1.Risk Assessment Tools for Stroke After Transient Ischemic Attack
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2008;16(12):894-897
Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is an independent risk factor of stroke. About two-thirds patients with TIA will reoccur TIA or stroke. To predict the risk of stroke after the onset of TIA may identify the prognosis of patients, so as to have an intervention for the high-risk patients as early as possible. This article reviews the various risk assessment tools for stroke after TIA, in order to provide ideas for the prognostic assessment of TIA.

4.Tissue distribution of Aconitum alkaloids extracted from Radix aconiti preparata after oral administration to rats
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2005;40(6):539-543
Aim To develop an HPLC method for the determination of Aconitum alkaloids extracted from Radix aconiti preparata in rats. Methods Waters 2690@996 PAD system was used. The analytical column was a Halsil 100 C18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm ID, 5 μm). The mobile phase was water, methanol and diethyl amine at the ratio of 75∶ 25∶ 0.1. The flow rate was 0.9 mL·min -1. The wavelength of the detector was 240 nm. Results The linear ranges of aconitine in the heart, spleen, lung and kidney were 0.4-100 μg·mL -1, the correlation coefficients were 0.997 2, 0.998 6, 0.999 3 and 0.999 4, respectively. The linear range of aconitine in liver was 2-200 μg·mL -1 and the correlation coefficient was 0.999 0. The linear ranges of hypaconitine in heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, brain and spinal cord were 5-100 μg·mL -1, the correlation coefficients were 0.999 4, 0.999 7, 0.999 8, 0.998 4, 0.999 8, 0.999 8 and 0.999 7, respectively. Detection limits (S/N=3) of aconitine and hypaconitine were 0.4 μg·mL -1. The recoveries of aconitine and hypaconitine ranged from 88.7% to 102.2% and 86.5% to 101.3%, respectively, and the RSD of precision of aconitine and hypaconitine was 10%. Conclusion It appears to be an accurate and effective method that can offer reference basis for in toxication of Radix aconiti preparata clinically.
5.The relationship between nurse' well-being and personality characteristics from the perspective of positive psychology
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2014;30(34):12-16
Objective To explore the relationship between the subjective well-being and personality characteristics of nurses,and provide the basis for managers to implement humanized management and improve the nurse happiness from the perspective of positive psychology.Methods A total of 190 nurses were selected from a hospital of Zhongshan city by convenience sampling technique.And General Situation Questionnaire,Happiness Scale and the revised Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Short Form (Chinese version) were used in the investigation.Results The average score of general happiness was (54.91± 9.18) points for male nurses,which was lower than that of the national norm.The sense of happiness between male and female nurses showed statistical difference.The emotional stability of nurses with different marital status showed significant difference.Nurses' subjective well-being and personality characteristics had a significant causal relationship by multiple stepwise regression analysis.Conclusions The general wellbeing about nursing staff is lower than the national norm,male nurses' happiness was lower than that of female and married nurses' emotional instability is higher than unmarried nurses.The nurses' personality is an important factor that affect their happiness.Managers should be under the guidance of the positive psychology,pay attention to the nurse' personality characteristics to improve the nurse' happiness,improve the level of nurse' mental health,to stabilize and optimize the nursing team,and improve the quality of nursing.
6.Clinical Observation of Electroacupuncture at Huiyang (BL35) and Zhongliao (BL33) plus Scalp Acupuncture for Female Stress Urinary Incontinence
Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2015;(12):1159-1161
ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture at Huiyang (BL35) and Zhongliao (BL33) plus scalp acupuncture in treating female stress urinary incontinence (SUI), for providing clinical evidence in the treatment of SUI.Method Ninety eligible female SUI patients were randomized into an observation group and a control group. The observation group was intervened by electroacupuncture at Huiyang and Zhongliao plus scalp acupuncture, while the control group was asked to practice contracting anus. The urine leakage degree, residual urine volume in bladder and clinical efficacy were compared.ResultAfter treatment, there was a significant difference in comparing urine leakage degree between the two groups (P<0.05); there was a significant between-group difference in comparing the residual urine volume (P<0.05); the cured and markedly-effective rate was 62.2% in the observation group versus 35.6% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). ConclusionElectroacupuncture at Huiyang and Zhongliao plus scalp acupuncture can produce a more significant clinical efficacy compared with rehabilitation training in treating female SUI.
7.Stress Resistance of Rhodiola under Freezing Injury Stress
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2014;(1):91-94
Objective To study the stress resistance of Rhodiola under freezing injury stress. Methods With R.kirilowii, R.crenulata, R.Algida and R.fastigiata as the experimental materials, the effects of freezing injury stress on emerging time, duration of seedling emergence, emergence rate, surviving rate, the activity of SOD and POD were observed by field test and experimental detection. Results Before seeding, the effect of freezing injury stress on R.kirilowii was the largest, and that on R.fastigiata was the least. When injury stress happened during seedling stage, surviving rate, increase of SOD and POD activities of R.kirilowii was the least, indicating the freezing injury was severe. R.fastigiata was the best in those indexes. The stress resistance of Rhodiola was as follows:R.fastigiata > R.crenulata > R.Algida > R.kirilowii. Conclusion R. fastigiata and R.crenulata are good choice in introduction and cultivation of Rhodiola in Gannan area of Gansu province, and R.fastigiata is the best.
8.A Survey on the Current Situation of Smoking and Smoking Cessation in 184 Patients with Cardiovascular Disease
Journal of Kunming Medical University 2013;(12):60-64
Objective To understand the current situation of smoking and quitting smoking in patients with cardiovascular disease. Methods 184 cases of inpatients or outpatients with cardiovascular disease treated in the First People's Hospital of Kunming were surveyed about quitting smoking, and the smoking and smoking cessation-related clinical features of patients with cardiovascular disease were analyzed. Results ( 1) Cardiovascular diseases in smokers was male-dominated (100%), mainly hypertension and/or coronary heart disease (179, 97.3%) . (2) Average age of starting smoking was 21.5, 97.8%of patients had smoked more than 10 years, with an average of 35.1 ±13.4 years, 69.6% of patients smoked ≥10 cigarettes/day, with an average of 16.3 ± 10.1 cigarettes/day, 65.8%of patients were in the low level of nicotine dependence, 81.5%of the patients thought that quitting smoking was important, 76.1% had quitting smoking ideas, 67.4% had confidence in the success of quitting smoking, 50.5%thought that it was difficult to quit smoking, 127 (69%) patients had seriously quit smoking. (3) 65 cases (51.2%) who seriously quit smoking had succeeded, 54 patients (83.1%) received varying degrees of medical staff advised to quit smoking, 62 cases (48.8%) in relapse, only 34 patients (54.8%) accepted medical personnel advised to quit. Two sets of chi-square test, p=0.000, prompted difference was statistically significant. Relapse reasons were pressure, craving and around other smokers. Conclusions Smoking patients with cardiovascular disease are mainly constituted by male patients with hypertension and/or coronary heart disease. Most of the patients recognize that quitting smoking is important, and have idea and seriously quit smoking. However, lack of confidence and smoking which has also become a lifestyle significantly affect the success of smoking cessation. The medical staffs' recommending smoking cessation persuasion can largely improve the success of smoking cessation for patients.
