Objective To investigate the clinical values of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) detection in the diagnosis of rheumatic diseases .Methods 965 patients with rheumatic diseases were taken as rheumatic group ,including 256 cases of SLE , 124 of mixed connective tissue disease(MCTD) ,336 of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) ,166 of Sjogren′s Syndrome(SS) ,45 of systemic sclerosis(SSc) and 38 of dermatomyositis .400 healthy people were served as the control group .Indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) was employed to detect the cytoplasmic ANCA (c-ANCA ) ,perinuclear ANCA (p-ANCA ) .Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was utilized to assay the anti-myeloperoxidase(MPO) antibody among patients with positive ANCA .Results Difference of positive rates of serum ANCA of subjects in rheumatic group and control group showed statistical significance (P<0 .01) ,and the differences of positive rates of serum p-ANCA and c-ANCA of subjects with positive ANCA between the two group were also sta-tistically significant(P<0 .01) .The positive rate of serum p-ANCA of patients with SLE was markedly higher than those with MCTD ,RA ,SS ,SSc ,dermatomyositis and healthy people in control group (P< 0 .05) ,while that of patients with MCTD was obviously higher than those with RA ,SS ,SSc ,dermatomyositis and healthy people in control group (P<0 .05) .The positive rate of anti-MPO antibody of 165 patients with positive ANCA in rheumatic group was 58 .4% ,which was significantly higher than that in control group(3% )(P<0 .01) .The positive rate of patients with positive ANCA and impaired renal function in rheumatic group was 55 .4% ,which was obviously higher than those of patients with negative ANCA in rheumatic group (21 .8% ) and control group (6 .25% )(P<0 .01) .Conclusion Serum ANCA detection is of important significance for prevention of nephrotoxic damage in pa-tients with rheumatic diseases .

Objective To study the difference on knowledge-attitude-practice about rational drug use in tumor patients between urban and rural in Shanxi province, and to provide evidence for further development on health education of rational drug use. Methods A questionnaire investigation was conducted among tumor inpatients in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from May 22 in 2014 to May 30 in 2014. Results A total of 990 tumor patients were involved, including 499 urban patients accounting for 50.4 % and 491 rural patients accounting for 49.6 %. The tumor patients′awareness rates of 'the purchase of antibiotics needs a prescription' in urban and rural areas were the highest, 74.9 % (374/499) and 67.0 % (329/491), respectively, and the awareness rates of 'the meaning of OTC on the medicine package' were the lowest, 22.0 % (110/499) and 18.1 % (89/491), respectively. 96.2%(480/499) urban and 92.7%(455/491) rural tumor patients had developed a correct attitude towards 'irrational drug use will affect health and even life-threatening' which ranked the highest, and the rates of correct attitude towards 'adverse drug reaction is the medical accident' were the lowest, 55.5 %(277/499) and 48.1 % (236/491), respectively. The correct behavior rates of 'read the drug instructions' in urban and rural tumor patients were the highest, 97.8% (488/499) and 95.1 % (467/491), respectively, and the correct behavior rates of 'the expired drug recovery to nearby regular pharmacy' were the lowest, 9.2 %(46/499) and 7.5 % (37/491), respectively. Conclusions The knowledge-attitude-practice about rational drug among urban and rural tumor patients in Shanxi province is not optimistic. It should be provided that individual health education in daily work in order to promote rational drug use, prolong survival time and improve the quality of life for tumor patients.

Objective:To investigate the change of microalbuminuria (MA) in patients with RA and its clinical significance.Methods:From January 2018 to December 2019, data of 75 cases of RA patients were collected from outpatient and inpatient wardsof our hospital, and the data of 75 cases of physical examination wascollected as control. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP) anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody, blood lipid, Homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-CCP antibodyand MA levels were measured respectively. RA patients were obtained by ultrasound Carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) and brachial artery flow mediated diastolic function (FMD) were measured. The statistical analysis was carried out with independent t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson correlation analysis and multiple stepwise regression. Results:The MA level of RA patients was significantly higher than that of the healthy control group [(31±5) mg/L vs (25±4) mg/L, t=5.982, P<0.05]. In RA patients, MA level was positively correlated with course of disease ( r=0.327, P=0.015), HOMA-IR ( r=0.576, P<0.01], CRP ( r=0.212, P=0.027), RF ( r=0.585, P<0.01), disease activity score in 28 joints (DAS28) ( r=0.472, P=0.013), cIMT ( r=0.611, P<0.01) and duration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) use ( r=0.274, P<0.01), and urineMA level( OR=1.763, P<0.01) were independent correlation factors affecting cIMT. Conclusion:The level of MA in RA patients is significantly higher than that in normal controls, and is correlated with disease activity and subclinical atherosclerosis, which could be another important predictor of disease follow-up and early screening of subclinical atherosclerosis in RA patients.

Objective:To explore the quality of life of patients with advanced lung cancer and its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 220 patients with advanced lung cancer in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from June 2017 to June 2019 were selected. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core-30 (QLQ-C30) and Quality and Life Questionnaire of Lung Cancer (QLQ-LC13) were used to evaluate the quality of life of patients. Combined with the clinicopathological data of the patients, multiple linear regression method was used to analyze the factors affecting the quality of life of patients with advanced lung cancer.Results:A total of 220 questionnaires were issued, and 184 (83.6%) valid questionnaires were returned. There were 102 cases (55.4%) of male and 82 cases (44.6%) of female. Among the 5 functional areas of QLQ-C30, the score of social function was low [(60.2±11.8) points], and the score of cognitive function was high [(78.5±13.4) points]; among the 3 symptom areas, the score of pain was high [(36.8±10.3) points]; among the 6 single items, the lack of appetite was more serious [(58.5±10.5) points]. Among the 10 symptom areas of QLQ-LC13, shortness of breath and cough were more prominent [(34.6±9.5) points and (33.6±6.8) points]. The quality of life of female patients, patients with older age, patients with fewer children, patients with more organ metastases, patients with other diseases and patients with chemotherapy was poor (all P < 0.05), while there was no correlation between smoking status, occupation and education level and the quality of life of advanced lung cancer patients (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:The quality of life of advanced lung cancer patients is closely related to gender, age, the number of children, the number of metastatic organs, with or without diseases and treatment methods. Targeted intervention measures are helpful to improve the quality of life of patients.
