Objective To study the diagnostic value of repetitive nerve stimulation test in myasthenia gravis. Method The repetitive nerve stimulation test was performed at axillary nerves, ulnar nerves and facial nerves in 36 patients with myasthenia gravis which treated in our hospital from 1996. 10 to 1999. 10. 108 nerves were tested. Result The RNS test positivity rate of amplitude decrement in 108 nerves was 60. 2% ( 65 nerves). Among them, the highest(77. 8% )positivity rate was deltoid mucle supported by axillary nerve, the lowest(41.7% ) was abductor digiti minimi mucle supported by ulnar nerve. There were 31 cases(86. 1% ) had one or more than one nerves with positive results in 36 patients. The best stimulation frequancy were 3 ~ 5 Hz. Conclusion Stimulate the axillary nerve, facial nerve and ulnar nerve in the same patient, would improve the RNS positivity rate in diagnosis of MG.

Objective:To explore influence of psychological persuasion and drug intervention on anxiety and depres‐sion in patients with myocardial bridge .Methods:A total of 126 patients ,who were confirmed as had myocardial bridge by coronary angiography (CAG) ,were divided into routine treatment group (n=62) and psychological intervention group (n=64 ,received psychological persuasion ,flupentixol melitracen tablet and sertraline therapy based on routine treatment ) . Another 40 cases with normal CAG results were enrolled as normal control group ,three groups received anxiety and depres‐sion assessment using Zung self‐rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self‐rating depression scale (SDS) before and after interven‐tion ,and the results were compared among three groups .Results:Before intervention ,there were no significant difference in SAS and SDS standardized scores between routine treatment group and psychological intervention group (P>0.05) ,but they were significantly higher than those of normal control group [SAS:(50.38 ± 7.10) scores ,(49.78 ± 7.42) scores vs . (25.70 ± 3.80) scores ,SDS:(48.5 ± 7.43) scores ,(47.67 ± 8.12) scores vs .(26.47 ± 4.10) scores , P<0.01 all] .After intervention ,SAS and SDS standardized scores of psychological intervention group significantly reduced compared with be‐fore intervention (P<0.01) ,and they were significantly lower than those of routine treatment group [SAS:(40.84 ± 6.23) scores vs .(50.88 ± 8.63) scores ,SDS:(39.82 ± 5.84) scores vs .(50.69 ± 8.48) scores] ,P<0.01 all .Conclusion:Psychological persuasion combined drug intervention could significantly reduce or relieve anxiety and depression in patients with myocardial bridge .

Objective:To explore the therapeutic effect of psychological and drug intervention on anxiety and depres‐sion in patients after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) .Methods :A total of 115 patients performed CABG were randomly divided into combined intervention group (n=60) and routine nursing group (n=55) .During peropera‐tive period ,combined intervention group received psychological intervention ,flupentixol and melitracen tablet and sertraline based on routine nursing .A total of 25 matching normal people were selected from community and regar‐ded as normal control group ,scores of Zung self‐rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self‐rating depression scale (SDS) were evaluated and compared among three groups before and after operation .Results :Before intervention ,there were no significant difference in standard scores of SAS and SDS between combined intervention group and routine nursing group ( P > 0.05) ,but they were all significantly higher than those of normal control group , P < 0.01 all . After operation ,standard scores of SAS and SDS in combined intervention group were significantly lower than be ‐ fore operation ( P < 0.01 both) ,and they were significantly lower than those of routine nursing group [SAS : (41.31 ± 6.13) scores vs .(51.35 ± 8.95) scores ,SDS : (40.20 ± 5.80) scores vs .(51.22 ± 8.78) scores , P < 0.01 both] . Conclusion :Psychological combined drug intervention could significantly relieve anxiety and depression in patients after coronary artery bypass graft ,which is helpful for improving postoperative prognosis .
