Objective To explore the relationship between life events and depression of patients with primary sjgren's syndrome (PSS).Methods 80 patients with PSS complicating depressive disorder were tested by self-rating depression scale(SDS) and life event scale (LES),and compared with the control group including 80 PSS patients with non-depressive disorder matched with age and sex.Then the correlation between SDS and LES were analyzed.Results The total score of life events (32.72 ± 13.93),the score of negative life events (24.36 ±11.24),the score of SDS(58.60 ± 16.78) and the frequency of life events(91.3％) in the research group were higher than those in control group(P ＜ 0.05),but the positive life events score (7.15 ± 5.84) was lower than that in control group (9.76 ± 7.29),and there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05),there were more negative life events,especially on the aspects of family,work and study in the research group.There was positive correlation among the negative life events score,total score of life events and SDS score in the research group(P＜ 0.01),meanwhile,negative correlation was revealed between the score of positive life events and SDS score in the research group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Patients with PSS complicating depressive disorder experienced more negative life events which play an important role in depression of patients with PSS.

Objective To survey the prevalence and the related factors of depression in patients with primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome (pSS),and provide references for early mental intervention.Methods The depression state of 217 patients with pSS was screened with self-rating depression scale (SDS) first and then assessed by Hamilton depression scale (HAMD,17 index).The prevalence of depression was determined based on the diagnosis of psychiatrist based on the 3rd edition of Chinese classification of mental disorders (CCMD Ⅲ).The personality was evaluated by Eysenck personality questionnaire (EPQ),and the life events were questionnaired by life events scale (LES).The general condition was analyzed by self-designed questionnaire.Finally,step-wise multiple factor regression analysis was carried out to determine the risk factors that best accounted for the depression.Results The prevalence rate of depression in patients with pSS was 39.2％ (85/217).There were 5 factors entered the regression equation by multifactor regression analysis.They were severe pain,concerns of doctor and nurse,known of the fact by patients,adverse life events,and neuroticism of EPQ,and the concern of doctor and nurse was negatively correlated.Conclusion More attention from clinicians should be paid to the depression of pSS.Patients with severe pain,lack of attention from doctors and nurses,known of the disease itself,adverse life events and neurotic personality traits are factors related with depression.Recognizing the risk factors early can provide guidance for early psychological intervention.

Objective To investigate the prognosis of patients with Kawasaki's disease complicated with coronary artery lesion and to provide evidence for diagnosis and treatment of these patients. Methods This study was conducted during January 2002 to June 2007. All patients diagnosed as Kawasaki's disease complicated with coronary artery lesions were from the Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical College, the Second People's Hospital of Guangxi Province and Guilin Women and Childrens' Hospital. All cases were echocardiogram examined in month 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 in the purpose of observing the morphology of coronary artery. The study subjects were re-categorized to the groups of mild, moderate dilatation of coronary artery and giant coronary aneurysm, based on the severity of coronary artery lesion. The results of these results of the three groups were compared. Results Eighty-four cases in the mild group, 27 cases in the moderate group and 8 cases in the giant coronary aneurysm. The recovery cases were 23 (27%), 3 (11%) and 0 in the 3 groups respectively at month 3. The above numbers were 44 (52%), 8 (30%) and 0 respectively at month 6.The numbers were 69(82%), 13 (48%) and 1 (13%) at month 12. The numbers were 78 (93%), 19 (70%), 3 (38%) at month 24. The numbers were 82(98%), 20(74%) and 4(50%) at month 36. Thirteen patients were treated with adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) stress echocardiography examiantion, 5 patients were evaluated by coronary angiography,and 4 patients were tested by 64-slice CT coronary reconstruction. Part of the patients were found to have coronary stenosis or occlusion. Conclusion Patients of Kawasaki's disease often have concurrent coronary artery lesions. Patients with mild dilatation of the coronary artery are the most commonly seen and have the best prognosis. On the contrast, patients with giant coronary aneurysm are the lest common situation and is the worst in prognosis. Part of them will develop coronary artery stenosis or occlusion in late stage which may lead to ischemic heart disease. We should stress on close follow-up of patients with Kawasaki's disease complicated with coronary artery lesion. Appropriate and timely treatment will increase their clinical outcomes.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and any side effects of using ultrasound-guided injection of botulinum toxin A in treating juvenile sialorrhoea.Methods:Forty children with sialorrhoea were randomly divided into group A and group B, each of 20. Under the guidance of color Doppler ultrasound, botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) was injected into the children′s 2 parotid glands and their submandibular glands. Each parotid gland was injected with 20u of BoNT-A, while 10u was injected into the submandibular gland in group A and 20u was injected in group B. Before and 2, 8 and 12 weeks after the injections, the children′s sialorrhoea was evaluated using teacher drooling sizing (TDS), the drooling quotient and the Saxon test (ST). Any side-effects were also observed.Results:There was no significant difference in the average TDS score, drooling quotient or ST score between the two groups before the intervention. After the intervention all of those measurements had decreased significantly, but there were still no significant differences between the two groups in any measurement at any time point.Conclusions:Botulinum toxin type A injection under the guidance of ultrasound is accurate and safe. The injection of 10u is sufficient to relieve children′s sialorrhoea without serious side effects.

Objective:To explore the scheme of assigning rational scores to the Modified Pediatric Nutritional Risk Screening Tool for children with cerebral palsy(CP) at different Gross Motor Function Classification System(GMFCS) levels.Methods:The clinical data of 360 children with CP hospitalized in the Department of Children′s Rehabilitation, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January to October 2019 were analyzed retrospectively.All the CP children at different GMFCS levels who met the inclusion criteria were subject to nutrition screening and assessment by using the Modified Pediatric Nutritional Risk Screening Tool and the Subjective Global Nutritional Assessment(SGNA) scale.The distribution of malnutrition rates assessed by the SGNA scale among the children at different GMFCS levels was examined.Data between groups were compared by the χ2 test.Children at different GMFCS levels were divided into different subgroups according to the statistical difference.Then, 0 or 1 score was assigned to the Modified Pediatric Nutritional Risk Screening Tool in different subgroups, and different combinations were formed.The nutritional risk screening results of different combinations were evaluated by using the SGNA scale assessment results as a reference. Results:In children with CP, the risk detection rate and incidence rate of malnutrition were 58.1%(209/360) and 36.9%(133/360), respectively.There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of malnutrition between GMFCS Ⅱ and GMFCS Ⅲ, as well as between GMFCS Ⅳ and GMFCS Ⅴ(all P>0.05). Therefore, children with CP were divided into 3 subgroups, namely, group Ⅰ, group Ⅱ to Ⅲ, and group Ⅳ to Ⅴ.Different CP disease scores were given to the Modified Pediatric Nutritional Risk Screening Tool in 3 subgroups, forming 3 different protocols[protocol 1 (0, 0, 1 point); protocol 2(0, 1, 1 point); current protocol (1, 1, 1 point)]. Taking the SGNA scale assessment results as a reference, the sensitivity of protocol 1, protocol 2 and current protocol were 85.7%, 92.5%, and 93.2% respectively.The specificity protocol 1, protocol 2 and current protocol were 81.1%, 78.0%, and 62.6%, respectively.And the Youden indexes of above three protocols were 0.668, 0.705, and 0.558, respectively.The Youden index of protocol 2 was relatively high. Conclusions:The Modified Pediatric Nutritional Risk Screening Tool can effectively identify the risk of malnutrition in children with CP.The scheme of assigning 0 points to children with GMFCS grade Ⅰ and 1 point to children with GMFCS grade Ⅱ to Ⅴ is more reasonable.
