Objective To develop a smoke inhalation unit simulating airtight cabin.Methods We designed a completed smoke inhalation unit composed of smoke generation cabinet,circulation pipe line and inhalation cabinet.The unit was verified with 42 SD rats inhaled with smoke generated from combustion of 9 nonmetal materials used in a airtight cabin.The rats were randomly divided into experimental group and 5 inhalation groups,with 7 rats in each group.The concentrations of CO,O2 and acid gases in the inhalation cabinet were analyzed.The activities and mortality of the rats within 7 d were recorded.COHb% of 21 rats in ten-minute inhalation groups was detected quickly after exposure.Results The concentration of smoke increased with the time of combustion and kept constant on each time point.The degree of intoxication in rats increased with the time of inhalation,and COHb% of ten-minute inhalation groups showed good reproducibility.Conclusion Our developed unit can simulate the smoke generation and intoxication in airtight cabin and keep good reproducibility of animal injury.

ObjectiveTo explore the influence of gender,age and types of peer acceptance on the ability of theory of mind among rural parent-absent children.Methods 312 rural parent-absent children participated in the study (including 162 boys,150 girls; 102 members of 8 year-old,119 members of 9 year-old,and 91 members of 10 year-old).Their ability of theory of mind and types of peer acceptance were examined by the 2nd-order False-beliefs Tasks and Peer nomination.The date were analyzed by Multivariate analysis of variance (ANOVA),LSD checkout and Simple effect analysis.ResultsThere were statistically significant effects on ages in theory of mind,types of peer acceptance ( F=4.57,P=0.011 ; F =3.82,P =0.005 ) and the interaction among gender,ages and types of peer acceptance(F=3.20,P =0.042; F =2.50,P =0.043 ).The least significant different(LSD) assay of the ability of theory of mind age and types of peer acceptance shows:there were statistically significant lies in the divergence of age 8 and age 9 group,and also in age 9 and age 10 group,(I-J =-0.51,P =0.016;I-J =- 0.90,P =0.000 ).In the same way,there were also statistically significant lies in the divergence of the ability of theory of mind performance-popular and rejected ( I-J =1.05,P =0.001 ) ; popular and neglected ( I-J =0.84,P =0.003 ) ; popular and controversial( I-J =1.03,P =0.002) ; rejected and average ( I-J =- 0.66,P =0.02 ) ; controversial and average ( I-J =- 0.64,P=0.034).Results of simple effect shows:there were statistically significant lies in the gender divergence of the 9 age group (F =4.98,P =0.026),the age divergence of girls (F =7.50,P =0.001 ),the gender divergence of controversial groups (F=5.76,P =0.017 ),the peer acceptance divergence of boys(F=4.97,P =0.001),and also the peer acceptance divergence of girls(F =2.54,P =0.04).Conclusion There is substantial connection between the ability of theory of mind of rural parent-absent children and ages and types of peer acceptance.

OBJECTIVETo observe the differences in timely effectiveness of immediate analgesia on acute migraine between electroacupuncture (EA) at shaoyang meridian points and non-meridian points.

METHODSThe randomized controlled trial method was adopted. One hundred and ten cases of acute migraine were randomized into two groups. 55 cases in each one. In the observation group, EA was applied to Fengchi (GB 20), Waiguan (TE 5), etc. In the control group. EA was applied to non-meridian points. Only one treatment was given, and the nee dies were retained for 30 min in the two groups. Separately. at 10 time points, named before acupuncture, in 5 min, 10 min. 20 min and 30 min (at the moment of needle removal), 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h and 8 h after acupuncture, the pain intensity numerical rating scale (PI-NRS) was adopted to evaluate the pain severity and the adverse reac tion was recorded.

RESULTS(1) The effective rate of imnmediate analgesia was 87. 3% (48/55) in the observation group. significantly higher than 52.7% (29/55) in the control group (P<0.01). (2) NRS of each group was re duced at each time point, from 5 min to 8 h after acupuncture (all P<0.01). (3) NRS score at 30 min after acu puncture in the control group was obviously lower than that in the observation group (P<0.05), but the scores in 2 h, 4 h, 6 h and 8 h after acupuncture in the observation group were lower apparently than those in the control group (all P<0. 01). The differences in the scores in 5 min, 10 min, 20 min and 1 h after acupuncture were not significant (all P>0. 05). (4) For the reducing amplitude of NRS score at the same time point after acupuncture, the results in 20 min, 30 min and 1 h in the control group were higher apparently than those in the observation group (all P<0. 05). But, in 2 h, 4 h, 6 h and 8 h, the results in the observation group were higher apparently than those in the control group (all F<0.05). The differences in 5 min and 10 min after acupuncture were not significant (both P>0. 05). (5) In 24 h after acupuncture, the recurrence rate of migraine was 12. 7% (7/55) in the observation group, which was lower obviously than 34. 5% (19/55) in the control group (P<0. 05). The adverse reaction was not found in the two groups.

CONCLUSIONEA at the shaoyang meridian points achieves the definite immediate analgesia effect on acute migraine and presents the time effectiveness of analgesia.

Objective:To investigate the arginine (Arg) sites in splicing factor 2/alternative splicing factor (SF2/ASF) methylated by protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1). Methods:Wild-type and Arg93,Arg97,Arg109 mutant SF2/ASF plasmids were constructed,and GST-PRMT1,GST-SF2/ASF and arginine mutant GST-SF2/ASF fusion proteins were induced and purified. Methylation activity of PRMT1 on wild-type or mutant SF2/ASF protein and methylated sites of SF2/ASF were examined by methylation assay. The effect of SF2/ASF methylation on its subcellular localization was analyzed by immunofluorescence assay.Results:PRMT1 induced methylation of SF2/ASF at arginine,and PRMT1 did not methylate SF2/ASF when SF2/ASF was mutant at Arg93,Arg97 or Arg109,with Arg97 mutation showing the most profound inhibitory effect. Methylation of SF2/ASF did not affect its subcellular localization.Conclusion:SF2/ASF is a newly identified substrate of PRMT1; Arg93,Arg97 and Arg 109 are the three methylation sites in SF2/ASF,and Arg97 is the main methylation site. Methylation of SF2/ASF does not affect its subcellular localization.

Objective To investigate the application value of identification of the scalp surface locations of cerebral ischemia lesions before direct revascularization for moyamoya disease and to design surgical approaches according to this by using the fusion of single photon emission computed tomography ( SPECT) cerebral perfusion imaging with CT imaging. Methods The clinical data of 13 adult patients with ischemic-type moyamoya disease underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery were analyzed retrospectively. SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging was fused with CT imaging of the same machine before procedure. The lesions of ischemia were located on the cortical surface. The surgical approaches were designed at the center of the ischemic lesions. The patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months after procedure. The improvement of clinical symptoms and cerebral perfusion of the patients were observed after operation. Results One patient had perioperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome,and the others did not have any perioperative complications. At one-month follow-up, the improvement of symptoms in 4 patients were excellent,in 5 were good,in 4 were fair,and none was poor. At 6 to 12 month follow-up,the improvement of symptoms in 9 patients were excellent,in 4 were good,and none was poor. The postoperative visual SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging analysis suggested that the cerebral perfusion was improved significantly as compared with before procedure in all patients. Quantitative analysis:There was significant difference in target ischemic lesions between preoperative Fb and postoperative Fb ([2. 13±1. 06]% vs. [4. 13±2. 09]%;P<0. 05). There was significant difference between preoperative Fb and Fe ([2. 46±1. 97]% vs. [2. 13±1. 06]%;P<0. 05). The postoperative BFCR was [67. 57±3. 78]%( >50%) , which indicated that the efficacy of the procedure was remarkable. The superficial temporal arteries fed to brain of the patients were observed after procedure by using the head CT angiography. The postoperative head MRI reexamination showed no new infarcts occurred at 6 months. Conclusion Combine SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging with CT imaging to design surgical approach for superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery may improve the efficacy and reduce the risks of operation.

Objective To study the different types of medication guidance for community doctors in the context of essential medicine system,and analyze its influencing factors.Methods SPSS 1 9.0 was called into play for statistical analysis of data gathered,and the medication guidance behavior of the doctors were graded on the two dimensions of personal willingness and practical action.With important quadrant method,the medication guidance behavior of such doctors was classified,while the multiple linear regression was used to study the influencing factors.Results Most of the community doctors of the fourteen counties fall into the area of “high willingness and less action”,with only a few falling into the area of the “high willingness and more action”. Major influencing factors of their willingness on medication guide were found to include impacts on job autonomy,attention to essential medicine system, and the forms to improve income.Major factors of the doctors'actions on medication guide include awareness of essential medicines,awareness of essential medicines catalog,and training outcomes. Conclusion The community doctors have high personal willingness for medication guidance related to essential medicines,but only a number of them carried it in their work.Therefore,it is necessary to take actions to strengthen awareness of the doctors for medication guidance and encourage them to carry it out.

BACKGROUND:MRI characterized as non-invasion, high resolution, high sensitivity and specificity to injury has become another important means for diagnosis of knee joint disease folowing the arthroscopy. OBJECTIVE: To explore the effective evaluation on the knee meniscus injury diagnosis, by comparing the results of MRI and arthroscopy of the knee meniscus. METHODS: Clinical data of 206 patients with meniscus injury were retrospectively analyzed. Every case was subjected to MRI and the arthroscopy. The findings of arthroscopy were considered as the golden standard. Then, the sensitivity, specificity and coincidence rate of MRI in the diagnosis of meniscus injury were calculated. The chi-square analysis was used to evaluate the MRI and arthroscopy in the diagnosis of meniscus injury. The Kappa values were used to test the consistency of MRI with arthroscopy in the diagnosis of meniscus injury. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:For levels 0 and I meniscus injury, the coincidence rate of MRI was 97%; for level II meniscus injury, the coincidence rate of MRI was 91.1%, and there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). For level III meniscus injury, the sensitivity, specificity, concordance rate and Youden index of MRI were 92.9%, 94.4%, 93.7% and 87.3%, respectively. By the consistency checking, the value of Kappa was 0.874 and χ2 so there was a high consistency checking between the data of MRI and arthroscopy (P=0.000). MRI is a noninvasive diagnostic method for meniscus injury. For patients with levels I and II meniscus injury on MRI, arthroscopy should be cautiously adopted; however, for patients with level III meniscus injury on MRI, arthroscopy should be done as early as possible. Arthroscopic observation is more intuitive that enables to make accurate judgments of meniscus injury to reduce the rate of misdiagnosis.

Objective To explore the clinical features and diagnostic method of primary natural killer( NK)/T cell meningeal lymphoma. Methods An unusual case of a 19-year-old male with primary NK/T cell meningeal lymphoma was reported. His clinical presentation and laboratory findings were discussed. The related literatures have been reviewed. Results The patient presented with diplopia,headache, vomiting and facial drooping at the onset, followed by progressive pain and weakness of the four limbs. Cerebrospinal fluid showed significant increase in pressure, leukocytes number, levels of protein,normal glucose and adenosine deaminase, negative tuberculosis antibody and sterile staining. In cerebrospinal fluid cytological analysis, May-Grunwald-Gimsa staining showed large number of atypical lymphocytes with irregular nucleus and nuclear fission, Ki-67 immunostaining showed extensive proliferative activity of the lymphoid cells. Flow cytometric immunophenotypic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid indicated 97. 98 percent of cells expressed surface CD3, CD7, CD56, CD2, CD5, and partially expressed CD8. This was a rare immunophenotype for NK/T-cell. Cranial MRI with gadolinium showed thickening of the trigeminal nerve with slight enhancement and diffuse leptomeningeal enhancement. CT of the chest and abdomen and bone marrow biopsies were negative. He was diagnosed as primary NK/T cell meningeal lymphoma based on the clinical features and related examination. Conclusions Primary NK/T cell meningeal lymphoma is a rare type of primary central nervous lymphomas which has special immunophenotype. The clinical features include progressive raised intra-cranial pressure, multiple cranial and spinal nerve involvements. Cerebrospinal fluid cytological analysis and flow cytometric immunophenotypic analysis are key work-up for diagnosis. It has poor response to chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
