Objective To investigate the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and its influencing factors in patients with gastric remnant cancer (GRC).Methods A total of 130 patients received gastrectomy more than 10 years ago because of early gastric cancer.According to the gastric remnant canceration after the surgery,patients were divided into GRC group (80 cases) and gastric remnant group (50 cases).Both the patients of these two groups accepted questionnaires of cancer patients' quality of life questionnaire (QLQ) C30 and gastric cancer specific questionnaire QLQ-STO22,the HRQoL were evaluated.The comparison between two groups with normal distribution of data was aralyzed by t test.Wilcoxon rank sum test was applied for the comparison between two groups with non-normal distribution of data.Optimal scaling regression analysis was used for screening HRQoL related clinical influencing factors.Results All the research objectives finished the questionnaires survey.Compared with health control group,the scores of GRC group were lower,which included quality of life evaluation,physical function,role function,emotional function,cognitive function and social function,and the differences were statistically significant (t =-6.678,-7.111,-10.605,-5.748,-4.765 and-21.170,all P<0.01).The scores of fatigue,pain,diarrhea,nausea and vomiting,loss of appetite,economic difficulties,dysphagia,abdominal pain,reflux symptoms,diet restricted,anxiety,physical appearance and hair loss were higher,and the differences were significant (t=6.925,4.218,4.728 and Z=-5.236,-7.890,-7.698,-10.058,-3.612,-6.914,-9.711,9.940,-7.987 and-4.966,all P<0.01).Compared with gastric remnant group,the scores of GRC group were lower,which included quality of life evaluation,physical function,role function,emotional function,cognitive function and social function,and the differences were statistically significant (t=-5.861,-5.821,-7.077,-7.999,-2.808and-5.710,all P<0.01).However the scores of fatigue,pain,diarrhea,nausea and vomiting,loss of appetite,economic difficulties,dysphagia,diet restricted,anxiety,physical appearance and hair loss were higher,and the differences were significant (t=9.363,6.842 and Z=-2.654,-6.256,-3.266,-4.132,-2.854,-7.996,-4.258 and-2.005,all P<0.01).Compared with health control group,the score of social function of gastric remnant group was lower and the difference was significant (t =-9.820,P< 0.01); the scores of diarrhea,nausea and vomiting,economic difficulties,dysphagia,reflux symptoms,diet restricted,physical appearance and hair loss were higher,the differences were statistical significant (t=3.020 and Z=-1.981,-3.775,-6.505,-6.098,-8.032,-3.369 and-3.147,all P<0.05) ; the symptom scores of fatigue and pain were lower,the differences were significant (t=-2.890 and-2.439,all P<0.05).HRQoL of patients was positively correlated with education degree,marital status,family income and the disease course of gastric remnant.Conclusions HRQoL of GRC patients decreased to certain degree.Education degree,marital status,family income and the disease course of gastric remnant were the influential factors of HRQoL in GRC patients.

Objective To explore the application of Duff in treatment for patients with early stage threat ened abortion.Method 1000 patients with early stage threatened abortion admitted from Jan.2015 to Jun.2016 were selected,and were divided into two groups.All patients were treated by conventional therapy and Duff therapy.Treatment effects of the two groups were observed and compared.Results The differences of clinical characteristics between the two groups had no statistical significance (all P>0.05).No serious adverse reactions oc curred to either group.There was no significant difference in remission and disappearance time of clinical symptoms between the two groups (t=0.334,0.367,all P>0.05).The total treatment efficiency was higher in the observation group than in the control group,but the differences had no statistical significance (x2=0.058,/P>0.05).Conclusion There is a certain application value of Duff treatment for early stage threatened abortion,which is safe,efficient,and convenient,worthy of promotion.

Objective To assess sleep quality and daytime sleepiness in patients on maintenance high flux hemodialysis, and discussed the associated factors. Methods A total of 112 high flux hemodialysis patients and 53 normal subjects were estimated by Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and Epworth Sleep Scale (ESS) to assess the sleep quality and day time sleepiness. Global score of these questionnaires were analyzed. Seven components' scores and 9 reasons for sleep disturbances were compared between "good" (global PSQI ≤5) and "bad" (global PSQI>5) sleepers. Sleep quality was compared among different shifts of hemodialysis. The impact of clinical factors on sleep quality were analyzed by multivariate linear regression and logistic regression. Results Compared with control group, hemodialysis group had a higher PSQI (7.02±4.94 vs 3.28±2.79, P<0.05) and a lower ESS score [3(0-6) vs 8(4.25-11.75), P<0.05] . 58% patients were "bad" sleepers and sleep latency was longer (30 min vs 15 min, P<0.05). Insomnia was the main problem. Patients on morning shift, afternoon shift and night shift had similar subjective sleep quality. Age (OR=1.75, P=0.003), dialysis vintage (OR=1.26, P=0.008),hemoglobin (OR=0.64, P=0.008), calcium phosphate product (OR=1.60, P=0.02) were significantly related to sleep quality score. Conclusions Sleep disturbance is common in hemodialysis patients. Older age, longer dialysis vintage, anemia and higher calcium phosphate product are risk factors for poor sleep quality.

With the accelerating process of aging, the burden of elderly care in China is increasing dramatically. However, the current care models were difficult to meet the multi-level and diversified needs of the elderly. Time banking mutual care model is proposed as an important auxiliary model. Since the elderly in urban communities are the major participants of time banking mutual care model, understanding their willingness to participate is very important for the effective implementation and sustainable development of time banking mutual care model. This paper summarizes the research progress and the major influencing factors of the willingness of the elderly to participate in time banking mutual care model, in order to provide theoretical support for alleviating the increasingly severe burden of elderly care in China and realizing active aging.

Objective To compare the complications and outcomes of urgent?start peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) in end?stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, and explore the safety and effectiveness of PD which was as an urgent?start dialysis modality in ESRD patients. Methods All patients for urgent?start dialysis, who initiated dialysis without a long?term dialysis access or had the long?term dialysis access under 30 days in Renji Hospital from January 1st 2013 to December 31st 2014, were enrolled. According to the dialysis modalities, patients were divided into PD group and HD group. Participants were followed up until death, transferred to other centers, lost of follow up or January 1st 2016. Dialysis?related complications within 30 days of implantation, complications of reimplantation and the occurrence of bacteremia between two groups were compared, and their survival rates were tested by Kaplan?Meier curves. Results Among 178 patients in this study, there were 96 (53.9%) patients in PD group and 82 (46.1%) patients in HD group. Compared with those of HD group, patients of PD group presented more cardiovascular disease [21(21.9%) vs 8(9.8%), P=0.029], higher serum potassium [(4.5±0.8) mmol/L vs (4.3±0.8) mmol/L, P=0.038], but less heart failure (NYHA Ⅲ?Ⅳ) [26(30.2%) vs 40 (48.8%), P=0.014], lower brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) [328.5 (129.5, 776.8) ng/L vs 503.5(206.0, 1430.0) ng/L, P=0.008], higher hemoglobin [(81.5 ± 17.7) g/L vs (75.3 ± 22.5) g/L, P=0.039], higher serum albumin (33.5±5.7) g/L vs (31.3±6.7) g/L, P=0.022] and higher serum pre?albumin (304.5±78.0) mg/L vs (257.0 ± 86.1) mg/L, P<0.001]. PD group presented less dialysis?related complications [5 (5.2%) vs 20(24.4%), P<0.001], less dialysis?related complications requiring reimplantation [1(1.0%) vs 20(24.4%), P<0.001] and less bacteraemia [3(3.1%) vs 11(13.4%), P=0.011]. The 3?, 6?and 12?month patient survival rates of PD and HD group were 97.9% vs 98.4%, 97.9% vs 98.4%, and 92.1%vs 93.0% respectively, and no significant difference was found (Log ? rank=0.004, P=0.947). Conclusions Patients with urgent?start PD have less complications within 30 days of implantation and occurrence of bacteremia than patients with urgent?start HD, and the same survival rates. PD may be a feasible and safe urgent?start dialysis modality for ESRD patients.
