Objective:To explore features and relevant influencing factor of ecological executive function in children with childhood absence epilepsy (CAE).Methods:Forty children with CAE (CAE group) and 40 healthy children with physical examination (control group) from April 2017 to July 2020 in Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital were selected. The behavior rating inventory of executive function (BRIEF) parental questionnaire was used to evaluate the executive function of children. The differences of ecological executive function between 2 groups were compared.Results:The BRIEF total score, behavioral regulation index (BRI) and metacognition index (MI) in CAE group were significantly higher than those in control group: (52.03 ± 10.89) scores vs. (44.05±5.06) scores, (49.45 ± 9.93) scores vs. (43.85 ± 4.70) scores and (53.18 ± 11.24) scores vs. (44.95 ± 5.32) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Multiple stepwise regression analysis result showed that inhibit inhibition, shift, emotional control, initiation, working memory, planning, organization, monitoring, MI and total score were correlated with disease control ( P<0.01), and disease control had a negative predictive effect on them ( R2 = 0.174, 0.158, 0.234, 0.325, 0.383, 0.337, 0.378, 0.199, 0.463 and 0.435); BRI was correlated with onset age and disease control ( P<0.01 or <0.05), and onset age and disease control had a negative predictive effect on BRI ( R2 = 0.336). Conclusions:Children with CAE have ecological executive dysfunction. The control of the disease and the onset age are the main factors affecting the ecological executive function.

Objective To analyze the clinical diagnosis and therapeutic effect of primary middle lobe lung cancer,in order to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods The clinical data of 45 cases of primary middle lobe lung cancer treated by surgery from January 2002 to January 2007 were ana- lyzed retrospectively.The operation style includes:simple middle lobectomy 12 cases(26.7 %),middle or up- per lobectomy 10 cases(22.2 %),right lung total resection 5 cases(11.1%).Chest exploration was done on 2 cases(4.44 %),palliative resection or vedged resection 2 cases(4.44 %).Results 1 case died from lung in- fection and respiratory failure(2.22 %).15 cases with arrhythmia (33.3 %), 1 case with chylothorax were cured after conservative treatment.The survival rate of 1,3,5 year were 82.1%,64.3 %,32.1% respectively. Conclusion The treatment of primary middle lobe lung cancer is dominated by regular lobectomy. It is difficult to perform middle lobectomy,so double or total lobectomy is done generally.Owing to the more postoperative complications, it should be cautious to perform sleeve resection.It should be avoided to do vedged resection for primary middle lobe lung cancer in order to lessen local recurrence.

Objective To compare the difference of the Cif gene expression and the inflammation markers (such as WBC and CRP et al)between mucoid and non-mucoid Pseudonmonasaeruginosa,combining with the clinical data.Methods Real-time RT-PCR was used to determine the expression level of Cif in Pseudonmonas aeruginosa and clinical data were collected to discuss the relationship among the number of WBC,the level of CRP and the Cif gene expression.Results The expression level of Cif gene in mucoid Pseudonmonas aeruginosa had a significantly higher than the non-mucoid Pseudonmonas aerugi-nosa,which was statistically significant (t=2.09,P<0.05).Specimen data collected from patients with the infection of mu-coid or non-mucoid Pseudonmonas aeruginosa showed that the number of WBC and the level of CRP were not significantly different (t=0.65,0.60,P>0.05).The data also showed that the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator in-hibitory factor (Cif)gene expression level had little correlation with the number of WBC (a=0.095,R2=0.029).Conclusion The expression of Cif gene may works for the biofilm formation of mucoid Pseudonmonas aeruginosa,which maybe a new virulence factor to Pseudonmonas aeruginosa.

Since 1970, 13 cases of reconstruction thumb and finger utilizing the second toe were performed. 13 out of 14 reconstructed digits survied with no complication. All wounds healed by primary intention. Emergency reconstruction has the following merits: it is completed in one stage, hence less suffering and economic loss to the patients;it promises early rehabilitation, early return to work and better functional results, as compared with delayed operation. Traumatic amputation of the thumb at or near the metacarpo-phalangeal joint with the transected part so badly injured that replantation is no longer fet-sible, and severe crushing injury of the thumb or all fingers are indicated for emergency reconstruction. Patient's age, occupation, desire for operation and general health should be considered individually before operation. The method of dissecting the second toe with the preservation of vasculization pattern of dorsalis pedis artery-first plantar metatarsal artery should be adopted in case the anatomic pattern of dorsal metatarsal artery belongs to Gilbert type Ⅲ.

Objective To investigate the changes in the number of microglias and astrocytes in the spinal dorsal born in a rat model of phantom limb pain.Methods Eleven healthy adult SD rats of both sexes weighing 290-300 g were randomly divided into 2 groups:sham operation group (group S,n =5 ) and unilateral sciatic nerve transection group (group SNT,n =6).Phantom limb pain model was induced by resection of a 0.5 cm segment of unilateral sciatic nerve in group SNT.In group S unilateral sciatic nerve was exposed but not transected.The animals were observed for autotomy and scored (0 =no autotomy,13 =the worst autotomy) after operation and were sacrificed on the 28th day after operation.The L5 segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of the number of microglials (by iba-1 immuno-histochemistry) and astrocytes (by GFAP immuno-histochemistry).Results In group S no animal developed autotomy.In group SNT autotomy started from the 2nd day after operation and the score reached 9-11.Compared with group S,the number of the microglias and astrocytes in the spinal dorsal horn was significantly decreased in the operated side in group SNT ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion The number of microglias and astrocytes in the spinal dorsal horn is decreased in animals with phantom limb pain.

Dysfunction of the human 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (hOGG1) is closely related to development of lung neoplasms and other cancers.Polymorphisms in hOGG1 gene may alter glycosylase activity,thereby affect its repair capacity to the damaged DNA,contributing to carcinogenesis.Joint effects of hOGG1 and other DNA repair gene SNPs have showed complex gene-gene interactions may significantly contribute to people's lung cancer susceptibility.HOGG1 plays an important role in maintaining mitochondrial respiration thus affects tumor cell growth.

Objective To investigate the changes in the number of synapses and neurons in the spinal dorsal horn in a rat model of phantom limb pain. Methods Eleven healthy adult SD rats of both sexes weighing 209-300 g were randomly divided into 2 groups: sham operation group (group S, n = 5) and phantom limb pain group (group P, n = 6). Phantom limb pain was induced by resection of a 0.5 cm segment of unilateral sciatic nerve in group P. In group S unilateral sciatic nerve was exposed but not transected. The animals were observed for autotomy and scored (0 = no autotomy, 13 = the worst autotomy) after operation and were sacrificed on the 28th day after operation. The L3-6 segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of the number of neurons (by Nissl's staining) and synapses (by synaptophysin immuno-histochemistry).Results In group S no animal developed autotomy. In group P autotomy started from the 2nd day after operation and the score reached 9-11. The number of the neurons in the spinal dorsal horn in all 4 segments and the number of synapses in L3 and 16 segments were comparable between the two sides and the 2 groups. The number of synapses in the spinal dorsal horn of L4and L5 segment was significantly larger in the operated side than in the contralateral side in group P. Conclusion The number of synapses in the spinal dorsal horn significantly increases in animals with plantom limb pain which induces no increase in the number of neurons in the spinal dorsal horn.

Objective To approach rehabilitation nursing measures in using the allogeneic ten-don to re-establish the anterior cruciate ligament of knee through the tibia twin tunnel under arthroscopy.Methods Mental nursing and direct functional exercises was given to 30 patients who received this kind of operation from November,2006 to July,2007,and functional exercises of flection and extention of knee joint by steps,functional exercises of muscle force of quadficeps muscle and back muscle group of legs and the correct using of artificial brace of knee joint.Results Range of joint motion could reach 95°after 2 weeks and 125°after 4 weeks postoperation.Score of joint function(Lysholm)could reach(74.8±5.7)after 6 weeks,(80.0±2.3)after 9 weeks,(91.8±3.4)after 12 weeks, and(94.5±2.2)after 1 year.Conclusion Selective perioperative rehabilitation nursing instruction is the important guarantee of function recovery.

Objective To investigate the effects of mesenchymul stem cells(MSCs) transfected with human home oxygenase- 1 gene on the inflammatory cytokines and the ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction in rats.Method MSCs were acquired from the hone marrow of adults rats.They were isolated,purified cultured,and transfected with Adv-HO-1,or Adv-GFP in vitro before transplantation.At 1 hours after left coronary artery ligation,Adv-HO-1-MSCs or Adv-GFP-MSCs marked with DAPI were directly injected into the horder of cardiac infarction in rats.At 4 days after transplantation,western blot analysis was used to measure HO-1 protein expression in the the horder of cardiac infarction.The levels of VEGF,bFGF,HGF protein expression were measured by ELISA,and the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-10 mRNA expression were measured by RT-PCR.The rat heart function was measured by echocardiography.At 4 weeks after transplantation,ventricular remodeling and pathological changes were measured by HE and Masson staining.Results The Adv-HO-1-MSCa treated group showed marked increase of HO-1 rotein (P<0.05),and displayed significant increase of montioned cytokines above,P <0.05,compared with other groups.The Adv-HO-1-MSCs treated group displayed significant reduction of mRNAs expreesion of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,and significant increase in IL-10 mRNA expression,with P<0.05,compared with others.Conclusions HO-1-MSCs could secrete multiple cytokines in infarction hearts,and had beneficial effects on inflammatory cytokines,remodeling processes and cardiac function.
