Purpose To evaluate the left ventricular regional diastolic function in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients without regional wall motion abnormality by real-time three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (RT3D-STI) to investigate the value of RT3D-STI in the diagnosis of early CHD. Materials and Methods 140 CHD patients with 420 coronary artery main branches were enrolled and divided into 4 groups according to the results of coronary angiography (CAG): normal group (101 coronary artery branches without stenosis), mild stenosis group (112 coronary artery branches with stenosis<50%), moderate stenosis group (95 coronary artery branches with stenosis 50%-75%) and sever stenosis group (112 coronary artery branches with stenosis>75%). Three dimensional full volume images were collected through the chest, and the corresponding strain imaging diastolic index (SI-DI) of each direction was calculated, their value for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease was analyzed. Results The longitudinal, area and radial SI-DI of mild coronary artery stenosis group were lower than those of normal group (P<0.05);the longitudinal, area, radial and circumferential SI-DI of moderate coronary artery stenosis group were lower than normal group (P<0.05) and the area, longitudinal and circumferential SI-DI were lower than those of the mild stenosis group (P<0.05);the longitudinal, area, radial and circumferential SI-DI were all lower than those of normal and mild stenosis group (P<0.05), and the area, longitudinal and radial SI-DI were all lower than the moderate stenosis group (P<0.05). ROC curve showed that the sensitivity of longitudinal SI-DI (84.0%) was highest, while the specificity of area SI-DI (78.9%) was the highest. Conclusion RT3D-STI has important significance for early detection and diagnosis of CHD, regional diastolic function decrease of the coronary artery supply area occurs earlier than systolic function reduction, and diastolic function is more sensitive for myocardial ischemia, as a result, SI-DI is able to reflect the stenosis degree of coronary artery in a certain extent.

Objective Through active intervention of nursing care to improve the cognitive rate of hy-pertension, rate of blood pressure control and treatment compliance for hypertensive patients to reach the aim of alleviation of prognosis and reduction of disability and mortality. Methods Free physical examinations were carried out in population groups of above 30 years old in a certain community in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and family health files were set up. Totally 108 patients were screened and standardized management was applied in them,besides their conditions before and after the application of the management were investi-gated and analyzed by self-designed "prevention and treatment of hypertension as a chronic disease" and "in-vestigation questionnaire of KAP of patients with hypertension". Results The cognitive rate and rate of con-trol of high blood pressure were more higher after intervention than that before. Conclusions Through a planned health education instruction, popularizing prevention and treatment knowledge of primary hypertension to residents, we can increase the cognitive rate and rate of control of high blood pressure for patients with hyper-tension.

General practitioners from community health service institutions in Shijingshan,Mentougou,Haidian,Chaoyang,Fengtai and Dongcheng Districts of Beijing were selected to take the examination of chronic wounds management.Questionnaire survey was also performed on the status of community chronic wounds management,medical service motivation,influencing factors and their demand for training.Among 204 general practitioners,55 (27.0％) had mastered basic knowledge,98 (48.0％) passed the examination and 51 (25.0％) failed.The results showed that 179 (87.7％) had changing dressing service,36.8％ offered out-patient consulting service,17.6％ performed surgical debridement,only 10 (4.9％) provided home chronic wounds care service and 2 (0.9％) of them carried out long-term follow-up.According to the motivation survey,all the practitioners expressed the willingness to help the patients and win their trust.Most of the practitioners claimed no supporting from their institutions(91.7％) and chronic wounds management was excluded from daily routine.Furthermore,heavy work load(82.8％) and lack of professional knowledge(80.9％)were also considered to be main obstructive factors.The survey showed that the majority of physicians required classroom teaching (90.1％),case analysis (86.8％),operating video (92.6％) and other teaching forms.More low level doctors(97.1％)had the desire to pursue further specialist training than higher level physicians (56.7％).The results of our investigation indicate that general practitioners in community heath service institutions have strong learning motivation for chronic wounds management and systematic training of knowledge and practical skills in this field should be provided.

Objective To investigate the correlation between brain injury and premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)and to analyze the risk factors of brain injury in premature infants with BPD based on MRI changes.Methods A total of 1 13 premature infants diagnosed with BPD were studied as case group from January 2010 to December 2014 at the neonatal ward of Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University.One hundred and sixty-two premature infants without BPD were selected as control group.There were no significant differences in gestational age and birth weight between the two groups.All cases were per-formed MRI examination in hospital.The occurrence of brain injuries(white matter injury and intracranial hemorrhage)were compared based on MRI changes between the two groups,and the risk factors of brain in-jury in case group were analyzed.Results The case group and control group were performed MRI on (33.73 ±16.00)d,(24.40 ±12.29)d after birth respectively.The ratio of brain injury,intracranial hemor-rhage,cerebral white matter damage and severe brain injury of case group was higher than those of the control group(48.7% vs.32.7%,3 1.9% vs.21.6%,31.9% vs.21.6%,16.8% vs.8.6%,respectively).The differences were significant in the ratio of brain injury and severe brain injury (P =0.008,P =0.040,respec-tively).Logistic regression analysis showed that postnatal infection was a risk factor for brain injury of the case group(OR =2.21 ,95%CI 1.04 ~4.72,P ﹤0.05).Conclusion More brain injury(including the white matter injury and intracranial hemorrhage)and severe brain injury(including grade III ~IV intraventricular hemorrhage and periventricular leukomalacia)are detected in premature infants with BPD.Postnatal infection is a risk factor of brain injury for premature infants with BPD.
