Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2012;19(1):41-43
ObjectiveTo investigate the significance of clinical feature in the source localization of epileptogenic zone in children with frontal lobe epilepsy.MethodsThirty children who were diagnosed frontal lobe epilepsy consecutively admitted to the pediatric department of Shengjing hospital from Oct 2010 to Jun 2011 were recruited for retrospective study.All the cases were subject to video-electroencephalogram monitoring.Results Seventy-six episodes with clear origins of the electroencephalogram were monitored in 30 cases,including orbital frontal attack 11 times (14.5%),dorsolateral frontal attack 33 times (43.4%),mesial frontal attack 32 times (42.1% ).The correlation analysis showed that the head and eye deviation (47 times,61.8% ),asymmetric tonic seizures (32 times,42.1% ) and parakinesia seizures (29 times,38.2% ) prompted the focus was located in the dorsolateral frontal and mesial frontal.But there was no significant difference between the two areas ( x2 =10.58,9.67,11.55,P >0.05).The vocalization,manual pedal automatism and emotional seizure prompted the focus was located in the dorsolateral frontal and orbitofrontal;and the emotional seizure was significant differences between the two areas(x2 =38.68,P <0.001 ).Emotional seizure was the characteristic of orbitofrontal attack.Conclusion The clinical features have important significance in the judgment of the source localization of epileptogenic zone in children with frontal lobe epilepsy.The emotional seizure could be considered as the characteristic attack of orbitofrontal.

Objective To study the factors which affect the preparation of compound lobelia gel and establish the optimal preparation process. Methods Based on single factor test, formability, spread performance, stability were used as comprehensive evaluation indicators to select the preparation process by orthogonal design, taking the dosage of carbopol-940, drug loading, 5% hydroxy ethyl benzene ethanol solution and triethanolamine as factors.The content of scutellarin in gel was determined by HPLC.Results The best prescription of compound lobelia gel was as follows: substrat of carbopol-940 was 0.25 g, 10% Azone for promoting the permeability was 2 g, pH regulator of triethanolamine was 1.0 g, moisturizer of glycerol was 0.4 g; preservatives of 5% ethylparaben ethanol solution was 0.3 g; the drug loading was 1 g processed herbs per 1 g gel. Conclusion The preparation process of compound lobelia gel is simple, the product is texture and delicate stable.

Objective:To assess the role of EGFR mutations on pemetrexed response in patients with advanced lung adenocarcino-ma. Method: Forty pulmonary adenocarcinoma patients with evaluable lesions were retrospectively screened .They had been treated with pemetrexed-included chemotherapy and had EGFR gene test results. The evaluation endpoints were overall response rate,disease control rate and progression free survival. Result:No significant statistical difference was seen in overall response rate(ORR) (44.4%VS 31.8%, respectively) and disease control rate(DCR) (88.9%VS 81.8%, respectively ) between EGFR wild group and EGFR muta-tion group, but patients in EGFR wild group had longer progression free survival(PFS) ( 8.9 months VS 5.3 months;P=0.046). Conclu-sion:EGFR mutation status can influence the efficacy of pemetrexed.

Pluronic modified polyamidoamine (PAMAM) conjugate (PF127-PAMAM) was prepared and the inhibiting effect of MDR against MCF-7/ADR was investigated with doxorubicin (DOX) as model drug. 1H NMR and FTIR spectra showed that the conjugate was synthesized successfully. Element analysis accurately measured that 27.63% amino of per PAMAM was modified by pluronic (PAMAM : PF127, 1 : 35.37 mole ratio). PF127-PAMAM showed an increased size and a reduced zeta potential compared to PAMAM. PF127-PAMAM had lower hemolytic toxicity and cytotoxicity due to the reduced zeta potential and the protection of PF127. Each PF127-PAMAM molecular could load 19.58 DOX molecules, and the complex exhibited sustained and pH-sensitive release behavior. PF127-PAMAM/DOX exhibited weaker cytotoxicity than free DOX in MCF-7 cells; while the complex showed much stronger reverse effect of drug resistance in MCF-7/ADR cells, and resistance reversion index (RRI) was as high as 33.15.

Objective To examine the association between one-hour plasma glucose (1-hPG) level during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and serum lipid profiles in individuals with NGT. Methods 6 402 individuals with NGT who underwent a 75 g OGTT were screened from four communities of Hefei suburban areas, aged over 40 years. Then 1 291 cases of NGT were randomly selected as the object of this research by random data table method. They were divided into NGT-1 group (1-h PG < 8.6 mmol/L, n = 597)and NGT-2 group(1-h PG≥8.6 mmol/L, n = 694). Pearson correlation analysis and multivariate linear regression analyses were performed to assess correlations between 1-h PG levels and lipid profiles. Results (1) The average values of body mass index were 24.3 kg/m2 in NGT-1 group, and 24.5 kg/m2 in NGT-2 group. (2) Compared with individuals in NGT-1 group , fasting plasma glucose , two-hour plasma glucose during OGTT , HbA1c , triglyceride (TG), and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-c) levels, TG/HDL-c ratios, and total cholesterol(TCH)/HDL-c ratios were significantly higher in individuals than in NGT-2 group. By contranst, body mass index, blood pressure , TCH and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels were not significantly different between NGT-1 group and NGT-2 group. (3) The multiple linear regression analyses showed that 1 h PG levels positively correlated with TG in individuals in both NGT-1 group and NGT-2 group (P < 0.01). In addition, 1-h PG levels negatively correlated with HDL-c ratio in both groups (P < 0.01). Conclusion 1-h PG levels during OGTT in overweight individuals with NGT closely correlate with HDL-c and TG levels.

Objective To evaluate the performance of bone suppression images on the detection of lung nodules in comparison with the radiologists'reading results.Methods There were 141 standard posteroanterior digital chest radiographs,which included 95 patients with a solitary nodule and 46 controls.In this observational study,4 observers,including 2 radiologists and 2 residents,in-dicated their confidence level regarding the presence of a nodule for each lung,first by use of standard images,then with the addition of bone suppression images.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve analysis was used to evaluate the observers'performance. Results Average nodule size was (1.9±1)cm (range from 0.9 cm to 2.9 cm).The mean value of the area under the ROC curve (AUC)was significantly improved from 0.844 with use of standard images alone to 0.873 with use of bone suppression images (P<0.01).Conclusion The use of bone suppression images can improve radiologists'performance on detection of lung nodules on chest radiographs.

Objective To evaluate the effect of CT temporal subtraction(TS) for detection of lung nodules.Methods 80 cases of CT images (current and previous CT images) and corresponding CT TS images were presented, which included 30 cases with nodules(75 nodules) and 50 controls.4 observers, including 2 radiologists and 2 residents, indicated their confidence level regarding the presence of a new emerging or larger or solid component than before,which first used standard CT images, then with the addition of CT TS images.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the observers'' performance.Results The mean value of the area under the ROC curve (AUC) were 0.860 and 0.925 for four observers without and with TS images,respectively(P<0.01).Average sensitivity for detection of lung nodules was improved from 77.3%(58/75) to 89.3%(67/75) by using CT TS images.Conclusion The use of CT TS images can significantly improve radiologists'' performance for detection of lung nodules,especially when a small size solid or subsolid nodule presents near the pulmonary hilum.CT TS is more helpful for residents.
