Objective To discuss the factors that affect the examination of urine formed elements by IQ200 automated uri-nalysis analyzer causing false positive and look for the solution methods. Methods 2,319 urine samples were tested by IQ200 automated urinalysis analyzer and microscopy. The results were contrasted and the false positive reasons were ana-lyzed. Results When using IQ200 automated urinalysis analyzer,the false positive rate of red cell is 14.7%. Crystals,bac-teria,yeast like fungus sometimes are regarded as red cell by analyzer. The false positive rate of white cell is 15.75%. Small round cells,lots of bacterium can cause false positive; the false positive rate of cast is 38.58 % and viscose rayon is main agent. Conclusion Many factors can affect the examination in IQ200 automated urinalysis analyzer and cause false positive,so IQ200 can only be used for scanning,which is very important to observe sediments by microscopic examination when pathologic ingredients in urine are increased and at the same time all above interferences are positive and manifold.

Objective To investigate the effects of neurotrophics and rehabilitation on the neural function recovery after the hypoxic-ischemic brain injury in rats. Methods Model rats of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury were given monosialotetrahexosylganglioside sodium(GM1, n=8), mouse nerve growth factor (NGF, n=8), both drugs (n=8), rehabilitation (n=8), both drugs+rehabilitation (n=8) and control (nointervention, n=8). The other 7 rats was as sham group. They were assessed with hanging and inclined plane test when 30 days old. ResultsIn the factorial design, main effect of GM1 was significant (P<0.05) but NGF (P>0.05) in hanging test; while both were significant in inclinedplane test. The interaction was not significant (P>0.05) in both tests. The main effects of drugs and rehabilitation were significant (P<0.05), as well as the interaction (P<0.05) in both tests. Conclusion GM1 may significantly improve muscle strength, voluntary movement,balance and coordination functions, and NGF may improve the balance and coordination functions. No interaction is found when combinedwith the two therapies. Rehabilitation may significantly improve muscle strength, voluntary movement, coordination and balance, and synergyeffects can be gained when combined with the drugs.

Objective To investigate the symptom characteristis as well as the clinical assessment methods of dysphagia and oral motor function in children with cerebral palsy(CP).Methods A total of 116 children with CP,aged 18 months to 96 months(66 boys and 50 girls),treated in Qingdao Rehabilitation Center for Disabled Children from June 2009 to September 2010,were included in the study.Diagnosis and subtype of CP were determined by neuropaediatrician,the dysphagia disorders survey(DDS)as well as oral motor assessment were conducted by the speech therapists.Results Of the 116 cases,22.4％ of the cases were with mild dysphagia and 34.5％ with moderate to severe dysphagia,resulting in a prevalence of dysphagia of 56.9％.The main problems of these cases occurred during oral phase and pharyngeal phase,including inadequate feeding skills(involving sucking,biting,chewing or/and swallowing),coughing,vomiting and choking during feeding,cry/overextension of neck and head during feeding,drooling,hypertonic tongue and inadequate tongue lateralization.The severe dysphagia was encountered frequently in children with spastic quadriplegic,dyskinetic or mixed type CP children.Of the 116 cases,90 cases(77.59％)were with oral motor dysfunction(including all spastic quadriplegic,dyskinetic or mixed type children).The oral motor scores of CP children were significantly lower than those of the controls(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Oral phase dysphagia and oral motor disorder might be considered as the common clinical problems among the patients with CP,and could be assessed by using DDS combined with oral motor assessment,but for dysphagia during pharyngeal or esophagus phase,the videofluoroscopic modified barium swallow should be used for further evaluation.

In recent years,targeted drug delivery system as one of the hottest areas in pharmaceutical research has received more and more attention.However,the targeted anti-tumor drug delivery system has many shortcomings including low targeted efficiency which limit its clinical application.Elevating tumor targeting efficiency has become the bottleneck of nano-drug development and clinical application.Therefore,it is urgent to design and develop novel targeted drug delivery vehicle.Recent studies showed that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have characters of tumor tropism and migration,which make them as ideal targeted anti-tumor drug delivery carriers for the treatment of solid and metastatic tumors.This paper reviews the progress in using MSCs as targeted anti-tumor drug delivery carrier,recapitulates the problems and challenges of the system,and proposes a solution for these problems.

ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristics of dysphagia in children with cerebral palsy and explore the relation with the gross motor function classification.MethodsThe children with cerebral palsy in our rehabilitation center from June 2009 to June 2010 were assessed by Dysphagia Disorders Survey(DDS), Oral Motor Assessment and Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) to explore the relationship between the dysphagia disorders and different gross motor levels.ResultsOf all 105 children with cerebral palsy, 21.9% were mild dysphagia, and 34.3% were moderate to severe dysphagia, resulting in a prevalence of dysphagia of 56.2%. DDS and oral motor scores were changed by GMFCS levels. The correlation coefficient were 0.767 and -0.504 between DDS, oral motor scores and GMFCS, 0.55 and 0.27 between dysphagia, oral motor disorder and the gross motor functions, respectively(P<0.01).ConclusionDysphagia was positively related to severity of motor impairment. Children in GMFCS levels Ⅳ～Ⅴ almost with problems in the pharyngeal and esophageal phases, apparently on the DDS, should be referred for appropriate clinical evaluation of swallowing function.

Objectives To evaluate the influence of cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) to the endothelial function and lipid oxidative status of the Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) patients. Methods Thirty-five coronary patients (female 5 cases, male 30 cases, mean age 59.5±8. 6 years) who needed CABG operation therapy were included. The control group consisted of 20 health volunteers (female 5 cases, male 15 cases, mean age 49. 5 ± 7.3 years).Blood samples were taken at preoperative, 3 and 7 days postoperative. Serum von Willebrand factor (vWF) level, one of the endothelial dysfunction markers,and oxidized low density lipid (OxLDL) level, one of the lipid oxidization status markers were detected with ELISA kits. Results The levels of vWF and OxLDL in CABG patients' serum were elevated significantly compared with those of control group ( 139.60% ± 34. 39% vs 82. 79% ±13. 89% and 63. 7 ±18. 9U/ml vs 25.4± 15.2U/ml respectively). Three and 7 days after CABG significant increases in the vWF level (194. 30% ±37. 74%; 181.07% ±31.05%vs 139.60% ±34.39% at baseline, P＜0. 0001, respectively) and OxLDL level (79. 3±26. 7U/ml; 72.4±23.1U/ml vs 63.7±18. 9U/ml at baseline, P＜0. 01, respectively) were detected. Conclusion Compared with normal people, the endothelial system of CABG patients is impaired, and their lipids are in a more oxidative status. CABG procedure with CPB can further deteriorate the conditions, which may imply that the patients are predisposed to acute coronary accident shortly are the procedure.
