Objective To analyze the clinical presentation and genotype of a Chinese pedigree with early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease.Methods A pedigree with early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease was recruited.The clinical data of the proband who admitted to Shengjing Hospital in March 2018 and the family members were collected.The DNA sequences of 53 dementia related genes were screened using next-generation sequencing technology in the blood sample of the proband.The point mutation discovered in the proband was also investigated in some family members.Results There were five members with Alzheimer's disease in the pedigree,including the proband,a 42 years old female.The onset age of a pedigree member was 33 years and that of the proband was 37 years.A point mutation from T to C at position 698 (M233T) in the exon 7 of presenilin 1 (PS1) gene was found in the proband and two other family members who were clinically normal.Conclusions The M233T mutation of PS1 gene can lead to early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease.This family is the first pedigree with M233T mutation of PS1 gene in China,which deserves clinical attention.

Objective To observe the brain tissue recovery in patients with bilateral chronic subdural hematomas after drilling and drainage treatments. Methods The clinical data of 143 patients with bilateral chronic subdural hematoma performed drilling and drainage in our hospital from January 2011 to December 2016 were collected, including gender, age, the longest and widest diameters of the skull and the longest diameter of the initial hematoma, the widest diameter of the initial hematoma, the widest diameter of the postoperative hematoma, and other clinical information. The postoperative absorption of hematoma and recovery of brain tissues were analyzed. Results In these 143 BCSDH patients, 119 were male and 24 were male; the mean age of these patients was (67.7 ±1.1) years (21-92 years old), and the mean age of male patients was (67.2 ±1.2) years and the mean age of female patients was (70.2±2.5) years. The longest diameters of the skull was 134.8 mm-177.8 mm (averaged 155.5 mm± 0.7 mm) and the widest diameters of the skull was 113.5 mm-147.0 mm (averaged 131.7 mm±0.5 mm). The longest diameters of the left and right initial hematomas were (113.4±2.5) mm and (117.6±2.1) mm,and the widest diameters of the left and right initial hematomas were (15.8±0.5) mm and (17.2±0.8) mm. There was no significant difference in the recovery rate of brain tissues between patients with different gender, age or lesion sides (P<0.05). The recovery rate of brain tissues was positively correlated with the longest and widest diameters of initial hematomas (r=0.143, P=0.018; r=0.181, P=0.002). A total of 58 patients (40.6%) presented a single-side distance<10 mm from the brain tissue to the inner edge of the skull within one week after surgery, and a total of 48 patients (33.6%) showed both sides brain recovery to<10 mm. Conclusions Drilling and drainage are the first line treatment for patients with bilateral chronic subdural hematoma and contribute to the re-location of brain tissues. The rate of brain tissue recovery is positively correlated with the size of primary hematoma.
