The physicochemical environment and action are similar between the traditional decoction and the extract technics with water or alcohol in the production of Chinese patent drug. Different heating time inevitably differs Chinese patent drug from its decoction; and the alteration of extracting dissolvent make great changes in the chemical constitution. All these lead to the change in the nature of a Chinese patent drug. The authors hold that it is difficult to embody exactly the aim of the prescription of Chinese drug in the existing production technology of Chinese patent drug. It is necessary to advance innovative thoughts of adopting modern technology to extract effective ingredients from single Chinese drug and in the reference of traditional decoction, recombining the composition and dosage of Chinese patent drug.

Objective:
To investigate the associations between early life exposure to particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM 2.5 ) and the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) among school aged children.
Methods:
A total of 165 children with ASD and 165 age and gender matched typical development (TD) children were recruited. Children s basic information were obtained via questionnaires, and the severity of ASD symptoms was assessed with Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS). Early life PM 2.5 exposure (preconception, entire pregnancy, and the first two years after birth) were extracted from the Tracking Air Pollution in China (TAP) datasets. Conditional Logistic regression and generalized linear model were used to evaluate the associations of early life exposure to PM 2.5 with the risk and the ASD severity symptoms, respectively.
Results:
The PM 2.5 exposure of ASD group during preconception[(55.08±9.34)μg/m 3], entire pregnancy[(50.44±8.71)μg/m 3], the first year after birth [(45.04± 8.25 )μg/m 3] and the second year after birth [(40.19±7.12)μg/m 3] were significant higher than those in TD children [(47.66± 7.63 , 44.19±7.16, 38.95±6.07, 35.76±5.65)μg/m 3]( t =7.94, 7.13, 7.70, 6.32, P <0.05). After adjusting for potential confounding, each increase of 1 μg/m 3 in PM 2.5 was associated with higher risk of ASD during preconception ( OR=1.21, 95%CI =1.13-1.29), entire pregnancy( OR=1.18, 95%CI =1.11-1.26), the first year after birth ( OR=1.30, 95%CI =1.18-1.43) and the second year after birth ( OR=1.29, 95%CI =1.17-1.42). No similar results were observed regarding the analyses of SRS total and sub scale scores( P >0.05).
Conclusion
Early life exposure to PM 2.5 is relate to the risk of ASD, these findings indicated that more attention should be paid to ambient PM pollution in the early life prevention and control of ASD.

Objective To explore the comprehensive therapy of infants with urinary calculus induced by melamine.Methods Clinical data of 228 infants(aged from 4 months to 3 years,mean age 11 months)with urinary calculus induced by melamine were analyzed. Bilateral renal calculi were found in 144 cases and one-side renal calculus in 54 cases,of which the diameter ranged from 0.5-2.5 cm.Ureteral calculi with moderate to severe hydronephrosis were found in 15 cases,of which the diameter ranged from 0.4-1.1 cm. Bladder calculi with urinary retention were found in 5 cases and urethral calculi with urinary retention in 10 cases,of which the diameter ranged from 0.5-1.3 cm. All the urinary calculi were confirmed by B-uhrasound examination and CT. Group 1 : Of the 15 cases with acute renal failure, 13 underwent shattering and dissolving renal and ureternal calculus by pelvis clysis with alkalinity drug, detaining double J tubes through ureteroscope. After operation, these patients were treated with alkalinity drugs. Two cases were treated by percutaneous nephrostomy guided by B ultrasound and underwent shattering and dissolving renal calculus by intermittent pelvis clysis with alkinity drug. Group 2:15 cases of ureteral calculus with serious nephrohydrops underwent shattering and detaining double J tubes through ureteroscope, then treated with alkalinity drug. Group 3:15 cases of infant bladder and urethral caleus with acute urinary retention were treated by EMS through ureterscope per urethra. Group 4: The rest 183 cases without urinary obstruction received 1-8 week'surine alkalization therapy. Among them, 113 cases received sodium bicarbonate 0.15 g twice per day,23 cases received potassium sodium hydrogen citrate 2.4g/d, and 47 cases received 10% potassium citrate solution 5 ml 3 times per day. Sixty-one cases who were of no effect with alkalinity drug were treated by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and dissolving calculus with sodium bicarbonate. During treatment with alkalinity drug, urine Ph was observed by urine analysis once per day.When it exceeded 7.5, alkalinity drug. Was withdrawn. All the patients were followed up for 1 to 3 months. Statistical analysis was done with the SPSS 13.0 software. ResultsHyperdiuresis emerged 12-24 h after operation in group 1. The duration of hyperdiuresis was 24-72 h with the urine volume of 800-2500 ml/24h. Urine volume revived gradually 48--96h after operation while serum BUN and Cr revived 1-5 d after operation. Four cases with renal and ureteral calculus became almost stone-free in 1-2 weeks and 14 cases became completely stone-free in 2-4 weeks after operation. Patients of group 2 became completely stone-free in 1-2 weeks. Patients of group 3 were cured by one EMS session through ureterscope per urethra and smooth urination was seen immediately after operation. No retained calculus in the bladder and urethra was found by B ultrasound 3 days later. In the sodium bicarbonate group, 4 cases became completely stone-free in 2 weeks, 18 cases in 4 weeks, 15cases in 13 weeks. The stones lessened and faded in 34 cases and had no changes in 42 cases. In the potassiun sodium hydrogen citrate group, 4 cases became completely stone-free in 1 weeks, 7 cases in 2 weeks, 10 cases in 4 weeks, 2 cases in 6 weeks. In the potassium citrate group, 3 cases became completely stone-free in 1 weeks, 5 cases in 2 weeks, 16 cases in 4 weeks, 11 cases in 8 weeks. The stones lessened and faded in 8 cases in 8 weeks and had no changes in 4 cases. The efficacy of the sodium bicarbonate group was significantly different with the efficacy of the citrate group (P=0. 001). No significant difference was found between the potassium sodium hydrogen citrate group and the potassium citrate solution group(P=0. 372). ConclusionsConservative treatment should be employed mainly in the earlier stage for the infant urinary calculus induced by melamine . When the diagnosis of acute renal failure, moderate to severe hydronephrosis and acute lower urinary tract obstruction are established, surgical intervention should be the main method to relieve obstruction, protect renal function and resume normal rnicturition. With the development of the characteristics of the stones later,the oral dissolution therapy with alkalirtity drug could not dissolve the calculi and ESWL should be employed.

Objective:
To investigate the association between parenting style and sleep problems among school aged children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Methods:
A total of 98 children with ASD aged 6-10 years old and 98 age and gender matched typically developing (TD) children from mainstream schools were recruited. Parenting style and sleep problems were measured via Parent Behavior Inventory (PBI) and Children s Sleep Habits Questionnaire(CSHQ), respectively. The symptom severity and intelligence level were also evaluated. Generalized linear model was used to analyze the relationship between parenting style and sleep problems.
Results:
There was no statistically significant difference in the parenting style of the two groups of children( P > 0.05 ); weekend sleep time of children with ASD was significantly shorter than that of the TD group [(9.1±0.7)(9.5±0.8)h, P < 0.01 ], and the score of sleep onset delay was significantly higher than that of the TD group[(1.8±0.7)(1.5±0.7), P <0.01]. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of total sleep problems and various problems between the two groups of children( P >0.05). The parental support/engagement of children with ASD was negatively associated with the total score of sleep problems( β=-2.68, 95%CI =-4.88--0.47), bedtime resistance ( β=-1.65, 95%CI =-2.54--0.77) and sleep anxiety( β=-1.01, 95%CI =-1.70--0.32). The parental hostility/coercion was positively correlated with score of daytime sleepiness( β=1.41, 95%CI =0.53-2.29)( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Parenting style of support/engagement is associated with lower sleep problems in children with ASD, while hostile/coercion is associated with higher sleep problems. It should be improve parental style to reduce the sleep problems in children with ASD.

Objective:To explore the value of nursing checklist in posterior surgery for thoracolumbar fracture with general anesthesia under prone position.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 106 patients with thoracolumbar fracture admitted to Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine from June 2018 to May 2020. There were 80 males and 26 females,with age range of 25-57 years[(48.6 ± 11.9)years]. Segments of injury were located at T 11 in 18 patients,at T 12 in 26,at L 1 in 21,at L 2 in 25 and at L 3 in 16. All patients were treated with thoracolumbar posterior screw fixation under general anesthesia. Of all,51 patients received conventional postural nursing from June 2018 to May 2019(control group),and 55 patients received prone position nursing scheme for general anesthesia on the basis of conventional postural nursing from June 2019 to May 2020(verification group). The incidence of postoperative complications including stress injury,brachial plexus injury,ulnar nerve injury and ocular discomfort as well as length of hospital stay and patients’ satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Visual analogue scale(VAS)and Oswestry disability index(ODI)were also used to measures outcome at postoperative 3 months. Results:All patients were followed up for 8-12 months[(10.5±0.9)months]. Verification group and control group showed significant differences in the incidence of stress injury(4%∶29%),brachial plexus injury(4%∶16%)and ocular discomfort consisiting of tears(2%∶12%),foreign body sensation(0%∶4%)and dryness(4%∶16%)( P < 0.05),not in ulnar nerve injury and blurred vision. Length of hospitalization in verification group was(7.0±1.3)days,significantly shorter than that in control group[(9.9±1.9)days]( P < 0.05). Satisfaction of patients in verification group and control group was 85%(47/55)and 69%(35/51),respectively( P < 0.05). At 3 months postoperatively,VAS in verification group[(1.9 ± 0.8)points]was significantly lower than that in control group[(3.5±1.1)points]( P < 0.05),and ODI was similar between the two groups( P > 0.05). Conclusions For patients with thoracolumbar fracture treated by posterior surgery with general anaesthesia under prone position,nursing checklist helps reduce occurrence of the related complication,shorten length of hospital stay,improve patient satisfaction,reduce postoperative pain and promote rehabilitation.

Objective:To analyze the value of minute ventilation to carbon dioxide production slope (VE/VCO 2 slope) combined with peak systolic blood pressure (SBP) in predicting prognosis for patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods:A total of 170 patients with CHF who visited the Cardiac Rehabilitation Center of Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University and completed cardiopulmonary exercise test from March 2007 to December 2018 were enrolled in the study. The clinical data, cardiopulmonary exercise testing results and follow-up information of patients were collected to explore the predictors of all-cause mortality in patients with CHF.Results:The median follow-up time was 647 (182-1 764) days. All-cause death occurred in 34 patients. Compared with surviving patients, the proportion of diabetes and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker (ACEI/ARB) use in fatal patients was significantly higher ( P<0.01). The VE/VCO 2 slope and peak SBP*VE/VCO 2 in the fatal patients were significantly higher, and the peak oxygen consumption (peak VO 2) was lower than those in the surviving patients ( P<0.01). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of VE/VCO 2 slope and peak SBP*VE/VCO 2 in predicting all-cause mortality in patients with CHF were 0.648 ( P=0.008) and 0.681 ( P=0.001), respectively; the optimal thresholds were >40.95 ( P=0.008) and > 5 423.50 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, P=0.006), the sensitivity was 0.559 and 0.588, and the specificity was 0.728 and 0.735, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, gender, diabetes and ACEI/ARB use, VE/VCO 2 slope ( HR=2.12, P=0.036) and peak SBP*VE/VCO 2 ( HR=2.42, P=0.016) were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality in patients with CHF. Conclusion:Compared to the traditional index VE/VCO 2 slope, a novel index peak SBP* VE/VCO 2 provides a relatively better predictive value for all-cause death of CHF patients.
