Objective To describe the depression of premature infants′ mothers and discuss the related influence factors. Methods A total of 86 premature infants′ mothers completed Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale at 3-days postpartum in this descriptive study during August 2014 to January 2015 in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University. Results The prevalence of postpartum depression in premature infants′ mothers was 25.6% (22/86). Educational levels, family support, character, and number of abortion of mothers, pregnancy complication, gestational age, birth weight, Apgar score, length of hospitalization, and birth with abnormalities of premature infants were found significantly associated with postpartum depression (P<0.05). By Logistic regression, family support (OR=3.253, 95% CI=1.180-8.966) and length of hospitalization (OR=2.905, 95% CI=1.418-5.952) were the risk factors of the postpartum depression at 3-days after delivery. Conclusions Premature infants′mothers at 3-days postpartum presented with obvious postpartum depression. Psychological intervention should be focused on its influence factors.

Objective To establish a simple and rapid method for the determination of 1,3-dideoxygalactonojirimycin in Bombycis Faeces, a potent glucosidase inihibitor, by HPLC. Methods A RP-HPLC method with fluorescence detection has been developed. Results The HPLC method developed in this research has a good reliability including accuracy and precision. The detection limit was less than 72 ng. Conclusion This method is sufficiently sensitive for determining 1,3-dideoxygalactonojirimycin in Bombycis Faeces and other related products.

ObjectiveTo investigate rational surgical approaches for Siewert type Ⅰ adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG),and analyze the prognostic factors.MethodsThe clinical data of 103 patients with Siewert type Ⅰ AEG who were admitted to the Renji Hospital from January 2005 to December 2009 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into transthoracic approach group (61 patients) and thoracoabdominal approach group (42 patients).The incidences of numbers of lymph node dissected and postoperative complications of the 2 groups were compared using the chi-square test,Fisher exact probability or the t test.The survival curve was drawn by the Kaplan-Meier method and the survival was analyzed using the Log-rank test.Prognostic factors were analyzed using the one-way analysis of variance and Cox regression model.ResultsNo perioperative death was observed in the 2 groups.There were significant differences in the number of lymph node dissected and number of metastatic lymph node between the 2 groups (t =2.18,2.29,P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no significant difference in splenic injury between the 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05 ).There were no significant differences in postoperative bleeding,anastomotic fistula and stricture,esophagogastric reflux,pulmonary infection and esteomyelitis between the 2 groups (x2 =0.07,0.94,0.22,1.41,0.17,P＞0.05).Of the 103 patients,97(94.2％) were followed up.The mean postoperative survival time was 26 months.The median survival time was 26 months,and the 3-yearsurvival rate was 35.9％.The 3-year survival rates of transthoracic approach group and thoracoabdominal approach group were 32.8％ and 40.2％,with no significant difference between the 2 groups ( x2 =0.37,P ＞ 0.05).The results of univariate analysis showed that radical or palliative resection,TNM stage,lymph node metastasis stage,tumor diameter and metastasis rate,degree of radical resection were independent factors influencing the prognosis of patients with Siewert type Ⅰ AEG (x2 =21.07,26.04,22.42,6.26,32.20,20.80,P＜0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that degree of TNM stage,lymph node metastasis rate and radical resection were independent factors influencing the prognosis of patients ( Wald =12.01,8.75,10.03,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Thoracoabdominal approach is a reasonable selection for patients with Siewert type I AEG.Degree of TNM stage,lymph node metastasis rate and radical resection were independent risk factors influencing the prognosis of patients.

Acupoints are surface reaction and treatment spots under the pathological conditions which have functions of diagnosis and treatment. For the study of acupoints, we can carry it out from the aspects of structure and function. The two aspects have a close relationship. Structure is the material basis of function, while function is the manifesta-tion of structure. Therefore, the study of acupoints is not only significant to reveal the essence of acupoint, but also has enormous value in the guidance of acu-moxibustion for clinical practice. Staring from the normality of structure and variability of function, we explored the essence of acupoints, and further revealed ordered regulation rule and its biological basis, so that the essence of acupuncture points will be illustrated with scientific evidences.

Objective To observe the efficacy of pregabalin in the treatment of painful diabeticperipheral neuropathy.Methods In a 8-week study,50 patients were randomly assigned into two groups:the therapy group and the control group.The patients in the therapy group were treated with pregabalin 150 mg/d,and the patients in the control group were treated with carbamazepine 200 mg/d.The dose of pregabalin was increased to 300 mg/d till pain was alleviated in the therapy group,and the dose of carbamazepine was increased to 600 mg/d till pain was alleviated in the control group.The therapeutic effect and VAS score in the two groups were observed and evaluated.Results After 1 and 8 weeks' treatment,the therapeutic effect of therapy group were significantly superior to the control group ( At 1 week:U =2.028,P =0.046 ; At 8 week:U =3.540,P ＜0.001 ).After 1 and 8 weeks' treatment,the VAS scores of therapy group were significantly lower than the control group ( At 1 week:5.13 ± 1.76 vs.6.74 ± 1.52,P ＜ 0.05 ; At 8 week:1.13 ± 0.45 vs 3.27 ± 1.04,P ＜ 0.05).There were 5 patients (20％) and 10 patients (40％) had adverse reaction in the therapy and the control groups respectively.Conclusion Pregabalin is effective and safe for the treatment of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Objective To evaluate the clinic efficacy of sufentanil and remifentanil by target- controlled infusion (TCI) combined with propofol in patients undergoing endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA).Methods Sixty patients,ASA Ⅰ ～ Ⅱ,undergoing elective EBUS-TBNA were randomly divided into group S ( sufentanil group),group R (remifentanil group) and group SR (sufentanil + remifentanil group),each group were twenty patients.The anesthesia of all groups is propofol intravenous anesthesia with 2％ lidocaine topical anesthesia,to controll BIS between 50 and 60 during surgery.Heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP) pulse oxygen saturation( SpO2 ) and respiratory rate (RR) were recorded and compared 5mins after entering room(T0),30mins after the beginning of surgery(T1 ) and after surgery(T3).Arterial blood gas and the times of cough during surgery were also recorded and compared in all groups.The use of propofol and lidocaine,the wake-up time,satisfaction with anesthesia and adverse reactions in 6 hrs after surgery were also obtained.Results ( 1 ) RR decreased distinctly in group R and PaCO2 increased distinctly in group S and group R compared with that of group SR (P ＜0.05) during surgery.(2)The times of cough and the wake-up time lessened distinctly in group R and group SR compared with that of group S ( P ＜0.05 ).(3) The use of propofol and lidocaine,satisfaction with anesthesia and adverse reactions in 6 hrs after surgery were similar in all groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Sufentanil compounded remifentanil by TCI combined with propofol is a safe and feasible anesthesia option for EBUS-TBNA,which provides better efficacy,high satisfaction and less side effects compared with using alone of sufentanil and remifentanil respectively.
