Objective To understand the status of depression and quality of life in the patients with advanced gastric cancer , and to explore their relationship .Methods The depression self rating scale (SDS) and the Chinese Scale of World Health Organiza‐tion Quality of Life Scale‐Brief Form Questionnaire (WHOQOL‐BREF) were adopted to conduct the questionnaire investigation on 131 patients with advanced gastric cancer ,then the results were compared with those of the health population .Results Among 131 patients with advanced gastric cancer ,the prevalence rate of depression was 47 .33% ,and the average SDS score was 45 .99 ± 15 .47 ,which were higher than those of the health population .The scores of quality of life were 61 .61 ± 12 .66 for the physiologic health domain ,59 .54 ± 12 .49 for the mental health domain ,64 .95 ± 14 .16 for the social relation domain and 52 .93 ± 14 .07 for the surrounding environment domain .There was a significant correlation between the depression score with the four domains scores of life quality ,in which the correlation with the mental health domain was strongest (r= -0 .636 ,r2 =0 .405) .Conclusion High depression level and poor quality of life exist in the patients with advanced gastric cancer ,and there is a correlation between them , in which the correlation between depression with the mental health domain is strongest .

Objective To investigate the effects of the head peripheral nerve block on remifentanil consumption and postoperative pain in patients undergoing craniocerebral surgery. Methods 80 patients under general anesthesia undergoing supratentorial craniocerebral surgery were randomly divided into two groups:the head peripheral nerve block combined intravenous anesthesia group (group S, 40 cases) and the simple intravenous anesthesia group (group C, 40 cases). After anesthesia induction intubation, the patients in group S received the head peripheral nerve block with 0.596% ropivacaine mesylate injection,including supraorbital nerve, supratrochlear nerve , auriculotemporal nerve , great occipital nerve and lesser occipital nerve , as well as regional nerve on the corresponding position of the bilateral head nails. Haemodynamic index of the operations was measured;drug consumption during operation and VAS pain score at 0. 5, 2, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery were recorded. Results Compared with group C, the values of SBP, DBP, HR had a significant decrease at head-nail insertion and the latter stage in group S(P<0.05). The remifentanil consumption and VAS scores had a significant decrease in group S (P < 0.05). Conclution Head peripheral nerve block before operation could enhance anesthesic analgesia, reduce the remifentanil consumption and postoperative pain in patients undergoing craniocerebral surgery.

The paper reported a case of brachial artery ligation treatment of arteriovenous graft infection with arteriovenous graft exposure and bleeding. Based on the experience of vascular access center and the review of relevant literature, the causes and treatment options of this complication were analyzed, and the feasibility and safety of brachial artery ligation were elaborated for the treatment of this complication, to provide references for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
