BACKGROUND: Coffee is commonly consumed among young people in China. However, consumers are rarely aware of physicaly adverse effects as a result of excessive consumption of caffeine. DATA SOURCES: A literature search using multiple databases was performed for articles published with concentration on meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and randomized controlled trials. RESULTS: Excess coffee consumption is also a risk of primary cardiac arrest especially in young people. Treatment modalities include activated charcoals, beta-blockers, vasopressin and hemodialysis when necessary. CONCLUSION: Coffee consumers should be advised not to routinely take more than moderate coffee.

Objective To evaluate the application of pooling HIV nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT) among men who had sex with men (MSM) population, and to investigate suitable HIV screening strategy and the feasibility of calculation of HIV incidence using pooling NAAT among MSM population in China.Methods Four thousand eight hundred and fifty-six samples were collected from MSM population from April 2008 to September 2009 among with 4 156 were in Heilongjiang province and 700 were in Beijing in China. After standard testing with an HIV ELISA and WB confirmation testing, HIV antibody-negative samples were pooled and screened for HIV using NAAT.A three-stage pooling strategy was adopted.The HIV positive rate estimated by the four HIV screening strategies was calculated.In addition, 4 156 HIV positive specimens from Heilongjiang province were screened with the BED capture enzyme immunoassay (BED-CEIA).The HIV-1 incidences were estimated by BED-CEIA assay and pooling NAAT individually.ResultsOne hundred and forty-three of 4 856 subjects were HIV infected.130 were 3rd and 4th generation ELISA positive; 13 were antibody-negative but acutely HIV infected.According to the evaluation of four HIV screening strategies, routine HIV screening test together with pooling NAAT was more effective than other strategies for screening out window period generation ELISA+WB+pooling NAAT' were 2.68%(95% confidence interval CI=2.22%-3.14%), 2.82%(95%CI=2.35%-3.29%), 2.94%(95%CI=2.46%-3.42%) and 2.94%(95%CI=2.46%-3.42%), respectively.The differences were not significant (χ2=0.854 3, P=0.836 4).Of the 88 HIV positive samples from Heilongjiang province, 44 participants were tested as recent HIV infections by BED-CEIA assay. The estimated HIV-1 incidence was 2.36% (95%CI=1.63%-3.08%) and 2.92% (95%CI=1.01%-4.83%) based on BED-CEIA assay and pooling NAAT,respectively.Conclusions Pooling NAAT is a effective screening test in HIV negative population to detect window period infection among MSM population in China.

Objective To determine the incidence and risk factors of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in preterm infants.Methods Fundus examinations were performed by RetCam Ⅱ ophthalmoscopy on 2185 premature infants (birth weight ≤ 2000 g or gestational age≤34 weeks)admitted into the neonatal intensive care unit of Beijing Bayi Children's Hospital from January 1st 2009 to December 31st 2010.According to the results,all infants were divided into ROP group and nonRO P group.Two-sample t test and Logistic regression analysis were used to investigate the risk factors of ROP.Results Among 2185 premature infants,287 (13.1 %) cases were diagnosed with RO P.According to International Classification of RO P,34 cases (11.9 %) were in zone Ⅰ,147 cases (51.2%) in zone Ⅱ,and 106 cases(36.9%) in zone Ⅲ.And there were 117 cases (40.8%) with stage 1 lesion,142 cases (49.5%) with stage 2 lesion,28 cases (9.7%) with stage 3 lesion,and no stage 4 or 5 lesion was identified.Thirty-six cases (12.5 %) were accompanied by additional diseases.Logistic analysis showed that small gestational age (OR=0.859,95%CI:0.770-0.958,P=0.006),low birth weight (OR=0.729,95%CI:0.6340.838,P=0.000),long duration of oxygen supplement (OR=2.221,95%CI:1.904-2.592,P=0.000),assistant ventilation (OR=3.104,95%CI:2.0964.956,P=0.000),apnea (OR=1.767,95%CI:1.103 2.831,P=0.018) and=anemia (OR=2.242,95%CI:1.641-3.604,P=0.000) were independent risk factors of ROP.Conclusions The incidence of ROP in premature infants is high.Small gestational age and low birth weight,long duration of oxygen supplement,assistant ventilation,apnea and anemia are risk factors of ROP.Preventive measures should be taken against these factors.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features of the adult rhabdomyoma (A-RM) in the oral and maxillofacial region.Methods Three cases of A-RM in the oral and maxillofacial region were analyzed for the clinical symptoms,imaging data,pathological features,differential diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis with the literatures review.Results The age arranged from 4 yea~ to 83 years in three A-RM cases.Two cases were male and one case was female.Two cases occurred in the mouth floor and one case in the tongue.Three A-RM cases presented as slowly growing,painless masses clinically.The masses were lobular,red-brown nodules with clear boundary.Histologically,they consisted of densely packed,large,round and polygonal cells with abundant granular eosinophilic cytoplasm.Cross striations and vacuoles were seen in the cytoplasm.Tumor cells expressed desmin and myoglobin,partially expressed SMA,MyoD1 and S-100 protein.PAS was also positive among tumor cells and could be digested by the diastasum diastace.Conclusion Histological examination is the main diagnostic basis for A-RM.For accurate diagnosis,cross striations and immunohistochemistry for myogenic proteins in cytoplasm are of pivotal importance.Radical resection is the main treatment with generally promising prognosis.
