Objective To systematic evaluate the effectiveness of different psychological treatment methods in the management of postpartum depression (PPD). Methods Relevant literature between 1968 and February 2009 was searched by computer and manual. And suitable randomized controlled trials were brought into this research according to the inclusion and the exclusion criteria. Then meta-analysis was used in four time periods including immediately post- treatment,6 months after treatment, 1 year after treatment and 5 years after treatment.Results A total of eight studies were brought into this research. Immediately post-treatment,it showed significant differences between intervention and control groups of CBT (P = 0.03 ), non-directive counseling(P = 0.0009), psychodynamic therapy (P = 0.005 ) and interpersonal psychotherapy (P = 0.002 ). Within 6 months after treatment, it showed significant differences between intervention and control groups of CBT(P = 0.006 )and peer support (P =0.03) ,but not in non-directive counseling. Within 1 year after treatment,it showed significant differences between intervention and control groups of CBT(P= 0.02 ), but not in non-directive counseling and psychodynamic therapy.Within 5 years after treatment, no significant differences in intervention and control groups of CBT, non-directive counseling and psychodynamic therapy. Conclusions A total of five psychological treatment methods are effective in the management of PPD. CBT has both good short-term and long-term effectiveness. Non-directive counseling and psychodynamic therapy only have a good short-term effectiveness, but a poor long-term effectiveness. Interpersonal psychotherapy and peer support have a good short-term effectiveness.

4.Inhibitory Effect of Meperidine on Tracheal Vascular Permeability Increased by Hot Air Injury in Rat
Journal of Third Military Medical University 1983;0(03):-
Colorimeter detection of Evas Blue in formamide extract of rat tracheal tissue is used as an indication of increased vascular permeability induced by introduction of 115 degrees C air into the rat trachea, followed by a dose (20mg/kg) of meperidine given. The increases of tracheal vascular permeability (TVP) and malondialdehyde (MDA) level induced by hot air injury (HAI) are markedly inhibited. The decrease of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity induced by HAI is raised. The inhibitory effect of meperidine (MIE) on TVP is not antagonized by naloxone. It is implied that the opiate receptor sensitive to naloxone is not involved in the MIE on TVP. The decrease of tracheal MDA content, increase of tracheal SOD activity raising the ability of scavengering oxygen free radicals and reducing the formation of other active oxygen, inhibit lipid peroxidation. These antioxidative effects may be one aspect of the mechanism of the inhibiory effect of meperidine on TVP.

Objective To investigate the pain level and its influential factors in patients after operation of hepatobiliary surgery. Methods 120 patients were evaluated with the demographic data, State Trait Anxiety Inventory Form (STAI) , Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) , Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ). Results The highest pain level was within 2h in patients after the operation,then decreased gradually,but its still in the moderate level until 72h after the operation;the pain scores of the PCIA group were lower than the control group ( 2h, 12h after the operation) (P < 0.05, (P < 0. 01 ). The preoperative state anxiety (S-AI) scores were higher than the norm (P<0. 01 ). The psychoticism Personality characteristics influents the postoperative pain ( 12h,24h after the operation); there were positively correlations between P and VAS (12h, 1week after the operation). The analgesia methods influent the postoperative pain(2h,48h after the operation). The S-AI influents the postoperative pain (2h-48h after the operation) ,there were positively correlations between S-AI and VAS (2 ~ 72h after the operation). The social support influents the postoperative pain (48h after the operation); there were negatively correlations between PSSS score and VAS (48h ,72h and 1 week after the operation). The age and occupation of the patients influent the postoperative pain. Conclusion There was serious pain in patients after operation of hepatobiliary. The preoperative S-AI ,the psychoticism personality characteristics, analgesic modalities, social support, age, occupation of patients are influential factors of pain in patients after abdominal operation.

Objective:To explore the relationship between social support and negative emotion in parents of children with congenital heart disease before the operation.
Methods:Social support rating scale (SSRS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), and Center for epidemiological survey-depression scale (CES-D) were used to assess the association between social support and anxiety and depression in 226 parents.
Results:The mean SSRS score was signiifcantly lower than the normal. There was signiifcant difference in social support of parents in monthly family earning and knowledge about surgery. Parents with monthly family income≤1000 yuan had lower scores than the other groups. Parents who knew nothing about the surgery approach had lower scores. Social support was significantly correlated to negative emotion (anxiety and depression). Social support could predict anxiety and depression.
Conclusion:Social support is widely and significantly correlated to negative emotion in parents of children with congenital heart disease before the surgery.
