Objective:To explore the relationship among the quality of life,anxiety and depression in parents of cerebral palsy children.Methods: 60 parents of children with cerebral palsy and 60 normal controls were evaluated with the Generic Quality of Lifrene Inventory(GQOLI),Zung self—rating anxiety scale(SAS) and Zung self—rating depression scale(SDS).Results: The scores of patients of children with cerebral palsy were significanly lower than those of the normal control group with regard to the quality of life and subfactors such as physical function,mental function, social function and material life(P

Objective:To learn the pavements' experiences during the process of diagnosis,treatment,recongnication and provide guidance for the medical stuff with psychology support to help the family of children with cerebral palsy.Methods:100 couples parents were interviewed,the data collected were analysed,listed systematically,then proposed subject.Results:The parents whose children with cerebral pasly suffer large psychology conflict and economic pressure,when they go through the first state full of shocking,suffering and denying,they have to accept the truth unwillingly.And they felt pessimistical exceedingly for the future.The support system helping them pass through the psychology crisis relied on the inwardness of parents,their families and the others facing the same situations.Conclusion:The parents of children with cerebral palsy need deeply humanistic care and emotional support.And it is beneficial to implement psychological intervention targetly for the family with celebral pasly to help them pass the hardly period by easing the psychological burden of the parents and reducing the children's mental grief.

Objective: To explore the effect of cold pillow compress on Preventing alopecia caused by chemotherapy and afford some advice to nursing staff in their daily works for the patients treated with chemotherapy.Methods: Forty inpatients with tumor receiving chemotherapy were divided into two groups in random,twenty patients in each group.In observing group,cold pillow was compressed on the head and neck of patients twenty minutes before chemotherapy and lasted till chemotherapy was over.In control group on old pillow compress was used during chemotherapy.Sum of ranks were calculated for statistics analysis.Results: In observing group,of twenty patients,12 ones without alopecia,6 ones I degree alopecia,2 ones Ⅱdegree alopecia and no Ⅲdegree alopecia.However,in control group,all of twenty patients had alopecia in different degree,that is,none without alopecia,4 ones I degree alopcia,6 onesⅡdegree alopecia and 10,Ⅲ degree alopecia.There was significant difference between the two groups in statistics(P

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) expression in laryngeal carcinoma and its clinical significance. METHOD: Fifty-one patients with laryngeal carcinoma were collected, and all patients were confirmed by pathological diagnosis results. The expression of MyD88 protein was detected by immunohistochemical method in laryngeal cancer and its adjacent tissues to investigate the correlation among MyD88 expression, clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients. RESULT: The positive expression rate of MyD88 in laryngeal cancer tissues was 68.6%, significantly higher than that in normal tissues adjacent to carcinoma of which positive expression rate was 11.8%; MyD88 positive rate had nothing to do with laryngeal cancer patients age, sex, differentiation and tumour location (all P > 0.05), but correlated with clinical stage (P < 0.01) and lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). In addition, the study also found that the expression of MyD88 quantity was inversely proportional with the five-year survival rate. The survival rate of patients with higher expression of MyD88 was significantly lower than that of patients with lower expression (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION MyD88 may be an important participant in the pathogenesis of laryngeal carcinoma, MyD88 targeted therapy may improve the prognosis of patients with laryngeal cancer.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of acupoint selection by heavenly stems on eosinophils(EOS) in guinea pigs with asthma.Methods Forty-eight guinea pigs were randomized into four groups: group A(timely electroacupuncture at the period of the day from 3 p.m.to 5 p.m.),group B(un-timely electroacupuncture at the period of the day from 9 a.m.to 11 a.m.),group C(model group) and group D(normal control group).Asthma was induced by chicken ovalbumin in groups A,B and C.The hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining method and terminal-deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling(TUNEL) method were applied in the pathological and quantitative observation of eosinophils(EOS) in lung slices.Results The number of EOS was increased in model group(P

Postgraduate education must be systematic and explicit.In recent years,the cultivation of domestic tertiary education for postgraduate students conducted a multi-disciplinary approach.This article give comment on the current postgraduate training objectives,methods,curriculum and training process,training instructors,and puts forward some problems to be discussed in depth.

Objective To apply sandplay therapy in cerebral palsy children's parents for the psychological problems. Methods 40 parents of cerebral palsy children were randomly divided into experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=20). The experimental group accepted sandplay therapy once a week for 10 weeks, and the control group without any intervention. All the parents were assessed with Symptoms Check-List 90 (SCL-90), Self-Esteem Scale (SES), compliance questionnaire, Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30) before and after the experiment. Results The scores of all the factors of SCL-90 were lower in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05), with the higher scores of compliance and self-esteem (P<0.05), and the high quality of life in physical function, role in work and social function (P<0.05) in the experimental group. Conclusion Sandplay therapy can be used to solve the psychological problems of cerebral palsy children's parents, and improve their compliance, self-esteem and quality of life.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the quality standard for Tongmai pill. METHODS:TLC was used for the qualitative iden-tification of Salvia miltiorrhiza,Angelica sinensis and Carthamus tinctorius. HPLC was used for the content determination of feru-lic acid. The column was Diamonsil C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1% aqueous phosphoric acid (17∶83,V/V) at a flow rate of 1 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 316 nm,the column temperature was 30 ℃,and the injection volume was 10 μl.. RESULTS:The TLC of S. miltiorrhiza,A. sinensis and C. tinctorius showed clear spots and good separation. The linear range of ferulic acid was 8-80 μg/ml(r=0.999 8);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2%;recovery was 97.2%-99.6%(RSD=1.2%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The standard can be used for the quality control of Tongmai pill.

OBJECTIVE: To establish an animal model of myocardial ischemia with blood stasis syndrome in mini-swines. METHODS: An animal model of myocardial ischemia was established in mini-swines by oppressing the coronary artery through the expansion of inner layer of Ameroid constrictor and the Ameroid constrictor was implanted into the distal end of the initial part of the first branch of interventricular septum of ramus descendens anterior arteriae coronariae sinistrae. Dynamic observation of behavior changes, general health status and changes of hemorheological parameters in the mini-swines were made after operation. RESULTS: The coronary angiography showed that the stenosis rate in ischemic group was more than 75% four weeks after operation. Compared with before operation and sham-operated group, there were great changes of behavior, general health status, tongue color and hemorheological parameters in ischemic group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The animal model of myocardial ischemia with blood stasis syndrome in mini-swines was established successfully 4 weeks after operation. The pathological process in the animal model is similar to that in the patients with chronic myocardial ischemia. So this model can be adopted in the research of myocardial ischemia with blood stasis syndrome.

Objective To observe the effect of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor receptor Fc fusion Protein (rhTNFR:Fc) treatment on IgM-RF,IgG-RF,IgA-RF of patients with rheumatoid arthritis.Methods A randomized,active-comparator controlled,parallel group study were conducted.110 patients were enrolled and were randomly divided to the treatment group,in which patients were treated with twice weekly subcutaneous injection of rhTNFR:Fc (25 mg) (rhTNFR:Fc treatment group,n=55),and the MTX froup,in which MTX (the mean dosage was 15 mg/week) (MTX group,n=55) for 24 weeks.Blood routine,IgM-RF,IgG-RF,IgA-RF,and disease activity score 28 (DAS28) were monitored.Student's t-test was used for statistical analysis.Results The level of IgM-RF decreased significantly in the rhTNFR:Fc treatment group 24 week(29±16) U/ml later.However,the level of IgG-RF(145±20) U/ml,IgA-RF(153±34) U/ml increased significantly in the rhTNFR:Fc group,and the level of IgG-RF (62±14) U/ml,IgA-RF (66-±19) U/ml decreased significantly in the MTX group.Conclusion Although rhTNFR:Fc,is effective in treating the clinical symptoms of RA,it seems to affect RF producing-B cells either directly or indirectly.
