Objective:To study the diagnostic and therapeutic value of open food challenge in children with cow ′s milk protein allergy.Methods:It is a retrospective analysis of 55 children with suspected cow′s milk protein allergy ( CMPA ) who attended the clinic of the pediatric gastroenterology department ,the First Hospital of Jilin University from March 2014 to March 2015.These children were fed by a mino acid based formulae ( AAF) for 2-4 weeks and then open food challenge ( OFC) test was performed.Those children who tested positive , were diagnosed as having CMPA.They were then fed with AAF for further 3 months and OFC was performed again.Then discusse the diagnostic and therapeutic value of open food challenge in children with cow ′s milk protein allergy.Results:Out of 55 CMPA suspected children ,52 tested positive with OFC yielding a positive rate of 94.55%.These 52 children were fed with AAF for further 3 months and then tested with OFC ,9 children tested positive yielding a positive rate of 17.30%.These 9 children were again fed with AAF for 3 months and then tested with OFC.This time 2 children tested positive yielding a positive rate of 3.85%.Con-clusion:Open food challenge teats are of great significance in the diagnosis of CMPA ,and evaluation of tolerance to cow′s milk protein ( CMP).

Chitosan-carboxymethyl-chitosan complex film was prepared by freeze drying. Some tests in vivo and in animal were employed, in order to evaluate it on biology. All results indicated that the film has not only good surface compatibility but also good structural compatibility. It can be more suitable for GTR technology.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the diagnostic value of the contrast-enhanced ultrasonography for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). The conventional transabdominal ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography using an intraluminal contrast agent were performed in 66 cases. The different diagnostic value between conventional transabdominal ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced hydrocolon ultrasonography was compared, including the depiction ratio and location accuracy. The morpholpgical features of GISTs were observed. The sensitivity of the contrast-enhanced hydrocolon ultrasonography in the depiction of the GISTs (57/66, 86.4%) was higher than that of the conventional transabdominal ultrasonography(33/66, 50%, P<0. 05). Furthermore, the accuracy of the contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in the location of the GISTs (52/57, 91. 2%) was higher than that of the conventional transabdominal ultrasonography (13/33, 39. 4%, P<0. 05). The GISTs with higher or lower risk have different ultrasonic features. The contrast-enhanced ultrasonography was a more valuable diagnostic method for GIST than the conventional transabdominal ultrasonography.

Objective:To explore the effect of attentional bias training on the attentional bias, psychological craving and relapse rate of alcohol dependent patients during rehabilitation.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was used to select 90 alcohol-dependent patients and randomly divide them into an intervention group and a control group. The alcohol cue pictures and neutral pictures were imported into E-Prime software at a ratio of 1∶1.The patients in the two groups were trained for eight times with attentional bias and without attentional bias by point delection paradigm. After each training, the software automatically records the response time and correct rate of the cue pictures and neutral pictures, and before intervention(T0), after 4 interventions(T4), and after 8 interventions(T8), the alcohol craving score was assessed by visual analogue scale and the relapse situation was followed up 1 month after the intervention. SPSS 24.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Repeat measure ANOVA, χ2 test and t-test were used to compare the response time, accuracy and psychological craving of the two groups. Results:Repeated measurement analysis of variance showed that there were interaction between group and time in cue-map response time, line chart accuracy and psychological craving score of the two groups ( F=5.218, 6.939, 147.14, all P<0.01). Simple effect analysis showed that there was no significant difference in cue pictures response time, cue pictures accuracy and psychological craving score between the intervention group and the control group at T0(all P>0.05), but there was significant difference at T4 and T8 (all P<0.05), and there was significant difference in neutral pictures reaction only at T8 ( P<0.05). The comparison between two groups showed that the intervention group showed a downward trend in cue pictures response, T4 and T8 were lower than T0, with statistical difference (both P<0.001), while there was no difference in the control group. In the intervention group, the correct rate of cue pictures increased, T4 and T8 were higher than T0, and there were statistical differences (both P<0.001), while there was no difference in the control group( P>0.05). The psychological craving scores of both the intervention group and the control group showed a downward trend, T4 and T8 were lower than T0, there were statistical differences (both P<0.001), but the difference between T4 and T8 in the control group remained unchanged. One month after the end of the intervention, the difference in the rate of relapse between the intervention group and the control group was marginal (11.10%, 26.70%, P=0.059). The total number of days of abstinence in the intervention group was longer than that in the control group ((28.33±4.99)d, (26.47±6.66)d, P=0.010). Conclusion:Attentional bias training can improve the mental craving and attentional bias of alcohol-dependent patients during the rehabilitation period, and the relapse rate decreased one month after the intervention.
