ObjectiveTo investigate the influential factors on the deaf children's hearing and speech rehabilitation.Methods43 deaf children were involved in our study. They performed the hearing thresholds, hearing ability, speech ability and learning aptitude tests.ResultsGender and hearing aid mode didn't correlate with the children's hearing and speech performance (P>0.05). Hearing thresholds had significant influence on the hearing ability (P<0.05), and the speech ability had a strong correlation with the children's learning aptitude (P<0.05). The multiple regression analysis showed that the hearing ability was a significant predictor of speech ability (P<0.001).ConclusionGiving hearing compensation timely and effectively and grasping the critical period of language development to do rehabilitation training as soon as possible are very important to deaf children's rehabilitation of hearing and speech ability.

Transient receptor potential(TRP) superfamily includes seven subfamilies and TRP channels are regulated by a wide variety of physical and chemical factors. Recently, several members of the TRP channel family have been reported to be regulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate(PIP2). The regulation is complex and it can be activation or inhibition, involving multiple mechanisms and factors. This review summarizes the PIP2 regulation of several TRP channels of different superfamilies and the related pathophysiological significance.

BACKGROUND: Many animal and clinical studies have reported that the safe and effective usage of umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCB-MSCs) transplantation for treatment of neurological genetic diseases.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility and effect of UCB-MSCs transplantation in the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).METHODS: A child admitted at January 2010 had been confirmed as having SMA, and drug and rehabilitation therapies were invalid. Then, the child received UCB-MSCs transplantation via the first intravenous infusion and three times of subarachnoid injection, once a week, (4-6)×107 cells once and four times as a course. Neurological physical examination, biochemical test, muscle enzymes detection, FIM scoring and electromyography (EMG) examination were conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with prior to transplantation, the level of muscle enzymes decreased, FIM scores were increased from 68 to 93 points, EMG results showed that the motor units with re-contraction in each 10.0 ms were increased that the motor function was improved, the lower extremity muscle strength elevated, and the self-care ability was improved in the SMA child at 6 months after transplantation. During the 10-month follow-up, the child had no adverse effects. It is indicated that UCB-MSCs transplantation is effective to treat SMA, and the neurological function has a remarkable restoration.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of different pressure on microcirculation of scar proliferation. METHODS: A total of 60 patients with scar proliferation after burning were collected, including 49 males and 11 females, with averagely aged 37 years. The patients were divided into low pressure (0.67-1.33 kPa), normal pressure (1.33-3.33 kPa) and high pressure (3.33-6.67 kPa) groups by envelope method. Pressure tension bandage was used at 1 week after wound healing and gradually increased, reached expected pressure at days 5-7 and sustained for 6 months. Then the changes of blood perfusion at the scar tissue were measured by laser Doppler perfusion imaging (LDPI). RESULTS: According to the intended processing analysis, all the 60 patients enter the result analysis. There were no significant differences of the scar tissue perfusion of the 3 groups before the therapy. After the therapy, the perfusion was decreased in the low pressure group, but there are no statistical changes compared to before the therapy (P > 0.05), while the perfusion was decreased in the normal pressure and high pressure groups (P < 0.05), which was lower in the high pressure group than the normal pressure group (P < 0.05). When the pressure increased to 3.33-6.67 kPa, the patients feel much more uncomfortable and the swelled signs appear, and 2 patients quit the experiment. CONCLUSIONS: The scar tissue perfusion is decreased obviously when adding the pressure to 3.33 kPa by using tension bandage. Using this method, the pressure should gradually increase to the maximum if patients can bear.

Objective To explore the expressions of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERs) related factors including inositol requiring enzyme-1α(IRE1αα),p-IRE1 α,c-jun N-terminal Kinase(JNK),and p-JNK in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,and to investigate the effect of intervention with glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) analogue.Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into normal chow group(n =15) and high-fat diet group(n=25).After 12 weeks,5 rats of each group were used to assess the establishment of rat models with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.Then the high-fat diet group rats were divided into high-fat diet group (HF,n =10) and GLP-1 group(HG,n=10) and treated with normal saline and GLP-1 analogue for4 weeks respectively.Body weight and biochemical markers in rats were measured.The expressions of IRE1α,p-IRE1α,JNK,and p-JNK were measured by Western blot.Results Compared with the NC group,the levels of body weight,plasma triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C),alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in HF group were significantly higher (all P ＜ 0.01),high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C) was decreased(P＜0.01),and p-IRE1 α/IRE1 α and p-JNK/JNK were increased(P＜0.05 and P＜0.01).After GLP-1 treatment,body weight,plasma TG,TC,LDL-C,AST,ALT in HF group were significantly lowered(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),HDL-C was increased(P＜0.01),p-IRE1 α/IRE1 α and p-JNK/JNK were decreased (P＜0.05 and P＜0.01).Conclusion GLP-1 analogue may improve hepatic steatosis via regulating ERs related IRE1 α-JNK signaling pathway.

This study examined the mechanism by which the gastric cancer cells lead to early peritoneal metastasis. HMrSV5 cells, a human peritoneal mesothelial cell line, were co-incubated with the supernatants of gastric cancer cells. Morphological changes of HMrSV5 cells were observed. The cell damage was quantitatively determined by MTT assay. The apoptosis of HMrSV5 cells was observed under transmission electron microscope. Acridine orange/ethidium bromide-stained condensed nuclei was detected by fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry. The expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax was immunochemically evaluated. The results showed that conspicuous morphological changes of apoptosis were observed in HMrSV5 cells 24 h after treatment with the supernatants of gastric cancer cells. The supernatants could induce apoptosis of HMrSV5 cells in a time-dependent manner. The supernatants could up-regulate the expression of Bax and suppress that of Bcl-2 in HMrSV5 cells. These findings demonstrated that gastric cancer cells can induce the apoptosis of HPMCs through supernatants in the early peritoneal metastasis. The abnormal expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax may contribute to the apoptosis. Anti-apoptosis drugs promise to be adjuvant chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer.
