This paper reviewed the existing literatures of executive function in obsessive -compulsive disorder (OCD) patients, and critically examined four neurocognitive tests in the recent ten years' studies, including stroop task, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test(WCST),London tower, and Trail-making test. In addition, we discuss the problems occurred in the past experiments, and put forward suggestions for further studies.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of abnormal eating behaviors among middle school girls in Beijing and the psychological factors having influence on these behaviors Methods: HDI and ESC-21 were used to investigate 636 female middle school students in Beijing Results: (1) According to the BMI of the subjects, 80 3% of the subjects answered that they had paid attention to their weight and stature (2) The mean BMI of the subjects were 19 38, which is in the normal range, but their ideal body mass index(IBMI)was lower than the normal standard (IBIM

In this paper, an improved empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithm for phonocardiogram (PCG) signal de-noising is proposed. Based on PCG signal processing theory, the S1/S2 components can be extracted by combining the improved EMD-Wavelet algorithm and Shannon energy envelope algorithm. Firstly, by applying EMD-Wavelet algorithm for pre-processing, the PCG signal was well filtered. Then, the filtered PCG signal was saved and applied in the following processing steps. Secondly, time domain features, frequency domain features and energy envelope of the each intrinsic mode function's (IMF) were computed. Based on the time frequency domain features of PCG's IMF components which were extracted from the EMD algorithm and energy envelope of the PCG, the S1/S2 components were pinpointed accurately. Meanwhile, a detecting fixed method, which was based on the time domain processing, was proposed to amend the detection results. Finally, to test the performance of the algorithm proposed in this paper, a series of experiments was contrived. The experiments with thirty samples were tested for validating the effectiveness of the new method. Results of test experiments revealed that the accuracy for recognizing S1/S2 components was as high as 99.75%. Comparing the results of the method proposed in this paper with those of traditional algorithm, the detection accuracy was increased by 5.56%. The detection results showed that the algorithm described in this paper was effective and accurate. The work described in this paper will be utilized in the further studying on identity recognition.

Objective To investigate the effect of Yiqihuayu herb on serum NF-κB p65 and myocardin in patients with hysteromyoma. Methods 56 cases patients with hysteromyoma were selected and divided into two groups.The control group of 28 cases were treated with mifepristone, and the experiment group of 28 cases were treated with Yiqihuayu herb.The clinical curative effect, uterine myoma volume, expression of NF-κB p65 and myocardin level were compared after treatment.Results The clinical curative effect of the experiment group was 89.29%, which was higher than 67.86% of control group(χ2 =3.82,P<0.05).Compared with control group, NF-κB p65 expression level was lower(P<0.05), myocardin expression level was higher ( P<0.05 ) , the volume of uterus and uterine myoma were smaller ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion Yiqihuayu recipe could reduce the expression of NF-κB p65 in serum, increase myocardin level, and reduce the volume of uterus and myoma, which has good clinical curative effect in the treatment of patients with hysteromyoma.

Objective To investigate effect serum Bcl-2 and Bax in patients with myoma of uterus by Jiang Sanqi.Methods 92 patients with uterine fibroids were selected,and randomly divided into experiment group and control group.Control group of 46 cases treated with goserelin once 3.6 mg every month,subcutaneous injection,mifepristone 12.5 mg,once a day for oral treatment.Experiment group of 46 cases treated with Jiang Sanqi,0.5 g/kg,once a day for boiling water, for 3 months.The level of Bcl-2 and Bax in serum, clinical efficiency, diameter of tumor and complications were compared after treatment.Results The levels of Bcl-2 of experimental group patients was lower than control group, the level of Bax was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05).The total efficiency of experimental group(89.13%)was higher than that of the control group(71.74)%(P<0.05). The experimental group tumor diameter was smaller than the control group(P<0.05).Complications of the experiment was lower than the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Jiang Sanqi can significantly reduce the serum Bcl-2 of patients with uterine fibroids,increase the expression level of Bax, reduce the uterine fibroids diameter effect, reduce the incidence rate of hormone suppression of drug side effects, has a great significance in clinical.

Human exposure factor is one of the important parameters in environmental health risk assessment models. Proper selection of the exposure factors will contribute significantly to improve the accuracy of health risk assessment. This paper reviewed recent application of some key exposure factors for environmental health risk assessment in the USA, EU, Japan, etc. Some suggestions were proposed on focuses and trends of the related research in near future in China, based on the further analysis for the exposure factors of Chinese population.

Objective To assess dermatoscopic characteristics of lichen sclerosus(LS). Methods Dermatoscopy was performed to observe 27 genital or extragenital porcelain-white skin lesions in 15 outpatients with confirmed LS. Results As dermatoscopy showed, of the 27 skin lesions, 24 showed white-yellowish structureless areas, 25 linear vessels, 27 white patches, 17 keratotic plugs. Characteristic cloverleaf-like structure was observed in 7 skin lesions in 4 patients, which was consistent with LS. Conclusion Patients with LS show atypical clinical manifestations, but specific dermatoscopic patterns.

Objective To analyze the diagnosis and treatment of prostatic abscess,thus to improve the level of the treatment of prostatic abscess.Methods The clinical manifestations, imaging examination and treatment of prostatic abscess patients were analyzed.11 cases were taken by transrectal puncture drainage,transurethral electric cutting and application of sensitive antibiotic conservative treatment.Results 1 case was cured after medicine conser-vative treatment.The rest 10 patients,7 cases underwent ultrasound guided by transrectal puncture drainage,3 cases of transurethral electric cutting prostatic abscess to top decompression.Review showed that 8 cases of abscess obviously decreased or disappeared,2 cases had no significant change,again the puncture drainage after cured.Follow-up of 3-12 months,no recurrence observed.Conclusion Prostatic abscess is uncommon clinical abscess according to size, location and the result of bacterial culture +drug susceptibility, and combining the patients'physical condition to choose a suitable treatment method.

Objective To differentiate Chinese medical syndromes of chronic renal Failure by objective laboratory indexes. Method Data of 312 cases were collected through a retrospective survey and these cases were divided into five Chinese medical syndromes according to an authorized criterion. Laboratory examination indexes of all syndromes were disposed with analysis of variance and discriminant analysis in turn. Result Discriminant functions of four syndromes were worked out and the accuracy of the functions was 60%. Conclusion Differentiation of Chinese medical syndromes should use modern techniques for reference on the base of traditional methods. And through it, a new way even a new system of diagnosis for Chinese medical syndromes in which traditional and modern methods are perfectly combined may be found out.
