Objective To confirm whether community management of hypertension could improve blood pressure control in Chongqing.Methods Cluster sampling method was used to select 5283 adults from 20 community healthcare centers in Chongqing.Matched t test was used to analyze the changes of blood pressure before and after the intervention.x2 test analysis was performed to compare the rate of normal blood pressure.Results The average age of 5283 participants was (60.5 ± 11.0) years old.Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were significantly decreased after intervention (total population:t values were 16.98 and 13.80,respectively; male:t values were 12.58 and 10.66,respectively; female:t values were 11.60 and 9.10,respectively; all P ＜ 0.05).The most significant decrease in SBP was found in 50-59 y age group (t =15.29,P ＜0.05),followed by 40-49 y age group (t =9.22,P ＜0.05).The control rate of hypertension was increased by 5.3％ after 1 year's intervention (x2 =134.5,P＜0.05),except for 60-69 y age group and ≥70 y age group (x2 values were 2.5 and 1.7,respectively ; both P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Our results show that standardized management of hypertension in communities can decrease the level of blood pressure and increase the control rate of hypertension.

Objective To explore cost of standard operation procedure of primary public healthcare services.Methods Standard operation procedure of primary public healthcare services was put forward according to national basic public healthcare service standards (2011 edition) in 2012.Random sampling method was used to choose participants from two community sanitary service centers,two township heahhcare centers and one maternity and child heahhcare hospital.Service standard operation procedure was used to measure human cost and supportive cost of public healthcare services.Results Management of 10 thousand patients who had different diseases needed various numbers of medical staff (MS),such as health profile needed 3.4 MS,hypertension management needed 10.8 MS,diabetes management needed 10.6 MS,elderly people care needed 9.2 MS,child care needed 4.6 MS,maternal care needed 24.3 MS,psychosis management needed 13.3 MS,and planned immunity for children needed 4.6 MS.Besides,the people whole covered service projects need 2.4 MS per 100 thousand people.The research showed that managing 1 sample of different kind people needed different human cost,such as health profile needed 22.67 yuan,hypertension management needed 72.69 yuan,planned immunity for children needed 30.68 yuan,diabetes management needed 71.34 yuan,old people management needed 61.50 yuan,child care needed 30.88 yuan,maternal care needed 157.15 yuan,psychosis management needed 74.25 yuan.Besides,the people whole covered service projects needed 124.9 thousand yuan per 100 thousand people.Conclusion For primary public healthcare service project,it should be critical to modify manning regulation and labor costs.

Objective To identify the risk factors for early postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in the elderly patients undergoing spinal surgery.Methods One hundred and fifty ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients,aged ≥65 yr,undergoing elective spinal surgery under general anesthesia,were studied.Venous blood samples were taken at 1 day before operation and 7 days after operation to determine the concentration of serum S-100B protein.Cognitive function was assessed by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at 1 day before operation and 7 days after operation.The patients were diagnosed as having POCD if MMSEpre-MMSEpost ≥ 3.The patients were divided into POCD group and non-POCD group.Age,body weight,sex,education,type of operations,complications,preoperative TCM syndrome type,MMSE score at 1 day before operation and 7 days after operation,duration of operation,emergence time,and intraoperative blood loss,cardiovascular events,and amount of fluid infused per hour were recorded.The risk factors for POCD were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results Thirty-eight patients developed early POCD (25.3％).The resuhs of logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥ 70 yr,elementary education or below,duration of operation ≥5 b,and the number of hypotension occurred during operation≥3 were the risk factors for early POCD.Conclusion Age≥70 yr,elementary education or below,duration of operation ≥ 5 h,and the number of hypotension occurred during operation ≥ 3 are the risk factors for early POCD in the elderly patients undergoing spinal surgery.

Objective To explore the value of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) predicting cardiac events after noncardiac surgery in the aged patients. Methods The level of BNP， the score of Goldman analysis and the cardiac risk grade of ACC/AHA guideline were analyzed in 274 aged patients for cardiac outcome after noncardiac surgery. Results Preoperative BNP concentration>100 pg/ml，score of Goldman≥13，and the high or moderate risk grade by ACC/AHA guideline were related with cardiac events. There was no significant difference in the index such as sensitivity，specificity, accuracy，positive predictive value and negative predictive value for cardiac events between BNP level and cardiac risk grade. Compared with the score of Goldman, BNP was more sensitive （100% vs 55.6%）and negatively predictive （100% vs 96.3%） for cardiac events. Conclusion The risk of cardiac events after noncardiac surgery could be predicted with the level of BNP before operation in the aged patient.

OBJECTIVESTo explore the roles of CD14 and TLR4 in severe hepatitis B induced by endotoxin.

METHODSThe levels of mCD14 on PBMCs from 30 cases of severe hepatitis B, 20 cases of chronic hepatitis B and 20 cases of healthy controls were detected by flow cytometry. The expressions of CD14 mRNA and TLR4 mRNA in PBMCs from these patients were also detected by RT-PCR. Meanwhile, the concentration of plasma endotoxin was detected by limulus amebocyte lysate test and the levels of TNF alpha, IL-1, IL-6 in serum were detected by ELISA.

RESULTSThe levels of mCD14 on PBMCs in severe hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis B and control were 74.2+/-12.3, 63.6+/-11.8 and 60.3+/-7.2 respectively. There was a significant difference among severe hepatitis B,chronic hepatitis B and healthy controls (both of P less than 0.01). The expressions of CD14 mRNA and TLR4 mRNA (2.92+/-0.67 and 1.86+/-0.45) were also upregulated, compared with that in chronic hepatitis B patients (1.34+/-0.51, 0.93+/-0.18) and healthy group (0.92+/-0.58, 0.73+/-0.16) (P less than 0.01). Similarly, the concentration of plasma endotoxin was much higher in severe hepatitis B (1.87+/-1.61) than that in chronic hepatitis B patients (0.11+/-0.11) and that in healthy group (0.03+/-0.03) (P less than 0.01). As a result, the inflammation cytokines, such as TNF alpha, IL-1 and IL-6 (19.78+/-9.21, 0.96+/-0.16, 68.34+/-48.30) also increased significantly in severe hepatitis B, which were remarkably higher than those in chronic hepatitis B patients (7.26+/-6.52, 0.19+/-0.02 and 19.28+/-4.65) and healthy group (4.15+/-4.06, 0.15+/-0.01 and 12.01+/-3.88) (P less than 0.01). Furthermore, correlation analysis showed there was positive correlation among the level of mCD14, the expression of CD14 mRNA/TLR4 mRNA, the concentration of endotoxin and the levels of inflammation cytokines in severe hepatitis B (r1 = 0.865, r2 = 0.415, r3 = 0.524, all of P less than 0.05).

CONCLUSIONEndotoxin is an important factor in the aggravation of hepatitis B. Meanwhile, mCD14, CD14 mRNA and TLR4 mRNA are remarkably upregulated during the endotoxin stimulation. The inflammation cytokines (TNF alpha, IL-1 and IL-6) are also elevated, which may finally result in the aggravation of the hepatitis B. Therefore, CD14, TLR4 and inflammation cytokines play important roles in pathogenesis of severe hepatitis B induced by endotoxin.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the prognosis-related factors and treatment strategy of primary parotid squamous cell carcinoma.

METHODSForty-nine primary parotid squamous cell carcinoma treated from 1970 to 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. The follow up data were analyzed by SPSS 13.0 software.

RESULTSIntegrated follow up data were obtained from 44 patients with a median follow up time of 38 months (5 - 215 months). Recurrence or distant metastasis of the carcinoma occurred in 21 patients, including 13 local recurrence in parotid or neck and 8 distant metastasis. Local recurrence was the main reason of treatment failure. The 3-year and 5-year survival rate and disease-free survival rate was 52%, 27% and 34%, 16%. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank analysis indicated that age, tumor size, distant metastasis, postoperative radiotherapy, facial nerve dysfunction, neck dissection, skin invasion, and surgical margins were prognosis-related factors. Cox analysis showed that age, facial nerve dysfunction, distant metastasis and surgical margins were the important factors that influenced the prognosis.

CONCLUSIONSPrimary parotid gland squamous cell carcinoma is an uncommon tumor, surgery and postoperative radiotherapy are the optimal treatment, which can improve the prognosis of the patients and decrease recurrence of the tumor.
