Objective To assess the behavior of children with tic disorder (TD),and to analyze the behavioral characteristics among children with TD at different clinic conditions.Methods Sixty-three children with TD were evaluated with Child behavior checklist (CBCL).ANOVA and t-test were used to analyze the difference in the total and individual scores of CBCL in the children classified according to the different clinical types,the severity of TD,and comorbid attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD).Results There were no significant differences among the total and individual scores of CBCL in the patients of the different clinic types( P ＜ 0.05 ) ;the scores of body complain in the patients in moderate to severe conditions (4.15 ± 2.34) were higher than that of those in mild condition ( 2.68 ± 2.22 ) ( t =- 2.540,P =0.014) ; the scores of attention problem (9.94 ± 3.57 ),disciplinary offence ( 3.94 ± 3.06 ),aggressive behavior ( 15.39 ± 5.12 ),exportoriented behavior problems ( 13.98 ± 7.34)and behavior problem (47.89 ± 17.51 )in TD comorbid ADHD were higher than in simple TD group ( 7.31 ± 3.34,2.44 ± 2.22,7.24 ± 4.93,9.78 ± 6.55,37.07 ± 17.98 ) ( t =- 2.774,- 2.166,- 1.930,- 1.956,- 2.174,P =0.007,0.034,0.048,0.04 1,0.034 ).Conclusion Children with TD at different clinical conditions have varied behavioral problems and behavioral characteristics,while comorbid ADHD is the most significant factor to affect TD patient's behaviors.

Objective: To investigate the effect of human vascular endothelial growth factor on restenosis after angioplasty. Methods: A rabbit model of injured carotid artery was established using percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. The pcDNA3/hVEGF165（500 μg,n=12） and pcDNA3 （500 μg,n=12） were separately transfected into injured arterial wall with 30 min incubation. The carotid artery was imaged by arotic angiography at the end of week 2 and week 4. Pathology analysis and Northern blot analysis were performed for harvested injured artery segment. Results: Arotic angiography showed carotid artery diameter narrowness were obviously lessened at week 2 and week 4 in experimental group than that in control group; H-E stains showed lumina narrow ratio were obviously reduced at week 2 and week 4 in experimental group than that in control group［（9.58±1.35）% vs (31.72±1.72)%；(18.09±2.93)% vs (44.05±3.28)%， P<0.01 ］; By Northern blot analysis, the expression of hVEGF165mRNA in experimental group were upregulated than in contol group. Conclusion: pcDNA3/hVEGF165 can be transfected into smooth muscle cell and continue to secret bioactivity protein at least for 4 weeks; it can accelerate reendothelialization and prevent restenosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of tumor-necrosis factor α (TNF-α) on the expressions of proprotein convertases (PC) and its relationship with the inhibition of hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication.Methods HepG2.2.15 cells cultured routinely were exposed to 20 μg/L recombinant TNF-α and/or 20 μmol/L PC inhibitor (DEC) for 18 h.Then Followed cells werecollected and cell total RNA and HBV DNA were extracted.PC mRNA and core-associated HBV DNA were measured using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques.Measurement data was compared using t-test.Results When PC mRNA expressions in the blank group was as to 1,the expressions of PC1/3、PC2、furin、PC4 、PC5/6 、PACE4 and PC7/8 mRNA in HepG2.2.15 cells treated with 20μg/L TNF-α treatment for 18 h were all up-regulated,which were 3.3±0.7、79.3±3.3、77.5±1.3、19.2±3.1、1.3±0.1、1.4± 0.2、274.8± 7.1,respectively (all P＜0.05).Treatment of 20 μg/L recombinant TNF-α for 18 h significantly reduced core-associated HBV DNA compared with blank gourp (0.21∶1,t =8.79,P =0.002),while 20 μmol/L DEC significantly up-regulated core-associated HBV DNA (3.84∶ 1,t=7.67,P=0.004).Moreover,core-associated HBV DNA in group of DEC and TNF-α treatment was significantly higher than group of TNF-α treatment (0.31∶0.21,t=10.49,P=0.007).Conclusion Up-regulated PC mRNA expression induced by TNF-α is significantly associated with the inhibition of HBV replication.

Objective To explore the effects of three- stage swallowing rehabilitation on the swallowing a-bility of stroke patients with dysphagia. Methods 60 stroke patients were divided into primary cerebral infarction and primary cerebral hemorrhage groups, then further divided into treated and control groups randomly. All groups were given the same routine internal medicine treatment. Patients in the treated group were given three stage swallo-wing rehabilitation training additionally. All patients were assessed using Caiteng's Grading Method at the outset and at the end of the 2nd week, the Ist month and the 2nd month. Results Swallowing function scores in the treated groups were higher than those in the control groups at every stage (P≤0.05). The treated groups' scores also im-proved more quickly than those in the control groups. Conclusion Three stage swallowing rehabilitation can signifi-cantly improve stroke patients' swallowing function.

Objective To explore the influence of various concentrations of amino acid on the stability of neonatal parenteral nutrition solutions .Methods Five formulations were designed with 5 different amino acid concentrations containing the same components .The final amino acid concentrations of admixtures were 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 3.5%, respectively .The appearance , pH, and osmolality were observed or meas-ured after preparation (0 hour) and at 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after preparation.The average size and the size distribution of the lipid globules were also evaluated by laser nanometer particle size analyzer .Results There was no observable alteration in color , phase separation , precipitate , and flocculation in any admixture at any of the observation time points.The mean pH values for all groups were between (5.49 ±0.01) to (6.19 ±0.01) within 72 hours.The mean osmolalities for all groups were between (774 ±3) to (1106 ±13) mOsm/kg.The mean diameters of lipid globules for all groups were between (280.6 ±0.7 ) mm to (332.2 ±2.0 ) nm.The mean polydispersity for all groups were between (0.200 ±0.011) to (0.245 ±0.012).The enrichment of ami-no acid concentration was linked to lower pH ( P=0.000 ) , higher osmolality ( P=0.000 ) and larger average lipid globules size ( P=0.000 ) .However , there was no distinct linear dependence between amino acid concen -tration and polydispersity value ( P=0.628 ) .Conclusion After 72 hours of storage at room temperature , the appearance, pH, osmolality, and the average lipid globules diameter of the parenteral nutrition solutions are within the safe range when the amino acid is not contained or the concentrations are no more than 3.5%.
