OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of sertraline hydrochloride combined with esomeprazole in the treatment of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease complicating with depression. METHODS:80 patients with gastroesopha-geal reflux disease complicating with depression selected from our hospital were divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 40 cases in each group. Control group received Esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets orally 40 mg,qd;observation was additionally given Sertraline hydrochloride tablets 50 mg,qd,on the basis of control group. Both groups received treatment for 1 month. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed as well as clinical symptom score,gastroesophageal reflux disease diagnostic questionnaire (GERD Q scale) score,SDS score. The occurrence of ADR was compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The total effective rate of observation group 92.50%,which was significantly higher than 77.50% of control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in clinical symptom score,GERD Q scale score and SDS score(P>0.05). After treatment,above scores of 2 groups were improved signifi-cantly,and the observation group was significantly better than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Sertraline hydrochloride com-bined with esomeprazole shows significantly therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease complicating with depression,and can effectively alleviate the clinical symptoms and improve depression with good safety.

Objective To investigate effects of laparoscopic repair of abdominal wall incisional hernia using polypropylene and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene(e-PTFE) composite mesh. Methods Forty-one patients with abdominal wall incisional hernia(4~25 cm in length and 3~18 cm in width) were treated in this hospital from October 2004 to August 2005. The patients received laparoscopic mesh herniorrhaphy after complete dissection of adhesion using an ultrasonic scalpel.A polypropylene and(e-PTFE) composite mesh(Bard Composite Mesh) was used and fixed using the Ethicon Endopath Multifeed Stapler(EMS).Results The laparoscopic mesh herniorrhaphy was successfully completed in all the 41 patients without conversions to open surgery.The operative time was 60~182 min(mean,85 min).Postoperatively,the patients felt slight pain and began to take food on the second day.The time to first passing flatus was 25~41 hours(mean,32 hours).The postoperative hospital stay was 5~7 days(mean,6 days).No recurrence occurred during a follow-up period of 6~16 months(mean,9 months) in the 41 patients. Conclusions The laparoscopic incisional hernia repair using the Bard Composite Mesh is a safe and effective method.

Objective To search for the factors which may be responsible to the increase in plasma homocysteine(Hcy)levels after surgery.Methods Blood samples were taken from 40 patients(20 patients with coronary artery bypass and the remainders with off-pump coronary artery bypass)1 day before operation and 1,3,5 and 7 day(s)after operation.Hcy,copper,ceruloplasmin,ferrei ion,folate,vitamin B12 and C-reactive protein(CRP)were then measured using clinical chemistry methods.Results The plasma concentrations of ceruloplasmin,copper and Hcy increased significantly at 3rd,4th and 6th day after operation respectively.The plasma concentrations of ferreous ion and vitamin B12 declined obviously at 3rd day after operation,and then increased slowly.In contrast,the plasma concentration of CRP increased significantly at 3rd day after operation,then decreased gradually to normal level.No significant changes were found in folate level before and after operation.Those findings mentioned above showed no significant difference between the two groups.Conclusions The increased plasma concentration of Hcy after operation may be caused by the internal metabolism of copper rather than by the coronary artery bypass.

Objective To investigate changes and the clinical significance of serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D level in patients of Xinjiang Uygur and Han nationalities with mild cognitive impairment.Methods On the base of early stage of epidemiological survey of Xinjiang Uygur and Han population over 60 years old,adopting multi-stage stratified random cluster sampling method and referencing DSM-Ⅳ,206 cases of MCI patients (study group)were selected and 412 healthy elderly subjects (control) matching for age,nationality and gender were recruited for case-control study.The serum level of 25(OH) D was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The serum level of 25(OH)D was significantly lower in MCI group of two nationalities (7.89±0.29 μg/L) than in normal control group [(8.65± 0.21) μg/ml,P＜0.05].The serum level of 25(OH)D was (8.41±0.34) μg/L in Han group,and (8.37±0.32)μg/L in Uygur group,with no significant difference (P＞0.05).The 25 (OH)D level was significantly lower in female[(8.23± 0.32) μg/L] than in male [(8.70±0.42) μg/L,P＜0.05].The serum level of 25(OH)D was lower in female MCI group [(7.56±0.34) μg/L] than in female control group [(8.41 ±0.31)μg/L],with significant difference (P＜0.05).While there was no significant difference between male MCI and male control group (P＞0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the risk factors of MCI might include low serum 25 (OH) D levels (OR =1.163,95 ％ CI:0.978-1.447),a decreased physical labor (OR=1.420,95％ CI:1.10-1.860),low education degree (OR =1.504,95％ CI:1.129-2.130),celibacy (OR=1.293,95％CI:0.845-1.440),hypertension (OR=1.954,95％CI:1.342-2.670),diabetes (OR =1.320,95％ CI:1.145-1.710),smoking history (OR =1.350,95％ CI:1.101-2.293),high BMI (OR=1.329,95％CI:1.068-1.781).Conclusions The serum 25(OH)D level is lower in MCI patients in Xinjiang Uygur and Han populations than in normal people,but there is no significant difference.The 25 (OH)D deficiency is associated with increased odds for cognitive impairment in the elderly Xinjiang population,which is more obvious in the female.The occurrence and development of MCI is affected by multiple risk factors.

OBJECTIVE To study the hospital infection among surgical system inpatients in order to work out more effective management plans concerning hospital infection.METHODS Totally 5963 surgical patients from Dec 2000 to Nov 2002 were analyzed by means of the retrospective study.RESULTS Among them there were hospital infections in 243 cases.The surgical hospital infection rate was 4.08% and the neurosurgical hospital infection rate was 5.37% which was the highest among all departments.The main part of infection mostly located in lower respiratory tract(21.30%),then were higher respiratory and urinary tracts(9.88%),incision site(10.70%),gastrointestinal tract(9.05%) and the others(6.17%).The infection rate in male patients was higher than in the females.The sex ratio was 2.2∶1.The infection rate was 4.67%.The highest infection rate after admission in hospital and at 31 to 60 days from January to March(4.95%) as well as from October to December(4.58%).The bacteriological rate was 28.40%,lower than the rate of≥50.00% demanded by the Ministry of Health.CONCLUSIONS The hospital infection in surgical patients is closely related to the departments,sex,duration of hospital stay,season and invasive clinical procedures.
