Objective To evaluate the effects of a health education project on prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods From January to June 2011,an investigation was conducted using combined unified questionnaire in 9 counties on target population,and 3 townships were chosen in each project county.Health educational activities were carried out in grade 5 classes in the central primary school.In the meantime,3 villages were chosen in each selected township where the health educational activities in the community were carried out.Before and after the health educational activities,questionnaire surveys on knowledge of iodine deficiency disorders were conducted in each project county.Thirty students in one class of grade 5 in the central primary school were selected,and 15 women of childbearing age near the central primary school were selected too.The health education content included but not limited to:popular science films about the knowledge on endemic disease prevention and public-interest ads were broadcasted by radio,television,newspapers and other media in the project counties,aiming at spreading knowledge on prevention and treatment of endemic diseases.In each of the project township government and village committee locations,posters,banner pieces and slogan suspensions about knowledge on endemic disease prevention were posted or put up.In the project rural hospitals,a special bulletin boards was set up,and in the village clinics (rooms),posters were put up,to carry out a training program for women of childbearing age on endemic disease prevention.In primary schools,students in grades 4 to 6 were given a class about knowledge on prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disorders,aiming at their transferring the learned knowledge to family members.Results A total of 2678 persons were investigated before and after the health education.After health education,the rate of knowledge(the correct answer rate) on iodine deficiency disorders increased from 69.04％ (1920/2781) to 94.08％ (2622/2787,x2 =580.63,P ＜ 0.05) among primary school students,and 74.76％(924/1236) to 92.60％(1139/1230,x2 =143.59,P ＜ 0.05) among women of childbearing age.Conclusions The rate of knowledge awareness in the students and the women of childbearing is increased significantly after the health educational activities.Systematic and targeted health education activities are effective measures in prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders.

Objective To discuss the correlation between tyre bursting and traffic accidents on highways. Methods A retrospective statistical analysis was carried out on traffic accidents resulted from tyre bursting on the Guangzhou-Shenzhen highway from 1998 to 2000. Results During three years, there occurred 2 484 cases of traffic accidents on the Guangzhou-Shenzhen highway, of which 848 cases resulted from tyre bursting, accounting for 34.14% (848/2 484). During a day, incidence from 10:00 to 16:00 was 55.54% (471/848), which was higher than that in any other time, and the highest incidence was at 14:00, accounting for 9.67% (82/848). During a year, incidence from April to September was 56.84% (482/848), higher than that in any other months. Considering the tyre factor, accidents resulted from burst of single right posterior tyre were 398 cases, occupying 46.93% (398/848) of the total, which was more than those resulted from burst of any other tyres. The second dangerous burst position was on the left posterior tyre, from which accidents reached 295 cases occupying 34.79% ((295/848)) of the total. Of all, 848 cases of tyre bursting accidents resulted in 12 deaths and 200 injuries, which accounted for 22.55% of the total death and wound (212/940). There were 58 cases of craniocerebral trauma, 32 chest trauma, seven abdominal injuries, 25 spinal cord injuries, four pelvic injuries, 52 branches injuries, 127 soft tissue injuries all through the body and 106 combined injuries. Conclusions Tyre bursting is a vital factor for traffic accidents on highways of South China. In order to effectively reduce traffic accidents on the highways, we must prevent overspeed driving, strengthen the regular check of the tyres and normalize corresponding management.

Objective Determining the respective incidence, risk factors and prognosis of hyperuricemia post normothermic cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods Clinical data was collected from April 2002 to October 2004. 232 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Patients were classified into three groups: nonhyperuricemia group, hyperuricemia group, and acute goutynephropathy group. Uricemia levels 24 hours post cardiac surgery, the respective incidence, risk factors, and prognosis among three groups were analyzed. Results Seventy patients (30.1%) had hyperuricemia, and twenty-two patients (9.5%) had acute goutynephropathy during their ICU stay. The mortality was 0.7% for no hyperuricemia group, 1.4% for hyperuricemia group, and 13.6% for acute goutynephropathy group (P

Objective To observe the transformation features of children with complete atrioventricular block(CAVB), and to improve the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.Methods Seventeen children with primary diagnosis of CAVB were reviewed by retrospective and follow-up study and the clinical characteristics, treatment schemes and prognosis were evaluated.Results Four cases of congenital CAVB lived normally without obvious symptoms in the tracing period from 6 months to 9 years;1 case had the onset of Adams-Stokes syndrome induced by diarrhea;3 cases of the CAVB caused by virus myocarditis turned into sinus rhythm after comprehensive therapy;2 cases persistently presented with the CAVB Complicated with enlarged heart;1 case gave up treatment after deterioration, and one case died.Three cases of temporary CAVB after the open heart operation turned to sinus rhythm in transitory time, while other two cases presented with permanent CAVB and treated with epicardium pacemaker,among whom one had the pacemaker replaced for one time in the 8-year follow-up,and the follow-up of other cases were intermitted.Conclusions The congenital CAVB in the study group with normal QRS interphase and no obvious symptom might not require treatment but follow-up is needed. While infants with heart malformation and wide QRS wave could not endure the low ventricular rhythm are in high risk. Virus myocarditis induced CAVB children tend to present the Adams-Stokes syndrome, and require effective treatments. Partial cases of the CAVB caused by open heart operation may turn to normal sinus rhythm in 2-4 weeks after surgery. cases has persistent CAVB for over 4 weeks, or Adams-Stokes syndrome onset after the surgery demand epicardium pacemaker treatment.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical efficacy on constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C) treated with acupuncture for regulating the mind and strengthening the spleen and the impacts on the quality of life in the patients.

METHODSSixty patients of IBS-C were randomized into two groups. In the acupuncture group (30 cases), acupuncture was applied to Tianshu (ST 25), Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37), Taichong (LR 3), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Yintang (GV 29) and Baihui (GV 20), once a day, 5 treatments a week and 4 weeks treatment as one session. In the western medication group (30 cases), lactulose oral solution was prescribed, 15 mL each time, three times a day, 4 weeks treatment as one session. The symptom grade scale and the quality of life scale (IBS-QOL) were adopted to observe the changes in clinical symptoms and quality of life before treatment, after treatment and 2-month follow-up after treatment in the patients of the two groups separately.

RESULTS(1) Clinical symptom score: the difference in the symptom score at each time point was significant statistically in intra-group comparison (P < 0.01). In 1 week, 4 weeks of treatment and 2 months after treatment, the clinical symptom scores in the acupuncture group were lower than those in the western medication group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). (2) IBS-QOL score after treatment was improved as compared with that before treatment in the two groups (P < 0.01). The improvement of IBS-QOL at 2 months after treatment in the acupuncture group was apparently superior to the western medication group (P < 0.05). (3) The total effective rate was 90.0% (27/30) in the acupuncture group and was 83.3% (25/30) in the western medication group. The overall efficacy in the acupuncture group was better than that in the western medication group (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture for regulating the mind and strengthening the spleen significantly relieves the clinical symptoms of IBS-C and improves QOL of patients. The total efficacy is superior to lactulose oral solution and presents a certain of long-term efficacy.
