Objective To describe the academic impact of publications from National Institute of Parasitic Diseases （NIPD），Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention，so as to give the quantity evidence for scientific research decision making. Methods The SCIE papers of NIPD published from 2011-2015 were searched and statistically analyzed. The number of published papers，citation frequencies，h⁃index，and funding resources were analyzed. The academic impact of the institute was assessed according to these data. Result A total of 361 papers were published by NIPD，and the quantity increased year by year. The majority type is original articles. The total citations were 1 641 times，the average citation per paper was 5.19 and h⁃index was 17. The majority of these papers were published in foreign professional periodicals，whose impact factors were between 1.194 and 6.751. The major resources of NIPD were from China，and NIPD also had good collaborations with institutions in US and Switzerland. In China and Asia，NIPD led the research in the field of parasitology and tropical medicine. Conclusion The quantity and quality of annual published papers of NIPD are on the rise. However，NIPD lagged behind the leading institutions in the world.

OBJECTIVE To know the incidence, etiology, risk factors of hospital-acquired pneumonia(HAP). METHODS From Jan 2003 to Dec 2004, 129 cases of HAP were retrospectively studied. Epidemiologic data, etiology , and evolution of pneumonia were recorded. RESULTS The 115 patients with HAP had one or more intrinsic risk factors, mainly malnutrition (albumin values

The paper briefly introduces the definition, characteristics of MOOC and its development both in China and abroad, ana-lyzes the relation between medical college and university library and MOOC.It points out that libraries should provide embedded course services based on MOOC, establish MOOC Information Commons ( IC) , develop MOOC specialized database and enhance capability of the librarians in order to develop MOOC from various aspects and continuously promote information service innovation.

Objective:For improving the imperfection of the Active contour model.Methods:This paper puts forward a new active contour model based on the greedy algorithm.The average contour length term is added into the internal energy of the model.The gradient directional energy is introduced to the external energy of the model.A fast algorithm is introduced to solve the minimum of region energy.The algorithm of add or delete snaxel also adopted in this paper.Segmentation of the MRI brain tumor are studied in the experiments.Results:Comparing to the manual segmentation and the GVF segmentation,the method is better.Conclusion:The results of experiments indicate that the model is none sensitive to initial contour.So this algorithm is practical.

Metastasis-associated in colon cancer-1 (MACC1),a newly discovered gene which controls tumor growth and metastasis,abnormally expresses in a variety of malignant tumors.As a key regulator of HGF-MET signal pathway,its coding protein can obviously promote invasion and metastasis of tumor cells.

Objective To explore the relationship between the protein expression of PCNA and biological behavior science in benignant pituita ry adenoma.Methods The protein expression of PCNA in 58 patien ts with pituitary adenoma were determined by ABC immunohistochemical method.Results The PCNA index was significantly higher in the patients with recurrent pituitary adenomas than in nonrecurrent ones(P<0.05).There was no significantly difference between bleeding and unbleeding group,cystic and noncystic group,large type and unlarge type group(P>0.05 respectively) .Conclusion The protein expressions of PCNA reflected the proli ferative activties of pituitary adenomas, and could be taken as one of the indic ators to evaluate recurrence and prognosis of the tumor.

Objective To compare the sensitivity and specificity between indirect enzyme -linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)and double -antibody sandwich ELISA kits produced in China and to select the best ELISA kit.Methods Samples for evaluation included 60 serum plates and 40 serum samples positive or weakly positive for antibody to hepatitis C virus (anti -HCV)which were confirmed by re-combinant immunoblot assay.These samples were tested with a sandwich ELISA kit and three indirect ELISA kits,all of which were pro-duced in China.Comparison between ELISA kits was made by paired chi -square test;comparison of false negative rate was made by R × C contingency table test.Results The sensitivities of three indirect ELISA kits and a sandwich ELISA kit were 90.2%,78.0%,95.1%, and 97.6%,respectively,and the specificities were 78.1%,72.6%,94.1%,and 100%,respectively.The sandwich ELISA kit had a 4-8 times higher sensitivity than indirect ELISA kits.The R ×C contingency table test revealed significant differences in false negative rate between ELISA kits and combinations of ELISA kits (χ2 =29.898,P <0.05).Conclusion Sandwich ELISA kit has higher sensitivity and specificity than indirect ELISA kits.Combined use of sandwich ELISA and indirect ELISA kits can significantly reduce the false negative rate and effectively prevent missed anti -HCV detection.

ObjectiveTo sum up the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of concealed penis,analyze the indications and advantages of different operative methods for concealed penis.Methods62 children with concealed penis were treated by different surgical operations according to the different types,and the effect of surgical treatment was arelyzed.ResultsOpertaions were successed in all 62 cases,children were discharged after 5 ～ 10 operation days.After follow-up for 3 months to 2 years,62 children had received good recovered with an effective exposure of penis and no severe edema and other complications.ConclusionChildren with concealed penis should be given personalized scheme,choose the best method to extend the length of the penis and improve the penis appearance.

Hypoglycemia is a common and early metabolic disease of neonate.Serious and persistent hypoglycemia could result in brain damage.So far the pathogenesis of the disease is on research,but the definition of hypoglycemia,the glucose threshold of intervention,and diagnostic criteria of brain damage are still unclear.The pathogenesis of hypoglycemia is complicated.Brain damage may be related to the specific excitory amino acids receptors,reduced blood flow in occipital lobe,and cerebral hypoxia and ischemia.Diffusion weighted imaging of brain MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopy are strongly recommended for the diagnosis of brain damage.Besides,clinical manifestation and cerebral function monitor are also included in the diagnosis.The threshold of intervention is suggested as serum glucose concentration with 2.2 ～ 2.6 mmol/L.
