Objective To observe the effect of the occupational therapy (OT) on people with mental disability in community of Beijing and analyze its related factors. Methods 180 mentally disabled persons from 15 disabled persons' centers (DPCs) in a district of Beijing were studied with a self-developed questionnaire. They were investigated twice with a 6-month interval, and the results were compared. Results 160 questionnaires were valid for analysis. The score of OT improved (P<0.05) in 103 (64.38%) respondents. The main factors related with the effectiveness of the OT included OT categories, age and vocational assessment. Conclusion OT is effective on people with mental disability in the DPCs, and could be improved in some aspects, such as regular vocational assessment.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of hepatitis B virus-X protein (HBx) on invasion and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells.Methods The retrospective cohort study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 30 patients with liver tumor (20 with HCC and 10 with benign tumor of liver) who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical College between July 2014 and July 2015 were collected.HCC tissues of 20 patients with HCC (with history of HBV infection) were collected by surgical resection and peritumoral normal tissues (outside of tumor capsule) of 10 patients with benign tumor of liver (without history of HBV infection) were collected.The expressions of epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (ErbB3)in HCC tissues and peritumoral normal tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC).The relative expressions of ErbB3 and HBx in HCC tissues and peritumoral normal tissues were detected by Western blot,and relative expressions of ErbB3 in HepG2 of which green fluorescent protein (GFP) and GFP-HBx were respectively transfected were detected.The relative expressions of ErbB3 mRNA in HepG2 transfected by GFP and GFP-HBx were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The migration and invasion of HepG2 were respectively detected by Transwell assay with and without matrix.The measurement data with normal distribution were represented as $± s.The comparisons between groups were evaluated with the independent-sample t test.Correlation analysis was done by the Pearson test.Results (1) The expressions of ErbB3 were detected by IHC:relative value of mean optical density (MOD) of ErbB3 in HCC tissues of 20 patients with HCC and peritumoral normal tissues of 10 patients with benign tumor of liver were 2.54± 1.33 and O.99±0.29,respectively,with a statistically significant difference (t =6.542,P ＜ 0.05).(2) The relative expressions of ErbB3 and HBx were detected by Western blot:relative expressions of ErbB3 and HBx were respectively 0.79±0.13,1.10±0.28 in HCC tissues of 10 patients with HCC and 1.07±0.17,0 in peritumoral normal tissues of 10 patients with benign tumor of liver,with statistically significant differences (t =3.229,19.486,P＜0.05).The results of Pearson test showed that there was a positive correlation of expression between ErbB3 and HBx in HCC tissues (r=O.637,P＜ 0.05).(3) The relative expressions and transcriptional levels of ErbB3 were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR:relative expressions of ErbB3 in HepG2 of which GFP and GFP-HBx were respectively transfected were O.75±0.11 and 1.10±0.10,respectively,with a statistically significant difference (t=4.291,P＜0.05).The relative expressions of ErbB3 mRNA in HepG2 of which GFP and GFP-HBx were respectively transfected were O.38±0.03 and O.94±0.07,respectively,with a statistically significant difference (t=11.703,P＜O.05).(4) The effects of ErbB3 on migration and invasion of HepG2:numbers of transmenbrane cell in HepG2 of which His and His-ErbB3 were respectively transfected by Transwell assay with matrix were respectively 271± 18 and 463± 31,respectively,with a statistically significant difference (t =8.202,P＜0.05).Numbers of transmenbrane cell in HepG2 of which His and His-ErbB3 were respectively transfected by Transwell assay without matrix were respectively 315±38 and 549±34,respectively,with a statistically significant difference (t =8.310,P＜0.05).Conclusion HBx protein can promote the invasion and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma cells through up-regulating expressions of ErbB3 protein.

Objective To evaluate the role of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in perioperative period of pediatric patients with congenital heart disease (CHD).Methods From July 2011 to December 2012,TEE was used in 393 pediatric patients(≤ 14 years) with congenital heart disease in perioperative period.We make a retrospective review with the clinical data of these cases.Results Operative schemes or therapeutic schedules of 60 patients(15.3％) were altered according to TEE.By preoperative TEE,the diagnosis of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) of 4 cases(1.0％) were amended,4 cases (1.0％) were complemented,and 4 cases (1.0％) got the auxiliary diagnosis,among which operative schemes of 11 cases (2.8％)were altered.During the operate,29 cases(7.4％) found residual problems,11 cases(2.8％) got the auxiliary diagnosis.By postoperative TEE,7 cases(1.8％) found residual problems,1 case(0.3％) got the auxiliary diagnosis.Complications occurred in 9 cases(2.3％) of the 393 patients.Oral and pharyngeal mucous membrane bleeding occurred in 7 cases (1.8％),inadvertent tracheal extubation in 2 cases(0.5％).Conclusion TEE plays an important role in confirming preoperative diagnoses,formulating surgical plans,evaluating immediate operative results,identifying patients with residual defects and guiding the therapeutic schedule in perioperative period of pediatric patients with congenital heart disease.

ObjectiveModern scientific methods and techniques were used to scientifically characterize the traditional softening process of Corydalis Rhizoma， so as to clarify the scientificity and rationality of the traditional process， and provide reference for inheriting the processing methods and experience of traditional Chinese medicine. MethodLow-field nuclear magnetic resonance imaging （LF-NMR/MRI） was used to characterize the water types and distribution in the softening process of Corydalis Rhizoma. Samples during the softening process was cut into thick slices and its section was observed by stereoscopic microscope. High performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） was employed to determine the content change of tetrahydropalmatine during the softening process with the mobile phase of methanol-0.1% phosphoric acid solution （60∶40， triethylamine regulated to pH 6.5） and detection wavelength at 280 nm. The determination method of softening endpoint of Corydalis Rhizoma was simulated by texture analyzer （hand pinch method）， and the softening degree of the finished products was determined after optimizing the relevant parameters. ResultLF-NMR/MRI showed that the water could penetrate through the core and distribute evenly in Corydalis Rhizoma softened by Zhangbang method. The water first entered into the medicinal material from the epidermis and stem marks in the soaking stage as the form of free water， and then penetrated into the inner core to achieve redistribution in the moistening stage. Under stereoscopic microscope， it was observed that Corydalis Rhizoma softened by the Zhangbang method could be sliced well， but the core bursting slices were easy to appear if the softening time was not enough， and the softening of samples was caused by the keratine-like powder after absorbing water. HPLC measurement showed that the loss of tetrahydropalmatine in the softening method was small， its content decreased about 5% in the soaking process， and its content was almost unchanged during the moistening process. The softening degree of Corydalis Rhizoma could be quantified by the texture analyzer， and the optimum parameters were 2 mm·s^-1 of speed before test， test speed and speed after test， 20 g of the trigger force， 20% of compression degree. The compressive force of the qualified softened Corydalis Rhizoma was 12.75-15.69 N with the relative standard deviation （RSD） of 6.8%. ConclusionModern scientific methods and techniques can characterize the scientificity and rationality of the traditional processing methods， and confirm that the Zhangbang softening method has the advantages of high efficiency， convenience and small loss of index components. The texture analyzer can simulate the softening endpoint judgment method （hand pinch method）， and realize the goal from subjective experience judgment to objective technology quantification， which has a good demonstration role for the modern inheritance of traditional processing technology.
