Objective To explore the correlation between cognitive ability and motor ability in stroke patients.Methods 30 stroke patients were assessed with the 3 m Timed Up and Go Test (TUG). The anticipated time by patients and the actual time were recorded, and their difference was caculated, named as the cognitive error. They were also assessed with Trail Making Test-Part A (TMT-A). The actual time of TUG, cognitive error and the time of TMT-A was compared among different groups of Brunnstrom stage of lower limb, and their correlation was analyzed. Results There was a significant difference between the actual time of TUG between Brunnstrom stage Ⅲ and Ⅴ (F=4.600, P<0.05). There was positive correlation between actual time of TUG and cognitive error(r=0.844, P<0.01), time of TMT-A and cognitive error(r=0.508, P<0.01), time of TMT-A and actual time of TUG (r=0.414, P<0.05). Conclusion Motor ability of stroke patients can be influenced by deficient attention and motor cognition.

Objective To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of relinqing pharmaceutical preparations for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infection(UTI). Methods The genitourinary infection, urinary tract infection, pyelonephritis, cystitis, stranguria and urethritis were used as key words to search at CNKI,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Wan Fang and Cochrane Library Databases up to April 2015. Data of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing treatments using relinqing were included in this study. The quality of the literature was evaluated by the method of Cochrane handbook 5.1.0. Data extraction was carried out independently by two authors. RevMan 5.2 software was used for Meta-analysis. Results Five RCTs were included that involved a total of 471 uncomplicated UTIs. Analysis of four studies showed a higher rates of effectiveness for uncomplicated UTI in the treatment with relinqing plus antibiotics than those of antibiotics alone [RR and 95%CI:1.15 (1.08-1.23), P<0.001]. Analysis of two studies showed a higher rates of bacterial clearance for uncomplicated UTI in the treatment with relinqing plus antibiotics than those of antibiotics alone [RR and 95% CI: 4.04 (1.78-9.16)]. Conclusion Data from five small studies suggest that relinqing as an independent intervention or in conjunction with antibiotics may be beneficial for treating uncomplicated UTIs. However, the small number and poor quality of the included studies meant that it is not possible to formulate robust conclusion on the use of relinqing for uncomplicated UTI either alone or as an adjunct to antibiotics.

Objective To evaluate the correlation of inflammatory severity between appendiceal ori-fice inflammation(AOI)and ulcerative colitis(UC). Methods A retrospective analysis of the patients who were diagnosed as UC was conducted to investigate the correlation of the severity of inflammation between AOI and UC by linear trend test. Results The detective rate of UC during the above period was 2. 3%(991/ 42 928),with the patient number of 991.Appendiceal orifice observation did not perform in 45 cases due to patients reasons. In 946 patients,260 cases were diagnosed as having AOI,which accounted for 27. 5%of the total cases examined.AOI positive rates were significantly different between groups based on endoscopic severity standard(χ2 = 27. 39,P<0. 05),which was similar in moderate and severe group[30. 2%(109/ 361) VS 29. 8%(147/ 493),P>0. 0125],both significantly higher than that in mild group[4. 3%(4/ 92),P<0. 0125]. In linear regression analysis,regression coefficient was 0. 32,χ2return = 29. 48(P<0. 05)and χ 2partial =31. 66(P<0. 05),which proved a positive correlation between the two drawn existed but not a simple linear relationship. Conclusion AOI is a sign in some active UC patients. Its severity of inflammation can reflect the degree of inflammation in UC,which may offer a terminal point when treating a slice of UC individuals and giving a signal of its relapse.
