Objective To investigate the related risk factors for stroke among residents aged over 26 years old in communities in Chongqing,to set up a quantitative criteria for determining risk for stroke,and to evaluate and predict the risk of the stroke for individuals.Methods 1 034 cases with 1:2 matched controls were chosen from five communities in Chongqing,which were interviewed with a uniform questionnaire.The risk factors of stroke were analyzed with Logistic regression,collected the odds ratios of risk factors for stroke,and different levels of risk exposure factors be converted into a risk scores by using statistical models.The related risk scores were added to obtain a combined risk score to predict the individual's risk of stoke in the future.Results An individual health risk appraisal model of stroke applicable to individuals of different sex,age,health behavior,disease and family history was established.For men,11 risk factors,including hypertension(5.728),coronary heart disease(5.404),family history of stroke(4.599),and so on,were entered the main effect model;for women,hypertension(5.270),family history of stroke(4.866),hyperlipidemia(4.346),and other eight risk factors entered the main effect model.Conclusion Personal diseases,including hypertension,CHD and hyperlipidemia,etc.,are very important risk factors for stoke.The stroke prevalence can be effectively reduced by changing the unhealthy lifestyle and curing the related individual diseases.The evaluation model of the risk score for stroke based on the main risk factors could be useful in the future health education and community health service on stroke prevention.

Objective To determine the relative factors of the onset of repeated ectopic pregnancy. Methods The clinical data of the first time ectopic pregnancy of 28 cases with repeated ectopic pregnancy were analysed, and compared with those of 56 cases of non-repeated ectopic pregnancy onsetting at the same period. The factors measured included: age at onset of disease, age at first coitus, gravidity, parity, methods of contraception, duration of amenorrhea,duration of vaginal bleeding, serum ?-human chorionic gonadotropin level, volume of intraperitoneal bleeding, types of ectopic pregnancy, methods of therapy and inflammation evidence of fallopian tube. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the relative factors for onset of repeated pregnancy. Results The risk factors and its odds ratio (OR) from the multivariate analysis were as follow: anastomosis of the tube(62.74, P=0.043), positive evidence of inflammation of the tube (54.85, P=0.000), no contraception (11.29, P=0.002), contraception by condom occasionally (4.75, P=0.046); the protective factors and its OR were as follow: therapy being salpingectomy and sterilization of the opposite tube(0.06, P=0.049), oral contraception (0.10, P=0.050) and pharmacotherapy (0.33, P=0.002). Conclusions The risk factors of onset of repeated ectopic pregnancy include: anastomosis of the tube, positive evidence of inflammation of the tube, no contraception and contraception by condom occasionally; the protective factors include: therapy being salpingectomy and sterilization of the opposite tube, oral contraception and pharmacotherapy.

Objective: To examine the characteristics of the pulse manifestation in the hepatocarcinoma patients, and to study the value of pulse manifestation in typing according to diagnosis of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Methods: The patients' pulse manifestation was examined by the pulse instrument, and was typed according to the symptom, sign, and tongue appearance. The pulse indices and photography were analyzed among syndromes of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Results: Ninety percent of patients had string like pulse, slippery pulse, and string like and slippery pulse in 147 hepatocarcinoma cases. H 1 was significantly higher in stagnation of liver qi and deficiency of spleen patients type than that in dampness and heat in liver and gallbladder patients type and in Yin deficiency of liver and the kidney patients type. H 3/H 1 significantly decreased in of stagnation of liver qi and deficiency of spleen patients type than that in dampness and heat in liver and gallbladder patients type. H 4/H 1 was significantly lower in dampness and heat in liver and gallbladder patients type than that in other 3 types of patients. Conclusion: Pulse indices and photography detected by the pulse instrument are associated with types according to diagnosis of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is valuable to pulse detection by the pulse instrument. [

Objective Electric stimulation functional observation statistics (FES) were collected for elderly patients with cerebral apoplexy in search of any curative effect. Methods A total of 40 patients with cerebral apoplexy were divided randomly into a FES group of 20 cases and a control group of 20 cases. Both groups received the same routine rehabilitation training and basic drugs. The FES group was also treated using FES therapeutic apparatus for 30 min daily over 3 weeks (15 sessions). The control group received no electrical stimulation. Upper limb motor function, lower limb motor function, balanceand Barthel's index were evaluated. Results In the FES group, upper limb motor function was significantly improved after treatment, and significantly better compared with the control group. Lower limb motor function showed the same significant differences. Balance was also significantly better after treatment and significantly better than in the control group. Similar significant improvements were seen in terms of Barthel's index. Conclusions FES can improve the functional capacity of elderly patients with cerebral apoplexy hemiplegia and improve their ability in daily activities.

Objective To construct the genes expression profile database of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice model and to screen the high candidate genes with microarray analysis. Methods Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products on behalf of 4 096 genes from mixed mice tissue library were assembled on the modified Oako glass slide. The general RNA from 6 EAE mice model and 6 normal mice head was transcripted into cDNA by RT-PCR and labelled with cy-3 and cy-5.6 groups each consist one EAE mice and a control. These two probes were mixed and hybridized with the above mentioned gene chips. Scan array 4000 was used for scanning the hybridizing signals and GenePixPro 3.0 for date analysis. Results Of the total 4 096 genes monitored, 43 genes in group one showed changes in expression level of the ratio outside 0.5 and 2, 30 genes differed in group two, 176 genes changed in group three, 76 in group four, 294 in group five and 129 in group six. Conclusions The results showed the consistent different genes expression throughout the EAE mice model. The genes related to immune, cell structure, cell cycle, ion channel, signal transduction, protein synthesis and metabolism are involved in EAE pathogenesis. The results provide deeper insights into the mechanism of EAE and multiple sclerosis.
