Group A accepted pertinent and one-to-one psychological nursing and group B received collective lecture of health education once a week. FPG, HbAlc changes and healing of wound was observed in the two groups. Results The clinical effect of group A was better than those of group B. Conclusions The pertinent health education can improve cognition and medical compliance of patients, promote healing of wounds, which proves to be superior than that of collective health education.

Background:Gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)is a common disorder of digestive system,however,some of patients are not responding to conventional 4-8 weeks proton pump inhibitor therapy. Aims:To investigate the effect of digital music gastric electrical pacing on clinical symptoms,anxiety and depression and esophageal motility in patients with refractory GERD. Methods:Fifty-three patients with refractory GERD from Jan. 2014 to Oct. 2015 at the Third Affiliated Hospital,the Third Military Medical University were recruited. All of them fulfilled the Montreal definition of GERD. Digital music gastric electrical pacing was performed for 15 days and the efficacy was evaluated by clinical symptom scoring,Hamilton anxiety scale( HAMA),Hamilton depression scale( HAMD)and esophageal motility manometry. Results:After 15-day treatment,the main symptoms,including heartburn,daytime and nocturnal acid reflux,upper abdominal pain,nausea,and sleep disorder were significantly improved(P < 0. 001). A great proportion of patients were complicated with anxiety and/ or depression at recruitment,and after treatment the scores of HAMA and HAMD were decreased significantly(P < 0. 001). Meanwhile,the lower esophageal sphincter resting pressure(LESP),distal wave amplitude,peristaltic wave duration,speed of peristaltic wave and distal contraction integral after treatment were significantly increased as compared with the baseline values(P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Digital music gastric electrical pacing is effective for treatment of refractory GERD with increase of LESP and esophageal body motility. The clinical symptoms and anxiety and depression are improved simultaneously. Digital music gastric electrical pacing is expected to be a new choice of non-medicine treatment for esophageal motility disorders.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy in the treatment of post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome between floating-needle therapy and conventional acupuncture on the basis of rehabilitation training.

METHODSOne hundred cases of post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome were randomized into a floating-needle group and an acupuncture group, 50 cases in each one. The passive and positive rehabilitation training was adopted in the two groups. Additionally, in the floating-needle group, the floating-needle therapy was used. The needle was inserted at the site 5 to 10 cm away from myofasical trigger point (MTrP), manipulated and scattered subcutaneously, for 2 min continuously. In the acupuncture group, the conventional acupuncture was applied at Jianqian (EX-UE), Jianyu (LI 15), Jianliao (TE 14), etc. The treatment was given once every two days, 3 times a week, and 14 days of treatment were required. The shoulder hand syndrome scale (SHSS), the short form McGill pain scale (SF-MPQ) and the modified Fugl-Meyer motor function scale (FMA) were used to evaluate the damage severity, pain and motor function of the upper limbs before and after treatment in the two groups. The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups.

RESULTSSHSS score, SF-MPQ score and FMA score were improved significantly after treatment in the two groups (all P < 0.01), and the improvements in the floating-needle group were superior to those in the acupuncture group (all P < 0.05). The total effective rate was 94.0% (47/50) in the floating-needle group, which was better than 90.0% (45/50) in the acupuncture group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe floating-needle therapy combined with rehabilitation training achieves a satisfactory efficacy on post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome, which is better than the combined therapy of conventional acupuncture and rehabilitation training.

Objective To explore the comprehensive therapy of infants with urinary calculus induced by melamine.Methods Clinical data of 228 infants(aged from 4 months to 3 years,mean age 11 months)with urinary calculus induced by melamine were analyzed. Bilateral renal calculi were found in 144 cases and one-side renal calculus in 54 cases,of which the diameter ranged from 0.5-2.5 cm.Ureteral calculi with moderate to severe hydronephrosis were found in 15 cases,of which the diameter ranged from 0.4-1.1 cm. Bladder calculi with urinary retention were found in 5 cases and urethral calculi with urinary retention in 10 cases,of which the diameter ranged from 0.5-1.3 cm. All the urinary calculi were confirmed by B-uhrasound examination and CT. Group 1 : Of the 15 cases with acute renal failure, 13 underwent shattering and dissolving renal and ureternal calculus by pelvis clysis with alkalinity drug, detaining double J tubes through ureteroscope. After operation, these patients were treated with alkalinity drugs. Two cases were treated by percutaneous nephrostomy guided by B ultrasound and underwent shattering and dissolving renal calculus by intermittent pelvis clysis with alkinity drug. Group 2:15 cases of ureteral calculus with serious nephrohydrops underwent shattering and detaining double J tubes through ureteroscope, then treated with alkalinity drug. Group 3:15 cases of infant bladder and urethral caleus with acute urinary retention were treated by EMS through ureterscope per urethra. Group 4: The rest 183 cases without urinary obstruction received 1-8 week'surine alkalization therapy. Among them, 113 cases received sodium bicarbonate 0.15 g twice per day,23 cases received potassium sodium hydrogen citrate 2.4g/d, and 47 cases received 10% potassium citrate solution 5 ml 3 times per day. Sixty-one cases who were of no effect with alkalinity drug were treated by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and dissolving calculus with sodium bicarbonate. During treatment with alkalinity drug, urine Ph was observed by urine analysis once per day.When it exceeded 7.5, alkalinity drug. Was withdrawn. All the patients were followed up for 1 to 3 months. Statistical analysis was done with the SPSS 13.0 software. ResultsHyperdiuresis emerged 12-24 h after operation in group 1. The duration of hyperdiuresis was 24-72 h with the urine volume of 800-2500 ml/24h. Urine volume revived gradually 48--96h after operation while serum BUN and Cr revived 1-5 d after operation. Four cases with renal and ureteral calculus became almost stone-free in 1-2 weeks and 14 cases became completely stone-free in 2-4 weeks after operation. Patients of group 2 became completely stone-free in 1-2 weeks. Patients of group 3 were cured by one EMS session through ureterscope per urethra and smooth urination was seen immediately after operation. No retained calculus in the bladder and urethra was found by B ultrasound 3 days later. In the sodium bicarbonate group, 4 cases became completely stone-free in 2 weeks, 18 cases in 4 weeks, 15cases in 13 weeks. The stones lessened and faded in 34 cases and had no changes in 42 cases. In the potassiun sodium hydrogen citrate group, 4 cases became completely stone-free in 1 weeks, 7 cases in 2 weeks, 10 cases in 4 weeks, 2 cases in 6 weeks. In the potassium citrate group, 3 cases became completely stone-free in 1 weeks, 5 cases in 2 weeks, 16 cases in 4 weeks, 11 cases in 8 weeks. The stones lessened and faded in 8 cases in 8 weeks and had no changes in 4 cases. The efficacy of the sodium bicarbonate group was significantly different with the efficacy of the citrate group (P=0. 001). No significant difference was found between the potassium sodium hydrogen citrate group and the potassium citrate solution group(P=0. 372). ConclusionsConservative treatment should be employed mainly in the earlier stage for the infant urinary calculus induced by melamine . When the diagnosis of acute renal failure, moderate to severe hydronephrosis and acute lower urinary tract obstruction are established, surgical intervention should be the main method to relieve obstruction, protect renal function and resume normal rnicturition. With the development of the characteristics of the stones later,the oral dissolution therapy with alkalirtity drug could not dissolve the calculi and ESWL should be employed.

Objective: To investigate the dynamic expressions of tenascin-C (TN-C) at different phases of atherosclerosis in ApoE-/-mice. Methods: Our research included in 2 groups: ApoE-/- group, n=50 SPF male mice with ApoE-/- and Control group, n=50 wild male C57BL/6 mice. Atherosclerosis model was established by high fat diet in both groups. The mice were sacrificed at 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32 weeks, blood lipids were examined, pathologic changes of plaque were observed by microscope for quantitative analysis and TN-C expressions in atherosclerosis plaque were measured by immunohistochemistry. Results: Compared with Control group, ApoE-/- group had elevated blood levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), both P<0.05. In ApoE-/- group, plaque area and the ratio of plaque area/lumen area were increasing upon prolonged modeling time, all P<0.05; TN-C expressions were increasing by progress of atherosclerosis, the highest TN-C expression was found at 32 weeks of modeling (0.49±0.07) which was higher than it was at 8 weeks (0.04±0.02), 16 weeks (0.12±0.03) and 24 weeks (0.21±0.04), all P<0.05. Conclusion: TN-C expression was increasing with plaque progress which might be related to the development of atherosclerosis and plaque instability.

Objective To investigate the cognitive, intelligent and cranial MRI status of 4 patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). Methods A pedigree of 4 patients,admitted to our hospital from September 2011 to December 2011 and diagnosed as having DM1, were chosen in our study; Chinese edition tests of Wechsler adult intelligence scale and Wechsler memory scale were used to test the intelligence of these patients; Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) and Neurobehavioral cognitive status examination (NCSE) were applied to evaluate the patients' cognitive function.All of the 4 patients received a cranial MRI scan. Results Except for 1 patient,the other 3 patients had low intelligent quotient (IQ) and memory quotient (MQ),and their verbal IQs were all lower than performance IQs.Three patients showed impaired visual space/executive skills,calculation,memory,and conceptual thinking abilities; 1 patient showed impaired sentence repetition and verbal fluency on MoCA,though his final scores were within normal range. Three patients had brain atrophy to some extent on MRI scan,prominently in the frontal lobe and temporal lobe; white matter lesions and thickened skull were founded in all 4 patients. Conclusion Multiple cognition disorders and brain involvements can be found in DM1 patients and deserve further investigation.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the long-term efficacy of the ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) procedure in treating high transsphincteric fistulas. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the success rate of LIFT treatment in 82 patients with high transsphincteric fistulas involving at least one-third of the external sphincter. This study was carried out across 2 centers from November 2009 to February 2023. Results: All patients underwent successful surgery with a median operative time of 48.9 minutes (range, 20–80 minutes), and no intraoperative or postoperative complications were reported. The median follow-up duration was 85.5 months (range, 4–120 months), with 5 patients (6.1%) lost to follow-up. Treatment was successful in 62 patients, whose symptoms disappeared and both the external opening and the intersphincteric incision completely healed, yielding an overall efficiency rate of 80.5%. There were 15 cases (19.5%) of treatment failure, including 6 (7.8%) that converted to intersphincteric anal fistula and 9 (11.7%) that experienced persistent or recurrent fistulas. Only 1 patient reported minor overflow during the postoperative follow-up, but no other patients reported any significant discomfort. There were no statistically significant differences between patients with surgical success and those with treatment failure in terms of fistula length, history of previous abscess or anal fistula surgery, number of external orifices or fistulas, and location of fistulas (all P>0.05). Conclusion LIFT is a safe and effective sphincter-preserving procedure that yields satisfactory healing outcomes and has minimal impact on anal function.
