AIM: To investigate the difference of cognitive impairment and depression between age-related macular degeneration ( AMD ) group and the control group patients. ·METHODS: A prospective case-control study was performed from November 2014 to August 2016 in the hospital for AMD patients and sex-matched control group. The Mini-Mental State Examination ( MMSE) and the Geriatric Depression Scale ( GDS ) score of each patient were collected for statistical analyzing. ·RESULTS: There were total 84 cases ( 168 eyes ) included in the study. The difference of visual acuity between the two group was statistically significant ( F=8. 953, P=0. 004) by baseline data analyzing. There were no significant differences in MMSE scores between the two groups according to educational status ( P>0. 05 ) , while the prevalence of cognitive impairment in each group was statistically significant (x2 =4. 14, P=0. 042). The difference of GDS scores, prevalence of total and mild depression between two groups were both statistically significant (F=5. 852, P=0. 018; x2=6. 372, P=0. 012; x2 = 5. 674, P = 0. 017 ). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of moderate to severe depression (x2=0. 672, P=0. 412). ·CONCLUSION: AMD patients have a higher prevalence of depression. Although MMSE score differences were not statistically significant in subgroup analysis by educational levels, AMD patients are more likely to have cognitive impairment overall.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the changes of patients with type 2 diabetes in different stages in glucagon (GC) and free fatty acid (FFA) in fasting, OGT and L-Arg experiments, and discusses the role of pancreatic alphabeta cells in diabetes pathogenesis by studying the relations among indexes such as glucagon (GC), free fatty acid (FFA) and blood glucose (BG), insulin, insulin homeostasis model (HOMA) and glucose metabolism hormone secretion curve, in order to provide theoretical basis for the treatment of diabetes.

METHODStudy objects were divided into the T2DM group (45 cases), the IGT group (28 cases) and the NGT group (30 cases) for an OGTT experiment and then an L-Arg experiment on the next day. Under the fasting state, their blood glucose (FBG), insulin (F), glucagon (FGC), free fatty acid (FFA) were detected to calculate HOMA-beta, insulin sensitivity index (ISI) and HOMA-IR of different groups. Meanwhile, efforts were made to calculate different time quantum detected in OGTT and L-Arg experiments and area under the curve AUC(BG), AUC(INS) and AUC(GC).

RESULTObvious overall differences were observed in FFA and FGC of the three groups. FGC of each group was negatively correlated with HOMA-beta and ISI. Among all of the 103 study objects, FGC was positively correlated with FBG and HOMA-IR and negatively correlated with HOMA-beta and ISI, with no correlation with FINS; FFA was positively correlated with FBG, HOMA-IR and negatively correlated with FINS, HOMA-beta, ISI. FGC and FFA were positively correlated in the T2DM group and the IGT group, but with no statistical correlation in the NGT group. The sequence of the three study objects was T2DM > IGR > NGT in AUC(GC) in the OGTT experiment and T2DM > IGR > NGT in in AUC(GC) in the L-Arg experiment, with the significant positive correlation between AUC(GC) and AUC(BG) and significant negative correlation with AUC(INS).

CONCLUSIONGlucagon and free fatty acid of T2DM and IGT patients increased, which was positively correlated with blood glucose and HOMA-IR and negatively correlated with INS, HOMA-beta and ISI. The increase in glucagons of T2DM and IGT patients indicated inappropriate secretion of pancreatic alphabeta cells among patients with type 2 diabetes.

Objective;To explore the relationship among parents' negative punishment,children's self-concept,and children's social behaviors.Methods;Data were collected from questionnaires given to a sample of 612 children from primary and secondary schools and their parents.Results;The structural equation modeling results showed parents' negative punishments could influence children's social behaviors directly and indirectly.In the indirect approach,through the mediating role of children's self-concept,parents' negative punishments could make a negative role on children's pro-social and aggressive behaviors,and a positive role on children's withdrawn behavior.In the direct approach,parents' negative punishments could make a positive effect on children's pro-social,aggressive and withdrawn behavior directly.Conclusion;Children's self-concept plays a mediating role between the relationship of parents' negative punishments and children's social behaviors.

Objective To study the correlation between laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) and voice disorders . Methods One hundred and three patients with reflux -related symptoms were recruited .The patients were evalu-ated with reflux symptom index (RSI) ,reflux finding score (RFS) evaluation and 24-hour dural-probe pH moni-toring .Eighty -nine cases with voice disorders were divided into 5 groups :vocal process granuloma (n=18) chron-ic pharyngolaryngitis (n=19) ,vocal polyps (n=15) ,vocal fold leukoplakia (n=21) and Reinke's edema (n=16) . The other 14 patients without voice disorders were the control subjects .Results According 24-hour dural -probe pH monitoring assessments ,48 .3% of the patients with voice disorders showed LPR positive .The positive rate in the vocal fold leukoplakia group (71 .4% ) and Reinke's edema group (75 .0% ) were significantly higher than the control group (35 .7% ) .RSI and RFS of the patients with Reinke's edema were both significantly higher than the control group(P=0 .020 ,P=0 .009) .RSI of the patients with chronic pharyngolaryngitis were significantly higher than the control group (P=0 .019) .The acid reflux episodes ,acid reflux time which except in the supine position of the vocal fold leukoplakia group were significantly higher than the control group .The acid reflux episodes ,acid ex-posure and acid reflux time which all except in the supine position of the Reinke's edema group were significantly higher than the control group .Conclusion The correlations between Reinke's edema ,vocal fold leukoplakia and LPR were stronger .In these two groups ,the acid reflux episodes were higher and acid reflux times were longer .

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinicl bacteria distribution and the drug resistance.METHODS The biochemical and serologic tests were used to detect the susceptibility of bacterium to antimicrobials.RESULTS The positive rate was 44.87%,bacteria distributed mainly in sputum,urine and secretion.Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus epidermidis,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter often appeared.The drug resistance rate of MRSA and MRCNS was higher than MSSA and MSCNS's.The drug sensitive rate of Enterococcus faecium was less than E faecalis's.Bacteria of Enterobacteriaceae were sensitive to the drug of imipenem.The test rate for E.coli and K.pneumoniae which released ESBLs was 23.9% and 25.4%,respectively.P.aeruginosa possessed high resistance to all drugs.CONCLUSIONS The rate of Gram-positive cocci in all specimen is rising,the drug resistance is rather related with the broad use of antimicrobials.

Objective To determine the median effective dose ( ED50 ) of 0?5% ropivacaine for ul?trasound?guided adductor canal saphenous nerve block. Methods Twenty?three patients of both sexes, aged 18-45 yr, weighing 50-85 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective arthroscopic meniscectomy, received an ultrasound?guided adductor canal saphenous nerve block. After successful location, 0?5% ropivacaine was injected. The sensory block of the area in?nervated by the saphenous nerve was assessed by pin?prick test. The dose of ropivacaine was determined by up?and?down technique. The initial dose of ropivacaine was set at 18 ml. Each time the dose increased∕de?creased in the next patient according to whether or not the sensory block of the area innervated by the saphe?nous nerve was complete, and the ratio between the two successive doses was 1 ∶ 1?2. The ED50 and 95%confidence interval of 0?5% ropivacaine for adductor canal saphenous nerve block were calculated by probit analysis. Results The ED50 (95% confidence interval) of 0?5% ropivacaine for ultrasound?guided adduc?tor canal saphenous nerve block was 10?7 ( 8?8-12?2) ml. Conclusion The ED50 of 0?5% ropivacaine for ultrasound?guided adductor canal saphenous nerve block is 10?7 ml.

Objective In order to lay the foundation for establishment of a clean grade Meriones meridianus popu-lation, and provide reference for the formulation of Meriones meridianus parasite detection standard.Methods A survey of parasite infection in Meriones meridianus was carried out, and three kinds of antiparasitic drugs, tetramethrin/per-methrin, praziquantel, and tinidazole were used in high-, medium-and low-doses for eradication of the target parasites. Results Three types of parasites were detected among the animals.The infection rate of surface parasite Myobia musculi was 82.1%(23/28), that of intestinal parasite Hymenolepis nana was 78.1% (25/32) and Tritrichomonas muris was 90.6%(29/32).Significant results of parasite eradication were achieved with the antiparasitic drugs.Medicated bath u-sing 1%tetramethrin/permethrin for 30 s every 4 days for 5 times and 1.5%tetramethrin/permethrin for 30 s every 4 days for 3 times completely eradicated the surface Myobia musculi infection.Praziquantel in a dose of 31 mg/kg by daily gastric gavage for consecutive 7 days was the optimal dosage to completely eradicate the intestinal Hymenolepis nana.Tinidazole in a dose of 42 mg/kg administered by gastric gavage daily for consecutive 7 days was the optimal dosage for eradication of in-testinal Tritrichomonas muris infection.Conclusions Three types of parasites are detected in Meriones meridianus in our laboratory, i.e.surface infection with Myobia musculi, and intestinal infection with Tritrichomonas muris and Hymenolepis nana.Tetramethrin/permethrin, praziquantel and tinidazole can be used to effectively eradicate these three types of para-sites, respectively.
