Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2012;21(6):537-538
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 elucidate the effect of postoperative early enteral nutrition support (ENS) on cellular immunity function and nutritional status of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients.Methods Twenty patients with GI cancer were at random divided into two groups: enteral nutrition group (EN-group, 10 cases), parental nutrition group (PN-group, 10 cases). PN-group was given total parental nutrition (TPN).In EN-group,Since the 1st postoperative day Neutrinos(r) was infused, the infused volume was increasingly added from 500 ml/d to 1 500 ml/d, the infused rate was step-by-step increased from 21 ml/h to 63ml/h. T-cell subgroup, NK cell, IL-2, PA, RBP were measured in the day before operation and on the 2nd ?4th ?8th postoperative day.Results ① The serum RBP,PA levels were obviously decreased postoperatively (P

In order to study the morphclogic changes of cardiac conduction system in six cases of acute myocardial infarctions fibronectin (Fn), myoglobin(Mb)and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were study by immunohistochemical method. It was observed that strong positive Fn staining were present in 3 cases, positive in 1 case, weak positive in 1 case; weak VEGF positive and depletion of Mb in all cases. It is indecated that the Fn staining is sensitive and was stable, and easily observed, and can be used as a good marker for diagnosis of the injury of the cardiac conduction system in acute myocardial infarction.

Object To set up the quantitative method of amygdalin in decoctions prepared from various combinations of the recipe named Mahuang Decoction by HPLC and to determine the change of amygdalin contents in different decoctions and study the influence of compatibility on the contents of amygdalin in decoctions. Methods By L 8(27) orthogonal design and statistic analysis (SPSS 10.0), eight decoctions with Semen Armeniacae Amarum were prepared and analyzed, their amygdalin contents were determined by HPLC. Results The method was simple, accurate, and sensitive and was not interfered by other constituents in the prescription, it can be used to determine the contents of amygdalin in Mahuang Decoction. Influence of Herba Ephedrae, Ramulus Cinnamomin, and Radix Glycyrrhizae on the contents of amygdalin in decoctions were insignificant. Interactions between two of three separately were insignificant too. Conclusion The content of amygdalin in Mahuang Decoction is not markedly influenced by Herba Ephedrae, Ramulus Cinnamomin, and Radix Glycyrrhizae.

AIM:It is suggested that the peptidergic nerves containing substance P(SP),calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP),vasoactive intestinal peptide(VIP),neuropeptide Y(NPY) and tyrosine hydroxylase(TOH) co-exist in bone tissues and distribute in the active bone metabolism area,indicating these peptidergic nerves are closely related with bone growth and development. In this study,the expression of neuropeptides in tibial callus of rats after brain injury was observed. METHODS:The experiment was conducted in the Experimental Animal Center of Guangxi Medical University from February to May 2007. ①130 male Wistar rats of 3-4 months old and 450-550 g were randomly divided into fracture group(n =60),brain injury plus fracture group(n =60) and control group(n =10). ②The right parietal bone of anesthetized rats was exposed,and bone window of 5 mm was opened 2 mm near median line,then moderate brain injury was made by sap pressure,and the rat models of tibial fracture were established. The fracture group was only subjected to cranial bone window,and the control group was not given any treatment. ③The distribution of neuropeptide in tibia and callus succession as well as fracture healing were observed by HE and immunohistochemical staining on postoperatively days 3,7,14,21,28,and 35 days. The callus area in brain injury plus fracture group and fracture group was detected by computed radiography(CR) at 14,21 and 28 days after operation. RESULTS:All 130 rats were involved in the result analysis. ①At early stage after brain injury,there were a quantity of fibrous callus and cartilaginous callus formation in brain injury and fracture group and many neuropeptides immunoreactive nerve fibers in callus were found. Strong immunoreactivites of CGRP,SP,VIP,NPY,TOH occurred to osteogenitor cells and chondroblast,which proliferated in thickened endothecium. ②In brain injury and fracture group on day 14,the chondrocyte group was enlarged and subperiosteum chondrocyte layer was thickened;on day 21,bone trabecula was significantly thickened,and cartilage islands were increased;on day 28,there were still quantity of fibrous callus and cartilaginous callus,and sparse woven bones surrounding chondrocyte groups. In fracture group,periosteal reaction was slight,and fibrous callus was few;osteogenesis in bone and cartilage occurred,but mainly in bone. Moreover,the fracture healing was remarkably later than brain injury and fracture group. ③Callus area in brain injury and fracture group was larger than that in fracture group on days 14 and 21(P

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.
