110 g/m2 in females.④Logistic regression analysis was conducted taking sex, age, body mass index, body surface area, blood pressure, blood fat level, plasma aldosterone concentration and aldosterone synthase as independent variables while LVEDD, LVM or LVH as dependent variables respectively. RESULTS: All 68 patients were involved in the result analysis.①Among 68 cases of essential hypertension, there were 36 cases for TT genotype, 28 cases for CT genotype and 4 cases for CC genotype. And they were divided into TT genotype group and CT+CC genotypes group.②Compared with those subjects with TT genotypes, hypertensive subjects with CT+CC genotypes had a higher LVEDD, LVM and LVM index [(50.2?3.2) mm, (48.1?3.2) mm; (220.8?34.4) g, (197.4?35.5) g; (123.4?21.5) g/m2, (107.2?15.9) g/m2; t =2.73, 2.74, 3.54, P

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2015;31(34):2583-2585
Objective To investigate the effect of high altitude aviation on the pressure and diameter of the trachea cannula cuff after injecting air or water. Methods In the circumstance 5 km height and 795 hPa cabin pressure, the air injected cuffs were divided into two groups, one was under the ground circumstance, the other was in the high altitude aviation environment. The volumes of injected air were 5 ml, 7 ml, 9 ml, 11 ml, 13 ml, 15 ml, 17 ml, and the cuff pressure and its diameter were measured. The water injected cuffs were also divided into two groups of ground and high altitude aviation environment. The volumes of injected water were 10 ml, 12 ml, 14 ml, 15 ml, 16 ml, and the cuff pressure and its diameter were measured. The results were compared between the ground circumstance and high altitude aviation environment. Results The diameter of injection air group versus under the ground circumstance group had the statistical significance (t=5.000-9.449, P<0.05), when the injection air was larger than 15 ml, the pressure effect had statistical significance (t=5.000, 8.000, P<0.05). Water injection group had not statistically significant. Different water volume injection had no effect on pressure and diameter (P>0.05), while different air volume injection had significant effect on pressure and diameter (F=5.132, 5.980, P<0.01). When the water volume was 10 ml, the cuff pressure was (24.00±4.62) cmH2O (1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa) , which was appropriate to the range of cuff pressure (20-30 cmH2O). Conclusions In high altitude aviation environment the trachea cannula cuff should adopt water injection, and the best water volume is about 10 ml.

Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation is closely associated with the progression of liver fibrosis.As an important component of the innate immune system,natural killer (NK) cells are enriched in the liver and play a key role in host defense against viral infection and tumor,and their anti-fibrotic effect has also been confirmed.NK cells can reduce liver fibrosis by killing early-activated or senescent HSCs or secreting interferon-γ.This article summarizes related research advances in recent years,and introduces the molecular immunological mechanism of NK cells in regulating HSCs and their potential anti-fibrotic effect based on the function and phenotype of NK cells and HSCs.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intense pulsed light and diode laser for axillary hair removal. Methods Clinical trials on 61 persons using intense pulsed light and diode laser to depilate axillary hairs were conducted. 36 persons were treated by IPL and 25 persons by diode laser.Treatments were carried out in three times at 8-week intervals, and a final assessment was made 3 months following the third theatment. Results Both IPL and diode laser reduced the hair count substantially! the IPL group effective rates were 80. 6 % and the diode laser group, 76. 0 %. They had no statistical significance was (P>0. 05)). Conclusions Intense pulsed light and diode laser are effiective and safe for hair removal.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of the posterior fossa solid hemangioblastomas (PFSHs).Methods The data of 23 patients with PFSHs verified by surgery and pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results Nineteen cases were diagnosed with PFSHs before surgery.Total tumor removal was achieved in 22 patients.No case died of operation.A follow-up time was 0.33 -9.00 (2.96 ±2.73) years,20 patients returned to work,1 patient had self-handling living,and 2 patients died.Conclusions MRI and digital subtraction angiography are major preoperatively diagnostic modalities for PFSHs.PFSHs is still a kind of challenging neoplasms.Applicating special microsurgical technique and improving the operative manipulation can improve the surgical efficacy.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for further standardizing and perfecting the management of drug unpacking in outpatient pharmacy.METHODS:A total of 6 primary and secondary health institutions (4 community health service centers and 2 secondary hospitals) were selected from 2 districts in Shanghai to conduct a questionnaire survey on the use of their drugs and drug unpacking in outpatient pharmacy.The survey data was analyzed statistically.RESULTS:Totally 6 institution questionnaires and 6 pharmaceutical staff questionnaires were sent out,all were received with recovery of 100%.In 2015,the average number of essential medicines in community health service centers and secondary hospitals were 496.50,542.00,respectively,and the average number of varieties sold were 530.75,1 052.00.In outpatient pharmacy of surveyed community health service center,the number of unpacked drugs was 10-21 which were essential drugs and class A medical insurance drugs,and the consumption sum of unpacked drug ranged 5.56-16.70 ten thousand yuan.In outpatient pharmacy of 2 two secondary hospitals,the number of unpacked drugs were 17 and 23,respectively,most of which were essential drugs and class A medical insurance drugs,and the consumption sum of unpacked drug ranged 13.19 to 158.06 ten thousand yuan.The proportion of unpacked drugs was less than 5% of the total number of varieties sold,and the proportion of consumption sum of unpacked drugs was less than 1% of total consumption sum.Estazolam tablets and Alprazolam tablets took up the top 5 in the list of consumption sum of unpacking drugs in 2 types of intervi ewed instiutions.All the surveyed institutions were not equipped with drug dispensing machine in the outpatient pharmacy,still depended on manually unpacking.There were four institutions to regularly arrange the unpacking,unpacking frequency was usually 1 to 3 times a week,supplemented by the need to arrange unpacking,and another two to implement a daily unpacking.There were 5 institutions to develop a drug unpacking mechanism in the institutions,but the relevant system was not perfect.CONCLUSIONS:The enthusiasm of pharmaceutical saff in primary and secondary health institutions in Shanghai to carry out or engage in unpacking work need to be improved,the instructions for unpacked drugs are not available on request,and the way to unpack drugs still needs to explore.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the differences of drug instructions between hospital directory and OTC standard model in-structions,and to provide reference for enhancing instruction management and reducing the safety risk of clinical drug use. METH-ODS:1 324 drugs of hospital directory in a hospital in 2014 were compared with OTC directory from CFDA websites. The instruc-tion of drug types included in OTC directory were compared OTC model instruction. According to the degree of risks which the dif-ferences may bring,differences were divided into four levels for analysis as negligible,general,important and severe. RESULTS:244 drugs belonged to OTC,of which 32.38%were different from standard model instructions. The four risk levels rates of negligi-ble,general,important and severe accounted for 29.11%,34.18%,7.59% and 29.11%,respectively. Among important risk,the difference of“indication limit”occupied the highest proportion,being 50.00%. Among severe risk,the difference of“forbidden for special disease”and“forbidden for pregnant women”accounted for 43.48% and 39.13%. CONCLUSIONS:There are problems, such as the absence of important medication information,statement conflicts. The hospital and administration departments should en-hance the standard management of drug instruction to guarantee safe and rational drug use in the clinic.
