Objective To explore the efficacy, safety,time of drug taking effect and therapeutic dosage of sertraline in treatment of child emotional disorder. Method One hundred and forty-seven patientswith child emotional disorder were treated by sertraline and the efficacy rate, therapeutic dosage, the time of drug taking effect and adverse reaction was analyzed retrospectively. Results One hundred and thirty-seven patients were regular visited under supervision of a physician. Two months after treatment, the efficacy rate was 80.3%(110/137) and the rate of adverse reaction was 5.8%(8/137). The therapeutic dosage of sertraline was (47.9 + 19.0) mg/d. The time of drug taking effect was (20.4±13.2) d. The therapeutic dosage of sertraline in obsessive-compulsive disorder [(58.7±26.2) mg/d] was significantly higher than that in depression[(43.6±14.0) mg/d],anxiety disorder[(44.4±10.6) mg/d] and phobia[(43.5±15.5) mg/d](P < 0.01 ). The time of drug taking effect in depression[( 14.0±6.1 ) d] was significantly shorter than that in obsessive-compulsive disorder[(26.6±16.3) d,anxiety disorder [(22.3±13.9) d] and phobia [(21.4±12.8) d] (P <0.01). Conclusions Sertraline is an efficient and safe medicine in treatment of child emotional disorder. Its adverse reaction is slight and most patients can tolerate. But it takes higher therapeutic dosage in obsessive-compulsive disorder and the time of drug taking effect is earlier in depression than in other disorder.

Objective:To explore the possible specific perinatal risk factors in the development of autism through comparing the perinatal risk factors between patients with autism and other psychotic disorders.Methods: In this retrospective research,197 cases with autism and 93 cases with other psychotic disorders were selected and assessed with the self-made scale of perinatal risk factors.Statistical analyses were performed using t test and Chi-square test.Results:Compared with the control group,the autistic subjects had a significantly higher frequency of the perinatal risk factors(51 % vs.68%,P=0.003),particularly the rate of catching a cold during their mothers' pregnancy(14.2% vs.6.5%,P=0.038)and the rate of prematurity(10.7% vs.3.2%,P=0.022)than the control subjects.Feeding methods was different between the two groups(P=0.038).Conclusion:Catching a cold during mothers' pregnancy,prematurity and feeding methods may be related to the development of autism.

Objective: Exploring the epidemiological state of pervasive developmental disorder in 2-6 year-old children in Beijing. Methods: A total of 21866 children aged 2-6 year-old were recruited from permanent residents of Beijing by 2-phase cluster sampling.The Clancy Autism Behavior Scale was used for screening.The Childhood Autism Rating Scale and DSM-Ⅳ were used for diagnosis.Results: 16 children were diagnosed as pervasive developmental disorder (14 with autistic disorder, 1 with atypical autistic disorder, 1 with Rett syndrome).The false negative rate was 0.80 ‰.The prevalence of pervasive developmental disorder was 0.73 ‰, the adjusted prevalence was 1.53 ‰,the average annual detective rate was 0.11‰.The prevalence rate had no difference in distribution between urban-rural, among different age groups, sex and nations(?2=0.11~1.85,P=0.739-0.173).The low family income was related to high prevalence significantly ( tendency ?2=4.70,P=0.030 ).25% children with pervasive developmental disorder had not been identified by parents or had not been to clinics.80% children with pervasive developmental disorder had not get intervention.All children had demand to get intervention. Conclusions: The prevalence of pervasive developmental disorder in 2-6 year-old children in Beijing was not low.Low family income is the risk factor.The rate of intervention was low.The government should pay close attention to the children with pervasive developmental disorder and their needs.

Objective To compare the risk factor of chilldren with autism and ordinary children during perinatal period. Methods One hundred and fourty children with autism and 82 ordinary children were reviewed by self-written general circumstance questionnaire and risk factor questionnaire. Results Viral influenza during pregnancy (x2 =15.29) ,bom suffocate( x2 =6. 04) , premature delivery (x2 =6. 48) , dystocia (x2 =2. 83) and artificial feeding ( x2 = 6. 02 ) were risk factors for children autism (P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Childeren autism is associated with risk factors in rinatal period. Early dectecion and early prevention and treatment may improve the outcome.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the anxiety condition and educational background of the autistic children's parents. Methods Questionnaires for the self-evaluation of anxiety were collected from the parents of 140 children with autism. Results The autistic children's mothers had significantly higher score of anxiety than the fathers (42. 73 ±8. 25) (t =6. 783,P ＜0. 05). The autistic boy's parents had significantly higher anxiety pressure than autistic girl's parents ( 51.38 ± 11.24 vs. 43.23 ± 6. 12) ( t = 4. 894,P ＜0. 05). The anxiety intensity of the autistic children's parents was negatively correlated with the parents'educational background ( F = 10. 788, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion The autistic children' s parents had certain anxiety,which is correlated with the their educational background and genders of the autistic children. It is necessary to interfere the negative mood to facilitate the treatment of the autistic children.

Objective:To test the validity and reliability of Chinese version of Psycho-Educational Profile (C-PEP) for children with autism in order to develop an assessment tool suitable for Chinese autistic children.Methods:A sample of 438 children who were diagnosed as autism according to the Diagnostic and Statisti-cal Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition (DSM-IV)criteria and aged from 2 to 11 coming from four differ-ent medical or educational rehabilitation agencies of Beijing,Wuhan,Shenzhen and Changchun were selected.488 Children with 2 to 7 years old were sampled from ordinary kindergartens.This study examined the validity and reli-ability of C-PEP using autism sample.Construct validity was tested with the C-PEP by inter-subscale Pearson corre-lations and confirmative factor analysis.Criterion-related validity was tested with the Peabody Picture and Vocabula-ry Test (PPVT),Combined Raven Test (CRT),Adaptive Behavior Scale (ABS),Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS)and the age as criteria.Discriminate validity was obtained by comparing the differences between the typi-cal and autism samples with the total scores of C-PEP.Internal consistency and rater reliability of C-PEP were ex-amined by Cronbach α,ANOVA of rater variation and intra-class correlation coefficients.Results:The inter-sub-scale correlations of C-PEP were medium relevance,the subscale and domain correlations were relatively high.Confirmative factor analysis indicated a relatively high fitting index between the model and sample da-ta.Regarding the concurrent validity of the C-PEP,the development total score was significantly correlated with the Raven's IQ,PPVT IQ,and ADQ scores,pathological behavior total score was positively related to the CARS score.T test results showed that children with autism were significantly behind the typical children at all age lev-els.Results also revealed that the internal consistency based on coefficient alpha and the intra-class correlation coef-ficients of raters for all subtests of C-PEP were reliable.Conclusion:It suggests that the Chinese version of Psycho-Educational Profile (C-PEP)is of good validity and reliability,and it could be used as an effective tool for measur-ing children with autism.

Objective:To analyze the prenatal ultrasound manifestation of trisomy 21 syndrome and investigate the clinical significance of prenatal ultrasound in screening 21-trisomy syndrome.Methods:A retrospective analysis of prenatal ultrasound results of 200 fetuses diagnosed with 21-trisomy syndrome by karyotype from May 2017 to August 2018 in Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital. Ultrasound abnormalities were divided into isolated soft markers, simple structural abnormalities, complex ultrasound markers. The relationship between these markers and trisomy 21 was analysed.Results:200 fetuses with trisomy 21 syndrome diagnosed by karyotype, in which 39 cases (19.5%, 39/200) abnormalities were detected by ultrasound, including soft indexes and structural abnormalities/other abnormalities. The rates of isolated soft indexes, simple structural abnormalities/ other abnormalities and complex ultrasound markers were 15.5%(31/200), 2.0%(4/200), 2.0%(4/200), respectively. The most common of soft markers in the first trimester was thickened nuchal translucency (4/18), thickened nuchal fold (13.19%, 24/182) in the second trimester, followed by nasal bone dysplasia, tricuspid regurgitation and polyhydramnios (1.65%, 3/182). The most common structural malformations in the second trimester was cardiovascular malformation (3.30%, 6/182).Conclusions:Prenatal ultrasound has a role to play in the screening of 21-trisomy syndrome, but exerts certain limitations. It is necessary to strengthen the understanding of the ultrasonographic features of trisomy 21 and improve the detection rate of abnormal indicators. Meanwhile, it should be combined with serological screening, non-invasive prenatal testing technology to increase the detection rate of trisomy 21.

Objective: To evaluate the reliability and validity of warning signs checklist developed by the National Health and Family Planning Commission of the People′s Republic of China (NHFPC), so as to determine the screening effectiveness of warning signs on developmental problems of early childhood. Method: Stratified random sampling method was used to assess the reliability and validity of checklist of warning sign and 2 110 children 0 to 6 years of age(1 513 low-risk subjects and 597 high-risk subjects) were recruited from 11 provinces of China. The reliability evaluation for the warning signs included the test-retest reliability and interrater reliability. With the use of Age and Stage Questionnaire (ASQ) and Gesell Development Diagnosis Scale (GESELL) as the criterion scales, criterion validity was assessed by determining the correlation and consistency between the screening results of warning signs and the criterion scales. Result: In terms of the warning signs, the screening positive rates at different ages ranged from 10.8%(21/141) to 26.2%(51/137). The median (interquartile) testing time for each subject was 1(0.6) minute. Both the test-retest reliability and interrater reliability of warning signs reached 0.7 or above, indicating that the stability was good. In terms of validity assessment, there was remarkable consistency between ASQ and warning signs, with the Kappa value of 0.63. With the use of GESELL as criterion, it was determined that the sensitivity of warning signs in children with suspected developmental delay was 82.2%, and the specificity was 77.7%. The overall Youden index was 0.6. Conclusion The reliability and validity of warning signs checklist for screening early childhood developmental problems have met the basic requirements of psychological screening scales, with the characteristics of short testing time and easy operation. Thus, this warning signs checklist can be used for screening psychological and behavioral problems of early childhood, especially in community settings.
