Existing reporting guidelines for systematic reviews/Meta-analysis (SRs/MAs) cannot meet the requirements of clinical practice and scientific research, so based on evidence, methods and thoughts on establishing reporting guidelines for TCM-featured acupuncture systematic reviews/Meta-analysis were proposed. Through literature analysis, according to evidence-based principle, preliminary ideas on methodology of establishing reporting guidelines for TCM-featured acupuncture systematic reviews /Meta-analysis were proposed. With consensus as one main research method, it was proposed that in the consensus that was selected and established by experts, the pro- portion of Chinese scholars should be increased to fully declare the opinions of Chinese acupuncturists, and by verification of practice and application, the reporting guidelines for TCM-featured acupuncture systematic reviews/Meta-analysis can be finally made.

Objective To provide a basis for specific intervention by dynamic observation of the households'related health life behavior and the children fluorosis change trend caused by the coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis in Pu'an County.Methods Three villages were chosen using simple random sampling method in 2011-2013 for continuous monitoring.Every monitoring year in each monitoring village,according to the principle of every household survey,10 households were selected to survey related health life behavior;,and in the monitoring village all the children aged 8-12 years old were selected for Diagnosis of Dental Fluorosis (WS/T 208-2001),and in each age group,10 urine samples (half male half female) were collected,the fluoride content was determined by the ion selective electrode method (WS/T 89-1996).Results In 2011-2013,the households stoves qualified rate,stoves correct usage rate and the corn or chili correct drying rate were all 100.00％ (30/30).The dental fluorosis incidences of 8-12 years old children were 63.60％ (332/522),25.44％ (173/680) and 14.29％ (80/560),respectively,decreased year by year (x2 =324.67,P ＜ 0.05).In 2011-2013,children urinary fluoride levels were 0.83,0.84 and 0.68 mg/L,respectively.The difference between years was statistically significant (x2 =26.89,P ＜ 0.05),and the level in 2013 was significantly lower than those of 2011 and 2012 (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion In 2011-2013,the residents in Pu'an have good health life behavior,and the condition of children's dental fluorosis is decreased year by year.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment (LOTCA) battery for patients at the early stage of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods 72 patients with TBI hospitalized from January, 2013 to October, 2014 and 30 healthy controls matched gender, age and educational background were assessed with the Chinese version of LOTCA battery and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) respectively. Results The score of MMSE and LOTCA were correlated (r=0.56, P<0.01). Compared with the controls, the scores of all the subtests of LOTCA decreased (P<0.01) in the patients, especially the orientation, visuomo-tor organization and thinking operation;with the more incidence of medium and serious dysfunction of all the subtests of LOTCA except perception (P<0.01), in which thinking operation was the most and attention was the least. The area under the receiver operating curve (ROC) was (0.84±0.04) in LOTCA, less than that of (0.91±0.03) in MMSE (P<0.05). Conclusion Cognition is widely impaired in patients after TBI, most involved thinking operation. LOTCA is less effective to identify cognitive dysfunction than MMSE, and can be used as an al-ternation or a supplement.

Objective To test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the John Hopkins Adapted Cognitive Exam ( ACE) in NICU patients. Methods The English ACE was translated and adapted into the Chinese version . Cognitive functions of 40 critically ill patients in NICU were assessed with the Chi?nese version of ACE and MMSE battery.The scores of ACE and MMSE were analyzed to test the content va?lidity,construct validity,concurrent validity,internal consistency,inter?rater reliability and test?retest reliabil?ity.Result The correlation coefficient between each factor and the total score ranged from 0.617 to 0.938, and the content validity was good.The ACE was significantly correlated with MMSE( r=0.822, P<0.05). Five factors were extracted by main principle analysis, the cumulative contribution was 85. 90%, the factor loading of each item was all over 0.5,the scale had good construct validity.There existed a good internal con?sistency ( Cronbach’ α=0.756 ) as well as a good inter?rater reliability ( ICC>0.95) and test?retest reliabil?ity (ICC=0.652?0.979) of the Chinese version of ACE.Conclusions The Chinese version of ACE has been proved to be a reliable and valid screening tool for cognitive impairment in NICU patients.

Objective To evaluate the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) for detecting the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in brain trauma patients with normal mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores.Methods Fifty brain trauma patients with normal MMSE scores hospitalized from January 2013 to June 2014 were subjected to the MoCA test.The patients were classified as cognitive impairment group scored less than 26 on the MoCA and cognitive normal group scored 26 or above on the MoCA.Differences in MMSE and MoCA scores of the two groups were compared.Receiver operative characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off scores in screening for MCI.Results Overall MMSE and MoCA scores were (27.84 ± 0.89) points and (23.24 ± 2.90) points.There was a positive correlation between MoCA and MMSE total scores (r =0.355 2,P ＜ 0.05).MCI was found in 79％ of the brain trauma patients using the MoCA.MMSE total score and subscores were all similar between the two groups.MoCA total score and subscores of attention,language,abstraction and delayed recall were much higher in cognitive normal group than in cognitive impairment group (P ＜0.05),but there were no significant differences in visuospatial,naming and oritention domains.Area under the ROC curve for MoCA(0.871 ± 0.038) was larger compared with MMSE (0.796 ± 0.054) (Z =3.592,P ＜ 0.05).The optimal cut-off scores of MoCA and MMSE for the identification of MCI were 25.5 and 28.5 respectively.Conclusions MoCA and MMSE total scores are positively correlated.MoCA is a better detector for the identification of MCI in brain trauma patients than the MMSE.

Objective To explore the relationship between MspⅠpolymorphism of CYP1A1 gene and susceptibility to breast cancer in Yi nationality in Yunnan province. Methods The gene polymorphism of restriction enzyme of 3′-terminal of CYP1A1 was detected by PCR-RFLP in 60 healthy Yi women , 51 Yi women with breast cancer, 235 healthy Han women, and 250 Han women with breast cancer. Results The distribution frequency of CYP1A1-MspⅠgenotypes was significantly higher in Yi women with breast cancer (51.0%) than in the healthy Yi women (33.3%) (P < 0.05), an the allele C had a higher frequency in women with breast cancer than in healthy controls (P < 0.05). Significant differences of frequencies were found in genotypes TT, TC and CC between women with breast cancer and healthy controls (P < 0.05). The risks of TC and CC for breast cancer were 1.19 and 1.95 folds respectively to TT genotype. But as compared with Yi women , the distribution frequency of CYP1A1-MspⅠ genotypes did not differ between Han women with breast cancer and in the healthy control (P > 0.05), and there were no differences in three genotype frequencies (P > 0.05). Conclusions Gene polymorphism of CYP1A1 genotypes may be associated with the risk of breast cancer in Yi nationality but not in Han nationality in Yunnan. The mutation of CYP1A1 gene may increase the incidence of breast cancer in Yi nationality.
