Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for synchronous colorectal liver metastasis (synCRLM).Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 3 172 patients with primary colorectal cancer (CRC) who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2010 to January 2016 were collected. There were 1 946 males and 1 226 females, aged (63±12)years, with a range from 21 to 97 years. Observation indicators: (1) general data analysis; (2) clinicopathological data analysis; (3) analysis of influencing factors for synCRLM. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD. Count data were represented as absolute numbers. The influencing factors for synCRLM were analyzed after excluding missing data of tumor differentiation degree, tumor diameter, pathological T stage and N stage. Univariate analysis was conducted by chi-square test or Logistic regression model. Multivariate analysis was conducted by Logistic regression model. Results:(1) General data analysis: among the 3 172 patients, cases with age ≤29 years, from 30 to 39 years, from 40 to 49 years, from 50 to 59 years, from 60 to 69 years, from 70 to 79 years, and ≥80 years were 15, 82, 342, 774, 965, 759 and 235, respectively. There were 2 972 patients in Qingdao, 172 cases in Yantai and 28 cases in Weihai. Of the 2 972 patients in Qingdao, there were 422 cases in Shinan District, 658 cases in Shibei District, 457 cases in Huangdao District, 144 cases in Laoshan District, 188 cases in Licang District, 205 cases in Chengyang District, 252 cases in Jimo District, 221 cases in Jiaozhou City, 255 cases in Pingdu City, 170 cases in Laixi City.

OBJECTIVETo verify the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) for female stress urinary incontinence (SU).

METHODSForty-two patients were randomly divided into an observation group(20 cases) and a control group (22 cases). EA at Zhongliao (BL 33) and Huiyang (BL 35) was used in the observation group. Sham acupuncture at non meridian points, one can beside Zhongliao (BL 33) and Huiyang (BL 35), was applied, and placebo EA was adopted in the control group. Treatment with needle retained for 30 min a time was given once every other day and three times a week for continuous six weeks in the two groups. Urinary and reproductive simple score (UDI),visual analogue scale (VAS) and the frequency of nocturnal enuresis were observed before treatment, at the second, forth and sixth week of treatment in the two groups, and the efficacy was compared.

RESULTSThe effective rates of the observation group were 80.0% (16/20), 95.0% (19/20) and 95.0% (19/20), which were better than 40.9% (9/22), 31.8% (7/22) and 27.3% (6/22) of the control group at the second, forth and sixth week of treatment. The differences were statistically significant between the two groups (all P < 0.05). After treatment in the observation group, the results of UDI, VAS and frequency of nocturnal enuresis were improved compared with those before treatment (all P < 0.05). Along with treatment, all indices were gradually improved, and the change at the sixth week was the most obvious in observation group. The results of the observation group were better than those of the control group at all times (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONEA achieves obvious effect for female SUI, and effectively improves the lower urinary trace symptoms, the degree of urinary incontinence and the frequency of nocturnal enuresis. The effect becomes increasingly better along with treatment within six weeks.

OBJECTIVETo observe the impact of electroacupuncture (EA) on the quality of life in the patients of female mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) and evaluate its clinical efficacy.

METHODSEA was adopted in 25 cases of MUI at Zhongliao (BL 33) and Huiyang (BL 35), needle retaining for 30 min each time. The treatment was given once every two days, three treatments a week, totally for 12 weeks of treatment. The incontinence quality of life questionnaire (I-QOL), the incontinence impact questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7), the urogenital distress inventory short form (UDI-SF) and the visual analogue scale (VAS) were adopted in the comparison before and after treatment. The efficacy was evaluated.

RESULTSThe curative rate was 52.0% (13/25) and the total effective rate was 96.0% (24/25) in 25 cases. In comparison before and after treatment, in I-QOL, the score of limiting behaviors was increased up to (30.32 ± 3.39) from (11.52 ± 2.45), the score of psychosocial impacts was up to (36.48 ± 2.90) from (13.52 ± 2.25) and the score of social isolation was up to (21.52 ± 1.61) from (9.84 ± 2.23). The score of IIQ-7 was decreased, down to (2.48 ± 1.36) from (11.96 ± 3.45), the score of UDI-SF was down to (2.92 ± 0.95) from (8.84 ± 2.58) and VAS score was down to (1.40 ± 0.91) from (6.96 ± 1.65). The differences were all significant statistically in comparison (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONEA improves effectively the quality of life in MUI patients and the clinical efficacy is apparent.
