Objective To explore the effect of mindfulness- based stress reduction on coping style and quality of life in liver cirrhosis ascites patients. Methods Seventy- nine patients with liver cirrhosis ascites from March 2012 to May 2013 were selected as the control group with conventional treatment; 77 patients with liver cirrhosis ascites from October 2013 to December 2014 were selected as the observation group and were given mindfulness based stress reduction based on the control group. The coping style, the hope level and the quality of life between the two groups were compared by Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, Herth Hope Scale, European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ- c30). Results Before the treatment, two groups of positive and negative coping had no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). After the treatment of the observation group actively respond to score as follows: (25.44 ±2.61) points,significantly higher than the control group:(19.42±3.33) points, negative coping scores as follows: (9.76±1.89) points,significantly lower than the control group:(11.99±2.43) points, the differences between the two groups were significant (t=-10.468, 7.572, both P<0.01).Before the treatment, two groups of hope level had no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). The scores of the reality and the future of positive attitude, positive action, keep close relationship with others were (14.5±2.6), (15.1±2.4), (15.6±2.1) points after the treatment in the observation group, and (10.1±2.7), (10.5±2.3), (11.6±2.5) points in the control group, and there were significant differences (t=4.965, 5.569, 3.659, all P<0.01). After the treatment, observation group and control group patients in nausea and vomiting, constipation, diarrhea three dimension score difference had no statistical significance(P>0.05). The scores of physical function, role function, emotional function, cognitive function, social function, fatigue, pain, general health questionnaire, shortness of breath, insomnia, loss of appetite and the economic difficulties were (69.3±15.5), (74.1±22.6), (68.3±21.5), (79.7±23.4), (72.6±25.2), (42.1±26.1), (30.1±26.2), (55.6±15.6), (35.2±27.4), (36.2±28.7), (33.6±28.3), (25.6±24.3) points after the treatment in the observation group, and (58.6±21.2), (61.4±26.2), (75.6±20.4), (65.4±22.3), (55.4±28.7), (48.5±25.3), (37.6±29.2), (30.2±11.3), (41.6±28.7), (44.6±31.3), (40.2±30.4), (59.6±32.4) points in the control group, and there were significant differences (t=-39.369-15.621, P<0.01 or 0.05). Conclusions The mindfulness- based stress reduction can significantly improve the coping style in patients with liver cirrhosis and ascites, the level of hope and improve quality of life of patients, it is worth clinical promotion.

Objective To observe the effects of irbesartan and amlodipine on insulin sensitivity in obese hypertensive patients. Methods 157 moderate hypertensive patients were divided into two greups,which received irbesartan or amlodipine for 16 weeks. The changes of blood pressure,heart rate and weight were observed. Insulin re-sistance was computed using the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR). Results There was no difference in antihypertensive efficacy between the two groups(P>0.05). After 16 weeks of treatment ,the insulin resistance index decreased by 8.7±2.4 vs 6.1±2.6 (P<0.01) and body mass index decreased(28.1±3.8) kg/m2 vs (27.2± 3.2 ) kg/m2 (P<0.05 ) and mean heart rate raised by (73.1 ±10.0 ) kg/m2 vs ( 79.1±11.4) kg/m2 ( P < 0.01 ) in irbesartan group while no such changes were found in amlodipine treated group. Conclusions In obese hypertensive patients,irbsartan and amlodipine exert similar antihypertensive effect, but irbesartan may help to improve some obe-sity-related metabolize disorder,so the obese hypertensive patients may benefit more from irbsartan than from amlo-dipine.

Objective:To explore the association between platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and frequent peritoneal dialysis (PD) - associated peritonitis (PDAP) in PD patients.Methods:The data of PD patients with PDAP from Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital between January 2015 and June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into mono group (only once PDAP occurred in one year) and frequent group (2 or more PDAP occurred in one year) according to the frequency of PDAP. The demographic data including gender, age, height and weight, the clinical data including blood pressure, duration of PD, causes of peritonitis, the laboratory data at the first time of PDAP and the prognosis of PDAP were compared between two groups. Logistic regression analysis method was applied to analyze the relationship between PLR and frequent PDAP. The predictive power of PLR was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC).Results:A total of 78 PD patients with PDAP were enrolled, including 53 males and 25 females, with average age of 45.2 years. The total person-year was 765.1 person-years and the incidence of peritonitis was 0.10 case/person-year during the median follow-up of 16 months. All patients were divided into two groups: 53 patients in mono group and 25 patients in frequent group. Compared with mono group, the patients in frequent group had lower body mass index, longer dialysis duration, higher systolic blood pressure level, higher PLR level, lower uric acid level, and higher rate of drug-resistant bacteria in peritoneal effusion (all P<0.05). The extubation rate of the frequent group was 44.0%(11/25), which was significantly higher than that [15.1%(8/53)] of mono group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher PLR level was an independent related factor for frequent PDAP( OR=1.006, 95% CI 1.002-1.010, P=0.003), and the area under the ROC curve of PLR was 0.783(95% CI 0.663-0.904, P<0.001). Conclusions:High PLR level is an independent related factor of frequent PDAP for PD patients, and PLR can be a potential predictor of frequent PDAP.
