ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of health education on the recovery of insight in schizophrenic patients. MethodThe insight of patients in health education and control groups was assessed by SAUMD and BPRS bdfore and 4, 8, 12 weeksafter trentment. ResultThe recovery of insight of health education group was significantly different from control group after treatment. Theinsight scores was significantly related to major symptom, cultural level and disease course. ConclusionThe health education for schizoprenicpatients was important in recovering insight and illness and promoting patients go back to society early.

Objective To investigate the changes and clinical implications of VE-eadherin during the courseof progressive cerebral infarction.Method One hundred sixty-seven patients with acute cerebral infarction of Rong Jun General Hospital of Shandong Province and the Central People' s Hospital of Tengzhou were diagnosed in our hospital from May 2006 to July 2007,were diagnosed according to the ill%gnome criteria set by the 4th national cerebrovascular disease conference in 1995.Of them there were 102 ases with progressive cerebral infarction patients and 65 cases with non-progressive cerebral infaction.The progressive cerebral infarction patients were divided into 3 groups according to Pullicino's expressions:the big infarction focus(32 patients) ,the medium-sized infarction focus(34 patients) and the small infarction focus(36 patients) .The neurological deficits were divided into 3 groups according to the crrteria set by the 4th national cerebrovascular disease conference in 1995:light-defictits(38 patients),the moderate dificits (32 patients) and sever ditlcits (32 patients).The 65 non-progressive irffarction patients were stable without headache,vertigo and tinnitus.Arother 60 healthy subjects were entered as control group.Blood samples of all the patients' were collected at 0 h,24 h,3 d,7 d,14 d,24 d and the serum VE-eadherin by ELISA method was asaayed.All the data were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 software and One-way ANOVA was applied to intergroup comparisons for mote than two groups.Results The VF-cadherin level of patieras with progressive infarction increased in acute stage,reached the peak 3 days after onset,declined remarkably 7 days later and got nearly normalized within 21 days.The results were significantly different from those of non-progressive and controlgroup(P＜0.01).The VE-cadherin concentration was higher in patients with bigger size infarction and more sever symptoms.Conclusions The VE-cadherin level is related to the infarction size,course and the severity,and higher in the progressive group.VE-cadherin could be used for predicting prognostic of cerebral infarction and clinically valuable for treating ischemie cerebrovascular disease.

Objective     To evaluate efficacy of amiodarone in the prevention of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods     CBM (from January 1978 to August 2017), CNKI (from January 1987 to August 2017), VIP (from January 1989 to August 2017), Wanfang (from January 1998 to August 2017) and PubMed (from January 1989 to August 2017) databases were searched. The articles were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Quality of articles was assessed by improved Jadad scale. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3. Results     There were 19 articles meeting inclusion criteria including 2 817 patients and all were randomized controlled trial (RCT). There were 16 articles with high quality and 3 articles with low quality by improved Jadad scale. Compared with the placebo, amiodarone had a significant effect on reducing the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting (RR=0.37, 95% CI 0.28 to 0.50, P<0.000 01) and different administration models and time of amiodarone had effect on the atrial fibrillation after aterial bypass grafting (P<0.05). Conclusion    Compared with the placebo, amiodarone is effective in reducing the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting.

Objective    To investigate the clinical manifestations of patients with cardiac myxoma and the factors affecting the occurrence of embolic events. Methods     A retrospective study of 38 patients with cardiac myxoma diagnosed and surgically removed from January 2010 to December 2017 was performed. There were 11 males and 27 females at age of 32-75 (50.00±16.12) years. The patients were divided into a non-embolized group and an embolized group. The clinical manifestations of the patients were summarized and the factors leading to embolism were analyzed. Rseults    Of the 26 patients in the non-embolized group, 22 patients (84.62%) had dyspnea, 14 patients (53.85%) had palpitations, 4 patients (15.38%) had angina pectoris, and 1 patient (3.85%) had heart failure. Of the 12 patients in the embolized group, 4 patients (33.33%) had dyspnea, 3 patients (25%) had palpitations, and 1 patient (8.33%) had angina pectoris. The mean diameter of the non-embolized group was 5.71±1.63 cm, and the maximum diameter of the tumor in the embolized group was 4.52±1.88 cm. There was no significant difference between the maximum diameter of the tumor in the embolized group and the maximum diameter of the non-embolized group (P>0.05). Atrial fibrillation occurred in 2 patients in the non-embolized group before operation. Atrial fibrillation occurred in 5 patients in the embolized group. Atrial fibrillation was more likely to occur in the embolized group (P<0.05). Conclusion     Atrial fibrillation in the patients with cardiac myxoma is closely related to embolic events. The size of myxoma is not related to the occurrence of embolic events.
