Objective To explore the occurrence of diaphragmatic muscle fatigue(DMF) in children with pneumonia and its relationship with respiratory failure.Methods One hundred and twenty-six cases of pneumonia(pneumonia group) and 60 healthy children(healthy control group) were selected,and 2K-V1 type intelligence electric impedance respirograph was used to measure diaphragmatic function of the children in both groups to find if the ribcage-abdomen motion was synchronic and to calculate M levels.The abdomen impedance values as X-axis were calculated,which were regarded,and the chest impedance values as Y-axis were calcaulated,which described two-dimensional chart of ribcage-abdomen motion curve and the ? angle which was between connection of maximum X value to the smallest X value and the X-axis were calculated.According to the changes of chest-abdominal curve in one-dimensional chart and the changes of M value and ? angle,the degree of the diaphragmatic muscle fatigue was judged.Results There were 98 cases of DMF in the 126 children with pneumonia,and 68 cases of which were type Ⅰ DMF,and 30 cases were type Ⅱ DMF.One-dimensional chart showed contradictory chest-abdominal respiratory motional curve,and two-dimensional chart moved in a clockwise direction.M value was(46.1?8.4)%,? angle was(136.7?12.0) degrees in children with type Ⅰ DMF;One-dimensional chart showed that the peak value of chest-abdominal respiratory motional curve dislocates,and two-dimensional chart moved in a counter-clockwise direction.M value was(17.2 ? 3.2)%,? angle was(48.2 ? 9.5) degrees in children with type Ⅱ DMF;the control group had M value(4.3 ? 1.0)%,? angle was(31.7 ? 5.2) degree.There were significant differences in M value and ? angle between type Ⅰ DMF children,type Ⅱ DMF children and healthy children(Pa

Objective To explore the relationship between dysfunctional beliefs and attitudes on sleep and sleep disturbances before and after a short-term pharmacotherapy in patients with major depression. Methods Sixty-six (29 male, 37 female, 34.0±9.5 years old) patients with major depression were recruited before the treatment. Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep (DBAS) questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) were assessed before and after a 4-week antidepressant treatment. Results After the 4-week antidepressant treatment, depressive and anxiety symptoms were alleviated significantly, whereas sleep disturbance still persisted. And sleep quality was closely related with problematic sleep beliefs after the treatment.Conclusion Some evidences are provided for cognitive behavioral therapy during antidepressant therapy, and the therapy should be matched with problematic beliefs and attitudes.

0.05].After 12 week treatment,the YGTSS total score in study group was significantly lower [(27.88?14.24) vs(36.53?17.45) scores] and the reduction rate of YGTSS score was significantly higher [(43.12?18.42)% vs(33.49?14.38)%] compared with those in control group(Pa

Objective To develop a method to produce leukoreduced platelet concentrates(LR-PCs) from pooled buffy coats in additive solution(a mixture of solutions for medical use).Methods LR-PCs were made from 6 pooled buffy coats(12 whole-blood units) and 220g additive solution,including 90% multiple electrolytes injection solution,8% ACD-A and 2% 50g/L NaHCO3 injection solution.After centrifugation,the PCs were leukoreduced with a filter and stored in a 600ml platelet storage bag.LR-PCs were prepared in a closed system.Results Routinely produced LR-PCs(n=30) contained(2.96?0.31)?1011 platelets with a volume of(270? 32)ml.The WBC and RBC count were(1.3?0.2)?106 and(5.8?1.1)?109 per unit,respectively.The CD62P expression was(22.5? 10.6)%.After 8-day storage,the in vitro quality of LR-PCs,including pH,hypotonic shock response(HSR) and CD62P expression were 7.14?0.04,(54.0?8.2)% and(45.7?13.8)%,respectively.Conclusion In terms of the in vitro quality of LR-PCs,the method of preparing LR-PCs from pooled buffy coats in mixing solutions is feasible.

Objective:To investigate the demands for cardiac rehabilitation information in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CHD) and influential factors.Methods:Information demands for cardiac rehabilitation in CHD patients were surveyed by questionnaire and the influential factors were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and multi-factor analysis of variance.Results:The score of demands for cardiac rehabilitation information in CHD patients was 3.86±0.53.Among them,the most urgent top 5 items were:drug knowledge,diagnosis and treatment,basic knowledge of the heart,emergency and safety and nutrition knowledge.The top 3-demand modes were:communication with medical workers,movies or videos to take home,and lectures.The score of demands for cardiac rehabilitation information was different in different age groups.The highest score was in the patients with age less than 60.There were different demands in different characteristic groups.Conclusion:The most urgent need and mode are drug knowledge and communication with medical workers,respectively.With the age increase,the demands for patients' cardiac rehabilitation information decrease.An individualized health education strategy should be developed according to the characteristics of CHD patients.

Objective To investigate the influence of oral intake of goop before oral intestinal cleaning drugs on blood glucose,cleansing effect and tolerance of patients.Methods 88 patients who were prepared for intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope were randomly divided into the food-intake group (group A) and the fasting group (group B) with 44 cases in each group.Group A was given goop 2.5 hours before oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs,group B fasted before oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs.Blood glucose was monitored before as well as 6 hours after oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs.Intestinal cleansing effect was evaluated during intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope.Cases of patients who ceased intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope due to intolerance were summarized.The blood glucose,cleansing effect and tolerance of patients were compared between two groups.Results There was significant difference in blood glucose between the two groups before and after oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs.The cleansing effect showed no significant difference,but the difference of tolerance between two groups was significant.Conclusions Intake of goop 2.5 hours before oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs does not affects intestinal cleansing effect,and it can obviously increase the blood sugar,improve tolerance of patients,thus ensure the smooth completion of intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Wenjing Shexue Recipe ( WSR) in treating polycystic ovarian syndrome ( PCOS) with liver-kidney deficiency, and to explore the possible therapeutic mechanism. Methods Seventy-four PCOS patients were randomized into observation group ( N=38) and control group ( N=36). The observation group was given oral use of WSR and the control group was treated with Ethinylestradiol and Cyproterone Acetate Tablets orally. Both groups received treatment for 6 months, and were followed up for 3 moths after drug withdrawal. After treatment, the therapeulic effect was evaluated , and the changes of body mass index ( BMI) , hairiness. acne, and sexual hormone levels were monitored before and after treatment. Results ( 1) The total effective rate of the observation gorup was 92.11% and that of the control group was 75.00%, the difference being significant ( P<0.05). ( 2) After treatment for 6 months, body mass index (BMI), the scores of hairiness and acne, and serum levels of testosterone (T) and luteotrophic hormone (LH) were decreased in the observation group (P<0.05 compared with those before treatment). The control group had lower scores of hairiness and acne and serum levels of T and LH than those before treatment ( P<0.05) , but BMI showed no obvious decrease (P>0.05) . The results of follow-up showed that BMI, the scores of hairiness and acne, and serum levels of T and LH were still lower in the observation group than those before treatment (P<0.05), but the above indexes except acne scores were increased in the control group (P>0.05 compared with those before treatment) and were higher than those of the observation group (P<0.05). Conclusion WSR exerts better effect for the treatment of PCOS with liver-kidney deficiency than Ethinylestradiol and Cyproterone Acetate Tablets, and the possible mechanism is probably related with the regulation of endocrine disturbance by decreasing serum T and LH levels.
