Objective To screen potential serum HCC associated proteins with low molecular weight and low abundance for better understanding the pathological mechanism of HCC and discovering new biomarkers.Methods All serum samples were collected from 81 HBV-related HCC patients,43 chronic hepatitis B patients and 36 cirrhosis patients.Serum protein fingerprint profiles were first generated by selected WCX2 protein chip integrating with SELDI-TOF-MS,and then normalized and aligned by Ciphergen SELDI Software 3.1.1 with Biomarker Wizard.Comparative analysis of the intensity of corresponding protein fingerprint peaks in normalized protein spectra was performed.Some protein peaks with significant difference among HCC,cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B groups were found.The reproducibility of the SELDI system was assessed before serum protein fingerprint profiles analysis.Results The intra-and inter-assay CV for intensity and m/z in this SELDI system were 17.46% and 0.024%,and 17.74% and 0.024% respectively.Total 128 protein fingerprint peaks between 2 000 to 30 000 Da were identified under the condition of signal to noise＞5 and minimum threshold for cluster＞20%.Eighty-seven proteins were found to significantly expressed between HCC and cirrhosis groups(P＜0.05).Of the above differential proteins,forty-five proteins had changes greater than two fold,including 15 up-regulated proteins and 30 downregulated proteins in HCC sera.Between HCC and chronic hepatitis B groups,nine of fifty-two differential proteins(P＜0.05) had intensities of more than two folds,including 2 up-regulated proteins and 7 downregulated proteins in HCC sera.Between cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis B groups,twenty-eight of seventynine significantly differential proteins(P＜0.05) changed greater than two folds in intensity,including 17 up-regulated proteins in cirrhosis seru and 11 down-regulated proteins in chronic hepatitis B sera.Analysis of above leading differential proteins among three diseases using subtraction difference mode,the 5 common down-regulated proteins 2 870,3 941,2 688,3 165 and 5 483 m/z in HCC sera and 2 common up-regulated proteins 3 588 and 2 017 m/z in cirrhosis and HCC sera were screened.But no statistic difference in the level of protein 2 017m/z was found between HCC group and normal group inour previous study.Conclusion Because the interference of unspecific proteins from hepatitis B and cirrhosis could be eliminated partly in HCC sera through subtraction difference analysis,these 6 common differential proteins (2 870,3 941,2 688,3 165,5 483,3 588 m/z)have obvious advantages of increased specificity for evaluating the pathological state of HCC and might become promising candidate biomarkers in the diagnosis of HCC.

Objective:By analyzing the norm data results of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Fourth Edition (WAIS-Ⅳ) in China,to prove the validity of the procedure and methods during the norming development.Methods:The whole process of the revision of WAIS-Ⅳ,the development of computer-assisted system and norm sampling plan,were introduced in more detail,and the distribution of actual norm data of 1757 cases was analyzed.Results:For area distribution,compared with planned sampling number,the number from North and Northeast China was statistically significant different (x2 =78.02,P ＜0.01).For age stages distribution,most of cases conformed to the requirements of sampling,except that some cases including high-level educational cases aged 16-17 years and above 65 years,and low-level educational cases aged 30-34 years were less than the planned sampling number.For gender distribution,male subjects were more,but there was no statistically significant difference between male and female subjects (x2 =228,P =0.131).For educational degree distribution,the sampling conformed to the requirements of sampling plan (x2 =2.74,P =0.603).For occupation,resident years and registered permanent residence,and the sample was basically representative.Conclusion:The process of the revision of the Chinese version of WAIS-Ⅳ is appropriate,and actual norm sampling basically conforms to planned sample distribution,providing the sufficient representativeness and reliability for national norm data of WAIS-Ⅳ.

Objective To evaluate cognitive impairment and performance-based skills and to explore their rela?tionships with clinical phenotypes in drug-na?ve first-episode patients with schizophrenia. Methods One hundred and forty-five inpatients and 65 healthy controls matched for age, gender and education were recruited. The MATRICS Con?sensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB), Stroop, digit span test, emotional recognition test, University of California, San Diego, Performance-based Skill Assessment (UPSA) and Positive Negative Syndrome Scale scale (PANSS) were used to evaluate cognitive function, life skill and symptoms, respectively. Results Compared with the controls, total score of MCCB and scores of 10 subscales, scores of digit span, emotional recognition and Stroop were significantly lower in patients (all P<0.05). The UPSA total score and scores of financial skill and communication skill were lower in patients than in controls (all P<0.05). Verbal memory, visual memory , Stroop, communication skill scores and total UPSA standard score were sig?nificantly higher in patients with paranoid subtype of schizophrenia than in patients with non-paranoid subtype of schizo? phrenia (all P<0.05). The score of MCCB associated with education years (OR=1.29, 95%CI: 1.13~1.47) and PANSS (OR=0.95, 95%CI:0.92~0.97). Conclusions First-episode, drug-naive patients with schizophrenia have markedly cog?nitive and performance-based skills deficits, which are associated with clinical symptoms. These deficits are differences between paranoid subtype and non-paranoid subtype of schizophrenia.

Objective: To develop the mental health knowledge questionnaire in order to know about the awareness of mental health knowledge in non-psychiatric clinicians. Methods: A sample of the 641 non-psychiatric clinicians from 2 tertiary general hospitals, 2 second-class general hospitals, and 1 community hospital were used for item analysis and internal consistency test; 38 cases were selected for the re-test interval of 2 weeks to test the test-retest reliability. And totally 99 psychiatrists finished the survey as controls. The awareness rates between the non-psychiatric and psychliatric clinicians were compared. Results: The questionnaire included 46 items and consis-ted of 6 subscales, involving anxiety, schizophrenia, depression, dyssomnia and psychological counseling, or-ganic brain disorder, and recognition for mental health service situation in general hospital The results of confirma-tory factor analysis showed that the ratio of chi-square and degree of freedom was below 3. The fitting indexes except GFI and AGFI were more than 0.90. The Cronbach's alpha coefficients ranged from 0.73 to 0.89, and test-retest Pearson correlation coefficient of reliabifity ranged from 0.59 to 0.78. Awareness rate was 47.6% in general hospital and 90.9% in psychiatric hospitals. Conclusion: The mental health knowledge questionnaire has good psychometric properties and may be applied in clinical studies.

Objective To appraise and compare protein expression profiles in sera of patients without or with recurrence following liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using SELDI-TOF-MS technique,and establish the diagnostic and predictive model. Methods A total of 76 sera (41 from disease free survival patients and 35 from recurrence individuals) were collected pretransplantation and differentially expressed proteins were identified by SELDI-TOF-MS. The intensity values for each peak were analyzed by Biomarker Wizard Software to screen serum proteome biomarkers related to the recurrence post-transplantation. By using Biomarker Patterns Software, the classification trees were generate. from randomly selected samples (30 fingerprints obtained from each group). The sensitivity and specificity of best decision tree were then chosen for blind test with 16 samples (5 from recurrence individuals and 11 from recurrence-free survival patients). Results There were significant differences only in tumor size and the presence of vascular invasion between recurrence group and recurrence-free survival group (P＜0.05). According to serum protein fingerprints, a total of 368 protein peaks were identified at the mass-to-charge ratio (M/Z) value ranging from 2000 to 300 00. There were 22 significant differential proteins between two groups. Among them, 9 proteins were up-regulated and 13 proteins were down-regulated -espectively in recurrence group. The intensity values of differential proteins were input into BPS for classification tree analysis and the best performing tree could distinguish two groups successfully. As a result of blind assessment for this model,a sensitivity of 80.0 % (4/5) and specificity of 72.7 % (8/11) were obtained. Conclusion Some of differential proteins screened by SELDI-TOF-MS technique in the serum may be correlated with the prognoses of liver transplantation patients with HCC. The decision tree may be useful for the clinical application of formulating the indication for liver transplantation, detecting extrahepatic micrometastasis and setting up the diagnostic and treatment strategies.

Objective To explore the relationship of intelligence among memory, sustained attention and executive function of schizophrenic patients. Methods 120 schizophrenic inpatients and 60 healthy subjects matched in age, gender and years of education with the patients were assessed with Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-fourth edition (WAIS-IV) and Wechsler Memory Scale-fourth edition (WMS-IV), Continuous Performance Test (CPT), Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST). Results The intelligence quotient (IQ), memory quotient (MQ), scores of CPT and WCST were poor in the patients (P<0.05). IQ was correlated with MQ (r=0.837, P<0.01), the scores of CPT (r=0.613, P<0.01) and WCST (r=0.466, P<0.01). The scores of CPT and MQ were the independent factors related with IQ (P<0.001).Conclusion There is intelligence impairment in schizophrenics, which may related with the impairment of memory and sustained attention.

Objective To explore cognitive change in schizophrenic patients with concomitant metabolism syndrome,and to provide theory basis for early intervention and treatment.Methods According to inclusion standard,56 schizophrenic inpatients with metabolism syndrome and 56 schizophrenic inpatients without metabolism syndrome were included.The matrics consensus cognitive battery(MCCB),stroop test,digit span,UPSA-B were used to assess the cognitive function.Results There were significant differences for test scores of symbol coding subtest,verbal memory subtest,digit sequence subtest,Maze subtest,continue performance among MCCB between schizophrenic patients with and without metabolism syndrome(27.07±10.46 vs 32.18±12.12,16.04±5.07 vs18.71±6.02,13.39±5.18 vs 15.79±5.48,1.38±0.66 vs 1.7±0.68,all P＜0.05),as well as stroop test and digit span test(31.14±11.68 vs 36.57±13.32,13.77±3.64 vs 15.82±4.38,P＜0.05 for both).Conclusion The schizophrenic patients with metabolism syndrome have severer cognitive impairment than those without metabolism syndrome.

Objective To investigate the memory characteristics and related factors of patients with mental retardation. Methods 73 patients with mental retardation (patient group) and 73 normal subjects (control group) matched with the patient group were respectively tested with Wechsler Memory Scale-Fourth Edition of Chinese Version (WMS-IV). Results The scores of each subtest and composite scores of WMS-IV were significantly lower in the patient group than in the control group (P<0.01). All the composite scores positively correlated with each other in the patient group (r=0.38-0.90, P<0.01) and in the control group (r=0.31-0.94, P<0.01). Age and education level positively correlated with all the composite scores (except the Visual Working Memory Index) in the patient group (P<0.05). Conclusion The patients with mental retardation present an overall decline in memory, especially in the immediate memory. The memory function in patients is related with their ages and education levels.

Objective To investigate the intellectual characteristics and related factors for patients with mental retardation. Methods 118 patients with mental retardation and 118 normal subjects were assessed with Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-fourth edition of Chinese (WAIS-Ⅳ). Results The full intelligence quotient (FIQ), index and scores of subtests were significantly lower in the patients than in the controls (P<0.01), especially for those of working memory and processing speed index. The difference in percentage of significance between verbal comprehension and working memory was higher (P<0.05). The FIQ and some index of patients positively correlated with age, education level and their parents' education level (P<0.01). Conclusion The patients with mental retardation present an overall decline in intelligence,especially in the working memory and processing speed. The mental development is unbalanced in some patients, that the verbal comprehension is relatively better than working memory. The intelligence of patients with mental retardation may be related with their age, education level and their parents' education level.
