ABSTRACT:Objective To study the efficacy and safety of oxcarbazepine (OXC)oral suspension on children with different kinds of epilepsy.Methods A total of 83 children with epilepsy were selected from the Pediatric Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University and Xi’an Children’Hospital from June 201 1 to June 2014.They were treated with OXC monotherapy or adjunctive therapy.Use open-label and self-contrast method.The initial dose of OXC was 8 -10 mg/(kg·d),and then was added 10 mg/(kg·d)per 7 days until it reached the minimum effective dose.Generally,the maintenance dose was about 20-40 mg/(kg·d).The follow-up duration was 6 - 12 months.Results 83 cases were eventually included and 5 cases withdrew.We elvaluated the efficacy every 3 months.The results were as follows:the first stage (1,2,3 months)resulted in a 41.0% of full control rate and a 71.8% of total effective rate;the second stage (4,5,6 months)resulted in a 46.2% of full control rate and a 76.9% of total effective rate;the third stage (7,8,9 months)resulted in a 59.0%of full control rate and a 79.5% of total effective rate.There were no significant differences in the efficacy of the three stages.54 cases with partial seizures resulted in a 59.3% of full control rate and a 79.6% of total effective
rate;24 cases with generalized seizure resulted in a 45.8% of full control rate and a 62.5% of total effective rate. There was no statistical significant difference in the efficacy of the two seizure types.43 cases with monotherapy resulted in a 58% of full control rate and a 79% of total effective rate,35 cases with add-on therapy resulted in a 40.0% of full control rate and a 57.1% of total effective rate.24 cases with < 2 resulted in a 41.7% of full control rate and a 62.5% of total effective rate,54 cases with 2-6 resulted in a 59.3% of full control rate and a 83.3% of total effective rate.14 cases of children were reported to have at least one adverse drug reactions,the specific symptoms included emotional instability unstable, hypohidrosis, somnolence, dizzness, headache, vomiting, urorrhea,lack of appetite,aggressive behavior and hypomnesia.Adverse reactions were mild and most of them could subside over time.Conclusion OXC oral suspension has a good efficacy and safety when treating children with partial seizures or generalized tonic-clonic seizures of epilepsy.

Objective To identify the most common fungal pathogens and their antifungal drug resistance in autoimmune disease (AD) patients with fungal infection , for guiding the rational use of antifungal therapy. Methods The identification were analyzed by ATB Expression automatic microbiology analytical instrument system. The antifungal susceptibility test was done by ATB FUNGUS strip. Results Of 428 patients studied,36(8.4%) had fungal infections. The most commonly infective sites were lower respiratory tract(53.5%),urinary tract(20.9%), intestinal tract(11.6%). A total of 43 fungi strains were isolated, the most common fungi were Candida albicans (65.1%), Candida glabrata (11.6%), Candida tropicalis (7.0%),and Candida parapsilosis (4.7%).Resistance rates of Candida albicans against ketoconazole, miconazole and econazole were 35. 7% , 46.4% and 32.1% , while resistance rates to fluconazole, amphotericin B, nystain and flucytosine were much lower, being 0, 14.3% , 14.3% and 7.1% . The resistance rates of other fungi were similar to Candida albicans. Conclusion The main pathogens causing fungal infection in patients with AD is Candida albicans. It should as early as possible process the clinical antifungal therapy under the result of antifungal susceptibility test and supportive measure.

Modeling biosecurity events based on mathematical theories to reveal the inherent mechanism can shed light on the development of biosecurity events and offer accurate scientific support to emergency preparation and response , con-tributing much to national biodefense capability .This paper reviews the applications of mathematical theories as a research and analytic tool in biosecurity and discusses the trends of development in this field .

To explore the transmission patterns and advise public health departments , this paper establishes a dynamic model on the peculiarity of avian influenza A (H7N9) virus and analyzes the dynamic feature of this type of bird flu trans-mission between humans and birds .Results show that this type of bird flu can be controled , and that closing down live-bird markets is the most effective method .

Human behavior significantly affects the spreading dynamics of infectious diseases in large populations .The study of the interplay between the adaptive behavior and the epidemic dynamics underlies the professional information release and psychological counseling mechanism and is conducive to disease control and social panic elimination .This paper aims at the investigation of the effect of adaptive behaviors on the spreading dynamics of epidemics in structured populations .We analyzed the empirical data on adaptive behavior from several large epidemics after the outbreak of SARS in 2003 and confirmed the induction effect of two main information sources on adaptive behavior , e.g., public available information and local perceived information .Then we investigated the effect of adaptive behavior on epidemic dynamics in a structured population based on two primary models , e.g., health-belief model and network model .The results showed that the individual adaptive behavior had significantly decreased the chance of infection and thus mitigated the epidemics . Human adaptive behavior has a significant effect on spreading dynamics of epidemics .An effective information release mechanism will induce human adaptive behavior and is thus conducive to control of epidemics .

Emerging large-scale epidemics not only cause heavy casualties , but have a huge impact on economy .This paper analyzes the characteristics and manners of the economic impact of emerging large -scale epidemics .Economic losses and the national economic impact of emerging large-scale epidemics are analyzed at three levels: microscopic , supply and demand , and macroscopic .Then the relationship between the these levels is discussed .This research is expected to play an important role in the construction of an appropriate economic model for analysis and calculation of economic losses of emerging large-scale epidemics , and in the formulation of the best cost-effective ratio for preventin and control measures against emerging large-scale epidemics .

Objective To develop a nursing standard of baccalaureate program for Shanghai Jiaotong University to guide and improve the training quality of nursing students.Methods On the basis of literature review,the nominal group technique and Delphi survey technique were used to develop the standard.Results The training objective and the training plan included attitude,knowledge and ability constituted the standard.Conclusions The deficient of dominating personalities or obedience to authority which existed in traditional group discussion can be diminished in this study.The nominal group technique is a scientific and professional method for the construction and evaluation of nursing program.

Objective To compare the traumatic indicators of complete video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (c-VATS) with traditional open surgery (TOS) for lung cancer patients, and further explore the minimal invasiveness of c-VATS. Methods From January 2010 to February 2013, 45 cases with complete video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (c-VATS gurop) and 42 cases with traditional open surgery (TOS group) were compared in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, duration of chest drainage, the perioperative cytokine and immune cells (CRP,WBC,N,L),pain score and shoulder function score. Results There was no significant difference between groups in sex, age, pathological type, stage,operating time and the perioperative cytokine and immune cells (CRP, WBC, N, L) ( >0.05);Compared with TOS group, c-VATS group intraoperative blood loss was significantly reduced [(167.4±68.5) mL vs (288.6±84.0) mL, =0.000];Drainage time of TOS group was significantly longer than that of c-VATS group [(4.64±2.10) days vs (3.20±1.20) days, =0.000];The postoperative pain measurements in c-VATS group were less than that in TOS group, but the difference between groups was not significant on postoperative 1 day ( =0.542) and significant on postoperative 3 day,7 day,30 day ( = 0.034, 0.000, 0.000) . Patients activities of daily living scores at postoperative 7 day and 30 day in c-VATS group were significantly better than those in TOS group, with statistically significant differences ( =0.000,0.000) . Conclusion Whether the short-term effect or the long-term results,the VATS lung resection is better than the traditional open surgery. c-VATS resection of lung cancer is more invasive.

Syndromic surveillance , based on non-specific pre-diagnosis and other information , is capable of nearly real-time detection and early warning of potential bioterrorism and emerging infectious threats .Developed countries , led by the U.S., have conducted in-depth and front research in this area while China has just started syndromic surveillance re -search in the exploratory trial stage .The Chinese army is facing an urgent need for syndromic surveillance .This paper makes a case study of foreign military syndromic surveillance practices , typically the U.S.representative system ESSENSE , which was developed by the U .S.Department of Defense and deployed in all military treatment facilities .Some suggestions for the Chinese army are also discussed .
