Objective To analyze factors affecting quality of life (QOL)in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB),and provide reference for improving QOL of patients. Methods The MOS 36-item short form health sur-vey (SF-36)was adopted to survey QOL of patients with CHB,Morisky medication adherence scale was used to measure patients'adherence to medication,factors affecting QOL of patients with CHB were analyzed. Results Of 357 CHB patients,271(75.91% )were married,107(29.97% )received college or above education,163(45.66% ) patients'average household monthly income were ¥ 2000-¥ 5000,138(38.66% )patients'family members were also with CHB,198 (55.46% )patients smoked,150 (42.02% )drank. The average score of CHB patients' adherence to medication was (2.15±1.29). Factors affecting QOL in patients with CHB were age,education level, duration of disease,whether or not hospitalized,whether or not drink,as well as adherence to medication. Age, drink,and duration of hepatitis B,and previous hospitalization were negative factors affecting QOL in patients with CHB,education level and adherence to medication were positive factors affecting QOL in patients with CHB. Conclusion Strengthening CHB patients'understanding on disease and improving their medication adherence can help them to improve QOL.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the application of endoscopic nasal lateral wall dissection in lesions of the maxillary sinus.
METHOD:
Ten hospitalized patients with the maxillary sinus lesions were treated with the endoscopic nasal lateral wall dissection.
RESULT:
All 10 patients were unilateral invasion. Among them, 7 cases were inverted papilloma, 2 cases were recurrent antrochoanal polyps, 1 case was sinusal tooth. The tumors and antrochoanal polyps originated from the every part of the maxillary sinus wall during operation, especially from the anterior and media wall. During 10-62 months follow-up,epithelization of nasal occured and the shape of inferior turbinate was well. All of them had no epiphora.
CONCLUSION
Endoscopic nasal lateral wall dissection can remain the function of nasal lacrimal duct and nasal cavity,and may provide a new minimally invasive approach for complete resection of lesions of nasal cavity and the maxillary sinus.
