Objective To investigate the effects of mindfulness behavior training on mood states and quality of life in old patients post fixation for hip fracture. Methods Patients were randomly divided into experiment group (n=30) and control group (n=30). The control group received routine rehabilitation, while the experiment group received mindfulness practice therapy in addition. They were evaluated with Profile of Mood States (POMS), Short Form of Health Survey (SF-36), and Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) before and 5 weeks after treatment. Results There was no difference in the scores of POMS, MAAS and SF-36 before treatment (P>0.05). The scores of MAAS and SF-36, the subscores of tension-anxiety, depression-dejection, fatigue-inertia and vigor-activity of POMS improved more in the experiment group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Mindfulness behavior training can improve the mood state and quality of life of old patients post fixation for hip fracture.

Objective To investigate the effects of mindfulness behavior training on emotional disorder and immunological function in elderly patients after hip fracture fixation surgery.Methods Sixty elderly patients with fixed hip fracture by operation were randomly divided into a training group and a control group with 30 cases in each group.The training group received mindfulness behavior training in addition to routine rehabilitation training,while the control group only received routine rehabilitation training.The mindfulness behavior training was administered 90 min for once a week,lasting for 5 weeks.The emotional disorder was assessed with the profile of mood states (POMS),and the immune system function were evaluated by the number of CD3 + 、CD4 + 、CD8 + in T cell subgroup before and after 5 weeks of training.Results Before training,there was no significant difference in scores of POMS and the cells number of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 + (P ＞ 0.05) between the two groups.After treatment,scores of POMS including tension-anxiety (13.14 ± 3.36 vs 15.90 ± 4.28),depression-dejection (18.10 ± 6.24 vs 20.06 ± 5.42),fatigue-inertia (16.53 ± 3.50 vs 18.98 ± 4.88),vgor-activity (26.68 ± 5.22 vs 22.43 ± 5.20) (P ＜ 0.05),the level of mindfulness practice(58.00 ± 4.78 vs 54.00 ± 4.89) and the cells number of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 + (75.75 ± 5.40vs 69.91 ± 4.42 ;39.54 ± 3.29 vs 34.44 ± 4.21 ; 39.82 ± 3.55 vs 36.82 ± 3.55) in experimental group improved more than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Mindfulness behavior training can improve the patients' mood state and have positive promotion on immunological function.

Objective To test the hypothesis that isoflurane-preconditioning (ISO-P) provides added protection of myocardium with hypothermia against ischemia-reperfusion injury through KATP channels. Methods Thirty-two SD rats of both sexes weighing 230-270 g were studied. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal ketamine 100 mg?kg-1 and heparinized. Chest was opened and heart was immediately removed and perfused in a Langendorff apparatus with oxygenated (95% O2, 5% CO2) Krebs-Hensleit buffer (KHB) for 50 min,followed by 150 min of hypothermic-ischemia (perfusion was suspended and heart was immersed in 17℃ KHB) and 60 min of normothermic reperfusion (heart was again reperfused with 37.7℃ KHB and immersed in 37.7℃ KHB) (I/R). The animals were randomly divided into 4 groups of 8 animals:(l) control group; (2) ISO-P group; (3) ISO-P + GLB group and (4) ISO-P + 5-HD group. The control group received no pretreatment before I/R. In ISO-P group the heart was perfused with KHB gassed with 1% isoflurane for 15 min followed by 15 min wash-out before I/R. In group 3 and 4 the heart was perfused with KHB containing glibenclamide 20?mol?L-1 (group 3) or 5-hydroxydecanoate 150?mol ?L-1 (group 4) in addition to 1% isoflurane before I/R. Cardiac function was measured with a fluid filled latex balloon inserted in left ventricle (LVSP, LVDP, LVEDP, dp/dtmax, dp/dtmin). During hypothermic ischemia left ventricle pressure (LVP),S-time (the interval between the beginning of ischemia to the time point when LVP increased by 1 mm Hg from the baseline pressure) and C-time (the interval between the beginning of ischemia to the time point when LVP was lmmHg below the plateau pressure) were measured. Other criteria included coronary flow (CF),infarct size and creatine kinase.Results (l) S-time and C-time were negatively correlated with infarct size.(2)In ISO-P group (group 2) S-time and C-time were significantly longer during ischemia; LVDP and LVDP x HR were significantly higher during normothermic reperfusion and infarct size was significantly smaller than those in control group (groupl) (P

Objective To discuss the curative effect of minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) in treatment of comminuted fracture of metaphyseal tibia. Methods The study involved 38 patients with comminuted fracture of metaphyseal tibia treated by indirect reduction and MIPPO. Results All patients were followed up for 10-30 months (average 18.6 months), which showed one stage union in all patients. The time for bony union was 4.2-7.8 months (mean 5.4 months). The operation lasted for 50-130 minutes (average 75 minutes). According to Johner-Wruhs system, the outcome was excellent in 26 patients, good in 10 and fair in two, with satisfactory rate of 95%. Conclusion MIPPO takes advantages of minor trauma, few complication, simple manipulation, high success rate and satisfactory recovery of joint function recovery and bony union, and hence is a safe and effective treatment for comminuted fracture of metaphyseal tibia.

Objective To explore the effect of liraglutide on pressure?overload chronic heart failure in rats and related mechanisms. Methods Totally 30 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, heart failure group and liraglutide group. The animals were anaesthetized and a Millar pressure volume conductance catheter SPR?838 ) was inserted through right carotid artery into LV to measure pressure?volume ( P?V ) loop. Body and organ weight were measured. After the end of intervention, the rats were anesthetized, and abdominal aortic blood taken from the upper serum after centrifugation. Kit method was used to measure superoxide dismutase (SOD), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), malondialdehyde ( MDA) . Results Compared with those of the sham operation group, there was a increase in absolute heart weight and (P < 0?05). During the P?V loop analyses, We found that left ventricular (LV) end?systolic volume, end?diastolic volume, end?systolic pressure, end?diastolic pressure and maximum pressure were all remarkablely lower in liraglutide group than HF group in rats ( P < 0?05 ) . Peak rate of pressure rise ( dP/dt max ) , peak rate of pressure decline ( -dP/dt min) , ejection fraction and Maximum Power were increased in liraglutide group comparable by HF group (P < 0?05). SOD activity was significantly increased and BNP concentration was significantly decreased in liraglutide group compared to HF group (P < 0?05). Conclusions These results show that liraglutide protects pressure?overload rat heart from failure possibly through reducing oxidation.

Objective To investigate the physiological characteristics and the association with low prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Keriyans,a nomadic tribe,in the Taklimakan Desert.Methods An epidemiological survey focusing on diet and standardized physical examinations were made in a randomly selected natural population of 508 Keriyans individuals residing in the Taklimakan desert.In addition,237 of Uyghur subjects from Yutian county were enrolled as controls.Results Between these two populations,statistical significances were observed in body mass index (BMI) [(21.25 ± 3.10 vs 22.66 ± 4.18) kg/m2,P＜0.05],blood pressure (P＜0.01),triglyceride [TG,(0.98 ± 0.77 vs 1.50 ± 1.29) mmol/L,P＜0.01],total cholesterol [TC,(2.23 ± 1.02 vs 3.26 ± 0.85) mmol/L,P＜0.01],low density lipoprotein-cholesterol[LDL-C,(1.41 ± 0.68) mmol/L,P＜0.01],fasting blood glucose [(4.43 ± 1.19 vs 5.56 ± 1.39) mmol/L,P＜0.01],fat and salt intake (P＜0.05).The Keriyans had a low incidence of hypertension(9.94％ vs 29.11％,P＜0.01),raised blood cholesterol and diabetes mellitus(2.2％ vs 11.91％,P＜0.01) compared with the control group.The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 0.6％ (3/500) in Keriyans and 13.62％ (32/235) in the control group.The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Keriyans was much lower than that in the control group (P＜0.01).The caloric intake in keriyans group was lower tha than in the control group [(1 502.341 vs 2106.870) kcal,P ＜ 0.01].Conclusions The preliminary results showed that the physiological characteristics with low BMI,blood glucose,and the low levels of TG,TC,LDL-C,as well as they were inured to low salt loading,little smoking and no alcohol drinking,and natural living environment free from pollution,these factors might be associated with the low prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Keriyans.And their low calorie intake might be the most important factor of their low prevalence of metabolic syndrome.

Objective To analyze the electrocardiography ( ECG ) data of pressure overload ?induced chronic heart failure rats. Methods Totally 20 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group and heart failure group. Heart failure rats were induced by abdominal aorta constriction. Echocardiogram measurement demonstrated the occurrence of cardiac function. Two lead ECG parameters of limb a was measured and statistically analyzed. Results Ten weeks after operation, there was a increase in heart rate, P amplitude, P duration and R amplitude comparing by those of the sham operation group (P < 0?05). ECG showed a significant and ubiquitous J point elevation (P < 0?05), with ST segment notable depression ( P < 0?05 ) . Conclusions ECG in pressure?overload chronicity heart failure rats exhibits obviously characteristic features. ECG is an useful tool for objective and accurate assessment of cardiac function in rats.

Objective To assess the ability of pixel-based quantitative evaluation of CT values in differentiating benign and malignant cystic-solid ovarian tumors.Methods CT images of 41 cystic-solid ovarian lesions from 39 patients were reviewed,with 27 benign and 14 malignant confirmed by post-operation pathology or follow-up.Regions of interest (ROIs) were drawn along edges of tumors on all slices of contrast-enhanced images with ImageJ software.CT values of each pixel were extracted.CT values of 20,25,30,35 and 40 HU were used respectively as the threshold to divide cystic and solid components.Solid proportion,the mean and median CT values of solid component were calculated and compared between benign and malignant groups.Results Mean CT values of solid components were all higher in malignant than in benign ovarian masses under all the threshold values (P<0.05).For median CT values, the same trend existed under the threshold of 20,25,35 and 40 HU (P<0.05).For the solid proportion,difference was found only under the 40 HU threshold, with lower value in malignant group (0.67±0.25) than in benign group (0.47±0.31).ROC curves were drawn to differentiate benign and malignant lesions.The highest AUC was obtained by using the mean CT value of solid components defined by 40 HU threshold (AUC=0.735).Conclusion Pixel-based quantitative evaluation on CT images could help to define cystic and solid components of ovarian masses, with 40 HU to be an optimal threshold.Cystic-to-solid proportion and CT value of solid components derived from whole lesion can help to differentiate benign or malignant lesions.
