Objective To investigate the social support and the quality of life of colorectal patients with permanent colostomy,and to examine the stability and change of the social support and the quality of life during the post-operative recovery period.Methods A convenience sample of 30 colorectal patients with permanent colostomy were recruited initially.19 completed the follow-up interview 3 months later.Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and the Quality of Life Instrument for Cancer Patients(QLICP) were used to measure the social support and the quality of life.Results The dimensions of SSRS were on decline during 3 months after surgery.The scores of the physical and psychological domains of QLICP increased and the scores of the social,general and specific domains decreased but not significantly during the 3 months after surgery.The scores of specific domain were negatively correlated with the scores of utilization degree of social support,as well as the correlation of scores of specific domain and the total scores of social support.Conclusions The enterostomal therapist should pay attention to the change regulation and relationship between social support and life quality of patients with permanent colostomy,and provide them with physical,psychological,psychiatric and social support according to their demands in order to promote their recovery.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of systemic glucocorticoids and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)for the treatment of toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Methods Clinical data on TEN inpatients treated with systemic glucocorticoids alone or in combination with IVIG were collected from the Department of Dermatology, First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2006 to December 2012. Therapeutic outcomes were evaluated in these patients. Statistical analysis was carried out by using a multiple linear regression analysis, binary logistic regression analysis and Cox regression analysis with the SPSS 16.0 software. Results A total of 48 inpatients with TEN were included in this study. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the maximum daily dose of glucocorticoids for disease control was decreased gradually over years (β=-0.461, P=0.004). However, binary logistic regression analysis revealed no obvious changes in the frequency of administration of IVIG over years. Cox regression analysis showed that both hospitalization duration (RR=0.351, 95.0%CI:0.150-0.825)and the time required for the control of skin lesions (RR=0.492, 95.0%CI:0.245-0.986)decreased with the increase in the frequency of IVIG administration. In addition, with the increase in the maximum daily dose of glucocorticoids for disease control, the time required for the control of skin lesions was also shortened (RR=0.997, 95.0%CI:0.994 -1.000), while no obvious changes were observed in hospitalization duration. Conclusions IVIG shows superiority in controlling lesions, reducing complications and improving the prognosis of TEN. Compared with systemic glucocorticoids, IVIG shows better therapeutic efficacy and less adverse effects, and may be preferentially selected.

AIM: To evaluate the pulmonary function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in order to identify whether the lung is a target organ of chronic pathologic changes in diabetes mellitus. METHODS: Pulmonary ventilation function and diffusion capacity were studied in 107 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and 61 healthy subjects matched for age and sex. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), urine albumin excretion rate (AER), fundus examination and nerve conduction velocity were included as parameters of glycemic control and diabetic microangiopathies. RESULTS: Pulmonary ventilation function was similar in type 2 diabetic group and the control. Compared with the control, carbon monoxide diffusion capacity (DLCO) and DLCO corrected by alveolar volume (DLCO/VA) were significantly lower in type 2 diabetic group (P<0.05). DLCO and DLCO/VA were inversely correlated with microangiopathy score (r: -0.291, -0.324, respectively, P<0.01). Furthermore, DLCO/VA was negatively correlated with age and duration of diabetes mellitus (r: -0.269, -0.236, respectively, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Pulmonary ventilation function is normal in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but their diffusion capacity is impaired. It suggests that the lung may also be the target organ of the chronic pathologic changes of diabetes mellitus.

BACKGROUND: A lot of important organs are worthless for clinical application because they are hard to store for a long time. In addition, tissues or organs which are dealt with cryopreservation also attack ischemia/reperfusion injury with the recovery of blood flow; especially, skeletal muscle is the most involved tissue.OBJECTIVE: To observe the protective influence of edaravone on cellular membrane and mitochondria of replanted rat extremities following ischemia/reperfusion injury due to cryopreservation and rewarming.DESIGN: Randomized contrast animal study.SETTING: Basic Medical College of Southern Medical University; Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, Shandong Provincial Hospital.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Cryopreservation Laboratory, Shandong Provincial Hospital from April to November 2006. A total of 36 healthy adult male Wistar rats were provided by Experimental Animal Center of Medical College of Shandong University. All rats were randomly divided into control group, cryopreservation group and edaravone group with 12 in each group.METHODS: Femoral artery and vein of rats in control group were exposured, but extremities were not blocked. Rats in other two groups were used to establish ischemia/reperfusion injury models of replanted extremities. Before cryopreservation, their right hindlimbs were cut off and maintained in liquid nitrogen container for 1 month. After the operation mentioned above, the broken limbs were rewarmed, perfused with routine eluant and replanted. Four hours later, blood supply of extremities was recirculated and the samples were selected. Eluant in edaravone group contained 0.5 mg/kg edaravone. Samples of skeletal muscle were selected at the same time point to establish cellular membrane and extract mitochondria. Furthermore, fluorescence polarization of cellular membrane (reflecting liquidity in cellular membrane lipid area), malondialdehyde (MDA) content of mitochondria, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and respiratory controlling rate were measured; meanwhile, mitochondrial ultrastructure of skeletal muscle was observed under transmission electron microscope.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①Fluorescence polarization of cellular membrane, MDA content of mitochondria, SOD activity and respiratory controlling rate of skeletal muscle; ②mitochondrial ultrastructure of skeletal muscle.RESULTS: All 36 rats were involved in the final analysis without any loss. ①SOD activity and respiratory controlling rate of mitochondria in skeletal muscle: The values of these two items were higher in edaravone group that those in cryopreservation group (P<0.05).②Fluorescence polarization of cellular membrane and MDA content of mitochondria in skeletal muscle: The values of these two items were lower in edaravone group than those in cryopreservation group (P<0.05). ③Mitochondrial ultrastructure of skeletal muscle: Injured degree of skeletal muscle was milder in edaravone group than that in cryopreservation group.CONCLUSION: Edaravone can relieve ischemia/reperfusion injury of skeletal muscle and protect cellular membrane and mitochondria of skeletal muscle. Its mechanism may be related to directly inhibiting hydroxy free radicals, increasing SOD activity of skeletal muscle, reducing generation of MDA and promoting normal oxidative phosphorylation.

METHODS:Eight Sprague Dawley rats were selected to establish the acute spinal cord injury models using Al en’s method. The rats were randomly divided into 0 hour spinal cord injury group and 8 hours spinal cord injury group, four rats in each group. The spinal cord tissues were col ected after injury, and the spinal cord tissue differences proteins were analyzed with isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation technique after acute spinal cord injury. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Total y 220 differential y expressed proteins were identified in this research, the number of up-regulation proteins was 116 and the number of down-regulation proteins was 104.
