Objective Anovel index based on frequency-domain analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) was tested on patients with reduced left ventricular systolic function.This index,namely VHFI,was defined as the very high frequency (VHF) component of the power spectrum normalized to represent its relative value in proportion to the total power minus the very low frequency component.Methods Patients (n=130) were divided into a study group,consisting 66 patients with decreased left ventricular systolic function,and a control group,consisting 64 patients with normal heart structure and function and without severe coronary artery stenosis (＜50%).Results VHFI in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (19.17±13.35 vs 11.37±10.77,P＜0.001).Cardiac events occurred in 18 patients during follow-up (33.34±3.26 months).Defining the positive test as VHFI =15 and negative test as VHFI ＜15,achieved a sensitivity of 57.58% and a specificity of 78.13% for predicting decreased left ventricular systolic function,and achieved a sensitivity of 66.67% and a specificity of 64.29% for predicting cardiac events.Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that positive VHFI test was an independent variable in predictive cardiac events.Conclusions The results suggest that VHFI is a useful tool for quick evaluation of left ventricular systolic function and prediction of prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of self-made Yishen Antai Decoction combined with progesterone in the treatment of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) and the effect on pregnancy outcomes and blocking antibodies (BA). Methods 100 cases of patients with RSA were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, 50 cases in each group. The control group was treated with progesterone and on the basis, the observation group was additionally treated with self-made Yishen Antai Decoction. Both groups were intervened till 12 weeks of gestation, and the clinical curative effect was evaluated. Results The total effective rate of treatment, the success rate of pregnancy and the positive rate of blocking antibody (BA) showed significant differences between the observation group and the control group (P< 0.05). After treatment, the total TCM symptom score and serum levels of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were significantly lower while interleukin-10 (IL-10) level was significantly higher in the observation group than the control group (P< 0.05). There were no serious adverse reactions in the two groups. Conclusion Self-made Yishen Antai Decoction is effective and safe in the treatment of RSA. It can significantly improve the success rate of pregnancy and the positive rate of BA, which may be associated with the regulation of IL-2, IL-10 and IFN-γ levels.

Objective To make an evidence-based rehabilitation plan for a patient with osteogenesis imperfecta after external fixation. Methods Based on a comprehensive assessment for the patient's condition, the clinical problems were listed. Related articles were searched from National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), The Cochrane Library, PubMed, CBM, CNKI and Wanfang databases. And the reference list of each eligible article was also included. Finally the optimum rehabilitation program was designed with optimal clinical evidence, patient's conditions and relatives' willingness. Results 1 randomized controlled trial and 4 case reports were included. A progressive exercise program was developed and implemented. No new fractures occurred during the intervention. Muscle strength, gait, activities of daily living had been greatly improved. 20 weeks later, the Berg score was 43 and the Barthel index was 80. Conclusion The progressive rehabilitation exercise program developed from evidence-based practice is safe, effective and feasible.

Feeding intolerance in preterm infants,which is an important issue that the neonatal pediatri-cians have to work out,leads to malnutrition of early preterm infants and growth restriction which have an impact on later behavioral and cognitive outcomes. Feeding intolerance is related to the immature of gastrointestinal function,perinatal asphyxia,infection and other diseases. Minimal enteral feeding,prokinetic agents and supple-mentation of the enteral probiotics,are used generally,but at present there is no guidelines for the prevention and treatment.
