ObjectiveTo survey the incidence of depression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and explore the related factors.MethodsOne hundred and fifty-nine patients with RA were investigated.All of them were assessed by depression scale and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale.A mono-variate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were carried out to determine the factors that best related to the occurrence of depression in RA.ResultsThe overall incidence rate was 39.6％.The regression analysis showed that factors related to the occurrence of depression in RA were HAQ-DI (OR=3.276,95％CI 1.315-7.814,P=0.003),the number of tender joints (OR=2.252,95％CI 1.117-3.362,P=0.029),low-income families (OR=1.629,95％CI 1.215-2.437,P=0.031 ) and serum CRP level (OR=1.528,95％CI 1.112-2.294,P=0.040).ConclusionDepression is common in patients with RA.Patients who havehigh HAQ-DI,CRP and from low-income families with more tender joints tend to develop depression.

Objective By analyzing 2 560 echinococcosis cases through telemedicine,to explore a new mode for preventing,diagnosing,and treating of echinococcosis.Method From January 2009 to December 2013 in our hospital through remote medical care and consulting we analyzed cases and conducted statistics on consultation's person time,location difference,spectrum of disease and upward referral rate as well as the cost of hospitalization.Result (1) The amount of consultation rose from 182 cases in 2009 to 873 cases in 2013.(2) The proportion of consultation from northern Xinjiang is about 83％-91％,obviously higher than that from south Xinjiang and eastern Xinjiang,which fits those areas mainly with the economical character of the husbandry.(3) Most consultation cases are echinococcosis (99.42％) followed by echinococcosis (0.24％),pelvic cystic echinococcosis (0.19％),cerebral echinococcosis (0.12％),and cardiac echinococcosis (0.03％).(4) Upward referral rate is nearly 7.97％ and about 92.03％ patients were treated in local community hospitals saving medical care budget by RMB 14.78 million.Conclusions Use and establishment of the three level network system for preventing,diagnosing,and treating the echinococcosis by telemedicine effectively enhances primary hospital's ability in the care of these patients and alleviates patients economical burden.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy of intravenous drip of alprostadil combined with acupuncture in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcer and its effects on inflammatory factors levels and wound microvascular density. METHODS:A total of 72 patients with diabetic foot ulcer in our hospital during May 2014 to Sept. 2015 were divided into observation group and con-trol group according to random number table,with 36 cases in each group. Control group was given Alprostadil injection 10μg add-ed into 250 mL 0.9% Sodium chloride injection intravenously,qd,on the basis of routine treatment as insulin. Observation group was additionally given acupuncture therapy (Sanyinjiao,Zusanli,Fenglong,Yanglingquan,Yinlingquan and other acupuncture points),qd,on the basis of control group. Treatment courses of 2 groups lasted for 3 weeks. Clinical efficacy,wound healing time,fasting blood glucose,urine microalbumin,inflammatory factors,wound microvascular density as well as the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The total response rate of observation group(91.67%)was significantly higher than that of control group(72.22%),and wound healing time was significantly shorter than control group,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in fasting blood glucose,urine microalbumin and inflamma-tory factors between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,above indexes of 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and urine microalbumin and inflammatory factors of the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statisti-cal significance (P<0.05). 14,21 d after treatment,wound microvessel density of observation group was significantly higher those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Intrave-nous drip of Alprostadil combined with acupuncture can boost angiogenesis through mitigating inflammatory reactions,thus shorten the time of wound healing and enhance therapeutic efficacy.

Objective To study the changes of the bone density and metabolic makers in patients with lupus nephritis (LN) after long time prednisone treatment.Methods All patients were women.The healthy controls (group A, n =20),the patients with normal renal function (group B, n =25) were studied before and after 2 and 4 month prednisone treatment.Dual energy X ray absorptiometry was used to measure bone mineral density (BMD) in the lumbar spine at L2～L4,femoral neck,Ward′s triangle,great trochanter (GT) and ultradis (ULT).Simultaneously,the serum calcium,phosphate,alkaline phosphate enzyme,PTH M,BGP,24 hour urine calcium,creatinine and other biochemical indices were examined in all of them.Results ① There were no significant differences in BMD between both groups ( P

Objectiye To investigate the value of liver transplantation for the treatment of end-stage hepatic alveolar echinococcosis(HAE).Methods The clinical data of 8 patients with end-stage HAE who received liver transplantation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from December 2000 to August 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.The operation time,anhepatic phase,infusion of suspension of red blood cells and postoperative complications were observed.Results The median operation time,anhepatic phase and infusion of suspension of red blood cells were 635 minutes(range,490-760 minutes),66 minutes(range,44-240 minutes)and 20 U(range,4-40 U).Liver transplantation was successfully carried out on 7 patients except for 1 patient who received emergent liver transplantation died of severe hepatic encephalopathy,renal failure and coagulation disorder on postoperative day 1.The median follow-up time was 6 months(range,3-29 months).One patient died of septicopyemia in postoperative month 3,1 died of incurable infection of bile duct in postoperative month 5,and 1 died of acute rejection in postoperative month 6.One patient was complicated with stricture of the bile duct anastomosis,and was cured by choledochojejunostomy.The size of the metastatic lesion in the left lung of 1 patient was reduced.One patient who underwent liver autotransplantation had no signs of residual liver disease with good liver function.Conclusion End-stage HAE is an indication for liver transplantation.A minimum dose of immunosuppressive agent and systemic administration of anti-HAE drugs are necessary to prevent the recurrence of HAE and ensure a long-term survival.Liver autotransplantation is the optimal method for the treatment of end-stage HAE,because no immunosuppressive agent is needed after operation.

Objective To investigate the standardized treatment of 33 children with thalassemia and their family financial burden registered in Bao'an district, Shenzhen city, and to provide basic information for formulating health policy for the government. Methods In 2009, preliminary investigations on 39 registered families with thalassemia children were conducted by telephone, and a household survey was made to collect treatment and economic status by questionnaire on 33 children. Results Among 33 cases of thalassemia children, 21 cases(63.7%) were severe anemia, 5 cases( 15.1%) in need of care or special care, and 25 cases(75.8%) were difficult or unable to maintain standardized treatment. The average family monthly income and expenditure was (4060 ± 2002) and (4926 ± 2991) yuan, respectively. The average monthly treatment costs were (2665 ± 1872) yuan, and the average debt amounted to (64 600 ± 53 940) yuan. Fifteen families[60.0%(15/25)] would reduce the times of blood transfusions or iron transpirations when they encountered revenue deficiency. Conclusions The heavy economic burdens on families with children thalassemia result in inadequate or interrupted treatment on sick children and affect their survival and quality of life, which should be taken more attention and social care.

Background Some drugs with inhibitory effect on the proliferation of lens epithelial cells have a limiting application in clinic because of their adverse response.To screen the effective and less side-effect drug for supressing LECs growth is very inportant for the prevention and treatment of after cataract.Objective This study was to explore the effects of docetaxel on LECs growth and compare its role with epirubicin hydrochloride,pirarubicin hydrochloTide and rahitrexed.Methotis Immortalized human LECs line (SRA01/04) were cultured and passaged.Different concentrations of docetaxel,epirubicin hydrochloride,pirarubicin hydrochloride and rahitrexed were added into the medium respectively for 24.48 and 72 hours.The proliferation of LECs was detect by M1Yr.Flow cytometry analysis Was used to analyze the influence of different concentrations of docetaxel on cellular cycle at 48 hours after addition of docetaxel,and Annexin V-FITC/PI marking method was used to assesse the apoptosis of LECs under the action of docetaxel.Expression of bcl-2 protein in LECs Was evaluated by Westeru blot. Result The growth rate of LECs Wag 100%in 8-519 pmol/L doeetaxel groups with the normal cell shape.Majority of abnormal cells and low growth rate were found in 66 nmoVL docetaxel group at 48 and 72 hours.The IC50 of docetaxel was lowest in 48 and 72 hours in docetaxel group in comparison to epirubicin hydrochloride and pirarubicin hydrochloride. However,no evident inhibition on LECs growth in 23.22-523.56 μmol/L of raltitrexed.At 48 hours,the percentage of LECs in G2/M phase increased as the asccnte of concentration of docetaxel,showing a significant difference among 4 groups(F=2633.05,P＜0.01).The percentage of early apoptotic cells increased to 22.4%(χ2=20.00,P＜0.01) and 27.9%(χ2=42.68,P＜0.01)from normal control 3.1% at 48 hours after LECs exposed to 8.3 nmol/L and 266 nmol/L docetaxe.The expression of bcl-2 protein in LECs was obviously weakened after addition of docetaxel,especially 8.3 nmol/L docetaxel group. Conclusion Docetaxel,epirubicin hydrochloride and pirarubicin hydrochloride can inhibit the proliferation of human LECs in vitro.But there is no supression on LECs growth inraltitrexed.Docetaxel is proved to have a strongly arrested effect on the proliferation of LECs in comparison with epirubicin hydrochloride and pirarubicin hydrochloride and play its role at concentration-and time-dependent manner.
