Objective To analyze the relationship between the varicosity of esophagus and portal hypertensive gastropathy(PHC) in patients with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage of hepatocirrhosis. Methods The damage degree of esophageal varicosity was divided into four grades and the PHG were divided into three groups according to the McCormack standards by emergency gastric endoscopy. Results Among 200 patients with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage,100 cases(50. 0%) were caused by esophageal varicosity explosion and 44 cases(22. 2% ) were induced by PHG,38 cases (19. 0%) were due to gastric ulcer, 18 cases (9. 0%) were duo to other causes. Comparison between etiology and liver function of A-class(except for other reasons group) were significantly different(X2 =4. 23 ,X2 =4. 15 ,X2 =4. 18,X2 =4. 07,P＜0. 05 ;X2 =6. 83 ,X2 =7. 01 ,P＜0. 01 ) ;The portal vein diameter＞1.5cm bleeding incidence(32. 5% ) were significantly higher than the diameter＜1. 1cm bleeding incidence( 12. 5% ) (X2 =4. 73 ,P ＜0. 05 ) ;The degree of PHG in severe esophageal varices (55. 6% ) were significantly higher than the mild esophageal varices( 11.1% )( X2 = 7.73, P＜0. 01 ). The correlation between PHG degree and esophagus varicosity were positive related(r=0.455,X2 = 4.01,P＜0.05). Conclusion The esophageal varicosity explosion and PHG are two major factors to cause hepatocirrhosis complicated with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhagein. The more severe the damage degree of esophageal varicosity is,the higher incidence and the more severe the PHG will be.

BACKGROUND: Critical incidents are natural and man-made disasters arising suddenly, which are beyond the ability of the individuals to resist or control. In the situation of stress, individuals feel stuck, and are unable to control the situation.OBJECTIVE: To confirm the assessment model of stress response to critical events and the interventional effect of social support, general self-efficacy and coping efficacy.DESIGN: A randomized sampling, questionnaire-based investigation.PARTICIPANTS: We selected 1016 college students of 17 provinces or cities including Beijing, Guangzhou, Hefei, Jilin, Jiangsu, Jiangxi , Liaoning, Sichuan, Inner Mongolia, Shandong , Shanghai, Hebei, Tianjin,Wuhan, Zhejiang , Chongqing and so on as subjects. Totally 708 college students selected from the above regions received the same survey one year later.METHODS: Depression and anxiety state of the subjects were investigated with Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CESD)and Anxiety Inventory (SAS) during SARS. Social support condition was investigated with Social Support Rating Scale, authorized by Xiao Shuiyuan. Related items were amended considering used among college students. The subscale was integrated into 3 subscales including group-support, friend-support and social support utilization. One year later, stress response to SARS was investigated again with self-made coping efficacy scale, self-esteem scale and self-efficacy scale and SARS Stress Response Questionnaire, which included 13 items measuring the students in three aspects: cognitive evaluation to SARS epidemic, such as "I believe human beings can conquer SARS in the end"; panic to SARS, like "worrying about SARS sweats me and makes me feel shiver sometimes"; and defense response to SARS, as "In order to prevent SARS, I have to wear respirator in the public". As far as cognitive, panic emotion and defense behaviors were concerned. The coping efficacy developed by the author covered 18items, such as "I'm afraid that I can not deal with things", "I have enough confidence to conquer any difficulty", and namely as friability, confidence and intelligence.RESULTS: ① The two investigated results were compared through assessment of covariation. There was a significant difference in cognitive condition, panic emotion and defense behavior; that was to say, the stress response to SARS had been obviously relieved . ② Social support and SARS stress response model x2=8.654,df=4,P=0.07;criterion fit index NFI= 1, RFI =0.997 and IFI =1, RMSEA=0.034. ③self-efficacy confirmative factor analysis showed the following: x2=0.536,df=2,P=0.765;x2/df=0.268, NFI=1, RFI=1, IFI=1 and CFI=1, RMSEA=0.000. ④The discriminating and convergent validity of coping efficacy questionnaire was as follows. The coefficient was 0.633 with general efficacy questionnaire, 0.530 with self-respect (SES), 0.481 with CESD, 0.387 with anxiety (SAS), and -0.003 with living events. ⑤ A structural equation model about general self-efficacy, coping efficacy and SARS stress response was established: x2 =2.722 df=3, P=0.437; NFI=1, RFI=0.999,IFI=1, CFI=1, RMSEA=0.068. The model fitted well. According to the data, coping efficacy affected SARS stress response negatively (the coefficient was -0.59)CONCLUSION: ① The three-dimensional assessment model assessed the stress response to critical incidents including cognitive adjustment, emotional response and behavioral tendency. The three-dimensional model stood the test while assessing SARS stress response. Compared with the assessment of emotional disorders, such as depression and anxiety, the model was more sensitive. ②Social support played a vital role in the stress response to critical incidents as a buffer or a regulator. It showed more influence on emotional disorders than on SARS stress response. ③Coping efficacy was a measurable intervening variable, which deserves more attention to in the stress response to critical incidents. Compared with general self-efficacy, coping efficacy had a greater intervening effect on SARS stress response.
