Objective To explore the effect of microsurgery for refractory temporal lobe epilepsy . Methods A retrospective analysis was made in 102 patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy from January 2005 to December 2011.The patients received comprehensive preoperative localization , intraoperative frontotemporal pterional incision , and microsurgical resection of epileptogenic focus .The efficacy was evaluated according to the Engel standards .Indications such as self-care ability, learning ability, and working ability were used to evaluate the quality of life , which were recorded and compared before and after operation . Results Follow-up was accomplished in all the 102 cases for a duration of 1 year and 9 months to 7 years.There were no mortality and serious complications .The effects evaluations at 1 year after operation showed complete disappearance of symptoms ( levelⅠ) in 61 cases (59.8%), almost disappearance (level Ⅱ) in 17 cases (16.7%), symptoms improvement more than 75% (level Ⅲ) in 13 cases (12.7%),and ineffective (level Ⅳ) in 11 cases (10.8%), bearing an effective rate of 89.2% (91/102) and a good-and-excellent rate of 76.5%(78/102).At one year and nine months postoperatively , 6 patients could not take care of themselves , 32 patients obtained partial self-care, and 64 patients had complete self-care,as compared with which there were 21 patients, 67 patients, and 14 patients preoperatively, respectively, having significant differences before and after surgery (Z =-7.001, P =0.000). Statistical significances were obtained before and after operation in 67 cases of children and adolescents with learning ability ( Z=-3.747, P =0.000) and in 35 adult cases with working ability ( Z =-2.564, P =0.010). Conclusions Microsurgical treatment is an effective method for refractory temporal lobe epilepsy .Patients ’ quality of life can get significant improvement after surgery.

Objective To evaluate the psychological intervention ettectiveness ot socioenvironmental therapyfor heroin addicts accepting compulsory isolation.Methods Totally 100 male heroin addicts accepting compulsory isolation and Labour Camp Rehabilitation were selected and randomly assigned to socioenvironmental therapeutic group (ST group,50 cases) and control group (CT group,50 cases).A two-month socioenvironmental therapy was selectively proceeding in ST group by a same psychological team,while CT group still received conventional rehabilitation.During the 6-month follow-up,self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scal (SDS) and self-made questionnaires were used every 3 months,to statistically estimate psychological status of subjects.Results Before treatment,no statistically significant difference between the two groups;after treatment,SDS score of CT group was 56.16 ± 9.12,and was lower than that in ST group(48.28-± 9.55) (P ＜ 0.01) ; SAS score of ST group was 46.28 ± 7.78,and was lower than that in CT group (50.72 ± 8.32) (P ＜ 0.01).In the 3-month follow-up evaluation,depression,anxiety scores in CT and ST group were significantly lower,the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01) ; 6 months after treatment,depression,anxiety score showed was significant difference between two groups(P＜ 0.01).Conclusion Group psychotherapy especially socioenvironmental therapy is quick and long-acting in improving the psychological status of heroin addicts in aspects of depression and anxiety levels,which is distinctly evidenced by the short-term and long-term curative results.

Objective In this study,we aimed at investigating the clinical,laboratory and management characteristics of adolescent-onset SLE patients compared with adult-onset SLE patients.Methods 470 fe- male patients with SLE were divided into two subgroups:adolescent-onset SLE patients and adult-onset SLE patients.The analyzed variables included clinical,laboratory parameters,damage index and outcome charac- teristics.Results In 470 female patients with SLE,there were 98(20.85%)adolescent-onset SLE patients. The following manifestations occurred more frequently in adolescent-onset SLE patients:malar rash,cutaneous vasculitis,proteinuria and abnormal liver function.Adolescent-onset SLE patients had more severe disease features and had significantly higher mean value of SLEDAI.Mortality was higher in adolescent-onset SLE pa- tients than aduh-onset SLE patients.Renal and blood system were the organs that most frequently involved. Conclusion Adolescent-onset SLE patients accounts for roughly 20.85% of all SLE cases.It is necessary to pay more attention to adolescent-onset SLE patients because the management for them is usually more difficult and the prognosis is usually poorer than aduh-onset SLE patients.

Objective To evaluate the application of osteoporosis self-assessment tool for Asians (OSTA) in screening of osteoporosis for postmenopausal women in community.Methods Total 793 postmenopausal women were included.OSTA were calculated and bone mineral density (BMD)was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).The correlation of OSTA index with DXA results was analyzed.Results The prevalence of osteoporosis and osteopenia was 18.3％ (145/793) and 47.7％(378/793) respectively,the remaining 270 women had normal bone mass (34.0％).According to OSTA index the rate of low-risk,medium-risk,high-risk osteoporosis groups were 61.9％ (491/793),29.5％(234/793) and 8.6％ (68/793),respectively.The BMD measured by DXA was positively correlated with OSTA index(r =0.559,P =0.000).The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of OSTA for diagnosing osteoporosis was 0.736.Taking-1 as cut off value,the sensitivity and specificity of OSTA in diagnosis of osteoporosis was 73.1％ (106/145) and 69.8％ (452/648),respectively.Conclusion OSTA can be used as an effective index for screening of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women in community.

ObjectiveTo improve the teaching quality of medical humanity education in medical university.MethodsA cluster sampling survey was given to 448 sophomores who studied the outline of medical humanities course in military medical university,and the data were descriptively and statistically analyzed.ResultsThe survey shows that 90％ sophomores satisfy with this course,95％ sophomores understand the importance of medical humanity education,and the students have more requirements on education resources and teaching ways.ConclusionOutline of medical humanities course is important to cultivate the medical humanity spirit of medical students,and the course still needs more improvements.

Objective To investigate the clinical feature of fibercolonscopy in children.Methods Olympus PCF-20 and Olympus(PSD-20) were used for all examinations and treatments after bowel preparation and anesthesia.Pathological change was observed,then took pictures,and biopsy was done.Intestine polyps underwent electrocision.Results Fibercoloscopy was performed on 243 children(male 177,female 66).Age ranged from 1 to 18 years,with an average of 6.74 years.The cecum was reached in 232 of 243 cases.Abnormal findings were seen in 116(47.74%) of the cases.There were large intestine polyps in 87(35.80%) cases.All cases underwent electrocision.One hundred and fifty-seven polyps were removed with satisfactory results.Conclusion Fibercoloscopy is effective and safe in diagnosis and treatment in children with intestine diseases.

Objective To study emptying of gallbladder in children with functional dyspepsia(FD),and to investigate correlation of their helicobacter pylori(Hp) status and gallbladder emptying rate.Methods Sixty children with FD were studied,including 30 Hp-ne-(gative) and 30 Hp-positive children.Thirty Hp-positive children received triple eradication therapy 1 week.After 4 weeks,the Hp tests were taken again,27 children became Hp-negative,and the others were still positive eliminated from the study.The difference between the above groups in gallbladder volumes before breakfast and postprandial gallbladder emptying rate were compared.Results The gallbladder volumes before breakfast were bigger and the emptying rate of postprandial gallbladder of children with FD were lower than those of normal controls(P0.05).Conclusions Delayed emptying of gallbladder may cause FD in children.Hp infection isn′t associated with the gallbladder emptying rate.

OBJECTIVETo compare the effect and impact of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) and 120-W thulium: YAG vapoenucleation of the prostate (ThuVEP) on erectile function in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed 93 cases of symptomatic BPH treated by HoLEP or 120 W ThuVEP. We made comparisons between the two groups of patients in the baseline and postoperative clinical and surgical indexes as well as their IPSS, quality of life (QOL), maximum flow rate (Qmax), postvoid residual urine volume (PVR), and IIEF-EF scores before surgery and during the 12-month follow-up.

RESULTSThuVEP, in comparison with HoLEP, achieved a significantly shorter operation time ([57.6 +/- 12. 8] vs. [70.4 +/- 21.8] min, P = 0.001) and a higher laser efficiency ([0.71 +/- 0.18] vs. [0.62 +/- 0.19] g/min, P = 0. 021). At 1, 6, or 12 months of follow-up, no significant differences were observed in IPSS, OOL, Omax, and PVR between the two groups (P > 0.05). Both the HoLEP and ThuVEP groups showed low incidences of complications and remarkably improved IIEF-EF scores at 12 months postoperatively, but with no significant differences (both P > 0.05). However, in those with relatively normal erectile functions before operation, the mean IIEF-EF score was reduced from 22.8 +/- 2.2 preoperatively to 21.0 +/- 2.7 after HoLEP, (P = 0.036).

CONCLUSIONBoth HoLEP and 120W ThuVEP are effective and safe in the treatment of BPH. Compared with HoLEP, 120 W ThuVEP has even a higher laser efficiency. However, neither can significantly improve erectile function, and HoLEP may have a short-term negative impact on the relatively normal erectile function of the patient.

Objective To observe the incidence and the influencing factors of kidney insufficiency in acute cerebral infarction patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Methods From January 2013 to January 2015,266 consecutive acute cerebral infarction patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation admitted to the Department of Neurology,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. Renal function was assessed by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR),eGFR <60ml/(min·1.73 m2 ) was defined as renal insufficiency,and were divided into a renal insufficiency group (n = 36)and a non-renal insufficiency group (n = 230). The incidence of kidney insufficiency and its influencing factors in acute cerebral infarction patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation were observed. Results (1)In 266 acute cerebral infarction patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation,the prevalence of renal insufficiency was 13. 5% (n = 36). The proportion of age (≥65 years)of the renal insufficiency group was higher than that of the non-renal insufficiency group. There was significant difference (94. 4%[34 / 36]vs. 70. 0%[161 / 230];P = 0. 002). There were no significantly differences in general information of others (all P >0. 05). (2)Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that the age (≥65 years)was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of renal insufficiency in acute cerebral infarction patients with atrial fibrillation (OR,1. 147,95% CI 1. 087 -1. 209;P < 0. 01),and the histories of hypertension (OR,0. 870,95% CI 0. 362-2. 089;P = 0. 755),diabetes mellitus (OR,1. 078,95% CI 0. 403 -2. 883;P = 0. 882 ), and hyperlipidemia (OR,1. 666,95% CI 0. 645 - 4. 302;P = 0. 292 )were not associated with renal insufficiency in cerebral infarction patients with atrial fibrillation. Conclusions The incidence of renal insufficiency in cerebral infarction patients with atrial fibrillation is higher. Age (≥65 years)is an independent risk factor for renal insufficiency in this type of patients.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for further promoting the implementation ofseparation of prescribing and dis-pensingpolicy which fit China's national conditions. METHODS:Based on literature review,informant interview,and filed in-vestigation the development ofseparation of prescribing and dispensingwere compared between typical eastern and western coun-tries. Constraints ofseparation of prescribing and dispensingin China were explored,international successful experiences were summarized to inspire appropriate implementation of this policy in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:There are four con-straints in the implementation ofseparation of prescribing and dispensingin China. Firstly,the legal foundation is yet established for the professional development of pharmacists. Secondly,the medicine pricing and hospital financing systems are unreasonable. Thirdly,patients'ownership of prescriptions and right of dispensing options are monopolized by hospitals. Fourthly,safety of medi-cines use is yet ensured.Separation of prescribing and dispensingshould follow the rules of social and economic development and should be adjusted to adapt local conditions.Separation of prescribing and dispensingpolicy itself may not help to achieve the objectives of cost containment and rational use of medicines. To achieve the intended objectives,legislation of Pharmacist Law should also be accelerated to clearly define the role of pharmacist and guide the behavior of prescribers with economic levers.
