Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) accounted for 10%-40% of pediatric community-acquired pneumonia. The clinical manifestations of MPP were complex and varied. In addition to pulmonary inflammation, , the complications with lungs and other organs had been widely reported in MPP. Although the MPP complicated with thrombus in lung, other organs and limbs was rare reported, it was serious and life threatening once thromboembolism happens,. Clinicians should pay great attention to improve the ability of early identiifcation, diagnosis, and treatment. This paper will focus on the mechanism, early identiifcation, early diagnosis and treatment of MPP complicated with thrombosis.

The ketogenic diet (KD) is a special diet with high-fat, low-carbohydrate and moderate amount of protein. The KD therapy is a safe, potentially effective and important treatment of refractory childhood epilepsy in recent years. It has con-ifrmed clinical efifcacy and a generally good prognosis. The adverse reactions of KD treatment are normally less and transient. In this paper, the effective rate, patient compliance, adverse reactions and their causes of KD in treating children with refractory epilepsy were reviewed.

Objective To establish a new model of the Achilles tendon(AT) contraction by stress-shielding. Methods 8 SD rats were randomly divided into two groups, the normal control group and the experimental group. The ATs of the experimental group were stress-shielded by fixing the upper ankle joint in equines position using a cerclage and transecting the sciatic nerve. The control group received no treatment. All rats were killed three weeks later, and all the ATs of the left hind limbs of the experimental and normal control group were tested morphologically by transmission electron microscope (TEM). Results Compared to the normal control group, the collagen fibrils of the experimental tendons did not arrange very well. The number of tendon cells increased, and some of them were pycnotic. Some mitochondrias were swollen. The proportion of the smaller diameter collagen fibril became lager, and small and large fibrils did not distribute in even. Conclusion Our research is successful compared to the past researches and repeatable.

Rotator cuff tears are common shoulder injuries.Because of the advantages of less injury and quick rehabilitation,arthroscopic rotator cuff repair becomes one of the major methods to treat the rotator cuff tears.Postoperative rehabilitation is also as important as the operation of rotator cuff repair.

Aquatic plant duckweed can enrich high concentration of arsenic, it is thus used as the representative of phytofiltration.The mechanism of arsenic tolerance in duckweeds has received much concern.In this study, synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence (SRXRF) and X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) techniques were used to study the micro-distribution and speciation of arsenic in natural As-rich duckweed from lead-zinc mine.Two monolithic duckweeds, FP1 and FP2, were analyzed by micro SRXRF, setting single point scan time and spot size were 5 s, 70 μm×80 μm and 2 s, 100 μm×100 μm respectively.Six points of FP2 were selected and analyzed by micro XANES in energy range of 11.81-11.96 keV.Pressed-pellet duckweed was analyzed by bulk XANES in energy range of 11.67-12.27 keV.The result showed that As(Ⅲ) was the major speciation of duckweed from bulk XANES and micro-XANES data.SRXRF micro analysis showed that arsenic had significant vein distribution in duckweed, and was not spread into the photosynthetic mesophyll within certain concentration, which may reduce the leaf toxicity triggered by arsenic.This vein distribution may play a role in arsenic tolerance in duckweed.

BACKGROUND:Stress shielding in the Achil es tendons induces over-expression of tumor necrosis factor-α. The degree of tendon contracture remains unclear after the intervention with tumor necrosis factor inhibitor.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of tumor necrosis factor-αon tendon contracture and the preventive effects of tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (etanercept) on tendon contracture by observing the morphological changes of the stress-shielded Achil es tendons after the intervention with etanercept.
METHODS:A total of 20 healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into experimental and model groups after stress shielding in Achil es tendons of rat left hind limb. Five rats from either group were randomly selected, and their right hind limbs were considered as normal controls. Immediately after model induction, the rats in the experimental group were subjected with 0.6 mg/kg etanercept, and those in the model group were subcutaneously treated with 1 mL phosphate buffered saline. According to half-life of etanercept, the two groups were separately injected three times. At 2 weeks after intervention, the morphological changes of the Achil es tendons were observed using gross examination and transmission electron microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:On gross examination, the Achil es tendons in the experimental group were significantly smoother and smal er than those of the model groups, but thicker than those of the normal control group. Under a transmission electron microscope, the col agen fibrils of the model group were looser and more disordered than those of the experimental group. The col agen fibrils of the experimental group were similar to those of the normal control group in cross section and longitudinal section. These indicated that tumor necrosis factor-αantagonist can obviously prevent stress shielding-induced tendon contracture at 2 weeks.

Objective To observe the change of P300(EP) evoked potentials in pre-and-post acupuncture on post-stroke patientsv following depression.Methods According to Hamiltion Rating Scale for Depression(HRS-D),ninty post-stroke patients were divided into two groups: the depression group(n=63) received acupuncture at Ex-HN1 and Siguan Points and the non-depression group(n=31).After assessed and grouped by HRS-D,and one acupuncture therapeutic course for the depression group,two groups' subjects were tested with P300 potentials.Results Before treatment,the latency of P3 of P300 potentials was longer and the amplitude of P3 was lower in the patients of the depression group compared with the cases in the non-depression group;after the acupuncture treatment,the latency of P3 decreased significantly(P<0.01),and the amplitude of P3 increased significantly(P<0.05) in the patients of the depression group.Conclusion P300 potentials test can help find cognitive dysfunction in post-stroke patients following depression at early stage,and acupuncture treatment in time can lessen or eliminate depression motion of post-stroke patients.

Objective To explore the relationship among job stressors,sleep quality and psychological health of nurses.Methods 708 female nurses in a 3-A-grade general hospitals of Guangxi were chosen and asked to fill out the Nurse Job Stressors Questionnaire-Revised (NJSQ-R),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90).Results ① The total mean score of NJSQ-R (1.50± 0.62) and the five job stressors,including the job environment and characters (1.60±0.65),personal relation ship(1.21±0.73),the attitude of patient and their relatives(1.63±0.74),professional skill(1.38±0.71) and social status and career development(1.97±0.72) were positively related with the total mean score of SCL-90 (1.64±0.69) (r=0.32-0.50,P＜0.01)and the total score of PSQI(8.11±3.52) (r=0.28-0.35,P＜0.01).There was a positive relationship between SCL-90 and PSQI(r=0.46,P＜0.01)).② SCL-90(β=0.387,P＜ 0.01)and the job stressor of the social status and career development(β=0.120,P＜0.05)were directly sig nificantly associated with PSQI.The job stressor of job environment and characters(β=0.235,P＜0.01) and professional skill(β=0.117,P＜0.05)were indirectly associated with PSQI mediated by SCL-90.③ PSQI was directly significantly associated with SCL-90(β=0.344,＜0.01).The job stressor of the social status and career development was indirectly significantly associated with SCL-90 mediated by PSQI(β=0.113,P＜0.05).And the job stressor of job environment and characters was directly (β=0.172,P＜0.01)and indirectly (β=0.184,P＜0.01) associated with PSQI mediated by SCL-90.Conclusion The higher the job stress,the more the mental health problem,and the poor the sleep quality among nurses.Job stressors have direct or in direct influence on psychological health and sleep quality,depending on the nature of job stressors.In addition,the result suggests that a bidirectional relationship exists between sleep quality and psychological health.
