Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of traditional Chinese mental intervention in treating post-apoplexy depressive disorder and its effects on recovery of activities of daily living(ADL).Methods 64 cases of post-apoplexy depressive disorder patients of light or moderate degree(evaluated by HAMD scale)were randomly separated into an experiment group and a control group.On the basis of identical basic clinical treatments,the experiment group was treated with traditional Chinese mental intervention,and the results were evaluated by HAMD scale and ADL scale at the 40th,the 70th and the 100th day.Results There were no differences in marks of the two scale between the experiment group and the control group at the beginning(P＞0.05).At the 40th day,the HAMD scale mark was 13.04±4.86 in the experiment group and 17.92±5.82 in the control group,showing significant differences(P＜0.05)between the two groups.At the same time,the ADL scale mark was 61.85±11.73 in the experiment group and 53.02±10.54 in the control group,showing significant differences between the two groups too(P＜0.05).At the 70th day and 100th day,the differences became much more notable(P＜0.01).Conclusion Traditional Chinese mental intervention was effective in promoting the motor function and activities of daily living and relieving the depress disorder for post-apoplexy depressive disorder.Post-apoplexy depress disorder patients should be treated with Chinese traditional mental intervention as soon as possible.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine in treating diabetic nephropathy. Methods 114 cases of type 2 diabetes were randomly separated into experiment group and control group. Members in the experiment group were treated by integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine and Members in the control group were treated with western medicine alone for 8 weeks' course separately. At the end of therapeutic courses, levels of 24 h total proteinuria, serum creatinine, blood-fasting sugar were evaluated. Results In the experiment group, 8 cases got outstanding effects(11.1%), 50 cases got improvement(69.4%), and 14 cases got no effect (19.4%), with a total effective rate of 80.6%. In the control group, 0 cases got significant effect, 24 cases got improvement(33.3%), and 48 cases got no effect(66.7%), with a total effective rate of 33.3%. There was significant difference in total effective rate between the two groups (P＜0.05), that the total effective rate of the experiment group was significantly higher than that of the control group. Conclusion Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine therapy can be more effective in treating diabetic nephropathy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence on air quality in cleaning room of the supply department when the water/gas blast gun is used to clean endoscope,to give basis for valuable protective procedures. METHODS Bacterial number of the air in the supply department was sampled using flat plate settling process pre-and post-operation. Simultaneously,the air purification effect of the laminar purification equipment was evaluated. RESULTS The air bacterial content before the water/gas blast gun ran was significantly different from that when the gun stopped (P

Objective: To study the possible role and way of ALR in the immune regulation in vitro. Methods: The proliferation of spleen mononuclear cells of rat was detected with 3H-TdR method in vitro under the following different treatments:(1)the administration of the different concentration of rALR with 5 ?g/ml ConA at same time;(2)the addition of 30 ?g/ml ALR after 5 ?g/ml ConA pretreatment in 10 h and 32 h, respectively;(3)the addition of 5 ?g/ml ConA after 30 ?g/ml ALR pretreatment until 30 h. Cyclosporin A and the supernatant from cultures of yeast were used as positive and negative controls, respectively. The IL-2 levels in the supernatants from the mononuclear cells by various treatments were detected with RIA test kit. Results: rALR inhibited the proliferation and the production of IL-2 of the mononuclear cells from rat spleen stimulated by ConA dose-dependently. The mononuclear cell proliferations were still inhibited by 30 ?g/ml rALR after stimulated by ConA for 10 h or 32 h, but the pretreatment of 30 ?g/ml rALR for 30 h had no influence on the reactivity of mononuclear cell to ConA compared with control. Conclusion: rALR could inhibit in dose-dependent way the proliferation of mononuclear cells from rat spleen stimulated by ConA in vitro, but it couldn’t influence the rest mononuclear cells. This suggests that the rest mononuclear cells might not express the receptor of ALR.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Dan-Hong Injection and Methycobal combined therapy in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN).Methods 72 cases of peripheral neuropathy and type 2 diabetes(conformed to ADA standard published in 1999)were randomly separated into an experimem group and a control group.Members in the experiment group were treated with Dan-Hong injection 20ml/day i.v.and Methycobal 500ug/day i.m.Members in the control group were treated with Methycobal only.At the end of 2 weeks'therapeutic courses,motor nerve conducdon velocity (MNCV)and sural nerve conduction velocity(SNCV)were evaluated.Results The overall effective rate was 92.1% in the experiment group and 67.6% in the control group,showing significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.01).The post-therapeutic values of both SNCV and MNCV were significantly different from those of previous treatment.(P＜0.01)The post-therapeutic values of SNCV and MNCV of the experiment group were also significantly different from those of the control group(P＜0.05).No evidently relative adverse effects were observed in both groups.Conclusions Combined therapy of Dan-Hong injection and Methycobal was more effective in controlling the clinical activity of diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

ObjectiveTo explore the imaging characteristics and the clinical and pathological diagnosis of gliomatosis cerebri in order to raise the awareness of the disease.MethodsThe images of 26 patients with gliomatosis cerebri were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsEight patients were treated with partial excision and 18 patients got stereotactic biopsy.The radiography examination included the plain and enhanced scan of CT and MRI.Twelve patients received 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).The disease in all the patients involved at least two cerebral lobes.There were 22 cases whose CT and MRI manifestations showed that there were large-sheet symmetry low-density image in brain and slightly long T1 and long T2 abnormal signals.And the enhanced scan showed that 20 cases had no obvious enhancement,2 cases had slight enhancement.There were 4 cases with large-sheet asymmetry lesions and no enhancement in enhanced scan.1H MRS examination of 12 cases showed that choline( CHO )/creatine(Cr) and CHO/N-acetyl aspartic acid (NAA) increased,NAA/Cr decreased with different degree,and 8 patients had lactate peak.ConclusionsMRI is the first choice to diagnose gliomatosis cerebri.1H MRS is very helpful for the diagnosis and pathological classification of the disease.MRI combined with biopsy can give out a definite diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the tendency of bacterial distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in ICU,then instruct clinical application of antibiotics reasonably.METHODS The identification of bacteria,isolated from patients in ICU from Jan 2005 to Dec 2006,and antibiotic susceptibility by ATB expression were used.RESULTS A total of 1197 pathogens strains were isolated,Gram-negative bacilli,Gram-postive cocci and fungi accounted for 64.2%,19.6% and 15.8%,respectively.The most common pathogens of them were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(22.1%).Except Escherichia coli(40%),the rate of the ESBL-producing strains of Serratia marcescens,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae were higher than 70%.The most common pathogens of Gram-postive cocci were Staphylococcus.Meticillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus accounted for 93.8%.Mainly pathogenic bacteria were multi-resistant to some antibiotics.There were 189 strains fungi.And all the fungi were sensitive to amphotericin B,fluconazole and ketoconazole.CONCLUSIONS The infection and multi-drug resistance of pathogens are serious in ICU.It′s important and urgent to carry out surveillance of bacterial resistance for appropriately using antibiotics.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI) in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of gallbladder wall thickening diseases.Methods 42 patients with gallbladder wall thickening (16 patients with carcinoma and 26 patients with benign lesion) were included in this study.All patients performed conventional MRI and DWI.The diagnostic performances of three methods (conventional MRI,visual assessment of color fusion image from DWI and T2WI,and ADC measurement) were evaluated by two radiologists.Results The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve were 0.570,0.849,0.901 for conventional MRI,visual assessment and ADC measurement respectively.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity were 59.5%,62.5%,57.7% for conventional MRI,85.7%,81.2%,88.5% for visual assessment of color fusion image,and 83.3%,80.0%,85.2% for ADC measurement,respectivily.The mean ADC value of gallbladder cacinoma[(1.15±0.35)×10-3mm2/s]was significantly less than that of gallbladder benign lesion [(1.99±0.61)×10-3mm2/s](P<0.01).Conclusion The DWI(visual assessment of color fusion image and ADC measurement)might be a useful tool for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the gallbladder wall thickening diseases.
