Objective To evaluate the clinical value of computed tomography (CT) examination in the etiologic diagnosis of small bowel obstruction.Methods From January 2010 to September 2013,a total of 237 patients with small bowel obstruction confirmed by operation were enrolled.The clinical data of all patients were collected.The diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasound and abdominal CT examination were compared in estimating site of obstruction,etiology of obstruction and strangulation obstruction.Chi square test was performed for count data comparison.Results Among 237 patients with small bowel obstruction,there were 121 patients with data of both color Doppler ultrasound and abdominal CT examination.After operation,it was comfirmed that the accurate diagnosis rates of abdominal CT scan in the site of obstruction,the etiology of obstruction and strangulation obstruction were 75.2 ％ (91/121),66.1％ (80/121) and 87.2％ (41/47),respectively,and which were higher than those of abdominal color ultrasound (44.6％,54/121; 30.6％,37/121 and 42.6％,20/47).The differences were statistically significant (x2 =23.555,30.595 and 20.593,all P＜0.01).Conclusion The accurate diagnosis rates of abdominal CT scan in estimating the site of obstruction,the etiology of obstruction and strangulation obstruction were higher than those of color Doppler ultrasound,especially with obvious advantage in judging the etiology of obstruction.

Objective To investigate the effects of left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex with 10HZ , 80%motor threshold repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation ( rTMS ) on the cognitive function in unipolar depression. Method Sixty-nine patients with unipolar depression were randomly assigned to either the real rTMS group or the sham rTMS treatment( the control group) ,all patients were given extended releasing venlafaxine. the cognitive function was evaluated using P300 and Repeatable battery for the assessment of neuropsychological status ( RBANS-immediate memory, visuospatial, language, attention, delayed memory, total score), Wisconsin card sorting test ( WCST-Right responses, Completed categories, Total errors , Preservative errors, Nonpreservative errors ). The depression severity was assessed with the 24-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression(HAMD-24). All of tests were examined before and after six weeks with thirty times rTMS. Results At the end of six weeks treatments, regarding the WCST,real rTMS group showed better improvement in the right responses than control group(33.23±10.29 vs 27.09 ± 9.82, F= 16. 116 , P= 0. 000), besides right responses, real rTMS group had better performance in the rest items than control group(F=4.862 ～ 17.758, P= 0.031 ～ 0.000) ;concerning the RBANS, real rTMS group was significantly superior to control group in total score( (88.83 ± 16.48 ) vs (78.85 ± 13.51 ), F= 8. 425,P = 0. 005 ), besides total score , the real rTMS group had better performance in some rest factors than control group (F= 10.088 ～20. 801, P=0. 002 ～0.000);real rTMS group showed better improvement in the amplitude of P3than control group( (8.27 ± 2.97 ) μV vs ( 7.37 ± 2.66) μV, F= 5. 838 , P=0.018 ) ;real rTMS group demonstrated better improvement in HAMD-24 than control group( (4.7 ±2.4)vs ( 11.2 ±5.1 ), F= 29.537, P=0. 000).Conclusion rTMS can significantly improve cognitive function and depressive symptoms with unipolar depression.

Objective To investigate the serum superoxide dismutase( SOD) ,malondialdehyde ( MDA) , and nitric oxide( NO) level in generalized anxiety disorder ( GAD) patients for exploring the importance of oxida?tive stress in etiology of GAD. Methods 42 cases of first episode patients with GAD ( GAD group) and 42 cases of health ( control group) matched with age and gender were included . Serum levels of SOD,MDA ,and NO were tested to analyze for a control study.Results GAD patients had significantly higher levels of SOD,MAD and NO than health controls ((858.09±137.32)×102 U/L vs (745.40±119.19) ×102 U/L;(10.92±3.42)mmol/L vs (7.52±2.32)mmol/L;(74.32±12.34) μmol/L vs(65.22±14.29) μmol/L), t=4.036,5.368,3.297;P=0.000, 0.000,0.003) . A positive relationship between SOD and total score of Hamilton Anxiety Scale( HAMA ) ,psychotic anxiety factor of HAMA,or somatic anxiety factor of HAMA was found in GAD group ( r=0.331,0.370,0.318;P=0.029,0.016,0.040).The level of MAD correlated with total score or psychotic anxiety factor of HAMA( r=0.311, 0.320;P=0.042,0.039).Conclusion It is suggested that the dysfunction of oxidative stress may play a role in pathogenesis of generalized anxiety disorder.

Objective To analyze the plasma free fatty acid (FFA) composition in patients with T2DM. Methods All subjects were from Zhongnan hospital of Wuhan university, and they were divided into three groups: normal control ( n = 94 ), T2DM ( n = 101 ) and T2DM with hyperlipidemia ( n = 77 ). Fasting blood samples were taken from the participants, and plasma FFA were separated using a modified Doles method with the bromoacetophenone, pre-column-derivative. The quantitation of FFA was performed on were (355.63 ± 100. 35) μmol/L, (421.21 ± 200. 83 ) μ mol/L, ( 473.04 ± 213.40 ) μmol/L in healthy controls, T2DM group and T2DM with hyperlipidemia group, respectively. The significant differences were observed among the 3 groups(x2 = 13.08, P <0.01 ). However, there was no significant difference of UFA concentrations among the 3 groups [(206.29± 61.94) μ mol/L, (218.11 ± 110.28) μmol/L and ( 240.94 ± 116.79 ) μmol/L, x2 = 2.17, P > 0.05]. Compared to normal control [( 355.63 ± 100.35 )μmol/L], the FFA concentration[(421.21 ±200.83) μmol/L] in T2DM has significantly increased (x2 =FFA concentrations were higher in T2DM with hyperlipidemia [(473.04 ±213.40) μmol/L] (x2 =27.93,P <0.01 ). The RSD values for intra- and inter-day precision were less than 5%, and the minimal detection limits ranged from 0.05 μmol/L to 0.35 μmol/L The recoveries of high, intermediate and low-level materials were 96.4% -104.8%. Conclusions The total FFA concentration in T2DM has increased, most of which are saturated FFA. The unsaturated FFA has not significantly increased. They seem to be related to the development of T2DM, and might be a new biomarker for clinical monitoring of metabolic disorder of T2DM.

Objective To study the liver fat content (LFC) in schizophrenia patients during olanzapine or aripipra?zol treatment, and to explore the relation between LFC and insulin resistance (IR). Methods Schizophrenia patients were randomly administered with olanzapine (10~25 mg/d, n=57) or aripiprazole (15~30 mg/d, n=47) for eight weeks. All sub?jects underwent sonographic quantification of LFC and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) once 0, 4, 8 weeks of treatment. Results Compared with baseline, the levels of HOMA-IR significantly in?creased after a 4-week and an 8-week of olanzapine treatment, and so did the LFC after an 8-week of olanzapine treat?ment (P<0.05). The levels of LFC (P>0.05) or HOMA-IR (P>0.05) did not significantly changed at week 4 and 8 in ar?ipiprazol group. The increment of LFC, HOMA-IR at week 8 was significantly higher in olanzapine group than that in ar?ipiprazol group (P<0.05). The change of LFC after 8-weeks olanzapine treatment was positively correlated with the change of HOMA-IR (r=0.298, P=0.036). Conclusion Olanzapine treatment increases whereas aripiprazol has little ef?fect on liver fat and insulin resistance in schizophrenia.

Objective To evaluate the harmful effects of olanzapine and quetiapine therapeusis on swallowing ability in patients with Alzheimer'disease (AD).Methods AD inpatients with behavioral and psychological symptoms were randomly divided into two groups,treated with olanzapine (n=42) or quetiapine (n=38) for 6 weeks.The patients were assessed with Kubota's water swallowing test and arterial oxygen saturation(SaO2) monitoring pre and pro treatment.Results After treatment,a significant higher score of water swallowing test (t =2.682,2.040;both P＜ 0.05)in either of two groups,and a significant raised degrade of SaO2 only in olanzapine group(t=4.313,P＜0.01)but not in quetiapine group (P＞0.05)were observed.There was a significant higher degrade of SaO2 in olanzapine group than that in quetiapine group (t=2.155,P＜0.05)at 6 weekend of the study.Before pharmacon,about 29％ (23/80) AD subjects were diagnosed as dysphagia.After pharmacon,more emerging dysphagia patients were surveyed in olanzapine group compared with that in quetiapine group(9/31 vs 2/26,x2=4.135,P＜0.05).No significant change (both P＞0.05) in scores of mini-mental state examination(MMSE) and a significant reduced score(t=3.019,2.867;both P＜0.01)of behavioral pathology in Alzheimer'disease rating scale (BEHAVE-AD) were found in both two groups at the end of study.There was no difference among the two groups with regard to score of MMSE or BEHAVE-AD after treatment(both P＞0.05).Conclusion Either olanzapine or quetiapine therapeutics might do some harmful effects on swallowing function in patients with AD,especially the former.

Objective To compare the efficacy of bowel-cleansing,patients′compliance, tolerability and side effects of different doses of polyethylene glycol(PEG)electrolyte solution for colonoscopy preparation.Methods Single-blind prospective randomized trial was performed.A total of 100 inpatients undergoing elective colonoscopy were randomized into three groups to receive 4 L PEG(n =35),2 L PEG (n =31)or 2 +1 L PEG(n =34),respectively,on the day of colonoscopy from May to July 2014.Bowel-cleansing efficacy was separately assessed with the Ottawa Scale for the right,middle,and left colon.Total score was obtained by adding the scores for individual evaluation of the three colon segments with the score of overall fluid in the entire colon.All patients filled in a questionnaire and were interviewed about their com-pliance to the assigned bowel preparation,tolerability,and side effects.Results Patients who did not complete the colonoscopy were excluded.A total of 91 patients were included in the last analysis:31 cases of 4 L group,30 cases of 2 L group and 30 cases of 2 +1 L group.The efficacy of bowel-cleansing of the three groups of patients according to the Ottawa Scale were similar(P >0.05),but the excellent and good rate of cleansing quality of the right colon was higher in 4 L group than in 2 L group(P <0.05).Compared with 4 L group and 2 +1 L group,patients in the 2 L group had higher compliance and tolerability,as well as lower rate of side effects(P <0.05 ).Conclusion The efficacy and safety of taking 2 L polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution in bowel-cleansing on the day of colonoscopy is good and suitable for use.Taking 4 L polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution for bowel preparation on the day of colonoscopy is more suitable for patients who are suspected highly with lesions of the right colon.

The genetic divergence between geographically separated populations can be studied by comparing the divergences in their allele frequencies to the geographical distance of popula-tions. The present study is to examine the divergences in allele frequencies and genetic diver-gence in relation to the geogrephical distance of the samples localities, in order to test the population structure model of Oncomelania from the endemic areas in mainland China.The results showed that three patterns of allele frequency distributions occured in seven polymorphic loci, which were even,chaotic and discontinuous cline distributions. The distcon-tinuous or stepped clines shown in loci Est-4,Got and Mdh-2 suggested that the discrete subpopuation model is the likeliest. The plot of genetic distance (Nei's 1978) between sample populations against the geographic distances suggested that the special pattern of allele fre-quency distribution could be found. The regression analysis shows that logistic sigmoid re-gression is the best model to fit the original data in the plot. This supports the existence of the discrete subpopulations model in the population structure studied.

Objective To explore the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) treatment on the brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) serum levels in depressive patients.Methods Sixty-eight unipolar depressions treated with venlafaxine were randomly assigned to the real rTMS group(n =34)and the sham rTMS group(n =34),which were accepted the real or the shame rTMS treatment on the left dorsolateral prefrontal lobes respectively.The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) and BDNF serum was assayed before and after 4 weeks' treatment.Results 1) A significant increase of serum BDNF((12.2 ± 1.3) μg/L vs (5.6 ± 0.8) μg/L,t=-9.167,P=0.000;(11.4 ± 1.5)μg/L vs (6.0± 1.0)μg/L,t=-7.421,P=0.000)and a significant decline of HAMD((11.6 ± 1.7) score vs (32.6 ± 2.5) score,t =14.654,P =0.000 ; (4.2 ± 2.8) score vs (31.8 ± 3.2)score,t=12.089,P =0.000) were found after the treatment in the real and the shame group,and the real group changed more significantly than the shame group ((6.7 ± 0.8) μg/L vs (5.1 ± l.2) μg/L,t =2.690,P =0.009 ; (21.0 ± 2.1) score vs (17.6 ± 2.6) score,t =2.693,P =0.000).2) A negative correlation was found between the serum BDNF levels and the HAM D scores before the treatment(r =-0.530,P=0.003; r =-0.490,P =0.004),and a positive correlation between changes of BDNF levels and HAMD scores changes(r =0.439,P =0.006 ; r =0.454,P =0.005).Conclusion The rTMS treatment can increase serum BDNF levels in depressive patients.
