Objective To investigate the clinical effect of biofeedback electrical stimulation in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence(SUI) and discuss the clinical significance.Methods Daily therapy for 40 min through biofeedback electrical stimulation along with pelvic muscle exercises was performed in 36 cases of female SUI for 20 days as a course of treatment.The curative effect was evaluated as regular intervals.Results In the 36 cases,26 caces were cured,5 caces were improved and 5 caees were invalid.The total effective rate was 86.1％.In the follow-up visit,there was 1 case of relapse(2.8％ ) but with moderate symptoms.Conclusion Biofeedback electrical stimulation combined with pelvic muscle exercises,as the therapy for mild and moderate female SUI,was a safe,reliable,feasible,convenient and effective clinical method with high curative ratio.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Mahuang-Fuzi-Xixin decoction and Wuling powder combined with routine western medicine therapy for chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3.Methods A total of 65 patients with CKD stage 3 were recruited and randomized into a treatment group (32 cases) and a control group (33 cases).On the basis of the same routine western medicine therapy,the patients in the treatment group was treated with Mahuang-Fuzi-Xixin decoction and Wuling powder,while those in the control group was treated with ketosteril.All patients were treated for one month.Renal function was evaluated by serum creatinine,urea nitrogen and uric acid before and after treatment.The therapeutic effect was compared between the two group.Results The serum ereatinine after treatment in the treatment group was significantly decreased than that in the control group (387.52 ± 92.13 mol/L vs.502.78 ± 117.35 mol/L;t=4.395,P＜0.01).The total effective rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (87.5％ vs.42.4％;X2=12.533,P＜0.01).In respects of syndrome improvements,tiredness/weakness (90.6％ vs.48.5％,x2=11.637),waist soreness/leg weakness (90.0％ vs.35.5％;x2=17.040,P＜0.01),anorexia and tympanites (93.3％ vs.37.9％;x2=17.802,P＜0.01),loose stool (93.1％ vs.25.8％;x2=25.219,P＜0.01),anasarca (84.6％ vs.41.7％;x2=8.214,P＜0.01),pale and teeth-printed tongue (76.7％ vs.26.7％;x2=13.081,P＜0.01) in the treatment group were significantly better than those in the control group.Conclusions Mahuang-Fuzi-Xixin decoction and Wuling powder combined with routine western medicine therapy can improve the renal function and syndromes in patients with CKD stage 3.

Objective To learn the self‐perceived burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and to analyze its influential fac‐tors as well as its relevance to the social support .Methods The patients′general information questionnaire ,self‐perceived burden scale ,perceived social support scale were adopted to investigate type 2 diabetes mellitus patients .Results Totally 215 patients were included ,of which 104 were male and 111 were female .The average self‐perceived burden score was (25 .59 ± 10 .58) points ,which was in the low‐medium level;78 cases (36 .3% ) suffered low self‐perceived burden ;89 cases (41 .4% ) suffered medium self‐per‐ceived burden;48 cases (22 .3) claimed they had severe self‐perceived burden .The multi‐factor analysis showed that the family an‐nual income (t= -3 .039 ,P<0 .01) ,type of expenses paid (t=2 .769 ,P<0 .01) and the number of complications (t= -2 .493 , P<0 .05) were the influential factors of self‐perceived burden .There was negative correlation between the self‐perceived burden and the social support (r= -0 .292 ,P<0 .01) .Conclusion In patients with type 2 diabetes ,there is a general self perceived bur‐den ,targeted care therapy ,and full use of social support can reduce patient′s self‐perceived burden ,which is conducive to the physi‐cal and mental health of the patients .

As a clinical diagnosis and treatment of low back pain,straight leg raising test has been used most commonly more than 100 years.It is simple and practical,and has a high clinical value.As a very mature orthopedic special examination,straight leg raising test progress in non-orthopedic applications more often than orthopedic aspects.Of course,the most important thing is the diagnosis of low back pain,followed by the treatment of low back pain,and then can be used as a respiratory and circulatory aspect of diagnosis and treatment options.This article elaborated the principle of straight leg raising test and the clinical research progress in order to give the clinician some guidance.

Objective To study the clinical significance of end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PetCO2 ) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and seek the fixed value according which to decide if we should and when to give up.Methods This was a prospective,observational study.A total of 124 patients with cardiac arrest in or out-of-hospital from may 2003 to March 2009 in emergency department of our hospital were selected.All of them had definite etiological factors.Changes of PetCO2 in 124 cardiac arrest patients during CPR were tracked.Results The gender,age,rescue time in seventy-one patients with the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after endotracheal intubation have a significant difference with that in fifty-three patients without ROSC (P ＜0.01 ).The PetCO2 of the survival were higher than that of patients without ROSC or with ROSC,but finally died (P ＜0.01 ).A fixed point 14.4 mmHg of PetCO2 after 20 minutes' CPR can be used as a reference value to guide CPR or predict prognosis.Conclusions Monitoring PetCO2 during CPR has a predictive value on the success of resuscitation.

Objective Explore the diagnostic effect of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in pediatric infectious diseases. Methods The BNProSpec automatic protein analyzer was used to detect the serum hs-CRP levels of children including 246 cases of bacterial infection, 132 cases of virus infection and 72 cases of healthy children (control group) . Results The serum hs-CRP levels were 57.2±19.5 mg/L,4.6±3.2 mg/L and 1.7 ±0.4mg/L in children of the bacterial infection, virus infection and normal control group, respectively. Conclusion The serum levels of hs-CRP in children with bacterial infection were significantly higher than those in other two groups,and the difference was significant ( <0.05) . The results suggested that serum hs-CRP testing has great application value in the diagnosis of pediatric infectious diseases, treatment and prognosis.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a serious threat to public health worldwide with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and all-cause morbidity and mortality. In this study, a urinary metabolomic approach was performed on high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry to discriminate 36 male MetS patients and 36 sex and age matched healthy controls. Pattern recognition analyses (principal component analysis and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminate analysis) commonly demonstrated the difference between MetS patients and no-MetS subjects. This study found 8 metabolites that showed significant changes in patients with MetS, including branch-chain and aromatic amino acids (leucine, tyrosine, phenylalanine and tryptophan), short-chain acylcanitine (tiglylcarnitine), tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediate (cis-aconitic acid) and glucuronidated products (cortolone-3-glucuronide and tetrahydroaldosterone-3-glucuronide). The candidate biomarkers revealed in this study could be useful in providing clues for further research focusing on the in-depth investigation of the cause of and cure for MetS.
