Hyperglycemia has direct and indirect impact on the occurrence and develop-ment of stroke. At present, hyperglycemia is considered as an independent risk factor for stroke. Hyperglycemia directly involves in cellular and vascular injury through activating polyol pathway, forming advanced glycosylation end product, activating protein kinase C and the hexosamine pathway. Moreover, hyperglycemia involves in vascular injury through the indirectly pathway such as lipid metabolism, glycosylated hemoglobin and insulin. Controlling hyperglycemia may effectively reduce the incidence of stroke and improve the prognosis in patients with stroke.

To determine the effect of propofol on myocardial contractility. Method: Twenty hamsters were allocated to receiving intravenous propofol 2.5mg?kg~(-1)(group Ⅰ) or thiopentone 4mg?kg~(-1)as control (group Ⅱ) dp/dt_(max), was determined using a catheter inserted into the left ventricle from right carotid artery. LVP (LVSP, LVDP, LVMP), CVP, HR were recorded simutaneously. Resutt: dp/dt_(max), decreased insignitieantly in group Ⅰ but signitieantly in group Ⅱ. LVP(LVSP, LVDP, LVMP) decreased, while CVP increased significantly in both groups (P0.05). Conclusion.. The influence of propofol on myocardial contractility is weaker than that of thiopenone.

Objective To study and evaluate various therapeutic means for upper urinary tract calculi. Methods 3 218 cases of upper urinary tract calculi were reviewed.1 365 were pure kidney stones,651 complicated kidney stones,558 group Ⅰ ureteral stones,452 group Ⅱ ureteral stones and 192 group Ⅲ ureteral stones. Results ESWL (extracoporeal shock wave lithotripsy) has been the treatment of choice for pure kidney stones and for groupⅠ ureteral stones.Open surgery has been the best for complicated kidney stones and group Ⅱ,Ⅲ ureteral stones.1 164 patients underwent lithotomy and 1 923 ESWL.131 cases of group Ⅱ ureteral stones in the middle or lower segment of ureter were treated by ureteroscopic lithotripsy.Of the complicated kidney stones,residual stones were observed in 57 (8.8%).1.8%( n =12) of such cases underwent nephrectomy.The complete stone elimination rate in 3 months after ESWL was 81.6% whereas open operation was needed in 18.4%.Ure teroscopic lithotripsy yielded the poorest outcome,nephrectomy being undertaken afterwards in 0.8% and lithotomy in 6.1%. Conclusions ESWL,ureteroscopic lithotripsy,ballast lithotripsy or the combined use of 2 methods makes the surgical management of upper urinary tract calculi easier with less suffering to the patients.The use of double internal stent could reduce the surgical complications.Stone street after ESWL should be well taken care of and inflammation should be well controlled.Skilled technique is needed for ureteroscopic lithotripsy.

Objective:To determine whether implantation of an intraocular lens(IOL) with a modified prolate anterior surface results in reduced spherical aberration and improved contrast sensitivity after cataract surgery.Methods: Consecutively 72 eyes were selected from 53 senile cataract patients who had received phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in Peking University Eye Center.Each was randomly assigned to receive Tecnis Z9001 IOL or Sensar AR40e(both made by AMO).Three months after operation,the eyes underwent several tests including visual acuity,optometry and wavefront aberration examination.Mesopic contrast sensitivity test was measured with ROLAND BA-4 Contrastometer.Results: The eyes treated with Tecnis Z9001 had significantly less spherical aberration.The eyes treated with Tecnis IOL got lower C12 coefficient and RMS4 than those with Sensar AR40e(P value

Objective To evaluate the safety of simultaneous transurethral green laser vaporization therapy in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and nonmuscle-invasive bladder transitional cell carcinoma (NMIBT).Methods The clinical data of 27 patients (observation group) who had undergone simultaneous transurethral green laser vaporization therapy in BPH and NMIBT between May 2004 and October 2010 were analyzed retrospectively.Meanwhile 27 patients(control group) only had undergone green laser vaporization therapy in NMIBT during the same period were selected.Clinicopathologic parameters,rate of recurrence and progression,rate of recurrence in the bladder neck and prostatic urethra were determined and compared.Results The time of follow-up in observation group and control group were (28.61 ± 19.53) and (30.20 ± 21.46) months.The rates of recurrence,progression and recurrence in the bladder neck and prostatic urethra between observation group and control group had no significant differences [ 18.5％ (5/27) vs.25.9％ (7/27),3.7％ (1/27) vs.0,0 vs.0] (P ＞0.05).Conclusion Simultaneous transurethral green laser vaporization of NMIBT and BPH can be safely performed without increasing the risk of tumor recurrence in the prostatic urethra.

Objective To explore the relationship between meta-mood and learning adaptability of undergraduate nursing students in order to promote the students' academic achievement.Method 225 nursing students participated in the survey using the trait Meta-Mood Scale and the college students' learning adaptability scale.Results The average total scores on meta-mood and learning adaptability were(3.42±0.53)and(3.60±0.52),respectively.They were positively correlated and the 3 dimensions of meta-mood predicted the variance of learning adaptability by 12.7%.Conclusions The meta-mood of undergraduate nursing students is at moderate level,and learning adaptability is at a better level.The nursing administrations or educators should guide students to manage their moods so as to improve the students' learning adaptability.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the acute phase blood glucose and the severity and prognosis of stroke in patients with stroke. Methods One hundred seventy-three consecutive patients with acute stroke were randomly allocated into either a hyperglycemia group (n =72) or a normal group (n = 101) according to whether their random blood glucose levels were > 7.8 mmol/L or not. The average time from stroke onset to admis-sion was 6.5 ± 5.1 hours. The patients were evaluated by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Glasgow Coma Stroke (GCS) scores within 20 minutes after clinical reception, The plasma blood glucose detection and bead CT scan were completed in 40 minutes.The patients with cerebral infarction were classified according to the Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project (OCSP) criteria, and the survivors were evaluated by the modified Rankin scale (mRS) after 3 months. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in age, gender, vascular risk factors, stroke property and treatment principle. There were significant differences between the NIHSS and GCS at the first admission and the mRS scores at 3 months (P<0.01). The proportion of the patients with the history of diabetic mellitus in the random hyperglycemia group was significantly higher than that in the normal group (P<0.01).The random blood glucose levels were not correlated with the severity of stroke between the 2 groups of patients with the history of diabetes mellitus; the increased random blood glucose levels were significantly correlated with the severity and prognosis of stroke between the 2 groups of patients without the history of diabetes mellitus (P<0.01). Conclusions The increased blood glucose in patients with stroke without the history of diabetes mellitus in acute phase is an independent risk factor for the severity and prognosis. The increased random blood glucose in patients with stroke in acute phase may also suggest having the history of diabetes mellitus.

Objectlve To evaluate the clinical value of the detection of Myeobacterium tuberculosis (MTB)and its L-forms(MTB-L)in pefipheral blood.Methods MTB and MTB-L in blood samples of 156 patients with tuberculosis and 147 patients with lung cancer were detected by hemolysis centrifugal drop Intensified Kinyoun's acid fast staining (IK) and hemolysis centrifugal culture with 42 healthy persons as controls.MTB DNA was detected by TaqMan-PCR technique in plasma mononuclear cells and whole blood from aforementioned groups.Results Among each groups detected by IK.the MTB positive rate was 1.3%(2/156),0.7%(1/147),and 0%(0/42)respectively.The positive rate of culture was 0.6%(1/156),0%(0/147),and 0%(0/42)respectively.MTB-L positive rate detected by IK was 41.0%(64/156),32.7%(48/147)and 7.2%(3/42).MTB-L positive rate detected by culture was 25.6%(40/156)and 39.5%(58/147).0%(0/42).MTB positive rate were significantly different from the MTB-L positive rate (P＜0.01).Among the 98 strains L-forms,81 strains were from human,17 strains were from bovis,and 44 strains were back to the ancestors.The positive rate of mononuclear ceHs and whole blood obtained from the tuberculosis group detected by TaqMan-PCR were 77.6%(121/156) and 68.6%(107/156)(P＜0.05).The positive rate of mononuclear cells and whole blood from lung cancer group were 59.2%(87/147)and 48.3%(52/147)(P＜0.05),which were higher than the plasma positive rate 12.2%(18/147)(P＜0.05).The result of individual bloed constituents (except for plasma) from two groups were significantly different from the control(P＜0.01).Conclusions MTB-L was found in the peripheral blood of the tuberculosis and lung cancer patients.Hemolysis centrifugal culture is a rapid,simple and reliable method for detecting MTB-L TaqMan-PCR showed the positive rate of MTB DNA in plasma and whole blood samples were significantly higher than that in the plasma.
