Objective To explore the fatigue in patients with rheumatic diseases and put forward nursing countermeasures.Methods 173 patients with rheumatic diseases were investigated by Fatigue Scale-14 (FS-14) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS).Results The score of physical fatigue,mental fatigue and total score in the patients were 5.03±2.19,2.62±1.56,7.65±3.03,respectively,which were higher than those in healthy people (P＜ 0.01).Of the 173 patients,74 (42.8％) patients suffered from physical fatigue,52 (30.1％) patients suffered from mental fatigue,32 (18.5％) patients suffered from both.There were statistical differences in the physical fatigue and total score (P ＜ 0.01),no statistical difference in the mental fatigue (P ＞ 0.05) among the groups,which were divided according to the course of disease.There were statistical differences in the physical fatigue,mental fatigue and total score among the groups,which were divided according to the depression index (F=5.28,5.98,8.58,P ＜ 0.01).The regression analysis further showed the course of disease and depression index could positively predict the fatigue in patients with rheumatic diseases.Conclusions The prevalence of fatigue was high in patients with rheumatic diseases,the course of disease and depression influenced the fatigue in patients.Controlling deterioration of disease and relieving psychological stress would help prevent and alleviate the fatigue in patients with rheumatic diseases.

To evaluate percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT) with continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions in intensive care unit (ICU) elder patients.A total of 32 elder patients were selected randomly for PDT and 36 controls for traditional surgical tracheostomy (TST).The PDT group required regular mechanical ventilation with continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions.The operative duration was significantly shorter in PDT group than that in TST group [ ( 10.6 ±3.4)vs.(30.9 ±7.1)min,P ＜0.01].Incision length was significantly less in PDT group than that in TST group [ ( 1.3 ± 0.2 ) vs.(3.2 ± 0.3 )cm,P ＜0.01].Blood loss volume was significantly less in PDT group than that in TST group [ ( 10.4 ±3.8 ) vs.(40.7 ± 11.7 ) ml,P ＜ 0.01].The incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) was significantly lower in PDT group than that in TST group ( 15.6％ vs.38.9％,P ＜ 0.05 ).With multiple advantages of mini-invasiveness,safety,simplicity,convenience and easier installation,PDT is quite suitable for elder patients in ICU.

AIM:To investigate LPS(lipopolysaccharide)stimulated cytokine secretion from normal rat kupffer cells in vitro. METHODS: Kupffer cells were isolated from wistar rats liver and cultured. Tumor necrosis factor - α (TNF- α) and endothelin- 1 (ET- 1 ) secreted by LPS stimulated kupffer cells were detected. RESULTS: LPS had an stimulative effect on kupffer cell activity. LPS in definite concentrations promoted kupffer cell secretion. CONCLUSION: LPS promotes kupffer cell secretion, which may be associated with liver injury induced by LPS.

Objective: To study the impact of the residents’ health investment income growth, and analyze rural-urban differences and regional differences. Methods: According to the provincial panel data from 1996 to 2011, two-way fixed effects model ( Two-way FE) is established in empirical analysis. Results: Health investment has positive effects on the income growth of residents, but rural-urban differences and regional differences exist. The health investment income growth effect of rural area is higher than urban, and the effect of western area is higher than the east. Conclusion: While improving the level of urban medical health investment, it needs to focus on health investment in rural and western area. To make the health investment on income growth effect play its work efficiently, and narrow the rural-urban income gap and regional income gap.

Emodin is the main effective monomer of Rhubarb, which has a variety of pharmacological actions and valuable clinical applications.Recently, there are many reports about molecular mechanisms of emodin pharmacological actions,and they givehighly attention on the dephlogisticating and antineoplastic effects. These effects are achieved through affecting the concentration and transportation of ions, resisting of oxidation and free radical, and affecting the secretion of inflammatory factor and the enzyme activity and apoptosis and so on. This article summarizes the reports and hopes to provide theoretical basis for the practical application.

Aim To explore the effects of shuang shen tong guan(SSTG) drug serum on calcium and NOS-NO system in cardiomyocytes injured by hypoxia and reoxgyenization.Methods The cardiomyocytes were deprived of oxygen and glucose to mimic hypoxia reoxygenation injury.Intracellular calcium concentration was determined by Fluorospectrophotometry.NOS activity and NO contents were detected using colorimetric method.Results Intracellular calcium concentration,NOS activity and NO content were increased after hypoxia and reoxygenation injury.SSTG drug serum inhibted the upwards of intracellular calcium concentration,activity of total NOS,indusive NOS and NO content due to hypoxia/reoxygenation injury significantly(P

Objective To observe changes on those parameters on pletelet and hemoglobin of urinaemia patients by treatments of dialysis.Methods candidators are divided into three groups respectively-a control group,two case groups.The two case groups are consist of patients who are treated through dialysis on not.In the three groups,the parameters on pletelet,hemoglobin,MPV and PDW are measured on hemocytometer in our laboratory. Results Dramatic difference is made in the parameters on PLT,Hb,MPV and PDW between the formers of dialysis and the control group.(P

So as to explore the relationship between hypertension happen and combined phlegm and blood stasis,aswell as relations to fi ve zang-viscera,we analysis and study the related articles in literatures of past dynasties about phlegm,blood stasis with dizzy and headache,fi ve zang-viscera with dizzy and headache.We fi nd that there are relationships between phlegm and dizzy and headache,between blood stasis and dizzy and headache,between fi ve zang-viscera and dizzy and headache,as well as between phlegm,blood stasis and disorders of functions of fi ve zang-viscera.Thus,phlegm induces dizzy and headache,blood stasis induces dizzy and headache,the disorders of functions of fi ve zang-viscera cause phlegm or blood stasis,and the diseases of fi ve zang-viscera induce dizzy and headache.Therefore,the happen of dizzy and headache in hypertensive disease has direct or indirect relationships with diseases of fi ve zang-viscera,which should be noticed in clinical treatment.In clinical practices,we fi nd that in the f ive zang-viscera,the heart and kidney have the close relationship with hypertension.In literatures of past dynasties,the discuss about combined phlegm and blood stasis inducing diseases can be found,but there are no records about combined phlegm and blood stasis inducing dizzy and headache,though that is one of the most important pathological factors of hypertension happen in clinical treatment,so we should pay attention to combined phlegm and blood stasis in the treatment of hypertensive disease.

A large number of studies showed that hairy leukoplakia,pseudomembranous candidiasis,Kaposi' sarcoma,non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,linear gingival erythema,necrotizing ulcerative periodontitis and necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis were the most common lesions in patients with HIV infection and AIDS,and their higher prevalence and incidence rates correlated with the falling CD4 counts and higher virus load of the patients.The use of highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART) was associated with decreases in the prevalence of oral diseases.Oral manifestations may represent early signs of AIDS di-sease and call attention to disease progression.Oral fluid has been shown to possess superior sensitivity for HIV antibody detection as serum.Abstract:SUMM ARY A large number of stud ies showed that hairy leukoplakia,pseudomembranous cand id iasis,decreases in the prevalence of oral d iseases.Oral manifestations may represent early signs of AIDS d i-sease and call attention to d isease progression.Oral fluid has been shown to possess superior sensitivity forHIV antibody detection as serum.Kaposi’sarcoma,non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma,linear gingival erythema,necrotizing ulcerative periodonti-tis and necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis were the most common lesions in patients with HIV infection and AIDS,and their higher prevalence and incidence rates correlated with the falling CD4 counts and higher virus load of the patients.The use of highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART) was associated with

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of intravenous ibandronale in treating glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. Methods One hundred and fifty-three glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis patients were randomly divided into three groups: (1)control group (C group, 49 patients). (2) ibandronate group (1 group, 52 patients): Patients received intraveous injection of ibandronate (2 mg)once three mouths. (3)alfacaleidol group (R group, 52 patients): 0.25 ?g Rocaltrol once a day for six months. Each patient of the three groups received a daily 600 mg calcium supplement for six months. The efficacy was assessed by determining the subsequent change in bone mass density (BMD) of lumbar spine and femoral neck, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), serum calcium, serum phosphorus, serum alkaline phosphatase (AKP). Results (1) At the end of the trial, there was a significant increase of BMD of lumbar spine and femoral neck in I group and R group compared with the C group (P
