Objective To evaluate the correlation between osteophytes size and lower limb alignment in the knees of patients with Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD).Methods A total of 300 clinically diagnosed patients with KBD were X-rayed on knee-joints which ranged from the distal half of femur to proximal half of tibia.Meanwhile some related parameters in the X film with the anteroposterior position (including osteophytes length,femorotibial angle,femorotibial joint space ratio of inner side to outer side) were measured by DICOM 2.0,a software of medical graphic measuring,then followed by calculating the osteophyte spur index.The association between femorotibial angle,femorotibial joint space ratio and osteophytes spur index was evaluated by Pearson correlation test.Results The average of femorotibial angle of all the tested knee-joints was (165.97 ± 4.02)°,which positively correlated with both the osteophyte spur index of the medial femoral condyle [(6.54 ± 3.12)％,correlation coefficient (r) =0.524,P＜0.01] and the osteophyte spur index of medial tibil plateau [(7.14 ± 3.40)％,r =0.578,P ＜0.01].The femorotibial joint space ratio was 0.61 ± 0.13,which positively correlated with both the osteophyte spur index of medial femoral condyle (r =0.531,P ＜0.01) and that of the medial tibil plateau (r =0.563,P ＜0.01).Conclusions The results of this study indicate that there is a positive correlation between lower limb alignment and osteophyte size of both the medial femoral condyle and the medial tibial plateau.This finding may be evidenced by the fact that the changes of lower limb biomechanics may contribute to formation and development of osteophytes in the kneejoint.

Objective To observe the condition of Keshan disease (KSD) in Gansu Province in order to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of the disease. Methods In 2011, according to “The national Keshan Disease Monitoring Program (trial edition)”, based on searching of KSD cases, 12 villages of 12 towns in 6 counties of Gansu Province, were selected as surveillance sites. All the residents in surveillance sites were clinically examined and given 12-lead ECG tracings; suspected cases were taken anterior chest X-rays in the distance of 2 meters, while staple food and life conditions of the residents were surveyed. Diagnosis of KSD was based on“Keshan Disease Diagnostic Criteria”(WS/T 210-2011). Results Among investigated 5 484 residents, the incidence of abnormal electrocardiogram was 15.41%. Of the 196 X-ray films, 61 cases had enlarged heart(in which 22 of mild, 21 of moderate and 18 of severe). Two hundred and forty-three cases of KSD were detected, the general detection rate was 4.43%, in which 31 cases of chronic, the detection rate was 0.56%; 212 cases of potential, the detection rate was 3.87%. In all cases, 47 cases were under the age of 30, including 46 cases of potential and 1 case of chronic. The major abnormal electrocardiogram change of KSD cases was ST-T changes[22.68%(71/313)], followed by complete right bundle branch block[16.29%(51/313)], low voltage[12.46%(39/313)], and left anterior fascicular block[6.71%(21/313)]. Per-capita annual income in surveillance site was 1 763 Yuan;and the major staple food was flour, accounted for 87%, and the staple food rice accounted for 5%. Conclusion The detection rate of KSD in Gansu Province is mainly to potential, and there is a cosiderable portion of patients under the age of 30;monitoring and investigation should also be strengthened in the younger age of KSD cases detected village.

Objective To grasp the epidemic features of Kaschin-Beck disease in different ecotypic areas in Gansu Province,in order to provide ecological basis for Kashin-Beck disease control.Methods Totally 37 counties with Kashin-Beck disease were divided into four ecological areas,villages with historical serious condition in township and townships with historical serious condition in county were investigated.Clinical examination and Xray of right hand of all 7-12-year-old children in the villages were carried out,while investigation of prevention and control measures was performed.Results Among 27 966 children from four ecological areas,the clinical detection rate was 0.05％ (14/27 966) and the X-ray positive rate was 1.26％ (353/27 966),metaphyseal rate was 1.25％ (350/27 966),bone-side positive rate was 0.01％ (3/27 966) and no case of epiphyseal and carpal were discovered.The clinical detection rate in children in the four ecological areas was not statistically significant (x2() =7.757,P ＞0.05),the Loess Plateau-gully region of Longdong [0.09％ (10/11 604)] ＞ the Anyon area of Qinling of Longnan [0.04％ (3/7 969)] ＞ Alpine grassland meadow area of Gannan [0.02％ (1/4 021)] ＞ the Loess Plateau-hills region of Longzhong [0 (0/4 372)].The detected rate of X-ray in four ecological areas was statistically significant (x2 =18.133,P ＜ 0.05),the Anyon area of Qinling of Longnan [1.49％ (119/7 969)] ＞ the Loess Plateau-gully region of Longdong [1.41％ (164/11 604)] ＞ the Loess Plateau-hills region of Longzhong [0.89％ (39/4 372)] ＞ Alpine grassland meadow area of Gannan [0.77％ (31/4 021)].Comprehensive prevention and control measures on Kaschin-Beck disease were different in different ecotypic areas.Relocation,long-distance education and selenium supplement measures had not been implemented in the four ecological areas.Conclusion The epidemic situation of Kaschin-Beck disease is different in different ecotypic areas in Gansu Province,which maybe related to ecological environment,but is under a state of control.

Objective To study the correlation between patellar stability and keen clinical manifestation in adults with Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD).Methods Through a cross-sectional study in September 2016,one hundred and forty-three adult patients with KBD were asked to accept a digital radiographic X-ray (DR) which included positive and lateral slices of knee joint and axis slice of patellar.Meanwhile,every patient must undergo a Lysholm function evaluation for knee joint and morphological measurement on the DR film which included Insall index,lateral patellofemoral angle,sulcus angle,congruence angle,lateral migrating ratio of patella,and patellofemoral index.Then,the regression equation was built and the correlation analysis was made with multiple linear regression test.Results One hundred and forty-three patients' average scores of Insall index,lateral patellofemoral angle,sulcus angle,congruence angle,lateral migrating ratio of patella,patellofemoral index and Lysholm score were 1.10 ± 0.17,(14.49 ± 1.47)°,(138.08 ± 3.86)°,(11.55 ± 2.17)°,(1.34 ± 0.13)％,1.18 ±0.10,and (62.96 ± 6.11) scores.By multiple linear regression test,Insall index (X1),congruence angle (X4),lateral migrating ratio of patella (X5),and patellofemoral index (X6) were selected to enter into the equation;while,lateral patellofemoral angle and sulcus angle were rejected.The multiple linear regression equation was as follows:Y =17.529 + 15.232X5 + 0.950X4 + 15.957X6-4.224X1.The adjusted determination coefficient (R2) of the equation was 0.559.Those indexes which were selected to enter into the equation were ranked from big to small based on the impact on Lysholm as follow:congruence angle,lateral migrating ratio of patella,patellofemoral index,and Insall index.Among them,Lysholm score had a negative correlation with Insall index.Through variance analysis,F valve was 46.642,and P ＜ 0.05,which meant the fitted equation had statistical significance.Conclusion There is significant correlation between the patellar stability and knee Lysholm scoring in adult with KBD,which is reflected with the following parameters from big to small in turn:patellofemoral index,lateral migrating ratio of patella,congruence angle and Insall index.

Objective To explore the relationship between prevalence of Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) and ecological environment, and to broaden the perspective of KBD etiology. Methods In 37 counties of KBD areas in Gansu Province, information about the ecological environment and implementation situation of control measures (altitude, temperature, rainfall, evapo ration, frost free period, annual sunshine hours, population density, per capita income, the proportion of staple food, returning farmland to forest, to forestry and replant crops) and X-ray detection rate of KBD of 7-12-year-old children in 2012 - 2014 was collected. Using four quantile regression method, the regression model was introduced to analyze the 11 ecological factors which related to the pathogenesis of KBD. The effect of three points on X-ray detection rate of KBD was estimated. Results The X-ray detection rate of KBD was independent of altitude, temperature, evaporation, population density, per capita income and cash crops, and was dependent of rainfall, frost free period, annual sunshine hours, the staple food purchase ratio, and returning farmland to forest and grassland. No matter where in any place numbered, the higher rainfall (measure value:0.003 3 to 0.006 4), the longer frost free period (measure value: 0.029 2 to 0.043 8), the longer annual sunshine hours (measure value:0.001 6 to 0.001 8), and the higher staple food purchase ratio (measure value:0.019 7 to 0.027 6), the higher risk of X-ray detection rate of KBD; the higher returning farmland to forest and to grassland, the lower risk of X-ray detection rate of KBD (measure value: - 0.037 2 to - 0.013 3). Conclusion The X-ray detection rate of KBD is closely related to local ecological environment.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of self-management treatment for patients with chronic Keshan disease in Gansu Province.Methods:From March to June 2018, 243 patients with chronic Keshan disease who were treated by self-management treatment outside the hospital in 7 Keshan disease counties in Gansu Province were selected as the survey subjects, and their general demographic and clinical data were collected. At the same time, the survey subjects were given a 6-month self-management treatment, and the self-management scale was used to evaluate the patients' self-management behavior before treatment and 6 months after treatment. The higher the score, the better the patients' self-management behavior. The influencing factors of self-management scale were analyzed by multiple linear regression analysis.Results:Excluding incomplete data, a total of 158 patients with chronic Keshan disease were included in this survey, including 96 males and 62 females. Compared with patients before self-management treatment, the patients' cardiac function classification and work ability improved significantly after 6 months of self-management treatment ( Z = - 4.685, - 5.934, P < 0.05); cardiothoracic ratio decreased (0.61 ± 0.08 vs 0.63 ± 0.09, t = 5.175, P < 0.05); in the cardiac color Doppler ultrasound indexes, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) were increased (0.41 ± 0.11 vs 0.36 ± 0.07, 0.21 ± 0.07 vs 0.18 ± 0.05, t = - 6.504, - 5.391, P < 0.05); the total score of the self-management scale was increased [(53.86 ± 9.29) scores vs (51.46 ± 10.50) scores, t = - 3.696, P < 0.05]. Further analysis of the efficacy of the patients' cardiac function classification showed that the patients' medication compliance was positively correlated with the efficacy of the cardiac function classification ( r = 0.243, P < 0.05). The result of multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level and efficacy of the cardiac function classification were influencing factors of the self-management scale for patients with chronic Keshan disease ( t = 2.466, 2.635, P < 0.05). Conclusion:The self-management treatment for patients with chronic Keshan disease can effectively improve heart function and improve self-management behavior.

Objective To explore the influences of guided education training on quality of life of long-term inpatients with schizophrenia. Methods A total of 79 inpatients ( at last one year for being hospitalized) with schizophrenia were divided into control group ( routine treatment and nursing ) and observation group ( routine treatment and nursing combined with guided education rehabilitation training ) according to random number table method from April 2013 to March 2014. Patients between two groups were evaluated with insight and treatment attitude questionnaire ( ITAQ) , scale of social function for psychosis in-patients ( SSFPI) , social support rating scale ( SSRS) , generic quality of life inventory ( GQOLI) one day before intervention and twelve, twenty-four weeks after intervention. Results Twelve weeks after intervention, quality of life of patients in observation group was higher than that in control group with a significant difference (P<0. 05), while there were no significant difference among other aspects(P>0. 05). Twenty-four weeks after intervention, the scores of ITAQ, SSFPI, SSRS, GQOLI in observation group were better than those in control group with significant differences (P<0. 05). Conclusions The guided education training can effectively improve the quality of life of long-term inpatients with schizophrenia.

Keshan disease is an endemic cardiomyopathy of unclear cause.The major clinical manifestations are cardiac dysfunction and arrhythmia.Based on time course of onset and cardiac function of a suffering patient,Keshan disease is generally classified into four types:acute,sub-acute,chronic and latent types.This article elaborates on the pharmacological mechanisms and dosages of drug treatment for heart failure:diuretics,neurohormonal antagonists,ivabradine,positive inotropic drugs,vasodilators,etc,in order to provide basis for clinical treatment of chronic Keshan disease.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and causes of death of chronic Keshan disease cases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the last clinical data of 39 death cases of chronic Keshan disease who were repeatedly hospitalized in Jingchuan County People's Hospital from March 2016 to August 2020 before their death, including gender, age, course of disease, clinical symptoms and signs, chest X-ray, electrocardiogram, cardiac echocardiography, causes of death, etc., and analysis was made on the clinical characteristics related to the death of chronic Keshan disease cases.Results:Among the 39 death cases of chronic Keshan disease, 27 cases (69.2%) were male and 12 cases (30.8%) were female. The age was (62.64 ± 8.63) years old, and the median course of disease was 5 years. Dyspnea [37 cases (94.9%)] and edema [33 cases (84.6%)] were the main clinical symptoms. All cases had varying degrees of cardiac enlargement, pulmonary congestion signs, and abnormal changes in electrocardiogram. Among the causes of death, 18 cases (46.2%) were sudden cardiac death, 11 cases (28.2%) were heart failure, 5 cases (12.8%) were cardiogenic shock, and 3 cases (7.7%) were heart failure combined with cardiogenic shock, and 2 cases (5.1%) had other causes.Conclusion:Dyspnea and edema are the main clinical characteristics of death cases of chronic Keshan disease, sudden cardiac death, heart failure and cardiogenic shock are the three common causes of death.
