Objective To investigate the effect of different frequencies of pudendal electrical nerve stimulation on female stress urinary incontinence.Methods 60 SUI female patients from Shanghai Research Institute of Acupuncture and Meridian affiliated Yue Yang Hospital were enrolled in a three-times-per-week treatment group (30 paients) and a twice-per-week treatment group (30 patients).Both groups were treated by pudendal nerve electrical stimulation for twelve times.The change of therapeutic effect,symptoms index were observed in both groups before and after the treatment.Results ① Comparison of clinical efficacy:The therapeutic rate of three-times-per-week treatment group was 63.3％ (19/30),the total effective rate was 90.0％ (27/30); the therapeutic rate of twice-per-week treatment group was 36.7％ (11/30),the total effective rate was 76.7％ (23/30).The therapeutic rate showed significant differences between the two groups (x2=4.267,P＜ 0.05); The total effective rate showed no differences between the two groups (x2 =l.920,P＞0.05).② Comparison of clinical symptom score and life quality score:the post-treatment clinical symptom scores of the both groups improved significantly compared with the pre-treatment (tthee-times-prt-week=7.972,ttwice-per-week=9.520,both P＜0.01).Clinical symptom score of three-times-per-week treatment group improved better than twice-per-week treatment group (P＜0.01).Conclusion Three-times-per-week of pudendal nerve electrical stimulation has a better effect on treating female SUI patients.

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.

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid that is abundant in eukaryotic plasma membranes,has crucial biological functions.Under cell apoptosis, cells can not generate enough ATP for energy and the concentration of cytoplasmic Ca 2 +increases, resulting in PS eversion.Apoptosis and the clearance of apoptotic cells are essential processes in animal development and homeostasis.For apoptotic cells to be cleared, they must display aneat me signal, most likely PS exposure, which prompts phagocytes to engulf the cells.PS is exposed by the action of scramblase on the cell's surface in biological processes such as apoptosis and platelet activation.Once exposed to the cell surface, PS acts as an eat me signal on dead cells, and creates a scaffold for blood-clotting factors on activated platelets.The molecular identities of the flippase and scramblase that work at plasma membranes have long eluded researchers.Indeed, their identity as well as the mechanism of the PS exposure to the cell surface has only recently been revealed.We describe how PS is exposed in activated platelets and in apoptotic cells, and discuss the clearance of apoptotic cells.

Hepatitis B is a serious hazard to human health.This paper describes the current clinical use of several nucleoside antiviral drugs combination,and introduces the candidate drugs which are able to effectively inhibit the hepatitis B virus replication in vivo and in vitro in two years,which provides reference for the research and development of new anti-HBV drugs.

Objective By collecting rheumatoid arthritis (RA) periodontal parameters,analyzing the general information and clinical indicators to understand the relationship between RA and periodontitis.Methods From December 2014 to May 2016,132 cases of RA,50 cases of the periodontitis group were enrolled.Their periodontal parameters,general data and clinical indicators were analyzed and the measurement data were compared with t test.Counting data was compared by Chi square or Fisher's exact test for statistical analysis.Results The prevalence rate of periodontal disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis was high (73％).When the RA complicated with periodontitis group and RA without periodontitis group were compared,the C-reactive protein (CRP) [(43±33) mg/L,(30±27) mg/L,t=2.213,P＜0.05],erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) [(50±30) mm/1 h,(38±25) mm/1 h,t=2.263,P＜0.05],rheumatoid factor (RF) [(319±368) U/ml,(174±228) U/ml,t=2.783,P＜0.05],anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) [(511 ±700) AU/ml,(262±429)AU/ml,t=2.535,P＜0.05],the positive rate of anti-CCP [80 (83％),17 (47％),x2=17.522,P＜0.001],health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) (2.5±0.8),(2.2±0.8),t=2.011,P＜0.05) of the RA complicated periodontitis group was statistically significantly different,but disease activity score (DAS)28 (5.5±0.7,5.3±0.7,t=1.970,P＞0.05) was not statistically significantly different.The anti-CCP positive group and anti-CCP negative group were compared in the number of patients with missing teeth [22 (23％),15 (43％),x2=5.19,P＜0.05],missing teeth number (3.5±1.5,2.5±1.4,t=2.004,P＞0.05),probingdepth (PD) (5.3±1.4) mm,(5.0±1.4) mm,t=1.094,P＞0.05),clinicalattachmentLevel (CAL) (5.2±1.4) mm,(4.9±1.5) mm,t=0.946,P＞0.05),bleedingon-probing (BOP) [17 (18％),7 (20％),x2=0.106,P＞0.05) was not statistically significant.Periodontitis with RA group and periodontitis group were compared with the number of patients with missing teeth [21(42％),5(10％),x2=4.11,P＜0.05],number of missing teeth (1.10±0.29,1.20±0.40,t=0.638,P＞0.05),PD [(4.3±1.7) mm,(3.2±1.4) mm,t=4.902,P＜0.05],CAL [(3.9±2.0) mm,(3.4±1.7) mm,t=2.18,P＜0.05],BOP [18(36％),9(18％),x2=13.306,P＜0.05] and CRP [(30±26) mg/L,(20±16) mg/L,t=3.820,P＜0.05],ESR [(45±21) mm/1 h,(32±18) mm/1 h,t=3.047,P＜0.05],was statistically significantly different.Conclusion The incidence of periodontitis in patients with RA is high;periodontitis may have a certain promoting effect on RA,and RA may also have some promoting effects on periodontitis.

Objective To assess the changes of left ventricular function after off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) using Tei index. Methods Fourty-six patients of coronary artery disease, who had accepted OPCAB, were enrolled. Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), E/A ratio at mitrial orifice(E/A), E deceleration time(EDT), isovolumic relaxation time(IVRT), ratio of systolic wave to diastolic wave of pulmonary vein flow(S/D) and Tei index were measured by transthoracic echocardiography before, immediate, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after OPCAB. Results Tei index decreased gradually as time went on after OPCAB and the differences were significant between different times(P
