Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2016;15(12):949-951,955
Objective To investigate the incidence of surgical site infection(SSI)and compliance to bundle inter-vention measures on SSI following total abdominal hysterectomy in patients in department of gynaecology of a tertia-ry first-lass hospital,and evaluate the efficacy of bundle intervention measures in prevention and control of SSI. Methods From March 2014 to October 2015,all gynecology patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy were as targeted monitored subjects,March-September 2014 was baseline investigation stage,October 2014 to Oc-tober 2015 was intervention stage(new bundle intervention measures were performed),compliance to bundle inter-vention measures and incidence of SSI before and after intervention were compared.Results A total of 222 episodes of total abdominal hysterectomy were monitored,the incidence of SSI was 5 .86% ,the operation P75 time were 2 hours. Compared with the baseline stage,the compliance to most traditional intervention measures improved after intervention,the largest increase in the compliance to interventions was follow-up after surgery (increased by 64.16% ),followed by preoperative perineal disinfection(increased by 39.07% )and hand hygiene(increased by 21 .34% ). Compliance to new intervention measures was 100.00% . Incidence of SSI following total abdominal hys-terectomy after intervention was significantly lower than before intervention(2.27% [3/132]vs 11.11% [10/90]), difference was significant (χ2= 7.583,P<0.05).Conclusion Targeted monitoring on SSI following total abdomi-nal hysterectomy can improve compliance to bundle intervention measures and decrease incidence of SSI.
2.Treatment of 90 Cases of Simple Obesity with Intermuscular Needling Method
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2006;4(1):35-36
The patient takes a supine position, 10-20 needles were inserted thickly with intermuscular needling method in the two rounds, whose centers were both Tianshu (ST 25) and radii were 2 cun. Then, the electric acupuncture apparatus was connected. Meanwhile,bilateral Yanglingquan (GB 34), Sanyinjiao (SP6), Taichong (LR 3), Quchi (LI 11) and Zhigou (TE 6) were needled. Total 60 cases of obesity were treated with these methods, and 30 cases with conservative acupuncture as a control. The treatment results showed that the effective rates were 91.7% and 70.0%, respectively in the two groups.
3.Protective Effect of Salvianolic Acid B in Goto-kakizaki Rats Complicated with Macroangiopathy
China Pharmacist 2016;19(5):836-838
Objective:To study the protective effect and possible mechanism of salvianolic acid B in GK rats complicated with macroangiopathy. Methods:Totally 32 GK rats were randomly divided into four groups:the model group and low,middle and high dose salvianolic acid B groups(40,80 and 160 mg·kg - 1 ),and 8 Wistar rats were used as the normal group. All of GK rats were giv-en high-glucose and high-fat diet. After 16 weeks,GK rats were orally administrated with 10 mg·kg - 1 ·d - 1 N-ω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester for 8 weeks. At the beginning and the end of the experiment,blood glucose and blood pressure were measured,abdominal aortic blood was collected after anesthesia,thoracic aorta was used to make paraffin sections after bloodletting to observe vasculopathy and the expression of VEGF was detected by Western-blot. Results:The blood glucose was increased in all GK rats with no statistical significance between the drug group and the model group(P > 0. 05). At the end of the experiment,the blood pressure was significant-ly increased in GK rats,indicating that salvianolic acid B could notably reduce the blood pressure in GK rats in a dose-dependent man-ner with statistical significance(P < 0. 05);and it could also remarkably reduce the total white blood cell count and differential blood count,and ameliorate the lesion extent and reduce VEGF expression. Conclusion:Salvianolic acid B has protective effects on aorta in GK rats,and its mechanism may be related with blood pressure lowering,anti-inflammation and reduction of VEGF expression.
4.Effects of Traditional Chinese Medicine Ruanganyin on TGF-1/Smad Signaling Pathway in Carbon Tetrachloride-induced Hepatic Fibrosis of Rats
Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2006;0(02):-
[Aim]To study the effects of Ruanganyin on TGF-1,Smad3,Smad7 expressions of the experimental hepatic fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in rats,and to explore its anti-fibrotic molecular mechanism.[Method] Forty healthy Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group,vacant control group,CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis group,and Ruanganyin treated group.The rats in normal group were treated with normal saline by intragastrical irrigation,and the other groups were subcutaneous injected with CCl4 to establish hepatic fibrosis model.The histological changes of the liver tissues were examined by pathological examination.The protein expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-1) and Smad3,Smad7 were measured by immunohistochemical technique.[Result] In comparison with those inmodel group,the levels of TGF-1 were significantly decreased after treatment with Ruanganyin.Meanwhile,the levels of Smad3 was also down-regulated.However,the level of Smad7 expression was significantly up-regulated.The pathological changes of liver tissues in Ruanganyin groups were also markedly alleviated.[Conclusion] Ruanganyin has significant inhibitory effects on CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats,and its mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of TGF-1 expression,down-regulation of Smad3 expression and up-regulation of Smad7 expression.
7.Application of Zhang-Lu Index for Evaluation of Physical Growth of Neonates in Benxi Area
Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 1992;0(05):-
Objective To validate scientificalness,practicability and useful values in medical care of Zhang-Lu index(ZLI).Me-(thods) ZLI=weight(g)+250/height(cm)?head circumference(cm)?2 was computed and compared with the conventional body weight for gestational age based data of body height,body weight and head circumference measured from 858 neonates in Benxi.Results The ZLI of the first 3 days of fullterm appropriate for gestational age(AGA) was higher than reference from national neonatal physical growth science research association.The difference was significantly(P
8.Risk factors and prevention of neonatal respiratory distress
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2017;24(7):546-549
In recent years, with the increase of elective cesarean section rate and other factors,the rate of neonatal respiratory distress in full-term neonates is rising,which has aroused widespread concern.The risk factors and related mechanisms of respiratory distress syndrome in full-term infants were reviewed from two aspects of maternal and infant.Selective cesarean section, gestational age, fetal sex and some pregnancy complications can affect the rate of respiratory distress syndrome in full-term infants.Timely use of respiratory support and early use of pulmonary surfactant, and the combined use of comprehensive measures can reduce the mortality of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome rate.
10.Clinical observation of phacoemulsification and IOL implantation for cataract patients with glaucoma
International Eye Science 2014;(6):1071-1073
AIM: To observe the efficiency of phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation in the treatment of cataract and glaucoma.
METHODS:Totally 60 patients ( 70 eyes ) with cataract and glaucoma were included between March 2010 and March 2012 in our hospital. The phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation was performed. The observation of surgical efficiency, including the patient's IOP, anterior chamber depth, vision and complications, were compared before and after surgery.
RESULTS:Compared with preoperation, the patients'vision and anterior chamber depth were increased and the IOP was reduced significantly (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification with IOL implantation is a safe and effective treatment for cataract and glaucoma.
