Objective: To analyze the risk factors and the predictive value of LDL/HDL ratio in acute ischemic stroke recurrence.
Methods: A total of 143 patients with acute ischemic stroke treated in our hospital were studied. The patients were followed-up for 2 years, the risk factors and the predictive value of LDL/HDL ratio for stroke recurrence were analyzed.
Results: Single factor analysis indicated that lacunar infarction, hypertension, blood pressure, the levels of LDL, HDL, ratio of LDL/HDL, stroke scale score, life ability score were the risk factors of ischemic stroke recurrence. Multivariate analysis presented that hypertension, ratio of LDL/HDL, TG level were the independent risk factors for ischemic stroke recurrence. LDL and ratio of LDL/HDL were positively related to ischemic stroke recurrence, HDL was negatively related to ischemic stroke recurrence, P<0.05. The speciifcity and sensitivity of LDL/HDL for predicting ischemic stroke recurrence were at 81.16%and 95.65%respectively.
Conclusion: The predictive value of LDL/HDL ratio could help us to identify the patients with high risk of ischemic stroke recurrence which is important for the early clinical intervention.

Standardized patient(SP) is playing an important role in medical education.Nevertheless this kind of medical education is not perfect.By use of analyzing the shortcomings in internal medicine education by SP.the effect of SP education will be greatly increased.

AlM: To observe the early tear film changes after trabeculectomy using Keratograph 5M.METHODS:Fourty-one patients (46 eyes) of glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy were involved. First tear break up time ( FTBUT ) , average tear break up time (ATBUT), non-invasive tear meniscus height (NlTMH), lipid layer thickness and meibomian gland scores were measured at 1d preoperatively and at 1d, 1wk, 1mo postoperatively.RESULTS:At 1d, 1wk and 1mo postoperatively, FTBUT and ATBUT decreased greatly (P<0. 05), as well as lipid layer thickness (P<0. 017). NlTMH at 1d postoperatively increased significantly, but at 1wk and 1mo postoperatively decreased greatly (P<0. 05). There was no significantly difference in meibomian gland scores between preoperation and postoperation (P>0. 05). CONCLUSlON: Keratograph 5M could be used to evaluate tear film function rapidly and accurately. Trabeculectomy significantly alters tear film stability and tear secretion in the short term after operation.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of tension-free vaginal tape obturator tape(TVT-O)as treatment of SUI by means of a systematic review and meta analysis.Methods Using the search terms"TVT,TVT-O,SUI,RCT,TOT",the literature in Chinese and English from January 2001 tO March 2007 on the difference of TVT and TVT-O was searched from MEDLINE,PUBMED,EMBASE,Google Scholar,CNKI,WAN FANG DATA,and criteria randomized controlled trials(RCTs)were studied by Meta-analysis in RevMan 4.2.At the same time,Ors of randomized model and fixed model were calculated tO evaluate the sensitivity.Results There were six RCTs that compared TVT-O with TVT.When compared by Subjective cure,TVT-O at 1-17 months were no better than TVT(OR 0.67;95% CI 0.40,1.13).Adverse events such as bladder injuries (OR 0.15;95% CI 0.03,0.66)was less common,where as groin/thigh pain(OR 8.61;95% CI3.03,24.52)was more common;but there were rio significant difference in de novo urgency(OR=1.16;95% CI 0.54,2.47),urinary retention(OR=0.54;95% CI 0.24,1.20)or urinary tract infection(OR=1.07;95% CI 0.61,1.87)between the tWO groups.Conclusions There is no significant difference between TVT and TVT-O.TVT-O group had no bladder injuries complications,but groin/thigh pain was more common.

[ABSTRACT]OBJECTIVETo explore the efficacy and safety of localization for parathyroid glands with intravenous low dosage of methylene blue in thyroidectomy. METHODSWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 41 patients who suffered from thyroid papillary carcinoma between Aug, 2014 and Jan, 2015 (9 males and 32 females, with a median age of 46 years). Thirty eight patients underwent primary thyroidectomy and 3 patients underwent second operation. A variety of thyroidectomy was performed in all patients, and who also underwent intravenous (3-4) mg/kg methylene blue in operation. RESULTSEighty four parathyroid glands were stained. Among 39 patients who's parathyroid glands were stained, the mean dyeing time was (31.27±9.41) min. Dyeing rates and dyeing time were not significantly different between 3 mg/kg group and 4 mg/kg group (t=0.24 and 0.20, all P>0.05). None of patients had the hypoparathyroidism problem such as peri-oral numbness, tingling, muscle aches and spasms. According to postoperative monitoring of parathyroid hormone, all of patients had no permanent hypofunction of the parathyroid gland. Neurotoxic effects and other serious side effects were not observed in all patients. CONCLUSIONIntravenous low-dose methylene blue in thyroidectomy is a safe, easy, and effective technique that facilitates rapid identification of parathyroid gland.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of tiotropium bromide combined with budesonide formoterol in the treatment of severe bronchial asthma in adults. METHODS:A total of 110 adult patients with severe bronchial asthma were selected from our hospital during Mar. 2013-Mar. 2016 were divided into control group and observation group according to random number table,with 55 cases in each group. Control group was given Budesonide formoterol powder for inhalation,2 inhalations each time,bid;observation group was additionally given Tiotropium bromide powder for inhalation 18 μg,qd,on the basis of con-trol group. Both groups were treated for 6 months. Clinical efficacies as well as ACT scores,respiration function indexes and the times of acute attack of asthma before and after treatment,the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups. RESULTS:The efficiency rate and total response rate of observation group were 54.55% and 96.36%,which were significantly higher than 32.73%,78.18% in control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in ACT scores,respiration function indexes or the times of acute attack of asthma between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,ACT scores of 2 groups were significantly higher than before treatment;FEV1,FEV1/FVC and PEF were significantly greater than be-fore treatment,PEFR was significantly lower than before treatment;and the indexes in observation group was significantly better than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). 1,3,6 months after treatment,the times of acute attack of asthma in 2 groups were significantly less than before treatment,and that in observation group was significantly less than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The incidence of ADR in observation group was 20.00%,and there was no statistical signifi-cance compared to 14.55% of control group(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Tiotropium bromide combined with budesonide formoter-ol in the treatment of severe bronchial asthma in adults can effectively relieve the severity of disease,improve respiration function, reduce the times of acute attack of asthma,and have good therapeutic efficacy and safety.
