Objective To study the relationship between overweight, obesity and blood pressure among children living in urban Beijing. Methods A total of 4 267 pupils aged 9～10 years were randomly selected. Overweight and obesity were defined by age and sex specific BMI classification reference for Chinese children. Hypertension was defined by age, sex and height specific reference for US children. Results The prevalence of overweight and obesity in boys was 19.4% and 21.2%, in girls was 10.9% and 12.1%, respectively. Mean levels of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) have significant different between all study group. The total prevalence of high blood pressure (HBP) was 16.1% for boys and 15.2% for girls, while it was 36.4% and 41.3% among obese boys and girls, respectively. The prevalence of high systolic blood pressure (HSBP), high diastolic blood pressure (HDBP)and HBP gradually increased as weight increased. Compared with the normal weight group, OR(95%CI) for HBP of overweight and obese children were 2.6 (2.1～3.3) and 5.8 (4.7～7.0), respectively. Conclusion Obesity is positive correlation with hypertension in children aged 9～10years of Beijing, and the risk of hypertension was increased with their body weight.

Objective To explore the expression of ErbB3 in osteosarcoma cell lines Saos-2 and its significance.Methods Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detected ErbB3 mRNA expression in osteosarcoma cell lines Saos-2 and normal human osteoblasts cell lines N704,and Western blotting was used to detected ErbB3 protein expression.Short hairpin RNA was used to construct ErbB3 knockdown cells and the cell count in 0-3 d was detected.The 48 h survival rates of ErbB3 knockdown cells and normal Saos-2 cells were detected in the presence of 0-100 μmol/L paclitaxel.Results Real-time quantitative PCR showed significant enhanced ErbB3 mRNA expression in Saos-2 cells compared with N704 [(4.15 ± 0.04) times,t =7.31,P ＜0.05],and Western blotting showed significant enhanced ErbB3 expression in Saos-2 cells compared with N704.As compared with normal Saos-2 cells,ErbB3 knockdown could reduce the Saos-2 cells proliferation,at the first three days in culture,the Saos-2 cell number of ErbB3 silent was (22.2 ± 2.9) thousand,and the control was (45.8 ± 4.1) thousand,with statistical significance (t =8.23,P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,ErbB3 knockdown could reduce the Saos-2 cells tolerance to paclitaxel,when treated with 20 μmol/L paclitaxel,surviving cells in ErbB3 silent group was (43.2 ± 4.7) ％,and the control was (61.4 ± 5.9) ％,with statistical significance (t =6.74,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion ErbB3 highly expresses in Saos-2 cells,ErbB3 expression can enhance the proliferation of Saos-2 cells and the tolerance of Saos-2 cells to paclitaxel.

Objective To summarize the clinical, electrophysiological, pathological characteristics of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). Methods From Jan 1990 to Dec 2003, 32 patients of CIDP were admitted by our hospital, 14 male and 18 female. The age range of onset of illness was 13 to 74 years old (averaging 42.56) with the prime period of 40 to 50. Before hospitalization, the course was from 2 months to 5 years. Among all patients, there were 8 cases of a relapsing course and 24 cases of a chronic progressive course. Twenty-four patients were treated with corticosteroids, while 7 received immuglobin (IG) and corticosteroids. The clinical data before and after the treatment was studied retrospectively. Results Most of the patients had subacute or chronic onsets. The common initial symptoms are numbness, paresthesia, and extremity weakness. Diplopia, decreased visual acuity, dysarthria, and dysphagia could also be found initially. It was usually a symmetric sensorimotor neuropathy with either a relapsing course or a chronic progressive course. It could be accompanied with autonomic dysfunction and cranial nerve involvement. Electromyogram demonstrated that the motive and sensory nerve conduction velocities were slow. The sural nerve biopsy showed demyelination and remyelination. `IG and corticosteroids were both effective. Conclusion CIDP might result in widespread peripheral nerve damages, in which autonomic dysfunction and cranial nerve involvement were common. The dominant electrophysiological changes showed peripheral nerve demyelination accompanied by axon degeneration. The sural nerve biopsy played an important role of diagnosis. The treatment with IG and corticosteroids was a most effective way for CIDP nowadays.

Objective To investigate and analyze the dwarf reasons for children in the area of Huai'an city,Jiangsu province.Methods A retrospective analysis of 92 cases of children with short stature in our hospital in recent 5 years had been made.Results The dwarf reasons for the 92 cases of undersized children were:lack of growth hormone (53.3％),physical sexual puberty delay (16.3％),hypothyroidism (9.8％),turner syndrome (7.6％),nanosoma essentialis (5.4％),familial short stature (4.3％),intrauterine growth retardation (2.2％)and glycogen storage disease type Ⅰ (1.1％).Conclusion The main dwarf reasons for children were growth hormone deficiency and physical sexual puberty delay,and medical treatment should be used as soon as possible.

Objective To study the alteration of microbial population distribution and resistance of clinical bacterial isolates in patients with severity muhiple injuries. Methods The distributed Features of 432 strains of infection germs detected among the patients with severe muhiple iniuries admitted into hospital from January 2004 to December 2006 were statistically analyzed during. Results In the total 432 strains,the G accounted for 62.9%(272/432),dominated mainly by pathogens including Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Acinetobacter baumanni I and Escherichia Coli.The G+accounted for 37%(160/432),mainly including Staphylococcus anreus,enterococci and coagulase negative staphylococcus (CNS).Mixed infection rate was 41.1%.The isolating rate of enterococci.CNS and Sten Matophilia was obviously upgraded. Conclusions The source of infection in patients with severity multiple injuries is Gram-negative bacterium,suggesting that surveillance of bacterial resistance and rational use of antimicrobial agents should be emphasized during clinical therapy.
