ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors of preoperative fearful anxiety,and explore the effect of nursing intervention for the improvement of preoperative fearful anxiety. Methods500 cases of surgical patients in our hospital from January 2009 to January 2010 were chosen as the research objects.They were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group with 250 patients in each group.The control group was given routine preoperative nursing care.The observation group was given preoperative nursing intervention.The general information,surgery program,knowledge of surgical program,the patients' family situation and economic situation were taken for statistics.Their SAS score 30 minutes before the surgery was determined,and the influencing factors of preoperative fearful anxiety were analyzed. ResultsThe study showed that the influencing factors of fearful anxiety included:character,education background,family economic status,knowledge of the situation of surgery and other factors.The anxiety score 30 min before surgery was compared,the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group.The difference between the two groups was significant. ConclusionsThe preoperative fearful anxiety was directly related to patients' own situation and level of medical services.Fully understanding of the situation before surgery and targeted preoperative nursing interventions can effectively reduce preoperative anxiety,and is conducive to the successful implementation of operation and postoperative rehabilitation.

Objective To evaluate the value of cardiovascular digital imaging and echocardiography in diagnosis of transposition of the great arteries.Methods Thirty cases of transposition of the great arteries were examined with cardiovascular digital imaging technique,two-dimensional echocardiography and color Doppler.11 cases of them underwent surgery.A comparison was made between the data obtained and surgical findings.Results The rate of coincidence of digital imaging and echocardiography with operation in diagnosing transposition of the great arteries was 92.3%(36/39)and 84.6%(33/39) respectively.Both echocardiography and cardiovascular digital imaging techique could clearly show the abnormalities of the heart and great vessels.Echocardiography was sensitive to valvular pathological changes,though cardiovascular digital imaging was superior to echocardiography in demonstrating abnormalities of great arteries and systemic-pulmonary collateral circulations.Conclusion Combination of echocardiography with cardiovascular digital imaging technique can greatly improve the rate of diagnostic accuracy for transposition of the great arteries.

Objective:The study was to investigate the effects of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody (cetuximab,C225) combined with cyclooxygenase 2(COX-2)inhibitor (nimesulide) on the proliferation and apoptosis of colon cancer HT-29 cells, and explore the potential molecular mechanism. Methods:C225 and nimesulide alone or in combination were incubated with HT-29 cells. MTT assay was used to measure the cell proliferation. AO/EB staining and flow cytometry were used to measure the cell apoptosis. RT-PCR was used to detect the COX-2 and non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-activated gene (NAG-1) mRNA expression levels. The expression of Akt and phosphor-Akt protein was examined by Western blotting. Results:The inhibitory effect of nimesulide combined with C225 was significantly stronger than that of nimesulide alone [(72.8±2.3)% vs (51.8±1.8)% , P<0.05]at 48 h. Typical changes of apoptosis in HT-29 cells were observed in nimesulide combined with C225 treatment group. The apoptosis rate of combined group was significantly higher than that of single nimesulide group [(57.67±0.86)% vs(33.27±1.47)%]and single C225 group [(6.27±0.55)%,P<0.05]. C225 down-regulated the expression of COX-2 mRNA. The expression of NAG-1 mRNA was up-regulated in all treatment groups and the expression of phosphor-Akt was significantly down-regulated in combined treatment group than single nimesulide or C225 group. Conclusion:Nimesulide combined with C225 has obvious synergistic effects in inducing apoptosis. The potential mechanisms may be that EGFR signaling pathway is involved in the regulation of cycloxygenase-2 expression in HT-29 cells and finally influence the proliferation and apoptosis of HT-29 cells through the up-regulation of NAG-1 and down-regulation of phosphor-Akt expression.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the serum enzymes in childhood amputees as a result of earthquake,and to discuss their clinical significance.Methods From 150 children amputees who were victims of Sichuan Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 and Sichuan Lushan earthquake in 2013,45 cases with complete records of serum enzymes examinations were reviewed retrospectively.They were divided into three groups:amputation group (n=6),fasciotomy decompression group (n =5),general trauma without injury to extremity group (n =34).Serum enzyme examination data were compared for statistical analysis to find the difference among groups.Ten children who were not victims of earthquake were selected from department of orthopaedics to serve as controls,and 20 adult amputees as a result of earthquake served as another control group.Results There were significant differences in injury severity scale (ISS) and the contents of all serum enzymes,including aspartate transaminase (AST),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),creatine kinase (CK),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),and hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH),between the amputation group and other patients (FISS=15.474,P＜0.001 ; FAST=10.770,P＜0.001 ; FALT=12.799,P＜0.001 ; FcK=12.848,P＜0.001; FUDH=13.126,P＜0.001; FHBDH=13.186,P＜0.001),and the difference in amputation group was even more significant.AST,LDH,HBDH in childhood amputees group were significantly higher than those in adult amputation group.The contents of ALT and CK were slightly increased.Serum enzyme contents were found to be significantly helpful for prediction of disease condition and prognosis.It was also found that CK was extremely helpful in assessing the degree of illness in patients with severe trauma,especially in patients complicated by severe soft tissue injury.In all the groups,of patients,it was found that CK rose from (129 ± 62) U/L in non-earthquake induced trauma group to (44 208 ± 39 788) U/L in earthquake amputation group,and it was thus increased more than 300 times.Its highest value even reached 117 513 U/L,which was more than 840 times of the normal.If a timely amputation or muscle compartment decompression was performed,CK might decline rapidly down to the normal value.Conclusions The comprehensive and continuous assessment of serum enzymes is mandatory during the treatment of children with acute trauma.It is of important clinical significance to correctly judge the condition and to determine optional treatment measures.

Objective To evaluate their roles of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), cardiovascular digital imaging (CVDI) and electron beam computed tomography (EBT) in the diagnosis of complex congenital heart dieases (CHD).Methods Twenty-one patients with CHD were studied, including 12 cases of boys and 9 cases of girls. Fourteen cases of them underwent surgery. All of them were examined by two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) , color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) and EBT, 11 cases of them were examined by CVDI.Results The rate of coincidence between EBT and CVDI in diagnosing complex CHD was 93.3% (28/30). The accurate rate of TTE and CVDI in diagnosing complex CHD was 77.8% (35/45) and 93.3% (42/45) respectively.Conclusion In diagnosing complex CHD,combination EBT with TTE can replace the technique of CVDI partially.

Objective To investigate the effect of total liquid ventilation on pulmonary inflammatory reaction in piglets after cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods After receiving cardiopulmonary bypass operation, 12 piglets were randomly treated with conventional gas ventilation or total liquid ventilation for 240 minutes. Samples for blood gas analysis were collected before and at 30-minute interval after cardiopulmonary bypass. The degree of lung injury was analyzed histologically. The inflammatory cells and the levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and myeloperoxidase in bronchoalveolar lavage were analyzed. Results Normal gas exchange was maintained during total liquid ventilation. Nuetrophil and macrophage count in bronchoalveolar lavage and histological lung injury were significantly reduced in the study group. The concentrations of interleukin-6, myeloperoxidase in bronchoalveolar lavage were reduced in the study group [(53.55?15.48) vs. (81.32?15.23) pg/ml, (50.00?7.37) vs. (75.00?9.19) U/L], P

Objective To explore the selection of reasonable interventional treatment to portal hypertension under different conditions.Methods The data of 76 patients with portal hypertension and interventional treatment from 1997 to 2002 were retrospectively analyzed. 26 patients were treated with transjugular intrahepatic porto-systemic stent shunt (TIPSS). Of these 26 patients, 11 patients suffered from hemorrhage after surgery treatment by devascularization, 6 patients with hemorrhage after stomach mirror treatment, and 9 patients with ineffective medicine treatment. 50 patients were treated with percutaneous transhepatic variceal embolization (PTVE) combined with partial splenic embolization (PSE), and they all showed inefficacy by medicine treatment. Free portal pressure (FPP) in pre- and post-treatment was measured in all 76 cases. The hepatic volume was measured by spiral-CT before and one year after the treatment.Results In TIPSS group, FPP was reduced from (3.85?0.42) kPa to (3.09?0.44) kPa (( t= 3.682, P
