Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of aripiprazole treatment for co-morbid attention defi?ciency hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children with Tourette syndrome (TS). Methods Forty four TS children with co-morbid ADHD were randomly divided into aripiprazole group and haloperidol group. The aripiprazole group and halo?peridol group received aripiprazole and haloperidol treatment for 12 weeks, respectively. Yale global tic severity scale (YGTSS) and Conners parent symptom questionnaire (PSQ) were used to assess the tic and ADHD symptoms before, 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after treatment. Side effects were recorded weekly. Results Repeated measure ANOVA indicated that the main effects of groups was not significant to the YGTSS scores (P>0.05), but significant to the PSQ scores (P<0.05). After 12-week treatment, the YGTSS scores between two groups were not significantly different (P>0.05). The PSQ scores of aripiprazole group were significantly lower than that of haloperidol group. The adverse reactions of aripiprazole group were milder compared with the haloperidol group (P<0.05). Conclusions The present study demonstrates that aripipra?zole has the same efficacy in the treatment of tics as haloperidol, improves co-morbid ADHD symptoms, and its adverse reactions are much less compared with haloperidol.

Objective To evaluate the effect of using standardized patients (SP) in psychiatry class teaching.Methods A standardized patient was used when giving instructions on seven years clinic medicine students of Fudan university,the effect of this teaching model was assessed.Results Totally 96.19% of students believed that standardized patients teaching model was better than the traditional model.Students in classes of using standardized patients scored higher than students in classes without using standardized patients.Conclusion The standardized patients teaching mode,recognized by almost all students,is believed to help students to better master the knowledge of psychiatry.

Objective To investigate the current status of family rehabilitation for children with disability and the unmet needs of habilitation/rehabilitation for their parents. Methods Family Rehabilitation Needs Survey Questionnaire was used to investigate 186 families of the children with disability from 5 rehabilitation institutions in 4 provinces. Results Most families accepted family rehabilitation, including family support, developed rehabilitation scheme, telephone counseling, real-time guidance and appointment for family rehabilitation. Most families would spent 1-2 hours a day for the family rehabilitation, and prefer the rehabilitation of gross motion. However, the rehabilitation agencies played less importance on supports of family rehabilitation. Conclusion The family rehabilitation supports needs to be improved in specification of rehabilitation process, developing rehabilitation scheme and quality control.

Objective To analyze the roles of B-cell ccaffold protein with ankyrin repeats 1 (BANK1) in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) murine model and the correlation with disease severity.Methods CIA murine model were established and evaluated.In different disease stages,the serum levels of anti-C Ⅱ auto-antibodies and BANK1 were detected by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay(ELISA).Moreover,the expression of BANK1 mRNA in peripheral blood cells were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and its correlation with clinical scores was analyzed.Then the percentage of BANK1 expression in B cells in spleen and draining lymph nodes were detected by flow cytometry and the level of BANK1 protein in spleen was detected by Western blotting according to the results afore mentioned.The data was analyzed by Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) Stastistics 21.0 and figures were made with Graph Pad Prism 6.Repeated measure ANOVA was used to assess differences between the two groups.Correlations were analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis.Linear regression analysis was done when a correlation was identified.Results The incidence of CIA was over 90%.The clinical scores of arthritic mice was positively correlated with the serum levels of anti C Ⅱ total IgG antibody (r=0.717 5,P <0.01),anti C] IgG2a antibody (r=0.675 3,P<0.01) and anti C Ⅱ IgG2b antibody (r=0.889 4,P<0.01) respectively.The BANK1 level in the serum and the BANK1 mRNA expression were significantly decreased in different disease stages in CIA mice when compared with normal mice.The negative correlation between the BANK1 mRNA expression and clinical scores (r=-0.485 4,P<0.01) was observed.The percentage of BANK1 +CD19+ cells in spleen and draining lymph nodes and the level of BANK1 protein in spleen were reduced in CIA as well.Conclusion Along with the disease progress in CIA,BNK1 expression is declined,which weakens the negative regulation of BANK1 on B cells.This change goes hand in hand with the severity of arthritis.

Objective To investigate the role of Power Arm in en-masse retraction of maxillary anterior teeth using clear aligner (CA) and micro-implant anchorage (MIA). Methods The three-dimensional (3D) model of maxillary anterior teeth by combined use of CA and MIA was established, and the 6 mm-height Power Arm, was attached to the canine or appliance. The initial displacement and the maximum von Mises stress of periodontal ligament under three loading conditions were analyzed, namely the force was loaded by CA+150 g retraction force at canine, CA+150 g retraction force on Power Arm at appliance, CA+150 g retraction force on Power Arm at canine. Results In sagittal direction, the crown and root displacement difference of maxillary central incisor was 129, 129, 133 μm,respectively. The crown displacement of the maxillary first molar was -23.3, -23.5, -26.8 μm, respectively. The maximum von Mises stress of periodontal ligament in central incisor was 48.4, 72.6, 40.0 kPa, respectively, and that of the first molar was 5.3, 10.5, 5.8 kPa, respectively. Conclusions It can not be testified that retraction of the 6 mm-height Power Arm at canine or appliance with 5 mm-height mini-screw has more advantages than retraction of the canine directly for more favorably controlling the torque of incisors, saving anchorage of posterior teeth and decreasing von Mises stress of the periodontal ligament.
