1.Lead exposure influence on children's bone mineral density
International Journal of Pediatrics 2013;40(6):610-612
Lead exposure is toxic to children.With the development of industry,lead exposure of children becomes more and more serious.Bone is the major target organ for lead loading.In terms of bone development,childhood is a critical period for the production of peak bone mass,and keeping it normal is important for the measurement of bone health and decreasing the morbidity of osteoporosis.Recent research revealed that children's bone mineral density is affected by elevated level of blood lead and this effect is mainly through the inhibition of the activity of osteoblast cell,the influence on calcium and phosphorus metabolism,and the retardation of children's bone growth.Therefore,the review focuses on the source,toxic effect,and the influence on bone mineral density and its mechanism of children lead exposure.

Objective To study the significance of the prognosis assessment by acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ ),sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score,clinical pulmonary infection score(CPIS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) score in the patients of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Methods The clinical data of 68 cases with VAP in the ICU or RICU were studied. APACHE Ⅱ , SOFA and MODS scores on admission and APACHE Ⅱ , SOFA, CPIS and MODS scores on the first 24-hour of VAP diagnosis were recorded. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUROC ) and Logistic regression were used to estimate the prognostic ability by the four kinds of scoring systems. Results The APACHE Ⅱ , CPIS, MODS and SOFA scores on the first 24-hour of VAP diagnosis were significantly higher in non-survivors than those in survivors. AUROC of APACHE Ⅱ ,SOFA,MODS and CPIS respectively were 0.80,0.75,0.73,0.71. Logistic regression analysis showed that only APACHE Ⅱ> 18 scores on the first 24-hour of VAP diagnosis was an independent predictor of the mortality (OR: 5.7,95% CI: 1.9 - 20.0, P = 0.013). Conclusion The APACHE Ⅱ on the first 24-hour of VAP diagnosis may be a useful index in predicting progress of patients with VAP.

Objective:To construct a short hairpin RNA(shRNA) eukaryotic expression vector of the survivin gene,and investigate its inhibitory effect on the survivin expression in human cervical cancer cells.Methods:We designed and synthesized 2 pairs of survivin-specific small interfering RNA primers(s1 and s2),cloned them into the eukaryotic expression vector pSilencer 2.1-U6 neo by DNA recombined techniques after annealing connection reaction,and transfected them respectively into human cervical cancer cell line HeLa using LipofectAMINE2000 after identificationby restrict endonuclease digestion and DNA sequencing.Then we selected the positive clones by G418 and detected the expression of survivin mRNA by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and that of the survivin protein by Western blot.Results:The survivin shRNA eukaryotic expression vectors pSilencer2.1-s1 and pSilencer2.1-s2 were successfully constructed.Positive clones were obtained by screening with G418 for 24 days,the survivin expression in HeLa cells decreased in different degrees after transfected with pSilencer2.1-s1 and pSilencer2.1-s2,and the latter showed a better interference efficiency.Conclusion:The shRNA eukaryotic expression vector of the survivin gene we constructed,with its improved interfering efficiency,has paved the way for further research on its role in regulating the biological behavior of cervical cancer cells.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of combining neuromuscular joint facilitation (NJF) with floating needle treatment in treating stroke survivors with painful shoulder subluxation.Methods:Thirty-nine stroke survivors with painful shoulder subluxation were randomly divided into an NJF group, a floating needle group and a combination group, each of 13. In addition to the basic treatment for shoulder subluxation and pain (including positioning, physiotherapy, active and passive motor function training, progressive training of the upper limbs, and using shoulder pads to protect the affected shoulders when standing or walking), the 3 groups were also given NJF, floating needle therapy or both as their group names imply six days per week for 4 weeks. Shoulder subluxation was evaluated using ultrasonography to measure the acromion-greater tuberosity distance (AGT). Pain was self-reported using a visual analogue scale. And the Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) was applied to quantify the treatments′ efficacy.Results:Before the treatment, no significant differences were found among the 3 groups in terms of their average AGTs, pain ratings or FMA scores. Afterward, significant improvement was observed in all of the measurements in all 3 groups, with the combination group′s average results significantly better than those of the other two. The combination group′s overall effectiveness was 85%, significantly better than that of NJF group (54%) and the floating needle group (62%).Conclusions:Floating needle treatment combined with NJF and routine rehabilitation can significantly improve motor functioning and relieve the pain of shoulder subluxation after a stroke.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of sub-chronic exposure to deltamethrin(DM) on neural behavior and expression of NMDA receptor in hippocampus of mice.Methods 60 Female SPF Kunming mice were divided into 4 groups and given DM 60 days by gavage.Hot-plate,rotarod,grip strength,hing limb landing foot splay were used to examine the sensory and motor change of mice.Autonomic activity test was used for detecting the functional status of the central nervous system in mice.Passive avoidance test for detection of the behavior changes of learning and memory,and RQ-PCR was employed to measure the expression of NMDA receptor in hippocampus of mice.ResultsThe behavior of sensory and motor of mice sub-chronic exposure to deltamethrin did not have changes significantly(P > 0.05 ).In the test of autonomic activity test,the average of autonomic activity times were (93 ± 18) times,(107 ± 13) times,(105 ±22) times.Compared with the control group,the average of autonomic activity times in middle-and high-dose groups were increased significantly (P < 0.05 ).The latent periods in poisoning groups were (175.4 ±38.4) s,(146.4 ±51.2)s,(132.3 ±45.0) s,and the error times were (0.7 ±0.3)times,( 1.4 ± 0.5 ) times,( 1.8 ± 0.9) times.Compared with the control group,latent periods of high-dose group were decreased and the error times of middle-and high-dose groups were increased significantly (P < 0.05 ).Compared with the control group,the relative expression levels of NR1 and NR2A mRNA in hippocampus of middle and high-dose groups were increased significantly (P< 0.05 ),and the relative expression level of NR2B mRNA in highdose group was decreased significantly(P < 0.05).ConclusionSub-chronic exposure to DM could increase the excitability of mice,damage the function of learning and memory,and influence the expression of NMDA receptor in hippocampus of mice.
