Objective To describe survival of patients with aneurysm subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and its related factors. Methods Data of 88 patients with aSAH were analyzed retrospectively, including their age, gender, past medical history, therapeutic measures, complications and prognosis, and so on. Their survival and its related factors were identified by Kaplan-Meier method and COX proportional hazard regression model. Results Eighty-eight patients were followed-up for a total of 141. 9 person-year,with an average of (1.6 ?.0) years, and the longest of 5. 6 years. Survival was 78 percent, 73 percentand 68 percent in the first month, first year and 2. 5 - 5. 6 years after onset, respectively. Administration ofnimodipine (RR = 0. 981, 95 % CI = 0. 965 - 0. 997, P = 0. 023) was potential protective factor for deaths caused by aSAH. Compared with conservative medical treatment, both surgical occlusion (RR =0. 147, 95% CI = 0. 041 - 0. 532, P = 0. 003) and intervention embolotherapy (RR = 0. 221, 95% CI = 0. 060-0. 823, P= 0.024) were also protective factors. However, complications such as hyponatremia, pulmonary infection, alimentary tract hemorrhage (RR = 1. 965, 95% CI - 1. 404 - 2. 748, P < 0. 05) and cerebral vasospasm (RR = 2. 951, 95% CI = 1. 473 - 5. 911, P = 0. 002) were independent risk factors for aSAH.Conclusions Prognosis in patients with hyponatremia, pulmonary infection, alimentary tract hemorrhage and cerebral vasospasm is unfavorable, and aneurysm occlusion by surgical operation, embolotherapy andadministration of nimodipine all can decrease fatality caused by aSAH.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of electroacupuncture on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in patients with post-stroke depression. Methods 21 patients with post-stroke depression were randomly divided into electroacupuncture group (n=11) and drug group (n=10). The electroacupuncture group received electroacupuncture on double Hegu (LI4) and Taichong (LR3) once a day for 8 weeks, while the drug group took fluoxetine hydrochloride dispersible tablets 20 mg a day for 8 weeks. They were evaluated with Hamilton Self-rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) before, and 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment respectively. The rCBF were measured with single positron emission computerized tomography (SPECT) before and 8 weeks after treatment. Results The score of HAMD decreased more in the electroacupuncture group than in the drug group 2 weeks after treatment (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups 4 and 8 weeks after treatment (P>0.05). The rCBF was significantly greater in the electroacupuncture group than in the drug group. Conclusion That electroacupuncture is effective on post-stroke depression, which may be related with the increase of the rCBF levels.

Objective:
To investigate the current status and influencing factors of emotional intelligence among postgraduates, so as to provide the evidence for promoting the mental health of postgraduates.
Methods:
The postgraduates from higher education institutions in Guizhou Province were selected using stratified cluster sampling method from November to December 2023. Demographic information such as gender, college, professional discipline and monthly family income were collected using questionnaire surveys. Stress perception was investigated using the Chinese version of the Stress Perception Scale. Emotional intelligence was investigated using the Chinese version of the Emotional Intelligence Scale. The influencing factors for emotional intelligence were analyzed using a multiple linear regression model.
Results:
Totally 728 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 94.42%. There were 262 males (35.99%) and 466 females (64.01%). The mean score of emotional intelligence was (77.98±15.71) points, the mean score of emotional assessment was (20.57±4.50) points, the mean score of emotional regulation was (18.63±5.22) points, the mean score of emotional using was (18.90±4.87) points, and the mean score of emotional recognition was (19.89±4.73) points. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that professional discipline (economics and law, β'=0.108), monthly family income (3 000-5 000 yuan, β'=0.091; >5 000 yuan, β'=0.086) and stress perception (β'=-0.515) were associated with emotional intelligence among postgraduates.
Conclusion
The emotional intelligence among postgraduates was influenced by professional discipline, monthly family income and stress perception.

The response of glueagon to the change of glucose and its relation to blood pressure in 71 eidely patients with type 2 diabetes was investigated. The results showed that the postprandial increment of glucagon in the group of patients with postprandial 2h plasma glucose increment<2.5 mmol/L was significantly higher than that in the group with plasma glucose inerement≥ 2.5 mmoi/L (P<0. 05). The postprandial increment of glucagon in patients with normal blood pressure was significantly higher than that in patients with hypertension (P<0.05). The results suggest that the decreased response of glucagon to the change in plasma glucose in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes is related to increased blood glucose and high blood pressure.

Objective To develop a method of real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) for detection of translocation ETS leukemia-acute myeloid leukemia 1(TEL-AML1) fusion gene in children with acute lymphoblast leukemia(ALL),and explore its clinical application in minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring.Methods By reverse transcription and RQ-PCR,a quantifying of TEL-AML1 fusion gene was developed,and the expression levels of TEL-AML1 were detected in bone marrow (BM) samples obtained from 24 children with ALL at diagnosis and at the end of induction of remission,as well as at a series of follow-up. Moreover,the results of MRD detection by RQ-PCR were compared with that of detection by routine morphological examine of BM and cells differentiation mark analysis by flow cytometer(FCM),to evaluate the sensitivity of RQ-PCR in MRD monitoring. Results A method of RQ-PCR targeted at TEL-AML1 fusion gene was established. In 11 BM samples,which collected from TEL-AML1 positive children at the end of induction therapy and all of them achieved completely remission (CR) by routine morphological examine,5 samples were found to be MRD positive by RQ-PCR,positive ratio was 45%. There were 15 BM samples collected in maintenance therapy period,and all these samples were CR by routine morphological examine. However,by RQ-PCR,3 out of 15 samples were found to be MRD positive during maintenance therapy period. After intense and maintenance therapy,the MRD levels of the 3 children were declined to negative. In a recrudescent child,the expression of TEL-AML1 fusion gene was rose by a magnitude of 103 copies before relapse,and after induction therapy once again the patient was completely relaxed.Conclusions RQ-PCR targeted at TEL-AML1 has a higher sensitivity than conventional morphologic way and FCM. RQ-PCR can be used in the quantitative detection of MRD,and provide gist for early prognosticating a relapse and instructing clinical therapy.
