Objective To explore the correlations of expressions of gastric mucosa water channel aquaporin AQP3 and AQP4 and different gastritis types. Methods The gastric mucosa was mounted under gastroscope. The types of gastric mucosa pathology and activity were tested by the common pathohistology. The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 were determined by immunohistology. Results The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 of chronic superficial gastritis were significantly higher than those in the non-gastritis group and chronic atrophic gastritis group (P < 0.01), especially in the activity period of chronic superficial gastritis. The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 of chronic atrophic gastritis group were reduced when compared to those in the non-gastritis group, in spite of no statistical differences between them. While compared to the non-gastritis group , the expression of AQP3 of chronic atrophic gastritis group during the active stage was remarkably decreased (P < 0.05). Conclusion The expressions of AQP3 and AQP4 of gastric mucosa in chronic gastritis in various pathological types are different. AQP3 and AQP4 may be the targeted point , which could be used for the differential diagnosis and treatment of chronic gastritis of different pathological types.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) or endoscopic retro-grade cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) combined with la-paroscopic treatment of gallbladder and common bile duct stones. Methods 80 patients suffered cholecystolithiasis with choledocholithiasis were selected from June 2013 to June 2015. According to surgical method, patients were di-vided into EST + LC group (38 cases) and LCBDE + LC + ERCP group (42 cases). Clinical data, treatment effects, postoperative complications rate related indicators of liver function were compared between the two groups. Results The maximum diameter of stones, diameter of common bile duct and the number of stones in LCBDE + LC + ERCP group were significantly longer and larger than EST + LC group, the differences were statistically significant ( <0.05). Compared with EST + LC group, single success rate of ERCP + LC + LCBDE group was higher, operative time was shorter, but its operation cost was higher, the differences were statistically significant ( < 0.05). The suc-cess rate, rate of conversion to laparotomy and hospital stay between the two groups showed no significant difference ( > 0.05). Postoperative complication rate of ERCP + LC + LCBDE was 21.42 %(9/42), and postoperative compli-cation rate of EST+ LC was 26.32 % (9/42), the difference between the two groups were not clear ( > 0.05). The serum direct bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in the two groups were increased slightly after one day of operation, and those indexes returned to normal levels after three days of operation. Conclusion The operation methods of LCBDE+LC+ERCP and EST+ LC are both effective treatment for compli-cated choledocholithiasis. The success rate of LCBDE+LC+ERCP is higher, the operative time is shorter, which is good for larger stones.

Objective · To survey the willingness to enroll in nursing homes among the elders in Shanghai and explore its predictors. Methods · A field survey was performed to collect data from 641 elders aged 60 years old and above in six community health centers in Shanghai. Sociodemographic variables, willingness to use nursing home, perceived barriers and perceived benefits were measured. Results · The questionnaire is with good structural validity and good intrinsic reliability. KMO index, P value of Bartlett's test of sphericity, and the range of Cronbach's α coefficients were 0.862, 0.000,and 0.739-0.824, respectively. Among the respondents, 46% were willing to enroll in a nursing home in this survey. Age had significant influence on their willingness (P=0.045). After adjusting for age, the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that shame (OR=0.76, 95% CI=0.62-0.94), adaptability (OR=0.61, 95% CI=0.50-0.74) and perceived benefits (OR=1.63, 95% CI=1.32-2.03) were related to willingness (P<0.05).Conclusion · Elders in Shanghai have a relatively high level of willingness to enroll in nursing homes, especially the elders aged from 60 to 69. Shame and adaptability of elders, and the services provided by nursing homes were the predictors of the elders' willingness.

Objective To observe the effects of dual-task motor training on motor and balance function for stroke patients. Methods From January, 2016 to June, 2017, 30 patients with stroke were assigned randomly into control group (n = 15) and treatment group (n = 15). Both groups accepted routine physical therapy, the control group accepted anti-gravity treadmill training, while the treatment group accepted dual-task training with anti-gravity treadmill, for four weeks. They were measured with balance training and evaluation system, and assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-lower extremity (FMA-L), Berg Balance Scale (BBS) and modified Barthel Index (MBI), before and after treatment. Results The range of swaying on X axial (Rx) and Y axial (Ry), as well as rectangle area (RecArea) decreased after treatment in the treatment group (t > 4.719, P < 0.001), while RecArea decreased in the control group (t = 5.069, P < 0.001). Ry and RecArea were less in the treatment group than in the control group (t > 2.288, P < 0.05). The scores of FMA-L, BBS and MBI improved after treatment in both groups (t > 7.316, P < 0.001), and improved more in the treatment group than in the control group (t > 2.322, P < 0.05). Conclusion The dual-task training via anti-gravity treadmill may improve motor and balance function in stroke patients, and promote the activities of daily living.
