Objective To analyze the related factors of medical order compliance in patients with chronic prostatitis. Methods 482 patients with chronic prostatitis were investigated by using the National Institutes of Health chronic prostatitis symptom index(NIH-CPSI)、Eysenck personality qusetionnaire( EPQ)and the self-de-signed medical order compliance questionnaire and the patients' disease characteristics and personality were also analyzed.The related factores of medical order compliance in patients were analyzed through hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Results Patients with chronic pwstatitis were younger and their disease condition was seri-ous. Their personality was introverted. They had many psychological problems, such as anxiety, depression, sus-pect, et al. All these were related with patients' compliance. Conclusions Attention should be paid to the patients' personality, and psychotherapy should be given to patients with introverted personality to improve pa-tients' compliance,so that the treatment effect will be increased for patients with chronic prostatitis.

Objective To investigate the effect of batroxobin on the plasma levels of endothelin (ET) and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI). Methods 60 patients with ACI were randomly divided into therapy group(n = 30) and control group(n = 30),500 ml of 5% GS plus 1.0g ramme of Troxerutin was intravenously dripped par day and ticlopidine 250mg/day in the control group. Based on the control group therapy,Batroxobin was intravenously dripped with 10U on the 1st day and 5U on the 3rd and 5th day for seven days. The plasma levels of ET and CGRP were detected pre and post treatment by radioimmunoassay. Results Plasma levels of ET and CGRP in batroxobin therapy group post treatment ( 81.25±27.38 ) ; ( 44. 13±13.30) ng/L were significantly different from those pre treatment(109. 83±38.24) ; (24. 73±13.59) ng/L (all P＜0. 01 ) ,and were also significantly different from those post treatment in the control group(98.07±30. 39) ; (37.02±12. 41 )ng/L (all P＜0. 01 ). Conclusion Batroxobin can accommodate the equilibration between ET and CGRP, and protect brain cell and blood vessel endothelial cell.

OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy of Xinyi biyan pills combined with budilaide in the treatment of aller-gic rhinitis and its effects on related inflammatory factors. METHODS:A total od 120 patients with allergic rhinitis were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 60 cases in each group. Control group was treated with Budesonide nasal spray,spraying once each nostril(64 μg/spray),2 times a day. Observation group was additionally treated with Xinyi biyan pills 3 g,3 times a day. Treatment course lasted for 4 weeks. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed and compared. The changes of total score of clinical symptoms and signs were observed before and after treatment. The contents of IgE and LTE4 were deter-mined,and the occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:Three patients of observation group and 4 patients of control group fell of the study. Total response rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group,with statistical signifi-cance (84.21% vs. 73.21%,P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in total score of clinical symptoms and signs,IgE and LTE4 levels between 2 groups (P>0.05). After 2 and 4 weeks of treatment,total score of clinical symptoms and signs,IgE and LTE4 levels in 2 groups were significantly lower than before treatment,and the observation group was signifi-cantly lower than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLU-SIONS:Xinyi biyan pills combined with budesonide show good therapeutic efficacy for allergic rhinitis,improve clinical symp-toms and signs significantly and reduce inflammatory factors levels with good safety.

ObjectiveTo study streptococcus pneumonia capsular polysaccharide antibodies of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) in acute exacerbation and the feasibility of vaccination for patients with COPD.MethodsThe COPD in acute exacerbation without respiratory failure (RF)(COPD without RF group),COPD in acute exacerbation with RF (COPD with RF group),asthma (asthma group),healthy elderly examination(elderly examination group) and healthy youth examination (youth examination group) were selected,and each group had 15 cases.The levels of streptococcus pneumonia capsular polysaccharide antibodies IgG,IgM and IgA were measured in all groups.Results There was no significant difference in IgG among the five groups (P ＞ 0.05 ).The levels of IgM in COPD without RF group and elderly examination group were significantly lower than those in COPD with RF group,asthma group and youth examination group (0.554 ± 0.309 and 0.538 ± 0.327 vs.0.810 ± 0.387,0.887 ± 0.278 and 0.852 ± 0.305,P ＜ 0.05 ).Although the level of IgA in COPD without RF group was significantly lower than that in youth examination group(0.532 ±0.297 vs.0.930 ±0.502,P ＜0.05),there was no significant difference among the five groups.Conclusion Patients with COPD should inoculate pneumococcal vaccination.

In view of the problems that anesthesiology medical students have such as poor commu-nication awareness, lack of communication skills, lack of confidence, and so on, it is particularly important to improve the students’ doctor-patient communication ability, guarantee their medical quality and reduce the dispute between doctors and patients. In the teaching practice, we improve students’ ability of doctor-patient communication by paying more attention to the education of medical ethics, strengthening the train-ing of professional knowledge and skills, optimizing the curriculum structure, improving the quality of teachers, the implementation of case teaching , and establishing a comprehensive evaluation mechanism etc , and have got good results.

AIM: To study the regulatory effect two different estrogen reagents on expressions of estrogen receptor ? and ? in female rat hippocampus and cortex regions. METHODS: 12 cycles after ovariectomy, female rats were orally injected with premarin or progynova for 3 cycles before sacrificed. Semiquantitative RT-PCR was used to detect the ERs mRNA expression and SP immunohistochemistry was performed to measure the ERs protein distribution and expression. RESULTS: In premarin group, ER ? mRNA levels in both hippocampus and cortex tissues decreased significantly compared with control. ER ? protein level in hippocampus was lower than that in the control. However, ER ? protein level in cortex had no statistical difference. ER ? mRNA in the two regions and ER ? protein in cortex had no statistical differences compared with control, while ER ? protein level in hippocampus was higher than that in the control. In progynova group, both mRNA and protein levels of ER ? increased significantly in the two regions compared with the control, and ER ? mRNA level also increased in hippocampus, but ER ? mRNA level in cortex and ER ? protein levels in the above two regions showed no statistical differences. CONCLUSION: There were differential regulatory effects on ER ? and ER ? expression in female rat cognitive regions between the two different types of estrogen reagents, which may be one of the mechanisms of varied effects in different estrogen replacement therapy reagents.

AIM To study the effect of estrogen on the expression of amyloid precursor protein (APP) carboxyl terminal fragment in ovariectomized female rat hippocampus and cortex regions. METHODS Ovariectomized female rats were fed with Premarin or Progynova for 3 cycles before sacrificed. S P immunohistochemistry was performed to detect the APP C terminal fragment distribution, and semi quantitative H score was used to compare the expression. RESULTS APP C terminal fragment expression in both female rat hippocampus and cortex increased significantly after ovariectomy. Compared with ovariectomized control, C terminal fragment expression in the above regions decreased. It was even lower in progynova group than in premarin group. CONCLUSION Both premarin and progynova down regulate the APP C terminal expression in ovariectomized female rat hippocampus and cortex. The modulation of progynova is more effective.
