This article was aimed to evaluate clinical efficacy of the pulmonary rehabilitation health education guidance mode. The CAT assessment tool was used for evaluation of stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) inpatients and outpatients in the Respiratory Department, Affiliated Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Xinjiang Medical University. A total of 80 stable COPD patients were randomized divided into the treatment group and control group. In the treatment group, stable COPD patients received pulmonary rehabilitation health education guidance. And then the quality of life was evaluated. The results showed that compared with the control group, after 48-week health education intervention, the CAT score and dyspnea index scale score of 40 patients in the treatment group were decreased with significant difference (P < 0.05). It was concluded that the guidance mode of pulmonary rehabilitation health education was conducive to improving the quality of life of pa-tients with COPD, decreasing the dyspnea index score, and improving exercise tolerance in patients to a certain extent. This pattern can be implemented in the optimization of future clinical practice and nursing.

This study was aimed to evaluate the number of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and quality of life with family pulmonary rehabilitation exercise. Randomized controlled method 584 was used in the study. The COPD patients in the stability drug treatment were divided into the treatment group and control group. The treatment group A was given health education and pulmonary rehabilitation training in the family. And the treatment group B was given health education and treatment of pulmonary rehabilitation training in the family with acupoint application therapy. Health education was given in the control group. Changes on the number of acute exacerbation of COPD and quality of life were observed. The intervention time was one year. The results showed that patients after one-year pulmonary rehabilitation exercise in the family, the acute exacerbation (AECOPD) times of treatment group A and group B were obviously decreased (P < 0.01) compared to pre-treatment. The OR value was (0.79, 2.02) and (0.59, 2.11), respectively. The quality of life of treatment group A and group B was obviously improved (P < 0.05). The OR value was (3.39, 10.11) and (4.23, 9.57), respectively. Compared to the control group, the quality of life in treatment group B was obviously improved (P < 0.05). The OR value was (0.59, 7.78). It was concluded that the pulmonary rehabilitation exercise in the family can decrease the number of AECOPD and improve the quality of life of patients, reduce the risk of COPD patients in the future. This method is worth popularizing in the clinical and community practice.

Objective To study the association of the serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(SICAM-1) and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(SVCAM-1) with metabolic syndrome(MS) and its components. Methods The MS was defined by criteria of the international diabetes federation. The levels of SICAM-1 ,SVCAM-1,plasma glucose,insulin,lipids,uric acid, glycosylated haemoglobin A(1C), and blood viscosity were measured. Results The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 were significantly higher in subjects with MS and its components than in those without them. The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 were correlated positively with disorder number of BMI, WHR, SBP, DBP,FPG, 2 hour plasma glucose, triglyceride, uric acid, HbA1c, blood viscosity and HOMA-IR,and negatively with high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusions The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 rise with the increase of the number of MS components. Endothelial dysfunction might participate in the occurrence and development of MS.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Pingchuan cataplasm combined with hyperthermia therapy for stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with qi deficiency syndrome of both lung and spleen. Methods Sixty patients of stable COPD with TCM syndrome of qi deficiency of both lung and spleen were selected and randomized into treatment group and control group, 30 cases in each group. Based on conventional treatment, the treatment group was treated by Pingchuan cataplasm combined with hyperthermia, and the control group was given analog stick applicator without additional heat treatment. After 6 weeks of treatment, the TCM symptom score and the time of the first exacerbation after treatment were observed. Results Compared with the control group, Pingchuan cataplasm can reduce the patients’ TCM symptom score (F=9.843, P=0.003), and extend the interval of acute exacerbation after treatment (F=4.451, P=0.040). Conclusion Pingchuan cataplasm combined with hyperthermia applicator can improve symptoms and reduce the frequency of acute exacerbation, thus can treat and prevent the acute exacerbation of COPD.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of standard or reduced doses of bortezomib combined with adriamycin and dexamethasone in patients with multiple myeloma (MM).Methods Fifty-two newly diagnosed,refractory and relapsed patients received bortezomib [1.3 mg/m2 (standard dose group,26 patients) or 1.0-1.1 mg/m2 (reduced dose group,26 patients) on day 1st,4th,8th and 11 th],and adriamycin (10 mg/m2) plus dexamethasone (40 mg/d) on day 1 st-4th,and were treated for 1-6 courses.Adverse events were graded and compared.Results After treatment,the overall response rate of standard dose group [80.8％(21/26)] and reduced dose group [88.5％(23/26)] had no significant difference (P =0.739).The rate of neutropenia and thrombocytopenia in two groups had no significant difference[23.1％(6/26) vs.15.4％(4/26),P=0.281 ; 11.5％(3/26) vs.7.7％(2/26),P=0.620].The rate of Ⅲ-Ⅳ grade peripheral nerve disease,herpes zoster,lack of power and abdominal distension in standard dose group were significantly higher than those in reduced dose group [15.4％(4/26) vs.3.8％(1/26),P =0.038;26.9％(7/26) vs.7.7％(2/26),P =0.029;38.5％(10/26) vs.15.4％(4/26),P=0.045; 19.2％(5/26)vs.3.8％ (1/26),P =0.028].Conclusion Reduced dose of bortezomib appears to result in similar overall response rate,but better tolerance and safety compared with standard dose.
