To develop a medication reminder based on Android platform, which can be used to set up personalized reminders quickly and record the patient' s medication time-stamp and related information. In addition, the effect of using the reminder on medication compliance was studied. 14 subjects participated in the evaluation of medica-tion compliance. The differences of dosage and medication rate between the group using and without using reminder were investigated. The dosage and medication rate were got by the pill counting. The Wilcoxon matched -pairs signed rank test showed that the dosage and the medication rate of the group using reminder were higher than that without using reminder significantly(Z= -2. 93, P =0. 003 ). The results demonstrated that the use of the re-minder can improve the medication dose and rate significantly,indicate that the reminder might be a new technical support for clinical research on medication compliance, and also might reduce the workload for medical staff and patients.

Objective To analyze the changing process and development trend of deaths (mortality)in patients with viral hepatitis after the use of the Internet-based National Notifiable Infectious Disease Reporting System.Methods Descriptive statistical and moving average methods were employed to analyze the infectious disease reports released by the Chinese government during 1992-2013,and the changing process and development trend of deaths (mortality)in patients with viral hepatitis in China over the past 10 years were investigated.Re-sults The annual deaths (mortality)in patients with viral hepatitis showed a decreasing trend.The deaths (mortality)from hepatitis B showed a slight declining trend,accounting for a great proportion (over 70%)of the deaths (mortality)from viral hepatitis;the deaths (mortality)from hepatitis C had shown a slight downward trend since 2007;the deaths (mortality)from hepatitis A and unclassified hepati-tis decreased to different extents;the deaths (mortality)from hepatitis E remained at a relatively low level.Conclusion The treatment of viral hepatitis has been gradually improved in China and the public awareness of viral hepatitis keeps increasing.However,much attention still needs to be given to the prevention and treatment of viral hepatitis,especially hepatitis B and C,by the government.

AIM: To study the effect of garlicin on protecting nonalcoholic fat liver in rats induced by high fat diet and explore the pathogenesis involved. METHODS: According to the dosage of garlicin and diet, fifty SD rats were randomly divided into five equal groups: normal control group, model control group and garlicin (10, 20, 30 mg/kg) groups. Apart from the rats in normal control group, the rats were all fed with high fat and high cholesterol diet. After 12 weeks, the levels of serum endotoxin (ETX), total cholesterols (TC), triglyceride (TG), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), transaminase and free fatty acids (FFA) were detected. The levels of MDA, SOD, glutathione hormone (GSH) in hepatic tissue were also detected. Then the features of live pathology were observed. RESULTS: The levels of ETX, TC and TG in garlicin groups were significantly lower than those in model control group (P

Objective To investigate the influence of different timing of surgery on patients with poor-grade intracranial aneurysm. Methods The clinical data of 86 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (Hunt-Hess gradeⅣ toⅤ)were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into an ultra-early treatment group (the operative time within 24 h after onset;n=40),an early treatment group, (24 to 72 h after onset;n=27),and middle and late treatment group (>72 h after onset;n=19)according to the different timing of surgery. The prognosis of patients at 6 months after procedure was evaluated with the modified Rankin Scale (mRS)scores. The differences of the rate of good prognosis (mRS 0 to 2)and mortality in patients of the 3 groups were compared. Results (1 )The ratios of good prognosis in the ultra-early treatment group,early treatment group,and middle and late treatment group were 55. 0%(n=22),33. 3%(n=9),and 21. 1%(n=4),respectively. There were significant differences (P<0. 05). The mortality rate of the ultra-early treatment group (7. 5%)was lower than that of the early treatment group (25. 9%) or middle and late treatment group (42. 1%). There were significant differences (P<0. 05). (2)There were significant differences in the rate of good prognosis in different timing of surgery in patients with gradeⅣ(P<0. 05);there was no significant difference in the rate of good prognosis in patients with grade Ⅴ(P>0. 05). The mortality ratios in patients of the 3 groups were 2/18,4/11,and 6/11,respectively. There were significant differences (P<0. 05). Conclusion Ultra-early operation may benefit part of the patients with poor-grade aneurysm,particularly in patients with gradeⅣ. As for the patients with grade Ⅴ, ultra-early operation may help to reduce short-term mortality rate,however,the rate of vegetative state is high.
