Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2008;6(1):32-35
Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of Back-Shu acupoint in treating asthma. Methods: Sixty-one patients were randomly divided into a Back-Shu acupoint group, a acupuncture-moxibustion group and a acupuncture group. All the three groups were treated twice a week, 10 times made up a treatment course. The therapeutic effect was evaluated after three courses of treatment. Results and conclusion: The control and marked effective rate were significantly higher in the Back-Shu acupoint group and acupuncture-moxibustion groups than in the acupuncture group (P<0.05). They were slightly higher in the acupuncture-moxibustion group than in the Back-Shu acupoint group, but there was no statistically significant difference. The results indicated that the Back-Shu acupoints have a good therapeutic effect in treating asthma.

China Medical Equipment 2017;14(2):110-111,112
Objective:To provide more details and guide the management and usage as well as purchasing for medical equipment, so as to realize the optimization and utilization of the medical resources and impel Precision Medicine Initiative.Methods:The cost-effective analysis and the rate of return analysis of two large-scale precision equipments (MRI and Fundus camera usage) during January 2015 and June 2016 were performed. Besides, the equipment cost was divides into several more detailed projects in the research.Results: The rate of return of MRI in the first half year of 2016 was 8.5%, which was obviously higher than the one of 2015 which was 4.1%; the rate of return of Fundus camera usage in the first half year of 2016 was 25.9%, which was also obviously higher than the one of 2015 that was 15.0%. In the analysis, the depreciation of equipment was the main cost.Conclusion: It was critical and necessary to strengthen the standardized operation and routine maintenance in operation, in order to improve their safety usage rate.
4.Clinical efficacy of atorvastatin in patients with lacunar infarctions and influence on cerebrovascular reactivity
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2010;17(18):2462-2463
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of atorvastatin in patients with lacunar infarctions (LI) and influence on cerebrovascular reactivity(CVR). Methods 60 patients with LI were randomly divided into observation group and control group. The patients of control group were given aspirin treatment, patients of observation group were given atorvastatin combination with aspirin therapy. The breath-holding index(BHI) before and after treatment was calculated. After continuous treatment for 3 months the clinical efficacy was evaluated. Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 90. 0% ,it was significantly higher than that of the control group(73.3% ),compared with the control group the difference was significant( x2 = 10. 428 ,P < 0. 05). The bilateral BHI of observation group significantly increased, compared with per-treatment and control group the difference was significant ( t =9. 455,6. 135 ,all P < 0. 05 ) ,but the bilateral BHI of control group had no significant difference compared with pertreatment ( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion Atorvastatin could effectively improve CVR in patients with LI. Therefore, atorvastatin had great significance for the prevention of stroke.

Objective To study the effect of model nurse election on satisfaction degree with nursing. Methods A model nurse election group was set up to carry out objective assessment, recommendation from doctors, nurses and patients, and feedback. The results in the satisfaction of doctors, nurses and patients were compared between before and after the activity. Results The satisfaction rate of doctors , nurses and patients after implementation of model nurse election were all significantly higher than before the implementation (P<0.05). Conclusion model nurse election used in the nursing management can help to improve nursing management effectiveness, drive continuous improvement of nursing quality, build harmonious doctor-patient relationship, and ultimately enhance satisfaction of doctors, nurses and patients.

Objective To investigate the rehabilitative effect of simulated family intervention on hospitalized depression patients.Methods One hundred depression patients in hospital were evenly randomized into the experiment group and control group:Both groups were treated with traditional antidepressant therapy and beside,the experiment group were taken care of by family members by way of simulated family intervention and the control group by isolated nursing intervention.The two groups were compared in therapeutic effect by survey using HAMD before intervention and 3 months after that.Result After 3 months of treatment,the score by HAMD in the experiment group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The simulated family intervention by family members in hospital may be effective in improving the rehabilitation of depression patients and good for their resumption to the communities.

Objective To investigate the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation combined with motor relearning program on the recovery of upper limb motor function after stroke.Methods From September 2015 to June 2016,40 patients with first-ever stroke received rehabilitation therapy at the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled prospectively.Their course of disease was 1 to 6 months.They were divided into either a combined treatment group or a control group according to the odd and even numbers in hospital (n =20 in each group).The patients of both groups received traditional rehabilitation training and motor relearning program for upper lindb recovery,2 times a day,once for 30 min,5 days a week for 6 weeks.The combined treatment group was also given transcranial direct current stimulation,2 times a day,once for 20 min,5 days a week,while the control group was only treated with sham stimulation treatment.The patients were assessed before treatment and at 6 weeks after treatment.Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) scores and Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) were used to assess upper limb motor function.The modified Barthel index (MBI) was used to evaluate the activities of daily living.Results There was no significant difference in the observation indices before treatment between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Six weeks after treatment,the differences of the upper limb FMA score and ARAT score before treatment were superior to the control group,they were 13 ± 3,10 ± 3 and 10 ± 2,8 ± 2,respectively (t =3.503 and 3.244 respectively,all P < 0.01).There was no significant difference in the MBI score between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Transcranial direct current stimulation combined with motor relearning program may effectively improve the upper limb motor function in patients with stroke and promote the improvement of the activities of daily living.
