Objective To investigate the effect of Omaha system intervention on social psychology of the elderly,and to provide evidence for effective intervention in elderly with homebound state.Methods 218 cases with homebound conditions were divided into intervention group and control group by random digits table with each group 109 cases.The intervention group accepted intervention including health education,treatment procedures,case management,supervision of the four aspects of 1-3 times a week according to Omaha intervention system for a period of 3 months.The control group was the blank control.And Omaha evaluation form was used to evaluate social psychological and physical effect before and after the intervention.Results 3 months after the intervention,except physiology in the field of neuromusculo-skeletal function of two groups had no significant difference (t=2.03,P>0.05),scores in the intervention group in the field of physiology (like the circulation) were higher than the control group,the difference was statistically significant [(1 1.20±2.03) vs.(8.72±1.36),P<0.05].As for psychology (like mental health),scores of intervention group were higher than that of the control group [(12.53±1.42) vs.(8.63±1.33),t=20.12,P< 0.05].Conclusions Omaha system can effectively improve the quality of life of elderly with homebound state and maintain their physiological,social and psychological function.

Objective To evaluate the effect of different tube voltages on the radiation dose and image quality of a full field digital mammography system.Methods Both experiments were performed under manual exposure mode.In one experiment,the tube voltages were kept constant at 25,28 and 31 kVp,and the CIRS 015 phantom was exposed at three target/filter combinations molybdenum/molybdenum (Mo/Mo),molybdenum/rhodium (Mo/Rh),and rhodium/rhodium (Rh/Rh) and at tube current-exposure time products of 32-140mAs.The entrance skin exposure (ESE) and average glandular dose (AGD) were recorded,the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and figure of merit (FOM) were measured to evaluate the influences of different tube voltages on dose and image quality at same target/filter combination.The univariate of randomized completed block-design was used for statistics.In second experiment,the phantom were exposed using Mo/Rh combination when the tube current-exposure time product was kept constant at 56 mAs,and the tube voltage varied between 23 and 33 kVp in 1-kVp increments.The ESE and AGD were recorded,the SNR,CNR and FOM were measured for plotting the curves against tube voltages.Results At Mo/Mo combination,the AGD,ESE,SNR,CNR and FOM of 25,28 and31 kVp were(1.25 ±0.56) mGy,(6.46±2.86) mGy,71.52±8.37,1.91 ±0.26,3.21 ± 0.68; (1.94 ±0.85) mGy,(9.18±4.07) mGy,144.46 ± 11.31,2.41 ±0.28,3.37 ±0.96 and (3.01 ±1.38) mGy,(12.60±5.59) mGy,128.89 ±15.29,2.47 ±0.31,2.31 ±0.76 respectively; at Mo/Rh combination were (1.23 ±0.55) mGy,(5.26 ±2.33) mGy,67.31 ±4.11,1.82 ±0.19,3.01 ± 0.82; (1.86 ±0.84) mGy,(7.57 ±3.34) mGy,139.54 ± 12.16,2.30 ±0.25,3.23 ±0.92 and (2.81 ±1.24) mGy,(10.48 ±4.62) mGy,127.77 ±15.14,2.59 ±0.31,2.67 ±0.68; and at Rh/Rh were(1.09 ±0.48) mGy,(4.89 ±2.16) mGy,67.46 ±2.23,1.48 ±0.72,3.08 ± 1.69; (1.75 ± 0.78) mGy,(6.88 ±3.03) mGy,137.74 ± 14.65,2.37 ±0.26,3.62 ± 1.07 and (2.59 ± 1.13) mGy,(9.32 ± 4.12) mGy,117.91 ± 19.05,2.51 ± 0.31,2.74 ± 0.84.Both experiments indicated that,for a given target/filter combination,the AGD,ESE and CNR increased,but the ESE/AGD decreased with the tube voltage increasing; The first experiment indicated both SNR and FOM of 28 kVp were higher than that of 25 kVp and 31 kVp; the second experiment showed both SNR and FOM decreased with tube voltages increasing.The differences of AGD、ESE、ESE/AGD、SNR、CNR and FOM among the three tube voltages were significant (F =4.391-528.848,P < 0.05) ; but the difference of CNR between 28 and 31 kVp at Mo/Mo and Rh/Rh had no statistical significance (P > 0.05) ; and the differences of FOM between 25 and 28 kVp at the three target/filter combinations were not statistically significant (P > 0.05).Conclusion For a breast with 4.2 cm thickness and 50% adipose 50% glandular composition,different tube voltages have significant effects on the radiation dose and image quality.

Objective:To observe the effect of electromyographic biofeedback on the wrist dirsiflexion function of the patients with cerebral infarction at different Brunnstrom stages, and to clarify the treatment of electromyographic biofeedback,and to provide basis for its clinical application.Methods:A total of 100 cerebral infarction patients were selected.Among them 54 BrunnstromⅠ-Ⅱ patients were randomly divided into treatment group (n= 32)and control group (n = 22),and another 46 Brunnstrom Ⅲ patients were randomly divided into treatment group (n=23)and control group (n=23).The patients in four groups were treated with the same routine stroke rehabilitation therapy while the patients in treatment groups still received the electromyographic biofeedback therapy additionally.The maximum electromyographic contraction of muscle,active range of movement (AROM) and Fugl-Meyers Assessment (FMA)of the extension of wrist joint were evaluated before treatment and 4 and 8 weeks after treatment,respectively.Results:The maximum electromyographic contraction values of muscle of the patients in BrunnstromⅠ-Ⅱ treatment group and control group were significantly improved 8 weeks after treatment (P <0.05),and the value in treatment group was higher than that in control group (P <0.05).The maximum electromyographic contraction value of muscle in Brunnstrom Ⅲ treatment group began to improve 4 weeks after treatment compared with before treatment (P < 0.05) and it was significantly higher than that in control group (P <0.05).The maximum electromyographic contraction value of muscle in Brunnstrom Ⅲ control group began to improve 8 weeks after treatment (P <0.05).The AROM in Brunnstrom Ⅰ-Ⅱ treatment group began to improve 8 weeks after treatment (P <0.05)and it was significantly higher than that in control group (P <0.05)while the AROM in control group had no significant change (P >0.05).The AROM in Brunnstrom Ⅲ treatment group and control group were significantly improved 4 weeks after treatment (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01 ), and the value in treatment group was significantly higher than that in control group (P < 0.05).The FMA in BrunnstromⅠ-Ⅱtreatment group and control group were significantly improved 8 weeks after treatment (P <0.05),while the value in treatment group was higher than that in control group (P <0.05);the FMA in Brunnstrom Ⅲ treatment group began to improve 4 weeks after treatment (P < 0.05)and it was significantly higher than that in control group (P <0.05). The FMA in control group began to improve 8 weeks after treatment (P <0.05). Conclusion:Electromyographic biofeedback can increase the strength and improve the body function of the patients with cerebral infaction.

Objective To analyze the medication law and academic thoughts of national TCM master Qian Ying in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B through data mining.Methods Totally 168 cases of chronic hepatitis B treated by Professor Qian Ying from Mar.2000 to Dec.2020 were retrospectively collected,and the properties,tastes and tropism meridians,core prescriptions and drug groups of the prescription drugs were analyzed by using the famous doctor inheritance platform.Results Totolly 168 medical cases involved 168 patients and 227 kinds of Chinese materia medica,with a total frequency of 2 158 times.The characteristics of properties,tastes and tropism meridians showed that the main property was cold,and the main taste was bitter,and the main meridian was liver meridian.34 kinds of high-frequency Chinese materia medica(mainly were tonics,heat-clearing medicines,and medicines for activating blood circulation and reducing stasis),28 kinds of core Chinese materia medica,10 pairs of highly co-occurring drugs,and 10 potential drug groups were mined.Conclusion Professor Qian Ying believes that the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis B is deficiency in nature and excess in superficiality,and the treatment focuses on tonifying deficiency.It is often treated from the liver and emphasizes the harmonization of liver,spleen and kidney.Tonifying deficiency,clearing heat,promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis are the main treatment methods,followed by dispelling dampness,promoting qi,eliminating phlegm,opening stagnation and relieving the exterior,etc.He pays attention to the harmonization of body and use,is good at using multiple methods.
