Objective To explore the factors influencing health management demand by community residents.Methods Using data from the survey of Health Management Demand by Community Residents in Hangzhou,this paper examined the influence factors with the logistic model from such four aspects as individual characteristics,economic characteristics,health level and health awareness.Results The health awareness poses a positive impact on health management demand;the level of health has a negative impact while income has an inflection point(5 000 yuan per month).However,individual characteristics have no significant effect. Conclusion Such measures as enhancing health management awareness of the residents,building a health management system centering on communities and supported by health management firms,and building health management information platform,can effectively satisfy such demand.

Sepsis is a common desease with a high mortality in pediatric intensive care unit. The patho-genesis of sepsis remains unclear. Recent studies have found that extracellular histones play an important role in the incidence of sepsis. This review provides new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis.

Objective To build new management model for diabetic foot disease,and to observe the therapeutic effect of diabetic foot ulcers under the new model.Methods 52 patients with newly diagnosed diabetic foot disease were recruited and randomly divided into the experimental group (n=26) and the control group (n=26).While the experimental group adopted the interdisciplinary collaboration model (nurse-doctor jointed diabetes care management model),the control group were treated by the single department pattern.The foot ulcer healing rate,average length of stay (ALOS),fasting plasma glucose (FPG),2 h postprandial blood glucose (2 h PBG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c),and the patient awareness of the knowledge about diabetes self-management were respectively compared at 3 and 6 months.Results After receiving a multidisciplinary joint diagnosis and treatment,FPG and 2 h PBG of the patients from the experimental group [(6.44±2.93)mmol/L,(8.52± 2.09)mmol/L] were significantly decreased than those of the patients from the control group [(8.17±3.19)mmol/L,(10.77±3.27)mmol/L].HbA1c at 3 and 6 months (7.2％,7.7％) and ulcer recurrence rate (3.8％) after 6 months of patients of the experimental group were significantly reduced than those of the control group(8.9％,9.1％ and 15.4％).When compared with patients of the control group,patients of varying severity in the experimental group showed significantly shortened ulcer healing time and hospital stay.Moreover,patients from the experimental group showed statistically higher knowledge level and self management ability (P＜0.05).Conclusion Through interdisciplinary collaboration,podiatric medical joint management model can significantly improve cure rate,shorten ALOS,improve blood sugar control and patient satisfaction.

Objective To investigate the safety,efficacy and effects of emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients from Second Affiliated Hospital,Medical College,Zhejiang University with cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Method Twenty-seven patients with CS complicating with AMI were treated by PCI with intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) support.The change of hemodynamics before and after IABP and PCI,the characteristics of PCI,the mortality during hospitalization, the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and left ventricular ejection fraction at 30-day follow-up were observed.Results The hemodynamics were significantly improved after IABP.No patients died during PCI.Two patients died after PCI and the total mortality was 7.4% in hospital.During the period of 30-day follow-up, one patient died of heart failure.The left ventricular ejection fraction greatly improved at 30 days after PCI. Conclusions The data suggested that the use of IABP during PCI in patients with CS complicating AMI was safe, decreased mortality and improved prognosis.

OBJECTIVE:To summarizethe application of polypropylene repair material in treating inguinal hernia.METHODS:Papers regarding polypropylene repair material in treating inguinal hernia published in VIP data between January 1998 and October 2009 were researched using key words of "polypropylene,inguinal hernia,and complication".Inclusion criteria Repairing inguinal hernia using polypropylene materials.Experimental results concerning related complications.Exclusion criteria:repetitive study and relatively old literature.A total of 17 documents were included in this study.RESULTS:Organic polymeric materials were clinical utilized in repairing inguinal hernia at the end of 1950s.The polypropylene patch was knitted by slngle fiber or multi-strands fibers of polypropylene,and exhibited single layer network structures,which is preferred material for repairing abdominal-wall defect.Compared with other unabsorble materials,the polypropylene patch had following advantage:obviously stimulating fibroplasias; easy permeated by fibrous tissues and embedded into tissues; maintaining highly tensile strength following implantation; and relative low cost.Few material-related complications occurred following repairing,mainly presented with infection,serofiuid swelling,ankylenteron,intestinal leakage,material displacement,as well as material shrinkage.CONCLUSION:Polypropylene material is an ideal repair material due to good histocompatibility,few rejections,and anti-infection capability.It leads to easy operation,small trauma,fast recovery and few complications in repairing defects.
