Objective To dynamically measure level of surfactant protein D(SP-D)in patients with severe multiple trauma and discuss the relationship between SP-D and acute lung injury(ALI)/ARDS and its clinical significance. Methods A total of 36 patients with severe multiple trauma were divided into ALI/ARDS group(20 patients)and non-ALI/ARDS group(16 patients).Peripheral blood samples were collected at days 1,3,7 and 14 after trauma for calculating lung injury score(LIS)and PaO2/FiO2 ratio.Another 12 healthy persons were served as control group.Plasma SP-D levels were measured by using enzyme linked immunoabsorbent assay(ELISA). Results The plasma SP-D levels in ALI/ARDS group were markedly higher than those of control group and non-ALI/ARDS group(P<0.01).In ALI/ARDS group,the plasma SP-D levels in severe lung injury group were significantly higher than those of modcrate lung injury group(P<0.05).The plasma SP-D levels in ALI/ARDS group were inversely related to their PaO2/FiO2 ratios(rs=-0.745,P<0.01). Conclusions The plasma SP-D level is relevant not only to the occurrence of traumatic ALI/ARDS after multiple trauma,but also closely to the severity of lung injury,indicating that plasma SP-D is a valuable biomarker in ALI/ARDS.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the quality of life and different frequency of sudden death in Yunnan unexplained sudden death disease area.Methods According to the stratified cluster sampling method,728 individuals were selected as the respondents in Heqing County,Eryuan County of Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture,and in Dayao County of Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture.According to the random sampling,649 individuals were selected as the control in Yongping County,Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture.Data of the quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF version) were collected through household surveys.Analysis method including ANOVA,Chi-squared test and multilinear regression were used.Results Compared with the control population,the household income of population in the diseased area was not significantly different statistically (x2 =7.052,P ＞ 0.05).But the differences in education level and chronic disease situation were statistically significant (x2 =35.727,9.810,all P ＜ 0.05).According to the frequency of the sudden death,from one to four,the total scores of the quality of life,the scores of the physiology domain,the scores of the psychological domain,the scores of the environmental domain and the scores of the social relations domain (1 time:54.30,13.74,14.43,11.21,14.91;2 times:54.75,13.86,14.65,11.12,15.10;3 times:52.40,13.21,13.76,11.00,14.41;4 times:49.21,12.15,12.54,9.87,14.64)were all lower than those of the control group (56.03,14.11,14.78,11.88 and 15.26),the differences between two groups were statistically significant (x2 =41.88,25.75,41.07,35.07,8.08,all P ＜ 0.05);the total scores and each domain score of the quality of life were negatively correlated with the frequency of sudden death (the multi-variables regression coefficient were as follows:-1.195,-0.341,-0.356,-0.314,and-0.185,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The quality of life of those who have lived in Yunnan unexplained sudden death area is associated with the outbreak frequency of sudden death.Following increasing of the outbreak frequency of Yunnan unexplained sudden death,the quality of life of the population living in Yunnan unexplained sudden death area has decreased.

Objective: To investigate the factors affecting postpartum stress urinary incontinence (PSUI) among lying-in women at ages of 35 years and older, so as to provide insights into PSUI prevention. Methods: Lying-in women at ages of 35 years and older receiving postpartum examinations were sampled using a convenient sampling method from Hangzhou Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital during the period from January 2021 to April 2022. Participants' demographic data, type of delivery, birth weight, diastasis recti abdominis, pelvic floor muscle strength injury, pelvic floor muscle training were collected, and the development of PSUI was evaluated using the International Consultation on Incontinence modular questionnaire. The factors affecting the development of PSUI were identified among lying-in women at ages of 35 years and older using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 230 questionnaires were allocated, and 226 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 98.26%. The lying-in women had a mean age of (37.30±2.11) years, and 75.66% had a pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) of 18.5 to 24.0 kg/m2. There were 29 women with postpartum BMI of 24.0 kg/m2 and greater (12.83%), 201 women with gestational weeks of 37 weeks and greater at delivery (88.94%), 105 women with vaginal delivery (46.46%), 20 women with neonatal birth weights of 4 000 g and higher (8.85%), 149 women with diastasis recti abdominis (65.93%), 154 women with pelvic floor muscle strength injury (68.14%). The prevalence of PSUI was 25.22% among the study subjects. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that vaginal delivery (OR=4.061, 95%CI: 2.124-7.763), postpartum BMI of 24 kg/m2 and higher (OR=1.903, 95%CI: 1.275-3.288), neonatal birth weight of 4 000 g and higher (OR=2.108, 95%CI: 1.420-4.135), diastasis recti abdominis (OR=1.487, 95%CI: 1.110-2.169) and pelvic floor muscle strength injury (OR=2.924, 95%CI: 1.726-4.803) were risk factors for PSUI among lying-in women at ages of 35 years and older, and pelvic floor muscle training was a protective factor for PSUI among lying-in women at ages of 35 years and older (OR=0.410, 95%CI: 0.216-0.780). Conclusions The development of PSUI correlates with the type of delivery, postpartum BMI, neonatal birth weight, diastasis recti abdominis and pelvic floor muscle strength injury among lying-in women. Reasonable weight control and active pelvic floor muscle training may facilitate the prevention of PSUI.

Objective To explore the correlations between the social support and the quality of life to them who live in Yunnan sudden unexplained death ward,and provide a scientific basis for taking effective measures to improve the people' s quality of life in the ward.Methods Using the cross-sectional household survey to collect the information of the inhabitants on social support and quality of life by the Social Support Scale,and the WHOQOL-brief Scale.Results The total score of social support,scores of subjective support,objective support in Yunnan sudden death ward ((40.85±8.34),(9.58±3.58),(23.86±4.87)) were lower than those of the control group in the same dimension ((41.82±7.12),(10.47±3.26),(24.51±4.68)) (all P＜0.05).But the score of social support utility in Yunnan sudden death ward (7.41±2.67)was no significant difference between the two groups (6.84±2.56,P＞0.05).After using multiple linear regression to control other confounding factors,such as house-hold income per capita,scores of social support,subjective support,objective support and social support utility were positively correlated with the score of quality of life in Yunnan sudden death ward (the correlation coefficient between the scores of social support and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.30,0.11,0.29,0.28,0.36;the correlation coefficient between the scores of objective support and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.15,0.05,0.13,0.14,0.19;the correlation coefficient between the scores of subjective social support and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.18,0.06,0.21,0.23; the correlation coefficient between the scores of social support utility and the dimensions related to the quality of life were 0.11,0.05,0.10,0.09,0.11 (all P＜0.05).Conclusions The people who live in Yunnan sudden death ward get less social support and social support utility is low,which cause the worse quality of their life.To make this situation better,more social support is necessary to enhance the utilization.

Objective Both underuse and overuse of anticoagulant therapy may lead to severe adverse effects. Emerging portable monitering devices, which provides reliable and accurate measurements, were reported to be potential alternatives to tra-ditional monitering recta-analysis regimens. This study was intended to evaluate the effects of serf-monitoring or serf-management (self-testing and serf-dosing) of anticoagulant as compared with that of traditional monitoring. Methods Relevant trials reported before October 2008 were identified in a number of electronic database and analyzed with software RevMan 4.2. The primary out-comes included death from any cause, major bleeding event, thromboembolic event and the proportion of patients whose interna-tional normalized ratio (INR) were within the therapeutic range. Results Seventeen RCT of serf-monitoring were identified.Pooled estimates revealed significant reductions in the thromboembolic events (odds ratio 0.46, 95% CI0.33 -0.64), all-cause mortality (0.61,0.40 -0.93), and major haemorrhage (0.80, 0.58 - 1.10) with self-monitoring as comparing with traditional monitoring. No difference was noted in minor haemorrhage. 15 trials reported improvements in the mean proportion of patients whose INR were within target range. Conclusion Self-management regimen is superior to traditional monitoring in the outcomes of oral anticoagulation. Patients capable of self-monitoring and serf-adjusting have fewer thromboembolic events and lower mortali-ty than those undergoing self-monitoring alone. However, self-monitoring requires education and training for patients.

Objective To investigate the distribution characteristics of pathogens isolated fromcerebrospinal fluid of neurosurgical patients with intracranial infection following open craniotomy and thetherapeutic effect influenced by these pathogens,in order to give a reference to the clinical treatmentmeasures.Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the pathogen distribution and therapeuticeffect of 43 patients with intracranial infection and positive cerebrospinal fluid cultures after open cranioto-my from May 2007 to May 2013.Cerebrospinal fluid was cleared using the intraventricular catheter orlumbar catheter combined with intraventricular (ventricular irrigation) or intraspinal (intrathecalirrigation) injection of antibacterial agents.Results To test bacteria in cerebrospinal fluid pathogencultures,34 cases were infected with single strain (26 Gram-positive bacteria and 8 Gram-negativebacteria) and 9 cases had mixed infection with multiple strains.Fifty-two pathogen strains were isolated,including 32 (62％) Gram-positive bacteria,18 (35％) Gram-negative bacteria,2 (4％) fungi.A totalof 29 cases were cured (67％),7 improved (16％),and 7 ineffective (16％).Conclusions Cere-brospinal fluid pathogen infection is primarily Gram-positive bacterial infection,usually staphylococcusepidermidis and staphylococcus aureus.Gram-negative pathogens are acinetobacter,klebsiella,andpseudomonas aeruginosa.Ventriculoperitoneal shunting surgery and craniocerebral surgery are often asso-ciated with mixed infection of pathogens.Ventricular irrigation allows better results than intrathecal irriga-tion.Indications of intrathecal irrigation treatment used to control intracranial infection after ventriculoper-itoneal shunting surgery and craniocerebral surgery should be strictly performed.

objective To compare cardiac function early after cardiac valve replacement with and without atrial fibrillation radiofrequency ablation(RFA).Methods Thirty-eight patients who underwent RFA Cox-Maze Ⅳ procedure combined with rheumatic valve replacement were discharged as cured from March 2007 to August 2009 (RFA group). Their postoperative recovery time, troponin T (cTnT) and ultrasonic cardiogram data were compared with those of 38 patients with atrial fibrillation matchad for age,sex, preoperative NYHA class and types of rheumatic valve replacement (control group). Results Although the cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamping time of RFA group were longer [( 152.8 ± 46.1 ),(91.0 ± 26.1 ) min] than those of control group [( 104.7 ± 40.8), (68.0 ± 30.3) min] (P ＜ 0.01 ), the postoperative recovery time and perioperative changes of LVEF of both groups were similar. Compared with control group, the RFA group's postoperative elevated cTnT was more marked [( 1.8 ± 0.6) μ g/L vs.(0.8 ±0.4) μg/L],their left atrial diameters was generally decreased (P＜0.05). Among them who underwent combined aortic and mitral valve replacement had increased posterior wall thickness of left ventricle and decreased fractional shortening. Conclusions Compared to patients having simple valve replacement, those undergoing valve replacement with RFA Cox-Maze Ⅳ procedure have generally better recovery of cardiac function early after operation, may have more potential threaten, and more attention should be paied to their perioperative myocardial preservation and preventive maintenance of cardiac function.
