Objective:To:investigate the curative effects and cost of sequential treatment of children communityacquired pneumoni(CAP) with azithromycin. Method:118 cases of CAP from this hospital were divided into two groups: sequential azithromycin therapeutic group (Group A) and iv ceftazidime group (Group B). Their clinical effect was observed and cost minimization analysis was carried out. Result:The total costs were 612?7. 3 yuan and 819?8. 2 yuan(P 0.05) in Group A and Group B respectively. Conclusion: The sequential azithromycin scheme is a better one to treat CAP.

Objective To explore the effect of theta burst stimulation (TBS) paradigm of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rT-MS) on executive function in patients with chronic schizophrenia. Methods 60 patients meeting DSM-IV for chronic schizophrenia disor-ders criteria were enrolled. They were randomly divided into TBS group (n=30) and sham intervention group (n=30). They were assessed with digit span performance, space span performance and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) before and 4 weeks after intervention. Re-sults After intervention, the forward score of digit span performance, the total score and forward score of space span performance increased (P<0.05), the error selection percentage, the error selection number and the percentage of error number of WCST decreased, the percentage of conceptual level of WCST increased (P<0.05) in the TBS group. However, there was no significant difference in the digit span perfor-mance, space span performance and WSCT in the sham intervention group (P>0.05). There was significant difference in all the items be-tween 2 groups after intervention (P<0.05). Conclusion TBS paradigm of rTMS could improve the executive function in schizophrenic pa-tients.

Objective To investigate the expression of inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and its clinical significance. Methods The mRNA expression level and protein level of survivin, hIAP-1 (human IAP-1), hIAP-2 (human IAP-2), and XIAP (X chromosome-linked IAP) in 36 NSCLC patients and 36 controls were analyzed by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting, respectively. Results High survivin mRNA expression were detected in 32 out of 36 patients, but not in controls. 26/36 NSCLC showed high XIAP mRNA expression and were significantly higher than those with benign diseases (P

Objective To compare the efficacy of amisulpride and other SGAs in treating the negative symptoms of Schizophrenia.Methods The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about Schizophrenia treated with amisulpride and other SGAs from Jan 1995 to Mar 2013 were searched in The Pubmed,EMbase,Cochrane Library,WanFang Data,CNKI and VIP.Two reviewers independently screened the literatures,extracted the data,and evaluated the methodological quality.Than meta-analyses were conducted by using RevMan 5.1 and Stata 12.0 software.Results The totall3 RCTs were included.Among the 1814 patients involved.The results of meta-analyses showed that the score of PANSS-N was no significant differences between two groups (MD =-0.33,95% CI:(-0.87,0.21),Z =1.20,P =0.23) ; and the score of SANS was no significant differences between two groups (MD =-0.21,95% CI:(-1.51,1.50),Z =0.31,P =0.76).The side effects were more in other SGAs group than those in amisulpride group.Conclusion Amisulpride is as effective as other SGAs for the treatment of schizophrenia with predominantly negative symptoms,and it has more advantage than other SGAs in safety.

Objective To explore and analyze the application and problems of esophageal cancer radical opera-tion by thoracoscopy combined with laparoscopy. Methods From July, 2011 to December, 2014, clinical data of 40 patients undergoing esophageal cancer radical operation by thoracoscopy combined with laparoscopy were analyzed retrospectively. Results Except 2 cases being relayed to assisted small thoracic incision because of 1 case with clear tumor invading to trachea and 1 case with obvious tumor invasion to thoracic aortic artery, the remaining 38 cases were successfully completed operation. There were 2 cases with postoperative anastomotic fistula in the neck, 2 cases of anastomotic stenosis and 1 case of hoarseness, there was no perioperative death. Follow-up was within 36 months, 2 patients died 10 months and 24 months after surgery respectively, due to tumor local recurrence. 1 patient with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis underwent local radiation therapy. The remaining was all survival with re-lapse-free. Conclusions Esophageal cancer radical operation by thoracoscopy combined with laparoscopy is a good method with safety and reliability, minimal invasion, fast recovering, and satisfied recent curative effect. It is worthy of applying clinically.

Objective To evaluate the effect of theta burst stimulation( TBS) paradigm of repetitive tran?scranial magnetic stimulation ( rTMS ) on the treatment of schizophrenia through assessing executive function. Methods 60 patients met with DSM?4 and ICD?10 for schizophrenia disorders criteria were enrolled in this study. The group was divided into theta burst stimulation group(research group, n=30) and sham intervention group ( control group, n=30) . The research group and control group were assessed with the Wisconsin card sorting test (WCST) and the go/no?go task by event?related potential(ERPs) before and after 4 weeks treatment. Each test results of all groups before and after treatment were compared with each other respectively. Results Regarding the WCST test,compared with the baseline,the post?rTMS state of the TBS group showed a decrease in the error selec?tion percentage((59.8±14.7)%),the preservative error number(55.3±18.0) and the preservative error percentage (71.3±12.6)%,but the percentage of conceptual level(71.3±12.6)% increased in the TBS group(P<0.05). Re?garding the go/no?go task by ERPs,compared with the baseline,the post?rTMS statet of the TBS group showed an increase in the no?go P3 amplitude(P<0.05 or 0.01) . After intervention,the score of WCST test and the no?go P3 amplitude were significant differences in TBS group compared with same rTMS group(P>0.05).Conclusions The?ta burst stimulation paradigm of rTMS can improve the executive function in schizophrenic patients.
