There are a variety of inherited metabolic diseases (IMD), the incidence is low and clinical manifestations are not char-acteristic. IMD primarily affect not only the nervous system, but also the blood system, which characterized by the abnormalities of blood cells and bone marrow. Because of some clinician's lack of this knowledge, some patients are prone to be misdiagnosed. To pro-mote early diagnosis, this article reviews five groups of IMD (lysosomal storage disease, vitaminopathies, organic aciduria, amino-acidopathies and others) and different hematological abnormal manifestations.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and nursing intervention in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical hysterectomy. Methods One hundred patients undergoing laparoscopic radical hysterectomy were included, surgical history, general anesthetics way, education, family factors(alone), body mass index, age, duration of anesthesia, dose of sufentanyl, hematocrit, the time for regaining orientation, dysphoria, postoperative pain degree were recorded. The occurrence of POCD was observed at 7 days (early period) and 3 months (later period) after surgery. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the risk factors for POCD at early period and later period. Results The incidence of POCD at early period was 29.0%(29/100). Logistic regression analysis of surgical history, general anesthetics way, body mass index, age, hematocrit, the time for regaining orientation, postoperative pain degree in patients, general anesthetics way (OR=2.821, 95%CI 1.099-7.240) and postoperative pain degree(OR=2.292, 95%CI 1.129-4.654) were the significant risk factors for POCD at early period. The incidence of POCD at later period was 7.0%(7/100). Logistic regression analysis of education and family factors(alone) in patients, family factors(alone) was the significant risk factor for POCD at later period (OR=5.517, 95%CI 1.010-30.126). Conclusions General anesthetics way and postoperative pain degree are the significant predictors for POCD in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical hysterectomy during hospitalization, and family factors(alone) is the risk factor for POCD at 3 months after surgery, and active nursing intervention could reduce the occurrence of POCD.

Objective To overcome the fact that SRV-NM virus can only multiple and amplify through partially pu-rified jaagsiekte retrovirus inoculated intratracheally in sheep but it cannot be augmented using in vitro cell culture, we con-structed JSRV-NM pseudovirions based on high efficiency packing system of lentivirus. Methods Lentivirus of three high efficiency packing plasmids system pMD.G, pCMV-HIV 8.2 and pHIV-eGFP was developed, and JSRV-NM-env coated plasmid pCMVJSRV-NM was used to substitute VSV-G virus coated plasmid pMD.G then co-transfected into 293T cells to replicate, package and produce restructured JSRV-NM pseudovirions. Gene expression of pseudovirion was determined through WPRE using real time PCR; Virus infectivity was detected through inoculating JSRV-NM pseudovirions into 24 pore plates. Results We construct JSRV-NM pseudovirions successfully based on the lentivirus system. JSRV-NM pseudo-virions can also be concentrated to higher titer (108 TU/mL detected by real time PCR by ultracentrifugation without signifi-cant loss of activity. JSRV-NM and VSV-G pseudovirions infected on Hela cells (both MOI= 3) respectively and no obvi-ous difference were shown on their infection efficiency detected by real time PCR. Conclusion Based on lentivirus system, JSRV-NM pseudovirions can be multipled and amplified in 293T cell culture in vitro. JSRV-NM pseudovirions is stable without loss its infection activity and the requirements of biological laboratory safety II was also met. JSRV-NM pseudoviri-ons will provide a useful tool for further study of JSRV-NM-env infection across species or its induction of lung adenocarci-noma.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of 650 nm-10.6 μm combined laser in patients with knee Osteoarthritis (OA) and to determine whether the combined laser provides greater pain relief and improved function compared with red light. Methods: Forty-eight patients with knee OA were randomly allocated to two groups (24 per group), receiving 20 rain irradiation with 650 nm -10.6 μm combined laser or red light emitting diode respectively on point Dubi (ST 35) 3 times a week for the first course (2 weeks) and twice a week for the second one (4 weeks). The main outcome measures were WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) scores. In addition, patients' global assessment, adverse effects and validation of patient blinding were analyzed. Results: All the patients completed the first course, but 12 were lost during the second one. Due to the high dropout rate by the second course, only the data acquired from the first course could be analyzed. No differences of general data of patients and WOMAC scores were found in between-group comparison before treatment (P>0.05). The WOMAC scores of patients in both combined laser group and red light group reduced significantly compared to baseline by the end of the first course (P<0.01). There were no significant differences on the reduction rate of WOMAC scores between two groups (P>0.05). Neither the patients' global assessment nor the dropout rate showed statistical differences between two groups (P>0.05). There was no difference between two groups in patients correctly guessing the treatment assignment (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the reduction rate of WOMAC scores and the patients' global assessment between patients who guessed their assignment (P>0.05). Conclusion: Both combined laser and red light irradiation are beneficial to patients with knee OA. But as the statistical indifferences between two groups, the authors can't conclude from this study whether the combined laser is more effective.
