Objective To investigate the effects of different upper limb abduction angles on the occurrence of malposition of PICC into internal jugular vein. Methods Totally 210 cases of patients treated with PICCs for unilateral breast cancer of our hospital from August,2015 to January,2017 were randomly assigned to three groups with 70 cases in each group. The abduction angle of the upper limb for placement was set at 45° ,90° and 160° , respectively. We chose the basilic vein of the uninfected arm using modified Seldinger technique under the guidance of ultrasound for PICC,and malposition was confirmed by detecting the tip of PICC in internal jugular vein. Results The incidence rate of internal jugular venous dislocation in 45° group was 7.14%(5 cases) and 8.57% in 90° group (6 cases),and no internal jugular venous dislocation in 160° group. There was no statistically significant difference among 45°,90° and 160° groups(χ2=5.95,P>0.05). Significant differences of group comparisons for 45° v.s. 160° and 160° v.s. 90° were found (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between 45° and 90° groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Abduction angles of 45° ,90° and 160° can all be used for PICC placement. The abduction angle can be selected according to specific situation of patients instead of being limited to the standard abduction angle of 90°.

Objective We observed influence of different handgrip exercise on the changes of blood flow velocity and blood vessel diameter of basilic vein before and after the PICC placement and discuss the best model for handgrip exercise.Methods 60 patients with PICC were chosen and divided into group A,B and C with 20 patients in each groups.Group A received routine guidance on unarmed handgrip exercise,group B used electronic handgrip,the frequency was 25 times/min,the time period was 2 min with 4 times a day,once every 4 hours,group C adopted the same model as that of group B and 6 times a day,once every 3 hours.The venous blood flow velocity and blood vessel diameter was measured by pulsed Doppler ultrasound one hour before the PICC placement and one hour,1 day,3 days,7 days,10 days,14 days,21 days after placement.Results The venous blood flow velocity before and after PICC placement had statistically significant differences at different time points (F=2.934,P < 0.05).The effect of group B and C was better than that of the group A and group C showed the best effect.The blood vessel diameter before and after PICC placement had significant differences at different time points(F=3.940,P < 0.05).There was significant differences in the blood vessel diameter 1h before and 1h after PICC placement.Conclusions Handgrip exercise can effectively promote the upper limb venous blood flow velocity in patients with PICC,but shows little effect on the blood vessel diameter.Using the electronic hand grip in weak tap position,25 times/min,2 min every time,and 6 times a day (once every 3 hours),can obviously promote the upper limb venous blood flow velocity.

Objective To research the relationship between free/total prostate specific antigen (f/t PSA), PSA density(PSAD) and prostate cancer(PCa), to explore healthy middle and old-aged,the patients with BPH, the scope of reference value of PSA,frce PSA(fPSA), f/t PSA and PSAD in patients serum with PCa. Methods To de-tect 307 cases of healthy gerontism male,236 of BHP and 41 of PSA and fPSA in patients with PCa,to calcuLate f/t PSA and PSAD, to investigate the dependability between PSA ,I"PSA ,f/t PSA ,P SAD and healthy male, the patients ofBHP,the PCa ,to determine the scope of reference value PSA,fPSA,f/t PSA and PSAD fitting for Chinese. Results PSA and fPSA in patients with PCa are obviously higher than normal control(P <0.01). f/t PSA is obviously lower than the BPH and normal control(P < 0.01). When PSA is 9.25 and f/t PSA is 20%, there are better value of clini-cal diagnosis,when PSAD is 0.18 (AUC = 0.635), we can get best aceuration of diagnosis. Conclusions f/t PSA and PSAD are better than PSA in clinical diagnosis. When PSA is more than 9.25,f/t PSA is less than 20% or PSAD is more than 0.18 is significance for diagnosis. The normal reference value of PSA less than 9.25,f/t PSA more than 20%, PSAD less than 0.18 is fit for Chinese.

Objective:
To confirm early (6 hours) exercise in patients with partial hepatectomy is safe and feasible.
Methods:
The control group included 211 patients who qualified for partial liver resection before the accelerated rehabilitation surgery (ERAS), 218 patients with partial hepatectomy who met the entry criteria after the implementation of ERAS were taken as test group, get out of bed 24 hours after routine mission in control group, activity of 6 hours after operation in ERAS group. To observe the time of getting out of bed and the incidence of postoperative complications in 2 groups.
Results:
Comparison with control group, early exercise time of patients in ERAS group after surgery. The incidence of postoperative complications decreased was 14.3% (31/218) while 34.6%(73/211) of the control group. The difference was statistically significant (
