Objective To investigate the effects of the intellegent CO2 laser assisted Fisch stapedotomy with artificial stape prostheses in the treatment of otosclerosis.Methods A total of 28 patients with otosclerosis who had undergone the intellegent CO2 laser assisted Fisch stapedotomy with artificial stape prostheses were retrospectively e-valuated.The intellegent CO2 lasersare was used to vaporize stapedius tendon,posterior crus of stapes,and most importantly perforate stapes footplate.Bone and air conduction thresholds were determined at 0 .5 ,1 ,2 ,and 4 kHz preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively in all patients.Results No sustained vertigo or sensorineural hearing loss occurred postoperatively.There were no statistically significant differences between preoperative and postopera-tive average bone conduction thresholds.Preoperative and postoperative air bone gap were 30.38(23.13,39.38)dB HL,9.75(8.25,10)dB respectively and the postoperative results were significantly different from the preopera-tive.Conclusion The intellegent CO2 laser can be used safely in stapes footplate surgery and is well suited for trea-ting otosclerosis.

Objective To investigate the use of feeding support and influencing factors of oral feeding among premature infants. Methods Totally 103 premature infants with oral feeding problems hospitalized during June to December 2014 were enrolled. The postmenstrual age and feeding support were observed at the time of initiation oral feeding and full oral feeding. Moreover, the progress and performance of oral feeding, the daily increase in weight, the time of body weight regain, the time of assisted ventilation and length of hospital stay and so on were calculated. Results There were 96 premature infants using feeding support at the time of initiation oral feeding and 58 premature infants at the time of full oral feeding. Logistic regression analysis showed that birth gestational age(OR=2.195, P<0.01), birth weight(OR=1.003, P<0.01), severity of illness(OR=0.121, P<0.01) and feeding tolerance(OR=0.007, P<0.01)were important factors of oral feeding among premature infants. Conclusions The premature infants with small gestational age at birth, low birth weight, severity of illness, and feeding intolerance are high risk populations of oral feeding. Nurses should take timely risk assessment and interventions to reduce the occurrence of stopping oral feeding.

Aim To study the anticonvulsive and antiepileptic mechanism of ?-asarone.Methods ?-asarone was intraperitoneally injected (ip) in mice and acute epileptic mouse models were made after 30 min.Change of ATPase,index of antioxidation,and variation of amino acid (AA) contents in brain of epileptic mice were used to investigate ?-asarone′s anticonvulsive and antiepileptic mechanism.Results For ?-asarone treated epileptic mice,when compared with model group,glutamate/gamma-aminobutyric acid (Glu/GABA) was greatly decreased (P

Objective To evaluate the association between hyperglycaemia at admission and in-hospital outcomes in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Three hundreds and fifty-four patients with AMI and underwent PCI were divided into 3 groups according to the glucose level on admission: group A (n=132), ＜7.80 mmol/L;group B (n=120), 7.80-11.00 mmol/L;group C (n=102), ≥11.00 mmol/L. Results Patients in group C had higher cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein and triglycerides levels than those in group A. Compared with group A, there were higher incidence of multi-vascular diseases and higher corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) in angiography in group B and group C. Cardiac events and in-hospital mortality in group B and group C were higher than those of group A, while statistical difference was found between group C and group A. Conclusion Elevated admission glucose level in AMI patients with primary PCI is associated with worse prognosis, increased major adverse cardiac events and higher in-hospital mortality.

A cross-sectional study in 116 patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was carried out by using the short-form-36 health survey (SF-36), serf-rating anxiety scale ( SAS), and self-rating depression scale (SDS) from January 2008 to April 2008 in our reproduction center. In comparison with the healthy controls, the PCOS patients showed decreased quality of life (QOL) for all items of SF-36 (P<0.05) except for body pain or role-physical scales. The differences in SAS and SDS between the PCOS and the healthy controls were statistically significant (P<0.05). Our study results confirm the negative impacts of PCOS over the quality of life;subfertility, obesity, hirsutism, acne, complications, menstrual irregularity and educational levels might contribute to the reduced QOL.

Objective To investigate the quality of life of elderly caregivers and its factors. Methods Elderly caregivers living in Changzhi City were enrolled in this study. 36-item short-form (SF-36) health survey and Activity of Daily Living Scale ( ADL) were used as study tools. The data was analyzed by statistical description,t test or multiple regression. Results Those with score of quality of life reaching 72. 1 to 117. 0 accounted for 98. 8%. The total score and score of eight dimensions of SF-36 showed statistically significant difference between different daily living activity groups ( P < 0.05) . The state of health and self-care ability of the elderly imposed a major impact on eight dimensions of SF-36. Age, sex, level of education, marital status and wage had different impact on each dimension of SF-36. Conclusion The quality of life of elderly caregivers is at a medium level. The main factors of quality of live of elderly caregiver are their state of health and self-care ability of the elderly.

Objective To investigate the status of life quality in the elderly in Shanxi Province Changzhi City, and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods The quality of life, activities of daily living and status of community services were measured simultaneously by 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). Activities of Daily Living Scale, Community Healthy Needs Scale and survey results were used and analyzed using t-test, correlation and stepwise regression analysis. Results According to the criterion of life quality in the elderly which were proposed by Zhang Lei, the quality of life in the elderly scored 72. 1-117.0, reached 98.5%. The quality of life in the elderly was impacted by the ability of caring oneself, marital status, degree of culture, economic situation and so on. The demand rate for health guidance and periodic physical examination was higher. Conclusions The quality of life in the elderly is at a medium level. There is a wide gap between the demand of community healthy services and the utilization of community healthy services.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Methods The clinical data of one child with TSC were collected. The clinical features and gene mutation were analyzed. Results A 36-day-old girl had abnormal nodules found by echocardiography, which was considered multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas. There were multiple hypomelanotic macules distributed over the skin surface of the trunk and legs. Cranial MRI showed cortical nodules, subependymal nodules and cerebral white matter radial migration line. A mutation in the TSC2 gene (c.4541-4544delCAAA) was found by second generation high-throughput sequencing technology and tuberous sclerosis complex was confirmed. Conclusion Gene detection is helpful in the early diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis complex.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of simvastatin on cobalt choride ( CoCl2 ) -induced hypoxia and reoxygenation injury on alveolar type Ⅱ cells and the underlying mechanisms.Methods CoCl2 was used to establish the hypoxia and reoxygenation injury model on AT Ⅱ cells.Blank,control and variant doses simvastatin-treated groups ( 5,10,20,30,50,100 μ mol/L) were designed in the present study.The proliferation of AT Ⅱ cells was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 ( CCK-8 ) assay.The percentage of apoptotic cells was assessed by flow cytometry AV/PI double-staining.The protein levels of surfactant protein-C (SP-C) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in AT Ⅱ cells was determined by Western blot.Results As compared with the control group,pretreatment with low dose (5 - 20 μmol/L),but not high dose simvastatin (50 - 100 μmol/L) markedly reduced A549 cells apoptosis,and increased their proliferation and the protein levels of SPC and PCNAin vitro.The protective effect could be reversed in vitro by L-mevalonate,a simvastatin competitive inhibitor,which indicated that the inhibition of mevalorate pathway was involved in the simvastatin induced AT Ⅱ cells function restoration.Condusion Low doses simvastatin reversed CoCl2-induced hypoxia and reoxygenation injury of AT Ⅱ cells.The inhibition of mevalonate pathway contributed to simvastatin induced AT Ⅱ cells function restoration.
