Objective To study the effects of Huazhi Rougan granule in treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and its effect on level of adiponectin, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α.Methods 88 patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease from October 2014 to September 2015 in our hospital were selected,and divided into observation group and control group according to the order of admission.The control group were taken silibinin meglumine tablets for treatment on the basis of aerobic exercise , dietary guidance.The observation group on the basis of aerobic exercise , dietary guidance were given Huazhi Rougan granule for treatment.The observation group were taken aerobic exercise and metformin for treatment.Two groups of patients with clinical efficacy were evaluated, blood parameters, adiponectin, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-αwere measured before and 30 days after treatment between the two groups of patients.Results After treatment, the total clinical efficacy of the observation group was significantly higher than the control group ( P<0.05 ) .The levels of adiponectin in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05).The level of IL-6, TNF-αin the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).Low density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Huazhi Rougan granule can effectively reduce the levels of TNF-αand IL-6 and increase the level of adiponectin in nonalcoholic fatty liver patients, and the clinical curative effect is good.

Objective To observe the effect of fluoxetine on the depression neurologic impairment and activity of daily living after cerebral infarction.Methods 80 patients with acute cerebral infarction following depression were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 40 cases in each group. Two groups were assessed with Modified Edinburgh-Scandinavia Stroke Scale(MESSS), Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD) and Modified Barthel Index(MBI) before and after treatment.Results There were no significant difference between the two groups before treatment in HAMD, MESSS and MBI(P>0.05), while there were significantly different between the two groups in HAMD, MESSS and MBI 6 weeks after treatment(P<0.01). Conclusion Fluoxetine can alleviate depression of patients with acute cerebral infarction and improve the symptom of neurological function and the activity of daily living.

Objective To explore the effect of early pelvis control training on the balance function in patients with hemiplegia. Methods 60 early stroke patients were divided into the treatment group and the control group. The patients in the treatment group accepted the early pelvis control training based on the normal early rehabilitation which was given to the control. They were evaluated with Berg Balance Scale and the Modified Bathel Index before and 2 months after treatment. Results The scores of Berg Balance Scale and the Modified Bathel Index of the treatment group improved more than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The early pelvis control training can improve the balance dysfunction after hemiplegia effectively.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of coronary heart disease risk fac tors,and explore the relationship of severity of coronary artery lesions in patients with coronary heart disease and coronary heart disease risk factors.Methods In our hospital for treatment of coronary artery disease patients during April 2013 to August 2014,230 cases of hospitalized patients were divided into two groups after coronary angiography diagnosis,including 170 cases of patients with coronary heart disease as the observation group,and 60 patients with coronary atherosclerosis as the control group with the degree of stenosis less than 50%.The clinical data of two groups were used to study the risk factors for coronary heart disease.The relationship was analyzed between severity of coronary artery pathological changes and coronary heart disease risk factors.Results For the observation group,type 2 diabetes,smoking,and men were associated with coronary heart disease (CHD),with the corresponding OR (95% CI) of 17.489 (11.013-30.017),48.632 (20.379-117.178),and 18.976 (13.105-28.331),respectively.Smoking and type 2 diabetes were associated with coronary artery stenosis degree (P < 0.05),with OR 95% (CI) of 10.15 (2.012-2.584),and of 7.23 (1.613-2.176).The results found there was no relationship among hypertension,dyslipidemia,coronary heart disease (CHD),and age.There was a link between the body mass index (BMI) and the severity of the disease.For observation group,left ventricular ejection function,high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),and Ccr were related to the severity of coronary lesions,and the patients existed lower Ccr,left ventricular ejection function abate,and increased hs-CRP levels increase,P<0.05,and the OR (95% CI) were 1.986 (5.204-17.627),1.103 (1.012-1.027),and 2.131 (1.901-2.369).Conclusions Type 2 diabetes,smoking,male patients with coronary heart disease risk factors had a close relationship,and the severity of coronary artery lesions included the reduced re nal function in patients and the increased hs-CRP level.

ObjectiveTo assess the coverage and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines in the elderly. MethodsThis study was conducted in Changning District of Shanghai, targeting people aged 60 years and above. Vaccination data between 21 December 2020 and 28 February 2022 was retrieved from the Shanghai Collective Immunization System. Information on confirmed cases of COVID-19 from March 2022 through May 2022 was collected from the National Notifiable Diseases Reporting System. Vaccine effectiveness was calculated using the screening method. ResultsAs of 28 February 2022, 69.89% of people aged ≥60 years had received ≥1-dose vaccine, 63.80% had received full primary vaccination and 31.91% had received a booster dose. Vaccination coverage declined over age, with the lowest coverage in the elderly aged ≥80 years. Moreover, COVID-19 vaccination provided the highest protection against severe/critical illness and death due to the Omicron variants in the elderly aged ≥60 years. Full primary vaccination showed 96.15%(95%CI:84.15‒99.06)of vaccine effectiveness and booster vaccination showed 100% of the effectiveness against severe/critical COVID-19 and death. ConclusionsFull primary and booster vaccination coverage in the elderly is low, especially in those aged 80 and above. Our study finds high protection against COVID-19 associated severe/critical illness and death from both full primary and booster vaccination of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines in the elderly aged ≥60 years.
