OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of health intervention on blood pressure,medication compliance and the quali-ty of life in elderly patients with hypertension. METHODS:64 elderly patients with hypertension were selected and randomly divid-ed into observation group and control group,with 32 cases in each group. Both groups were given Amlodipine besylate tablet 5 mg,qd. Control group received routine hypertension knowledge education and regular recheck by guidance. Observation group addi-tionally received health intervention on the basis of control group. The blood pressure control,cognitive level of patients to hyper-tension,medication compliance,the level of trust in physicians and quality score of life were compared between 2 groups before and after intervention. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure be-tween 2 groups before intervention (P>0.05). After intervention,systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in cognitive level of patients to hypertension,medication compliance,the level of trust in physicians and quality score of life between 2 groups before intervention (P>0.05). After intervention,the observation group was better than the control group in terms of cognitive level of patients to hypertension,medication compliance,the level of trust in physicians and quality score of life,with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Health intervention can effec-tively improve the cognitive level of elderly patients with hypertension to hypertension,improve the medication compliance and the level of trust in physicians,control blood pressure and improve the quality of life.

Objective:To observe the efficacy of auricular acupoint sticking based on conventional treatment in treating pain in early-stage extremity trauma.Methods:A hundred eligible patients with acute soft tissue injury or acute closed fracture were randomized into an observation group and a control group by their admission sequence, 50 cases in each group. The two groups both received routine management including routine checking, external fixing, traction, raising up the affected limb, etc., as well as cold compress with Chinese medication (Xiao Zhong Zhi Tong Powder). In addition to the routine management, the control group was given oral administration of amidopyrine and phenacetin compound tablet, 1 tablet per dose, twice a day, which was then taken only when necessary or terminated after pain subsided. The observation group was given auricular acupoint sticking in addition to the routine management. The two groups were compared in terms of numerical rating scale (NRS) score, therapeutic efficacy and adverse reactions after pain was relieved.Results:After the intervention, the NRS scores dropped significantly in both groups (P<0.01); the NRS score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).The total effective rate in the observation group was superior to that in the control group (P<0.05).There were no severe adverse reactions in the two groups.Conclusion:Based on routine management, auricular acupoint sticking can produce a more significant efficacy in treating pain in early-stage extremity trauma compared to amidopyrine and phenacetin compound tablet; it can effectively reduce pain of the affected limb and prevent complications; it's easy-to-operate and safe; patients can learn and understand it easily; its efficacy is confirmed; it enhances the satisfaction degree of the inpatients. Therefore, this method is worth promoting in clinic.

Phlegm syndrome, as the main syndrome of coronary heart diseases, not only its clinical signs and symptoms are clear, but also related with gene polymorphism, plasma metabolomics, genomics protein metabolism and urine metabolomics indicators, especially the close connection between serum lipids and phlegm syndrome in coronary heart diseases. The further research on the connection can be used as the references for the syndrome diagnosis and clinical treatment guidance, and provide solid foundation for TCM syndromes toward internationalization. This article pointed out that the treatment of coronary heart diseases should retain Chinese characteristics, focus on the basis of the phlegm syndrome, and pay attention to control lipid levels, in order to improve the clinical efficacy, and look forward to making progress in in-depth study on efficacy evaluation system of phlegm syndrome in coronary heart diseases.

Objective To explore the association between Q-1 and T1 locus polymorphism in ADAM33 gene and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in Han population in northern Guizhou by detecting Q-1 and T1 locus polymorphism in ADAM33 gene in patients with COPD in the distribution of frequency ,provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of COPD. Methods Polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing tech-nology,electrophoresis separation method were applied to detect Q-1 and T1 locus polymorphism in ADAM33 gene. Results The genotype distribution of Q-1 and T1 locus in the case group and the control group of ADAM33 gene were in accordance with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law and ADAM33 gene Q-1,T1 locus were C and T alleles. There was no significant difference in genotype and allele frequency distribution between the case group with control group,and COPD complicated with chronic respiratory failure(COPD)and hypoxemia(P > 0.05). T1(83 bp,112 bp)at a high probability of two heterozygous in the same samples(18/19),and is located in the encoding region. Conclusion No association was found between Q-1,T1 locus polymorphism in ADAM33 gene and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in Han population in northern Guizhou.

Objective To study the relationship between doses of ultrasound contrast agent(UCA) and contrast-enhancement effects of gray-scale imaging in rabbit liver. Methods Ultrasound contrast agent SonoVue TM in eight different doses ( 0.02 - 0.16 ml/kg) was applied respectively in five normal rabbits in randomized order as a bolus in a marginal ear vein followed by a 1.5 ml saline flush. Corresponding parameters of the time-intensity curve: time to enhancement(ET),time to peak intensity(PIT),peak signal intensity(PSI),mean transit time(MTT) and area under the curve(AUC) were measured using low mechanical index contrast gray-scale imaging and Wash-in/Wash-out time intensity curve software package. Results Along with an increase of the SonoVue TM dose,the MTT and the AUC increased exponentially,and the ET decreased exponentially. The PSI of portal vein and liver parenchyma increased only in the dose range from 0.02 ml/kg to 0.10 ml/kg ( r = 0.89 and 0.92 ,respectively),and decreased with a further increase of the UCA dose. A possible explanation for this effect is the bubble saturation and attenuation. No significant correlation was found between the UCA dose and the PIT( r = -0.35 and 0.22 ,respectively). Conclusions The parameters of time-intensity curve are influenced intensely by different UCA dose. It is important to grasp the relationship between the UCA doses and contrast-enhancement effects for microcirculatory quantification. The 0.10 ml/kg appears to be the optimal dose for tissue perfusion studying because it significantly improved videointensity and duration of enhancement and did not result in the bubble saturation and attenuation.

Objective To observe the dynamic levels of IL-2,IL-5 and IL-6 produced by Balb/ c mice infected with DEN_2 clinical strains and to study their relation.Methods The Balb/c mouse in- feetion model was established by multiple-site subcutaneous injection with various doses of DEN_2 clini- cal strain.Mouse plasma samples collected from different experiment groups at various time after in fection were tested for IL-2,IL-5 and IL-6 levels with sandwich ELISA.Results After primary in- feeted with DEN_2 B strain,the levels of IL-2,IL-5 and IL-6 of all experimental groups were not sig- nificantly higher than the normal control group while the levels of experimental groups increased sig- nificantly after re-infection.The level of IL-2 reached to peak[average value of(101 522.44?10 465.375)pg/ml]at the 4th day after re-infection(the 20th day after the primary infection),and then the level gradually reduced.The levels of IL-5 in the Balb/c mice of the group 1 and 2 reached to peak at the 1st day after re infection(the 16th day after the primary infection),and there was signifi- cant difference between these two groups and the control group(P＜0.05).The levels of IL-6 in all experimental groups reached to peak at the 1st and the 2nd day after re-infection.The peak value of the third group is the highest comparing with the normal control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Th2 response was predominant in the second infection phase.

Objective To build the screening model for population with Impaired Glucose Regulation (IGR)in community, and to evaluate its validity by using the model in general population. Methods Based on the epidemiological survey of DM in the community population in 2006, the analysis of the risk factors and the risk factors scoring method were used to build the screening model for IGR in community which was then used to screen for IGR in 2 120 general population in community to evaluate its validity. Result When the screening model was built with the accumulative score of risk factors ≥5, the sensitivity and specificity for identifying undiagnosed IGR were 68.2% and 61.7%, Youden's index was 0.299 and the positive predictive value was 14.2%. When 2 120 general population used the screening model, only 974 (45.9% of them)had to take OGTT test, and 124 (68.9%) IGR were identified. Conclusion The screening model with the accumulative score of risk factors ≥5 is an easy, effective and economic tool for IGR screening, and it can be tried to use in the screening for IGR in community, further research is needed.
