Iodine is an essential trace element for growth and development of fetus. More and more surveys currently show that the urinary iodine level of pregnant women is between 100 - 149 μg/L, which is lower than the level recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Under this level of iodine nutrition, different investigations have shown different effects on thyroid function of pregnant women, and the impact on growth and development of the fetus requires long-term objective evaluation. At present, there are three aspects: development, intelligence quotient (IQ), and psychological behavior. There are not many studies on comprehensive evaluation. This article combs the related published research to provide a reference for further clarifying the influence of iodine nutrition level during pregnancy on thyroid function of pregnant women and the growth and development of their offspring.

Objective To evaluate the function and synchronization of left atrial in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF) by real-time three dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE).MethodsThirty healthy controls and thirty-two patients with CHF were studied.The CHF were divided into group CHF1 with the normal of left ventricular filling pressure and group CHF2 with the elevated of that.From the volume-time curve of RT-3DE workstation,the maximum volume (LAVmax),the minimum volume (LAVmin),the volume before contraction (LAVp) of left atrial were acquired.Accordingly,the total,passive and active ejection fraction could be calculated.The synchronization parameters derived from RT3DE were the dispersion and maximum difference of time to minimum volume for left atrial segments (Tmsv- 16-SD,Tmsv 12-SD,Tmsv-6-SD,Tmsv- 16-Dif,Tmsv 12-Dif,Tmsv-6 Dif).The index of volume and time were corrected by the body surface area and interval of R-R,respectively.The correlation were analysed in them.Results ① All the index of volume before and after correction were gradually increasing from control to CHF2 group,but the LATEF,LAPEF and LAAEF were just the reverse,with all parameters had significant difference among total groups( P ＜0.01 ).②The synchronization parameters were significantly higher from control to CHF2 group( P ＜0.01 ).Comparing between two groups,no significant difference of the synchronization parameters were found between CHF1 group and CHF2 group ( P ＞ 0.05),except Tmsv-16-SD％ and Tmsv-16-Dif％ ( P ＜0.01 ).③The Tmsv-16-SD％ and Tmsv-16-Dif％ had a positive correlation with the index of volume and a negative correlation with the ejection fraction.The most significantly correlation parameters was LAVmaxI,with r =0.75 and P ＜0.01.ConclusionsThe function of left atrium are reduced in patients of CHF,there are dyssynchronization.The higher of the filling pressure of left ventricle,the lager of the dyssynchronization of left atrium.RT-3DE may paly important roles in the evaluation of function and synchronization of left atrium.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of cardiovascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by wave intensity and tissue Doppler imaging.Methods According to the course of disease,30 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were divided in to two groups:T2DM group 1,the course of disease between 1 year to 5 years; T2DM group 2,the course of disease was longer than 5 years.30healthy volunteers were considered as control group.The parameters of accelerating wave intensity(W1),decelerating wave intensity(W2),negative area(NA),time interval between the R-wave of ECG and the first peak(R-W1),the first and second peaks (W1-W2),elasticity modulus (Ep),stiffness index (β),arterial compliance(AC),pulse wave velocity(PWVβ) and intima media thickness (IMT) were calculated by wave intensity.The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular ejection time (LVET),early diastolic peak speed (E),late diastolic peak velocity (A),E / A and isovolumic relaxation time(IVRT) were detected by two dimensional echocardiography.Mitral annular early diastolic peak speeds (Em),late diastolic peak velocity (Am) and Em / Am were detected by tissue Doppler imaging.Then three groups data were recorded and compared.Results Compared with the control group,β,PWVβ,Ep in T2DM group increased significantly(P ＜0.01 or P ＜0.05),while AC decreased(P ＜0.05).IMT in T2DM group 2 was thicker significantly than the control group(P ＜0.01).PWVβ,Ep,IMT in T2DM group 2 were significantly higher than those of T2DM group 1 (P ＜0.05).W2 in T2DM group 2 was significantly higher than those of T2DM group 1 and the control group(P ＜0.01 or P ＜0.05).E/A,Em and Em/Am in T2DM group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P ＜0.05 or P ＜0.01).Compared with T2DM group 1,Em in T2DM group 2 decreased significantly(P ＜0.05).In T2DM group,there were positive correlation between IMT and Ep,β,PWVβ (r =0.48,r =0.385,r =0.478,P ＜0.05 or P ＜0.01),positive correlation between Em and E (r =0.404,P ＜0.05) ;positive correlation between Em/Am and E/Em,E/A (r =0.602,r =0.559,P ＜0.01) ; negative correlation between Em and IVRT (r =-0.653,P ＜0.01);positive correlation between W1 and LVEF (r =0.627,P ＜0.01); positive correlation between W1-W2 and lVET (r =0.847,P ＜ 0.01) ; no correlation between W2 and E/A,E/Em,Em/Am,IVRT(P ＞0.05).Conclusions The elasticity of carotid artery and the diastolic function of left ventricular decreased in T2DM patients,while the systolic function of left ventricular was normal.

Objective: To investigate anxiety and depression among young acne patients, to provide a reference for the comprehensive treatment and to improve the quality of life of the patients. Methods: Totally 157 students with acne of a major skin disease (acne group) and 157 healthy subjects (control group) selected from 244 and 297 students with and without acne were evaluated with the Zung’s Depression Self-rating Scale (SDS) and the Zung’s Anxiety Self-rating Scale(SAS). The SDS and SAS scores at different levels of sex and disease state were compared between two groups. Results: The positive detection rate of depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms in acne group was 59.20% and 69.40%,respectively, and the combined detection rate of anxiety and depression symptoms was 52.90%; the detection rate of depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms in control gruop was 32.50% and 25.50%,respectively, with anxiety and depression symptoms accounted for 20.40%, the differences were statistically significant(χ2=22.63, 60.81, 35.69, P<0.01). Compared with acne group, there were higher SDS and SAS scores in acne group(Z=5.95, 9.16, P<0.01). In the acne group, the SDS and SAS scores of males were higher than females. There were significant differences in the SDS and SAS scores of the samples with different incidence(H=55.67, 43.83, P<0.01). Conclusion Students with acne are more likely to suffer from depression and anxiety. Compared with healthy population, moderate and severe acne patients have more serious depression and anxiety symptoms. It is suggested that the medical staff in school should take appropriate psychological intervention and treatment to facilitate the comprehensive rehabilitation of the young students with acne.

Objective To explore the clinical features,genetic causes and prognosis of intellectual disability with epilepsy(ID-E)in children.Methods The data of unknown causes of ID-E children(n=40)who were identified in Department of Pediatrics,Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from March 2015 to March 2016 were respectively analyzed,and follow-up studies were performed to investigate the epilepsy control and intellectual deve-lopment.Results Forty unexplained ID-E included 25(62.5％)male,and 34(85.0％)cases were severe intellectual disability patients.The onset age of epilepsy was 0.16 to 8.00 years old,median age was 1.5 years old.Twenty cases(50.0％)had slow electroencephalogram background,and 22 cases(55.0％)had focal spikes.Ten cases(25.0％)had abnormal cranial images,with brain dysplasia or atrophy.Follow-up lasted from 0.58 to 1.58 years,and 19 cases(47.5％)had seizure control.Twenty-five cases(62.5％)had used at least 2 anti-epilepsy drugs during follow-up,and 19 cases(47.5％)had drug refractory epilepsy.Improvement of mental or motor development in epilepsy controlled group and the uncontrolled group were 12 cases(63.2％)and 2 cases(9.5％).There were separately 8 cases(8/40 cases,20.0％)and 3 cases(3/16 cases,18.8％)diagnosed respectively by whole genome-wide analysis of copy number variants(CNVs)and gene-panel whose CNVs test findings were negative.Conclusions ID-E patients of unknown causes have the following clinical features:they were mostly found in male patients with severe intellectual disability,and drug refractory epilepsy patients have rather high percentage;well controlling of epilepsy is useful for improvement of mental and motor development.Genetic analysis is significant for control and prognosis of ID-E patients,and genome-wide CNVs have high positive rates which can be used as first-tier test to detect genetic etiology of ID-E of unknown cause.
