Background The severity of difficulty in falling asleep and the insufficiency of the sleeping time in the primary insomniacs always were overestimated, even after medication and improving the objective sleep quality. Moreover, remarkable psychosomatic symptoms were found in patients and the symptoms were significantly linked to the self-reported sleep quality. So in this study, it was designed to explore the differences between objective and subjective sleep quality and its correlative factors in chronic insomniacs.Methods A total of 55 chronic primary insomniac cases diagnosed by DSM-Ⅳ diagnostic criteria for primary insomnia and 15 normal controls were rated with Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI),State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and the Subjective General Condition Form. All cases and the controls were then examined by the whole-night polysomnography (PSG) records.Results Compared with the objective parameters of PSG, the subjective parametersiu chronic insomniacs had significantly longer sleep latency and lower total sleep time and sleep efficiency [ (80. 3± 73.7)min v.s. (23.2 ± 25.4) min, (157.8±141.7)min v.s. (332.2±154.7)min , (0.52 ±0. 27) min v.s. (0. 67 ± 0. 28) min, respectively, P <0. 001 ]. The difference between subjective and objective sleep latency was related to the total scores of STAI, TAI and SAI ( r = 0. 402,0. 374 and 0. 397, respectively, P < 0. 05).Conclusions There were significant differences between objective and subjective estimations of sleep quality in chronic insomniacs,and they might result in the overestimation of the severity of insomnia. The differences between subjective and objective sleep quality in the chronic insomniacs were significantly correlated with the levels of anxiety.

Background During the past two decades, a number of rating scales were developed to facilitate diagnosis and assessment of subjects with social anxiety disorder. One of the most commonly used scales for the assessment of social anxiety disorder is the Liebowitz social anxiety scale (LSAS). The LSAS is widely used in epidemiologic investigations and clinical researches,and its assessment in the pharmacotherapy efficacy for social anxiety disorder is superior to any other scale. So we designed this study to explore the validity and reliability of the LSAS in Chinese patients with social anxiety disorder and normal control, and to find the difference of the scores between the patients self -report version and clinician-administered version. Methods Fifty five patients meeting the DSM-Ⅳ diagnostic criteria for social anxiety disorder and 168 normal controls who were screened from 222 college students were rated by LSAS, social phobia scale and self-made General Information Forms. Results The Cronbath α of LSAS for the patients and the normal controls was 0.83 and 0.77, respectively. The 4-week test-retest reliability for total scores and its factors scores of LSAS in 31 normal controls were ranging from 0.68 to 0.79. The ROC area under curve value in discriminating the patients from normal controls was 0.87±0.03; the total score of 35 was considered to be the best cut-off score for LSAS, then its sensitivity was 0.77 and its specificity was 0.81; and no significant difference between the self-report version and clinician-administered version. Conclusions The LSAS is good in internal consistency and test-retest reliability, and has high sensitivity and specificity in discriminating the patients and the controls. There is no significant difference in the total score and each factor scores of LSAS between self-report version and clinician-administered version.

ObjectiveTo investigate the early clinical risk factors of severe acute inhaled organic fluorine poisoning.Methods The clinical data of patients with acute poisoning of organic fluorine inhalation admitted since 2004 in Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According toDiagnostic Criteria of Occupational Acute Fluorohydrocarbon Poisoning(GBZ66-2002), all the patients were divided into three groups: mild, moderate and severe poisoning groups, the severe cases were included in the intensive group, and the others were grouped in the non-intensive group. The contents in the survey were as follows: gender, age, vital signs on admission (body temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure), arterial blood gas analysis record〔arterial oxygen saturation(SaO2), oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2), lactic acid(Lac) and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2), pH value(pH)〕. Before treatment, the white blood cell(WBC) count, platelet(PLT) count, levels of alanine transaminase(ALT), creatinine(Cr), blood glucose, electrolytes(potassium, sodium, chloride, calcium), creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB), etc. were examined and recorded. All the patients were immediately arranged for bedside chest X-ray examination, and the chest X-ray lung injury scores were recorded. By univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the diagnostic value of the clinical risk factors.Results Sixty-two cases consisting with the standard criteria of enrollment were collected in the study, 36 cases being in intensive group and 26 cases in non-intensive group. The univariate analysis showed that the differences in pulse rate, respiratory rate, PaO2/FiO2, WBC, SaO2, Lac, pH, and lung injury score were statistically significant(P<0.05 orP<0.01). Logistic multiple regression analysis showed that PaO2/FiO2, WBC, Lac and chest X-ray lung injury score were the four indexes for predicting the independent risk factors of severe acute inhaled organic fluorine poisoning. The area under ROC curve(AUC) of PaO2/FiO2 was the highest(0.884), 95% confidence interval(95%CI) was 0.784 - 0.984, the critical value was 96.5 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), with the sensitivity of 75.6%, specificity of 95.2%, positive predictive value(PPV) of 92.3% and the negative predictive value(NPV) of 71.4%, in sequence, the rest were WBC(AUC 0.846, 95%CI 0.728 - 0.965, the criticalvalue 12.15×109/L), Lac(AUC 0.800, 95%CI 0.662 - 0.938, the critical value 4.2 mmol/L), chest X-ray lung injury score(AUC 0.795, 95%CI 0.652 - 0.938, the critical value 2.50), the sensitivity of the above three items was 90.2%, 83.6%, 88.5%, specificity was 90.2%, 83.6%, 88.5%, the PPV was 86.7%, 82.4%, 85.8% and NPV was 72.0%, 73.9%, 69.2% respectively.ConclusionThe blood WBC count, Lac, PaO2/FiO2 and chest X-ray lung injury score can be used as the early clinical risk factors of severe acute inhaled organic fluorine poisoning.

Objective: To explore the peri-operative treatment and 3 years post-operative outcome in patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and small left ventricle. Methods: A total of 152 patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis and severe pulmonary hypertension were studied. According to left ventricular end diastolic index (LVEDI) value, the patients were divided into 2 groups: Small left ventricle (Small) group, the patients with LVEDI value≤60 mm, n=67 and Non-small left ventricle (Non-small) group, the patients with LVEDI value>60 mm,n=85. Peri-operative condition and follow-up parameters were compared between 2 groups. Results: Compared with Non-small group, Small group had increased pre-operative CVP, SPAP and decreased LVEDV, LVEDVI and RVEF at admission, all P<0.05. All patients had liver damage at admission, the indexes (except alkaline phosphatase) were higher in Small group than Non-small group, and the function was recovered prior operation by proper treatment. The immediate post-operative SPAP in Small group and Non-small group were (67.3.1±23.4) mmHg and (61.3±26.9) mmHg, P>0.05. There were 52 severe pulmonary hypertension patients received iloprost inhalation, their SPAP was decreased than non-inhalation patients at incision closing; SPAP was lower in Small group inhalation patients than Non-small group inhalation patients, all P<0.05. Post-operative LVEDVI was lower and SPAP was higher in Small group than Non-small group. At 3 years post-operation, LVEDVI, RVEF increased, NYHA classification decreased and 6MWT prolonged in both groups; while LVEDVI was lower and 6MWT was shorter in Small group than Non-small group, P<0.05. The median survival time at (3.7±1.6) years post-operation was shorter in Small group than Non-small group,P<0.05, while the mortality was similar between 2 groups (2.6% vs 2.0%),P>0.05. Conclusion: The patients with mitral valve stenosis and small left ventricle had the worse pre-operative condition and higher risk in surgery; peri-operative treatment could improve their cardiac and liver function, but they still had the shorter post-operative median survival time.
