Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2010;33(24):11-12
Objective To evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle training in postpartum urinary incontinence. Methods A total of 355 postpartum women 6 weeks after delivery were randomly allocated to training group ( 182 cases) and control group ( 173 cases). The training group attended in one to one pelvic floor muscle training conduction. The control group received the customary information. The two groups finished the questionaire 6 months after delivery to understand the general state of health, duration of pregnancy, urinary tract symptom and urinary incontinence 6 weeks,6 months after delivery. Results Ten cases failed, 4 cases lost in the training group and 6 cases lost in the control group. Significantly fewer women in the training group were reported stress urinary incontinence compared with the control group 6 months after delivery [11.3%(19/168) vs. 21.0%(35/167)](P<0.01). Significantly fewer frequency of nocturia in the training group was reported compared with the control group 6 months after delivery [(1.3 ± 0.3) times vs.(2.2 ± 0.4) times ] (P < 0.01 ). Conclusion Pelvic floor muscle training plays a positive role in postpartum urinary incontinence.

Objective To study the 3D CRT plan for hepatic tumors. Methods The 3DCRT plan of 50 cases of primary or metastasis hepatic cancer were designed according to the request of the doctors for CTV and the restricted receiving dose of the peripheral normal sensitive organs. The best plan was chosen referring the dose-volume histogram. Results By using ICRU dose reference point (the central point of tumor) as the dose 100 % and 80 % ~ 90 % dose line can be surrounded above 90 % of the PTV(planning tumor volume). The degree of 90 % dose line surrounding PTV was related to the scope of target area and its location. Conclusion The focus in different localization can be treated with different design when devise the treatment plan of the hepatic tumors. The reaction to radiotherapy was directly influenced by the volume of dosage of radiation to the normal hepatic tissues, and it also had great influence to the choice of prescription dose and the dose division style.

Objective To investigate the cause of pleural effusion in elderly patients on mechanical ventilation, and to analyze the effect of mechanical ventilation on hemodynamics. Methods 100 elderly patients admitted to our hospital from Jan 2002 to Oct 2004 who had received mechanical ventilation were studied retrospectively and logistic regression analysis of risk factors of pleural effusion before and after mechanical ventilation were performed. 8 patients of them were examined by ultrasonic cardiography before and during mechanical ventilation. Results Before mechanical ventilation there were 27 patients complicated with pleural effusion. After mechanical ventilation another 33 patients were showed to develop pleural effusion. Totally 60 mechanical ventilated patients had pleural effusion. The analysis of logistic regression showed that cardiac insufficiency was significantly correlated with pleural fluid in the patients receiving mechanical ventilation. The transmembrane pressure of tricuspid valve was increased during mechanical ventilation. Conclusion Incidence of pleural effusion increased, hemodynamics changed and the transmembrane pressure of tricuspid valve increased with mechanical ventilation in the elderly patients. Cardiac insufficiency was an important risk factor of pleural effusion.

Objective To observe nasal resistance in healthy adult people and patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), comparing the changes in nasal resistance after nCPAP treatment, and to explore the role of nasal resistance in development of OSAHS and the effect of nCPAP on nasal resistance. Methods Detection of nasal resistance was performed in 11 healthy people and 40 patients with OSAHS after completion of polysomnography (PSG). Three weeks after treatment with nCPAP, the patients received polysomnography and detection of nasal resistance again. Results Nasal resistance was higher in patients with OSAHS than healthy people [(0.27 ± 0.9)Pa/(cm3·s) vs. (0.21 ± 0.7)Pa/(cm3·s), t=-2.048, and P<0.05];nasal resistance was not related with age, BMI, neck circumference, waistline, AHI, MinSO2, and ODI (P>0.05). MinSO2, AHI and ODI were markedly improved three weeks after nCPAP therapy (P<0.05). Nasal resistance was increased from (0.27 ± 0.1) Pa/(cm3·s) to (0.43 ± 0.3)Pa/(cm3·s) after treatment (t = -2.733, P < 0.05). Conclusions Increased nasal resistance is one of risk factors for pathogenesis of OSAHS. Nasal resistance is not related with the severity of OSAHS. nCPAP can lead to an elevation in nasal resistance.

OBJECTIVE To investigate nosocomial pulmonary infection in elderly patients receiving long-term(at least 30 day) mechanical ventilation. METHODS Retrospective survey was carried out in the aged patients with long-term mechanical ventilation,who admitted from Jan 2002 to Jun 2005.The risk factors of common pneumonia were studied by means of Logistic regression analysis. RESULTS In 69 cases with long-term mechanical ventilation,53 patients were caught common pneumonia(76.81%).Pulmonary tuberculosis and plural tuberculosis were(7(10.14%)) and(1(1.14%)),respectively.Nontuberculous mycobacterial infection was identified in 3 cases(4.35%).There were 8 cases suffered from Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia(11.59%).The length of mechanical ventilation and aspiration seemed to be the important risk factors for the development of common bacterial pneumonia. CONCLUSIONS The most significant preventive measures of common pneumonia include short mechanical ventilation and prevention of aspiration of gastric contents.Mycobacterium tuberculosis,nontuberculous mycobacteria and P.carinii induced pneumonia also should be considered in the elderly with(long-term) mechanical ventilation.
