Objective To explore the correlation difference between dynamic and routine electrocardiogram when used to diagnose asymptomatic myocardial ischemia.Methods Totally 92 coronary disease patients confirmed clinically from April 2014 to May 2016 were divided equally and randomly into an observation group and a control group.The patients in the control group underwent conventional ECG examination,and the ones in the observation group went through 24 h 12-lead dynamic ECG examination.The positive rates of asymptomatic myocardial ischemia were compared in the two groups,and the onset time and the patient state at that moment were analyzed in the observation group,Results The positive rates in the control group and observation group were 47.83％ and 84.78％ respectively,and there was significant difference between them (P＜0.05).The onset time was restrained within 6:00 and 12:00,when the patient was in the state of manual labor,brain work or excitement.Conclusion 24 h 12-lead dynamic ECG gains advantages in early and timely diagnosis of asymptomatic myocardial ischemia,and thus is worthy promoting clinically.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of hypotension in hemodialysis patients with end stage of diabetic nephropathy.Methods 106 patients of advanced diabetic nephropathy who received maintenance hemodialysis were selected in the present study.According to the patients'condition needs, chose different dialysis modes,dialyzers, dialysis blood flow and ultrafiltration rate, compared the frequency of occurrence of hypotension during treatment.Results By multivariate regression analysis,gender,dialysis mode,dialysis and blood flow had no correlation with hypotension during dialysis.The age, hemoglobin, serum albumin, cardiac function and individual ultrafiltration rate were correlated with the incidence of hypotension in patients with diabetic nephropathy.Individual-ized ultrafiltration rate was less than or equal to 10 mL · kg-1 · min-1 and individual ultrafiltration rate was up to 10 mL· kg-1 · min-1 ,the incidence rates of hypotension were 18.9% and 25.9%,the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =7.102,P<0.05).Conclusion Diabetic nephropathy patients during dialysis,ultrafiltration rate control individuals can effectively reduce the frequency of occurrence of hypotension during dialysis, hemodialysis patients may improve tolerability.

Objective To study the relationship between the enhancement of renal cortex and medulla during the conventional CT scans with and without contrast enhancement and the renal glornerular filtration rate (GFR). Methods Thirty five cases with unilateral posternal obstructive hydronephrosis According to GFR, the 70 kidneys were divided into 4 groups: normal, slightly impaired, moderately impaired and severely impaired. In the cortical phase of enhanced CT scan, the enhancing intensity of the renal cortex and medullar was measured and following measures were calculated: CTce - CTcp, CTmc -CTmp,ratio of enhancement of affected and unaffected renal cortex and medullar, and the ratio of those of each case: CTac/CTnc, CTam/CTum, CTac/CTam, CTnc/CTnm, (CTac/CTam) / (CTuc/CTum). The differences of these measures in different groups were analyzed with one-way ANOVA and their correlation with GFR was studied with Pearson test. The best indicator to reflect enhancement of renal cortex was selected from these measures, and all the kidneys were divided into 4 groups accordingly: strong, less strong, medium and weak. Then its consistency with GFR groups were calculated. Result (1) The differences of CTce - CTcp ( 154. 98 ± 28. 70 ), ( 122.67 ± 39. 32 ), ( 81.30 ± 32.94 ) and ( 57.60 ±23.49) HU respectively, CTac/CTuc 0. 97 ±0. 09, 0. 79 ±0. 18, 0. 64 ±0. 24 and 0. 51 ±0. 13 respectively,CTam/CTum 0. 98 ±0. 26, 0. 89 ±0. 18, 0. 86 ±0. 31 and 0. 75 ±0. 28 respectively, CTam/CTum 2. 76 ±0. 35,2. 35 ± 0. 79, 1. 83 ± 0. 68 and 1.73 ± 0. 28 respectively, CTac/CTam and ( CTac/CTam)/( CTuc/CTum) 1.00 ±0. 28,0. 89 ±0. 34, 0. 75 ±0. 17 and 0. 69 ±0. 14 respectively of different GFR groups were evident( P < 0. 05 ) . ( 2 ) Positive correlation was found between GFR and CTce-CTcp ( r = 0. 887, P <0. 01 ), CTac/CTuc ( r = 0. 872, P < 0. 01 ), CTam/CTum ( r = 0. 504, P < 0. 01 ), CTac/CTam ( r =0. 772, P < 0. 01 ), (CTac/CTam) / (CTuc/CTum) ( r = 0. 663, P < 0. 01 ). ( 3 ) Selecting CTac/CTam to reflect enhancement of renal cortex, the diseased kidneys can be divided into groups of strong ( CTac/CTam ≥2. 60); less strong (2. 20 ≤CTac/CTam <2. 60); medium ( 1.80 ≤CTac/CTam <2. 20); and weak ( CTac/CTam < 1. 80). The consistency with GFR grouping was 80. 0%. Conclusions There is significant correlation between renal cortex-related indicators and GFR, especially CTac/CTam, which can be used as the indicator of renal function in patients with unilateral or bilateral postrenal obstructive hydronephrosis. The conventional contrast enhanced CT scan can be taken as a semi-quantitative method of GFR measuring with relative low X-ray dosage compared with CT perfusion.

Objective To explore the clinical application of two different fixation methods for nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) in newborns. Methods One hundred and forty newborns who had NCPAP treatment were selected and divided into experimental group and control group with 70 cases in each group by random digits table method.The newborns in experimental group received self- made caps to fix the prong systems,while the newborns in control group received U shape towel. The incidence of nose, head of facial skin injury, frequency of detachment for nasal prongs and duration mechanical ventilation were compared between two groups. Results The frequency of detachment for nasal prongs per 24 h was (0.65±0.18) times in experimental group and (1.64±0.22) times in control group, and there was significant difference (t=28.68, P<0.01). The incidence of nose, head of facial skin injury were 8.6%(6/70), 2.9%(2/70) in experimental group and 27.1%(19/70), 14.3%(10/70) in control group,and there were significant differences ( χ2 =8.23, 5.83, P<0.01 or 0.05). There was no significant difference in duration mechanical ventilation between two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions Use of the self- made caps for NCPAP in newborns is associated with significant reduction in the incidence of nose, head of facial skin injury,and the frequency of detachment for nasal prongs.The fixation should be prompted in clinic.
