Objective To introduce the calculation of the DISO index in multi-dimensional data ranking for disease surveillance, and evaluate its applicability. Methods Using the data from the quality supervision and inspection of infectious disease reporting in Jingzhou City in a certain year as an example, the DISO index was used to rank 16 investigated medical institutions and compared with the TOPSIS method. The consistency between the two evaluation results was analyzed using Spearman correlation. Then, The DISO index from different medical institutions was used to evaluate the ranking of 8 counties (cities, districts). The evaluation indicators for the supervision and inspection included six items: report rate, timely report rate, completeness of report card filling, accuracy of report card filling, consistency rate with network information report, and completeness of valid ID number filling. Results Among the 16 medical institutions, 8 institutions had all six evaluation indicators at 100%. Using the two methods to rank the 16 medical institutions, the two methods showed that the 8 medical institutions with all six evaluation indicators at 100% were ranked first. There was a strong correlation between the rankings of the 16 medical institutions using the two methods (r_s=0.992, P=0.000). The three counties (cities, districts) with all six evaluation indicators at 100% were all ranked first, while country G was ranked seventh and country E was ranked eighth. Conclusion The results of the DISO index and the TOPSIS method were similar in one-dimensional ranking. DISO can be used for multi-dimensional ranking of disease surveillance data and deserves to be promoted and applied.

Objective To explore the effect on efficacy and safety of Wuling capsule on patients with post-stroke depression.Methods From July 2012 to September 2014, 90 post-stroke depression patients were selected in our hospital.The patients were divided into treatment group (n=45) and control group (n=45) by random number table method.The post-stroke depression patients in control group were treated with fluoxetine as clinical drug program.The post-stroke depression patients in treatment group were treated with Wuling capsule as clinical drug program, six weeks for a course of treatment, both group were treated after two courses,the clinical indicators improve effect, clinical treatment, changes of cytokines, incidence of adverse reactions of the patients between two groups were compared and analyzed.Results Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) scores and Barther index (BI) scores of patients in treatment group post-treatment were better than control group (P<0.05) .Compared with control group, the ratio of clinical efficiency and total efficiency significant in treatment group were increased significantly (P<0.05).The patients in treatment group post-treatment, the levels of cytokine of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) decreased significantly (P<0.05) .Compared with control group, the incidences of adverse effect of patients in treatment group were decreased (P<0.05).Conclusions Wuling capsule has certain therapeutic advantages for improving clinical efficacy and reducing adverse reactions for patients with post-stroke depression.It could as the therapy of choice for post-stroke depression patients.
