Objective To investigate the clinical value of enhanced recoverv after surgery (ERAS) in radical resection of primary liver cancer.Methods In this study 68 patients were randomly assigned into the ERAS group (n =35),and control group (n =33).Results Comparing with control group,there was significant differences in ERAS group with less volume of intraoperative intravenous fluid (t =2.812,P <0.05),lower visual analogue scale (VAS) scores (t =2.023,P < 0.05),the shorter time to flatus (t =2.354,P < 0.05),shorter postoperative hospital stay (t =2.056,P < 0.05),and higher satisfaction degree of patients (t =2.227,P < 0.05),while there was no significant differences between the two groups in postoperative complications (x2 =0.032,P > 0.05).Conclusion ERAS was safe and effective for patients undergoing radical resection of primary liver cancer.

OBJECTIVE:
To understand the quality of life and related factors among family members of tuberculosis patients and provide a reference for the improvement of their quality of life.
METHODS:
A total of 222 family members of tuberculosis patients at 4 tuberculosis hospitals in Changsha and 327 healthy controls were surveyed with structured questionnaire, the short version of the WHO quality of life scale (WHOQOL-BREF).
RESULTS:
The mean score of the family members of tuberculosis patients in the psychological domain, physical domain and environmental domains was lower than that of the control group (P<0.01). Multiple linear regression showed that gender, age, monthly income, educational level, patient condition and knowledge of tuberculosis prevention and treatment were the factors affecting their quality of life.
CONCLUSION
The quality of life of the family members of tuberculosis patients is lower than that of the control group.
