In order to discover some sensitive parameters of eight diastolic function indexes and establish the discriminant equation, twenty-three patients with coronary heart disease (CAD) and eighteen normal adults were studied by radionuclide, Doppler and apexcardiography. The results showed that eight indexes were signicantly different between CAD and normal groups. The discriminant equation was: Z=0.21X1+23.86X2-22.88X3-0.18X4+2.83X5+ 2.06X6+66.86X7+1.66X8. The discriminant score was 42.99. The discriminant function was 100%. The contributive rates of eight indexes were Ev/Av, 1/3FF, A/E-O, PFR, DATI, EDC, IRT ;and l/3FFd from large to small value, respectively. It is concluded that Doppler Ev/Av is the most sensitive diastolic function index of CAD.

Objective To analyze the cost-effectiveness of integrated pharmaceutical care (IPC) in community-based patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods The COPD patients were divided randomly into intervention group (group A,n =79) and control group (group B,n =71).Group A received the IPC intervention measures,including serial lectures of pharmaceutical knowledge,home supervision and web-based communications for while group B group had none.Results As compared with group B,group A obviously improved on the knowledge of pharmaceutical treatment effect and side effect (95.1％,67.4％ vs.63.1％,21.9％,x2 =12.445,P=0.000 vs.x2 =55.557,P=0.000).There were notable differences between two groups [ ( 1.77 ± 1.23 ) vs.( 2.42 ± 1.66 ) s,t =2.583,P=0.011],pulmonary rales [ (0.01 vs.0.01)s,Z =2.370,P=0.018],6-min walk distance (6 MWD) [ (457 ± 67 ) vs.(425 ± 72) m,t =2.760,P =0.007 ],vital capacity ( VC ) [ ( 1.60 ± 0.25 ) vs.( 1.49 ± 0.23 ) L,t =2.718,P =0.007 ) ] andquality-of-life items ( 48 ± 10 vs.52 ± 11,t =2.624,P =0.010) after intervention.Analyze of cost-effectiveness show that groupA was superior to group B [ total effect total cost(TE/TC =764.6/4936,15.49％ )vs.(TE/TC =1509.4/4708),32.06％,x2 =6.183,P ＜ 0.01 ].Conclusion IPC can improve the disease condition and achieve excellent cost-effectiveness for community-based COPD patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between CIDE-B change and apoptosis by detecting expression of CIDE-B gene and protein under various injuring conditions(firearm injury and in- cision injury)and comparing neuronal apoptosis.Methods A total of 108 New Zealand rabbits were randomized into firearm injury group,incision injury group and control group.Samples were harvested at different time points after injury for measuring CIDE-B mRNA expression level by RT-PCR,demonstrating morphological distribution of CIDE-B mRNA by in situ hybridization and determining CIDE-B protein level by Western blot.Results Following nerve injury,CIDE-B mRNA expression in spinal cord was en- hanced markedly in the firearm injury group,increased from at day 1,reached peak at day 7,lasted for two weeks and declined after four weeks.CIDE-B mRNA expression was increased late,with small range in the incision injury group.The changes in CIDE-B protein level accorded with those in CIDE-B mRNA level.There was slight CIDE-B mRNA expression,distributing in spinal cord neuronal cytoplasma,in spinal cord tissues in the control group.Conclusions Following peripheral nerve injury,expressions of CIDE-B mRNA and protein are enhanced in spinal cord neurons and distributed in the grey matter of spi- nal cord.Such enhancement is more marked after firearm injury than incision injury.

Objective The survey aimed to investigate the self-efficacy of permanent colostomy patients at different stages,and explore its impact factors.Methods A total of 267 cases of permanent colostomy patients at different stages (postoperative hospital stay,postoperative chemotherapy and home rehabilitation),coming from many domestic top three hospitals were investigated using the general information questionnaire,C-COH,the Stoma Self-Efficacy Scale,and Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS).Results The total score of self-efficacy of 267 colostomy patients was (75.97 ± 23.92),ranked in the middle level,and it showed a rising tendency at postoperative hospitalization,postoperative chemotherapy and home rehabilitation.The influencing factors of self-efficacy of the patients at postoperative hospitalization included psychological well-being,BMI and age the regression coefficients were 7.126,1.512 and-0.281.the influencing factors of self-efficacy of the patients at postoperative chemotherapy included psychological well-being,age,the proportion of medical insurance,living state and caregiver,the regression coefficients were 5.182,-0.726,0.238,7.993 and 6.083; the influencing factors of self-efficacy of the patients at home rehabilitation included spiritual well-being,social support,self-care degree,gender and the monthly cost of ostomy supplies,the regression coefficients were 7.215,-7.820,-9.616 and-4.762.Conclusions The influencing factors of self-efficacy of permanent colostomy patients at different stages was different,the medical staff should assess and screen the high-risk factors of self-efficacy positively,according to the individual circumstance and stage,to formulate the individualized intervention measures,so as to enhance the patients' self-confidence to deal with and manage the disease,thereby increasing the level of self-efficacy.

Objective To assess the value of thickness and arterial resistive index (RI) of wrist synovium in differentiation from activity to non-activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Ninety-two clinically confirmed RA patients underwent high frequency ultrasonography. Maximum thickness and arterial RI of the wrist synovium were measured in active and nonactive stage. Results Thickened synovium was found in 75 of 92 patients. Color signal in the synovium was detected and then RI was measured in 67 patients, including 31 in active stage and 36 in nonactive stage. The wrist synovium thickness of 67 patients was (2.97±1.49) mm and arterial RI was 0.74±0.17. RI decreased significantly in patients in active stage compared with that in nonactive stage (P<0.001). Conclusion Arterial RI measurement with high frequency ultrasonography may be served as an objective marker of synovial membrane disease in RA. The thickness of synovium cannot predict the activity of RA.

Objective To study the accuracy of preoperative planning and postoperative satisfaction of prosthesis posi?tion by applying the personal surgical cutting guide (PSCG) to total knee arthroscopy (TKA) based on 3D printing technique. Meth?ods In this randomized study, 20 patients were selected from August 2014 to October 2015, who were randomly divided into two groups. In PSCG group, 4 males and 6 females were enrolled, with a mean age of 70.9±6.69 (from 59 to 78) years. In con?ventional instrumentation group, 2 males and 8 females were enrolled, with a mean age of 69.9 ± 6.35 (from 58 to 77) years. The conventional instrumentation group was treated with conventional TKA, while the PSCG group was treated with personal surgical cutting guides. Then the knee valgus angle of patients, the angle between prosthesis components on the coronal and the sagittal plane of two groups were evaluated. Subsequently the correlation of the actual osteotomy amount, the valgus angle, caster angle, external rotation angle between intra? and preoperative planning were compared in the PSCG group. Results Compared with the ideal value of each angle, the mean deviation of the hip?knee?ankle angle 0.77°±0.51°, frontal femoral compo?nent angle 0.37° ± 0.53° and frontal tibial component angle 0.11° ± 0.24° showed statistically significant difference between two groups (P<0.05). The mean deviation of the lateral femoral component angle and the lateral tibial component angle (respectively 8.26°±0.85°, 0.71°±0.77°) were smaller than that of the conventional instrumentation group, while the differences all had no statis?tically significant difference (P>0.05). The actual osteotomy amount, the valgus angle, caster angle, external rotation angle corre?lated well between intra?and preoperative planning (t=-2.547, 3.864, 0.537,-0.040,-1.290, P>0.05). Conclusion TKA assist?ed by PSCG can make lower extremity alignment and accuracy of prosthesis implantation more accurate compared with convention?al TKA, especially in hip?knee?ankle angle, frontal femoral component angle and frontal tibial component angle.

BACKGROUND:At present, there are many researches about repairing articular cartilage defects. In particular, the microfracture technique has been widely used. OBJECTIVE:To observe recovery of knee joint motor function and morphological changes in tissue repair during articular cartilage defects with different directions (coronal position and sagittal position). METHODS:Articular cartilage fracture models with 2 mm-thick medial femoral condyles of rabbit knee joint were established. According to incision directions, models were assigned to coronal and sagittal groups. At 5, 10 and 20 weeks after model induction, general observation was performed. Specimens were sliced into paraffin sections, and subjected to hematoxylin-eosin staining and col agen staining. Tissue repair at the articular cartilage defects was observed using optical microscope and immunohistochemical method. After model induction, range of motion of rabbit joints was regularly examined in the two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A white line was seen across the femoral condyles at defects in the two groups. Articular surface at defect repair was at the level of in situ cartilage, and reached a bone union. Knee joint treated by operation did not affect function. Under light microscope, partial reconstruction of subchondral bone was seen in the two groups, mainly fibrocartilage repair. The level of bony remodeling was lower than tidal line of adjacent in situ cartilage. Immunohistochemical method exhibited that type I col agen staining gradual y reduced at defects of specimens, but type II col agen staining gradual y increased. These results suggested that there was no significant difference in the recovery of motor function of knee joint and the repair of articular cartilage with different directions (coronal and sagittal position).
