Objective To investigate the effects of dopaminergic medication on decision-making un-der ambiguity in patients with early Parkinson's disease( PD) . Methods Using Iowa Gambling Task ( IGT) for 24 early non-medication idiopathic PD patients( Hoehn and Yahr Scale≤Ⅱlevel) ,24 early idiopathic PD patients with regular dopaminergic medication and also for 24 healthy controls( HC) whose age,gender,and education match to PD patients to test their ability of decision-making under ambiguity. Results The results showed non-medication PD group showed impairments on digtal span and verbal fluency and decision-making task. There was significant difference in IGT task scores among the three groups(F=6.024, P=0.004) . The total net scores of advantageous choices in IGT were significantly lower in non-medication PD group( (-4.50 ±22.19) scores) than medication PD group((8.83±23.24)scores) and healthy group((15.92±15.77) scores) . The difference of net scores in block1 to block5 between non-medication PD group and medication PD group was gradually increased,and the difference of net scores in block5 was significant(P<0.05) . There was no significant difference in total net scores and net scores in block1 to block5 between medication PD group and healthy group(P>0.05) . As the game processing,medication PD group gradually shifted their se-lections toward the advantageous choices. But non-medication group did not exhibit this shift pattern and the performance was much poorer. Meanwhile, the study also indicated the total net scores of advantageous choices for non-medication PD group was positive correlation to the MoCA scores ( r=0.614, P=0.001). Conclusion The present study has shown that non-medication PD group has impairment in decision-making under ambiguity risk condition and prefer to choose risky options. when exogenous complement dopaminergic medication,the risk decision-making ability of medication PD group has been improved.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of fibrinolytic therapy on renal function in patients with IgA nephropathy. Methods The clinical data of 84 patients with idiopathic IgA nephropathy were analyzed in a retrospective cohort study. According to different drugs of fibrinolytic therapy, the patients were divided into three groups including control group(n=23), urokinase group (n=32) and fibrinogenase group (n=29). Twenty-four-hour urine protein excretion, serum albumin, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), prothrombin time and fibrinogen level between the three groups after 6-month and 1-year treatments were compared. Results Compared to the group before treatment, the urine protein excretions were decreased in all 3 groups with 6-month and 1-year treatments (P<0.01). The urine protein excretion in the urokinase group with 6-month and 1-year treatments were lower than that in the control group (P<0.01). The urine protein excretion in the fibrinogenase group with 1-year treatment were lower that in the control group (P<0.05). After 1-year treatment, the eGFR in urokinase group was significantly increased compared with the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Fibrinolytic therapy can decrease the 24-hour urine protein excretion and improve the renal fuction in those patients with idiopathic IgA nephropathy independent of glucocorticoids and immunosuppressive agents.

Objective To evaluate the olfactory functions in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) with a smell identification test developed for the Chinese population and to examine possible factors contributing to PD patients' olfactory performance.Methods Fifty-five patients with idiopathic and nondementia PD and 55 demographically matched healthy controls (HC) were recruited and their olfactory identification tested using the Chinese Smell Identification Test developed by the Institute of Psychology at Chinese Academy of Sciences.Results Olfactory identification score was significantly lower (t =-6.827,P＜0.01) in the PD group (19.3 ±5.4) as compared with the HC group (26.5 ±5.7).Of all PD patients,63.6％ scored over 1 SD below the age norm.In particular,of those with Hoehn-Yahr ratings between 2 to 3,77.8％ scored over 1 SD below the age norm.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis indicated that a cut-off score of 22.5 on the Chinese Smell Identification Test distinguished between PD patients and HC with a sensitivity of 74.6％ and specificity of 70.9％.Within the PD group,age,education,Hoehn-Yahr rating and Mini-Mental State Examination score were not found to correlate with olfactory performance (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion PD patients in China show significant impairment of olfactory identification,which is effectively captured by the Chinese Smell Identification Test.

Objective To explore the hearing screening, and the change and outcome of hearing impairment of high risk infants. Meth-ods From March, 2015 to March, 2016, 336 high risk infants were screened with otoacoustic emissions (OAE), auditory brainstem response (ABR) and brainstem auditory evoked-potential (BAEP) 0-1, 3, 6, 12 months after born, respectively. Results Among the 336 high risk in-fants, 29 failed the examinations within the 1st month, 37 cases failed in the 3rd month, 27 cases recovered in the 9th month, and 7 cases re-covered in the 12th month, 3 cases were finally diagnosed as deafness (0.89%). Conclusion OAE, ABR combining with BAEP examination may obtain comprehensive diagnosis of hearing impairment for high risk infants, continuous listening comprehension monitoring can effec-tively dynamically observe the hearing impairment, changes and outcome of high risk infants.

Objective To elucidate the effects of SP600125 at different concentrations on the proliferation and osteo-differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs).Methods The hASCs harvested were cocuhured with SP600125 at concentrations of 0 μmol/L,1 μmol/L,5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L in growth medium (OM group) and in osteogenesis medium (OM group),respectively.The DNA quantitative assay was carried out to evaluate proliferation of the hASCs;flow cytometry was used to determine the effect of SP600125 on the cell cycles of hASCs;Alkaline phosphatase level (ALP) and calcium deposition tests were conducted to observe the effects of SP600125 at different concentrations on osteogenic differentiation of the hASCs.Results The proliferation of hASCs was inhibited by 42.1％ when the cells were cocultured with SP600125 at the concentration of 10 μmol/L;the suppression decreased with decreased concentration of SP600125.The hASCs of phase G0/G1 in GM cocultured with SP600125 at the concentration of 10 μmol/L were more than those in GM cocultured with dimethylsulfoxide at the same concentration.ALP test revealed that after 10 days of culture in vitro the staining was more and more weakened and scattered and the ALP activity was more and more decreased with the increased concentration of SP600125.The extracellular calcium deposition of hASCs after 14 days of culture in vitro showed that the size and number of calcium nodules decreased with the increased concentration of SP600125.Conclusion SP600125 can suppress the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of hASCs in vitro.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and accuracy of hammering reverse guide wire technique for safe placement of anterior column retrograde intramedullary screw in pelvic and acetabular surgery.Methods From September 2015 to March 2018,46 patients with pelvic or/and acetabular fracture involving the anterior column were treated with hammering reverse guide wire technique for safe placement of anterior column retrograde intramedullary screw at Department of Orthopaedics,Lishui Municipal Central Hospital.They were 28 men and 18 women,aged from 21 to 85 years (mean,55.6 years).There were 34 pelvic ring fractures,9 acetabular fractures and 3 combined pelvic ring and acetabular fractures.After the anterior lateral spine of pubic tuberosity was drilled by a guide pin and drill bit as the entry point,a reverse guide wire was knocked into the bone lightly by a hammer.For each retrograde intramedullary screwing into the acetabular anterior column,we recorded operation time,fluoroscopic frequency,and attempts to establish an acceptable screw pathway by the guide pin.The accuracy of screwing and the quality of fracture reduction were evaluated by imaging examination.For each patient,we recorded fracture union time and complications.Functional recovery of the pelvis and acetabulum was assessed by postoperative physical examination at the last follow-ups.Results The operation time of retrograde intramedullary screwing for the 46 patients averaged 28.9 minutes (from 16 to 55 minutes);the fluoroscopy frequency averaged 16.3 times (from 9 to 35 times);an acceptable screw pathway was established by the first attempt in 43 of the 46 patients (93.5％) and re-established after adjustment of the guide pin in the other 3.Forty patients were followed up for an average of 15.2 months(from 6 to 36 months).Postoperative CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction showed that all the screws had been placed safely and accurately in the acetabular anterior column.Implant loosening and fracture displacement occurred in one case and lower limb thrombosis in another.No nail breakage,fracture nonunion,incision necrosis or infection,neurovascular injury or femoral head necrosis was observed.All fractures united after an average of 14.7 weeks (from 12 to 18 weeks).According to the Majeed scoring at the last follow-ups,the pelvic and acetabular function was evaluated as excellent in 29 cases,as good in 9,and as fair in 2,giving an excellent and good rate of 95.0％.Conclusion Hammering reverse guide wire technique is an effective method for safe placement of anterior column retrograde intramedullary screw in pelvic and acetabular surgery,because it can increase accuracy of screwing and reduce intraoperative radiation,operation time and incidence of complications though it is simple.

Objectives To study the early effect of treating teenagers with tibial insertion avulsion fracture of anterior cruciate ligament using the single-tibal tunnel,double Endobutton miniature steel plate combined with twin high-strength Ultrabraid Suture suspension fixation under an anthroscopy.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on 21 teenagers with tibial insertion avulsion fracture of anterior cruciate ligament treated between May 2012 and June 2015.They were treated using the single-tibal tunnel,double Endonbutton plate combined with twin Ultrabraid Suture suspension system fixation.The X-ray was taken postoperatively at 1 week,1 month,3 months and every 6 months.Anterior drawer and Lachman tests were used to evaluate the postoperative stability of knee joints,while the Lysholm score was recorded to assess the postoperative recovery.Results The average total intraoperative blood loss,operation duration and follow-up time were(53.95 ± 7.10) ml (ranging from 43 to 68 ml),(38.76 ± 7.71)min(ranging between 27 and 55 min),and(21.86 ± 2.78)months,ranging from 18 to 25 months.All fractures were healed without malunion or nonunion as could be seen in the X-ray taken 3 months after the operation.Moreover,none of the patients suffered from complications such as soft tissue infections or extension lag of the knee joints caused by the femoral intercondylar notch impingement syndrome.The Lysholm score of the last follow-up(97.14 ± 1.35)was significantly higher than that before surgery (40.24 ± 5.81).Conclusion The early efficacy of the single-tibal tunnel,double Endonbutton plate combined with twin Ultrabraid Suture suspension system fixation for teenagers with tibial insertion avulsion fracture of anterior cruciate ligament under arthroscopy is satisfactory.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of children with brucellosis, and to provide a practical basis and experience for clinical diagnosis and treatment of brucellosis.Methods:Retrospective analysis was used to collect clinical data of children with brucellosis diagnosed at the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from May 2015 to October 2017, and their epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, and clinical diagnosis and treatment were summarized.Results:A total of 24 children were included, including 14 males and 10 females, with an average age of 6 years (1 year 2 months to 12 years old). Except February, onset throughout the year, higher incidence was from May to July (14 cases, 58.33%). The exposure history of the children was mainly exposure to cattle and sheep and consumption of beef and mutton (18 cases, 75.00%). The main clinical manifestations were fever in 24 cases (100.00%), bone and joint pain in 14 cases (58.33%), hepatomegaly in 9 cases (37.50%), splenomegaly in 7 cases (29.17%). Tube agglutination test (SAT) was positive in 21 cases (87.50%), weakly positive in 1 case (4.17%) and negative in 2 cases (8.33%). Brucella was detected in all 24 cases by microbial culture, and in 18 cases (75.00%) by blood culture. Eighteen cases (75.00%) had liver dysfunction. Thirteen cases were misdiagnosed, and the misdiagnosis rate was as high as 54.17%. Twenty-two cases had been cured after treatment, 2 cases relapsed and recovered after continued treatment. Conclusions:Children with brucellosis have diverse epidemiology and clinical features, and are easily misdiagnosed. For children with fever, bone and joint pain and exposure history, pediatricians should be alert to the possibility of brucellosis, conduct microbiological and serological tests, in order to timely, accurate and standardized diagnosis and treatment of children with brucellosis.

Objective To analyze the prefrontal electroencephalogram characteristics of patients with emergence delirium(ED)after hip or knee arthroplasty.Methods Sixty-four patients undergoing elective hip or knee arthroplasty were selected,12 males and 52 females,aged≥60 years,BMI 18.5-30.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ.The confusion assessment method-intensive care unit(CAM-ICU)and the Richmond agitation-sedation scale(RASS)were used to determine the occurrence of ED dur-ing postoperative anesthesia.The patients were divided into two groups according to whether delirium oc-curred during emergence from anesthesia:the emergence delirium group(ED group)and the non-emergence delirium group(non-ED group).The patients'raw EEG data during the emergence phase were recorded by the EEG monitor,and the data from before(5-10 minutes after discontinuation of the drug)and after emergence(15-20 minutes after removal of the laryngeal mask)were intercepted and spectrally analyzed.Results Twenty-eight patients(44％)developed ED.EEG changes during emergence from anes-thesia were consistent in both groups:the spectral edge frequency(SEF)was increased,the β and y wave power was increased,and the peak α wave frequency was decreased.Compared with the pre-emergence state,the θ and α wave power were significantly lower and the peak α wave power was significantly lower in the non-ED group during full awakening(P＜0.05),and the difference between the α wave power and the peak α wave power was not statistically significant in the ED group during full awakening.Sample entropy and alignment entropy of patients in the ED group before emergence and in full awakening were significantly higher than those in the non-ED group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The θ wave power,α wave power,and peak α wave power were significantly lower during emergence from anaesthesia in patients with no delirium.In patients who developed ED,there was no significant change in α wave power or peak α wave power dur-ing emergence from anesthesia,but there was an increase in sample entropy and alignment entropy.

Circadian rhythm disorders are closely related to metabolic diseases， which can cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD） by directly acting on the liver or indirectly affecting the liver through the liver-brain axis and intestinal flora. The rhythms of yin and yang， ying （营） and wei （卫）， twelve hours and four seasons in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） chronomedicine are similar to the connotations of modern biological rhythms. From the perspective of chronomedicine of TCM， the incidence of NAFLD is closely related to the abnormality of the daily rhythm of the waxing and waning of yin and yang， the daily rhythm of the circulation of ying and wei， the rhythm of twelve hours and four seasons. Through analyzing the rhythms related to the occurrence， development and prognosis of NAFLD， it is helpful to enhance the understanding of NAFLD in relation to time， so as to better guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment.
