.69％(15/26),84.62％(22/26),in control group were 34.62％(9/26),73.08％(19/26),there were significant differences (x2 =5.237,P ＜ 0.05 ; x2 =4.284,P ＜ 0.05).The 7th,14th,28th day after TACE,the level of VEGF in two groups was first increased and then a downward trend,the difference were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The level of VEGF in combined group was significantly lower than that in control group (P＜ 0.05).The follow up rate was 94.23％(49/52),the 1-year and 2-year recurrence rate in combined group was significantly lower than that in control group (P＜ 0.05).The 2-year and 3-year survival rate in combined group was significantly higher than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion With TACE plus recombinant human endostatin hormone can effectively inhibit the increase of serum VEGF level,improve curative effect and disease control rate,reduce tumor recurrence and improve survival rate.

Objective To explore the relevant factors influencing the prognosis of progressive cerebral infarction,in order to provide basis for clinical trentment and improve the prognosis of patients.Methods Clinical data of 163 patients admitted as progressive cerebral infarction and 355 patients admitted as non-progressive cerebral infarction were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were followed up by interview or telephone at the time of 30 and 90days,the clinical data were recorded.The relevant factors influencing the prognosis of progressive cerebral infarction were analyzed.Results Multiple linear regression analysis of patients with progressive cerebral infarction showed that total anterior circulation infarcts,respiratory infection,coronary heart disease history,imbalance of water and electrolyte,white blood cell increasing were leading influence risk factors for the higher National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) in hospitalized patients.Analysis of patients with progressive cerebral infarction showed that total anterior circulation infarcts,lack of physical activity,NIHSS at admitting,the elderly and respiratory infection were leading influence risk factors of the higher Activities of Daily Living(ADL) and modify Rankin Scale(mRS) scores at 30d and 90d of following up.The scores of ADL and mRS at 30d and 90d were significantly higher in progressive cerebral infarction than those of non-progressive cerebral infarction patients (t =6.6179,P =0.000,t =5.2788,P =0.000,t =5.0608,P =0.000,t =4.0725,P =0.000,respectively).The recurrence of cerebral infarction in progressive cerebral infarction group and death events at 30d were also significantly higher than that of non-progressive cerebral infarction(x2 =8.423,P =0.004 and x2 =5.135,P =0.023,respectively).But the recurrence of progressive cerebral infarction and death events at 90d,there were no significant differences between progressive cerebral infarction and non-progressive cerebral infarction (x2 =1.938,P =0.159 and x2 =3.518,P =0.061,respectively).Conclusion The relevant factors influencing the prognosis of progressive cerebral infarction are common effect of various factors.In the treatment of progressive cerebral infarction should be actively considered as much as possible to improve the prognosis of patients.
