Objective: To investigate the significance of doctor -patient communication courses to medical staff.Methods:Using self-made questionnaire and self -evaluation of anxiety scale (SAS), selection in our u-niversity study of 200 cases of medical personnel , in accordance with the doctor -patient communication before and after the course is divided into classes before and after teaching group , respectively on two groups before and after learning the medical staff on the SAS scores and questionnaire survey .Results:Compared with group before teach-ing, teaching group after medical staff thought through the study of doctor -patient communication course , is con-ducive to cultivating communication consciousness , improve doctor -patient communication skills as well as pre-venting the doctor-patient contradiction (P<0.05).After teaching group SAS score (34.50 ±6.88), signifi-cantly lower than the teaching group SAS score (45.51 ±6.97), difference was statistically significant (t =15 .622 ,P<0 .01 ) .Conclusion:Doctor-patient communication courses are effective way to improve the ability to communicate , to alleviate the anxiety of the medical staff at the same time also has a certain value .

AIM　The purpose is to study the anti-arrhythmic effects of extracts from cultured Cordyceps sinensis. METHODS　Aconitine and barium chloride were used to induce experimental arrhythmia models in rats. RESULTS　The results showed that PE was more potent than other ingredients. Pretreatment with PE by oral administration significantly antagonized arrhythmia induced by aconitine. PE significantly prolonged the onset of arrhythmia, decreased the duration and diminished the degree of severity. And in barium chloride-induced arrhythmia model, PE had some anti-arrhythmia effect，which could diminish the degree of severity effectively to some extent. CONCLUSION　PE is an active component to antagonize arrhythmia induced by aconitine and barium chloride.

OBJECTIVETo observe the efficacy of Xingnaojing Injection (XI) in treatment of sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE).

METHODSTotally 65 SAE patients were retrospectively analyzed at EICU from September 2010 to September 2013. They were assigned to the control group (32 cases) and the treatment group (33 cases) according to whether they received XI. Patients in the control group received anti-infection and symptomatic support, while those in the treatment group were intravenously injected with XI at 20 mL per day for additional 7-10 days. The fever clearance time, Glasgow coma scale (GCS), C-reactive protein (CRP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and improvement of electroen-cephalogram (EEG) were observed in the two groups.

RESULTSCompared with the control group, the fever clearance time was shortened, CRP levels decreased, GCS score and efficacy of EEG was alleviated in the treatment group after treatment with statistical difference (P < 0.05). No adverse reaction occurred during medication.

CONCLUSIONX1 was safe and effective in treatment of SAE.

Objective To investigate the influence of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy on curative effect of primary hepatocellular carcinoma patients associated with hypersplenism.Methods Twenty three cases of primary hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hypersplenism were analyzed retrospectively and divided into hepatectomy combined with splenectomy group (n=10) and hepatectomy combined with ligation of splenic artery (n=13). Peripheral blood samples were collected 1 week before operation and 3 monthes after operation respectively. The levels of CD4, CD8, CD16, CD4/CD8, WBC and PLT in the blood were detected. Survival rate between the two groups was compared. Results There were not significant differences in the expressional levels of CD4, CD8, CD16, CD4/CD8,WBC and PLT before operation, bleeding quantity during the operation and rate of severe complications after operation in the two groups. The expressional levels of CD4, CD16, CD4/CD8, WBC and PLT of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy group were much higher in 3 months after operation than those in 1 week before operation and in hepatectomy combined with ligation of splenic artery group (P

Objective To investigatc thc short-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of tantalum trabecular metal (TM) components associated with TM augments for Paprosky type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ acetabular defects in revision hip arthroplasty.Methods From June 2014 to April 2016,seventeen patients with aseptic loosening underwent revision total hip arthroplasty for Paprosky type Ⅱ or type Ⅲ acetabular defects with TM revision acetabular cups and TM augments.The subjects consisted of 5 males and 12 females with mean age of 56.6 years (range 30-75).Acetabular bony defects were Paprosky type Ⅱ A in 4 hips,Ⅱ B in 3 hips,Ⅲ A in 8 and Ⅲ B in 2 hips.The whole hip revision was performed in 13 hips and acetabular reconstruction in 4 hips.Preand post-operative functional outcomes were accessed by the Harris Hip Score.The vertical and horizontal position of the rotation center from the intertear drop line were measured and analyzed.Complications were recorded during the follow-up.Radiographic examination was performed after operation immediately by X-ray.The recent X-ray was conducted to assess bone ingrowths at the cup-bone or augments-bone interface,radiolucent lines and implant migration.Results All of the patients were followed-up for an average of 23 months (range 11-33 months).There was no infection,dislocation or periprosthetic fracture complications at the last followed-up.The Harris Hip Score was improved from 45.8±3.4 pre-operatively to 79.2±7.5 post-operatively (t=-16.8,P=0.00).The mean vertical distance of the center of rotation was 32.1±4.3 mm preoperatively and 14.5±2.3 mm postoperatively (t=14.8,P=0.00).The mean horizontal distance of the center of rotation was 33.6±6.1 mm preoperatively and 27.8±3.2 mm postoperatively (t=3.5,P=0.00).More than 3 radiographic signs of osseointegration were observed in 11 hips.No progressive radiolucent lines or component migration was observed.All the TM components were well-fixed at last follow-up.Conclusion Using tantalum TM cups with TM augments in revision hip arthroplasty could be regarded as an effective management for Paprosky type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ acetabular defects.This technology can avoid using over-large cup,provide reliable primary stability,restore the center of rotation with almost normal hip biomechanics and improve the functional outcome.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the resistant mechanisms of Candida albicans to azoles at molecular level.METHODS NCCLS M-27 protocols were used to test the in vitro susceptibilities of 102 C.albicans strains isolated from the patients with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis(RVVC) against fluconazole(FLC) and itraconazole(ITC) to screen the FLC-and ITC-resistant C.albicans isolates;six pairs of primers,A1-A2,B1-B2,C1-C2,D1-D2,E1-E2 and F1-F2 were respectively to amplify gene CYP51 of 4 strains with FLC-and ITC-resistance.The PCR products were sequenced and analyzed to identify the mutation sites by compared with the sequence of gene CYP51 of referenced C.albicans strain in NCBI site of Internet.RESULTS The analysis of full length sequence of CYP51 from 4 FLC-and ITC-resistant strains showed that from total 32 mutation sites there were 4 significant site mutations,where the mutation of GAT to GAC at 116 caused the substitution of D by E(E266D in two strains);GCC to GGT at 117 caused the substitution of A by G(A117G in 1 strain);GAA to GAC at 266 caused the substitution of E by D(E266D in 2 strains);and GTT to ATT at 488 caused the substitution of I by V(V488I in 1 strain).The site mutations of 266 and 488 were tested in 1 strain of 4 strains.CONCLUSIONS The CYP51 total gene of 4 strains has been checked out.Of FLC and ITC-resistant C.albicans alignment in this time,find out 4 significant bp mutations.Causing its amino acide change,among them,A117G has not be interrelated report still now.The details of mechanism need to be further studied.

Objective To evaluate how functional endoscopic sinus surgery(FESS)modifies patients symptom profiles and the quality of life and analyze the influential factors.Methods During 2010 to 2012,90 cases were investigated to evaluate the quality of life of different age groups to use SNOT-20.Results The quality of life after the surgery of different age groups were significantly higher than it before the surgery(P<0.05).The juvenile group:first dimension(nasal congestion,70%),the second dimension (memory,30%),the third dimension(worried about the condition,30%)and the fourth dimension(social influence,40%).The young aged group:first dimension(nasal congestion,73.3%),the fourth dimension(social influence,43.3%),second dimension (quality of sleep,20.0%)and the third dimension(irritability,16.7%).The middle and old aged group:first dimension(nasal con-gestion,66.7%),the third dimension(trepidation,20%),the second dimension(quality of sleep,20.0%)and the fourth dimension (financial burden,40.0%).Preoperative QOL related factors:complications,age,gender,disease duration and urban-rural;Postop-erative QOL related factors:complications,disease duration,age,perioperative management,gender and urban-rural.Conclusion The quality of life of different ages after FESS is improved in different aspects.To increase the level of perioperative compliance can improve the quality of life.

Objective To improve recognition of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) in children. Methods Two children with PRES admitted to children's hospital were included. Clinical data were retrospectively studied and related literatures were reviewed. Results The primary diseases of the two patients are systemic lupus erythematosus and nephritic syndrome, respectively. They all developed an acute onset of headache, visual changes, consciousness disturbance, hypertension and seizures. Cranial MRI showed bilateral parietal, temporal and occipital cortical or subcortical lesions with hypointensity on Tl-weighted imaging and hyperintensity on T2-weighted imaging. Clinical symptoms resolved soon and radiographic recovery occurred within 14 to 21 days with prompt anti-hypertension treatment and supportive care. Among the mechanisms which might contribute to the development of PRES, acute elevated blood pressure seems to be the most important factors in these two cases. Prompt anti-hypertension treatment usually can reverse the PRES lesion. Conclusions It is important to improve cognition of PRES in children. Delayed treatment can cause permanent neurological impairment. Doctors should be alert to this syndrome. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are very important. (J Clin Pediatr,2010,28(2):168-170)
