Objective To discuss the clinical features and related factors of psychosis in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and assess the prevalence of psychosis.Methods A total of 82 patients with Parkinson's disease and 69 healthy controls were evaluated by Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale and neuropsychiatric questionnaire.For the PD group,the age at PD onset,type and dose of PD medications,and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) were recorded.Unified Parkinson's disease rating scale (UPDRS,parts Ⅱ and Ⅲ) and Hoehn-Yahr staging were used for the evaluation of the severity of motor dysfunction,Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) for emotional state,montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) for cognition,and scales for outcomes in Parkinson's disease-SLEEP (SCOPA-SLEEP) for quality of sleep.Results The prevalence of psychosis was 36.59％ in PD patients and 2.90％ in the control group.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P＜ 0.001).Among the 30 PD patients with PD psychosis meeting the NINDS/NIMH criteria,patients experienced illusions,false sense of presence,hallucinations and delusions was 22.0％,14.6％,29.3％,and 7.3％,respectively.Univariate analysis showed that age,levodopa equivalent dosage,SCOPA-SLEEP scores,and prevalence of RBD were significantly higher in thePDP group [(71.1±6.18),(628.7±283.2),(15.3±7.28),60.00％] than in the PDNP group [(66.6±9.25),(461.1±317.2),(9.7±7.64),28.85％] (all P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that Hoehn-Yahr staging was a protective factor (OR =0.039,95％ CI:0.004-0.402),while sleep disorder was a risk factor (OR=1.157,95％CI:1.015-1.320).The PD patients with more psychotic symptoms were much older and with higher SCOPA-SLEEP scores,which had a statistically significant difference (P =0.0042,P =0.0112).Conclusions The prevalence of psychosis is much higher in PD patients than in healthy controls.PD psychosis is correlated with older age,larger levodopa equivalent doses,higher SCOPA-SLEEP scores,and prevalence of REM sleep behavior disorder.

Objective To explore the clinical and imaging features of primary lateral sclerosis(PLS).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 3 patients with PLS were analysed.Results 3 patients included 2 females and 1 male.The onset of the disease was insidious.The initial symptoms included rigidity and weakness of right upper limb(case 1),rigidity and weakness of legs(case 2),and pseudobulbar palsy(case 3). As the disease progressed slowly,the patients presented with spastic paralysis of four extremities,reduced muscle strength(3 to 4 degree),clasp-knife like of muscular tension,hyperactivity of tendon reflexes,ankle clonus and presence of Babinski sign.In T2-weighted images of the brain MRI,the abnormal high signals were symmetrically situated in the motor cortex,the posterior limbs of internal capsules,cerebral peduncles and basilar part of pons.1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1HMRS) showed decreases of N-acetylasartate(NAA) and the ratio of N-acetylaspartate/Creatine(NAA/Cr) in the focal regions.Conclusion PLS presents with characteristic features of clinical symptoms,signs and abnormal changes of MRI.In addition,1HMRS may be helpful in diagnosis of this disease.

Objective To analyze effect of oxycodone hydrochloride injection preemptive analgesia on serum cellular immune factors and analgesic effect in postoperative patients with humeral fracture surgery.Methods 52 patients treated by surgical treatment of humeral fractures in our hospital were collected.All patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,26 cases in each group.Preemptive analgesia drugs were given corresponding, before and 24h after surgery, the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), venous blood CD4 +T, CD8 +T cells and CD4 +/CD8 + T levels and analgesic effect were detected in all patients.Results After surgery, compared with control group, the serum levels of TNF-αand IL-6 were lower in experimental group (P<0.05); the venous blood CD4 +T cell and CD4 +/CD8 + T levels were higher(P<0.05), CD8 +T cell level was lower in experimental group (P<0.05);the visual analogue scale(VAS) score was significantly lower in 2,4,6,12 and 24h after surgery in experimental group (P<0.05).Conclusions The oxycodone hydrochloride injection preemptive analgesia can significantly inhibit the increase of the serum TNF-αand IL-6 levels, prevent the decrease of immune function, improve the analgesic effect.

Objective: To establish the methods for extraction and isolation of punicalagin from pomegranate peel, and further study the purification and quantification of punicalagin. Methods: Using an ultrasonic-assisted extraction method, punicalagin in pomegranate peel was extracted at room temperature by 50% ethanol with 20-fold volume of raw material. The content of punicalagin in the crude extract was determined by HPLC. To optimize the purification process of punicalagin, static adsorption and desorption experi-ments were employed to study five kinds of macroporous adsorbent resins (D101, A8-8, NKA-9, HPD-100 and HPD-500) for the one with the highest purification efficacy of punicalagin. In addition, the technical parameters of the macroporous adsorbent resin were opti-mized to obtain punicalagin with higher purity. Punicalagin was further separated and purified by using a reverse phase MCI GEL CHP20P column. Results:HPD500 resin showed the best ability to absorb and separate punicalagin in among five kinds of macro-porous adsorbent resins. The best technical parameters were as follows:the mass concentration of sample solution was 15 mg·ml-1 , the loading amount was 2BV, the pH was 2 and the eluting solvent was 8BV of 30% ethanol. With the best process as described a-bove, the content of punicalagin extracted from pomegranate peel increased from 10. 3% to 30. 7%. The obtained punicalagin could be further purified to 61. 3% from 30% in ethanol eluate by the reverse phase MCI GEL CHP20P column. Conclusion:HPD500 resin is the most effective in the purification of punicalagin from pomegranate peel, and the content of punicalagin can be dramatically increased after the purification by a reverse phase MCI GEL CHP20P column. The optimized process shows good reproducibility and stability.

Objective To understand the situation of iodine deficiency disorders of Cangzhou city, Hebei province, in order to provide the scientific basis for prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders. Methods From 2007 to 2009, dynamic monitoring of iodine deficiency disorders was carried out in low iodized salt coverage places Hejian city and Xian county. Nine towns were randomly chosen in each county, 4 administrative villages were randomly selected in each town, 8 household salts were tested in each village. Every year, 1 - 3 copies of residents water samples were collected for determination of iodine; more than 100 students age 8 - 10 years old were checked the situation of goiter and urinary iodine, more than 40 students selected were measured iodine content of salt from their home; more than 50 women of childbearing age 18 - 40 years were tested of urinary iodine. Thyroid was examined with palpation; water iodine and urine iodine concentration were measured with arsenic-Ce catalytic spectrophotometry; salt iodine was detected by direct titration. Results From 2007 to 2009,median household salt iodine were 4.3,15.9,3.6,18.4,4.6,11.7 mg/kg in Hejian city and Xian county, respectively,iodized salt accounted for 34.03% (98/288), 78.82% (227/288), 29.86% (86/288), 84.72% (244/288), 37.15%(107/288),49.31% (142/288), respectively, the consuming rate of iodized salt were 27.08% (78/288),36.46%( 105/288 ), 28.13% (81/288 ), 49.31% ( 142/288 ), 37.15 % ( 107/288 ), 30.90% ( 89/288 ), respectively. Ten samples of drinking water were tested, water iodine were 5.5 - 34.4 μg/L. From 2007 to 2009, the goiter rate of students aged 8 - 10 years old was below 5%, the median of urinary iodine were 138.1,176.6,112.0 μg/L, ＜ 100 μg/L ratio were 31.6% ( 65/206 ), 25.0% ( 52/208 ) and 44.4% (91/205 ). The median of urinary iodine of child-bearing age women were 167.3,164.2,78.1 μg/L, ＜ 100 μg/L ratio were 28.7%(29/101 ), 19.2%(20/104) and 60.0%(60/100).Conclusions In areas with low coverage of iodized salt, iodine nutrition level are affected, the child-bearing age
