Objective To investigate the vascular compliance markers (C1 and C2) and pulse wave velocity in relative with other physiological indexes in a cohort of young normotensive people in Beijing. Methods Two hundred and seventy normotensive volunteers (112 men and 158 women aged 16 to 30 years) were invovled,completed questionnaires of demographic information. Large (C1) and small (C2) arterial compliance were derived from arterial pulse wave contour analysis. Pulse wave velocity(carotid-femoral PWV and carotid-radial PWV)was determined by Complior SP. Results In both male and female C1 correlated positively with height and weight,and negatively with systolic(SBP),mean arterial blood pressure(MAP),pulse pressure(PP),and heart rate(HR),in which PP showed the best correlation with C1;C2 was inversely related with SBP,diastolic blood pressure(DBP),MAP and HR,in which SBP showed the best correlation with C2;cfPWV correlated positively with DBP and age,crPWV correlated positively with age,DBP,height and weight. Conclusion Blood pressure,heart rate were the important influential factors of large and small arterial compliance in both males and females,while diastolic blood pressure was determinant for pulse wave velocity.

Objective To investigate the effects of rehabilitation intervening in different stage on activities of daily living of old stroke patients. Methods 74 old cases were divided into 3 group according to the time from onset of stroke to rehabilitation intervention: group A (＜3 months), group B (3～6 months), and group C (>6 months). They were treated with routine rehabilitation for 2 months and assessed with Barthel Index before and after rehabilitation. Results All the patients improved their ADL significantly after rehabilitation (P=0.000), and those in group A improved more than in group C (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between group A and B, and group B and C (P>0.05). Conclusion The rehabilitation can effectively improve the ADL of old stroke patients. The early the rehabilitation intervenes, the better the ADL is.

ObjectiveTo establish a method for measuring exhaled nitric oxide (eNO)concentrations in neonates with and without hypoxemic respiratory failure ( HRF), and to investigate the relationship between eNO and respiratory parameters in neonates with HRF. Methods Twenty-two newborn infants with HRF and 26 control neonates were included within the first 24 hours of postnatal life.Their eNO levels were detected with a rapid-response chemiluminescence analyzer daily during the first week of their postnatal life, and lung mechanics and gas exchange efficiency were monitored at the same time, such as pulse oxygen saturation ( SpO2 ), inspired fraction of oxygen ( FiO2 ) and other parameters.Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare eNO, SpO2/FiO2 and eNO/ ( SpO2/FiO2 × 100) in two groups. Pearson's correlation analyses were used to determine the relationships between eNO levels and indices of hypoxemic respiratory failure. ResultsDuring the first two days of postnatal life, eNO values of HRF neonates were higher than those of the control neonates[day 1,(7. 9 ± 3.2 )× 10-9 vs. (5.8 ±1.8)×10-9, P＜0.05;day2, (8.8±3.2)×10-9vs. (6.0±2.4)×10-9, P＜0. 05], butthere were no significant differences in the following days. With SpO2/FiO2 increasing, difference of eNO values between the HRF and non-HRF controls became narrowed, but there was still two fold difference of eNO/(SpO2/FiO2 × 100) on day 5-7. ConclusionsA method for measuring eNO was established and there was difference in neonates with and without HRF, which diminished with prolonged postnatal days, reflecting pathophysiological characteristics of HRF.

Objective To explore the expression of 11-β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11-β HSD2) gene in placenta of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) complicated by intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) and the relationship between different expression of 11-β HSD2 in placenta and newborn's birth weight or placental weight. Methods Thirteen cases of term pregnancy mothers with PIH complicated by IUGR were served as PIH complicated by IUGR group, 22 cases of term pregnancy mothers complicated by PHI with appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infant as PIH with AGA group and 36 cases of normal controls as control group. The mRNA expression level of 11-β HSD2 gene in placenta was evaluated by RT-PCR. The level of cord serum cortisol was detected by the method of chemiluminescence. Results The 11-β HSD2 gene mRNA was expressed in placenta. The mRNA expression level of 11-β HSD2 gene in PIH complicated by IUGR group's placenta was significantly lower (0.26±0.09) than that in PIH with AGA group (0.64±0.19) and control group (0.66±0.20). The level of cord serum cortisol in PIH complicated by IUGR group was significantly higher [(71.60±20.20)μg/L] than that in PIH with AGA group [(51.00±13.80)μg/L] and control group [(49.10±14.40)μg/L]. The newborn's birth weight and placental weight in PIH complicated by IUGR group was significantly lower than those in PIH with AGA group and control group. The mRNA expression level of 11-β HSD2 gene in placenta was positively correlated with the birth weight of their newborns and placental weight. Conclusion The lower mRNA expression level of 11-β HSD2 gene in placenta may contribute to the higher cortisol level in fetal of PIH complicated by IUGR and has a negative role on the fetal development.

Methods The Elderly FC Health Education Scale was prepared by qualitative interviews, literature review, and Delphi method. The elderly patients who were over 60 years old and at Chinese PLA 181st Hospital were recruited by the purposive sampling method from January 2013 to August 2015.The diagnostic criteria of RomanⅢwas used to diagnose FC, the data of preliminary investigation and large sample test was used to form the formal scale, and its reliability and validity were further verified. Results The Elderly FC Health Education Scale was compiled with 6 dimensions and 28 items, and the Cronbach alpha coefficient which was the internal consistency reliability of the 6 factor was 0.965; the correlation coefficient analysis of equality reliability Kendall tau-b rank and various index variables score were positive correlation significantly. Both item level content validity index and scale level content validity index of the content validity were as a result of 1. The structure validity of the cumulated variance contribution ratio of the 6 factors were 60.15%. All factor loading coefficients between the items were more than 0.5, which indicated the fitting was good. Conclusions The reliability and validity of the Elderly FC Health Education Scale are good, and the scale may be used as a tool to prevent the elderly FC health education, and also be applied to the elderly FC patients in self-management and continue nursing after leaving hospital.

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of TPH2 gene polymorphisms with the response or remission to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) drugs during treatment of major depressive disorder.

METHODSFor 304 patients receiving SSRIs treatment for major depression disorder, 3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs1007023, rs1023990 and rs4570625) in the TPH2 gene were genotyped by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry using a MassArray Analyzer 4 system. HAMD-17 was adopted as the primary rating tool to evaluate the severity of depression on the baseline and at the end of 1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th week of treatment.

RESULTSThe frequency of GG genotype/G allele for rs4570625 differed significantly with the frequency of TT and GT genotypes/T allele between responders and non-responders (P=0.013 and 0.007, respectively). Genotypic and allelic frequencies of the other polymorphisms did not differ significantly between the two groups (P>0.05). No association of TPH2 gene polymorphism with remission was found with the 3 SNPs.

CONCLUSIONThe polymorphisms of TPH2 gene may play an important role in response to antidepressant drug therapy.

Objective To investigate the effect of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) on the conversion of individuals with ultra-high-risk (UHR) of schizophrenia,and to find out the related influence factors.Methods Patients were randomly divided into study group (50 cases) and control group (49 cases) by the digital random table method.The study group received cognitive behavioral therapy,and the control group only got follow-up questionnaire.Structured Interview for Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS) was used to evaluate psychosis risk symptoms of each UHR individuals at baseline,3 months,6 months,12 months and 18 months respectively and the effects of CBT on conversion and related influencing factors were analyzed.Results There was no significant difference in the conversion rate (P＞ 0.05) between study group and control group after 3 months,but the conversion rate of study group was significantly lower than the control group after 6 months(6.00％ vs 20.41％,P＜0.05),12 months(10.00％ vs 24.49％,P＜0.05)and 18 months(10.00％ vs 28.57％,P＜0.05).CBT could effectively improve conditions for individuals with positive symptom (study group:5.30±3.62,5.04±3.89,4.38±4.13,5.26±3.65,5.94±4.19,control group:5.59±3.62,6.33±5.29,6.98 ±4.96,7.02±5.02,8.39±6.42,F=4.326,P=0.000) of UHR,but the improvement was not significant for negative individuals (F=1.555,P=0.215).CBT could be effective for disorganized symptom (F=6.901,P =0.010) and general symptom (F=7.752,P=0.006) as well.The poor family relationship was the risk factor of conversion to the schizophrenia (OR=3.411,95％CI=1.016-11.453,P=0.047).Conclusion CBT can effectively reduce the conversion rate of UHR individuals.CBT has a good remission effect on the positive symptoms,disintegrating symptoms and general symptoms of UHR.Family relationship affects prognosis of UHR individuals.

Fecal incontinence is a very common problem in critically ill and elderly patients and long-term hospitalized bedridden patients, which can easily cause complications such as perianal dermatitis, pressure ulcers and infections, increase patient suffering, and increase medical expenses. Devices that effectively transfer or drain feces are critical to reducing complications after fecal incontinence. This article uses this as a starting point to summarize the main components, current status of use and evaluation indicators of built-in drainage devices at home and abroad, which provides a reference for the development of more scientific and feasible auxiliary tools for fecal incontinence.
