Objective To compare the cognitive function of children with behavior problems and normal children. Methods 87 children with behavior problems were choosed as study group,according to Rutter' s Children Behaviour Qestionnaire. And 87 normal children were choosed randomly as normal control. Chinese Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC) ,Clinical Memory Scale (CMS) ,Number Cancellation Test (NCT) and the Forth Exceptional Test (FET) were adopted to assess the cognitive function of children in two groups. Results Compared with normal control, arithmetic scale ( ( 10.40 ± 3.02 ) vs ( 12. 13 ± 3.26 ) ), verbal IQ ( ( 121.55 ±12.54) vs ( 129.40 ± 13.98) ), object assembly scale ( ( 9.98 ± 2.79 ) vs ( 11.70 ± 2.78 ) ), performance IQ((97.40±10.84) vs ( 103.93 ±14.22)),full IQ ((112.28±11.14) vs (119.03 ± 12.57)),verbal comprehension IQ ( ( 110.48 ± 11.23 ) vs ( 115.80 ± 12.31 ) ), memory/concentration IQ ( ( 101.25 ± 11.66 ) vs ( 109.40 ± 15.45 ) ),the net scale ( (67.05 ± 33.85 ) vs ( 88.72 ± 22.51 ) ) and error rate( ( 32.27 ± 35.77 ) %vs ( 15.41 ± 10.35 ) % ) were lower in children with behavior problems ( all P < 0.05 ). In study group, the total scale of Rutter' s Children Behaviour Qestionnaire was negatively correlated with memory/concentration IQ, and with net scale(r = - 0. 335, - 0. 367, P < 0.05 );but it was positively correlated with error rate (r = 0. 333, P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Cognitive defects may exist in children with behavior problems.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of suspended moxibustion plus Chinese medication in treating icteric hepatitis. Method Ninety-two patients with icteric hepatitis were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 46 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by suspended moxibustion plus oral administration of Chinese medication for supplementing yang, tonifying spleen, expelling dampness, and activating blood circulation;the control group was intervened only by the same Chinese medication. The symptom and sign score, and liver function items including TBil and ALT were observed, and the clinical efficacy was compared. Result The symptom and sign scores were significantly changed in both groups after intervention (P<0.05). After intervention, there was a significant difference in comparing the symptom and sign score between the two groups (P<0.05). The TBil and ALT levels were significantly changed after intervention in both groups (P<0.05). The recovery rate and total effective rate were respectively 87.0%and 95.7%in the treatment group versus 76.1%and 82.6%in the control group, and the inter-group differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Suspended moxibustion plus Chinese medication is an effective method in treating icteric hepatitis.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of skin needling plus heat-sensitive moxibustion in treating chronic facial paralysis. Methods:Sixty patients with chronic facial paralysis were divided into an observation group and an acupuncture group by using the random number table, 30 in each group. Patients in the observation group were given skin needling plus heat-sensitive moxibustion; while patients in the acupuncture group were given conventional acupuncture. Results:Three treatment courses later, the total effective rate was 93.3% in the observation group versus 86.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).

Method Eighty-nine patients with acute gouty arthritis were randomized into a treatment group of 45 cases and a control group of 44 cases. The treatment group was intervened by fire acupuncture plus orally taking herbal medicine, while the control group was by oral administration of Diclofenac sodium and Allopurinol. The average pain score was observed before and after intervention, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result The total effective rate was 95.6% in the treatment group versus 81.8% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The average pain score was significantly changed in both groups after intervention (P<0.01). After treatment, there was a significant difference in comparing the average pain score between the two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Fire acupuncture plus herbal medicine is an effective approach in treating acute gouty arthritis.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathologic features of intraspinal ganglioneuroma.Meth-ods:We collected 1 2 cases of diagnosed ganlioneuroma arising from the spine and one case of ganlioneuro-ma arising from mediastinum as the control.Clinical and radiographic features were reviewed.The pathologi-cal parameters of these cases were analyzed with routine and immunohistochemical stainings of neural fiber (NF),S-100 protein(S-100),myelin based protein(MBP),peripheral myelin protein 22(PMP22),smooth mus-cle actin(SMA),glial fibrilary acidic protein(GFAP)and Ki-67.Results:The disease was likely to occur in pa-tients aged 30-40 years old and more common in female.These cases were all intral cervical spinal tumors and presented with radicular neuralgia and mass effects of cervical spinal cord compression.Ganglioneuro-mas which occasionally contained normal spindle shaped cells were composed of mature or degenarative ganglion cells and neoplastic Schwannian stroma.Ganglion cells appeared positive for NF.Schwannian stro-ma as well as satellite cells around ganglion showed immunoreactivity for S-100.more intense than neurofi-bro-stroma.Mature spindle shaped cells showed immumoreactivity for MBP.Ki-67 labeling indices were usual-ly 0-1%while in Schwannian stroma areas were 3%.No blood vessel endothelium proliferation was ob-served.Conclusion:Intraspinal ganglioneuromas are rare benign tumors(WHO grand I),causing radicular neuralgia.It is jmportant to distinguish ganglioneuroma with spinal root encircled from Schwannoma or neuro-fibroma in the same anatomic location.The optimal treatment is surgical total resection.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of half-Fourier single-shot TSE MR cholangiopancreatography (HASTE-MRCP) of 0.5 T MR scanner, and to assess its imaging advantage and clinical value by comparing with 3D-TSE-MRCP MIP. Methods All 95 patients were examined by HASTE-MRCP and 3D-TSE-MRCP with respiratory-triggering (Philips 0.5 T T5-NT). The results, including anatomies and diseases, were evaluated after operation. Results By HASTE-MRCP, common bile ducts, 1-3 branches of hepatic ducts, gallbladder, and pancreatic ducts were demonstrated in 100.0%, 94.7%, 74.1%, and 63.2% of the cases. Stones, malignant diseases, and postoperative stenosis were revealed in 100.0% of the cases. Compared with 3D-TSE-MRCP, the demonstrating rates of 4-5 hepatic ducts,neck of the gallbladders,and calculi,especially mud calculi, were higher in HASTE-MRCP, and there was significant difference between the two ways. Stones displayed as low signal in the bile ducts. Block obstruction and mass contour were revealed in malignant diseases. Conclusion Comparing with 3D TSE-MRCP, HASTE-MRCP was better and faster, especially in serious patients or in cases with small and mud calculus.
