Objective:To explore the risk factors of unplanned readmission in patients with acute myocardial infarction, and to construct a risk prediction model.Methods:This study used cross-sectional survey method. A total of 270 acute myocardial infarction patients admitted from Tianjin Union Medical Cencer from March 2020 to March 2021 were evaluated in a cardiology department. We used the electronic medical record system to collect the patients′ data. Patients were divided into two groups according to the occurrence of readmission within 1 year or not. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors and formulated prediction model.Results:Totally 81 patients (30%) were readmitted. Binary Logistic regression model showed that the independent influencing factors of unplanned readmission in acute myocardial infarction patients included smoking ( X1), hypertension ( X2), marital status ( X3), hospitalization days ( X4), percutaneous coronary intervention ( X5), and heart failure ( X6). Area under ROC curve was 0.840, the maximum value of the Youden index was 0.560, and the sensitivity was 85.2%, the specificity was 70.8%, and the cutoff value was 0.377. Prediction model expression of unplanned readmission risk in patients with acute myocardial infarction was Logit(p/1-p)=-4.012+1.172 X1+1.104 X2+0.992 X3+0.118 X4+1.191 X5+1.093 X6. Conclusions:The risk prediction model of unplanned readmission in patients with acute myocardial infarction established in this article was with a good predictive effect, and it could be used in early identification of those patients with high-risk in unplanned readmission. At the same time, combined with the risk factors of depression, targeted intervention measures can be formulated.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and functional improvement of masseter-to-facial nerve transfer for patients who acquired a proximal iniury to the facial nerve and preliminary determine the influence factors for recovery.Methods From January,2015 to May,2016,the clinical data of 6 patients with facial paralysis underwent nerve anastomosis were analyzed retrospectively.These patients were required to come back to the hospital for a check every 3 months,in order to evaluate their facial nerve function.House-Brackmnann(H-B)grading was used to evaluate the pre-oerative,post-operative and follow-up status.The masseter-to-facial nerve anastomosis was performed in all the 6 patients.Results All patients were followed-up.The mean time of follow-up was 16 months (ranged from 6 to 23 months).Among 6 cases,the facial nerve function was improved in 5 cases,unchanged in 1 case.The postoperative H-B grades were Ⅱ in 3 cases,Ⅲ in 2 cases.The improvement of facial paralysis was most significant for orbicularis muscles,followed by the orbicularis oculi muscles,and the worst was the improvement of frontal muscles.Conclusion Masseter-to-facial nerve transfer anatomosis is a useful treatment for facial paralysis and can improve the facial function.

ObjectiveTo assess the value of passive leg raising (PLR) test in predicting fluid responsiveness in patients with sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction.Methods A prospective observational cohort study was conducted. Thirty-eight patients under mechanical ventilation suffering from sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction admitted to Department of Surgical Intensive Care Unit of First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from September 2013 to July 2014 were enrolled. The patients were studied in four phases: before PLR (semi-recumbent position with the trunk in 45°), PLR (the lower limbs were raised to a 45° angle while the trunk was in a supine position), before volume expansion (VE, return to the semi-recumbent position), and VE with infusing of 250 mL 5% albumin within 30 minutes. Hemodynamic parameters were recorded in every phase. The patients were classified into two groups according to their response to VE: responders (at least a 15% increase in stroke volume,ΔSVVE≥15%), and non-responders. The correlations among all changes in hemodynamic parameters were analyzed by linear correlation analysis, and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted to assess the value of hemodynamic parameters before and after PLR in predicting fluid responsiveness.Results Of 38 patients, 25 patients were responders, and 13 non-responders. There was no significant difference in the baseline and hemodynamic parameters at semi-recumbent position between the two groups. The changes in SV and cardiac output (CO) after PLR (ΔSVPLR andΔCOPLR) were significantly higher in responders than those of non-responders [ΔSVPLR: (14.7±5.7)%vs. (6.4±5.3)%,t = 4.304,P = 0.000;ΔCOPLR: (11.2±7.5)% vs. (3.4±2.3)%,t = 3.454,P = 0.001], but there was no significant difference in the changes in systolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, pulse pressure, and heart rate after PLR (ΔSBPPLR,ΔMAPPLR,ΔPPPLR andΔHRPLR) between two groups.ΔSVVE in responders was significantly higher than that of the non-responders [(20.8±5.5) % vs. (5.0±3.7) %,t = 8.347,P = 0.000]. It was shown by correlation analysis thatΔSVPLR was positively correlated withΔSVVE (r = 0.593,P = 0.000),ΔCOPLR was positively correlated withΔSVVE (r = 0.494,P = 0.002). The area under ROC curve (AUC) ofΔSVPLR≥8.1% for predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.860±0.062 (P = 0.000), with sensitivity of 92.0% and specificity of 70.0%; the AUC ofΔCOPLR≥5.6% for predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.840±0.070 (P = 0.000), with sensitivity of 84.0%and specificity of 76.9%; the AUC ofΔMAPPLR≥6.9% for predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.662±0.089, with sensitivity of 68.0% and specificity of 76.9%; the AUC ofΔSBPPLR≥6.4% for predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.628±0.098, with sensitivity of 76.0% and specificity of 61.5%; the AUC ofΔPPPLR≥6.2% for predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.502±0.094, with sensitivity of 56.0% and specificity of 53.8%; the AUC ofΔHRPLR≥-1.7%for predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.457±0.100, with sensitivity of 56.0% and specificity of 46.2%.Conclusion In patients with sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction, changes in SV and CO induced by PLR are accurate indices for predicting fluid responsiveness, but the changes in HR, MAP, SBP and PP cannot predict the fluid responsiveness.

Objective To explore the effects of mirror therapy on the lower-limb muscles of hemiplegic stroke survivors. Methods Sixty-two hemiplegic stroke survivors were divided by stratified random grouping into a mirror group and a control group, each of 31. Both groups accepted routine rehabilitation training, while the mirror group was additionally provided with mirror therapy to train the non-paretic limb for 30 min per day, 5 days a week, lasting 4 weeks. Before and after the 4 weeks of training, integrated electromyography was performed and the maximum voluntary contraction force (MVC) of the tibialis anterior, rectus femoris and biceps femoris of the paretic limb were recorded and compared. Results Compared with before the training, the average root mean square values of the electromyographs and the average MVCs of all three muscles had improved significantly in both groups after training. Compared with the control group, the improvements were significantly greater in the mirror group. Conclusion Mirror therapy can promote the activation and synchronization of motor units, as well as increase the number discharging and the total discharge, promoting the recovery of muscle strength.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum NLR and SII levels and postmenopausal osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) and to analyze the short-term prognostic value.Methods:A total of 132 patients with postmenopausal OVCF admitted to our hospital from Dec. 2018 to Dec. 2021 were selected as the study group, and 98 patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis but did not suffer from OVCF were selected as the control group. According to the recurrence of postmenopausal OVCF fractures, the ROC curves of NLR and SII were plotted, and their prognostic value for postmenopausal osteoporosis OVCF was analyzed.Results:NLR level was 2.96±0.41 and STI level was 39.41±23.45 in the control group. The level of NLR was 3.42±0.32 and SII was 431.77±31.14 in the research group ( P<0.05) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that lumbar bone density ( OR=0.030, 95%CI: 0.001-0.832, P=0.042) , NLR level ( OR=29.43, 95%CI: 9.840-103.6, P=0.001) and SII level ( OR=1.048, 95%CI: 1.034-1.066, P=0.001) were all risk factors affecting postmenopausal OVCF. NLR (3.77±0.22) and SII (441.32±29.68) in the recurrent fracture group were higher than NLR (3.27±0.22) and SII (426.87±30.57) in the non-recurrent fracture group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05) , multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed lumbar spine bone density ( OR=8.56×10 4, 95% CI: 3.884-2.992×10 10, P=0.045) , NLR level ( OR=1.243×10 -8, 95% CI: 2.911×10 -13-1.072×10 -5, P=0.001) and SII level ( OR=0.938, 95% CI: 0.885-0.976, P=0.008) were all influencing factors affecting the postoperative treatment effect of postmenopausal OVCF, and ROC results showed that both NLR (AUC=0.86, 95% CI: 0.77-0.94, P<0.001) and SII (AUC=0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.85, P<0.001) had good prognostic value for postmenopausal OVCF. Conclusion:NLR and SII are risk factors for OVCF in postmenopausal osteoporosis patients, and have good short-term prognostic value.

Cognitive dysfunction,as a common symptom among patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and patients with fibromyalgia(FM),impacts on life quality,occupation and study of these patients.However,the neural correlates to the cognitive impairment are unknown.Event related potentials,which reflect the information processing objectively and constantly,provide possibility for taking a insight into and estimating the dysfunction.By summarizing and analyzing studies in event related potentials about chronic fatigue syndrome,fibromyalgia,we found that CFS patients were characterized with prolonged latency of N200 and P300 accompanied by decreased P300 amplitude when they performed on Oddball paradigm,fibromyalgia patients were characterized with lower P300 amplitude when they concentrated on Oddball task,meanwhile,fibromyalgia patients also showed decreased P100/N100,P200,P300,LPC in emotional word decision task and somatic pictures decision task.It's suggests that the cognitive dysfunction in CFS is mainly caused by slowed speed of information identification and classification,whereas in FM it's dysregulation in attention control system results in the cognitive dysfunction.Limitations in current studies and prospects on researches about cognitive dysfunction in CFS for future were also discussed.
