ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship between pancreatic cancer (PC) and diabetes mellitus (DM),and the clinical and pathological features of pancreatic cancer in patients with DM.MethodsFrom January,2008 to December,2010,151 patients with PC and 195 comparable patients without PC were enrolled in a case-control study to analyze the relationship between PC and DM.ResultsThe OR was 5.91 (95% CI 3.03-8.00,P<0.05) in PC patients with DM for less than 2 years,and 1.308 (95% CI 0.37-4.60,P>0.05) in patients with DM for 2 to 5 years,and 1.16(95% CI 0.44-3.19,P>0.05) for patients with DM for more than 5 years.There was no significant difference between PC patients with and without DM in gender,age,body-mass index (BMD,obstructive jaundice,tumour location and tumour metastases (P>0.05).ConclusionsThere was a significant correlation between PC and DM.De novo DM may be a clinical manifestation in patients with PC.PC patients with concurrent DM have no particular clinical and pathological features.

Objective To explore the Kano model analysis in the application of midwife outpatient service quality management. Methods Kano questionnaire was consisted of 24 items, including five parts, environment facilities, service evaluation, service technology, the team service, delivery service′quality. Using the Kano model analysis, the impact factors of the midwife outpatient service quality in five different quality attributes were determined. It included property and had the opposite answer to the question, charisma, essential properties and one property. Results By identifing the quality index classification of the pregnant women with satisfactory service quality to midwife outpatient service, attributable to a property were 1,2,3,4,8,9,10,14,20,21;attributable to mandatory attributes were 13, belonging to the charm of the property had 5,6,7,11,12,15,16,17,18,19,22,23,24. Midwives outpatient had most of charisma attribute, 54.2%(13/24) of the total;The second was one attribute, 41.7% (10/24) of the total. The technology level of midwife was essential attribute. Conclusions Kano mode analysis technology will be introduced to the midwife outpatient service quality management to provide decision reference for improving the quality of the hospital management level, improve maternal satisfaction, improve the obstetric operation efficiency.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of subcutaneousimmunotherapy(SCIT) on levels of the serum human beta defensin-2 in children with allergic rhinitis. METHODS 30 cases of children with allergic rhinitis who were treated by SIT were selected as the treatment group, 20 cases of healthy children as the control group. Serum HBD-2 concentration of the control group was tested. Serum HBD-2 concentration of the treatment group was tested at three different time points: before SCIT, half a year after SCIT and one year after SCIT. And total nasal symptom scores(TNSS) and medication scores were recorded at each time point. RESULTS The serum HBD-2 concentration of the control group, that of the treatment group before SIT, half a year after SIT and one year after SIT were 4.62[4.08; 4.87], 3.74[3.37; 4.61], 4.62[4.13; 5.54], 4.79[4.45;6.19]ng/ml. The HBD-2 concentration gradually increased after SCIT. The TNSS of the treatment group before SCIT, half a year after SCIT and one year after SCIT were 7.43±2.15, 4.17±2.16, 4.20±1.92, The medication scores of the treatment group before SCIT, half a year after SCIT and one year after SCIT were 1.25[0.75; 1.38], 0.25[0; 0.75, 0.25[0; 0.75].There was no correlation (all P>0.05) between the serum HBD-2 concentration and TNSS or medication scores of the treatment group. CONCLUSION The serum levels of HBD-2 in patients with allergic rhinitis were lower than those in normal persons. The specific immunotherapy raised the serum HBD-2 levels of allergic rhinitis patients.
