Objective To evaluate the risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants. Methods Cochrane Library, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Chinese Academic Literature Main Database, Chinese Science and Technology Periodi-cal Database, Wanfang Periodicals and Dissertation Database were searched for articles published from January 2000 to December 2012 on the risk factors of intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants, with retrospective retrieval and manual retrieval as supplement. RavMan5.2 provided by Cochrane was used for meta-analysis. Fixed-or random-effects models were selected according to the results of heterogeneity test. Results Nine studies were conifrmed to be eligible. Odds ratio (OR) and 95%conifdence interval (CI) of the risk factors were as follows:gestation age≤32 weeks (OR=3.29, 95%CI=2.76-3.91), birth weight≤1 500g (OR=2.68, 95% CI=2.24-3.20), maternal complications (OR=1.59, 95% CI=1.23-2.06), intrauterine distress or birth asphyxia (OR=2.42, 95% CI=2.06-2.84), mechanical ventilation (OR=3.23, 95% CI=2.55-4.09), metabolic acidosis (OR=2.88, 95%CI=2.04-4.05), use of high concentration of oxygen (OR=2.98, 95%CI=1.63-5.44), prenatal use of dexametha-sone (OR=0.69, 95%CI=0.55-0.86), respiratory distress syndrome (OR=1.57, 95%CI=1.04-2.39). Those differences were all statistically signiifcant. There was no difference in caesarean section (OR=0.99, 95%CI=0.84-1.17), multiparity (OR=1.05, 95%CI=0.79-1.40) and gender (OR=1.25, 95%CI=0.97-1.59). Conclusions The risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants are gestation age≤32 weeks, birth weight≤1 500 g, maternal complications, intrauterine distress or birth asphyxia, mechanical ventilation, metabolic acidosis, use of high concentration of oxygen, respiratory distress syndrome, but prenatal use of dexamethasone can reduce the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants.

A polymer film of vitamin B1 was obtained at a graphite carbon electrode by cyclic voltammetric method in phosphate buffer solution (PBS). Cyclic voltammograms of the film electrode in PBS (pH 5) exhibited one pair redox waves, Epa=350 mV,Epc=325 mV,different from monomer vitamin B1. The peak currents of poly-VB1 films was proportional to (scan rate)1/2, which showed that the charge transfer was controlled by diffusion in the polymer film. The Poly-VB1 modified electrode showed a good catalytic ability to dopamine and epinephrine. At the modified electrod, the peak potential for oxidation of dopamine occurred at 250 mV and 200 mV for epinephrine, while they were shifted towards the negative direction 100 mV and 300 mV respectively at the bare glassy carbon electrode . And their peak current had a linear relationship to the concentrations in the range of 8.0×10-7~1.0×10-4 mol/L for dopamine and 1.0×10-6~1.0×10-4 mol/L for epinephrine.

Objective To investigate and validate the expression profiles of Ppp3cb and Ppm1g through differential proteomic analysis of hippocampal tissue in NHE1 gene knockout mice with proteomic analysis.Method ① Six 2-week-old NHE1 knockout mice were selected as the model group,and 6 wild-type mice of the same age served as the control group,and their genotypes were detected by agar-gel electrophoresis.Open field test and forced swimming test were used to evaluate the behaviors of mice in the model group and control group,and epileptic seizure was graded according to Racine scoring.② Tandem mass spectrometry was employed to screen the differential proteins in the hippocampus tissues from the model group and the control group.Then the obtained differential proteins were annotated and enriched in the Gene Ontology(GO)database.Search tool for the retrieval of interesting genes(STRING)database was used to analyze protein-protein interaction(PPI)among different proteins.③ The transcriptional and translational levels of Ppp3cb and Ppm1g were detected by qPCR and Western blotting,respectively,and their expression levels in the tissues were observed with immunohistochemistry.Results ① NHE1 was not expressed in the model group.The mice of the model group had shorter total movement distance(P=0.007 3)and less crossing cells(P<0.000 1)in open field test,and longer period of immobility in forced swimming test(P<0.000 1)when compared with those from the control group.② When fold change ≥1.2 times and P<0.05 were set as the significant threshold for differential expression,845 differentially expressed protein sites were detected in the hippocampus,among which 9 proteins(including Ppm1g)were up-regulated and 7 ones(including Ppp3cb)were down-regulated.Gene Ontology(GO)functional analysis showed that after NHE1 knockout,the most significant differences were observed in the concentration of molecular function(MF)related to protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity,concentration of cellular component(CC)related to the plasma membrane,and concentration of biological process(BP)related to negative regulation of biological processes and immune system processes.STRING analysis indicated that the differential proteins Ppp3cb and Slc9a1 directly acted,Ppm1g indirectly acted through Ppp3cb and Slc9a1,and Ppp3cb and Ppm1g interacted.③The transcriptional and translational levels of Ppp3cb were decreased,and its expression level was reduced in the tissues,while those of Ppm1g were increased,and its expression was elevated in the tissues(P<0.05).Conclusion In the hippocampus of NHE1 gene knockout mice,the expression of differential protein Ppp3cb is down-regulated and that of Ppm1g is up-regulated,which provide a basis for further study on their involvement in the pathogenesis of epilepsy.
