ObjectiveTo observe the effect of application of health education model on patients un-dergoing extracorpereal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi. MethodsWe randomly divided 278 patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi into the experimental group(136 cases) and the control group(142 cases).The experimental group received health education according to the model of health education, while the control group adopted routine health education. The treatment effect of lithotripsy after 1 week,2 weeks and 1 month was evaluated. ResultsAfter health education,the cure rate at I week after lithotripsy was 50.7%, which was higher than that of the control group,28.2%, the cure rates at 2 weeks and 1 month were 58.2% and 86.0%, which were better than those of the control group, 49.0% and 70.4%. ConclusionsApplication of health education model can improve the treatment effect of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi and alleviate pain of patients as soon as possible.

Objective To evaluate the value of using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)technique for the detection of chromosome aberration of urine exfoliated cells for the diagnosis of bladder tumor.MethodsFISH technique were used to detect the abnormalities of chromosome 3,7,17 and 9p16 site from 20 normal people, and to establish the threshold.The morning's first urinations were available from 75 patients with bladder cancer and 25 patients without urothelial tumor, then were detected using FISH technique and urine cytology respectively.The sample was considered positive if two or more probes results higher than the criteria,or one probe has two or more abnormal results.Results The sensitivity of single using were 73.3％ (55/75),76.0％ (57/75),62.7％ (47/75) and 62.7％ (47/75) for the 4 probes (3,7, 17 and 9p16)respectively.The sensitivity of combined detection was 85.3％ (64/75) and specificity was 96.0％ (24/25) The sensitivity and specificity of urine cytology examination was 9.3％ (7/75) and 100％ (25/25) .The sensitivity of FISH examination was significantly higher than that of urine cytology examination (85.3％ vs 9.3％ ,x2 = 57.00, P ＜ 0.001) .Sensitivity of FISH examination was not correlated with cancer pathologic grading(low vs high : 84.2％ vs 86.5％, x2 = 0.08, P ＞ 0.05)and clinical stage (ta-tl : 82.9％, t2-t4 :87.5％, x2 = 0.32 ,P ＞ 0.05) .ConclusionFISH technique is a non-invasive and effective method for the early diagnosis of bladder tumor and is more sensitive than urine cytology.Furthermore, FISH technique can be used to predict the tumor's biological behavivor and prognosis.

Objective We discussed the influence of health education on uncertainty of patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. Methods We divided 60 patients who were to undergo extracorporeal shock wave lithitripsy into the control group and the test group with 30 eases in each group. The test group implement systemic education according to the health education model. The control group received routine health education. Uncertainty about illness was measured by Mishel uncertainty in illness scale (MUIS) on admission, 1 day before lithotripsy and on discharge from hospital in the two groups. Results The illness uncertainty of the test group 1 day before lithotripsy and on discharge from hospital decreased evidently compared with that of on admission (P<0.01). The decrease amplitude was statistically different from that of the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Health education through application of health education model could significantly decrease the illness uncertainty of patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.

Objective We aimed to discuss the model of health education for patients undergoing extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi and validate its effect. Methods We divided 490 patients who were to undergo extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urinary calculi into the control group (230 cases) and the test group (260 cases). The test group received health education according to the model of health education. While the control group adopted routine health education method. The ache during operation, treatment effect and incidence rate of complications in the two groups were evaluated and compared. Results The incidence rate of pain, complications and effective rate in the test group was 6.92%, 4.99% and 99.23%, which were better than those of the control group (28.26%, 16.09% and 96.09%), P＜0.01. Conclusions Establishment of the model of health education could improve the treatment effect of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, reduce the incidence rate of complications and the relase rate of urinary calculi.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods The clinical data of 438 patients with severe pneumonia who were admitted in the intensive care unit in 2016 were retrospectively analyzed for analysis of AKI and assessment of risk factors. Results Among the 438 patients with severe pneumonia,the incidence of AKI was 53.42%. Within 72 hours after admission into the ICU, 86.75% of them developed AKI mainly from hypovolemic or septic shock(accounting for 80.34%). The detection rate of AKI by the standards of RIFLE and AKIN was lower than by the standards of KDIGO (45.89%,48.17%vs. 53.42%). Anemia ,shock /hypotension ,drugs ,RRT ,APPACHE II scores were the predictors of AKI. Conclusions The incidence of severe pneumonia complicated with AKI is high. Most of the patients develop it in 72 hours after admission into the ICU. Anemia,shock/hypotension,drugs,RRT,APPACHE II scores are its risk factors.

Animal models of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH),aiming to simulate human characteristics of the disease,have contributed extensively to understanding the pathophysiology of PAH and the investigation of experimental treatments.The classical models include monocrotaline models,chronic hypoxia model and so on,more new models were investigated in recent years.These animal models were not able to perfectly mimic human pathological characteristics of PAH because of the defect in different aspects.In this review,both typical and novel methods of PAH modeling were summarized and evaluated to provide a suitable guidance for the settlement of animal models which can meet human characteristics comprehensively.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a proliferative vascular retinal disease. Cryotherapy, laser photocoagulation, intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, scleral buckling surgery and vitrectomy are the main treatments. Treated with cryotherapy or laser photocoagulation or intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, patients with a history of ROP have thicker foveas, and the morphology of the fovea and the development of the retinal vessels in the macular area are affected, resulting in abnormal vision development. However, the specific mechanisms by which different treatments of ROP affecting the development of the macula are not yet clear. It still need further study with large samples to verify and explore, whether changes in the levels of intraocular vascular endothelial growth factor changing the process of normal macular development and how the abnormal development of the macula affects visual function.
