ObjectiveTo investigate sleep disorder of patients with depression and find out the regularity.Methods78 depression cases in the east-region of Shenyang were evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire and mental health symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90). The results were contrasted with normal control group.Results63 depression cases (80%) had sleep disorder (PSQI scores≥8) and were significantly higher than normal control group. The PSQI evaluation showed that sleep quality, enter-sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep disorder, hypnotige drugs, function of daytime and total scores of PSQI of the depression group were significantly higher than that of normal control group (P<0.05～0.01). The SCL-90 test showed that scores of somatic, obsessive, depressive, anxiety, phobia, paranoid and mental-illness, etc. and total quota of bad-sleep quality group were significantly higher than that of the fine-sleep quality group (P<0.05～0.01).ConclusionDepression patients have significantly descent in sleep quality, latter is often closely related to the mental psychotic expressiveness of somatic, obsession, depression, anxiety, phobia, etc.

Objective: This study aimed to observe the long-term effect of Pseudomonas aeruginosa preparation used in peritoneal injection of advanced colorectal cancer patients during surgery. Methods: A total of 83 colorectal cancer patients who received surgery between September 2006 and March 2008 were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups. Palliative resection and a 10 ml P. aeruginosa peritoneal injection were performed in 30 of 83 patients in the treatment group. Simple palliative resection was conducted in the other 53 patients, which comprised the control group. Both groups were then treated by regular chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Results:The follow-up visit was completed in 79 of 83 patients, with a high follow-up rate of 95.2%. No significant difference was found in the five-year overall survival time between the two groups (P=0.403). However, the five-year median survival time in the control group was only 13.9 ± 2.14 months, whereas that in the treatment group was 17.2 ± 2.12 months. Conclusion: Within a short period, peritoneal injection of P. aeruginosa during surgery could confer certain survival advantages for advanced colorectal cancer patients. However, the long-term effect of this therapy remains unknown.

Pharmacological method state is a method to explain the principle of Chinese herb according to its external phenomenon such as shape, color, texture, features, and so on. The natural attribute of Chinese herb include shape, color, texture, smell, harvesting time, medicinal parts, chemical components, and so on. Though both of them have different key points, the natural attribute of Chinese herb can also be used to explain its medicinal mechanism. Therefore, the correlation research between pharmacological method state and the natural attribute of Chinese herb has some significance.

Objective To discuss clinical application of descending genicular artery perforator flap.Methods According to the anatomic features of direction,branches and anastomosis of the descending genicular artery,the descending genicular genicular artery perforator flap at medial superior aspect of knee joint was designed to reconstruct the soft tissue defects at the anterior medial 1/3 of the calf and the anterior medial part and popliteal fossa of the knee,with the axis based on the anterior border of the Sartorius and with the pivot point on the site where the cutaneous branches from the superior medial genicular artery pierced out within the triangle concave surface bounded by the vastus medialis,the tendon of adductor magnus and the condylus medialis.Results All flaps survived well in five patients,with primary healing.After a follow-up of 1-12 months,all flaps turned out to be with good texture,near-normal color and good appearance.Conclusion With a constant anatomic location,excellent blood supply and easy surgical procedure,the descending genicular artery perforator flap is one of feasible ways for repair of soft tissue defects around the knee.

Objective To investigate the correlation between prostacyclin synthase (prostaglandin I2 synthase, PGIS) gene rs5602 single nucleotide polymorphism and ischemia stroke in Chinese Han population. Methods The patients with ischemia stroke and healthy controls in Chinese Han population were enroled. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI TOF MS) was used to detect the rs5602 polymorphism. Results A total of 297 patients with ischemic stroke (male 177 and female 120) and 291 healthy controls (male 165, female 126) over the same period were enroled. The frequencies of TT genotype (31. 1% vs. 43. 6% ; χ2 = 5. 773, P = 0. 016) and T alele (56. 8% vs. 65. 8% ; χ2 = 5. 793, P = 0. 016) in the male patients with ischemic stroke were significantly lower than those in the male healthy controls. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the rs5602 TT genotype was a protective factor for ischemic stroke in male (odds ratio 0. 260, 95% confidence interval 0. 118-0. 570; P = 0. 001). Conclusions PGIS gene rs5602 polymorphism is associated with ischemic stroke in male in Chinese Han population.
