BACKGROUND:To control blood glucose, blood pressure, blood lipids and inhibit the rennin-angiotensin system is the main idea focused on the treatment of diabetic nephropathy, but the curative effect is unsatisfactory. Hemodialysis and kidney transplantation are suitable for serious cases, however, which is restricted because of the limited source of kidneys and high cost. Regenerative medicine research based on stem cells brings a new hope for treatment of diabetic nephropathy. OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively analyze the mechanism underlying different sources of stem cells for treatment of diabetic nephropathy and the clinical implications. METHODS:Papers addressing stem cells for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy were retrieved by computer in CNKI database and PubMed database from January 2005 to August 2013 with the key words“embryonic stem cells, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, diabetic nephropathyin Chinese and English. Papers published recently or in journals with high impact factor were selected. A total of 60 papers were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Embryonic stem cells, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells have the potential to differentiate into renal histiocytes. A large numbers of experimental studies have shown that stem cells transplantation has a positive effect on recovery of injured kidney. Stem celltransplantation can provide a novel therapy for diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To observe the clinical effects of the children with svstemic inflammatorv re- active syndrome(SIRS)receiving micro-dose heparin at early stage of the diseases.Methods The 53 cas- es diagnosed as SIRS were included in the randomized control trial.They were divided into two groups,26 cases in control group and 27 cases in therapeutic group.The children in control group received therapy for their primary diseases and other routine managements for SIRS.The children in therapeutic group received both above therapy and micro-dose heparin(5-10 U/kg,1 fime/6hours)via subcutaneous injection at earlv stages of diseases for 3 days.Results There were improvements in both control and therapeutic group, platelets count increased,C-reactive protein decreased (P＜0.01),there were significant diffemnce in platelets and C-reactive protein between two groups,the time of platelets recovery in therapeutic group [(28±9)h]Was less than that in control group[(55±14)h](P＜0.01).In therapeutic group,the dumtion of SIRS was shortened (P＜0.05),mortality and the incidence of multiple organ dysfunction svndrome (MODS)and disseminated intravascular eoagultion(DIC)were decreased significantly(P＜0.05).Con- clusion Early micro-dose heparin in SIRS can shorten its duration and decrease the mortality and the inci- dence of MODS in the children with SIRS.

Objective: To assess the diagnosis value of applying integrated visual and auditory continuous performance task(IVA-CPT) and EEG biofeedback on children with attention-deficit- hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), and provide information for assisting diagnosis of ADHD. Methods: 113 children with ADHD were tested with IVA-CPT and EEG biofeedback. The sensitivity, specificity, misdiagnosis rate and missed diagnosis rate of these two methods were assessed according to the criteria of DSM-Ⅳ. Results: The sensitivity of IVA-CPT for the diagnosis of children with ADHD was 92.54, the specificity was 76.09%, misdiagnosis rate was 23.911% and missed diagnosis rate was 7.46%. And the sensitivity of EEG biofeedback for the diagnosis of children with ADHD was 83.58%, the specificity was 82.61%, misdiagnosis rate was 17.38 and missed diagnosis rate was 16.42%. Conclusion: Relatively, for diagnosis of children with ADHD, sensitivity is higher and missed diagnosis rate is lower, specificity of EEG biofeedback is higher and misdiagnosis rate is lower .

Objective To investigate wheter epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) could prevent the information of abrant crypt loci (ACF) induced by isoquinoline (IQ)and its possible mechanisms. Methods Sixty male BALB/cA nude immunological deficit mice were divided into five groups. Except control group, the other four groups were received IQ to induce ACF. The rats in low, medium and high dose groups were received 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg of EGCG,respectively. The mice were sacrificed six weeks later. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and 0.2% methylene blue staining were used to observe the routine histology and ACF, respectively. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect Nrf2 protein level and RT-PCR was used to detect Nrf2 and UGT1A10 mRNA levels in colon tissue. Results The body weights of model group decreased significantly compared to high-dose group (21.70±0.13 vs. 24.37±0.07, P<0.01). Compared to model group, the degree of atypical hyperplasia and even canceration of colon mucus and the number of total ACF and total AC in high-dose group were decreased significantly (18.00±7.51 vs. 64.20±45.18, P<0.05;63.90±18.58 vs. 168. 80±35.34, P<0.01). The protein level of Nrf2 increased (0.3114±0.0037 vs. 0.1660±0.0021, P<0.01). The mRNA levels of Nrf2 and UGT1A10 in high-dose group was increased (both P value<0.01). Conclusions EGCG has protective effect on IQ induced preneoplastic lesions through reducing the number of ACF. This effect may be caused partly through the signal pathway Nrf2-UGT1A10.

Purpose To investigate the clinical and pathological features of inflammatory fibroid polyps ( IFPs) and to discuss its diag-nosis, differential diagnosis and treatment. Methods Clinicopathological data of 14 cases of IFPs were collected and analyzed retro-spectively. Results Most of the 14 cases were found to have submucosal polyps of the digestive tract protruding growing into the cavi-ty. Perivascular onion skinning which formed by spindle fibrocytes around vascular proliferation and eosinophilic inflammatory infiltrates were present as the characteristic feature of lesions. ABC results demonstrated that the lesions showed fibroblastic, myofibroblastic and dendritic cell signs. Conclusions IFPs are rare, benign tumors that can arise throughout the digestive tract, with unique histological changes in pathology. Surgical excision or endoscopic removal is the main treatment.

Objective: To study the general characteristics of autistic children. Methods: The data of 1176 autistic children who were diagnosed in the Institute of Mental Health, Beijing Medical University was gathered, descriptive statistics were done with SPSS software. Results: As many as 35.10% of the autistic children are identified by their parents having problems in behavior until they were 3 years old. The average age of consulting was 60.61?26.8 months. Only 21.43% children were brought to child psychiatrists under the age of 3. They were brought to hospital 35.03?27.86 months after being discovered the symptoms.Conclusion:Health education for child autism should be strengthened so that it can be early identified.

Totally, 125 elderly inpatients with aspiration pneumonia (AP) were enrolled from departments of respiratory medicine and neurology at Zhongnan Hospital, Wuhan during June 2005 to October 2009 for analysis. Results showed that listlessness was manifested in 70 cases (56%), primary neurological illness in 80 cases (64%), 57 of them (46%) complicated with respiratory failure and 26 died with case-fatality of 21%. Main pathogen for them was Gram-negative bacillus, accounting for 57% of the total. Two kinds or more of antibiotics had ever been administered in 98 cases (78%), with an average length of antibiotics use for 28 days, ranging from one day to 128 days. Nasal feeding was instituted for those with choking over their feeding and coughing, and their inspired feeding was aspirated from the trachea or bronchi and lavished with bronchoscopy, with 38 cases by tracheal intubation, 26 by tracheotomy and 42 with artificial ventilation. Their average duration of hospital stay spanned 28 days with an average cost of 25 000 RMB yuan per capita, significantly higher than that for those with common pneumonia. In conclusion, clinical features of these elderly patients with AP were not so typical, most of them manifest severe, with lots of medical cost and bad prognosis.

Prosthesis for femoral head surface replacement was designed. Between January 2002 and December 2005,28 patients underwent femoral head surface replacement in Anyang People's Hospital. The diameter of the normal femoral head was determined by CT,and the prosthesis was selected according to the measured value ±1 mm. With the muscle gap approach,the center of the femoral head was determined according to the measured distance between the femoral head center and the culminated point of the round ligament fossa based on the mark of the culminated point of the round ligament pit. Additionally,the diameter of the femoral head was measured again to ensure the precise match of the prosthesis and acetabulum. X-ray films at 24-48 months show no loosening or dislocation of the prosthesis,which was well matched with acetabulum. Furthermore,the joint space did not remarkably change. The mean score was 63 before operation and 91.5 after operation respectively according to Harris sore. The successful rate is 92.86% (excellent in 23cases,good in 3,and improved in 2). The results show that femoral head surface replacement is an effective method for young patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head at the stage of ARCO HI.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of cloth in turning patients over. Meth-ods 80 emergent patients of long-term bedridden without automtic movement and with spinal cord injury and paraplegia were divided into the observation group and the control group with 40 cases in each group. The ob-servation group used cloth for turning over, while the control group used the traditional free hand turning over method, the advantages and disadvantages of the two groups were compared. Results From the aspects of patients' subjective comfort, skin integrity, the labor intensity of nurses, the observation group was better than the control group. Conclusions Turning patients over with cloth overcomes the pushing, pulling, drnging and other defects of traditional flee-hand method, keep patients feel comfortable and skin integrity and non-dam-aged, nurses feel easy because of less labor and time.

Objective To study the prevalence and clinical features of auras in epilepsy patients,and to evaluate the diagnosis criteria of epileptic auras.Methods All 1028 patients with epilepsy who were treated in the First Hospital of PekiIIg University from January 2007 to January 2008 were enrolled in this retrospective study.Seizure types were diagnosed in accordance with the seizure classification scheme proposed by the International League Against Epilepsy(1981).We studied the incidence rate,clinical features and presentations of electroencephalogram(EEG)and neuroimaging of epileptic auras.Student ttest was used to assess the statistic difference of the onset age of partial seizure in patients with and without auras.The chi-squaretestWas usedto statistically analyze the EEGand neuroimaging results in patients with partial seizure and the occurrence percentages of abdominal aura in lateral temporal lobe epilepsy(LTLE)and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy(MTLE).Results Four hundred and eighty-four patients(66.8 % of 725 patients)with partial seizures reported epileptic auras.None of the 303 patients with generalized seizures reported auras.Sixty-four patients experienced two or more types of auras.Fourteen patients had aura status. Of all enrolled patients,53.2 % and 21.1 % showed abnormal EEG and neuroimaging,respectively.Of 484 partial epileptic patients with auras,59.1 % and 26.0 % presented abnormal EEG and neuroimagings,respectively.The percentage of abdomen aura in patients with MTLE was significantly higher than those with LTLE(x2=170.877,P<0.01).Condusion Analysis of auras may help in classifying and localizing epilepsy and also in planning treatment.
