Objective To investigate the variations of polysomnography of the patients with retardative depression and non-retardative depression. Methods Twenty-eight patients with depression without any medicine at least for 1 month and fifteen normal controls were assessed in this study. Based on the scores of retardation of Hamilton Depression Scale( HAMD), the patients were divided into the group of retardative depression and the group of non-retardative depression. Polysomnography was given to all the subjects. Results Compared with the normal controls, the depressive patients both in the retardative depression group and in the non-retardative depression group showed significant differences of lower total sleep time (TST), sleep efficiency (SE), SWS% , rapid eye movement ) sleep time ( RT), REM sleep latency (RL) ( all P < 0. 05 ), and higher sleep latency (SL) , awakening time( AT), awakening number( AN ), the percentage of AT( A/TST% ), the percentage of 1 sleep( S1 % ), the percentage of RT( RT% ), REM activity ( RA), and REM intensity (RI). REM density (RD) in the retardative depression group was significantly higher than both the non-retardative depression group and the control group ( t =2.36, P< 0. 05; t = 2.75, P< 0. 05 ). Conclusion Abnormalities of PSG in depression are proved, and RD may be relative to retardation. The differences of PSG do not existed between different kinds of depression such as retardative depression and non-retardative depression.

Objective:To investigate the application value of multi-slice spiral CT and abdominal ultrasound methods in the clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis in children.Methods:We included 50 children patients who were pathologically diagnosed with acute appendicitis by the Department of Surgery, Dongyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital from August 2016 to August 2019. Before surgery, all patients underwent multi-slice spiral CT and abdominal ultrasound examinations. We recorded the time taken to complete multi-slice spiral CT and abdominal ultrasound examinations. Taking pathological results as the diagnosis criteria, we also calculated the coincidence rate of each imaging method.Results:The time we took to complete multi-slice spiral CT examination was shorter than that for abdominal ultrasound examination [(13.34 ± 3.86) minutes vs. (23.45 ± 4.77) minutes, t = 11.65, P < 0.05]. The coincidence rate of multi-slice spiral CT in identifying acute simple appendicitis, acute phlegmonous appendicitis, and acute gangrenous appendicitis was 95.24%, 95.00%, and 100.0%, respectively, and it was 71.73%, 70.00%, 88.89%, respectively for abdominal ultrasound examination. The coincidence rates in identifying acute simple appendicitis, acute phlegmonous appendicitis, and acute gangrenous appendicitis were significantly different between multi-slice spiral CT and abdominal ultrasound examinations ( χ2 = 4.29, 4.33, 1.06, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Compared with abdominal ultrasound, multi-slice spiral CT is easier to operate, takes a shorter time in manipulation, provides more distinct images, and has a higher coincidence rate. Therefore, multi-slice spiral CT is of great diagnostic value for acute appendicitis in children.

Most studies related to determining the expression profile of genes and specific promoters used histochemical localization of the reporter gene, gusA. While the histochemical method for visualizing gusA expression suffers from several limitations in the determination of gene expression and location, especially in the tissues with high background acitivty. To solve this problem, a transient expession vector pBI221-RFP/GFP, was constructed using GFP and RFP as double fluorescent marker genes. This vector used CaMV 35S promoter to drive GFP and determine the transforming efficiency. It analyzed expression profile of the target gene and promoter through the RFP activities of the tranformed tissues. Through the specific promoter AGPL1 from watermelon and E8 promoter from tomato, it is resistible to use this vector to study the expression patterns of promoters. Results indicated that the pBI221-RFP/GFP is a very efficient transient expression vector that can be verify the functions of the genes and promoters.

Objective To understand the correlation between health beliefs and family environment of stroke patients. Methods A questionnaire survey was carried out on 115 stroke patients with the first onset of stroke by using the special health belief simple table (SF-HBMS) and the family environment scale (Chinese version FES-CV), and the correlation was analyzed. The scores of each subscale of the family environment were compared with the domestic norm. Results The total score of health belief (75.15 ± 10.20) was at the middle level. There were significant differences in age (F=8.41), education level (F=4.44), complications (F=4.05), family history (t=2.68) and first visit time (F=3.76) among different characteristics of health belief scores (P < 0.01 or 0.05). The score of intimacy (6.23 ± 1.27) in family environment, emotional expression score (5.30 ± 1.97), success score (5.88 ±1.62), cultural score (4.54 ± 2.20) and organizational score (5.60 ±1.67) were all lower than the domestic norm and spear. The score of shield score (3.16 ± 2.00) was higher than that of domestic norm (P<0.01 or 0.05), and the total score of health belief was positively correlated with family intimacy (r=0.190), emotional expression (r=0.204), culture (r=0.206) and tissue (r=0.227) (P<0.05), and was negatively correlated with the contradiction (r=-0.186, P<0.05); regression analysis, whether there were family history (β=0.338, P<0.01), first onset time (β=0.242, P<0.01), family intimacy (β=1.614, P<0.05), emotional expression (β=1.114, P<0.05) were the factors affecting the health belief level of first stroke patients. Conclusions The level of health belief is closely related to family environment. It is suggested that the clinical medical staff should pay attention to the negative emotion and family psychological intervention, provide psychological support for the patients and their families, promote the promotion of their health beliefs, and reduce the rate of recurrence and disability.

Objective To investigate the correlation of self perceived burden, family cohesion and adaptability in advanced cancer patients. Methods The Chinese version self perceived burden scale (SPBS), Chinese version of family cohesion and Adaptability Scale (FACES-CV) were used to investigate 139 cases of patients with advanced cancer, and to analyze their correlation with family cohesion and adaptability compared with the norm. Results Patients' self perceived burden score (35.83 ± 5.59) points in the moderate level. The 3 dimensions of the item score from high to low was economic burden (4.12 ± 0.86), body burden (3.63 ± 0.53), emotional burden (3.49 ± 0.63); survey of patients with family cohesion and adaptability, intimacy score (67.96 ± 9.35) points, the ideal intimacy score (83.68 ± 6.05), satisfaction score (15.71 ± 9.39) points, were higher than the national norm, the actual adaptability score (48.00 ± 6.92) and ideal adaptability score (56.47 ± 4.99) points lower than the national norm, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01 or 0.05). Patients' self perceived burden score and intimacy was negatively correlated (r=-0.186, P<0.05), and positively correlated with intimacy satisfaction (r=0.175, P<0.05). Regression analysis, gender (B=0.236, P<0.01), family medical burden (B=0.183, P<0.05), actual family cohesion (B=-0.111, P<0.05) was the influencing factors of patients' self perceived burden. Conclusions The burden of self perception in advanced cancer patients is closely related to family cohesion and adaptability. It is suggested that the medical staff should pay attention to the family psychological intervention and provide emotional connection for the patients and their families, so as to reduce the negative emotion of the patients with advanced cancer.

Objective:To observe the characteristics of back scraping skin symptoms in sub-health people through diagnostic scraping, and explore the characteristics of back scraping skin symptoms in sub-health people with different constitutions.Methods:By adopting a cross-sectional study method, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine recruited volunteers through a combination of offline and online methods from March 2021 to September 2022. Totally 2 239 sub-health people were treated for TCM constitution identification and were diagnostic scraped with Wentong scraping cup. The differences of back scraping skin symptoms in the color, speed, amount, shape, nature of pain and feeling characteristics under scraping board were compared between sub-health people with different TCM constitutions and gentle constitution.Results:There were differences in the characteristics of Sha Xiang among sub-health individuals with different constitutions. Among them, 49.02% (351/716) of individuals with a gentle constitution had a bright red color, 90.64% (649/716) had a fast rate of appearance, 5.73% (41/716) had a large amount of sha, 3.35% (24/716) had a patchy shape, 3.35% (24/716) felt a stabbing pain, and 0 felt nodules under the scraping plate. Among individuals with a damp-heat constitution, 86.72% (457/527) had a bright red color, 95.64% (504/527) had a fast rate of appearance, 100.00% (527/527) had a large amount of sha, 88.80% (468/527) had a patchy shape, 95.64% (504/527) felt a stabbing pain and 97.72% (515/527) felt nodules under the scraping plate. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 values were 11.27 to 1 243.00, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The characteristics of back scraping skin symptoms of sub-health people with different constitutions are different. It is expected that the type of TCM constitution of sub-health people can be judged according to the characteristics of scraping skin symptoms in the future, in order to guide patients in health management and improve their satisfaction with traditional Chinese medicine scraping treatment.
