Objective To study cost-effectiveness of primary cerebral infarction patients. Methods The neural function of primary cerebral infarction patients was studied by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) with rank test and multiple regression analysis. Results After treatment in hospitals of different grades, no obvious difference was detected in the NIHSS score, but difference was found in therapy cost and therapy time; the NIHSS score and therapy time of primary cerebral infarction patients in different attack positions were obviously different, but therapy cost had no significant statistical difference. The NIHSS score of primary cerebral infarction patients with different treatments was obviously different, but therapy cost and therapy time was not. Conclusions Patients are advised to choose grade hospitals in nearby cities for treatment. Clinician are expected to choose low-cost treatment plan to relieve patients' economic burden.

Background:Nocturnal gastroesophageal reflux (nGER)is associated with severe complication of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD),such as esophagitis,esophageal stricture and Barrett's esophagus,and has certain effect on quality of life. Aims:To study the characteristics of nGER and its influencing factor in patients with GERD. Methods:GERD patients with typical reflux symptoms (heartburn or/ and regurgitation)and nGER confirmed by MII-pH monitoring were included. Effects of gender,age,BMI,DBI on nGER were analyzed. Results:In 130 patients with GERD,97 (74. 6%)had nGER. Of the 97 patients with nGER,only 18 (18. 6%)patients complained nocturnal heartburn or/ and regurgitation. During nocturnal period,female and elderly GERD patients had delayed bolus clearance time. Percentage of time with pH < 4 and acid reflux of GERD patients with BMI≥25 kg/ m2 were significantly higher than patients with normal BMI. Nocturnal acid reflux was much lower in patients with DBI≥2. 5 hours than patients with DBI < 2. 5 hours. The weakly acidic reflux could significantly decrease along with the getting longer of DBI. Conclusions:nGER is prevalent in GERD patients,and weakly acidic reflux is the leading type,however,only a small part of patients having nocturnal reflux symptom. The female and elderly GERD patients have delayed bolus clearance time during nocturnal period. BMI≥25 kg/m2 is associated with nGER. DBI≥2. 5 hours could significantly reduce acid reflux during nocturnal period. DBI should be as long as possible for reducing weakly acidic reflux.

Background:Functional dyspepsia (FD)with anxiety and gastric hypersensitivity is still one of the therapeutic difficulties in clinic. Gastrodin (Gas)may have dual effects of modulating gastric sensitivity and anxiety. Aims:To investigate the effect of Gas on gastric sensitivity and anxiety-like behavior in FD with anxiety-like gastric hypersensitivity in rats. Methods:Forty rats were randomly divided into control group,model group,buspirone group,low-dose Gas group and high-dose Gas group. Maternal separation,acute gastric irritation and restraint stress were sequentially performed to induce FD model with anxiety-like gastric hypersensitivity. At the 8th week,rats in control group and model group were intraperitoneally injected with 0. 9% NaCl solution 2. 0 mL/ kg,rats in buspirone group were given buspirone 3. 125 mg/kg,and rats in low- and high-dose Gas groups were given 62. 5,125. 0 mg/ kg Gas,respectively. The course was 7 days. Then elevated plus maze (EPM),open field test,abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR)and electromyography (EMG) were performed. Results:Compared with control group,EPM test showed that proportions of open arms entries and duration were significantly decreased (P < 0. 01);open field test showed that virtual central grids duration (P < 0. 05),number of virtual grids climbed and times of lifting were significantly decreased (P < 0. 01);when gastric balloon dilatation pressure was equal or greater than 40 mm Hg,AWR score,area under ROC curve (AUC)of EMG was significantly increased in model group (P < 0. 05). Compared with model group,above-mentioned indices in low- and high-dose Gas groups were significantly ameliorated (P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Gas could influence the gastric sensitivity and anxiety-like behavior of the brain-stomach axis regulated anxiety-like gastric hypersensitivity in FD rat model.
