Objective To explore the factors influencing health management demand by community residents.Methods Using data from the survey of Health Management Demand by Community Residents in Hangzhou,this paper examined the influence factors with the logistic model from such four aspects as individual characteristics,economic characteristics,health level and health awareness.Results The health awareness poses a positive impact on health management demand;the level of health has a negative impact while income has an inflection point(5 000 yuan per month).However,individual characteristics have no significant effect. Conclusion Such measures as enhancing health management awareness of the residents,building a health management system centering on communities and supported by health management firms,and building health management information platform,can effectively satisfy such demand.

Sepsis is a common desease with a high mortality in pediatric intensive care unit. The patho-genesis of sepsis remains unclear. Recent studies have found that extracellular histones play an important role in the incidence of sepsis. This review provides new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis.

Objective To build new management model for diabetic foot disease,and to observe the therapeutic effect of diabetic foot ulcers under the new model.Methods 52 patients with newly diagnosed diabetic foot disease were recruited and randomly divided into the experimental group (n=26) and the control group (n=26).While the experimental group adopted the interdisciplinary collaboration model (nurse-doctor jointed diabetes care management model),the control group were treated by the single department pattern.The foot ulcer healing rate,average length of stay (ALOS),fasting plasma glucose (FPG),2 h postprandial blood glucose (2 h PBG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c),and the patient awareness of the knowledge about diabetes self-management were respectively compared at 3 and 6 months.Results After receiving a multidisciplinary joint diagnosis and treatment,FPG and 2 h PBG of the patients from the experimental group [(6.44±2.93)mmol/L,(8.52± 2.09)mmol/L] were significantly decreased than those of the patients from the control group [(8.17±3.19)mmol/L,(10.77±3.27)mmol/L].HbA1c at 3 and 6 months (7.2％,7.7％) and ulcer recurrence rate (3.8％) after 6 months of patients of the experimental group were significantly reduced than those of the control group(8.9％,9.1％ and 15.4％).When compared with patients of the control group,patients of varying severity in the experimental group showed significantly shortened ulcer healing time and hospital stay.Moreover,patients from the experimental group showed statistically higher knowledge level and self management ability (P＜0.05).Conclusion Through interdisciplinary collaboration,podiatric medical joint management model can significantly improve cure rate,shorten ALOS,improve blood sugar control and patient satisfaction.

Objective To investigate the safety,efficacy and effects of emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients from Second Affiliated Hospital,Medical College,Zhejiang University with cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Method Twenty-seven patients with CS complicating with AMI were treated by PCI with intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) support.The change of hemodynamics before and after IABP and PCI,the characteristics of PCI,the mortality during hospitalization, the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and left ventricular ejection fraction at 30-day follow-up were observed.Results The hemodynamics were significantly improved after IABP.No patients died during PCI.Two patients died after PCI and the total mortality was 7.4% in hospital.During the period of 30-day follow-up, one patient died of heart failure.The left ventricular ejection fraction greatly improved at 30 days after PCI. Conclusions The data suggested that the use of IABP during PCI in patients with CS complicating AMI was safe, decreased mortality and improved prognosis.

Aim To research into the effect of diltiazem on cytokines expression in mononuclearcells induced by concanavalin A.Methods Ficoll density gradient centrifugation was used to separate the mononuclearcells from rat's spleen.There were 3 groups including control, Con A, diltiazem-Con A group in the study.The cytokines expressions in supernatant were detected by ELISA.Results Compared with control, IL-10, TNF-α, IL-6 were increased significantly in Con A group with low level IL-1β and non level TGF-β_1.But in diltiazem-Con A group, IL-10, TNF-α, IL-6 were decreased significantly compared with Con A group.Conclusion Diltiazem inhibits IL-10, TNF-α, IL-6 expressions in mononuclearcells induced by Con A.

Aim To explore the cardiac cytokine expression in rat model of myocardial calcium overload, and the intervention from diltiazem.Methods The intracellular Ca~(2+) overload was induced by the isolated rat heart subjected to 5 min Ca~(2+) depletion and 30 min Ca~(2+) repletion (Ca~(2+) paradox) by the Langendorff technique.There were five groups in this study, including Ca~(2+) overload group, normal control group, Ca~(2+) depletion control group, Ca~(2+) overload-diltiazem group, and Ca~(2+) depletion-diltiazem group.The views of myocardial pathology and ultrastruction were observed by electron microscope and light microscope respectively. The cardiac intracellular [Ca~(2+)]_i was detected by atom spectrophotometer. The expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, L-6, TGF-β1, and IL-10 was detected by RT-PCR method.Results In Ca~(2+) overload group, few inflammatory cells were found in myocardium under the light microscope. And the views of electron microscope presented that cardiocyte membranes, nucleolus, and mitochondria were disorganized obviously.Compared with normal control group, the inflammatory cytokines as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were increased significantly whereas there was nearly no difference of the expression of TGF-β1 and IL-10 in Ca~(2+) overload group.Ca~(2+) overload-diltiazem group showed that TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were decreased significantly. There were no statistical differences in the structure of myocardium, intracellular [Ca~(2+)]_i, and cardiac cytokines expressions in the three control groups, including normal control group, Ca~(2+) depletion control group and Ca~(2+) depletion-diltiazem group.Conclusions Instead of TGF-β1 and IL-10, the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 is increased obviously in myocardium of calcium paradox model. Diltiazem can inhibit the cardiac expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 induced by myocardial calcium overload.
