Objective To study the combined effect of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields ( ELF-EMF ) exposure (50 Hz and 3 mT) and high temperature exposure on hsp22 and hsp26 expression in Drosophila melanogaster. Methods Under the conditions of 50 Hz and 3 mT ELF-EMF,the male and female D.melanogaster was separately exposed for 2 h at 25℃, 27.5℃, 30℃, 32.5℃,and 35℃, respectively.The death rate, exercise capacity and the hsp22 and hsp26 expression levels of D.melanogaster were detected after exposure;or at 25℃and 35℃at 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, and 24 h, respectively.The hsp22 and hsp26 expression levels of D.melanogaster were tested after exposure .Results After exposure for 2 h at 25℃, 27.5℃, 30℃, 32.5℃, and 35℃, temperature had a significant effect (P<0.01) on the death rate, exercise capacity and the hsp22 and hsp26 expression levels of D.melanogaster, but ELF-EMF had no significant effect (P>0.05).After exposure for 2 h at 25℃, 27.5℃, 30℃, 32.5℃, and 35℃, the hsp22 and hsp26 expression levels of D.melanogaster were significantly impacted(P<0.01) by gender, temperature, ELF-EMF and exposure time, and tem-perature was the most important factor .Gender, temperature, ELF-EMF and exposure time had some interaction with the results.Conclusion ELF-EMF can influence the expression levels of hsp22 and hsp26.ELF-EMF exposure contributes to heat tolerance in D.melanogaster through accelerated expression of hsp22 and hsp26.

Objective To investigate the behavioral problems,intellectual ability and executive functioning characteristics as well as their correlations in children with borderline intellectual functioning (BIF) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods 60 children with BIF,60 children with ADHD and 60 typical developing children (TDC) participated this study.Parental report measures of behavioral problems were administrated using the Conners' Parent Symptom Questionnaire (PSQ) and Achenbach Children Behavior Checklist Scale (CBCL).All the participants performed the Chinese Revised Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC) and a neuropsychological test named integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test (IVA-CPT).Comparison of cognitive profiles and correlation between psychological features were carried out to test the differences and commons among the groups.Results (1) Behavioral problems:the children with BIF had higher scores(3.68±2.85) in withdrawal factor than the children with ADHD (2.82±2.24) and TDC (1.03± 1.59).The children with ADHD had higher scores in conduct,impulsivity,aggressive and delinquent behavior than the children with BIF and TDC.The children with BIF/ADHD had higher scores in learning,anxiety,depression,somatic complaint and hyperactivity than the TDC.(2) Executive functioning:the children with BIF had more visual omission error (12.17± 10.48) than the children with ADHD (6.95±7.20) and TDC (2.33±2.48).The children with BIF and ADHD had lower auditory accuracy and higher visual reaction time,visual/auditory response variability,visual/auditory misrepresentation and auditory omission numbers than the TDC.These was no group difference in auditory reaction time.(3) Correlation analysis:intellectual ability was correlated with behavior problems and neurophysiological index such as conduct,learning,impulsivity,anxiety,depression factors,visual/auditory accuracy,visual reaction time and visual/auditory response variability.Conclusion BIF and ADHD are associated with poor executive functioning and increased behavior problems.The cognitive deficit may be a marker of vulnerability of poor academic and social outcomes in children with BIF and/or ADHD.

Objective To investigate the effect of neurofeedback training for tics symptoms and electroencephalogram (EEG) spectrum change in children with tic disorder.Methods 19 patients with transient tic disorder (TTD),20 with chronic motor or vocal tic disorder (CTD) and 15 with Tourette' s disorder (TS) received 40 sessions of neurofeedback training.The clinical effect was evaluated with Yale Global Tic Severity Scale,and brain activity improvement with EEG theta/beta,theta / sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) power ratio.Results The patients with three types of tic disorder all showed a reduction of tics symptoms (TTD:10.32 ± 0.82 vs.5.91 ± 5.74;CTD:12.35 ±1.50 vs.4.00 ±2.22; TS:25.33 ±2.80 vs.13.73 ±4.22; P＜0.01).Additionally,the patients showed theta decreasing and SMR enhancing after the sessions.The ratio of theta/beta (TTD:2.52 ±0.38 vs.2.33 ±0.32;CTD:2.43 ±0.39 vs.2.21 ±0.30; TS:2.64 ±0.35 vs.2.39 ±0.26) and theta/SMR was significantly lower than before treatment (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Neurofeedback training is an effective and valuable treatment in tic disorder especially in the patients with transient tic disorder and mild chronic motor or vocal tic disorder.

To explore the dynamic expression and role of Aquaporin5 (AQP5) in lung development and hyperoxia lung injury, gestation 21-day Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (term=22 days) were randomly assigned to air group and hyperoxia group within 12-24 h after birth. The rats in hyperoxia group were continuously exposed to about 85% oxygen and those in air group to room air. After 1 to 14 days of exposure, total lung RNA was extracted and the expression of AQP5 mRNA was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Immunohistochemistry and western-blot were used to detect the expression of AQP5 protein. The results showed that the expression of AQP5 in premature rats lung could be detected at various time points after birth, and the positive staining was restricted to the type I alveolar epithelial cells. In air group, the AQP5 expression was detected in a very low level at day 1, but exhibited a persistent increase after birth. Compared with the air group, the expression of AQP5 in hyperoxia group was increased at day 1, and had significant difference in mRNA level (P<0.05), but decreased significantly in mRNA and protein levels after 4 to 14 days (P<0.01 or P<0.05 respectively). It was concluded that AQP5 might play a key role in the alveolar period of premature rats by regulating the lung water balance. Hyperoxia exposure leads to a down-regulation of the AQP5 expression, which may be an important factor for the development of hyperoxia lung injury.

Objective To investigate the behavioral problems and intelligence in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with different degree of sensory integrative dysfunction (SID).Methods Ninety-eight children with ADHD and fifty typical developing children (TD) whose intelligence were assessed with Chinese revised wechsler intelligence scale for children(C-WISC) in this study.Parental report measures of sensory integrative dysfunction and behavioral problems were administrated using the sensory integrative rating scale of children,conners' parent symptom questionnaire (PSQ) and achenbach children behavior checklist scale (CBCL) respectively.Relationship between behavioral problems,cognitive profiles and SID were examined in in children with ADHD with different degree of SID (33 without SID,33 mild SID and 32 severe SID).Results (1) Behavioral problems:the children with ADHD with severe SID (SS) had higher scores in Conduct problem,Learinng problem,Impulsivity-hyperactivity,Hyperactivity index of the PSQ and Depression,Somatic complaint of the CBCL than the children with ADHD without SID (NS),the children with ADHD with mild SID (MS),and TD.SS group had higher scores in Withdrawn behavior,Hyperactivity index,Aggressive and Delinquent behavior in CBCL than the TD and NS groups(P＜0.05).(2) Intelligence:the SS group(98.53±l0.80) had lower Verbal Intelligence Quotient (VIQ) than the TD group(107.40± 12.03) and lower Performance Intelligence Quotient (PIQ) (94.59± 10.56) than the other groups(TD:108.96± 10.20; NS:101.88±8.15 ; MS:100.73 ± 9.52).Additionally,the SS group had lower full scale intelligence quotient (FIQ) (96.22± 10.12) than the NS(102.70±7.52) and TD group (109.18±9.95)(P＜0.05).(3) The scores of SID were negatively correlated with behavior problems (PSQ and CBCL) and positively correlated with PIQ and FIQ.Conclusion SID have negative impact on behavioral problems and cognitive function in children with ADHD.The relationship between sensory integration and cognitive function may provide a new way for the clinical intervention of children with ADHD.

Objective To investigate the intelligence structure and attention properties,and to explore the relationship between them in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder of the predominantly inattention type (ADHD-Ⅰ),predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type (ADHD-HI) and combined type (ADHD-C).Methods Children with ADHD-Ⅰ (n=24),ADHD-HI(n=12) and ADHD-C (n=54) aged between 7-10 years were tested with Chinese Revised Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC) and integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test (IVA-CPT).Comparisons of cognitive profiles of C-WISC scores between subtypes of ADHD were performed.Additionally,the relationship between attention/response control quotients and cognitive profiles was investigated.Results (1) Intelligence structure:verbal intelligence (VIQ) of ADHD-HI (110.08± 10.64) was higher than that of ADHD-C (101.13± 13.20) and ADHD-Ⅰ (94.71± 11.11).Full scale intelligence quotient (FIQ) of ADHD-HI (104.33±9.63) was higher than that of ADHD-Ⅰ (94.38± 10.48).Factor A of ADHD-HI (45.75±7.14) and ADHD-C (41.41±8.57) were higher than that of ADHD-Ⅰ (36.67±6.72).Factor C of ADHD-HI (33.42±5.42) was higher than that of ADHD-C (29.24±5.26) and ADHD-Ⅰ (29.13±5.39).(2) Attention properties:Full scale attention quotient of ADHD-C (90.26± 11.67) was lower than that of ADHD-Ⅰ (98.17 ± 18.03) and ADHD-HI (99.25± 15.58).Auditory attention quotient of ADHD-C (89.94± 14.16) was lower than that of ADHD-Ⅰ (99.00± 18.66).(3) Relationship between intelligence and attention:the Pearson correlations of the auditory attention quotient and auditory control quotient with the PIQ were 0.24 and 0.29 respectively.The correlations of the visual attention quotient with the PIQ and FIQ were 0.21 and 0.25 respectively.The correlations of the full scale attention quotient with PIQ and FIQ were 0.27 and 0.24 respectively.Each of these correlations reached the level of significance at the 5％ level.Conclusion Cognitive profile and attention properties analysis reveal that children with different subtypes of ADHD have distinct weakness in intelligence structure.The understanding of relationship between intelligence structure and attention properties in children with subtypes of ADHD is useful for ADHD diagnosis and treatment.
