Objective To study the fibrous capsule structure and its change after expansion.Methods Twelve minipigs were chosen for establishing the animal models of conventional intermittent tissue expansion (CITE) and continuous pressure tissue expansion (CPTE). The capsule samples were taken for measurement and histological examination.Results The thickness and the contraction rates of capsules in CPTE group were significantly less than those of CITE group. The capsule consisted of four layers, in which a large amount of collagen and elastic fibers existed and some small arteries, veins and capillaries were well developed. After expanded flaps were transplanted, capsules contained in flaps were partially degenerated except elastic fiber layer and fibrolaminar layer, but capsules on the wound bed almost all degenerated. Conclusion The results suggest that capsules have contractive and blood supply abilities. Capsulectomy is able to decrease flap contraction. Large expanded flaps are better to have the capsule reserved. No efforts shall be done to the capsules on wound beds.

Objective To investigate the cell dynamic changes of conventional intermittent tissue expansion (CITE) and continuous pressure controlled tissue expansion (CPTE). Methods Domestic pigs were chosen for CITE and CPTE models. Immunohistochemical technique was used to detect proliferative cells, DNA fragments in situ labeling for apoptotic cells, and H E stain for total fibroblast counting. Results Proliferative index of basal cell increased during expansion. The peak value of 78.5% reached at the ninth day in the CITE group versus 84.2 % at fourth day in the CPTE group. Proliferation index in both groups decreased after expansion. Fibroblast proliferation, apoptosis and total fibroblast density increased slowly in both groups during and after expansion. At the sixth day, total fibroblast densities in CITE group (38.1 cells/H) and in CPTE group (40.9 cells/H) were significantly increased, compared with 34.93 cells/H in the normal skin. There were obvious proliferation and apoptosis phenomena in epidermal cells and skin adnexa. Conclusion Tissue expansion has both effects of proliferation and apoptosis on cell dynamics. Continuous tissue expansion can induce tissues growing much effectively.

Newborn brain damage is the main cause of new-borns' death and disabilities.Current research difficulties lie in analyzing characteristics of cerebral injuries,making objective prognosis and early intervention,as well as analysis of therapeutic effects after recovery.Since subjects are not requested to complete complex tasks while doing resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) tests,rs-fMRI is reckoned to be suitable for neonatal brain function research.So far,most rs-fMRI reports regarding cerebral injury are for adults,with only a few have been done on neonates.Foreign research are mainly focused on new borns' brain development.If relevant rs-fMRI research can be done on newborn brain damage,it would be helpful to accurately evaluate structure and function of patients' brain tissue damage.Further research can provide more valuable information in clinics.

Objective To discuss the value of magnetic resonance (MR) diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) technology in the diagnosis of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and the fraction anisotropy (FA) of neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in the subacute stage.Methods Ten cases of normal full-term neonates and 34 term neonates diagnosed with HIE in the subacute stage were investigated with conventional MR and DTI.Of the 34 cases, 15 cases were mild HIE, 12 cases were moderate HIE,7 cases were severe HIE.ADC/FA values in different parts of the brain were analyzed.And the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used,the sensitivity and specificity of the FA in specific parts were also analyzed.Results (1) On convention MRI : according to the MRl scoring system,score of mild group was(2.6 ±-1.7) points, moderate group was (3.0 ± 1.5) points, severe group was (5.8 ± 1.3) points.There was significant difference between mild group and severe group, moderate and severe group (P ＜ 0.05).(2) The ADC and FA values in each group on DTI : ADC values in all of the regions of interest (ROIs) had no statistic difference between the HIE group and the controls(all P ＞ 0.05).FA values in posterior limb of internal capsule (PLIC) ,splenium had statistic difference between the HIE group and the controls.FA values in mild group were (0.317-0.018,0.339 ±0.025) ,moderate group (0.295 ±0.025,0.324 ±0.026) and severe group (0.252 ±0.039,0.253-0.036) and control group (0.455 ± 0.047,0.372 ± 0.032).(3) ROC analysis of the neonates diagnosed with HIE:the area under the ROC curve of FA values in PLIC, Splenium had statistic difference between mild group and moderate group (P ＜ 0.05).The area under the ROC curve in each group was 0.744 (P =0.032) ,0.658 (P =0.164).ROC curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of FA values in PLIC between HIE group and control group,when FA value was lower than 0.337,0.803 was the largest area under the ROC curve, and there was significant difference between them(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions FA values can reflect the brain white matter WM injury of HIE neonates quantitatively,and its diagnostic veracity is better than ADC value and conventional MR during the subacute phase of HIE.The diagnostic veracity of FA values in PLIC is higher than other parts.When the FA value is lower than 0.337, there is good sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of HIE, so DTI technology can provide accurate and objective basis for clinical treatment with good sensitivity and specificity about the diagnosis of HIE in early stage.

Objective To explore the developmental characteristics of semantic processing of chil-dren with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder( ADHD) by comparing the event related potential in normal children and ADHD children ( ages 7-11 years old) .Methods 83 ADHD children and 93 normal children ranging from 7 to 11-year were divided into 5 groups to analyze the difference of the amplitude and latency of ERP N400 in three conditions:the related,unrelated and pesudoword after the Chinese character word visual stimulus task.Results (1) The related condition:the amplitude of the 7 years old normal children group was higher than 11 years old((-10.67±4.39)μV,(-4.62±3.55)μV;P=0.005);and the amplitude was highest in 8 years old group in children with ADHD( (-10.77±6.66) ms, F=2.54, P=0.046) .The latency in normal children was shorter at 8 years old((311.7±33.1) ms, P<0.05),but was shorter at 9 years old in ADHD group.( 2) The unrelated condition:the amplitude of normal children aged 10 years was higher than that of other age groups.( 3) The pesudoword condition:the amplitude of 9 years old normal children was higher than other age groups.The amplitude of ADHD in children aged 9 years was higher than that in other age groups( (-16.08±7.14)μV, P<0.05) .Conclusion In the semantic related conditions,the amplitude of the N400 in ADHD children at the age of 8 and the latency at the age of 9 are significantly developed,and in the false words conditions,it is at the age of 11.This suggests that the ability of 7-11 years old ADHD chil-dren's orthographic semantic processing and cognitive development are slower than normal.N400 can better reflect the children's early language cognitive ability,and it is valuable for the early diagnosis of children with ADHD.

Objective To explore Chinese character semantic processing feature and the relationship with behavioral problems in early childhood with ADHD.Methods Twenty ADHD children and twenty normal children (7-8 years old) performed a Chinese character semantic judgment task through event related potential (ERP),meanwhile Conners parent rating scale (PSQ) was completed by parents to analyze behavior problems in children.The relationship between behavioral problems and ERPs was analyzed.Results (1) ADHD group showed smaller amplitudes of P200 compared to the normal group (related (6.6±4.8) μV vs (11.6±6.4) μV;unrelated (6.7±3.7) μN vs (10.8±5.0) μV),and longer latency (related(240±30) ms vs (198±17)ms;the unrelated (232±26)ms vs (194±16)ms;psudoword (233±26)ms vs (197±15)ms),all P＜0.05).The amplitudes of N400 wave only showed a decreasing trend in ADHD group(P＞0.05),while the latency of N400 was significantly longer than that in normal children in three conditions(P＜0.05).(2) Four subscale scores of CPSQ(conduct problem,learning problem,hyperactivity-impulsion and hyperactivity index) were significantly higher in ADHD children compared with normal group.(3)The amplitudes of P200 in related condition had negative correlation with the scores of CPSQ subscale (conduct problem,psychoso matic disorder,hyperactivity-impulsion and hyperactivity index) (r=-0.51,-0.47,-0.45,-0.46,all P＜0.05.The latency of P200 in related condition had positive correlation with psychosomatic disorder scores (r =0.54,P=0.01).Conclusion Early semantic recognition disorder exists in 7～ 8 years old ADHD children.P200 can be used as an objective index to evaluate early childhood ADHD's language cognition,and P200 is related to behavior problems (such as conduct problem,impulsions).

Objective To compare the differences of event-related potentials (ERP) of left and right cerebral hemispheres and behavioral characteristics in the mental arithmetic practice between ADHD and normal children,and to explore the neural mechanisms of mental arithmetic by ADHD children.Methods ERP and behavioral data of 32 ADHD and 32 normal children in mental arithmetic,to illustrate,simple addition,subtraction and multiplication within 20 were recorded.Results ERP:① The differences of N2 amplitudes in ADHD children 's left and right cerebral hemispheres while doing mental arithmetic,such as,addition,subtraction and multiplication were not statistically significant (addition:(-6.2±7.3) μV,(-6.6± 8.1) pV ; subtraction:(-5.5±6.4) μV,(-5.8± 6.5) μV ; multiplication:(-5.9± 8.2) μV,(-6.0± 8.6) μV ; all P＞0.05).However,normal group's N2 amplitude of left hemisphere(F3) were obviously higher than those of the right hemisphere (F4),considered to be statistically significant difference (addition:(-6.8±4.0) μV,(-5.9±4.3) μV ; subtraction:(-7.5±4.8) μV,(-6.3±4.4) μV ;multiplication:(-6.9±3.7)μV,(-5.7±4.4)pV ; all P＜0.05).② ADHD group's N2 amplitude of subtraction practice was significantly lower than that of addition and multiplication,while normal control group was the opposite.③There were not statistically difference between N2 incubation of left and right hemisphere while addition,subtraction,and multiplication were done (P＞0.05).Behaviorism:① ADHD group's reaction time towards answer making were much longer than those of the normal control group (addition:(983± 183) ms,(833± 164) ms ; subtraction:(1005±160)ms,(859±170)ms;multiphcation:(975±180)ms,(836±175)ms; P＜0.05).② Accurate rate:ADHD group were all lower than those of normal group.Conclusion There were functional limitations of no obviously advantage hemisphere and two hemisphere coordination while ADHD children were performing mental arithmetic,also hmitations in conflicting information processing,decision making,and more obviously in subtraction practice.

ObjectiveTo explore the neural mechanism of attention impairment in children with primary nocturnal enuresis.MethodsERPs elicited by performing the continuous operation test(CPT) were assessed in 20 children with primary nocturnal enuresis and 20 normal children.The Go/Nogo measurements of enuretic group at central scalp(Cz) were compared with the normal children and analyzed.Results1.Behavior results: there was no significant difference in the reaction time,the correct number and the false number between primary nocturnal enuresis and control group(P>0.05).2.ERP:(1)Go stimulate:the latency of Go-N2 and P3 of the children with primary nocturnal enuresis were longer than the normal control group(Go-N2:(326.80±46.40)ms vs (295.90±38.27)ms,P3:(438.80±62.60)ms vs (402.60±39.74)ms),and the difference had statistic significance(P<0.05).(2)Nogo stimulate:①Amplitude: the amplitude of Nogo-N2 of the children with primary nocturnal enuresis were lower than that of the normal control group((-10.55±3.30)μV vs (-14.12±5.99)μV),and the difference had statistic significance(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the amplitude of Nogo-P2 and Nogo-P3(P>0.05).②Latency: the latency of Nogo-P2 of the children with primary nocturnal enuresis was longer than that of the normal control group((214.10±27.85)ms vs (198.30±19.16)ms),and the difference had statistic significance(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the latency of Nogo-N2 and Nogo-P3(P>0.05).ConclusionAttention impairment in children with primary nocturnal enuresis might be caused by the information processing speed and conflict monitoring function obstacle,but it is not because the reactive inhibition dysfunction,thus result in the lack of arousal function and bedwetting.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of solanine-induced apoptosis of prostate cancer cells Du145 and LNCaP.Methods The effects of solanine on the viability of Du145 and LNCaP cells were evaluated by MTT assay.The generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and solanine-induced apoptosis were measured by flow cytometry.The protein levels of p38 and p-p38 expressions were examined by Western blot.Results Solanine significantly inhibited the viability of Du145 and LNCaP cells in a dose-dependent manner (P＜0.01).The inhibition of solanine on cell viability was suppressed by the ROS scavenger NAC.ROS generation,apoptosis and phosphorylation of p38 were induced by treatment with solanine at 40 μmol/L for 24 h.The expression of p38 and solanine-induced apoptosis were suppressed by NAC and SB203580.Conclusion Solanine induces the apoptosis of human prostate cancer cell via the RO.S-p38 signaling pathway.

Objective To compare the differences of the development of mathematical cognitive characteristics between ADHD children and normal children aged from 7 to 12 years old with event?related potentials ( ERP ) in the mathematical tasks, and to explore the neural mechanisms and characteristics. Methods ERP and behavioral data of 72 ADHD children and 88 normal children in three groups( 7?8 years old,9?10 years old,11?12 years old) were recorded,and analyzed N1,P2 and N2 components'amplitude and latency of Fz by judging the answers to simple calculation within 20. Results ( 1) Vertical comparative a?nalysis( the three age groups were compared):the differences of N1,P2 and N2 amplitudes in normal groups were considered to be statistically significant (right answer:N1(-3.8±2.1)μV,(-4.3±3.4)μV,(-2.2± 2.4)μV;P2(10.6±4.3)μV,(12.6±5.1)μV,(8.5±2.4)μV;N2(-6.5±3.1)μV,(-10.2±4.2)μV,(-6.8± 3.4)μV;error answer:N1(-2.8±2.7)μV,(-4.5±3.0)μV,(-2.9±2.5)μV;P2(9.3±5.9)μV,(12.1±5.0)μV,(8.2±3.6)μV;N2(-7.4±3.7)μV,(-11.4±5.5)μV,(-7.7±3.7)μV;all P<0.05),while was not sig?nificant in ADHD group(all P>0.05). (2)Horizontal comparative analysis(ADHD group and normal group were compared):N1 amplitude of ADHD group aged from 7 to 8 years old was higher than normal group’ s while judging the right answer((-5.3±2.4)μV,(-3.8±2.1)μV, P<0.05).P2 and N2 components’ ampli?tude of ADHD group aged from 9 to 10 years old were lower than of that normal group.(right answer:P2(9.6 ±4.4)μV,(12.6±5.1)μV;N2(-8.0±4.3)μV,(-10.2±4.2)μV;error answer:P2(9.6±4.4)μV,(12.1± 5.0)μV;N2(-7.9±4.6)μV,(-11.4±5.5)μV;all P<0.05).(3)Comparison of different tasks(the judge?ment of right and wrong answer):There was no statistically significant difference between ADHD and normal group in amplitude( P>0.05) . The latent period of the wrong answers was longer than that of the right ones among normal groups aged from 11?12 while the difference of ADHD group had no statistical significance ((312.9±42.3)ms,(292.2±21.2)ms, P<0.05). Conclusion The development trend of mathematical ERP component in ADHD children is different from normal ones,and it is closely related to the maldevelopment of frontal lobe.The characteristics of cognitive deficit differ from ages.ADHD children in low and intermediate level were damaged primarily with inhibition function,while the senior were damaged mainly in collision de?tection function.
