Objective · To explore family medical intervention model of senile dementia with behavioral and psychological symptoms. Methods · Four streets of Changning District in Shanghai were randomly selected and subjects were enrolled according to the inclusion criteria, who were randomly divided into the intervention group (n=71) and control group (n=70). The intervention group received door-to-door service from psychiatric doctors, given drug treatment and psychological intervention. Subjects were evaluated by several scales, including Behavioral Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease Rating Scale (BEHAVE-AD), Mini-Mental State of Examination (MMSE), Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL), Quality of Life-Alzheimer's Disease (QOL-AD), and Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOLI-74), at baseline and by the end of 6 months and 12 months. Results · ① There was no significant difference in the total scores and all factor scores of BEHAVE-AD between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). Repeated measures analysis of variance revealed a significant main effect of time (P<0.001). The between-group effect was significant in the total scores of BEHAVE-AD and the factor scores of affective disorder, anxiety and terror (P<0.001). The interactive effect of time×group was significant in the total scores of BEHAVE-AD and the factor scores of delusion and affective disorder (P<0.05). ② Intergroup comparison of the BEHAVE-AD scores indicated that by the end of 6 months, factor scores of hallucination, circadian rhythm disorder, affective disorder, anxiety and terror of the intervention group were remarkably better than those of the control group and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01). By the end of 12 months, total scores of BEHAVE-AD, and factor scores of delusion, conduct disorder, affective disorder, anxiety and terror of the intervention group were remarkably better than those of the control group and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01). ③ There was no significant difference in the scores of MMSE, ADL, QOL-AD and GQOLI-74 between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). Repeated measures analysis of variance revealed a significant main effect of time (P<0.001). The between-group effect was significant in the scores of MMSE and QOL-AD (P<0.001). The interactive effect of time×group was significant in the scores of MMSE, ADL, QOL-AD, and GQOLI-74 (P<0.05). ④ Inter-group comparison of MMSE, ADL, QOL-AD, and GQOLI-74 scores indicated that by the end of 6 months, scores of MMSE of the intervention group were remarkably better than those of the control group and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). By the end of 12 months, scores of MMSE, ADL, QOL-AD, and GQOLI-74 of the intervention group were remarkably better than those of the control group and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion · The family medical intervention model of door-to-door services from psychiatrists integrating multidisciplinary team is effective to attenuate the mental and behavioral symptoms of senile dementia patients, and can improve the quality of life of patients and caregivers.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between preoperative blood platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and clinico-pathological features, as well as the effect of PLR on the prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients after surgical resec-tion. Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed for 255 cases with histologically confirmed NSCLC that underwent curative re-section from January 2004 to December 2007. All patients were classified into two groups based on the median value of PLR. The rela-tionship between PLR and clinicopathological features was studied. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess the prognostic effect of preoperative PLR. Results:The median value of preoperative PLR was 130 (range:45.45 to 272.66). Based on the cut-off value of 130, all patients were divided into two groups:low PLR (≤130, n=127) and high PLR (>130, n=128). PLR was corre-lated with tumor site, T stage, and clinical stage. Five-year survival rates of low and high PLR patients were 49.6%and 33.6%, respec-tively, which indicated a statistically significant difference (χ2=12.577, P<0.001) between the two groups. Univariate analysis showed that smoking status, histological differentiation, clinical stage, T stage, N stage, postoperative adjuvant therapy and PLR were associat-ed with survival (P<0.05 for all). Multivariate analysis identified N stage, postoperative adjuvant therapy, and PLR as independent prog-nostic factors of all the patients. In addition, stratified analysis showed that the five-year survival rate of the low PLR group was higher than that of the high PLR group with or without lymph node metastasis, and the differences were statistically significant (P=0.020 and 0.037). Conclusion:An elevated blood preoperative PLR indicates poor prognosis in NSCLC patients. Preoperative PLR is an indepen-dent prognostic factor of NSCLC after curative resection.

Objective To find out the relationship between the weight and whole body averaged SAR. and the relationship between the weight and the EM energy absorption in rat model exposed to 3 GHz microwave irradiation.Methods Based on 3D rat NMR images,a rat EM model consisting of 45 tissues was established, then by changing the size of model cell,16 models of which the sizes varied from 9 cm to 24 cm, and the weights from 16 g tO 334 g correspondingly were established too.Using FDTD method,the induced electric fields in these rat models were calculated,and then SAR and EM energy absorption have been obtained accordingly.Results The relationship between the weight and the whole body averaged SAR of rat model exposed to 3 GHz microwave irradiation can be divided into three sections,and each of them can be fitted into one line.In small rat section, SAR changed sharply;in middle rat section,SAR changed moderately;in large rat section,SAR changed litflely.The relationship between the weight and the EM energy absorption of rat model were fitted into one quadratic polynomial curve.The EM energy absorption was almost identical when the model is small,with the increasing of the weight,the EM energy absorption also increases,but the increasing ratio of the energy is less than that of the weight.Conclusions Larger rat absorbs more EM energy,but gets less SAR.Exposed to the same irradiation,the dose differences of larger rat is much less than that of smaller rat because of the changes in body weight,so the larger rat is to be recommended.
