Objective Systemic analysis the effect of the application of continuity nursing in community diabetes.Methods Retrieve documents from the PubMed,Cochrane Library,EMBASE,Science Direct,CBM,WANFANG Data and CNKI.Dating from the dates of establishment to May,2014.Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on continuity of patient care for patients with diabetes were included.Two reviewers independently screened the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,extracted the data and assessed the quality of the included studies,and then meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.1 software.Results 5 RCTs (156 cases with diabetes) were involved into this Meta-analysis.The experimental group was superior to the control group in FBG,2h PBG,HbA1c and the level of treatment compliance,with statistically significant differences,P<0.05.The descriptive analysis showed that the differences in the score of diabetes knowledge and the quality of life were statistically significant,P<0.05,because the data could not be converted.Conclusions The continuity nursing can improve the compliance and the quality of life of community diabetes,ameliorate certain biochemical indicators.Study of large sample and RCTs should be take because of the existence of some restraining factors.

Objective To investigate the association of chlamydia pneumoniae infection with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).MethodsSerum samples were obtained from 33 AS patients and 22 healthy controls.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to mearsure serum anti-Chlamydia pneumoniae antibodies (IgM/IgG),while immunofluorescence assay (IFA) was used to detect Chlamydia pneumoniae LPS antigen,and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify Chlamydia pneumoniae DNA in peripheral blood cells. Immunohistochemistical technique was applied to examine Chlamydia pneumoniae LPS antigen in synovial tissue from another 9 AS patients who received total hip replacement and 13 patients with comminuted femoral fractures.ResultsThe positive rates of Chlamydia pneumoniae IgM,LPS antigen and chlamydia pneumoniae DNA were higher in AS patients than those in healthy controls (78.8% vs 22.7%,x2 =16.867,P =0.000; 66.7% vs 31.8%,x2 =6.431,P =0.011; 33.3% vs 9.1%,x2 =4.298,P =0.038).Chlamydia pneumoniae DNA positive rate was correlated with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels (Z =-2.774 and -2.829,P =0.004).In synovial tissues,chlamydial LPS-containing inflammatory cells were observed in 77.8%(7/9) AS patients,while those in fracture patients was 30.8% ( 4/13 ) ( P =0.08 ).Conclusion Chlamydia pneumoniae infection is common in blood circulation and joint cavity of AS patients and may be associated with the pathogenesis of AS.

Objective To summarize our experience with surgical management of renal neoplasm involving inferoir veno cava.Methods We review the data of 115 patients,including 74 male patients and 41 female patients,with renal neoplasm involving venous system between March 1993 and December 2015.The mean age was 52 years old,ranging 22 to 77 years old.The tumor was found in right side in 77 cases and left side in 38 cases.There were 15 patients (13.0%) with renal vein thrombus,38 (33.1%) with infrahepatic thrombus,29 (25.2%) with low retrohepatic thrombus,20 (17.4%) with high retrohepatic thrombus,and 13 (11.3%) with supradiaphragmatic thrombus.The mean age was 52 years old,ranging 22 to 77 years old.The tumor was found in right side in 77 cases and left side in 38 cases.All patients accepted the radical nephrectomy.Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS),and cancer special survival (CSS) in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) estimated by Kaplan-Meier method.Secondary outcome included operative and oncological features,past-operative complications and hospital mortality.Cox proportional hazard model was used to univariate and multivariate analysis for risk factor impacting on OS of RCC patients.Results Complete resections of renal neoplasm with tumor thrombus were achieved in 113 patients (98.3%),2 patients died intraoperatively due to the dropping of thrombus.Postoperative complication rate was 16.8%.Hospital mortality was 2.6%.Mean follow-up interval was 48 months.OS rates at 5-,and 10-year in RCC patients were 66.5%,and 61.8%,respectively.Metastasis was an independent risk factor affecting on OS (P =0.000).However,the level of thrombus was not an risk factor affecting the prognosis.Conclusions Radical resection of renal tumor and caval thrombus is an effective treatment for prolonging survival in patients with RCC extending into venous system.Retrohepatic caval tumor thrombus below or above the main hepatic vein should be dichotomized and managed respectively with diverse techniques.Metastatic rather than the level of thrombus was a risk factor impacting on RCC patient survival.
