Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of propofol sedation for gastrointestinal endoscopy,we conducted a Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing propofol with traditional sedative agents.Methods Referring Cochrane Collaboration search strategy to develop retrieval in Medline,Web of Science,Wanfang and CNKI database to retrieve the anesthetic propofol and traditional agents in the literature for randomized controlled trials of gastrointestinal endoscopy,surgery and assess their recovery effect.Results Twenty-one original RCTs investigating a total of 1 765 patients,of whom 894 received propofol only and 871 received traditional sedative agents only,met the inclusion criteria.Research showed that compared with traditional anesthetics,no significant differences existed in anesthetic effects of propofol on gastrointestinal endoscopy surgery time.However,surgery can significantly shorten recovery time and the average discharge time; and higher recovery rates.The result of racial subgroup analysis showed:the anesthetic propofol can significantly shorten the time of gastrointestinal endoscopy surgery for Asian populations,but had little effect on the European population.Contrast method for subgroup analysis showed:anesthetic propofol could significantly shorten the ERCP angiography in gastrointestinal endoscopy surgery time,but has little effect on the UGE and colonscopy angiography.Conclusions Propofol is safe and effective for gastrointestinal endoscopy procedures and is associated with shorter endoscopy recovery and discharge time,higher post-anesthesia recovery scores.Care should be taken when extrapolating our results to specific practice settings and high-risk patient subgroups.

Objective To study the efifcacy of interferon IFN-αon chronic hepatitis B, analyze the inlfuencing factors of therapeutic effect. Methods 62 cases with hepatitis B collected in our hospital from January 2008 to December 2012 were treated with interferon IFN-αfor one year, and divided into response group and non-response group according to the efficacy, biochemical indicators, viral load, host factors of patients in both two groups were analyzed. Results After one year’s treatment, the response patients were 38 cases(61.29%), non-response patients were 24 cases(38.71%). The male to female ratio in response group was 26/12, 13/11 in non-response group. The mean disease duration in response group was (3.3 ± 1.3)years, (5.4 ± 1.4) years in non-response group. The mean age in response group was (31.9 ± 8.6) years, (32.7 ± 5.6) years in non-response group. The difference between two groups was statistically signiifcant(P<0.05) Conclusion There is good therapeutic effect for most patients. and no reply for some patients. Analysing clinical data and the results of the study, we found that the course of disease,age, male/female ratio and level of ALT and AST are inlfuencing factors in interferon IFN-αtreatment for chronic hepatitis B.They can be use to predict clinical effect of interferon IFN-αtreatment for chronic hepatitis B.

Objective To preliminarily observe the clinical efficacy of hippocampal-sparing prophylactic cranial irradiation (HS-PCI) using helical tomotherapy (HT) in patients with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) after chemoradiotherapy,and compare HT with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in dose distribution.Methods From April to June,2014,six patients with LS-SCLC who had achieved a complete remission after chemoradiotherapy were assigned to HS-PCI using HT within a month after brain metastasis was ruled out using brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).After fusing CT images and MRI images,the hippocampus was contoured in the fusion images and hippocampal avoidance regions were created using a volumetric expansion of 3 mm around the hippocampus.A dose of 25 Gy in 10 fractions to 95％ of planning target volume (PTV) was prescribed in HT,IMRT,and VMAT.The clinical efficacy,adverse reactions,neurocognitive function,and brain metastasis were evaluated for HT.The dose distribution in PTV and hippocampus were compared between HT,IMRT,and VMAT.Results There were one patient with abdominal wall and abdominal lymph node metastases,one patient with local recurrence,and no patient with brain metastasis during the observation period.The numbers of patients with grade 1 and grade 2 headache,dizziness,and hair loss reactions were 3 and 1,3 and 1,and 4 and 2,respectively.There were no significant differences in the average score of the Mini-Mental State Examination before treatment and at 3 and 6 months after treatment (29.7,29.2,and 29.3 ; P =0.083,0.317,and 0.157).The mean dose to the hippocampus was 16.85 Gy for IMRT and 17.59 Gy for VMAT.For HT,the mean doses to the hippocampus and avoidance regions were reduced to 5.26 Gy and 6.21 Gy,respectively.The prescribed dose for HT was reduced by 79％ and 71％ compared with IMRT and VMAT,respectively.The average coverage rate of the prescribed dose was 94.48％ for HT.Conclusions HT achieves promising dose distribution and target coverage in sparing of the hippocampus.Moreover,HT dose not increase the incidence of adverse reactions.The change in neurocognitive function needs to be further studied with longterm observation and large-scale sampling.

Objective To understand the prevalence and influencing factors of overweight and obesity in adult residents in Xuzhou City of Jiangsu Province,so as to provide scientific basis for health policies and intervention strategies.Methods A total of 39 445 participants were recruited by multi-stage random cluster sampling method,and health data were obtained through questionnaires and physical examinations.Results The prevalence of overweight and obesity was 34.60％ and 9.40％,respectively; and the standardized prevalence was 32.97％ and 8.67％.The prevalence of overweight or obesity in males was 36.73％ and 8.62％,in females 32.61％ and 10.13％.The prevalence of overweight or obesity was increased with age,although the prevalence of overweight was decreased after 55 years of age (18-:16.31％; 25-:27.38％; 35-:37.28％; 45-:41.55％; 55-:40.71％; 65-:37.64％; 75-:32.08％) and the prevalence of obesity was decreased after 75 years of age (18-:2.49％; 25-:6.41％; 35-:9.64％; 45-:11.24％; 55-:12.07％; 65-:12.45％; 75-:8.88％).There were significant difference of the prevalence of overweight/obesity by educational level (x2=178.41,P＜0.01; x2=243.59,P＜0.01),profession (x2=191.28,P＜0.01; x2=120.38,P＜0.01) and marital status (x2=431.67,P＜0.01; x2=118.43,P＜0.01).In Logistic regression,female,vegetable over-intake every day and current cigarette smoking were protective factors of overweight/obesity,while middle and old-age,alcohol drinking and big appetite were risk factors of overweight/obesity.Conclusions A higher morbidity rate of overweight/obesity was found in Xuzhou City,and comprehensive interventions should be taken for high risk populations.

Objective To explore the relationship between poor sleep quality and stoke.Methods A total of 738 stroke patients in Xuzhou city in 2013 were selected as the case group and age-and sex-matched healthy non-stroke subjects (n =738)as control group.The writer-designed general situation questionnaire and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)analyses were conducted for a face-to-face investigation.Results No significant difference in mean age(66.1±10.9 and 65.8 ± 10.6,t =0.60,P =0.58)and in sex (50％ vs.50 ％) was found between two groups.There were statistically significant differences between case and control groups in baseline values of BMI(t=2.40,P =0.02),histories of hypertension(x2 =174.30,P =0.00),diabetes mellitus (x2 =27.20,P =0.00),coronary heart disease(x2 =115.60,P =0.00),smoking(x2 =6.10,P =0.01),drinking (x2 =7.30,P =0.01)and living stress(x2 =11.40,P =0.01).The PSQI sub-scores and PSQI total scores were higher in case group than in control group.The rate of poor sleep quality was higher in case group(279 cases,37.8 ％) than in control group(136 cases,18.4 ％) (x2 =6.10,P =0.01).Multivariate logistic analysis showed that,after adjusting for confounding factors of BMI,histories of hypertension,diabetes,coronary heart disease.smoking,drinking and living stress,the poor sleep quality in total male plus female was independent predictor variables for stroke[odds ratio(95 ％ CI) of 2.3 (1.8-3.0)],no matter their sex,with odds ratio (95 ％ CI) in male (2.5,1.7-3.7) or in female (2.2,1.5-3.2),respectively,but there was no significance difference in the odds ratio between male and female in case group(x2 =0.04,P=0.85).The risk stroke was 2.3 folds higher in poor sleep quality versus control in male plus female,with pure male or female of 2.5 or 2.2 folds.There was no significance difference between male and female in case group versus.the control(x2 =0.04,P=0.85).Conclusions Poor sleep quality is associated with the occurrence of stroke and may be a risk factor for stroke.

Objective To evaluate the relation between lung dosimetric parameters and the risk of symptomatic radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who had re-ceived postoperative radiotherapy. Methods From November 2002 to March 2006, 90 patients with NSCLC who had received postoperative 3-dimentinal conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) were retrospectively analyzed, including 53 with stage ⅢA disease, 25 with stafe ⅢB disease and 12 with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ disease but positive margins. Seventy (78%) patients underwent lobectomy, 20 ( 22% ) underwent pneumonectomy, and 38 ( 46% ) received adjuvant chemotherapy. The median radiation dose was 60 Gy given in 30 fractions of 2 Gy using 6 MV X-ray. The percentage of the whole lung volume ( Vx ) and the ipsilateral absolute lung volume ( Vipsi-dosewhich received more than a certain dose were calculated. The endpoint was grade 2 and above RP based on CTC AE 3.0. The relation between the dosimetric factors and RP was also analyzed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results Nine patients ( 10% ) developed symptomatic RP ( grade 2 in 7 and grade 3 in 2), and all of them were in the lobectomy group. No RP was observed in patients who received pneumonectomy. Both V30 and V35 were higher in patients with RP than those without ( 19% vs 14% ,U= -2.16,P=0.030, and 15% vs 11%,U= -2.65,P =0.007, respectively). The area under curve in receiver operating characteristic curves based on the relation between incidence of RP and the value of Vipsi-dose was 0. 757. Using Vipsi-30 of 340 cm3 as a cut-off to predict RP, the sensitivity and specificity were 88% and 70%, respectively. The incidence of RP was 3% in patients with Vipsi-30< 340 cm3 compared with 29% in those with Vipsi-30>340cm3 ( X2 = 9.75 , P = 0.003 ) . Conclusions More than340 cm3 of the ipsilateral lung receiving 30 Gy is significantly related to the risk of RP in patients undergoing lobectomy. It is safe for patients who undergo pneumonectomy to receive postoperative 3DCRT if lung V20 is less than 10%.

Objective To explore the interaction of sleep quality and depression among patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods With multistage cluster sampling, all the participants were interviewed with self-designed questionnaire, diabetes-specific quality of life scale and self-rating depression scale, and Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale. Chi-square test was used for qualitative data. Risk factors were analyzed by means of multiple linear regression or logistic regression model. The indicator of interaction was calculated according to the delta method. Results There were 944 residents involved in the final analysis, including 365 males and 579 females. The average age was (64. 0 ± 10. 2) years. Compared with patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus( T2DM) who had good sleep quality and no depression symptoms, the risk of quality of life in those with good sleep quality but depression was 2. 75 (95% CI 1. 59-4. 77); and the risk of quality of life in those with poor sleep quality and no depression was 1. 55(95%CI 1. 03-2. 33). The risk of quality of life in those with poor sleep quality and depression was 4. 97(95% CI 2. 34-9. 63). Due to poor sleep quality and depression in patients with T2DM the combined interaction index was 2. 48 (95% CI 1. 44-4. 29), the relative excess risk was 3. 42(95% CI 2. 16-4. 67), and the attributable proportion was 0. 51(95% CI 0. 32-0. 70). Conclusion A combined interaction of poor sleep quality and depression in affecting the quality of life was found in type 2 diabetic patients. When both factors existed at the same time, the interaction effect of these 2 factors was greater than the single one.

Objective To investigate independent prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) in extensive disease small cell lung cancer (EDSCLC). Methods Between January 2003 and December 2006, 154 patients diagnosed with extensive stage small cell lung cancer were enrolled in this study.Prognostic factors such as gender, age, performance status, smoking history, weight loss, distant metastasis, the number of matastasis, brain metastasis, the cycle of chemotherapy and thoracic radiation therapy (TRT) for EDSCLC patients were evaluated by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results The median following-up time was 40. 5 months. The rate of follow-up was 92. 2%. The MST and overall survival rates at 3-year in smoking group and no-smoking group were 13 months, 11.8% and 17 months,22. 8%,respectively (χ2=3.40,P =0. 064);in ChT/TRT group and ChT group, they were 17. 2 months, 17.9%and 9.3 months,13.9%, respectively(χ2=10.47,P=0.001);and in the cycle of chemotherapy ≥4 group and ＜ 4 group, they were 16 months, 20. 1% and 9.3 months, 2. 9%, respectively (χ2=17.79,P=0. 000). By multivariate analysis, smoking history was a statistically significant unfavorable factor for OS in EDSCLC patients (versus no-smoking, hazard ratio (HR)=1.462, χ2=4.40, P=0.036). In addition, ≥4 cycles of chemotherapy and TRT were favorable prognostic factors ( ≥4 cycles vs ＜4 cycles, HR =0. 420,χ2 = 17. 17, P = 0. 000; ChT/TRT vs ChT, HR = 0. 634, χ2 = 6. 20, P = 0. 013). Conclusions Smoking is a independent unfavorable prognostic factor and ≥ 4 cycles of chemotherapy And TRT are independent favorable prognostic factors for OS in EDSCLC.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and trend of ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease mortality among Xuzhou residents from 2011 to 2015. Methods: The mortality data of the ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease were obtained from the registration disease surveillance system covering the residents of the city from 2011 to 2015. Ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease were identified according to the international classification of diseases (ICD-10), Ischemic heart diseases include I20 to I25 (angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarction, certain current complications following acute myocardial infarction, other acute ischemic heart diseases chronic ischemic heart disease); cerebrovascular diseases include I60 to I69 (subarachnoid hemorrhage, intracerebral hemorrhage, other non-traumatic hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, stroke not specified as hemorrhage or infarction, other cerebrovascular diseases, sequelae of cerebrovascular disease). Results: (1)From 2011 to 2015, the chronic ischemia Cardio-Cerebrovascular disease mortality of residents in Xuzhou was 261.2 per one hundred thousand (129 950/49 748 321), 269.9 per one hundred thousand(69 562/25 775 930)for male residents, 252.0 per one hundred thousand(60 388/23 972 391)for female residents, the mortality rate in men was significantly higher than that in women (P<0.05). The chronic ischemic Cardio-Cerebrovascular disease mortality rate of urban residents was 243.8 per one hundred thousand(17 049/6 993 787), which was lower than the rate of rural residents (264.0 per one hundred thousand(112 901/42 754 534), P<0.05).

The mortality rate of hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease were 77.6 per one hundred thousand(7 562/9 747 768), 71.6 per one hundred thousand(6 873/9 600 745), 61.2 per one hundred thousand(6 115/9 986 877), 55.3 per one hundred thousand(5 613/10 151 842)and 46.4 per one hundred thousand(4 763/10 261 089)respectively, presented with a downward trend(P<0.05). (3)The average death age due to ischemic heart diseases of all residents was (77.0±13.1)years old, (76.4±13.2) years old among urban residents, (77.1±7.1 )years old among rural residents, (74.3±13.5)years old for male residents, (80.0±12.0) years old for female residents. The average death age due to ischemic cerebrovascular diseases of all residents was (76.4±11.9)years old, (76.5±12.3) years old among urban residents, (76.4±11.9 )years old among rural residents, (74.3±12.2)years old among male residents, (79.0±11.1) years old among female residents. From 2011 to 2015, the death age due to ischemic heart diseases were (76.3±13.5), (77.2±13.0), (76.6±13.3), (77.1±12.9)and(77.8±12.9)years old respectively; the death age due to cerebrovascular disease were (75.8±12.1), (76.3±11.8), (76.6±11.8), (76.6±12.0)and(77.1±11.9)years old respectively. The Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the death age due to ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease increased year by year in the past 5 years. (r value was 0.033 and 0.038, respectively, all P<0.01). Conclusion From 2011 to 2015, the mortality of hemorrhagic cerebrovascular disease decreased, while the mortality of ischemic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases remained unchanged among Xuzhou residents.

Objective To retrospectively analyze treatment results of radiotherapy for medically inoperable stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ non-small cell lung cancer. Methods Between Jan.2000 and Dec.2005,fifty-eight such patients were enrolled into the database analysis,including 37 with clinical stage Ⅰ and 21 with stage Ⅱ disease.Fifty patients received radiotherapy alone and eight with radiotherapy and chemotherapy.Fortythree patients were treated with 3-D conformal radiotherapy(3D-CRT)and 15 with conventional radiotherapy.Results The 1-,2-and 3- year overall survival rates were 85%,54%and 30%,and the median survival time was 26.2 months for the whole group.The corresponding figures were 88%,60%,36%and 30.8 months for cancer-specific survival:84%,64%,31%and 30.8 months for Stage Ⅰ disease;81%,47%,28%and 18.8 months for Stage Ⅱ disease;95%,57%,33%and 30.8 months for 3D-CRT group and 53%,44%,24%and 15.3 months for conventional radiotherapy group.By logrank test,tumor volume,pneumonitis of Grade Ⅱ or higher and weight loSS more than 5%showed statistically significant impact on overall survival.Tumor volume was the only independent prognostic factor in Cox muhivariable regression.Pneumonitis and esophagitis of Grade Ⅱ or higher were 16%and 2%,respectively.Age and lung function before treatment had a significant relationship with pneumonitis.Failure included the local recurrence(33%)and distant metastasis(21%).There was no difference between the treatment modalities and failure sites. Conclusions For medically inoperable early stage non-small cell lung cancer patients,tumor volume is the most important prognostic factor for overall survival.The conformal radiotherapy marginally improves the survival.The age and pulmonary function are related to the incidence of treatment induced pneumonitis.
