Objective To evaluate the factors associated with recurrence of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) after nucleoside analogs (NAs) withdrawal.Methods A literature search from PubMed,Wanfang data,CQVIP,CNKI,Duxiu and SinoMed was conducted to identify studies on the recurrence of CHB after NAs withdrawal.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3.Random-effects or fixed-effects model was performed based on the heterogeneity.Weighted mean difference (WMD) was used to assess the continuous data,and odds ratio (OR) was used to assess the dichotomous data.Publication bias was evaluated with Egger' s regression test using Stata SE 11.0.Results A total of 20 case-control studies were included in this analysis.The recurrence rates were 21.0％,30.4％,33.2％ in HBeAg-positive CHB patients,and 26.5％,34.1％,50.1％ in HBeAg-negative patients after NAs withdrawal for 3 months,6 months and 1 year,respectively.For patients treated with lamivudine,the recurrence rates of CHB were 21.0％,28.0％,34.3％ at 3-,6-and 12-month after NAs withdrawal.Meta analysis demonstrated that among HBeAg-positive CHB patients,the average age (WMD =7.36,95％ CI:5.72-9.00,Z =8.81,P ＜0.01) and baseline HBV DNA level (WMD =0.26,95％ CI:0.05-0.46,Z =2.44,P =0.01) were higher in recurrence group,while antiviral treatment duration was shorter in recurrence group (WMD =-3.12,95％ CI:-4.56--1.68,Z =4.26,P ＜ 0.01),and the rate of recurrence was higher in patients with liver cirrhosis (OR =2.59,95％ CI:1.33-5.04,Z =2.79,P ＜ 0.01).Among HBeAg negative patients,the average age of patients in recurrence group was higher than that in non-recurrence group (WMD =5.90,95％ CI:1.57-10.23,Z =2.67,P ＜ 0.01),and no difference was observed in other factors between recurrence and non-recurrence patients.Among patients treated with lamivudine,the average age (WMD =7.68,95％ CI:5.02-10.34,Z =5.66,P ＜0.01) and baseline HBV DNA level (WMD =0.26,95％ CI:0.05-0.46,Z =2.44,P =0.01) were higher,while antiviral treatment duration was shorter in recurrence group (WMD=-2.11,95％CI:-3.85--0.38,Z=2.39,P＜0.01),and the rate of recurrence was higher in patients with liver cirrhosis (OR =2.59,95％ CI:1.33-5.04,Z =2.79,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Among HBeAg-positive and lamivudine-treated patients,age,baseline HBV DNA level,antiviral treatment duration and liver cirrhosis are associated with the recurrence of CHB after NAs withdrawal; while for HBeAg-negative patients,age is the only risk factor.

This study aimed to study the criteria of two-way referral between tertiary-care hospital and communityhealth-care service center for patients with cerebralhemorrhage and a protocol of implementation to promote its treatment and rehabilitation.The criteria of two-way referral between tertiarycare hospital and community health-care service center for patients with cerebral hemorrhage after surgical operation were formulated on a trial basis with mutual consultation by the department of neurosurgery,Shenzhou hospital affiliated to Shenyang Medical College and Hunhewan Community Health-Care Service Center,Heping district,Shenyang. Totally,91 patients of cerebral hemorrhage admitted to the hospital during October 2007 to September 2010 were recruited for the study,46 in the intervention group with two-way referral and 45 in the control group by self-referral determined by their family members.All the patients of the two groups were followed-up for three years.During the follow-up in the intervention group,40 of 46 (95％) patients could comply with taking medication ordered by physicians,ability of daily living remarkably improved by Barthel index in 21 (50％),physical function recovered well in 33 (79％),34 (81％) could insist in self-monitoring and 32 (76％) could visit physicians for regular consultation,all these being significantly better than those in the control group (64％,31％,28％,25％ and 25％,respectively) (P ＜0.01 ).Medical and rehabilitative cost for patients with cerebral hemorrhage accounted for 575 RMB yuan per month in intervention group,as compared to 2246 RMB yuan for those in control group.Two-way referral for patients with cerebral hemorrhage can reduce their medical cost and promote their better rehabilitation.

Objective To study the effects of ? carotene on rat liver fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4). Methods ① After being treated with CCl 4 for 3 weeks to induce the experimental rat liver fibrosis, rats were treated with ? carotene 250 000 U/kg body weight by oral feeding twice a week. The normal and the CCl 4 control group were also set. ② The liver pathological and ultrastructual change were studied. The content of rat liver hydrooxylproline, the expression of ? 2 (Ⅰ) collagen RNA and transforming growth facter ? 1 (TGF ? 1) were studied at the same time. Results In the treatment group, the liver fibrosis scores were fewer significantly than those in the CCl 4 group ( P

With the rapid development in cataract operation,characteristics and types of intraocular lens have been improving and altering all along in over fifty years.The correct selection for intraocular lens is significant for cataract patient to get better vision after operation.Description of characteristics and selection of the intraocular lens are summarized.

The status of anesthesia and psychotropic substances use for cancer pain control was analyzed in 355 cancer patients in Huanggu District of Shenyang City.The results revealed that patients aged 60 and above accounted for 62.8％ of the total; the 5 leading diseases were lung cancer ( 132 cases,37.2％ ),colorectal cancer (34 cases,9.6％ ),liver cancer (33 cases,9.3％ ),stomach cancer ( 31cases,8.7％ ) and pancreatic cancer (20 cases,5.6％ ).There was no significant difference in constituent ratio of disease categories in the last 4 years ( x2 =18.75,P ＞ 0.05 ).The daily oral dose of morphine sulphate was 60 - 200 mg with an effective rate of 91.5％ (325/355). The side effects including constipation,nausea,vomiting and itching can be effectively reduced by prophylactic medication.
