Objective To investigate the effect of parecoxib on cardiac function after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in rats. Methods Twenty-four adult male SD rats, weighing 230-250 g, were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 8 each): group Ⅰ sham operation (group S), group Ⅱ AMI and group Ⅲ parecoxib (group P). Myocardial infarction was induced by ligation of left anterior descending branch (LAD) of coronary artery in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ . In group S, LAD and cervical sympathetic trunk were exposed but not ligated and transected.Group P received intrperitoneal parecoxib 8 mg/kg once a day for 3 days 24 h after ligation of LAD, while group AMI received normal saline instead. At 4th day after ligation LAD, the left ventricular systolic pressure ( LVSP),left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and ± dp/dtmax were measured and recorded. Blood samples were taken from common carotid artery to determine the plasma concentrations of TXA2 and PGI2 and PGI2/TXA2 was calculated. Then the animals were sacrificed and hearts removed. Myocardial infarct size of left venicle was calculated. Results Compared with group S, LVSP, ± dp/dtmax, plasma concentrations of PGI2 and PGI2/TXA2 were significantly decreased, while LVEDP and plasma concentrations of TXA2 increased in group AMI and P( P ＜0.05). Compared with group AMI, LVSP, ± dp/dtmax, plasma concentrations of PGI2 and PGI2/TXA2 were significantly decreased, while LVEDP and plasma concentrations of TXA2 increased in group P ( P ＜ 0.05). There was no significant difference in myocardial infarct size between group AMI and P (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion Parecoxib can improve cardiac function after AMI in rats and the mechanism is related to regulation of the balance of PGI2/TXA2.

Objective To evaluate different detection methods in the diagnosis of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), and find the most quick and accurate one for the identification of new bunyavirus infection. Methods Real-time PCR and ELISA-IgM were used to detect serum samples of 158 patients with acute phase of SFTS, which were collected from the special monitoring system of SFTS in Henan Province in 2014. IgM and IgG antibodies were detected by ELISA in 109 acute and convalescent paired serum specimens. The differences of the positive rates were compared between the three methods, and the influence of the collected interval time on the detection results was analyzed. Results For 158 acute phase serum samples of SFTS patients, the positive rate detected by real-time PCR (76.58%) was higher than that of ELISA-IgM (47.47%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=34.13, P < 0.05). For 109 cases with acute and convalescent paired serum samples, there was no significant difference in the positive rates between ELISA-IgG ( 75.23%) and real-time PCR (72.48%) detections (χ2=0.18, P>0.05). In both the acute phase and convalescent phase, the positive rate of IgM was higher than that of IgG, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=41.68 and 6.25, P<0.05). With the extension of collected interral time, the positive rates of IgM and IgG antibodies were both increased ( Z=6.42 and 10.08, P < 0.05). Conclusion Real-time PCR is the most sensitive method for the early diagnosis of the SFTS. ELISA-IgG is suitable for the detection of SFTS at recovery period. ELISA-IgM can be used as an assistant method to guide clinical diagnosis.

Objective To explore the effect of self-care agency on the self-perceived burden of patients with permanent bladder fistula. Methods From January 2016 to January 2017,the general data questionnaire,the Self-Perceived Burden Scale(SPBS),the Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale(ESCA)was used to investigate 388 cases of permanent bladder fistula in 2 hospitals in Lanzhou, Baiyin and Dingxi city, and the results were statistically analyzed. Results The total score of SPBS was (36.01 ± 1.34) points,which was in the middle level.The total score of ESCA was(51.05±10.23)points,which was in low level.The total score of SPBS was negatively correlated with the total score of ESCA and each dimension (r =-0.496--0.168, P<0.01 or 0.05). Stratified regression analysis showed that self-care skills, self-responsibility, self-concept and health knowledge level in self-care ability were important influencing factors (P<0.05). Conclusions Nursing staff can improve the self-care ability, reduce the self-perceived burden,and improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective: To study the effect of postoperative application of tranexamic acid on recovery and prognosis of unilateral total hip arthroplasty. Methods: One hundred and twenty patients who received unilateral total hip arthroplasty in 541st General Hospital of Dongzhen Town from August 2016 to August 2018 were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, with 60 cases in each group. The control group received intravenous injection of tranexamic acid 10 min before skin incision after anesthesia; on the basis of the control group, the observation group was given tranexamic acid intravenously again 3 h after operation, and the control group was no longer given repeated injection of tranexamic acid. The hemorrhage, hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit(HCT), hip joint Harris score and complications were compared between the two groups. Results: There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and transfusion between the two groups (P>0.05); the drainage volume, total blood loss, dominant blood loss and recessive blood loss in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(227.43 ± 20.14) ml vs. (280.91 ± 23.56) ml, (601.01 ± 42.84) ml vs. (667.04 ± 49.21) ml, (281.93 ± 18.50) ml vs. (322.06 ± 21.23) ml, (330.94 ± 21.73) ml vs. (370.03 ± 25.90) ml] (P<0.05). After operation 3 d, the levels of Hb and HCT in observation group were higher than those in control group [(117.07 ± 9.60) g/L vs. (102.19 ± 8.31) g/L, (35.05 ± 2.91)% vs. (32.01 ± 2.77)%] (P<0.05). After operation 2 weeks and 1 month after operation, the hip joint Harris score in observation group was higher than that in control group [(52.03 ± 4.02) scores vs. (48.37 ± 5.05) scores, (67.86 ± 5.29) scores vs. (61.23±5.10) scores] (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of intermuscular venous thrombosis, local hematoma and incision exudation between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions On the basis of preoperative application of tranexamic acid, combined postoperative application of tranexamic acid can significantly reduce the blood loss after unilateral total hip arthroplasty, and help the early recovery of joint function, without increasing complications and with high safety.

Objective:To explore the main hindering factors of nutritional care for family caregivers of patients with digestive system neoplasms after surgery, so as to provide reference for nursing workers to improve the quality of nutritional care for family caregivers and formulate personalized intervention programs.Methods:From January to April 2021, the phenomenological research method was used to select 14 family caregivers of patients with digestive system neoplasms after surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University for semi-structured interviews, and Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to analyze and collate the data.Results:The obstacles to nutritional care for family caregivers of patients with digestive system neoplasms after surgery extracted 4 themes and 9 sub-themes.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of social support and self-efficacy in rehabilitation exercise in the relationship between psychological resilience and kinesiophobia in hip fracture patients.Methods:Totally 284 hip fracture patients treated at the Department of Trauma and Orthopedics, Binzhou Medical University Hospital from May 2022 to April 2023 were selected by convenience sampling. Data were collected using the general information questionnaire, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), the Self-Efficacy Rehabilitation Outcome Scale (SER), and the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK). Process 4.1 was used for chain mediation effect analysis.Results:The scores for the 284 hip fracture patients were as follows: CD-RISC (58.72±7.77), SSRS (29.70±5.11), SER (91.23±8.41), and TSK (38.07±3.65). Psychological resilience, social support, self-efficacy in rehabilitation exercise, and kinesiophobia were all significantly correlated pairwise (all P<0.01). Social support and self-efficacy in rehabilitation exercise had a chain mediation effect between psychological resilience and kinesiophobia, with mediation effect values of -0.020 and -0.079, accounting for 17.52% and 67.70% of the total effect, respectively. Conclusions:Psychological resilience directly influences the level of kinesiophobia in hip fracture patients and has an indirect effect through the chain mediation of social support and self-efficacy in rehabilitation exercise.

Objective To compare short-term clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction between robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty(TKA)and conventional TKA.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on data of 93 patients who underwent primary unilateral TKA for knee osteoarthritis from June 2022 to April 2023.Among them,46 patients underwent Mako robot-assisted TKA(robot group)and 47 patients underwent traditional manual TKA(traditional group).There was no statistical difference in general data between the two groups(P＞0.05).Follow-up data were collected to compare the differences in surgical indicators,postoperative pain,range of motion(ROM),Hospital for Special Surgery(HSS)score,and Forgotten Joint Score(FJS)between the two groups.Results The operation time of the robotic group was longer than that of the traditional group[(105.8±26.7)min vs.(77.0±14.9)min,P＜0.001].There were no significant differences in total blood loss,hip-knee-ankle(HKA)angle deviation value and deviation rate(HKA angle＞3°)between the two groups at 3 days after surgery(P＞0.05).The robotic group had lower Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)scores for pain than the traditional group at 3 days,2 weeks,and 6 months after surgery(P＜0.001,P＜0.001,P=0.021),and had better knee joint ROM at 3 days,2 weeks,and 3 months after surgery(P＜0.001,P=0.011,P＜0.001).The HSS score(P=0.001)and FJS score(P＜0.001)of the robotic group were better than those of the traditional group at 6 months after surgery.Conclusion Compared with conventional TKA,robot assisted TKA has milder early pain,better mobility,and higher overall postoperative satisfaction.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of impaired liver and renal function in hospitalized patients with gout.Methods:A total of 494 hospitalized patients with confirmed gout were selected and divided into four groups according to liver and renal function, control(Con), impaired liver function (ILF), impaired renal function (IRF), and both function impaired (ILRF) group. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors related with impaired liver and renal function.Results:Compared to Con group, ILF group were younger with shorter gout duration, higher body mass index, waist circumference, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), serum uric acid, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol, triglycerides, C reactive protein, higher prevalence of dyslipidemia, obesity, fatty liver, and monosodium urate crystal (MSU) deposition (all P<0.05). IRF group were older and with higher serum uric acid, serum creatinine, C reactive protein, and hypertension, MSU deposition prevalence, with lower prevalence of fatty liver (all P<0.05). Compared to ILF group, IRF group were older, with longer gout duration, lower level of body mass index, waist circumference, HOMA-IR, LDL-C, total cholesterol, triglycerides, lower prevalence of obesity, fatty liver, and higher prevalence of hypertension and type 2 diabetes (all P<0.05). The univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age( OR=0.941, 95% CI 0.906-0.977, P<0.001), serum uric acid ( OR=1.002, 95% CI 1.000-1.005, P=0.043), HOMA-IR ( OR=1.147, 95% CI 1.024-1.285, P=0.018), and MSU deposition ( OR=1.959, 95% CI 1.154-3.326, P=0.013) were the independent risk factors of impaired liver function, while the independent risk factors of impaired renal function were age ( OR=1.104, 95% CI 1.048-1.162, P<0.001), serum uric acid ( OR=1.007, 95% CI 1.004-1.010, P<0.001), and MSU deposition ( OR=2.393, 95% CI 1.191-4.805, P=0.014). Conclusions:Serum uric acid and MSU deposition are the common independent risk factors for impaired liver and renal function in patients with gout. Younger patients with insulin resistance are susceptible to impaired liver function, older patients with hypertension and diabetes are susceptible to impaired renal function.
