[Objective]AIM To explore the differentiation of neural stem cells from rat embryonic spinalcord in the serum free condition culture medium of OECs.[Method]OECs were acquired by dissection ofolfactory nerve ensheathing and cultured for 20 hours,then suspending cells were put intoselective culture medium and cultured in the fibernectin coated plate.The activity of OECs was detected by MTT method on different periods and the best situation was selected out and serum-free cultured.Exudates of OECs was added into neural stem cells of the third generation.The differentiation of neural stem cells were observed under inverted microscope.The neural stemcells cultured were identified by immumofluorescence method.[Result]The activity of OECs was high on the 9~(th) day and the 12~(th) day.The serum free condition culture medium of OECs induced 53% neuralstem cells to differentiate into neuron-like cells and 42% neural stem cells into astrocytes cells.[Conclusion]The activity of OECs on different periods is different.The serum free condition culture medium of OECs can obviously induced neural stem cells to differentiate into mature neuronecells.

Objective To evaluate the serum 25?hydroxy vitamin D3 level in patients with multiple sclerosis(MS)and normal healthy population,as well as the correlation between addition of oral 1,25?hydroxy vitamin D3 and the prevention of MS relapse and progression. Methods There were 60 cases in the relapsing?remitting MS(RRMS)group and 68 cases in the healthy group,respectively;and the differences in the sex,age, serum 25?hydroxy vitamin D3 level of the two groups were counted and evaluated. In addition ,the 60 cases of patients were divided randomly into the hormone therapy group and the addition treatment group ,with 30 cases in each group;the addition treatment group was added oral calcitriol soft capsules on the basis of the hormone therapy group;EDSS score evaluation was conducted on the two groups 6,12 and 24 months after treatment,the relapse frequency was counted after 24 months,and the relapse interval was calculated. Results The serum 25?hydroxy vitamin D3 levels in the patient group and the healthy group were(18.75 ± 8.35)nmol/L and(23.28 ± 9.31)nmol/L, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the relapse frequency (P < 0.01),the relapse interval(P < 0.05),and EDSS score(after 24 months)(P < 0.05)between the hormone therapy group and the addition treatment group after treatment;while the differences in the EDSS score (after 6 months)(P = 0.457) and the EDSS score(after 12 months)(P = 0.118)between the two groups showed no statistically significance. Conclusion The serum 25?hydroxy vitamin D3 level in MS patients was markedly lower than that in normal healthy population. Addition of 1,25?hydroxy vitamin D3 contributes to preventing the relapse rate of MS and extending the relapse interval;in addition,maintaining long?term of oral 1,25?hydroxy vitamin D3 facilitates to delaying the progression of disabled disease.

OBJECTIVETo explore the impacts on the cognitive level of the children with mental retardation (MR) treated with JIN's three scalp needling therapy and the training for cognitive and perceptual disturbance so as to seek the more effective therapeutic method for the treatment of MR in children. Methods Sixty-six MR children were randomized into a head-point needle-retaining therapy + training group (group A) and a training after acupuncture group (group B). Seven cases and 12 cases were dropped in the two groups respectively. Twenty-six cases accomplished the treatment in the group A and 21 cases in the group B. In the group A, the points on the head were stimulated and the needles were retained (30 min after the general acupuncture, the needles on the body points were removed; and those on the head points were retained for 1 h, including Sishenzhen, Naosanzhen, Zhisanzhen and Niesanzhen). Simultaneously, the training for the cognitive perceptual disturbance was combined. In the group B, 1 h after needle retaining at the body points and head points, all the needles were removed; the training for the cognitive perceptual disturbance was followed. The treatment was given once a day, and the treatment for 3 months was required. Before and after treatment, the Wechsler intelligence scale for children (WISC) was used for evaluation and observation of verbal intelligence quotient (VIQ) , performance intelligence quotient (PIQ) and full-scale intelligence quotient (TFIQ) and score changes of 11 items such as information, picture vocabu; lary, arithmetic, picture generalization, comprehension, etc.

RESULTSAfter treatment, FIQ, VIQ and PIQ scores were different significantly as compared with those before treatment (all P<0. 01). In the group A, the results of picture vocabulary, animal egg laying, maze, block design and geometric figure were all improved significantly (all P<0. 05). In the group B, the results of information, comprehension, block design and geometric figure were all improved significantly (all P<0. 05). After treatment, concerning the value difference in FIQ and PIQ of the two groups; the changes in the group A were more significant (both P<0. 01). After treatment, the results of picture vocabulary and maze were improved significantly in the group A as compared with the group B (both P<. 01). The IQ categories changed apparently after treatment in the two groups, toward the higher level in tendency generally, but without significant difference (both P>0. 05).

CONCLUSIONThe simultaneous treatment with head point retaining of JIN's three needling therapy and the training for cognitive and perceptual disturbance obviously improves children patients' verbal comprehension, expression ability, hand-eye coordination ability, attention, logical reasoning ability and visual perception. The efficacy is better than that in the treatment of the training after acupuncture.

Metabolic bone disease of prematurity (MBDP) is an important chronic disease in the neonates. The metabolic abnormalities of calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D and others in premature can lead to decline of bone mineral content, decrease of trabecular bone quantity, thinning of cortical bone, etc., which can cause rickets in severe cases and even fracture. Low gestational age and low birth weight of premature are important risk factors for metabolic bone disease. The diagnosis relies on clinical features as well as laboratory, radiological and ultrasonographic examinations. The treatment includes reinforcement of the passive movement, supplementiation of the calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D, better prevention and so on. Early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment can reduce the incidence of sequelae of metabolic bone disease, and reduce the long-term impact on premature infants.

Objective:To investigate the effects of scenario-based teaching on the comprehensive abilities of nurses in the department of cardiac surgery from the perspective of the script theory.Methods:From March 2020 to April 2022, 65 junior nurses in the department of cardiac surgery of The First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University were divided into control group ( n=33) and experimental group ( n=32). The control group received scenario-based teaching, while the experimental group received scenario-based teaching from the perspective of the script theory. The two groups were compared in terms of theoretical and skills assessment scores, comprehensive clinical abilities, and satisfaction with teaching. SPSS 20.0 was used to perform the t test. Results:After 6 months of teaching, the experimental group showed a significantly higher theoretical score [(91.37±5.34) vs. (86.22±6.28), P<0.05] and a significantly higher practical score [(91.55±5.36) vs. (84.48±4.52), P<0.05] compared with the control group. The total score and individual scores of comprehensive clinical abilities were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0.05). The experimental group was superior to the control group with respect to the total score and individual scores of satisfaction with teaching. Conclusions:Scenario-based teaching from the perspective of the script theory can improve the comprehensive clinical abilities of nurses in cardiac surgery.

Objective To discuss the impacts of stroke center construction upon therapeutic indexes for di-agnosing and treating patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods Patients were divided into a control group (180 patients)and a formal group(245 patients)based on the time of stroke center construction.Patients in both groups were recorded time points in the course of diagnosis and treatment,and compared in number of cases with intravenous thrombolysis,number of cases receiving intravascular interventional therapies,DTN(door-to-needle) time,number of deaths,National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)scores upon grouping,NIHSS scores after four weeks,NIHSS scores after 3 months,days of hospital stay and hospital charges.Results After the con-struction of the stroke center,time spent in different links were decreased.The number of cases with pure intrave-nous thrombolysis and DTN time(shorter than 60 min)were increased,and the difference were statistically signifi-cant(P<0.01).The number of cases who only received intravascular interventional therapies is increased,mean-while,DTN time was decreased,NIHSS scores after 4 weeks was increased and NIHSS scores after 3 months were also increased(P < 0.05)in these cases. No statistically significant differences existed in number of cases who were treated by bridging with intravenous thrombolysis in combination with intravascular interventional therapies and death cases(P=0.153,P=0.247).There were no statistically significant differences in days of hospital stay and hospital charges(P=0.152,P=0.406).Conclusions After the stroke center construction,it is helpful for significantly improving medical institutions′diagnosis and treatment of stroke,reducing time of such diagnosis and treatment in different links,shortening DTN time,increasing thrombolysis rate,improving patients′prognosis and bringing more benefits to patients with acute ischemic stroke by optimizing procedures for diagnosing and treating stroke.

Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder resulting from ataxia-telangiectasia mutated(ATM) gene mutation.ATM involved in DNA repair.ATM is made up of 66 exons.Its mutation forms are complex, including nonsense mutation, missense mutation, shear site mutation, insertion and deletion, etc.The patients are characterized by progressive cerebellar atrophy and ataxia, disturbance of eye movement, telangiectasia and dystonia, a high risk of cancer and immunodeficiency.These patients are also hypersensitive to radiotherapy.AT is often neglected at the early stage.As pediatricians, we should pay attention to early ataxia and conduct genetic testing as early as possible to avoid radiation exposure.

In the past decade, significant progress has been made in the study of epilepsy-causing genetic mutations and the molecular mechanisms of epilepsy clinical manifestations.A growing number of studies have shown that the mechanism of action of pathogenic genes related to clinical symptoms shows significant correlation.In the selection of antiepileptic drugs for patients with different gene mutation, early identification of pathogenic genes has guiding significance for the selection of antiepileptic drugs.This review summairzes common epilepsy pathogenic genes, including ion channels genes, cellular metabolism related genes and cell signaling pathway related genes, and research progress on therapeutic targets corresponding to pathogenic genes in recent years.As research deepens, specific gene defects and their machanisms of action provide a basis for studying new treatment methods.

The SRPX2 protein is a secreted protein associated with the development of the nervous system，playing a particularly important role in language development.In childhood，language developmental disorders can severely affect children's physical and mental development，and often coexist with delayed intellectual development.Currently，mutations in this gene are not common in humans.The gene is located on the X chromosome，and both males with mutations and female carriers may develop symptoms；the severity of these symptoms ars not entirely correlated with the location of the mutation.The SRPX2 gene forms a language pathway with the uPAR and FOXP2 genes，affecting language development.Additionally，SRPX2 gene mutations affect the migration of cortical neurons and complement-mediated synaptic elimination.Mutations in the SRPX2 gene that have been reported to date can lead to epilepsy，delayed language development，intellectual disability，autism，microcephaly，polymicrogyria，and hearing impairment，among other conditions.This article reviews the role of SRPX2 in the development of the nervous system and related diseases.
