[Objective]To observe the effects of chronic renal failure (CRF)on hearing and investigate its mechanism.[Methods] Twenty-nine male wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups:Ⅰthe normal rats as control for 12 days (n=6); Ⅱrats given adenine(ig) for 12 days (n=8); Ⅲthe normal rats as control for 24 days (n=6);Ⅳ rats given adenine(ig) for 24 days(n=9). The rat model of CRF was produced by being perfused of adenine [300mg/kg]for 12d and 24d. Brain-stem auditory evoked potential(BAEP) was utilized to evaluate the auditory function and renal tissue morphology was observed; Serum sampling was used to determine the content of Cr, BuN. The expression of NOSⅡin the cochlear was measured by immunohistochemical technique.[Results] After adenine given for 12d or 24d, the Cr and BuN were in significant higher level than that in control group. The BAEP thresholds were gradually higher than that in control group, the BAEP delitescence prolonged. Light microscopic observation of renal tissue showed that the degree of fibrosis was gradually higher. Data of immune histochemistry about the cochlear tissue showed that the expressions of NOSⅡ were feebly positive in the cochlear vassal texture, inner-outer hairy cell and helical-ganglion cell, and following functional damage of the kidney, their expressions reinforced gradually, amongst which strongest expression was vassal texture, the next helical-ganglion cell, the last inner-outer hairy cell.[Conclusion]CRF can result in deafness. It is likely concerned with toxic effects of the metabolizable substance, the metabolizable dysfunction of the electrolyte, shortage of trace elements, etc. One of the important mechanisms of the effects of CRF on hearing is the toxic damage of NO to cochlea.

Objective To reveal the prevalence of depressive and/or anxiety symptom and disorder in patients with awareness during general anesthesia.Methods 10 patients which had the awareness during general anesthesia were selected into AR group (awareness with recall during general anesthesia group).Face-to-face interviews were used in data collection together with the self-completed HAD scale for depressive and/or anxiety symptom screening.Subjects getting a HAD score of 9 and above were further assessed for depressive and/or anxiety disorders with HAMA scales and HAMD scales.Results The difference of common general state of patients, such as age, weigh and the time during operation were all insignificant between two groups (p>0.05).The rate of patients received general anesthesia only in AR group was higher than that in control group(p<0.05).The prevalence of depressive symptom, the prevalence of depressive or anxiety symptom and the prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptom in AR group were higher than that in control group(p<0.05).The prevalence of depressive disorder, the prevalence of depressive or anxiety disorder and the prevalence of depressive and anxiety disorder in AR group were higher than that in control group too(p<0.05).Conclusion There was high prevalence of depressive and/or anxiety symptom and disorder in patients with recall-awareness during general anesthesia.

Objective:To explore the correlations between self-esteem and life satisfaction in elementary school students. Methods:494 elementary school students were measured with CSES (Children's Self-Esteem Scale) and BMSLSS (Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale). Results: (1) There were significant gender and grade differences on self-esteem in elementary school students. Girls got higher scores(Means were 3.8?0.8?3.8?0.9?3.9?0.8)than boys on achievements, discipline and social morality-help(Means were 3.5?0.9?3.2?0.8?3.6?0.9,F=17.2?47.0?16.6, P

Objective: To compare the differences between urban and rural middle school students on life satisfaction. Methods: 1152 urban and rural middle school students were measured by Multidimensional Students'Life Satisfaction Scale ( MSLSS - CV) . Results: ( 1 ) The urban students had higher scores than their rural counterparts on all the satisfaction dimensions ( mean value differences = 0. 2 - 0. 4. For example, the family satisfaction of urban and rural students were 4. 6?1. 0, 4. 2?1.0 respectively, mean value difference =0. 4; the serf satisfaction of urban and rural students were 4. 6?0. 7 , 4. 4?0. 7 respectively, mean value difference = 0. 2 ) . ( 2 ) The mean values rank (from high to low) of the five dimensions on the satisfaction was family, self, friend, school and living environment in urban students. The mean values rank (from high to low) of the five dimensions on the satisfaction was self, family, friend, school and living environment in rural students. (3 ) The difference between city and countryside had higher explained percentage than popularity on all the satisfaction dimensions. The percents were as follows: 5% , 10% , 4% , 6% , 17% , 11%. Conclusion: There were significant differences on life satisfaction between urban and rural middle school students.

ObjectiveTo explore the validity of Frenchay Activities Index on Chinese stroke patients.MethodsThe 39 stroke patients as stroke group and 39 healthy subjects as control group were assessed by the same rater using Frenchay Activities Index twice. In the first assessment, Barthel index was addititionally used to measure the activities of daily living for the stroke group. The Spearman's correlation coefficient was used to analyse the concurrent validity of the Barthel Index and Frenchay Activities Index in the stroke group. The paired t test was used to compare the scores of Frenchay Activities Index between two groups.ResultsThe correlation coefficient of Frenchay Activities Index and Barthel Index was 0.727 in the stroke group(P<0.001). The scores of each items and the total scores of the Frenchay Activities Index in the stroke group were significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.01).ConclusionFrenchay Activities Index is acceptable for stroke.

Ventricular arrhythmias closely correlates with stress.Not only individuals with organic heart diseases have a high risk of ventricular arrhythmias,healthy individuals are also susceptible to ventricular arrhythmias during stress.Electrophysiological characteristics of myocardium changes apparently during stress and electrical unstability of myocardium increases,which makes reentry and early afterdepolarization easy to happen.

Osteoporosis is a common problem of the elderly. It is important to carry out community-based rehabilitation, care and education to prevent and treat osteoporosis.

Tissues around the post-traumatic knee, including the capsule, synovial, articular cartilage, meniscus, etc., can produce inflammatory mediators. This suggested that post-traumatic knee pain and stiffness are related with local inflammation and inflammatory cytokines.These inflammatory cytokines included the inflammatory response factor of advancement and acceleration, such as tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-1, interleukin-2, interleukin-6, cyclooxygenase, etc. This article reviewed the researches about some inflammatory cytokines surrounding tissue of post-traumatic knee, analyzed current research shortcomings, and established the foundation for further study.
