Objective To explore the CT perfusion imaging with acetazolamide (ACZ) challenge test in the diagnosis of chronic cerebral insufficiency.Methods 100 patients undergoing health examination in our hospital from Aug 2009 to Feb 2011 were chosen,52 patients diagnosed as chronic cerebral insufficiency were defined as the case group,and the remaining 48 cases of healthy elderly people were defined as the control group.The brain CT perfusion imaging with acetazolamide challenge test,and the cerebral blood flow (CBF),cerebral blood volume (CBV),mean transit time (MTT) and time to peak (TTP) in anterior cerebral artery (ACA),middle cerebral artery (MCA)cortical branch supply area,MCA deep perforator region,posterior cerebral artery (PCA) and pons part blood supply area were examined in the elderly people of two groups.Results CBV and CBF values in ACA,MCA cortical branch supplyarea,MCA deep perforator region,PCA and pons part blood supply area after ACZ stimulation were significantly lower in case group than the control group (t=3.57,3.39,9.34,11.04,4.21,5.99,9.91,11.10,6.66,9.97,P＜0.01 or 0.001),while MTT and TTP values were significantly higher in case group than in the control group (t =7.21,6.94,16.53,4.82,11.67,6.46,6.11,6.71,6.87,4.82,all P＜ 0.001),CBV and CBF values in the control group were significantly higher after ACZ excitation than before the challenge (t=6.44,6.86,9.72,10.99,7.03,6.33,12.48,14.82,8.98,12.03,all P＜0.001),and the MTT and TTP values in the control group were significantly lower after ACZ excitation than before the challenge (t=7.98,5.77,17.29,8.28,9.74,7.01,7.52,6.32,6.01,5.54,all P＜0.001).Conclusions CT perfusion imaging with acetazolamide challenge test can increase the detection rate of chronic cerebral insufficiency with better clinical significance,and is worthy of promotion.

Objective To study the effect of hospital disposal manners after workplace violence in hos-pital on organizational commitment and turnover intention among the head nurses. Methods Self-made questionnaire about workplace violence in hospital and general condition, organizational commitment question-naire and turnover intention questionnaire were conducted in 122 head nurses who had suffered hospital vio-lence in recent years from all level hospitals of Fujian province. Results The scores of affective commitment and normative commitment of organizational commitment and turnover intention showed significant difference be-tween the groups who suffered positive disposal and who suffered negative interference by the hospital after the violence events (P<0.05), but aggregate score of organizational commitment and the scores of continuance commitment showed no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Hospital disposal manners af-ter the hospital violence and hospital grade were influence factors on turnover intention among the head nurses.Hospital grade was also an influence factor on organizational commitment among the head nurses. Conclu-sions Hospital positive disposal means after the hospital violence on head nurse help to ameliorate organiza-tional commitment and reduce turnover intention among the head nurses.

Objective:To study influence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on coronary artery lesion and plaque sta‐bility using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) manifesting unsta‐ble angina pectoris (UAP) . Methods :A total of 200 patients diagnosed as CAD manifesting UAP were selected.According to complicated with diabetes mellitus or not ,they were divided into normal blood glucose group (n=98) and complicated T2DM group (T2DM group ,n=102). Coronary angiography (CAG) and OCT were used to eval‐uate coronary artery lesion ,assess plaque nature and measure the thickness of plaque fibrous cap in order to confirm plaque stability . Results:Compared with normal blood glucose group ,there were significant rise in percentages of multi-vessel coronary disease (48.98% vs. 78.43% ) ,severe artery stenosis (20.57% vs. 40.21% ) ,lipid plaques (25.00% vs. 39.84% ) and plaques with fibrous cap thickness <65μm (25.93% vs. 45.24% ) in T2DM group , P<0.05 or < 0.01 .Conclusion :Patients with coronary artery disease have more severe coronary artery lesion and high ‐ er incidence rate of multi‐vessel coronary disease and unstable plaque when complicated with type 2 diabetes mellitus .

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of gliomas in children,and assess the value of CT and MRI for diagnosing glioma.Methods Fifty-three children under 14 years old who were admitted into department of neurosurgery of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from Jan.2001 to Dec.2006 were diagnosed as glioma.Their age and sex distribution,clinical symptoms and signs,imaging examinations and pathological examinations were retrospectively analyzed.Results 1.There were 35 males and 18 females.2.The common symptoms and signs were headache and dizziness(32 cases,60.4%),nausea and vomiting(32 cases,60.4%),balance function disorder(31cases,58.5%),episodic convulsion(6 cases,11.3%) and fundus changes(33 cases,62.3%).3.There were 24 gliomas located at supratentorial and 29 gliomas located at infertentorial in this group.4.Thirty-three cases had a CT examination(1 case was wrongly diagnosed) and 28 cases had a MRI examination(all cases were positive);The positive rate of CT for displaying these tumors was 97%,MRI was 100%.5.Pathological examination revealed gliomas in 42 cases after operation.The most common histologically confirmed tumor type reported was astrocytoma,which accounted for 40.5%(17 cases),and the second was medulloblastoma,which accounted for 31.0%(13 cases).Conclusions 1.Glioma are more frequently affected in males than females in children.2.It often occurs in cranial posterior fossa and midline,which causes the symptoms of intracranial hypertension including headache,dizziness,nausea,vomiting,fundus changes,and so on.3.It often occurs in infertentorial,which causes the symptoms of balance function disorder,since it can invade cerebellum directly or indirectly.4.CT and MRI play an important role in the diagnosis of glioma in children.MRI is more valuable than CT in glioma diagnosis.5.Histological types of glioma in children are significantly different from adults.The most common histological types are astrocytoma and medulloblastoma.

Objective To explore the effect of application of continue performance test (CPT) in screening of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder( ADHD ). Methods Thirty-five children with ADHD and65 normal children had been applied with CPT and Conner questionnaire test. Used rank sum test to examine the outcome, established receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, analyzed the most valuable index among various data, formulated abnormal critical value, and carried on a consistency check between CPT screening outcome and clinical diagnosis outcome. Results Each CPT index of 35 children with ADHD was obviously higher than those of normal children(P＜ 0.05 ). Most indexes' area under the ROC curve exceeded 0.7, reactive time of VST was the highest among each index which achieved 0.915. It was high conformity between CPT screening outcome and clinical diagnosis outcome (Kappa = 0.935 ). Conclusion CPT can be applied in ADHD screening.

Objective To investigate the effects of dexamethasone(DEX)on the secretion of interleukin (IL)-17 and interferon(IFN)-γ and the proportion of Th17,Tc17,Th1 ,Tc1 cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE). Methods Thirty hospitalized SLE patients were recruited and twenty-two healthy volunteers were recruited as healthy controls. PBMCs were separated from SLE patients and healthy controls and then was cultured in vitro by medium or PMA/Ionomycin or PMA/Ionomycin +dexamethasone for six hours. Four- color immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric assay were used to analyze the percentage of Th17,Tc17,Th1,Tc1 cells in PBMCs. Concentrations of IL-17 and IFN-γ in plasma and the supernatants of PBMCs which were cultured for 24 hours were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The plasma concentrations of IL-17 and IFN-γwere elevated in SLE patients as compared to the controls(P ＜ 0.05). No significant differences were observed between patients and controls for the spontaneous production of IL-17 and IFN-γ or percentage of T subsets expressed by PBMCs. After the stimulation of PMA,compared with the controls,the level of IL-17 was significantly elevated in the supematants of PBMCs and the percentages of Th17 and Tc1 in SLE patients increased significantly(P ＜ 0. 05). However,there showed no significant differences between SLE patients and the controls for the percentages of Th1 and Tc17 cells. DEX could significantly decrease the production of IL-17(P ＜ 0. 01)and the percentages of Th17,Tc1 cells by the active PBMCs(P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusions There is abnormal expression of T subset cells and their cytokines in vivo of SLE patients. DEX can interfere with immunological pathological process in the cytokine network imbalance of SLE patients and shows powerful inhibition of IL - 17. Our results may provide some laboratory evidence for the clinical application of corticosteroids.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of oral cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) on lymphangiogenesis in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).

METHODSCAFs and normal fibroblasts (NFs) were obtained from the tissues of patients with OSCC who did not receive radio-chemotherapy before operation. And the CAFs and NFs were isolated by method of tissue block and identified by immunohistochemical staining. The effects of CAFs (group A) and NFs (group B) to human lymphatic endothelial cells (HLEC) were detected by using a 24-multiwell transwell cell culture chamber. DMEM sugar medium was as blank control group. The number of proliferative, migratory, invasive and tubes of HLEC were counted under inverted phase contrast microscope.

RESULTSThe proliferative number of HLEC of group A for 96, 144, 196 h was significantly higher than that of group B and blank control group, group B higher than blank control group (P<0.01). The migratory and invasive number of HLEC of group A for 96 h was significantly higher than that of group B and blank control group, group B higher than blank control group (P<0.01). The number of tube formation of HLEC of group A for 24 h was significantly higher than that of group B and blank control group, group B higher than blank control group (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONCAFs promote HLEC's proliferation, migration, invasion, tube formation, and these effects are stronger than NFs.

Objective To evaluate the value of haptoglobin (HPT),α1-acid glycoprotein (AAG)and C-reactive protein (CRP) in the differential diagnosis of bacterial and viral infection in children. Methods Serum CRP, AAG and HPT levels were measured in 64 children with bacterial infection and 64 children with viral infection during acute stage. These indicators were also measured in 31 normal control children. The sensitivity ,specificity ,positive and negative predictive values, Youden's index for HPT,AAG and CRP were calculated. These values were compared among three groups. Their early diagnostic value on bacterial infection and virus infection was evaluated. Results (1) These markers were considered positive if HP≥2 g/L,AAG≥2 g/L,CRP≥10 mg/L. (2) The serum CRP [(2.70 ±0.99) g/L vs (1.42 ±0.75) g/L] ,AAG [(0.91 +0.38) g/L vs (0.30+0.08) g/L] and HPT [(6.40 ±0.89) mg/L vs (1.38 +0.80) mg/L]levels were significantly higher in children with bacterial infection compared with those with viral infection during the acute stage (P ＜ 0. 05,P ＜ 0. 01). The serum CRP, AAG and HPT levels were significantly higher in children with bacterial infection compared with normal control children during the acute stage (P ＜ 0. 05);while the levels of these indicators showed no differences between viral infection children and normal control children (P ＞ 0. 05). Conclusion The measurement of serum CRP, AAG and HPT levels has clinical value in the differential diagnosis of bacterial and viral infection in children. Among these indicators, CRP has the highest specificity,positive predictive,negative predictive values and Youden's index.
