Objective To explore the cognitive changes of patients with MCI using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MOCA) for elderly preliminarily.Methods 85 normal controls (NC),117 subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and 73 patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) were assessed with the MOCA.Results There were significant differences among the three groups in all items of MOCA(F=258.66,P＜0.01).Significant differences were observed in almost all the sub-tests between MCI group and NC group or MCI group and AD group(visuopatial F=54.86,P＜0.01;naming F=17.30,P＜0.01;attention F=82.50,P＜0.01;language F=25,88,P＜0.01;abstraction F=15.00 ,P＜0.01;delayed recall F=130.49,P＜0.01;orientation F=176.09,P＜0.01.).The most significant differences were found in delayed recall and orientation among three groups(F=176.09,P＜0.01;F=130.49,P＜0.01.).At 26 cut-point,The results of screening of the MOCA agree with the gold standard of clinical diagnose for the patient with MCI.The agreement rate for observation was 0.93.The agreement rate by chance was 0.61.The Kappa was 0.85.Conclusions The MOCA appropriately define MCI,NC and AD in their cognitive function,it has good discriminant validity.The test of delayed recall and orientation may be more sensitive in the detection of the older people.The MOCA is a useful screening instrument for the patient with MCI.

Dermatology is closely related to the health of officers and soldiers both in peace time and war time. Under special circumstances, skin diseases have a direct impact on efficiency and combat effectiveness of the military. Research work on fungal infections and psoriasis in the PLA has been playing a leading role domestically, as well as reaching international advanced standards. In the past 20 years, PLA dermatologists had been granted 32 second awards of Army Science and Technology Advancement Prize. Among them, the results of a series of research on fungal infections accomplished by the Second Military University was granted a second award of the State Science and Technology Advancement Prize. In the past 5 years, the team of dermatology profession has been growing rapidly in the PLA. Up to now, there are 6 departments with 11 tutors who are entitled to train postgraduate students seeking doctorate degree, and about 100 of them have succeeded in thesis defense and conferred the doctoral degree. However, at present, there are still many problems unsolved and further research is necessary. The most important task is, under the guide of bio-physic-social medical modality, various sophisticated technologies should be applied in basic research, prevention, diagnosis, treatment etc. in the field of dermatology, in order to assure the physical and psychological health of the servicemen.

Objective To investigate measures of preventing asphyxia neonatorum in order to reduce the rate of asphyxia neonatorum.Methods Clinical datas on a total of 78 cases of critical asphyxia neonatorum from the year 2003～2004 in Longgang Central Hospital were collected and analyzed.Related high risk factors and effective precaution measures of reducing the rate of asphyxia neonatorum were studied.Results The rate of asphyxia neonatorum from January 2003 to December 2004 was 4.22%,of which it was 1.70% of critical asphyxia neonatorum and 8% of treated deaths.The first seven related factors to critical asphyxia neonatorum of this group were:fetal distress(47%),premature delivery(49%),umbilical factors-torsion,prolapse,shortening(32%),breech presentation(26%),high risk PIH(14%),monstrosity(6%),placental abruption and placenta praevia(6%).Conclusion Effective measures of reducing critical asphyxia neonatorum are to strengthen the monitoring of pregnant women and their antenatal care so as to find and treat PIH early and correct breech presentation in time,try to reduce premature delivery,find early and properly treat fetal distress and oafs and prohibit illegal accouchement.

OBJECTIVE:To introduce the experience of application and report for accreditation of drug clinical trial institution qualification of our hospital,to provide a reference for other hospitals. METHODS:From the building of institution,drug clinical trial ethics committee,clinical trials of listed drugs,simulated qualification accreditation,and other aspects,the experience and key points of application and report for accreditation of drug clinical trial qualification of our hospital were summed up. RESULTS& CONCLUSIONS:Priority should be given to staffing(particularly the leaders of the institution),the installation of software and hardware (for system development,training,institution office and specialized department),and the building of ethics committee. Departments should share work experience of clinical trials of listed drugs and set up a self-inspection group to simulate qualifica-tion accreditation. Work procedures and methods of qualification accreditation should be clearly understood,the requirements of Good Clinical Practice,the standards for qualification accreditation,should be known well;Good Clinical Practice should be seri-ously implemented and the subjects’rights and interests should be protected,which will contribute to the successful completion of application and report for qualification accreditation.

Objective To study the difference on personality characteristics between childhood patients with psoriasis and healthy children. Methods Forty seven children (7-15 years old) suffering from psoriasis served as patient group, and fifty two healthy students (7-15 years old) served as normal control group. The personality character of all the children in both groups were assessed by Eysenck personality questionnaire for children (EPQ-C), and the T scores of EPQ were then compared between the two groups. Results The N scores (represent psychoneurotic tendency of the subjects) of patients with psoriasis were significantly higher than that of normal controls (t=4.624, P0.05). The E scores (represent extro-introverted tendency of the subjects) of the children in patient group was lower than that in control group, but no significant difference was found between girls and boys in the patient group. Significantly more children with introversive-unsteady personality were found in patient group (25.5%) than in control group (7.7%, ?2=5.798, P

Objective To assess the effects of hyperventilation on the balance of cerebral oxygen supply and consumption during craniotomy Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ Ⅱ patients with supratentorial tumor undergoing elective craniotomy were studied Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 2 4 ?g/kg and propofol 1 2mg/kg I V and tracheal intubation was facilitated with succinylcholine 1 5 2 0mg/kg I V After tracheal intubation the patients were mechanically ventilated Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane with or without nitrous oxide and intermittent intravenous bolus of vecuroinum The patients were randomly divided into two groups : in group Ⅰ anesthesia was maintained with 1 5% isoflurane alone (ISO group, n=10); in group Ⅱ with 0 8% isoflurane and 60% 65% N 2O(ISO N 2O group, n=10) Demographic data including age, sex and weight were not significantly different between the two groups In group Ⅰ there were 6 male and 4 female, the mean age was (40 1?9 7) years and weight (64 5?7 3)kg whereas in group Ⅱ there were 5 male and 5 female, mean age was(43 6?8 4)years and mean body weight (62 7?6 5)kg After the opening of dura mechanical ventilation was regulated to maintain PaCO 2 at 4 7 6 0kPa(normal ventilation), 0 9) Arterial and venous blood lactate was within normal range but had a tendency to increase Conclusions Severe hyperventilation influences the balance of cerebral oxygen supply and consumption significantly during either isoflurane or isoflurane N 2O anesthesia at equal MAC, particularly in ISO N 2O group Severe hyperventilation should not be used during anesthesia for brain surgery
