Objective To analyze the characteristic of twenty-item premature behavioral neurological assessment,and to assess the risk factors of neonatal behavioral neurological assessment(NBNA) in premature infants. Methods Total two hundred and seventy-four premature infants hospitalized in Guangzhou Children's Hospital were assessed with the NBNA after correcting age 40 weeks,premature infants were divided into two groups:normal group (n =221 ) and abnormal group (n =53) according to NBNA. The birth history, mother pregnancy situation, the disease during neonatal period and results in hospital were reviewed,and the risk factors of NBNA in premature infants were assessed. Results There were significant differences in gestational age, birth weight, head circumference, body height, Apgar score, resuscitation time, hospitalization time and total gastrointestinal nutrition time between the two groups( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The incidences of superfoetation,hyaline membrane disease, hemorrhagic and hypoxic brain injury, severe infection, hyperbilirubinemia, hypoglycemia and chronic lung disease were different between the two groups( P ＜ 0. 05 ). There were no differences in gender, antenatal hormone use, anaemia, hypotension and evoked potential abnormality (P ＞0. 05 ). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of NBNA score in premature infants would include low Apgar score, low birth weight, hyaline membrane disease, hemorrhagic and hypoxic brain injury, severe infection, hyperbilirubinemia, hypoglycemia and chronic lung disease. Conclusion Although the premature infants corrected age 40 weeks,but the capability and initiative muscular tension are still lower than term infant. Low Apgar score, low birth weight, hyaline membrane disease, hemorrhagic and hypoxic brain injury ,severe infection ,hyperbilirubinemia,hypoglycemia and chronic lung disease are important risk factors related to premature behavioral neurological assessment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and outcomes of two separate vertical wiring combined with tension band and Kirschner-wire plus cerclage wire in the treatment of displaced inferior pole fractures of the patella.Methods:From January 201 3 to January 201 5,1 5 consecutive patients (mean age 54.5 years)with inferior pole fractures of the patella were retrospectively included in this study.All the patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation by separate vertical wiring com-bined with tension band and Kirschner-wire plus cerclage wire through longitudinal incision,4.5 d (range:3.1 -5.9 d)after initial injury.A safety check for early knee range of motion was performed before wound closure.The complications including infection,nonunion,loss of fixation and any wire breakage or irritation from implant were recorded.Anteroposterior and lateral views of the knee joint ob-tained during the follow-up were used to assess bony union based on the time when the fracture line disap-peared.At the time of the final outpatient follow up,functional evaluation of the knee joint was conduc-ted by B?stman system.Results:The follow-up time was 1 3.1 months (range:1 2 -1 9 months)after surgery on average,immediate motion without immobilization in all the cases was allowed and there was no case of reduction loss of the fracture and wire breakage.There was no case of irritation from the im-plant.At the final follow-up,the average range of motion (ROM)arc was 1 26.7°(range:1 1 5°-1 40°),the average ROMlag versus contralateral healthy leg was 1 0.3°(range:0°-35°).The mean B?stman score at the last follow-up was 28.9 (range:27 -30),and graded excellent in most cases. Conclusion:Two separate vertical wiring is an easy and effective method to reduce the displaced inferior pole fracture of patella.Augmentation of separate vertical wiring with tension band and Kirschner-wire plus cerclage wire in these patients provides enough strength to protected the early exercise of the knee joint and uneventful healing.By this surgical treatment,excellent results in knee function can be expec-ted for cases of displaced inferior pole fractures of the patella.

There are 13 members of the Let -7 miRNAs family which is regarded as tumor suppressor gene, locating in nine different chromosome loci. Lin28 acts as negative regulatory factor of miRNA biological recurrence. By selectively blocking the processing synthesis of the Let-7 miRNAs family, Lin28 block the inhibition effect of miRNA of proto-oncogenes and interact with RNA helicase to enhance gene translation at the same time. By not quite clear mechanism, an up-regulation of Let-7 inhibits the expression and function of Lin28. In more and more studies of human tumor, Lin28/Let-7 axsis was proved to be important significance of the tumor's occurrence and development. In this paper, we research briefly the recent progress of the molecular mechanism and related influence factors of ILin28/Let-7 axsis.
