Objective To explore the changes of plasma catecholamines(CA)[including epinephrine(E) and norepinephrine(NE)] and atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in children with varying degrees of left ventricular ejection function(LVEF) in chronic heart failure(CHF),and establish natriuretic hormone factors as one of the diagnostic criteria of CHF.Methods Thirty-five patients with CHF and 35 children in good health were enrolled,and the concentration of plasma NE,E,ANP and the LVEF were determined.Results 1.The levels of plasma NE,E and ANP in 35 patients with CHF before treatment were significantly higher than those in control group(Pa

Luminol dependent chemilumi-nescence (CL) method was used to observe effect of nifedipine on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) oxygen metabolism in coronary heart disease (CHD). Studied subjects including 24 cases of coronary heart disease non using nifedipine, 26 cases of coronary heart disease using nifedipine group (10.mg tid on 3~7 days), 30 cases of normal drug-free subjects.The results showed that: 1. PMN-CL in using nifedipine CHD group was sigrlifficantly lower, its PMN- CL backgroud, peak value andphargocyte index was signifficantly lower than that in non using nifedipine CHD group. 2. PMN-CL peak value and phargocyte index in using nifedipine CHD group had no signifficantly differences compared with normal group. 3. Parameters of PMN- CL in non using nifedipine CHD group were signifficantly higher than that in normal group.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application and effect of plastic surgery in emergency treatment of facial soft tissue injuries,and to explore the better plastic surgery method for facial soft tissue injuries in order to regain the patient facial morphology and function maximally.Methods The clinical data of 798 patients with facial soft tissue injuries from June 2009 to June 2011 were analyzed retrospectively.And plastic surgical techniques were applied to the early treatment of facial soft tissue injuries in this group cases,according to the size of defect and the degree of deformity of the patient,different plastic surgery treatment was chosen,such as skin flap or skin graft to repair wound surfaces.In this process,one must follow sterile noninvasive principle strictly with emphasis on the technique of plastic surgery such as entire debridement,wound healing application of skin flap and so on.Results 790 cases of facial soft tissue injuries were healed by first intention without significant complications,while 8 cases of them had mild scars.During 6 to 12 months of follow-up,neither scar,nor infections and necrosis of the wound region occurred,and the morphology and function of patients' face recovered well without the second operation.Conclusions Using plastic surgery techniques in the emergency treatment of facial soft tissue injuries as soon as possible can avoid the disfigurement and the function disturbance,and promote the facial morphology and function regeneration rapidly and effectively.

Objective To investigate the clinical value and the expression of OX40/OX40L from lymphocytes of patients with Graves' disease (GD) before and after 131I therapy.Methods The expression of OX40/OX40L on T,B lymphocytes and the percentage of lymphocyte subsets were analyzed using immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry in 32 patients with GD before and after 131I therapy.Twenty-five healthy subjects were considered as the control group.The data between GD patients and controls were compared with two-sample t test.The correlation between the expression of OX40/OX40L and the function of thyroid (FT3,FT4 and TRAb level) was performed with linear correlation analysis.Results Compared with the healthy subjects,the percentage of CD4+ T cells and ratio of CD4+/CD8+ were decreased ((34.36 ±6.73)％ vs (45.60-±5.72)％,t=2.634; 1.24±0.26 vs 1.84±0.37,t=2.125,both P＜0.05).Whereas the percentage of CD19+ B cells in patients with GD were significantly higher than that in healthy subjects ((21.42 ±3.92)％ vs (15.35 ± 3.15)％,t =2.653,P ＜0.05).The expression of OX40 increased in CD4+ T lymphocytes ((12.92 ± 2.26) ％) and OX40L expression was up-regulated in CD19+ B lymphocytes ((15.33 ± 3.75)％) of patients with GD,compared with the healthy subjects ((4.19 ±1.45) ％ and (8.64 ± 1.73) ％,respectively,t =2.112 and 2.467,both P ＜ 0.05).The expression of OX40 in CD4+ T lymphocytes ((7.65 ± 1.64) ％) and OX40L in CD19+ B lymphocytes ((11.50 ±2.72)％) were increased after 131I therapy(t =2.795,2.393,both P ＜0.05).The thyroid functions of 32 GD patients were improved.The levels of FT3,FT4 and TRAb decreased significantly after 131I treatment (from 20.79 ±6.05 to 4.53 ± 2.54,from 49.65 ± 10.12 to 13.69 ± 4.35,and from 24.78 ± 8.46 to 11.74 ±6.19,respectively; t =2.219,2.441 and 2.293,all P＜0.05).The levels of FT3 and FT4 were positively correlated with the percentage of OX40 expression in CD4+ T lymphocytes (r =0.65 and 0.73,both P ＜ 0.05).TRAb was positively correlated with CD19+ OX40L + B lymphocytes (r =0.76,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions OX40/OX40L may play an important role in the activation of lymphocytes,the production of antibodies,and participate in the pathogenesis and progression of GD.131I therapy not only damages most of the thyroid follicular epithelial cells by its β ray,but also facilitates GD improvement by regulating T and B lymphocyte functions.

LA s tructure change and systolic function impairment have a relationship with LV dia stolic dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the effect of nursing with solution focused approach in advanced schistosomiasis pa?tients. Methods Fifty three patients with advanced schistosomiasis in the Liujiahu Hospital for Schistosomiasis Control of Yiyang City were randomized selected and separated into an intervention group and a control group. The patients of the interven?tion group received the conventional nursing plus solution focused approach,while the patients of the control group received on?ly the conventional nursing. The effectiveness of nursing and treatment was evaluated in the two groups comparatively. Results The knowledge of self?care skills,medical compliance behaviors and services satisfaction degree in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group(c2=3.78,2.87,4.09 respectively,all P<0.05). The occurrence rate of upper gastroin?testinal bleeding in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group(c2=4.894,P<0.05). The aver?age hospitalization duration of the intervention group was shorter than that of the control group(t=4.17,P<0.05). Conclu?sions The solution focused approach is a feasible and effective method in course of nursing of advanced schistosomiasis pa?tients. It enhances the confidence of the patients and the trustiness of the patients to the health care providers. The complications and the hospitalization duration of the patients are reduced.
