The incidence of severe acute pancreatitis in children is lower.But it has abrupt onset and atypical symptoms.The fatality rate is relatively high.This paper will review the progress on the diagnosis and treatment of severe acute pancreatitis.

Acupuncture treatment of insomnia has been reported for many years,but its validity remains controversial up to now.In the present review,the authors took "Acupuncture","Insomnia" as the key words to do a literature search from databases in both Chinese and English via computer retrieval system and also conducted a hand-made retrieval from journals of Chinese medicine as Chinese Acu-moxibustion,and collections of theses of the related academic conferences.Then,they made a systemic evaluation on the original articles from methodology,diagnosis,criteria for the enlisted and excluded patients,intervention methods of acupuncture and control groups,standards for assessing the curative efficacy,follow-up visit,etc.Of the retrieved 80 clinical articles,20 are RCT(randomized controlled trails) composed of 1907 cases,including 4 high-quality trails and 16 lower-quality trails.Regarding the assessment of the therapeutic effect,measuring scales are often adopted in overseas studies,while in domestic researches,self-drawn standards are frequently used.In conclusion,there have had no high-quality clinical trails about acupuncture treatment of primary insomnia in China at the present,and the related evaluating methods could not definitely confirm the efficacy of acupuncture in relieving insomnia.Therefore,a strict and scientific clinical trail scheme being in line with evidence-based medicine is urgently needed in the coming studies on acupuncture treatment of primary insomnia.

Objective:To establish and validate a new model of health belief model(HBM) combined with theory of planned behavior(TPB).Methods:Path analysis was applied to set up a new model predicting iron-fortified soy sauce consumption behavior using baseline survey data among women in rural and urban areas in Beijing,and the model was validated in follow-up survey.Results:It was proved that health values had powerful direct effect on behavior identity and had relatively strong direct effect on attitudes towards behavior;behavior identity had strong effect on behavior barriers,mostly in a direct way,and on behavior intention in a direct or indirect way;control belief was an important external factor influencing behavior intention;behavior intention was the most direct and most important one of factors influencing actual behavior;and convenience to buy was an important external factor influencing actual beha-vior.Conclusion:The integrated model of TPB and HBM explains behavior better and may be attempted in other similar researches.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of traditional Chinese mental intervention in treating post-apoplexy depressive disorder and its effects on recovery of activities of daily living(ADL).Methods 64 cases of post-apoplexy depressive disorder patients of light or moderate degree(evaluated by HAMD scale)were randomly separated into an experiment group and a control group.On the basis of identical basic clinical treatments,the experiment group was treated with traditional Chinese mental intervention,and the results were evaluated by HAMD scale and ADL scale at the 40th,the 70th and the 100th day.Results There were no differences in marks of the two scale between the experiment group and the control group at the beginning(P＞0.05).At the 40th day,the HAMD scale mark was 13.04±4.86 in the experiment group and 17.92±5.82 in the control group,showing significant differences(P＜0.05)between the two groups.At the same time,the ADL scale mark was 61.85±11.73 in the experiment group and 53.02±10.54 in the control group,showing significant differences between the two groups too(P＜0.05).At the 70th day and 100th day,the differences became much more notable(P＜0.01).Conclusion Traditional Chinese mental intervention was effective in promoting the motor function and activities of daily living and relieving the depress disorder for post-apoplexy depressive disorder.Post-apoplexy depress disorder patients should be treated with Chinese traditional mental intervention as soon as possible.

Since the oral rehydration salts solution(ORS) has been used to treat acute diarrhea of children, there are different kinds of ORS in order to satisfy the need of clinical work. They are the initial WHO-ORS, other substances-supplemented ORS and the reduced osmolarity ORS, each of which has their own efficiency and advantage.

Objective To investigate the association of serum ferritin and hemoglobin with the pathogenesis of primary restless legs syndrome(RLS). Methods Thirty-five patients with primary restless legs syndrome and twenty insomnia controls were included in this study. The level of serum ferritin and hemoglobin were measured, and the data have been analyzed using t-test. Results The level of serum ferritin in the primary RLS patients (89.77μg/L (SD:48.52)) was significantly lower than in the contruls (123.36 μg/L (SD:35.06)) (t=-2.713,P <0.01), whereas the level of hemoglobin have no statistical difference between the RLS group (142.77 g/L (SD: 11.79)) and the control group (139.05 g/L (SD: 12.33)) (t = 1.108, P > 0.05). Conclu-sions The decrease of serum ferritin may be a risk factor of primary restless legs syndrome, but the level of hemo-globin is not associated with primary restless legs syndrome.

Objective To investigate the features of patients with cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies in primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome (pSS) with the retrospective method.Methods Seventy eight pSS patients were studied.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) indirect immunofluorescence was used to measure anti-CCP antibodies.The patients with and without anti-CCP antibodies were correspondingly classified as autoantibody-positive and negative pSS groups.Clinical and laboratory features were compared between autoantibody-negative and positive group.Results (1) Seven (9.0％) of pSS patients had positive anti-CCP antibody.No significant difference was found in sex,ages,and disease course between autoantibody-nagative and positive pSS patients.(2) The anti-CCP-positive pSS was associated with the rates of decayed tooth,fatigue,dry mouth,dry eyes,and tender of joint (P ＜ 0.05).Whereas,the antiCCP-negative pSS was not significantly related to fever and mumps (P ＞ 0.05).(3)From serologic characteristics aspects,the anti-CCP-positive patients showed higher level of tender of joint than the anti-CCP-negative patients.No significant difference was found in white blood cell (WBC),hemoglobin (HGB),platelet (PLT),erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),C-reactive protein (CRP),immunoglobulin A (IgA),IgG,IgM,and rheumatoid factor (RF) between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The anti-CCP-positive patients were 9％ ofpSS patients,and were more likely to occur tender of joint with higher level of tender of joint.
