Objective To discuss the ultrasonographic characteristics of schistosomal appendicitis lesions. Methods Among the patients with schistosomal hepatopathy who were discovered by Color Doppler ultrasound in Huzhou Central Hospital from January 2012 to December 2015,50 cases with clear history of schistosomiasis and treatment were chosen as a schistosom?al hepatopathy group,meanwhile,50 normal people,who came from non?endemic areas,without schistosomal hepatopathy and schistosomiasis history were chosen as a control group. The two groups were examined by ultrasound scan of the appendix ,and the data of the largest diameter of the appendix and the thickness of the appendix wall were collected,and the sonographic char?acteristics of their appendixes,such as whether the echo of the appendix wall was even or not,were observed. Results The minimum internal diameter of the appendix cavity and the thickness of the appendix wall of the schistosomal hepatopathy group were(2.090 ± 0.790)mm and(1.332 ± 0.313)mm ,respectively,the former was significantly narrower than that of the control group,while the latter was significantly thicker than that of the control group(t=2.647,-4.526,respectively,both P<0.05). The proportions of those with inhomogeneous echo,indistinctness structure,uneven thickening of the appendix wall,as well as having intestinal contents in the appendix cavity in the schistosomal hepatopathy group were higher than those in the control group(χ2=12.000,18.537,24.008,4.244,respectively,all P<0.05). Conclusions Schistosomal appendicitis lesions have obvious ultrasonographic characteristics under ultrasound. Ultrasound can play an important role in judging whether the appen?dix of schistosomiasis patients is involved and discovering the lesion of appendix early.

Objective To investigate the effect of patients′ health education needs analysis on health education . Methods One hundred and sixty-four type 2 diabetic patients who met the inclusion criteria and participated diabetes education management voluntarily into the control group and the observation group randomly with 82 cases in each group and the control group lost 2 patients and the observation group lost 3. The control group received traditional education. Based on the control group, the observation group also received patients′ health education needs analysis . The two groups were compared in terms of blood glucose level , diabetes knowledge scale score and self-care behavior. Results After 6 months′management, the patients in the observation group were better than the control group in terms of the blood glucose level, diabetes knowledge scale scores and self-care behavior(P<0.05). Conclusion Patients′health education needs analysis before education can enhance their diabetes knowledge and better self-care behavior , improve diabetic patients′control over blood glucose .

Objective To explore the effect of clinical nursing pathways on improving cardiac function and prognostic quality of life in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods A total of 88 patients with maintenance hemodialysis admitted to our hospital from August 2015 to May 2016 were selected as control group (n =44) and experimental group (n =44) according to the consultation number.The patients in the control group were treated with routine nursing model,and the experimental group was treated with clinical nursing pathway on the basis of control group.The changes of heart function,quality of life,and the incidence of complications before and after intervention were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with treatment before,LVESD and LVEDD were significantly decreased in both experimental group and control group,while LVEF and quality of life scores were significantly increased,and the above indexes of the experimental group were significantly better than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05);The incidence of complications in the experimental group was 11.36％,which was significantly lower than 36.36％ in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Clinical nursing pathways in maintenance hemodialysis patients can significantly improve cardiac function,reduce the incidence of complications,promote the recovery of patients,improve the quality of life.

Objective:To explore any effect of working memory training on executive functioning and ability in the activities of daily living after a stroke.Methods:Forty-six stroke survivors were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, each of 23. Both groups received conventional cognitive rehabilitation (including computer-assisted cognition training and virtual reality training using upper limb rehabilitation robots), while the experimental group also received working memory training. Before, as well as after 4 and 8 weeks of the treatment, both groups′ executive functioning was evaluated using the Trail Making test, the Frontal Assessment Battery and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test-64. Ability in the activities of daily living was quantified using the functional independence measures (FIMs).Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in any of the measurements before the training. After 4 weeks the average scores of the experimental group on all four instruments were significantly higher than the control group′s averages. After 8 weeks the average scores had improved significantly more. The treatment group performed significantly better than the control group throughout.Conclusions:Working memory training can improve executive functioning and the daily life of stroke survivors.

Objective:To explore the normal ranges of perfusion parameters between cerebral hemisphere, cerebellar hemisphere and brain anatomical subregions (56 pairs) in different gender and age groups with multiple post labeling delay time (Multi-PLD) arterial spin labeling (ASL) imaging.Methods:From November 2020 to December 2020, 42 healthy adult volunteers (Male 25, Female 17) were recruited to perform 7 PLD ASL imaging, including 21 young adults (15 males and 6 females, aged 23—35 years) and 21 seniors (10 males and 11 females, aged 36—74 years). The data was processed offline by Cereflow software to obtain arterial arrival time (ATT) and corrected cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV) perfusion parameters. SimpleITK standardization function was used to standardize the calculated perfusion image according to the anatomical automatic labeling (AAL) template. Therefore, CBF, ATT, CBV perfusion values of brain subregions were obtained. Paired samples t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, independent samples t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the differences of perfusion parameters in the cerebral hemisphere, the cerebellar hemisphere, brain subregions depending on side, gender and age. Pearson correlation analysis was used to compare the correlations of perfusion parameters with age. Results:CBF in 62.5% (35/56) subregions and CBV in 44.6% (25/56) subregions were higher in right side than those in left side. ATT in most brain anatomical subregions (16/56) were higher in left side. The CBF [(35.30±8.31) vs. (34.34±7.53) ml·100g -1·min -1, P=0.021], CBV [(0.47±0.11) vs. (0.45±0.09) ml/100g, P<0.001], ATT [(1.30±0.10) vs. (1.24±0.11) s, P<0.001] in left cerebellar hemisphere were higher than that of right side. The CBF (28/56) of cerebral hemisphere, cerebellar hemisphere and brain subregions was higher in females than that in males, while ATT in 83.9% (47/56) subregions was lower than that in males (all P<0.05). CBV in female subjects was higher only in 5 brain regions (superior occipital gyrus, middle occipital gyrus, inferior occipital gyrus, superior parietal gyrus and cerebelum_7b) (all P<0.05). In young subjects, CBF in 44.6% (25/56) subregions and CBV in 33.9% (19/56) subregions were higher than those in the senior group (all P<0.05). The ATT in most subregions in young group were lower than those in senior group, but the difference was statistically significant only in rectus gyrus ( P=0.026) and paracentral lobule ( P=0.006). The CBF ( r=-0.430, P=0.005) and CBV ( r=-0.327, P=0.035) of cerebral hemisphere were negatively correlated with age. The CBF (24/25, r range:-0.497 —-0.343, all P<0.05) and CBV (16/19, r range:-0.474 —-0.322, all P<0.05) in most subregions were negatively correlated with age, while ATT was positively correlated (gyrus rectus: r=0.311, P=0.045; paracentral lobule: r=0.392, P=0.010). Conclusions:Multi-PLD ASL imaging could be applied for quantitative analysis of brain perfusion. The perfusion parameters of anatomical subregions are different depending on side, gender, and age.
