Abstract? AlM: To evaluate the meaning of using optical coherence tomography with enhanced depth imaging ( OCT-EDl ) to measure choroidal thickness of central serous retinopathy ( CSC) .?METHODS: With the retrospective case control study, 65 patients (65 eyes) with CSC and 50 healthy controls (50 eyes ) with age, gender and diopter - matched were recruited in this study. OCT-EDl were used to measure the subfoveal choroidal thickness ( SFCT ) in CSC eyes, the fellow eyes and also the control eyes. Of which 40 of the 65 CSC patients self-cured, 14 of them were treated with photodynamic therapy ( PDT ) , the left 11 accepted the laser photocoagulation ( LP ) . SFCT were measured 3mo after that. Compared with the previous data, the statistical analysis was carried out.?RESULTS: The SFCT value of 65 CSC eyes, 65 fellow eyes and 50 control eyes were 436. 23 ± 89. 50, 389. 45 ± 101. 03 and 329. 36 ± 95. 87μm, respectively. The SFCT of suffer and fellow eyes increased significantly compared to the control eyes ( P = 0. 008 and 0. 013, respectively). There was also significant difference in SFCT between the CSC eyes and the fellow eyes (P=0. 021). The SFCT were significantly decreased after PDT (P=0. 032), but with no significant changes after LP or self-cured ( P=0. 057 and 0. 076, respectively).?CONCLUSlON: OCT-EDl is a useful method to assess the choroidal topographic changes of CSC. The SFCT are significantly increased in the CSC eyes compared with that in the fellow eyes and the control eyes.

Objective To improve the utilization ratio of operating room in Affiliated Hospital of Central South Uni-versity Xiangya Medical School by providing more comprehensive reference data for the design of surgical time pre-diction and dispatch system. Methods A questionnaire was designed according to the review of literature and consul-tation of experts for investigating the surgical time influencing factors. The surgical time influencing factors were ana-lyzed by stratified sampling. Results The surgeons-related factor was the highest influencing factor while the pa-tients themselves-related factor was the lowest influencing factor in the 2-dimensional factors. The selected 38 1-dimensional factors could affect the operating time with their mean influencing value>2 . 45 . The recognition of sur-gical time influencing factors was different in different operating rooms. Conclusion There are a variety of surgical time influencing factors. However, the surgeons-related factor is the highest influencing factor. The cognition of anesthesia-related factors and surgeons-related factors differs in different operating rooms.

Based on the social background of increasingly serious aging of the population and the growth of chronic diseases,the paper introduces the mode of Connected Health (cHealth),analyzes the differences between cHealth and Mobile Health (mHealth) as well as the advantages of cHealth,introduces the application of cHealth in contemporary society,and discusses the challenges of cHealth,including the optimization of sensing strategy,creation of data integration,analysis on the new mode,optimization of feedback strategy and development of new health insurance modes.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of tegaserod in treating overlapping symptoms of chronic constipation and dyspepsia or reflux.Methods Eighty eight patients with overlapping symptom were enrolled and randomly divided into:tegaserod group(TEG group,received tegaserod 6 mg bid), PPI group(esomeprazole 40 mg qd)and combined group(tegaserod 6 mg bid and esomeprazole 40 mg qd).Esomeprazole was taken 30 min-prior to the meals in the morning.Each group was treated for 4 weeks.Endpoints to evaluate the clinical efficacy including complete relief rates(CRRs)of epigastric symptoms,the total scores of gastrointestinal symptoms,gastric emptying and colonic transit time and gastric sensation.Results The total scores of gastrointestinal symptoms were all significantly decreased in three groups after four-week therapy,which were more decreased markedly in TEG group(7.23?3.13)and the combined group(5.13?2.26)than that in PPI group(13.58?2.02,P

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture plus oral taking Chinese medicine compared with that of oral taking Chinese medicine only for the treatment of insomnia.Methods Totally 64 patients were randomized into treatment group(33 cases)and control group(31 cases).The treatment group was treated by acupuncture with filiform needle[Baihui(GV 20),Sishen- cong(EX-HN1),Shenting(GV 24),Neiguan(PC 6),Shenmai(BL 62)and Zhaohai(KI 6)being the main points] plus oral taking Chinese medicine.The control group was treated by oral taking Chinese medicine only.All 64 cases were examined by SPIEGEL scale. Results The treatment group was better than the control group in general therapeutic effect and improvement of quality of sleep(P

0.05).92.7%of the objects knew that passive smoking was harmful.71.9%knew that passive smoking made people suffering from cardiopathy more possibly.74.9%knew that the wife whose husband smoked were easier to catch lung cancer.And 84.4%knew that the child whose parent s smoked more possibly took asthma or respiration disease. The correct rates of the four knowledge points were different among different gender and the degree of education,which was higher in female than in male,and higher in high education degree than in the other(P
