Objective To explore the effect of mobile phone-based health education on independent living ability of postoperative patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods Sixty patients with postoperative hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage who underwent craniotomy in our hospital during March 2016 and December 2017 were divided into experimental and control groups, 30 cases in each group, according to the random number table method. Functional training conducted during hospitalization in both groups. After discharge, the control group used a telephone for follow-ups every 2 weeks and took part in a face-to-face training in the first month to implement continuous nursing intervention for a total of 3 months. After discharge, in the experimental group, various information forms of rehabilitation training for hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage were comprehensively integrated, and mobile phone education was used for a total of 3 months in addition to the training as in the control group. The two groups were compared in terms of independent living ability between the two groups. Result The scores of independent living ability and self-care ability, action ability, metastatic ability, social cognitive ability and communication ability of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The mobile phone-based education can promote the effect of rehabilitation exercise in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, so as to promote the independent living ability of patients.

Objective:
The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the CYP19A1 rs7176005 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) with breast cancer risk and with clinicopathologic features of tumors.
Methods:
This study was conducted by including 138 patients with breast cancer (cancer group), those who diagnosed as primary breast cancer after operation by pathology. There were 293 cases in the group of benign breast disease which was presented as a solid mass by the color ultrasound and pathologically diagnosed as "fibroadenoma or adenosis" (benign breast disease group), the cases were paired with breast cancer patients by age±5 in the same period, and there were 259 cases in the group of healthy control who received routine physical examination during the same period and were paired with breast cancer patients by age±5 without any detection of breast related diseases (healthy control group) at West China hospital between September 2012 and November 2016. The CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP was detected by a direct sequencing method. Hardy-Weinberg test was used to analyze the genetic balance of the 3 groups. Chi square test was used to compare the distribution of rs7176005 genotypes between the 3 groups, and the differences of clinicopathological features in breast cancer patients carrying different genotypes.
Results:
The ages of the breast cancer cases, the benign breast disease group and the healthy control group were (44.69±8.09), (42.33±11.44) and (41.92±9.61) years old, respectively. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test identified that the composition ratios of alleles C and T in breast cancer group, benign breast disease group and healthy group were not statistically significant (χ2 values were 0.83, 0.34 and 0.04, respectively,

Objective Based on Chinese guidelines for the management of ischemic stroke, a standardized stroke management program was performed to provide intensive education and training for medical physicians, aiming to enhance their knowledge and ability for ischemic stroke prevention and treatment, thereby reducing patients′ in-hospital cost and length of stay, and improving patients′ clinical prognosis. Methods This study was conducted in 20 general hospitals throughout Hainan province. A total of 163 physicians from 20 hospitals involved in the management of stroke patients were trained by highly experienced physicians based on the Chinese guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke 2014 and the Chinese guidelines for secondary prevention of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack 2014. Prior to and post the standardized stroke management training, the data of 3218 and 3367 patients with ischemic stroke were respectively collected. Quality of life assessments including the Barthel index (BI) and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of all patients were recorded at baseline and after discharge. The length of stay and in-hospital cost were directly collected from the hospital information system. Results Physicians′ knowledge and ability manifested as testing scores were significantly improved after training (78.2 ± 15.5 vs 55.6 ± 10.7, t=69.1, P<0.01). The average length of stay of post-training patients was significantly shorter than that of pre-training patients ((8.7 ± 0.9) vs (11.7 ± 1.5) days, t=97.9, P<0.01). The average in-hospital cost of post-training patients was significantly less than that of pre-training patients ((7681.7 ± 1397.7) vs (11846.2 ± 2514.6) Yuan, t=82.5, P<0.01). Both BI (68.2 ± 3.2 vs 43.5 ± 5.3, t=227.7, P<0.01) and mRS score (2.74±0.51 vs 3.65±0.71, t=59.5, P<0.01) were significantly improved for post-training patients. Multivariate linear regression analysis illustrated that standardized stroke management was negatively associated with in-hospital cost (r=-0.461, P<0.01), length of stay (r=-0.357, P<0.01) and mRS score (r=-0.298, P<0.01), and was positively associated with levels of BI (r=0.376, P<0.01). Conclusion Standardized stroke management program might be a cost-effective choice for the management of ischemic stroke as it reduces the in-hospital cost and improves patients′BI and mRS levels.

Objective:To evaluate the arthroscopy-assisted reduction and internal fixation (ARIF) via the traditional anterolateral approach for the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures (PTPF).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 79 patients with PTPF who had been treated from March 2014 to February 2020 at Department of Articular Surgery, Linyi Central Hospital. They were 37 males and 42 females, aged from 17 to 71 years (average, 46.0 years). According to treatment methods, they were assigned into an ARIF group (37 cases) and a control group (42 cases). The ARIF group was treated by ARIF via the traditional anterolateral approach and the ARIF varied according to the extents of articular collapse and split and displacement of fracture fragments. The control group was treated by traditional reduction and internal plate fixation of the proximal tibia. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, blood loss, iliac bone grafting, hospitalization time, follow-up time, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, maximum flexion and extension, fracture healing time, Rassmussen functional and anatomical scores, visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score and complications.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months (average, 11.4 months). The operation time [(48.9±8.2) min], blood loss [(73.1±20.8) mL], hospitalization time [(9.3±2.5) d], and fracture healing time [(12.5±1.8) weeks] in the ARIF group were all significantly less than those in the control group [(55.2±9.9) min, (100.8±30.3) mL, (11.8±2.8) d and (15.1±2.1) weeks] while the HSS score [(93.5±4.6) points], maximum flexion angle (107.8°±10.4°) and Rassmussen functional score [(27.1±1.8) points] in the ARIF group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(88.4±7.4) points, 100.4°±10.0° and (26.1±2.4) points] (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in iliac bone grafting, follow-up time, maximum extension angle, Rassmussen anatomical score, VAS score, or rate of complications (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with traditional surgery, ARIF which varies with the extents of articular collapse and split and displacement of fracture fragments may lead to shorter operation time, reduced surgical trauma and more accurate reduction of the articular surface. Therefore, it can be an additional choice in the treatment of PTPF.
