1.Association of the severity of coronary artery disease with ordinary risk factors for CHD and left ventricle ejection function in patients with CHD
Journal of Chinese Physician 2010;12(1):51-54
Objective This study was performed to find the association of the severity of coronary artery disease with ordinary risk factors for CHD and left ventricle heart function in patients with CHD. Methods Selective coronary angiography were carried on 305 consecutive patients admitted to our hospital from December 2008 to April 2009. The severity of coronary disease was accessed by the Gensini scoring system. These patients were divided into two groups, patients with CHD group (251 cases) and control group (patients without CHD) (54 cases) , to compare the difference of ordinary risk factors for CHD between the two groups. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the association of the severity of coronary artery disease with ordinary risk factors for CHD. We also used linear correlation analysis to investigate the association of the severity of coronary artery disease with left ventricle ejection fraction in patients with CHD. Results The two groups had statistically difference on age, sex, smoking index, hypertension prevalence rate, serum glucose abnormal prevalence rate, diabetes prevalence rate, and metabolic syndrome prevalence rate( P < 0.05). We found that age (β_1 =0.251, P <0.01), sex (β_2 =0.235, P < 0.01), LDL-C concentration (β_3 = 0.241,P <0.01), duration of diabetes (β_4 =0.226, P <0.01) went into multiple linear regression model. We also found the severity of coronary artery disease had a negative correlation ( r = -0. 362, P <0.01) with left ventricle ejection fraction in patients with CHD. Conclusion When we decide to cany out coronary angiography on susceptible patients, we should consider their age, sex, smoking index, whether had hypertension, serum glucose abnormal, diabetes, metabolic syndrome or not. Age, sex, LDLC concentration, duration of diabetes affect severity of coronary artery stenosis independently. Left ventricle ejection function will decrease as coronary atherosclerosis continues.
2.Application of hospital-home care model in the elderly discharged patients with diabetes
Journal of Clinical Medicine in Practice 2017;21(12):147-149
Objective To analyze effect of the hospital-home care model in elderly patients with diabetes.Methods A total of 110 elderly patients with diabetes were as research objects, and were divided into control group and observation group according to the admission number, with 55 cases in each group.Control group was given conventional discharge guidance and the observation group implemented hospital-family nursing mode.Quality of life and control blood sugar levels after discharge after intervention for 1 month were compared.Results After intervention for 1 month, the observation group quality had higher psychological state, housework activities, and family relationship, and lower average fasting blood glucose and postprandial 2 h blood glucose than that of control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Hospital-home care model for elderly patients with diabetes can effectively improve patient''s quality of life after discharge and control blood sugar levels.

Objective To investigate the effects of acupuncture based on acupoint selection of myofascial meridians perspective on the regeneration of nerve cells and recovery of motor function in rats with cerebral palsy. Methods 20 healthy 21-day-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control group, acupuncture groups 1 (receiving traditional acupuncture) and 2 (receiving acupuncture based on acupoint selection of myofascial meridians perspective), and sham group. The control group and the acupuncture groups were subjected to ligation of left carotid artery (ischemia) and then put into a hypoxic environment. They were assessed with Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) Scale and inclined plane test 3 d, 7 d and 14 d after the beginning of acupuncture. And 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) was used to label Sphase cells in the left striaturn and motor cortex in each group 14 d after the beginning of acupuncture. Results The BBB scores improved more in the acupuncture group 2 than in the acupuncture group 1 and the control group 7 d, 14 d after the beginning of acupuncture (P<0.01), as well as the score of inclined plane test 3 d, 7 d, 14 d after acupuncture (P<0.05). BrdU was more in the left motor cortex in the acupuncture group 2 than in the acupuncture group 1 (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture based on acupoint selection of myofascial meridians perspective can promote the regeneration of nerve cells and recovery of motor function in rats with cerebral palsy, that is more effective than traditional acupuncture.
