Objective To explore the developmental characteristics of different functional levels of autism and the diffe-rence in children. Methods A total of 159 autistic children aged 13-71 months including 85 high-functioning autistic (HFA) chil-dren and 74 low-functioning autistic (LFA) children were evaluated for their developmental characteristics by the development scales from the psycho-educational profile-revised (PEP-R). Results Within the same age group, both HFA and LFA children had obvious unbalance in individual ability development (H=41.68~113.51, P<0.01). Impaired cognitive performance is most common in HFA children. The development of cognitive performance was inconsistent with cognitive expression while the gross motor development was normal. The ability development in LFA children were all impaired, especially in imitation, cogni-tive performance and cognitive expression. With increasing age, the scores of imitation, perception, cognitive performance, cog-nitive expression and overall development quotient were increased gradually in HFA children (P<0.05) while the scores of cogni-tive performance and overall development quotient were decreased in LFA children. Conclusions Autistic children tend to have abnormal developmental progress and order, and individual ability development varies by functional level in autistic children with increasing age.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the application of chest-abdomen longitudinal diameter ratio,total lung area and lung longitudinal diameter in different gestational ages by two-dimensional ultrasonography.MethodsFive hundred and ninty-two fetus of normal singleton pregnancy between 18 and 40 weeks were ultrasonic scanned by standard 4-chamber view and fetus torso coronal section.The heart area,thoracic area,bilateral lungs pointed to the corresponding diaphragmatic dome gallery on the top of the vertical distance,diaphragmatic dome iterated top to the bottom of the fetal bladder distance were measured respectively.Related regression analysis was done on fitting total lung area and longitudinal diameter with pregnant increasing.ResultsA normal pregnancy fetal total lung area and lung longitudinal diameter were increased as long as the gestational age.The best-fit regression equations of total lung area was:Y =0.83 X +13.894,R2 =0.914;Lung longitudinal diameter was:Y =0.669 X + 3.124,R2 =0.892.Chest-abdomen longitudinal diameter ratio from 18 to 40 weeks gestation was in constant range:0.44 - 0.59.Conclusions Chest-abdomen longitudinal diameter ratio from 18 to 40 weeks gestation is in constant range.The normal pregnancy fetal total lung area and lung longitudinal diameter were increased as long as the gestational age.These parameters may be useful for the prenatal assessment of lung development.

Objective To explore the differences in morphology and structure of collagen fiber of the hilar bile duct between human and rat. Methods The morphology and structure of vertical and horizontal cross-section of human and rat collagen fiber of the normal and dilated hilar bile duct, and their changes under stress were observed after Masson trichrome staining. Results The morphology and structure of collagen fiber of hilar bile duet in human was similar to that in rat. The collagen fiber mainly distributed in the middle and outer layer of the hilar bile duct. The wave-like collagen fiber bundles were arranged in parallel, consistent with the longitudinal axis direction of the bile duct, and connected by the small branches. Conclusions The morphology and structure of collagen fiber of the hilar bile duct in human is similar to that in rat. The anatomical structure of the collagen fiber is adapted to its function.

Objective To explore the effect of hepatocyte growth factor on peripheral nerve regeneration. Methods Sciatic nerve contusion injury was made by a custom-made clamp in Wistar rats,in which human hepatocyte growth factor expressed by adenoviral vector(Ad-HGF)was injected into the muscle around the injured nerve.The results of nerve regeneration were evaluated by sciatic nerve function index(SFI),muscle wet weight,neural electrophysiology and image analysis. Results Four weeks after sciatic nerve injury,the results of sciatic nerve function index(SFI),muscle wet weight,neural electrophysiology and image analysis showed better nerve regeneration in group injected with HGF than control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Hepatocyte growth factor can promote axon regeneration and functional recovery and is an effective neurotrophic factor for peripheral nerve regeneration after injury.

Objective·To explore effects of pCPT-cAMP on proteinuria and dedifferentiation of podocytes in adriamycin (ADR)-induced nephropathy mice. Methods·Male BALB/c mice were divided into three groups. The control group did not make any intervention, and the other mice were administrated with ADR in a dose of 10 mg/kg by intravenous injection (ADR group). Some ADR-injected mice were treated with pCPT-cAMP [50 mg/(kg·d)] by intraperitoneal injection everyday (A+P group). Albumin urine was detected by Coomassie blue stain. Urine creatinine concentration was estimated by ELISA. The expression of WT-1 was detected by immunohistochemical staining. Immunofluorescence staining and Western blotting were used to evulate the dedifferentiation of podocytes. Results·Compared with the control group, the ratio of urinary albumin/creatinine in ADR nephropathy mice was significantly increased. WT-1 immunohistochemical staining showed that the number of podocytes was significantly decreased, while immunofluorescence double staining of podocyte-specific protein synaptopodin and podocalyxin remarkably reduced, and the expression of desmin was increased. pCPT-cAMP intervention decreased the ratio of albumin/creatinine in ADR mice, elevated the quantity of WT-1 positive cells and the expression of synaptopodin and podocalyxin, while desmin expression decreased. Conclusion·pCPT-cAMP activates the PKA signaling and protects ADR nephropathy mice by preventing the loss of podocytes and ameliorating the urine albumin/creatinine ratio, which may be mediated by pCPT-cAMP-prevented dedifferentiation of podocytes.

AlM:To explore treatment efficacy of the lower eyelid twitch muscle transposition surgery in senile entropion.METHODS:Fifty cases (86 eyes) of senile lower eyelid entropion patients underwent lower eyelid twitch muscle transposition correction surgery as the experimental group, and the other 42 cases (68 eyes) of senile lower eyelid entropion patients received orbicularis muscle shortening correction as controls group. The correction rate, double eyelid symmetry and overcorrection rate of patients were observed one week after surgery. The patients were followed up for 6~12mo to be observed the long-term recurrence rate, double eyelid symmetry and overcorrection rate.RESULTS: One week after operation, eyelid symmetry, overcorrection rate of experimental group and control group had significant difference (P<0. 05); After followed up for 6 ~12mo, eyelid symmetry, overcorrection rate of experimental group and control group had significant difference (P<0. 05). CONCLUSlON: Folding and orbicularis muscle shortening treatment of senile entropion was compared with the lower eyelid twitch muscle transposition surgery treatment of senile entropion, We can find that clinical results in double eyelid surgery symmetry and overcorrection rate are of obvious advantage.

Objective To Investigate the influence of high-intensity pulsed electromagnetic field (HIPEMF) on neural differentiation of neonatal rats neural stem cells in vitro.Methods Neural stem cells (NSCs) were isolated from the subventricular zone of 3-day-old neonatal rats and cultured with serum-free condition medium for 14 days.All the NSCs were then randomly classified into an experimental group which received the stimulation of HIPEMF (0.1 Hz,4 T,8 pulses) and a control group which received no special intervention.Differentiation of the culture was induced by addition of 10％ fetal bovine serum on the first day after intervention,the morphological changes of cells were observed under the microscope at different time points.The NSCs adhered to the wall and differentiated for seven days,the immunofluorescence was employed to observed and calculate the ratio of differentiated cells with astrocyte marker GFAP or neuronal markers TUJ1.RT-PCR and western blotting were used to measure the expression levels of the differentiated cells based on gene and protein levels,respectively.Results Immunofluorescence staining showed the number of TUJI positive cells in the experimental group(33.4％ ± 5.1％)was significantly more than the control group (26.5％ ± 7.0％),while the number of GFAP positive cells was decreased(23.9％ ± 5.0％) as compared with the control group(36.2％ ± 2.2％).RT-PCR showed that the TUJ1 mRNA expression levels in the experimental group was (1.682 ± 0.086) times of the control group.Western blot showed that the expression of TUJ1 (0.729 ±0.061) in the experimental group was higher than in the control group (0.590 ± 0.157),while the expression of GFAP in the experimental group (0.566 ± 0.056) was less than in the control group(1.034 ± 0.051).Conclusions HIPEMF facilitates differentiation of neural stem cells to neurons,at the cost of reducing astrocytic differentiation.
