Objective To explore the self-management behaviors of the patients with lumbar disc herniation. Methods Chronic disease self-management behavior measuring scale was used to investigate the self-management behaviors of 96 lumbar disc herniation patients. Results The score on self-management behaviors of the LDH patients was 20.42±7.52. 65.63%~84.38%of the patients took the wrong position at sitting, moving articles, and fetching articles from a low and high spot. 59.38%of them did not wear the waist supporter. 73.96%~95.83%of them did not follow the doctors' advice to sleep on hard bed, carry weights and keep the back warm. Conclusions The self-management behavior among LDH patients is dissatisfying. The nurses should provide patients with education on self-management behaviors, instructing them to take effective functional exercises, focusing on importance of cognitive symptom management in relieving pain and reducing negative emotion. Meanwhile, the nurses should advice patients to take right self-management behavior in daily life in order to promote the recovery of the function by patients' healthy behavior and life style.

Objective:To study the effectiveness and safety of combined intraoral and cutaneous using of long pulsed 1064 nm Nd∶YAG and 2940 nm Er∶YAG lasers in facial rejuvenation.Methods:Twenty-one female patients with different grades of nasolabial fold were treated with 6 sessions of the combination lasers therapy once a month. Standardized photographs of VISIA were taken before and after treatment to record any changes of facial contour and nasolabial folds. The efficacy assessment was judged by two non-group experienced dermatologists using modified Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale (MFWS), based on the VISIA photos at base line, twelve-week and six-month after treatment. Self-scoring of 5-level satisfaction from patients was also collected and analyzed. Any side effects and complications were recorded.Results:At 12 weeks, mild and moderate nasolabial folds were improved notably, the mean value of MFWS decreased from 1.59 to 0.90, whereas severe nasolabial folds had no remarkable improvement. Six-month after treatment, 18 patients had notable improved, among them: five out of 7 mild cases, 9 out of 10 moderate cases and 2 out of 4 severe cases, and the mean value of MFWS significantly decreased to 0.57 ( P<0.001). The general satisfactory rate of self-scoring was 86%. Two patients had tolerable light burning pain during treatment and two patients got temporary pigmentation that vanished in three months. There were no other adverse reactions and complications. Conclusion:Combined intraoral and cutaneous using oflong pulse 1064 nm Nd∶YAG laser and 2940 nm Er∶YAG laser is a safe and effective therapy for facial rejuvenation.

Objective To investigate the diet-related influencing factors in patients with gallbladder stone. Methods Forty patients with gallbladder stone who were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between July 2015 and September 2015 were enrolled in this prospective study, as the stone group. Another 40 healthy people were selected as the control group. The informed consents of patients in two groups were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to compare the baseline data, body mass index, serum lipid level, dietary composition, living habit and dietary intake between two groups. Normally-distributed data of two groups were compared by t test, and the rates were compared by Chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability test. Results A majority of patients in the stone group were farmers with junior education background, living in rural areas. The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level in the stone group was (1.1±0.3) mmol/L, significantly lower than (1.4±0.4) mmol/L in the control group (t= -3.616, P<0.05). The apolipoprotein A (apoA) level in the stone group was (1.27±0.16) g/L, significantly higher than (1.09±0.27) g/L in the control group (t=2.947, P<0.05). The percentage of eating fat pork in the stone group was 80% (32/40), significantly higher than 35% (14/40) in the control group (χ2=8.286, P<0.05). The percentage of eating cereals and dairy products in the stone group was respectively 10% (4/40) and 20% (8/40), significantly lower than 80% (32/40) and 90% (36/40) in the control group (χ2=19.789, 19.789; P<0.05). There were significant differences in the preference for fatty diet, dietary composition, drinking habit, breakfast habit, eating habit, smoking habit, hand-washing habit and exercise time between two groups (P<0.05). The daily intake of water, dairy products and fruits in the stone group was respectively (743±379) ml, (33±4) g and (128±39) g, significantly less than (1 410±406) ml, (233±88) g and (275±43) g in the control group (t=-5.373, -7.790, -3.293; P<0.05). The daily intake of poultry and edible oil in the stone group was respectively (112±35) and (43±12) g, significantly higher than (21±8) and (22±9) g in the control group (t=4.706, 8.854; P<0.05). Conclusions Lack of diet-related knowledge, high-fat and low-protein diet, irregular eating habit, insufficient drinking water and lack of exercise may probably be correlated with the incidence of gallbladder stone.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between peritoneal thickness and baseline solute transport function in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, and analyze the factors affecting the function of peritoneal transport.Methods:Non-diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients admitted to the Second Hospital of Longyan City from January 2017 to June 2019 were enrolled in this study. The thickness of the peritoneal membrane was measured by color ultrasound instrument before the peritoneal catheterization. Standard peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was performed after one month of peritoneal dialysis. The ratio of corrected creatine in 4 h dialysate to 2 h serum creatine (D/Pcr) was used as a solute baseline transport index, and according to the D/Pcr evaluation results, the patients were divided into high/high average transfer (H) group (D/Pcr≥0.65) and low/low average transfer (L) group (D/Pcr<0.65). The clinical data, peritoneal thickness and peritoneal dialysis related indicators between the two groups of patients were compared. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting the function of peritoneal transport.Results:The amount of peritoneal ultrafiltration in H group was significantly lower than that in L group, intraperitoneal creatinine clearance (Ccr) and peritoneal thickness were significantly higher than those in L group (both P<0.05). Pearson and Spearman correlation results showed that the thickness of peritoneal membrane positively correlated with D/Pcr ( r=0.673, P<0.05), peritoneal Ccr ( r=0.261, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with ultrafiltration of peritoneal dialysis ( r=-0.365, P<0.05). Partial correlation analysis showed that the peritoneal thickness was positively correlated with the solute transport index D/Pcr ( r=0.539, P<0.05) and the peritoneal Ccr ( r=0.338, P<0.05). Binary logistic regression results showed that peritoneal thickening was a risk factor affecting peritoneal transport function ( OR=1.175, 95% CI 1.009-1.369, P<0.05). Conclusions:There is a positive correlation between the peritoneal membrane thickness and the baseline solute transport index in patients with non-diabetic peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal thickening is a risk factor affecting peritoneal transport function.
