ObjectiveTo investigate different personality traits and psychological interventions'effect on the patients' anxiety in fiberbronchoscope examination.MethodsThe eysenck personality questionnaire(EPQ)scale and Zung self-rating anxiety scale(SAS) were used to assess the patients.The patients were randomly divided into experimental and control groups,the experimental group,respectively,the implementation of cognitive therapy and relaxation treatment of psychological intervention,psychological evaluation was investigated again before fiber bronchoscopy.ResultsThe scale showed that it had significant difference(P<0.05 ) between before and after the psychological intervention( before intervention:55.8 ± 1.50,54.9 ± 1.62,57.84 ± 2.13 ; after intervention:46.2 ± 1.38,45.3 ± 1.47,59.26 ± 2.41 ).The patients'personality trait was correlated with their anxiety(P<0.01 ).ConclusionsThe psychological intervention can be effective in reducing patients'anxiety,and it can help patients take the initiative to meet the inspection,improve the success rate of inspection.And different personality traits can effect on patients' anxiety level.
2.Statin: New hope for preventing and delaying thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy?
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2021;37(1):83-86
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy(TAO)is an organ-specific autoimmune disease. A series of symptoms related to it cause serious harm to the physical and mental health of patients, and then seriously affect their quality of life. However, there is stilly lack of specific treatment methods at present. Even after effective treatment, it is difficult to fully recover the appearance changes. Therefore, it is very important to avoid or reduce the risk factors associated with the occurrence and progress of TAO. Hypercholesterolemia, as one of the potential risk factors for the occurrence and progression of TAO, has been concerned by more clinical researchers. Recent studies have found that statins can significantly reduce the incidence of ophthalmopathy and the risk of ophthalmopathy progression in patients with Graves disease. Based on the inflammatory pathological mechanism of TAO, statins may become a new hope to prevent and delay the occurrence and progression of TAO.

Objective To develop a selective isolation media which has a high isolation ratio for Legionella.Methods We compared the growth of Legionella pneumonia on BCYE? plate (with DGVP), BCYE?(with GVPC) and BCYE? (with CCCV) by colony count and compared with BCYE? plate. The comparison of isolation ratio of Legionella pneumonia from air-conditions cooling water with 3 kinds of BCYE? plate containing different anti-reagents was performed.Results The results of colony count on BCYE? plate (with DGVP) and BCYE?(with GVPC) was identical with that on BCYE? plate at same concentration. But the result of colony count on BCYE? plate (with CCCV) was half of the former 2 kinds of plate. 5 strains of Legionella pneumonia isolated from 9 central air-condition cooling water were used by BCYE? plate (with DGVP) and BCYE? (with GVPC), while only 2 strains of Legionella pneumonia were isolated by BCYE? plate (with CCCV). Legionella pneumonia wasn′t detected by BCYE? plate.Conclusion BCYE? plate with antibiotics system of CCCV showed obvious suppression to Legionella pneumonia, and so that there was a low isolation ratio to Legionella pneumonia. But BCYE? plate with antibiotics system of DGVP and GVPC had a few suppression and showed a high isolatio ratio for Legionella pneumonia. Moreover, BCYE? plate with antibiotics system of DGVP and GVPC can effectively inhibit non-Legionella and increase isolation ratio of Legionella. They should be the first selection media for Legionella from environment and clinical samples.

To investigate the clinical characteristics of hypertension in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA), 112 cases of PA confirmed by pathological examination after operation were studied retrospectively. These included 111 cases of PA with unilateral adrenal adenoma and 1 case of bilateral adrenal adenoma. Incidence of hypertension in patients with PA was 100%. 14 3%, 37 5% and 48 2% of patients were at stage 1, 2 and 3 of hypertension, respectively. No relationship between hypertension and the age or duration of hypertension and the size of tumor. Complications of hypertension were found in 31 3% of patients with PA. Stroke was found in 4 5% patients, 3 6% patients with cerebral hemorrhage and 0 9% patients with cerebral infarction. Coronary artery disease as myocardial infarction was found in 1 8% of patients. Proteinuria and renal insufficiency were found in 22 3% of patients and 2 7% of patients, respectively. Complications of hypertension were independent of the age, duration of hypertension, the size of tumor, or preoperative highest systolic pressure and diastolic pressure. 83 9% of patients had taken antihypertensive drugs before operation, and 46 5% of patients still had persistent hypertension after operation. The results suggested that the incidence of hypertension in patients with PA was extremely high, and the majority of patients were suffering from moderate and severe hypertension. Complications of hypertension were common in patients with PA. Hypertension was difficult to control by using antihypertensive drugs before operation, and still persisted after operation in some of the patients with PA.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of surgical treatment for hilar cholangio-carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 89 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma surgically treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into 3 groups: radical resection(group A,n=23),palliative resection (group B,n=44) and external drainage operation (group C,n=22). Complications,operative mortality,survival rate and posttreatment quality of lire were compara-tively analyzed among the 3 groups. Results The rate of complications was significantly higher in group A than in group C (P<0.05). There was no marked difference in operative mortality between group A and group B (P>0.05). The 1-,2-and 3-year survival rates and scoring of quality of life were remarkably higher in group A than in other 2 groups (P<0. 001 and 0. 05). Conclusion Radical re-section of hilar cholangiocarcinoma can improve the long-term survival and significantly enhance quality of life of the patients after operation. For patients receiving unradical resection, palliative surgical man-agement can improve the long-term survival and enhance quality of life.
