BACKGROUND: Perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE) is the primary cause of neonatal brain injury, which retards the mental development in affected infants.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of early intervention on mental and psychological development in infants with HIE, study the time-effect relation of the early intervention, and to find an optimal time for intervention.DESIGN: A time series of following-up and a non-randomized concurrent controlled investigation.SETTING: Xiangya Hospital and Xiangya School of Medicine Affiliated to Central South University.PARTICIPANTS: From February 1999 to May 2001, in the Pediatric Department of Xiangya Hospital Affiliated to the Central South University, the inpatient and outpatient infants with HIE were selected. There were 32 inpatients in the intervention group, 10 with moderate HIE and 22 with severe HIE. There were 36 outpatients in the control group, 10 with moderate HIE and 26 with severe HIE. Comparison was performed between these two groups.METHODS: BRS and the Infant and Child Mental Development Scales,made by The Institute of Psychology of The Chinese Academy of Science and The China National Children' s Center(CNCC), were adopted in the assessment between the two groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Mental Development Index(MDI) and Psychomotor Development Index(PDI) scores of the two groups were compared.were significantly higher in the intervention group(90.50 ± 11.12/90. 34±12.49,94.06±14.96/92.03±13.07,90.78±7.46/91.38 ± 13.87)than those in the control group(62.28±7.44/62.67±6.06, 59.11following-up results showed that one patient in the intervention group had a MDI score at the critical threshold value, and two patients had PDI scores at the critical threshold value. For all the other patients in this group, the MDI/PDI scores of them were above the moderate range. In contrast, all the 36 infants in control group had developed mental deficiencies at that time.CONCLUSION: A quantifiable effect of the intervention can be observed in patients at 3 months of life. This indicates that an early intervention is essential for improving the mental development in infants with HIE.

Objective To investigate the relationship between molecular subtypes of breast cancer and postoperative loco-regional recurrence (LR) in early breast cancer patients with 1-3 positive axillary lymph nodes (pN1) and to improve the individualized indications for post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT)in these patients.Methods A total of 547 patients with pT1-2 N1M0 breast cancer,who received mastectomy between December 1998 and December 2009 in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center,were retrospectively analyzed.None of them received adjuvant radiotherapy after mastectomy.The patients were divided into luminal A group,luminal B group,HER-2-overexpressing group,and triple-negative group according to the molecular subtypes of breast cancer determined by immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization.The patients in different groups were compared in terms of LR rate (LRR) and LR-free survival (LRFS),and the risk factors for LR were analyzed in combination with clinical and pathological features.The Kaplan-Meier method was adopted to calculate LRR and LRFS;the Logrank test was used for survival difference analysis and univariate prognostic analysis.The Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate prognostic analysis.Results The luminal A group,luminal B group,HER-2-overexpressing group,and triple-negative group accounted for 30.0%,48.6%,9.3%,and 12.1%,respectively,of all the patients.The follow-up rate was 97.1% ;334 patients were followed up for at least 5 years,and 127 were followed up for at least 10 years.Univariate analysis showed that,compared with the luminal A group,the HER-2-overexpressing group and triple-negative group had significantly higher 5-year LRRs (19.0% vs 5.3%,x2 =4.28,P =0.026; 14.9% vs 5.3%,x2 =5.02,P =0.015) and significantly lower LRFSs (73.5% vs 91.1%,x2=7.27,P=0.005;80.6% vs 91.1%,x2=4.77,P=0.021).Multivariate analysis revealed that HER-2 overexpression,triple-negative phenotype,age of ≤ 35 years,and stage pT2 were poor prognostic factors for survival (LRR and LRFS) (x2 =2.29,2.08,18.22,and 6.86,P =0.020,0.016,0.001,and 0.005;x2 =1.90,1.41,8.58,and 3.94,P=0.006,0.025,0.002,and 0.039).The 10-year LRRs of patients with 0,1,and ≥2 of the above risk factors were 4.3%,14.1%,and 31.9%,respectively (x2 =28.03,P =0.000).Conclusions Molecular subtyping is helpful for individualized evaluation of LR risk in early breast cancer patients with 1-3 positive axillary lymph nodes (pN1).PMRT should be recommended for the patients with 2 or more risk factors for LR.

Objective To explore the effect of arsenic trioxide maintenance therapy on the long-term recur-rence rate in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia ( APL ) . Methods From December 2011 to December 2013,60 patients with APL in the First People's Hospital of Huzhou were selected and divided into control group and observation group according to random number table, with 30 cases in each group. All patients received the same induction therapy and consolidation therapy. During the maintenance treatment period, all - trans retinoic acid ( ATRA) was given to the control group,and arsenic trioxide was used in the observation group. The serum levels and incidence of adverse reactions in the two groups were detected and compared after two cycles of the maintenance therapy. Three years of follow - up was conducted after treatment to record and compare the recurrence rate and survival rate in the two groups. Results The levels of TC and TG after 1 and 2 cycles of treatment were higher than those before treatment in both two groups(all P<0. 05),but the levels of lipid indicators in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (t=2. 044,2. 175,all P<0. 05). The incidence rates of retinoic acid syndrome,elevated intracranial pressure and other adverse reactions in the observation group during the treatment were lower than those in the control group(6. 67% vs. 26. 67%,6. 67% vs. 30. 00%,6. 67% vs. 26. 67%),and the differences were statistically significant(χ2 =0. 043,0. 023,0. 043,all P<0. 05). The survival rates after 2 and 3 years of treatment in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(90. 00% vs. 66. 67%,83. 33% vs. 60. 00%),and the differences were statistically significant(χ2 =4. 812,4. 812,all P<0. 05). The recurrence rate after 3 years of treatment in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(10. 00% vs. 33. 33%),and the difference was statistically significant(χ2 =4. 812,P <0. 05). Conclusion For patients with APL, the application of arsenic trioxide in the maintenance therapy can produce no significant effect on their lipid metabolism, and at a certain extent, can help reduce the incidence of adverse reactions and recurrence rate,and improve the survival rate.

Objective To evaluate the effects of ulinastatin postconditioning and combination of ulinastatin preconditioning and postconditioning on myocardial apoptosis in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Eighty New York Heart Association (NYHA) class Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients of both sexes,aged 21-59 years,scheduled for cardiac valve replacement with CPB,were randomly divided into four groups (n =20 each):normal saline control group (group C),ulinastatin preconditioning group (group U1),ulinastatin postconditioning group (group U2) and ulinastatin preconditioning plus postconditioning group (group U3).In group U1,uinastatin 20000 U/kg was infused via the central vein at 500-1000 U·kg-1 · min-1 after endotracheal intubation until 10 minutes before blocking the ascending aorta.In group U2,ulinastatin 10000 U/kg was infused via the aortic root at 4000-5000 U· kg-1 · min-1 at 5-7 minutes before opening the aorta.In group U3,ulinastatin preconditioning and postconditioning were performed as described in groups U1 and U2.In group C,the same volume of normal saline was infused instead of ulinastatin.Blood samples were taken from the radial artery at 10 minutes before blocking the ascending aorta,40 minutes after blocking the ascending aorta,45 minutes after opening the aorta and at the end of operation for determination of plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (sTNF-R1).Myocardial tissues were obtained from the right atrial appendage at 45 minutes after opening the aorta for determination of the expression of TNF-α,bcl-2,bax,caspase-3,and apoptosis.The bcl-2/bax ratio and apoptotic index were calculated.Results Plasma concentrations of TNF-α and sTNF-R1 and the expression of TNF-α,bax,caspase-3 and apoptotic index were lower and the expression of bcl-2 and bcl-2/bax ratio were higher in groups U1,U2 and U3 than in group C and they were lower in group U3 than in groups U1 and U2 (P < 0.05).Conclusion Ulinastatin postconditioning can inhibit myocardial apoptosis in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with CPB,and the efficacy of combination of ulinastatin preconditioning and postconditioning is stronger than that of ulinastatin postconditioning.The mechanism is involved in balancing the expression of bax and bcl-2 and down-regulating the expression of TNF-α and its receptor.
