Thirty-one patients with middle ear effusion were evaluated for the presence of chlamydia pneumonia by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. The presence of chlamydia neumonia was 19. 3% (6/31). The results indicated that PCR assay is a highly sensitive and specific for the detection of chlamydia pneumonia in the middle ear effusion and chlamydia pneumonia may be an aetiological agent of middle ear effusion.

Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of paroxetine for epileptic patients following depression. Methods 156 epileptic patients were recruited. Patient Health Questionnaire 9-item Depression scale (PHQ-9) then the Hamilton Scale for Depression (HAMD)were the assessment tools. 31 patients, whose score of PHQ-9 more than 15 and HAMD more than 20 were selected. The monthly seizure frequency and depression severity were investigated before and 12 weeks after treatment with paroxetine, 20 mg/d. The side effects of paroxetine were also observed. Results 29 patients completed the observation. The total scores of the HAMD decreased 12 weeks after treatment (P<0.05). Dizziness was the most common adverse event during the first month of treatment. No seizure worsening was observed. Monthly seizure frequency did not change significantly. Conclusion Paroxetine is a safe and effective antidepressant for epileptic patients following depression.

Objective To investigate the influence of proprioceptive training of hemiplegic stroke patients on their visually compensatory dependence.Methods Twenty stroke patients without vestibular abnormalities were recruited.They were able to walk for 10 meters.All the patients underwent 4 weeks of rehabilitation training including proprioceptive training,treadmill exercises and isometric muscle strengthening.Static standing balance test was performed before and after 4 weeks of treatment.The parameters such as the anteroposterior and mediolateral sway of the center of gravity,center of gravity distribution were analyzed before and after the treatment,taking into consideration of visual feedback (eyes open or closed) by using t-test and multiple linear regression analysis.Results Visual feedback had significant no influence on the anteroposterior sway of center of gravity before and after training (P ＞ 0.05) ; Visual feedback had significant influence on mediolateral sway of center of gravity.Rehabilitation training significantly improved the mediolateral sway in opened-eye standing (P ＜ 0.05) but not closedeye standing (P ＞ 0.05).Visual feedback played significant role in center of gravity distribution after training (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Visual compensation is of significant influence on the mediolateral sway.Proprioceptive training can help decrease the patient's dependence on visual feedback and enhance the patient's balance ability.

Objective To explore the application value of serum procalcitonin (PCT ) and amyloid protein A (SAA ) in the early diagnosis and curative evaluation of bacterial infectious diseases among preschool children in order to improve the clinical diagnosis level of early bacterial infection .Methods A total of 120 cases of pediatric infectious diseases in our hospital from January to De‐cember 2015 were selected and divided into the bacterial infection group (60 cases) and viral infection group (60 cases) ,meanwhile 50 children undergoing the physical examination were selected as the control group .The serum levels of PCT and SAA were ob‐served and compared among the three groups ,and the statistical analysis was performed by using the SPSS 19 .0 software .Results The levels of PCT and SAA in the bacterial infection group were significantly increased compared with the viral infection group and the healthy control group(P<0 .05) ,both PCT and SAA levels after effective antibiotic treatment were significantly decreased (P<0 .05);the positive rates of PCT and SAA in the bacterial infection group were 91 .7% and 95 .0% respectively ,which were signifi‐cantly higher than those in the viral infection group and the healthy control group (P<0 .05) ,the sensitivity of PCT in the diagno‐sis of bacterial infection was lower than that of SAA ,but the specificity ,positive predictive value and negative predictive value were all higher than those of SAA ,the correlation analysis showed that PCT level in the bacterial infection group was positively correla‐ted with and the SAA level(r=0 .782 ,P<0 .01) .Conclusion Detecting the PCT and SAA levels is conducive to early diagnosis , judgment of the disease condition and guidance of rational medication in bacterial infection among preschool children ,in which the efficiency of PCT for diagnosing bacterial infection is superior to SAA .

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis of 2 patients with renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma (AML), representing 5.4 % of a series of 37 patients undergoing biopsy for renal tumors. Methods:The histopathological, immunohistochemical and clinical characteristics of renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma were studied by immunohistochemical stain for melanoma marker (HMB45), (Pan)melanoma marker Ab-1,cytokeratin (CK), smooth muscle actin (SMA), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA),vimentin (Vim), p53, proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), Ki67 antigen. Results:Two patients,aged 31 and 39,were alive for 8 and 10 months,respectively.Microscopically, both tumors were mainly made up of diffuse sheets of epithelioid cells and scattered thick-walled blood vessels, necrosis was account for up to 30% of the mass. The epithelioid cells had huge, extremely pleomorphic nuclei with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm. Scattered tumor giant cells with prominent nuclei were also seen. The epithelioid AML regions of these tumors were immunoreactive for HMB45, (Pan)melanoma marker Ab-1, SMA, Vim and PCNA. Neither atypical epithelioid cells nor typical AML cells were immunoreactive for cytokeratin (CK) and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA).Conclusion: The results of this study suggested that the renal epithelioid AML was a mild malignant tumor before distant metastases. The differential diagnosis between renal malignant AML and sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma was established by immunohistochemical findings.
