Professor LIU Qingguo's academic thoughts and clinical experience in treating pediatric tic disorders with scalp fire needling is introduced. Professor LIU believes that the core pathogenesis of this disease lies in "wind stirring and qi disorder, leading to the spirit failing to govern the body". Therefore, treatment should focus on "regulating the spirit to stabilize the form and extinguishing wind to stop movement". Clinically, the main acupoints include Shenting (GV24), Benshen (GB13), Xinhui (GV22), Baihui (GV20), Sishencong (EX-HN1), Fengchi (GB20), and Fengfu (GV16), which are rapidly punctured with fine fire needles, leading to significant therapeutic efficacy.

Objective:To discuss the differences in depression symptoms between genders and between only-children and non-only-children among adolescents through symptom network analysis of adolescent depression.Methods:A total of 650 adolescents were randomly selected from Chaoyang District,Changchun City,Jilin Province,and they were as the study samples.The Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9)was used to assess depression symptoms in the adolescents;network analysis was performed on the survey results to identify the core symptoms of adolescent depression and to compare gender differences and differences between only-children and non-only-children in depression symptoms.Results:The core symptoms of the adolescent depression were depressed mood[Closeness(Clo)=1.700 5,Strength(Str)=1.722 8]and lack of energy[Betweenness(Bet)=1.875 1].No significant differences in core symptoms were observed between males and females,but significant differences were found between only-children and non-only-children.Depression manifestations in the only-children also included psychomotor agitation or retardation.In the depression symptom network of the adolescents,the strongest edge connection was between anhedonia and depressed mood[Edge strength(Edge strength)=0.322 5],and significant differences were observed between genders and between only-children and non-only-children.The symptom network in male adolescents was consistent with the overall pattern,whereas in female adolescents,the strongest connection was the biggest between psychomotor agitation or retardation and suicidal ideation or self-harm(Edge strength=0.320 5).The symptom network in only-children was consistent with the overall pattern,whereas in non-only-children,the strongest connection was between depressed mood and feelings of worthlessness(Edge strength=0.287 4).Conclusion:The core symptoms of the adolescent depression exhibit differences between only-children and non-only-children,and the edge strengths in the symptom network show variations by gender and between only-children and non-only-children.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of multiple drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infection in respiratory elderly patients.Methods A total of 102 elderly patients infected with multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were enrolled in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2015.At the same time,no multiple drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infection elderly patients was selected as a control group.The gender,age,antimicrobial use,white blood cell count,mechanical ventilation time and other differences between the two groups of elderly patients were compared.Results There were significant differences in the days of hospitalization [(18.7±7.5) d vs.(10.0±2.7)d],the time of application of invasive ventilator[(24.6±10.3) d vs.(11.6±6.9)d] and the time of application of antimicrobial agents[(26.2±13.1) d vs.(8.0±2.6)d] (t=19.463、15.436、26.905,all P＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in immunosuppressant use,white blood cell count,serum protein level and APACHEⅡ score (all P＞0.05).Conclusions Reasonable scientific application of antimicrobial agents,reducing invasive mechanical ventilation time and improving patient immunity can help to reduce the risk of respiratory infection in elderly patients with multiple drug resistance to Acinetobacter baumannii.

Objective:Colorectal cancer screening was performed on a general population with age ranging between 40 and 74 years old to evaluate the screening effects of questionnaire survey, fecal occult blood (FOB) test, and colonoscopy, as well as to provide some implications of colorectal cancer screening strategies. Methods: Two-step screening model of questionnaire survey combined with FOB test was applied for the screening. Colonoscopy was conducted in a high-risk population identified through preliminary screening as final diagnosis. Results:Based on the 2,117,304 cases screened, the screening compliance was 39.72%, and 126,118 cases (5.96%) were identified as high risk. Colonoscopies were performed on 25,837 cases, of which 8,095, 1,236, 134, 112, and 336 were identified as adenoma, advanced adenoma, severe dysplasia lesions, early cancer, and advanced cancer, respectively. The early stage di-agnostic rate was 81.52%. Conclusion:The colorectal cancer screening method performed in Tianjin can significantly concentrate on the high-risk population with colorectal cancer, increase the positivity rate of total colonoscopy, and economize medical resources.

Objective To probe the Th cytokine pattern in pemphigus,so as to clarify the pathogenesis of pemphigus and draw up new therapy.Methods Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)was used to examine the interferon gamma(IFN-?)and interleukin10(IL-10)mRNA expression on peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)of20cases of pemphigus in acute stage,20cases in stable stage,and20normal controls.Results The IFN-?mRNA expression in20cases of pemphigus in acute stage was higher than that of controls(P
