Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2013;32(12):1300-1302
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of upper gastrointestinal diseases in very old people (aged ≥ 90 years),and to explore the necessity and safety of the gastroscopy for the super elderly people.Methods Clinical data of 50 very old people were retrospectively analyzed.Results The total detection rate of upper gastrointestinal disease was 76.0% (38/50),in which the reflux esophagitis (RE) was the most common (26.0%),followed by erosive gastritis (20.0%),atrophic gastritis (18.0 %),peptic ulcer (12.0 %),gastrointestinal cancer (10.0%),duodenitis (8.0%) and fundic gland polyps (6.0%) respectively.RE lesions detected by gastroscopy were mainly mild and were divided into endoscopic grade LA-A (46.1%),LA-B (30.8%),LA C (7.7%),and LA-D (15.4%) according to the Los Angeles classification.The most common symptoms were abdominal distension and anorexia,and the both incidences were 12.0%.There was no significant difference in the prevalence of clinical symptoms between the elderly people with upper gastrointestinal disease and without abnormal gastroscopic findings [44.7% (17/38) vs.41.7% (5/12),x2 =0.035,P>0.05].22 patients (44.0%) underwent gastroscopy under intravenous anesthesia.Conclusions The incidence of upper gastrointestinal disease is high in very old people,and mild reflux esophagitis is the most common.Clinical symptoms are little or asymptomatic in most very old people.Gastroscopy under intravenous anesthesia is safe and feasible for the very old people.

Objective To investigate the disease causing gene of Stargardt disease. Method Fifteen patients with Stargardt disease were analyzed with 11 primers of the 11 exons of ABCR gene by using PCR SSCP and DNA direct sequencing techniques. Results Three newly detected disease causing mutations were found. Among those mutations, one is a frameshift mutation and others are single base transition. Conclusion This research confirmed that ABCR gene is associated with Stargardt disease, and 3 new mutations of ABCR gene were found.

Objective Comparison on the influence of invigorating spleen and restoring virility to the NPY level in brain and gene expression. Method Establishing the spleen insufficiency model of rat by adopting bitter decline diarrhea, wild eating and overworking, to examine the hypothalamus ventral kernel, the hippocampi CA1 area and forehead cortex, the gene expression change of NPY. Result In the model group, the immunoreaction masculine substance of NPY, hypothalamus ventral kernel,hippocampi CA1 area and prefrontal cortex decreases obviously. The immunoreaction masculine substance of NPY on above mentioned parts in the group of invigorating spleen and restoring virility increases distinctly. In the model group, the expression of NPY mRNA on prefronta cortex and hypothalamus ventral kernel decreases obviously, while on the groups of invigorating spleen and restoring virility increases obviously. Conclusion In the model group, the NPY level and gene expression in brain to promote study memory changed. Invigorating spleen and restoring virility may affect study memory by regulating the NPY level and gene expression.

Objective To observe the morphologic features of neurons labeled with green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene recombinant Sindibis virus in the deep part of lamina Ⅲ in the medullary dorsal horn (MDH) of the rat. Methods Neurons were infected and labeled with GFP gene recombinant Sindibis virus injected into lamina Ⅲ.Immunohistchemical staining showed the labeling results.The morphologic features of the GFP labeled neurons were revealed after reconstruction. Results A few GFP-labeled single neurons were found in the distal portions away from the virus injection site within the deep part of lamina Ⅲ of the MDH.According to the morphological features,especially their axons and axonal collaterals,GFP labeled neurons were classified into projection neurons and intrinsic neurons.The axons and their collaterals of the projection neurons entered to the superficial part of lamina Ⅲ,lamina Ⅱ and/or the medullary reticular formation.Most of the axons and their collaterals of the intrinsic neurons extended mainly within lamina Ⅲ.Conclusions According to the morphological features of axons and their axonal collaterals,GFP labeled neurons were classified into projection neurons and intrinsic neurons in the deep part of lamina Ⅲ of the MDH.GFP gene recombinant virus labeling technique is an effective method to investigate the morphological features of neurons.

Objective To investigate the effect of clinical nursing pathway on patients with cerebral infarction. Methods Two hundred patients with cerebral infarction were randomized by random digit table into the clinical pathway group and the conventional nursing group.The former was managed with the clinical nursing pathway and the latter received conventional nursing. The neurologic impairment and the activities of daily life were assessed respectively by national institute of health stroke scale(NIHSS) and Barthel index(BI).The two groups were compared in terms of hospital stay,medical expense,patient’s satisfaction and curative effect. Results Compared to the conventional nursing group,the clinical pathway group was shorter at hospital stay,lower at lower hospitalization cost,higher at patient’s satisfaction and higher in the score by Barthel index,compared to the conventional nursing group(all P<0.05). Conclusion The application of clinical nursing pathway in patients with cerebral infarction can improve the activities of daily living and the quality of care,shorten length of stay,reduce medical cost and increase patients’satisfaction drgree.

Objective To discuss the influence of individualized health education based on combination of TCM and western medicine on the life quality of patients with diabetes mellitus in order to supply novel idea and method for carried out education about diabetes mellitus. Methods Hospitalized patients (140 cases) were randomized into the control group and the test group with 70 cases in each group. Both groups received routine diabetes drugs treatment. The patients and their family members received individualized health education based on combination of TCM and western medicine during their hospitalization days and 6 months after discharge. SF-36 inventory and diabetes cognitive questionnaire was adopted to investigate the two groups. Results The diabetes cognitive degree of the test group was higher than that of the control group (P<0.01). Six items such as social function, systemic health, body pain, psychological health, vigor and emotional role function of the test group was different from those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Individualized health education based on combination of TCM and western medicine contributed to the improvement of patients' life quality.
