1.Progress of the renal chloride channel CLC-5 and Dent disease
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;42(1):73-75
Chloride channel CLC-5 is a voltage-dependent gated channel.The voltage-gated characteristic of CLC-5 is not only regulated by glutamate E211 and E268,but also by lysine K210.In proximal renal tubule,CLC-5 can interact with megalin protein,and adjust the reabsorption of albumin together.CLC-5 can also affect the activities of the sodium hydrogen exchanger isoform 3 in proximal renal tubule.CLCN5 gene mutations can lead to Dent disease,and recent studies have found some new pathogenic mutants of CLC-5,VS05G,L266V and G446A,and so on.CLCN5 can also mutate together with ORCL1,and then result in Dent disease.However,the regulatory mechanism of the voltage-gated channel,physiological functions and molecular mechanism,and Dent disease are still not entirely clear.In this paper,we will review these problems of CLC-5.

Chinese Journal of Medical Imaging Technology 2019;35(12):1775-1779
Objective: To explore the impact of CT image reconstruction methods on the performance of pulmonary nodule detection algorithm based on deep learning (DL). Methods: Lung CT images of 298 cases were labeled by 2 attending doctors, and the inconsistent results between them were checked by a senior doctor. The final labels were regarded as the gold standards of this experiment. Pulmonary nodule detection algorithm was constructed based on a deep neural network and tested on these 298 cases. Comparing the output of the detection algorithm with the doctor's labeling, the sensitivity, accuracy and F1-score of the algorithm were calculated, especially those under different CT image reconstruction methods. Afterwards, the false-positive detections of the algorithm were checked, and the detailed distribution of these false positives was presented. Diagnostic effects of the model were analyzed among different CT image reconstruction algorithms. Results: The sensitivity of pulmonary nodule detection algorithm under mediastinum, lung, and bone CT reconstruction methods was 92.33% (313/339), 86.97% (287/330) and 92.73% (319/344), while the precision was 23.55% (313/1 329), 37.91% (287/757) and 27.84% (319/1 146), respectively. Taken sensitivity and precision into account, F1-socre of these 3 reconstruction methods was 0.38, 0.53 and 0.43, respectively (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Pulmonary nodule detection algorithm based on DL achieves excellent performance under pulmonary window reconstruction, mediastinum window reconstruction and bone window reconstruction, which can help doctors to improve work efficiency and diagnose quality.

Objective? To investigate the impact of establishing a follow-up center on the perception of vulnerability and anxiety in the parents of children of congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing interventional therapy. Methods? A total of 80 parents of children with CHD undergoing interventional therapy in the Cardiology Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from September 2017 to December 2017 were selected as study subjects by purposive sampling method. The parents of the children admitted to hospital from September to October in 2017 were the control group, while the parents of children in the period from November to December in 2017 were the experimental group. The control group were given general discharge guidance, and the intervention group was included in the Follow-up Center for intervention. Parent Perception of Vulnerability Scale and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were applied to evaluate the intervention effects. Results? There was no statistical significance in the difference in scores of Parent Perception of Vulnerability Scale between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). The scores of Parent Perception of Vulnerability Scale at the time of discharge and 3 months after intervention of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.01). There was no statistical significance in the difference in the scores of SAS between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). At the time of discharge and 3 months after intervention, the score of SAS was lower in the experimental group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions? Setting up the Follow-up Center for parents of children can effectively reduce the perceived vulnerability and anxiety of them, and it is suggested that they should be further popularized and applied clinically.
