BACKGROUND:Many foreign studies confirm that recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) is a safe and effective agent for treatment of idiopathic short stature (iSS), but there are no long-period and systematical researches reported in China.OBJECTIVE: To observe the promoting effect of rhGH on the growth of children with ISS.DESIGN: Case-control observation.SETTING: Department of Pediatrics, the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University.PARTICIPANTS: Ninety-eight children with ISS who were treated in the Department of Pediatrics, the Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University during December 2004 to March 2006 were involved in this study.Informed consents were obtained from the guardians of these children with ISS. According to the etiological factors, the children were assigned into 2 groups: ISS group (n =30) and growth hormone deficiency (GHD) group (n =68).METHODS : The children in ISS group and GHD group received subcutaneous administration of home-made rhGH (Jinsai Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd., Changchun at 0.15 IU/(kg ·d) and 0.1 IU/(kg ·d) respectively before sleeping within 6 months.The body height, body mass and bone age were measured before, 3 and 6 months after treatment. The local region of injection was observed and the growth rate was calculated. Bone age was calculated by graphic atlas method and body height was predicated by BP method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Body height, body mass, bone age and growth rate of children in two groups before, 3 and 6 months after treatment.RESULTS: All the 98 children wereinvolved in the result analysis, without deletion. ①Intragroup comparison: The body height, growth rate of children in two groups 3 and 6 months after treatment were significantly superior to those before treatment [ISS group: body height:(126.5±9.4), (129.1±8.6), (121.1 ±11.0) cm (P < 0.01), growth rate: (7.3±2.9), (7.5±2.7),(3.5±2.1) cm/year (P< 0.01); GHD group: body height: (111.0±13.0),(114.0±13.0),(108.0±12.0) cm(P< 0.01),growth rate: (13.2±3.5), (13.5±3.6), (4.0±2.9) cm/year(P < 0.01)]. Six months after treatment, body height was increased in 27 of 30 children in ISS groups, and in all the 68 children in GHD group. ② Intergroup comparison: The growth rate of children in GHD group was concurrently higher than that in ISS group 3 and 6 months after treatment. ③Adverse reaction and side effect: During the treatment, hypothyroidism was observed in 2 children within 1 to 3 months of treatment,but there was no influence on growth rate after oral administration of thyroxin tablets. Local red swelling of skin was observed in another patient, which stopped automatically after one week duration, but the injection continued.CONCLUSION: Home-made rhGH is a safe and effective reagent for treatment of ISS. It can obviously enhance the body height and growth rate of children. Whereas the inhomogeneity of treatment effect does exist, what's more, therapeutic effect in ISS children is inferior to that in GHD children.

Objective:
To analyze the association of personality characteristics and cognitive adjustment strategies among parents of adolescents with non suicidal self injury(NSSI) with adolescent NSSI.
Methods:
Adolescents with NSSI who visited the hospital from January 2020 to January 2021 were recruited as the case group( n =60), and healthy adolescents recruited in the school, community and hospital were selected as the control group( n =60). The participants parents completed the Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory and the Chinese version of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-C), Logistic regression was used to explore the associations.
Results:
Parents of the control group had higher scores of openness (40.90±6.19) and conscientiousness (48.18±6.12) than parents of the case group (36.88±5.02)(44.12±6.58) ( t =3.90,3.50, P <0.05). In terms of negative events, scores of acceptance, positive reappraisal, refocusing on planning, positive refocusing and putting into perspective were higher among parents of the control group than among parents of the case group ( t =3.43,3.58,2.36,5.44,3.53, P <0.05). Among parents of the case group, neuroticism was positively correlated with putting into perspective ( r =0.31) and catastrophizing ( r =0.37). Openness was positively correlated with positive refocusing ( r =0.30) and positive reappraisal ( r =0.27). Acceptance was negatively correlated with extroversion ( r = -0.29 ), openness ( r =-0.40), conscientiousness ( r =-0.26),while other blame was negatively correlated with extroversion ( r = -0.35 ), agreeableness ( r =-0.36). Extraversion was negatively associated with positive refocusing ( r =-0.32)( P <0.05). According to binary regression analysis, the income of parents in the case group ( OR =0.49), education ( OR =0.60), acceptance ( OR =0.59), positive reappraisal ( OR =0.45), putting into perspective ( OR =0.53), neuroticisms ( OR =0.81), openness ( OR =0.76) and conscientiousness ( OR =0.74) were risk factors, whereas refocusing on planning ( OR =2.09) and self blame ( OR =1.55) were protective factors of NSSI in the case group( P <0.05).
Conclusion
When confronted with adverse events, the personality characteristics of parents of children with NSSI, and the emotional regulation strategies adopted by these parents, have influence on the prevalence of NSSI in this population.

Objective To explore the state of cardiac autonomic nerve function in schizophrenia patients with metabolic syndrome and analyze its influence factors and to reduce the occurrence of sudden cardiac death of the patients. Methods A total of 168 cases of patients according with the ICD-10 schizophrenia diagnostic criteria were divided into group A(78 cases of schizophrenia with metabolic syndrome),group B(90 cases of schizophre-nia without metabolic syndrome)and another 92 normal cases were included as control group(group C). Twenty-four hours dynamic electrocardiogram was conducted respectively and the heart rate variability (HRV) was ana-lyzed. Results Values of LF,HF,SDNN,SDANN,RMSSD and PNN50 in group A and group B were much low-er than those in group C and they were statistically significant(P < 0.05). Values of LF,HF,SDNN,SDANN, RMSSD and PNN50 in group B were much higher than those in group A and they were statistically significant(P<0.05). Excluding the influence of schizophrenia ,logistic regression analysis showed that the influence factors of HRV values were course of the disease(OR = 1.864,95%CI 1.110~3.128),age(OR = 1.170,95%CI 1.018~2.491),types of antipsychotic drugs(OR=2.419,95%CI 0.976~1.835),abdominal obesity(OR=2.425,95%CI 1.347~4.366),blood pressure value(OR=1.263,95%CI 1.575~3.937),blood glucose value(OR=3.376, 95%CI 1.359~2.923)and blood lipid value(OR = 2.178,95%CI 1.492~6.756). Conclusions Schizophrenia patients with metabolic syndrome have obvious cardiac autonomic nerve dysfunction. Excluding the influence of schizophrenia itself,the other possible risk factors include course of the disease,age,types of antipsychotic drugs,abdominal obesity,blood pressure value,blood glucose value and blood lipid value.
