Objective:To explore the influence of sitting baduanjin on blood pressure level in aged patients with hy-pertension .Methods:According to random number method ,a total of 84 patients with hypertension were randomly and equally divided into baduanjin group and routine nursing group .Based on routine nursing care ,baduanjin group received sitting baduanjin training intervention .Blood pressure level was measured ,compared and analyzed between two groups before and three months after intervention .Results:After three-month intervention ,compared with be-fore intervention ,there were significant reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP ) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in both groups (P<0.01 all) ,and SBP of baduanjin group was significantly lower than that of routine nurs-ing group [ (127.54 ± 6.72) mmHg vs .(132.82 ± 6.78) mmHg ,P<0.01] ,but there was no significant difference in DBP between two groups ,P>0.05. Conclusion:Long-term sitting baduanjin training can effectively lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension .

[Objective]To explore the feasibility of SF-36 in assessment of health-related quality of life(HRQOL) in patients with total hip replacement.[Method]The reliability,validity and responsiveness of the SF-36 in 90 total hip replacement patients were analyzed.[Result]The SF-36 was of better validity by factor analysis.All domains of the scale,the test-retest reliability correlation coefficients were better and internal consistency coefficients were more than 0.7 for five domains,except role-physical 0.43;vitality 0.57;role emotional 0.15.The SF-36 could detect the change of quality of life over before and after treatment sensitively(P

The abnormality of corneal development leads to congenital corneal endothelial dystrophy,Peter abnormality,Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome and squamous cell epithelioma of ocular surface etc..The development of cornea experiences the different phases,such as induction,embryogenesis and maturation.In this procedure,cellular proliferation and differentiation are tightly regulated by signaling cascades.Some members of these signaling cascades have been identified in recent studies.By using embryo tissue and genetic manipulation techniques in the study of corneal development researchers reveal that a number of transcription factors such as Pax6,Kruppellike factor (KLF6),transforming growth factor β (TGF-β),TGF-α are expressed,and they play major roles in different stages of cornea development.This review summarizes the recent researching progress in the study of transduction pathway and factors during the development of the cornea.

Glaucoma is a group of irreversible blind eye diseases with specific optic nerve damage and visual field defect. Early diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma is vital for prognosis, but difficult in clinical practice. Macular ganglion cell complex thickness(mGCC) consists of the inner three layers of retina:retinal nerve fiber, ganglion cell and inner plexiform layers, which is glaucoma target tissue so to be measured the thickness of the mGCC as better indicator for early diagnosis in glaucoma. Optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) is a non-contact, good repeatability technique to obtain fast high- resolution images from the anterior and posterior segments of the eye, and it has been widely used in ophthalmology. Spectral- domain ( SD ) OCT allows a higher image resolution and can measure the thickness of mGCC thickness, providing new parameters for the early diagnosis of glaucoma.

Objective To assess the serum CA125 in literatures of ovarian neoplasms based on evidence-based medicine.Methods The relating reports published in the years of 1996—2003 were collected and evaluated according to the evidence-based medicine principles. Main outcomes include design methods,sample screening,establishment of control group,blind method,criteria of diagnostic trials.Results In the reports collected, gold standard was adopted in 62 reports and independent blind method was adopted in 23 reports, criteria of diagnostic trials such as sensitivity, specificity and likelihood ratio were incomplete and there was no descriptions okf potential bias controlling. As for the literatures sharing the same method ,their conclusion did not totally accord with each other.Conclusion There is no evidence to implicate that serum CA125 was considered an independent predictor of the diagnosis of ovarian cancer.

Objectives To clarify the differential diagnostic value for iron deficiency anemia (IDA)and anemia of chronic disease(ACD)with analysis method of multiple parameters.Methods The serum concentrations of iron parameters (SI,TIBC,TF,SF and sTfR),inflammatory index(IL-1,IL-6,TNF-β),CRP and hepcidin were detected in patients with IDA and ACD by biochemical method and ELISA respectively.Results In the differential diagnosis of IDA versus ACD,the SF (98.6 versus 6.0,P=0)and sTfR/logSF[(13.1-±-4.4) versus (27.6 ± 16.5),P=0.002] had clinical value for the differential diagnosis.Inflammatory factors level was increased in two groups,only the difference in CRP between IDA and ACD showed a statistical significance.The hepcidin had the clinical value in differential diagnosis for single disease diagnosis of IDA and ACD and for differential diagnosis between IDA and ACD [(144.6 ±-1.9) versus (86.5-±-3.1),P＜ 0.05].Correlation analysis showed that the sTfR/logSF had a significantly negative correlation with SI(P=0.002),a significantly positive correlation with TIBC and TRF,and no significant correlation with inflammatory factors.The hepcidin had significantly positive correlation with IL-6 and TNF-β,and a significantly negative correlation with SI.The positive correlation was observed between sTfR/logSF and Hepcidin(r=0.376,P=0.005).Conclusions Analysis method of multiple parameters could make a differential diagnosis of ACD in the elderly.

Objective:To observe the therapeutic effect of Xiaoshui Formula Ⅱ on malignant ascites.Methods:60 cases of malignant ascites were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group.The treatment group was treated with external application of Xiaoshui Formula Ⅱ and the control group with intraperitoneal injection of DDP.The therapeutic effect of Xiaoshui Formula Ⅱ was observed.Results:The total effective rate of ascites resolution was 87.1% in the treatment group and 58.6% in the control group.There were significant differences in improvement of clinical symptoms,Karnofsky score and correlative indexes between the two groups.Conclusion:Xiaoshui Formula Ⅱ has better therapeutic effect than intraperitoncal injection of DDP,with no side effect.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor(ACEI) and angiotensin receptor antagonist(ARB) on renal function of type 2 diabetic nephropathy patients.Methods 60 patients with type 2 diabetic nephropathy and mild or midrange damages of renal function were observed.The patients all accepted routine diabetic therapy and were randomly divided into three groups,ACEI group,ARB group and combination group with ACEI and ARB.The blood pressure,blood creatinine and urine protein of 24 hours were measured before therapy and 8 weeks after therapy.Results The excretive amounts of urine protein decreased in all groups.The excretive levels of urine protein in combination group significantly decreased than in ACEI group and ARB group(P
