Objective To evaluate the factors in relation to prognosis of severe diarrhea associated with hypernatremia in children.Methods The medical records of severe diarrhea and hypernatremia admitted to pediatric intensive care unit(PICU) from January 2000 to December 2004 reviewed retrospectively.The relationship between prognosis and serum sodium peak level,severity of diseases,treatment strategies were analyzed in 63 children with severe diarrhea associated with hypernatremia.Results There were 169 severe diarrhea and 85 hypernatremia cases during the study period.In the 169 severe diarrhea children,63 were associated with hypernatremia(37.28%) and accounted for 74.12% of all 85 hypernatremia cases admitted to our PICU.The mean pediatric critical illness score(PCIS) was(75.50?6.83) score in survival group and(60.75?5.34) score in mortality group,with significant statistical difference((t=)5.86 P0.05).All the children were cured when the reduction rate of serum sodium concentration was between 0.5-1.0 mmol/(L?h).Signs of cerebral edema developed in 8 children and 5 of 8 died when the reduction rate of serum sodium concentration was between 1.2-2.4 mmol/(L?h).Conclusions Severe diarrhea associated with hypernatremia is common in children and is the major cause of hypernatremia in critically ill child.The key to determine the prognosis of severe diarrhea with hypernatremia in children is the severity of disease and the strategies of treatment.

It has long been one significant focus in the field of surgery to reduce postoperative incisional complications.Recently,incisional negative pressure wound therapy (iNPWT),which was designed to reduce the incidence of incisional complications,has gradually been applied for primary incision closure.This article reviews the relevant basic and clinical studies to elucidate the mechanism of iNPWT and its clinical safety and efficacy,and answers some fundamental questions regarding clinical application of iNPWT.

This paper overviewed typical government compensation sources and practices for public hospitals in the world.Government compensation should be made based on regional health planning,while the central government shoulders greater compensation responsibility.The fee-for-case mix is found to be the best incentive The government adjusts its funding baselines for different hospitals to adjust the compensation.In view of the compensation for public hospitals in China,the paper analyzed the enlightenments and lessons from international experiences The authors recommend an evolution from the pattern of compensation per person/per bed,to payment by service unit or volume(for example,per outpatient or emergency visit and days of stay),and in the end to that of payment per disease.

Objective To investigate the relationship between cognitive function and emotional status in functional constipation patients.Methods Thirty-five functional constipation patients (the functional constipation group) and 24 healthy controls (the HCs) were enrolled in an event-related potential (ERP),behavior and electroeneephalogram study while performing an oddball auditory task.Response time,accuracy,latency and P300 amplitude were compared between the two groups.The Hamilton depression rating scale (HAMD-17),Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA),symptom check list-90 (SCL-90) and Eysenck personality questionnaire (EPQ) were administered prior to the oddball task.Results The average HAMD-17,HAM A and SCL-90 (the somatization,obsessive-compulsive disorder,depression,anxiety and psychosis dimensions) scores of the functional constipation group differed significantly from those of the HCs.The intro-extraversion and neurosis dimensions of the EPQ were also significantly different.There was no significant difference in response time or latency between the two groups.The ERP results showed that the P300 amplitudes at the F3 and F7 sites were significantly different between the functional constipation group and the HCs.But there was no significant difference in P300 latencies at F3 or F7 between the two groups.Conclusions The findings suggest that patients with functional constipation are more susceptible to depression and anxiety,as well as somatization,obsessive-compulsive tendencies and other neurotic personality characteristics.Patients may employ psychological defense mechanisms to avoid the depression and anxiety.The ERP results imply there may be the implicit cognitive dysfunction with emotion in patients with functional constipation.

369 patients with hypertension living in Xietu community were randomized into 2 groups:intervention group receiving the group-interference-management and control group receiving routine hypertension management services.We found that patients in the intervention group had better self-management behaviors,self-efficacy and health status in comparison with the control group (P＜0.05).The systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the intervention group decreased more remarkably than that in the control group (P＜0.05).Our result suggested that the community-based hypertension group-interference-management model is more effective to control hypertension than the routine hypertension management services.

AIM: To explore the effect of drug content and encapsulated efficency of microsphere ophiopogon saponin preparation, providing more precise computational method. METHODS: Ophiopogon saponin enteric microsphere was prepared by spray drying technique, and the sum of saponin was determined by colorimetric analysis to evaluate the drug content and encapsulated efficency. RESULTS: The encapsulated efficency (%) was 94.75? 2.68. The drug content (mg/g) was 54.81? 2.12. CONCLUSION: The drug content the encapsulated efficency can affect the clinical dosage and the encapsulated efficency stands for the preparation process and the quality. So we should detect both drug content and the encapsulated efficency to evaluate preparation quality evaluation.

Objective To explore the anxiety and depression in caregivers of patients in persist vegetative state and minimally conscious state, and discuss the related factors. Methods From January, 2010 to December, 2014, 60 caregivers of 60 patients in persist vegetative state and minimally conscious state were assessed with Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS). The sex, ed-ucation level, relation to the patients and family income of the caregivers, and the age of the patients and number of the families of the pa-tients were recorded, and analyzed with Logistic regression. Results 55％caregivers were found in anxiety, and 48.4％in depression. The fe-male caregivers (OR>6.870, P<0.05), the number of the family of the patients (OR<0.233, P<0.05) and age of the patients (OR<0.294, P<0.05) were independent factors associated with anxiety and depression. Conclusion The caregivers of patients in persist vegetative state and minimally conscious state are troubled in anxiety and depression, especially the female, while age and the number of the families of patient may be important factors for it.
