OBJECTIVETo observe the effect on female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) treated with the pudendal nerve stimulation of electroacupuncture therapy at different frequencies.

METHODSSixty patients were divided into a group treated three times every week (group A) and a group treated twice every week (group B), 30 cases in each one. The pudendal nerve stimulation of electroacupuncture therapy was adopted at Disixue (four acupoints on sacral region), 60 min in each time in the two groups, treated three times a week or twice a week respectively. SUI severity and the score of life quality were observed before and after 12 treatments separately. The efficacy was evaluated in the two groups.

RESULTSAt the end of treatment, SUI severity was relieved and the score of life quality was improved in the two groups (all P<0.01). The results in group A were superior to group B [0 (0-4.3) vs 4 (0-5), P<0.01]. At the end of treatment, the total effective rate in group A was 90.0% (27/30) and was 76.7% (23/30) in group B; the efficacy in group A was better than that in group B (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe pudendal nerve stimulation of electroacupuncture therapy achieves the definite efficacy on female SUI and the results in the treatment of three times a week are superior to those in the treatment of twice a week.

OBJECTIVETo observe thee efficacy of different ways of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for treating elderly coronary heart disease (CHD) patients.

METHODSTotally 470 elderly CHD patients were classified to three age brackets (equal to or more than 85 years old, 60 to 74 years old, 75 to 84 years old). They were assigned to the transradial intervention (TRI) group (236 cases) and the transfemoral intervention (TFI) group (234 cases) according to different intervention pathways. Correlated indices and postoperative clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSA higher successful rate of surgery was obviously got in patients 85 years old or older than 85 than in those 60 to 74 years old and 75 to 84 years old (P <0. 05). The incidence of major cardiovascular events (MACE) was reduced at post-operative 12 and 24 months in patients 85 years old or older than 85 (P <0. 05). The case number for changing intervention pathway were increased in the TRI group with statistical difference (P <0. 05). Compared with the TFI group, the case number for changing intervention pathway was increased; the time for arteriopuncture, the time for catheterization, and the time for X-ray exposure were prolonged; the time for postoperative bedding were obviously shortened; the incidence of vascular complications at the puncture site were lowered. The incidence of postoperative 12-month MACE was lowered, all with statistical difference (all P <0. 05). The incidence of MACE within postoperative 24-month MACE decreased in patients 60 to 74 years old and 75 to 84 years old (P <0. 05). The incidence of MACE within postoperative 24 months increased in patients 85 years old or older than 85 of the TRI group with statistical difference (P <0. 05).

CONCLUSIONTRI can be preferably chosen for PC in treating elderly CHD patients.

Objective:To explore the correlation between lower gastrointestinal tract symptoms and diabetic retinopathy and lower extremity artery disease in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus.Methods:The clinical data of 128 patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus from August 2016 to March 2018 in Central Hospital of Shengli OilField were retrospectively analyzed. The general clinical data and laboratory indexes were recorded. The score was evaluated by lower gastrointestinal symptoms rating scale (LGSRS). Patients with the LGSRS score ≥6 scores were as positive group, and those with LGSRS score<6 scores were as negative group. Fundus photography and ultrasonic scanning of lower extremity artery disease were performed for each patient. The correlation between LGSRS score and diabetic retinopathy, lower extremity artery disease was analyzed by Logistic regression.Results:Positive group had 66 cases, and negative group had 62 cases. The age, duration of diabetic, LGSRS score and incidence of diabetic retinopathy in positive group were significantly higher than those in negative group: (64.24 ± 10.43) years vs. (59.57 ± 12.50) years, (14.67 ± 1.28) years vs. (10.98 ± 1.25) years, (8.65 ± 2.38) scores vs. (2.77 ± 1.49) scores and 98.48% (65/66) vs. 69.35% (43/62), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or<0.01). There were no statistical difference in gender, body mass index, glycated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol and incidence of diabetic retinopathy between 2 groups ( P>0.05). After adjusting for age, duration of diabetic, glycated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and total cholesterol, the LGSRS score showed positive correlation with diabetic lower extremity artery disease ( OR = 1.174, 95% CI 1.065 to 1.470, P = 0.001), but there was no correlation between LGSRS score and diabetic retinopathy ( P = 0.313). Conclusions:In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, lower gastrointestinal tract symptoms has positive correlation with diabetic lower extremity artery disease, and no correlation with diabetic retinopathy. It suggests that there may be a common pathological mechanism between lower gastrointestinal tract symptoms and diabetic lower extremity artery disease.
