Objective To investigate the characteristic of theta oscillation in patients with frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) by the analysis of multi-channel electroencephalographs (EEGs) during rest state and working memory(WM) maintenance. Methods The 19 FLE patients and 17 healthy subjects underwent EEG recording with 34-channel EEG machine during visual working memory task performance. The differences of behavioral results were analyzed between FLE group and controls. Short-time Fourier transform was used to calculate the power spectral density of different frequency bands in 34 channels. The theta power values during the retention period of working memory and rest state were compared between two groups. Results Compared with controls, reaction time of FLE increased significantly (P<0.01) and accuracy decreased (P<0.05). The power spectral density of theta band for FLE increased both in Fz and frontal region during rest state (P<0.01). Compared with controls, the power spectral density of theta oscillation decreased significantly in the frontal region for FLE during WM maintenance. Conclusion Our results suggest that working memory in patients with FLE was impaired. The absence of theta oscillation during the WM delayde period may provide a possible neural mechanism for the working memory dysfunction in FLE.

Objective To seek a scalp venipuneture method with high success rate and less pain for patients. Methods Taking the rapid parallel straight method as the control group, and the rapid vertical straight method as the experimental group, 400 patients were randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group with 200 patients in each group. The success rate of two groups were counted, pain scores were got by VAS visual imitation assessment and the results undergoing statistical analysis. Results The success rate was 91.5% in the control group, and 99.5% in the experimental group. Distinguished sig-nificance existed in VAS visual imitation score. Conclusions The rapid vertical straight method is supe-rior to rapid parallel straight method in scalp venipuncture.

Objective To study the feature of theta oscillation during working memory (WM) dysfunction in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods Fifteen MCI patients (MCI group) and 15 healthy subjects for checkup (control group) in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January to November 2016 were recruited. The differences of behavioral results in visual WM tasks were compared between the two groups. Thirty four-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) signals were recorded simultaneously. Short-Time Fourier transform was used to calculate spatial and time-frequency distribution of power and spectral coherence of multi-channel EEGs. Results Compared with control group, MCI group showed significantly longer reaction time and lower accuracy in WM tasks (P<0.01). The analysis of EEGs revealed that the power of Fz channel was the biggest at frontal midline in both groups. And the power density of theta oscillation was lower at frontal electrode sites in MCI group than that of control group ( P<0.01), and theta coherence was significantly decreased in frontal region and between frontal-posterior regions ( P<0.05). Conclusion The absence of theta oscillaton in frontal region may be one of the important reasons of working memory dysfunction for MCI.

Objective To estimate the efficacy and safety of 5-aminolevulinic acid-based photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) in the treatment of lichen sclerosus et atrophicus of the vulva.Methods An open and noncontrolled clinical study was performed.Forty-two patients were enrolled in this study and received ALA-PDT once every two weeks for 2 to 4 times.Follow-up visits were arranged at 2,4 and 8 weeks after initiation of treatment,and patients were evaluated at the baseline (before treatment) and all the follow-up time points for the efficacy and safety of treatment.Results Finally,38 patients completed the trial and 4 patients were lost to follow up.The total response rate was 81.6％ (31/38) at the end of the treatment.The average symptom and sign score in these patients was significantly lower at 2,4 and 8 weeks after initiation of treatment than that before treatment (17.6 ± 10.18,11.6 ± 8.35 and 7.6 ± 5.93 vs.29.3 ± 9.17,t =5.26,8.80,12.22,respectively,all P ＜ 0.01).A significant improvement was also observed in the other aspects,such as skin lesion area,hypopigmentation,erosion/rhagades and itching score at 2,4 and 8 weeks,as well as in skin atrophy at 8 weeks after initiation of treatment compared with those before treatment (all P ＜ 0.05).Local burning sensation was the main adverse reaction to ALA-PDT,and 16％ (6/38) of these patients complained of severe pain during the first treatment.Conclusion ALA-PDT shows favorable efficacy in patients with lichen sclerosus et atrophicus of the vulva with a rapid onset of action.

Objective To investigate the effects of colon dialysis on chronic renal failure(CRF).Methods 120 patients with CRF were randomly divided into two groups and they were given the same conventional therapy including alimentary control,blood pressure control,etc.The A group (colon dialysis group,n=60) was given colon dialysis,the B group (conventional therapy group,n=60) was given conventional therapy for 4 weeks.The serum creatinine(SCr),urea nitrogen,24 h proteinuria were observed in two groups.The therapeutic effects of colon dialysis were assessed by the changes of SCr.Results The colon dialysis and conventional therapy can decrease the SCr from (363.97±82.34) μmol/L to (280.87±87.52) μmol/L and (371.73±87.46) μmol/L to (339.90±68.59) μmol/L respectively.The former was more effective than the latter.The effects of colon dialysis in the renal function compensation stage and decompensation stage were more effective than in renal failure stage but no difference was detected between the former stages.Conclusions The colon dialysis has certain effects to CRF,especially to those with serum creatinine ＜443 μmol/L can get more benefit.

Objective Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are important indicators of cerebral small vessel disease .However, it is still unclear whether endothelial dysfunction is involved in CMBs .The aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between CMBs and soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) in patients with acute ischemic stroke . Methods Based on the results of MRI (3.0 T) susceptibility weighted imaging , we divided patients with first acute ischemic stroke into a CMBs group ( n=63 ) and a non-CMBs group (n=63), and recruited another 45 volunteers with normal MRI findings as controls .We collected and conducted comparative a-nalysis on the demographic data , biochemical variables ( including the sE-selectin level ) , vascular risk factors , and the number of CMBs of the patients . Results Ordinal logistic regression analysis showed a significantly positive correlation between sE -selectin and the number of CMBs (OR=1.062, 95%CI:1.023-1.103, P=0.002), higher systolic blood pressure associated with more CMBs (OR=1.014, 95%CI:1.002-1.025, P=0.021). Conclusion Serum sE-selectin is significantly positively correlated with and can be used as a biological marker for the severity of CMBs .

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor in the treatment of corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis.Methods A randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled clinical trial was carried out.By simple randomization,64 patients with corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis were randomly and equally divided into 2 groups:treatment group topically applying recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel twice a day for 4 consecutive weeks,and control group topically applying the gel vehicle twice a day for 4 consecutive weeks.Clinical symptoms and signs were scored before the treatment and after 1-,2-and 4-week treatment.Meanwhile,the water content of the stratum corneum,skin sebum content and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) of the skin lesions were detected.Results Thirty-one patients in the treatment group and 30 in the control group completed the trial.The clinical symptom and sign scores in the treatment group were significantly lower at week 2 and 4 after starting treatment (1.35 ± 0.55 and 1.00 ± 0.45,respectively) than that before treatment (2.77 ± 0.43,both P ＜ 0.05),as well as lower at week 1 (2.06 ± 0.51),2 and 4 after starting treatment than that in the control group (2.43 ± 0.57,2.17 ± 0.53,1.93 ± 0.45,respectively,all P ＜ 0.05).The treatment group showed significantly increased water content of the stratum corneum at week 4 after starting treatment,significantly increased skin sebum content,but decreased TEWL at week 2 and 4 after starting treatment compared with those before treatment (all P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the control group,the treatment group showed significantly higher skin sebum content at week 2 and 4 after starting treatment,higher water content of the stratum corneum,but lower TEWL at week 4 after starting treatment (all P ＜ 0.05).No adverse reactions were observed in either of the 2 groups.Conclusion Recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor is effective and safe for the treatment of corticosteroid-dependent dermatitis,and contributes to repairing and reconstructing the skin barrier function.

Objective: To investigate the reproductive health status of female workers in a railway system and possible influencing factors. Methods: From January to June, 2016, a cross-sectional epidemiological investigation was performed to collect 2 165 female workers aged 17-55 years. A women’s health questionnaire was used to collect the data on their occupation and health, and their reproductive health status was analyzed. Results: The female workers exposed to occupational hazards had significantly higher incidence rates of gynecological diseases, abnormal menstruation, and infertility than those not exposed to such hazards (χ²=32.29, 12.42, and 4.23, respectively, all P<0.05) . There were significant differences in the incidence rates of gynecological diseases, abnormal menstruation, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and pregnancy complications between the female workers with different working forms and states (χ²=17.19, 23.03, 200.65, and 21.28, respectively, all P<0.05) . There were significant differences in the incidence rates of gynecological diseases, abnormal menstruation, and pregnancy complications between the female workers with different behavioral habits (χ²=15.65, 36.23, and 25.35, respectively, all P<0.05) . The logistic regression analysis showed that exposure to occupational hazards, married state, medium-grade professional title or above, work in shifts, sitting for a long time, standing for a long time, and video operation were risk factors for gynecological diseases, and the prevalence rate of gynecological diseases increased with age. Exposure to occupational hazards, night shifts, staying up late, and sitting for a long time were risk factors for abnormal menstruation. Exposure to occupational hazards was a risk factor for infertility. Medium-grade professional title or above was a risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes. Married state, medium-grade professional title or above, standing for a long time, and high mobility in job form and state were risk factors for pregnancy complications. Conclusion Exposure to occupational hazards, job form and state, and unhealthy behavioral habits may affect reproductive health status in female workers in the railway system.
