Objective To evaluate the diagostic value of hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) and cystatin C(Cys-C)tests in diabetic nephropathy(DN)of early stage.Methods The turbidimetric immunoassay was adopted to determine serum hs-CRP,β2-MG and Cys-C concentrations in type 2 diabetic patients,including 100 cases with DN of early stage (DN group),50 cases without DN(NDN group)and 100 cases healthy controls(control group).Results Serum hs-CRP,β2-MG and Cys-C concentrations in DN group were significantly higher than that in control group and NDN group(P <0.05).Conclusion Hs-CRP,β2-MG and Cys C are sensitive indicators in the diagosis of DN.The combined determination of the three indicators im-proves the sensitivity of early DN diagnosis and is useful for monitoring the development of DN in early stage.

Objective To analyze the application effect of systematic rehabilitation intervention in postradiotherapy dysphagia of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods Totally 60 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and postradiotherapy dysphagia admitted in our hospital from June 1st,2013 to Feburary 28th,2016 were selected and divided into the treatment group and the control group according to random number table,with 30 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with conventional rehabilitation exercises,combined with routine care and conventional drug therapy,while those in the treatment group were treated with systematic rehabilitation intervention model,including rehabilitation exercises and swallowing apparatus. Improvement of swallowing function and satisfaction toward the nursing were compared between two groups.Results There were 14 effective cases and 16 ineffective cases in the control group. Two cases in the treatment group were cured. There were 23 effective cases and five ineffective cases in the treatment group. The total efficiency of the treatment group (83.33%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (46.67%) (χ2=2.159,P<0.05). The experimental results of drinking water and improvement of limitation of mouth opening in the treatment group were obviously better than that in the control group (Z=5.012,7.018;P<0.05). Satisfaction in the treatment group (86.67%) was obviously higher than that in the control group (43.33%) (χ2=6.321,P<0.05).Conclusions Systematic rehabilitation intervention in postradiotherapy dysphagia of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma can significantly improve patients' swallowing difficulties.
