Method Children with acute laryngitis were divided into PUL group and DEX group according their therapy methods. The curative effects and recurrence time were compared. Results The efficiency rate in PUL group was significantly higher than in DEX group (P<0.05). The therapy 3 d and post-therapy dyspnea, hoarseness, bark-like cough and stridor score in PUL group were significantly lower than in DEX group (P<0.05), and the recurrence time of dyspnea, hoarseness, bark-like cough and stridor was significantly shorter (P<0.05). Conclusion Pulmicort could significantly improve the symptoms and signs for children with acute laryngitis with few side effects. Its curative effects are better than dexamethasone.

Objective To describe the patients′satisfaction with multimodal analgesia management after total knee arthroplasty. Methods 110 patients with total knee arthroplasty selected from February 2013 to February 2014 were recruited to complete a questionnaire, which was composed of the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) , the Houston Pain Outcome Instrument (HPOI), and the Scale of Perceptions of Patients′Pain. Results VAS scores at different times were ranged from (2.14±1.21) points to (1.19±0.62) points, mean rating for general satisfaction with pain management was 80.04% (136.06/170.00), satisfaction with education on pain control was only 63.20% (37.92/60.00). Patients with different age and educational level of satisfaction with pain control had significant differences (P<0.05). Patients who thought relieving pain was harmful was 56.4% (62/110), the patients who did not understand the impact of pain on the body was 62.7% (69/110), the patients who did not understand the common methods of analgesia was 59.1%(65/110), the patients who did not understand the adverse reactions of pain measures was 63.6% (70/110). Conclusions Patients′satisfaction with the analgesic effect of multimodal analgesia is higher after total knee arthroplasty, while satisfaction with education on pain control was lower. Nurses should strengthen health education to patients with total knee arthroplasty about knowledgement of multimodal analgesia.

Objective To investigate the value of serum thyroglobulin (Tg) and antithyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) in differentiated thyroid carcinoma complicated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis after thyroid ablation.Methods Serum Tg and TgAb levels and the status of illness in 154 differentiated thyroid carcinoma patients with coexistent Hashimoto's thyroiditis and confirmed pathology after surgery followed by remnant ablation were performed during three years follow up.Tg and TgAb levels were assessed by chemiluminescent immunoassay assay.The cases were divided into three groups (according to the level of Tg):Tg ≤ 1 μg/L group,1 μg/L＜Tg ≤ 10 μg/L group and 10 μg/L＜Tg≤ 100 μg/L group.TgAb＞40 kIU/L was considered as positive,Cox's proportional hazard model was used to analyse prognostic value in different levels of Tg and TgAb for disease-free survival and recurrence.Results Compared with 1 μg/L＜Tg≤ 10 μg/L group and 10 μg/L＜Tg≤ 100 μg/L group,the relative risk in reflecting cancer recurrence (TgAb＞40 kIU/L) in Tg ≤ 1 μg/L group was 27.000 (95 ％ CI 6.727-108.374).The value of TgAb＞40 kIU/L in Tg≤ 1 μg/L group was greatly increased and highly correlated with metastasis.However,In the condition of Tg＞ 1 μg/L,the disease will be based on the level of TgAb.Conclusion The value of TgAb＞40 kIU/L in Tg ≤ 1 μg/L group seems to be the optimal cutoff value correlated with recurrence and metastasis of differentiated thyroid carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: At present, there are many drugs and therapeutic methods for dementia at home and abroad. Both xingding and piracetam are the kind of improver for circulatory obstruction and protector for nerve cells and can slow down the functional decline of brain tissue and provide improvement for cognitive deficit.OBJECTIVE: To observe the improvement of allied application of xingding and piracetam on cognitive function in treatment of vascular dementia.DESIGNS: Case-controlled study based on patients.SETTING: Neurological Department in Affiliated Hospital of Henan University. PARTICIPANTS: Totally 91 cases of vascular dementia hospitalized in Neurological Department of First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University from October 2000 to March 2002, which were randomized into treatment group of 48 cases and the control of 43 cases.INTERVENTIONS: In treatment group, xingding injection of 20 mL and piracetam of 8 g were administrated and 50 g/L glucose injection 250 mL was added respectively for intravenous injection, once daily and 14 days made one session. In the control, piracetam of 8 g was prescribed with 50 g/L glucose injection 250 mL added for intravenous injection, once daily and 14 days made one session. There was no any difference in other medication treatment. One month later after treatment of two groups, he patients were re-examined with mini-mental state examination(MMSE) and Hasegawa dementia scale(HDS) was used to assess the cogitative improvement and neurological defect scale(NDF) was used to analysis the improvement of neurological functional symptoms.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Scores of MMSE, HDS and NDF in two groups. ② Analysis on therapeutic effects.RESULTS: Totally 91 cases entered the analysis on the results. There was no significant difference in MMSE and HDS before treatment in two groups. In treatment group, after treatment, MMSE and HDS scores were (23.26±5.12) and(2.78±3.46) respectively, indicating significant difference(t=4.79, 15.44, P＜0.01) compared with the control(19.14 ±3.21)and(15.21±2.29) . NDF score was 13.68±7.83 after treatment and the significant difference was presented compared with the control(17.33 ±8.81) . The total effective rate(total remarkable rate + progression) was 92% in the treatment group and was 56% in the control. By the comparison between two groups, the difference was significant(χ2= 15.48, P＜0.01).CONCLUSION: After treatment, MMSE score in treatment group was higher than that in the control and HDS score was lower than that in the control, explaining that xingding allied piracetam significantly improves cogitative function in the treatment of vascular dementia.

Objective: The fibrogenicity of fur dust was studied in rat lung tissues. Methods: Intratracheal instillation of fur dust, morphologic examination of lungs and analysis of collagen content were performed in Wistar rats. Results: Morphologic examination revealed that the earliest changes consisted of alveolar edema, increased numbers of intraalveolar macrophages, and marked thickening of interalveolar septa with mixed cellular infiltrate. After sixth months, there was moderate thickening of the alveolar walls and the peribronchioli. After 12 months, interstitial positive fibrosis of the alveolar wall and the peribronchioli were weakly seen. In the carding dust group (silica content 17.6%), interstitial nodules were observed composed of fibroblasts, reticular fibers, and collagen fibers. Electron microscopic examination also showed that alveolar walls became thickened and collagen fiber bundles were seen around bronchioles and small vessels in the carding groups after 12 months. At all stages of analysis, the collagen content in lungs of the fur dust groups was significantly higher than that of the control group. Conclusions: Our study suggested that fur dust might induce weak interstitial fibrosis in the lung.
