The clinical symptoms of the patients in the control group were significantly longer than those in the experimental group, with statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion The effective rate about psychological intervention combined with milrinone on the treatment of the children with congenital heart disease complicated with severe pneumonia and heart failure is high, which is worthy of clinical application.

ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH).Methods A total of 738 male subjects were assigned to the non-BPH + non-metabolic syndrome (MS)group (group A),BPH + non-MS group (group B),MS + non-BPH group (group C),and BPH + MS group ( group D).Body mass index(BMI),systolic blood pressure ( SBP),diastolic blood pressure ( DBP),fasting blood glucose ( FBG ),total cholesterol ( TC ),triglyceride ( TG ),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C ),glycosylated alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ),serum creatinine,hemoglobin (HbAlc),and serum uric acid (UA) were measured.Results In comparison with group A,age,BMI,SBP,DBP,TG,TC,LDL-C and HbAlc of group B were significantly increased,although HDL-C was significantly reduced.Age,BMI,SBP,DBP,TG,TC,LDL-C,UA and HbAlc of group D were significantly higher than those of group C,while HDL-C was relatively lower.In multivariate logistic regression analysis,＞ 60 years [odds ratio (OR) =4.432,95％ confidence interval (CI) 1.331 to 14.759],overweight/obese ( OR =228.165,95％ CI 21.932 to 2373.724 ),hypertension ( OR =33.350,95％ CI 10.221 to 108.824),higher FBG ( OR =131.669,95％ CI 21.033 to 824.279 ),and higher TG ( OR =53.500,95％ CI 11.547 to 247.889 ) were independent risk factors of BPH with MS.Conclusion Our data suggest a close relationship between BPH and MS.Elderly,overweight/obesity,and higher blood pressure,TC or FBG might be the risk factors of BPH and MS.

Objective To investigate the prevalences of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and metabolic syndrome (MS) and to analyze the risk factors for benign prostatic hyperplasia and metabolic syndrome in the elderly.Methods A total of 490 elderly men undergoing health examination in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2010 were divided into BPH and MS group (n=246),MS group (n=55),BPH group (n=44),non-BPHandnon-MSgroup (control,n =145).Body height,body weight,body mass index (BMI),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were detected.Fasting blood glucose (FBG),serum total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),alanine a minotransferase (ALT),creatinine (CRE),glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c),serum uric acid (UA) and other indicators were measured.Results The prevalences of BPH and MS were increased with age (x 2=810.71,732.18,both P＜0.05).Age,BMI,blood pressure,the levels of FBG,TG,TC,LDL-C,UA and HbA1c were significantly higher in BPH and MS group than in control group (all P＜0.05),while HDL-C concentration was significantly lower in group BPH and MS than in control group (P＜0.05).Age was significantly higher in group BPH and MS than in MS group (P＜0.05).Age,BMI,blood pressure,levels of FBG and TG were significantly higher in group BPH and MS than in BPH group (all P＜0.05),while HDL-C concentration was significantly lower in group BPH and MS than in group C (P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age＞70 years,obesity,hypertension,high FBG,high TG,lower HDL-C were independent risk factors for BPH and MS (OR:2.947,4.470,4.790,11.589,27.850,0.391,respectively,all P＜ 0.05).Conclusions The prevalences of BPH and MS are gradually increased with ageing in elderly men.Age ＞ 70 years,obesity,hypertension,high fasting glucose,hypertriglyceridemia and lower HDL-C are the risk factors for BPH and MS.

Objective To detect the properties of new natural porcine ture bones ceramic(TBC) which were processed under different conditions. Methods Fresh porcine ribs were pretreated and divided into three groups: untreated group, deproteinization group and deproteinization and defat group. Then they were calcined under different temperature and duration to get TBC. The morphological features, constitutive components and mechanical properties were examined by scanning electron microscopy, X-rays diffraction analysis, energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX), mechanical assay and so on. Results All TBC possessed the natural porous network system of original bones. EDX showed that the all elements of TBC were Ca and P, the ratio of which was 1.72, and the major mineral composition of TBC was hydroxyapatite(HA). The TBC calcined at the higher than 900℃ temperature for 2 hours had comparative good mechanical strength, otherwise the mechanical strength was too low to act as scaffold materials. Conclusion Morphological features, constitutive components and mechanical properties of differently pretreated TBC were same. The TBC calcined at the temperature of higher than 900℃ for 2 hours had comparative good mechanical strength, and contained only HA with high crystallization. Befroe the TBC becoming an ideal scaffold material, more investigations will be necessary to detect its biocompatibility and biodegradability.
