Objective To explore the difference in pain threshold between related acupoints and the specificity of acupoints in cholecystitis patients.Method Actual measurement was made in 80cases, a normal group of 30 cases (volunteers without psychological and physiological diseases) and a patient group of 50 cases (volunteers with cholecystitis). The probe of an algometer was perpendicularly placed on the selected acupoint, the pressure point was pushed and pressing was stopped immediately after the subject felt pain. The pain thresholds displayed by the measured acupoints were recorded. The pain thresholds of the selected acupoints were compared between the normal and patient groups and thedifferences were analyzed to explore the specificity of acupoints.Result A comparison of the pain thresholds of the Back-Shu points of the Bladder Meridian of Foot-Taiyang between the patient and normal groups showed that there were no significant differences in the thresholds of the left Back-Shu points Geshu (BL17), Ganshu (BL18), Danshu (BL19), Pishu (BL20), Weishu (BL21) and Dachangshu (BL25) of the bladder meridian between the two groups (P>0.05) and there were significant differences in the thresholds of the right Back-Shu points Geshu, Ganshu, Danshu, Pishu, Weishu and Dachangshu of the bladder meridian between the two groups (P<0.01). The pain threshold was significantly lower in thepatient group than in the normal group. A comparison of the pain thresholds of the main points of the Liver Meridian of Foot-Jueyin, the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang and the stomach meridian between thepatient and normal groups showed that there were significant differences in the thresholds of the right points Liangmen (ST21), Riyue (GB24) and Qimen (LR14) of the liver, gallbladder and stomach meridians (P<0.01) and no significant difference in the threshold of the right point Taichong (LR3) between the two groups (P>0.05). The pain thresholdwas significantly lower in thepatient group than in the normal group. There were no significant differences in thethresholds of the left points Liangmen, Riyue, Qimen and Taichong of the Liver Meridian of Foot-Jueyin, the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang and the stomach meridian between the patient and normal groups (P>0.05).Conclusion The pain sensitivity of ipsilaterali related acupoints increase and the relative specificity of acupoints exist in cholecystitis patients.

Rat hepatic oval cell model was induced by hyperglycemia and streptozotocin in vivo. Expression of insulin and mRNA expression of pancreatic transcription factors(Nkx6.1, PDX-1) were carried out. It showed that under high glucose, liver tissues were positive for insulin staining, the expression of Nkx6.1 and Pdx-1mRNA was significantly enhanced, and insulin-1mRNA was found to be expressed. The result suggests that under high glucose, hepatic oval cells can differentiate into insulin-producing cells.

Objective To evaluate the effect of clinical pathway management on pediatric capillary bronchitis. Methods Infants with capillary bronchitis admitted to our hospital were selected. Several indices were compared between the infants with and without clinical pathway management including hospital stay, costs of hospitalization, satisfaction in parents of children, cure rate, readmission rate one week after discharge, hospital infection and variation in the process of clinical pathway manage-ment. Results A total of 204 eligible infants were divided into research group (n=96) and control group (n=108). There were no signiifcant differences in sex, age, respiratory rate, heart rate and temperature, and detection rate of respiratory syncytial virus in nasopharyngeal secretion and sputum culture (P>0.05). Compared with the infants in control group, the total drug costs, the an-tibiotics costs and the average length of stay were signiifcantly decreased in infants with clinical pathway management (P<0.05). There were no signiifcant differences in such indices as satisfaction in parents of children, cure rate, readmission rate one week after discharge and hospital infection rate between two groups (P>0.05). In research group, 49 infants (51.04%) completed the clinical pathway management. Positive variance was found in 43 infants (44.79%) and negative variance in 4 infants (4.17%). Two infants (2.08%) dropped out. Conclusions For capillary bronchitis in infants, clinical pathway management has an effect on controlling and reducing the medical expenses, and meanwhile improving the medical quality and satisfaction of patients.

Objectives To explore the influence of standardized treatment and technical flow improvement on the diagnosis and treatment of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) after prenatal diagnosis. Methods The clinical data of neonates diagnosed with CDH who were hospitalized in neonatal intensive care unit from January 2005 to August 2016 was analyzed retrospectively. Based on the start time of standardized treatment implementation, 93 cases of CDH hospitalized from January 2010 to August 2016 were divided into the intervention group while 15 cases of CDH hospitalized from January 2005 to December 2009 were divided into the control group. The survival rate and complications of clinical outcomes between two groups were compared. Results There was no significant difference in sex, gestational age, birth weight, Apgar score, and CDH position between two groups (P >0.05). The total survival rate was 81.7% in the intervention group and 53.3% in the control group, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The difference of mechanical ventilation mode and pneumothorax rate between two groups also had statistical difference (P >0.05). The median operation time in the control group was 4.5 h and the intervention group was 49.5 h. The postoperative survival rate was 61.5% in the control group and 90.5% in the intervention group, and the differences between two groups were significant (P >0.05). The first blood gas analysis of deaths cases in both groups showed that there were significant differences in pH and PCO2 values (P >0.05). Conclusions Optimization of the clinical management during perioperative period can improve the survival rate of CDH and reduce complications. However, the dead cases in the intervention group had more severe pulmonary hypoplasia.
