ObjectiveTo investigate the status of self-management in patients with spinal cord injury and the related factors. MethodsFrom May, 2020 to February, 2021, 255 patients from a spinal cord injury club were enrolled, and investigated with the general information questionnaire, self-management ability scale, Chronic Disease Self-efficacy Scale through internet. Multiple linear stepwise regression was used to explore the related factors. ResultsThe scores of disease symptom management, daily life management, intermittent catheterization behavior management, emotional management and social return were (40.458±9.122), (33.945±6.800), (36.709±8.736) and (25.011±4.932), respectively. The average score for the single question of daily life management was the highest (3.772±0.755), while emotional management and social return was the lowest (3.573±0.705). Duration of intermittent catheterization, family members' attitude, self-efficacy and occupation were the related factors of symptom management (R² = 0.135, F = 7.744, P < 0.001). Self-efficacy, duration of intermittent catheterization, use of hydrophilic coated catheters and complications were the related factors of daily life management (R² = 0.173, F = 13.042, P < 0.001). Self-efficacy, duration of intermittent catheterization, use of hydrophilic coated catheters and medical insurance were the related factors of intermittent catheterization behavior management (R² = 0.141, F = 10.259, P < 0.001). Self-efficacy, duration of intermittent catheterization, complications and frequency of intermittent catheter in the last week were the related factors of emotional management and social regression dimensions (R² = 0.282, F = 19.590, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe self-management of patients with spinal cord injury by clean intermittent catheterization is at medium level. Moreover, it may be affected by many factors. Some of them can be targets of intervention.

Objective:To further investigate the prevalence of tea-drinking-borne endemic fluorosis in Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County (referred to as Tianzhu) Gansu Province, to accurately master the information of patients with tea-drinking-borne endemic fluorosis, and to provide scientific basis for popularizing low fluoride brick tea and carrying out patient rescue and treatment.Methods:From 2019 to 2020, according to the "Investigation Plan of Tea-drinking-borne Endemic Fluorosis in Gansu Province in 2019", in the administrative villages with the habit of drinking and selling tea, drinking water samples of local residents were collected to detect the fluorine content of water in Tianzhu, 10 families were randomly selected in each village, basic situation of each family member and the drinking situation of tea were investigated, and tea samples were collected to determine the fluorine content. At the same time, all children aged 8 - 12 in the investigation village were examined for dental fluorosis; clinical examination of bone and joint symptoms and signs was conducted for permanent residents over the age of 25 in the investigation village (excluding 25 years old), X-ray examination of bone and joint was conducted for patients with clear clinical symptoms or signs of skeletal fluorosis, and urine samples were collected to detect urinary fluorine. Ion selective electrode method was used to detect fluorine in water, tea and urine, and dental fluorosis was diagnosed by "Diagnosis of Dental Fluorosis" (WS/T 208-2011), and the "Diagnostic criteria for Endemic Skeletal Fluorosis" (WS 192-2008) was used for the diagnosis of skeletal fluorosis.Results:A total of 161 water samples were collected, and the fluorine content in water was from 0.07 to 0.68 mg/L, which met the domestic drinking water standard ( < 1.0 mg/L). A total of 1 644 side-tea samples were collected, and the annual per capita consumption of side-tea of permanent residents over 16 years old was 1.05 kg. The average fluoride content of tea was 601.99 - 991.38 mg/kg. According to the detection results of tea fluorine, 16 administrative villages with an average daily intake of tea fluorine more than 3.5 mg/d were screened, the lowest intake was 4.91 mg/d in Tuta Village Danma Township, and the highest intake was 18.98 mg/d in Huashan Village Maozang Township. A total of 253 children aged 8 - 12 years old in 14 administrative villages were investigated. There were 3 cases of very mild dental fluorosis, 2 cases of mild dental fluorosis, and 1 case of moderate dental fluorosis. The overall prevalence of dental fluorosis was 4.74% (12/253). The clinical examination of bone and joint symptoms and signs was carried out for 3 100 permanent adults over the age of 25 (excluding the age of 25) in 15 administrative villages. The X-ray examination of bone and joint was carried out for 104 patients with definite clinical symptoms and/or signs of skeletal fluorosis. Six patients with skeletal fluorosis were diagnosed, including 3 mild and 3 severe, aged 56 - 76 years. The average urinary fluorine in the investigated villages was 0.73 - 4.74 mg/L (the number of investigated was 3 100). According to the determination and classification standards of tea-drinking-borne fluorosis area, Tuta Village Danma Township, Xiding Village Dahonggou Township and Daiqian Village Zhuaxixiulong Township were determined to be in the mild area of tea-drinking-borne endemic fluorosis, while Nannigou Village Zhuaxixiulong Township was in the moderate area of tea-drinking-borne endemic fluorosis.Conclusion:Tea-drinking-borne endemic fluorosis is prevalent in Tianzhu, Gansu Province, and targeted prevention methods and control measures need to be taken.

Objective:To verify the efficacy and safety of daily oral minodronate in postmenopausal women with established osteoporosis.Methods:In this randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial, 262 postmenopausal women were enrolled. Patients were randomized to receive daily oral minodronate 1 mg with supplements of 500 mg calcium and 200 U vitamin D 3 ( n=130) or placebo ( n=132) with daily supplements of 500 mg calcium and 200 U vitamin D 3, for 48 weeks. The primary endpoint was the average bone mineral density (BMD) change in the lumbar vertebrae 48 weeks post-treatment. Secondary outcome measures was the incidence of vertebral fractures. Safety assessments included the rate of adverse events. Results:At the end of 48 weeks treatment, the average BMD change rate from baseline were: full analysis set results: (3.52±4.82)% in the minodronate group and (2.00±5.74)% in the placebo group; per-protocol set results: (3.99±5.05)% in the minodronate group and (2.07±6.20)% in the placebo group; the differences were all significant (all P<0.05). Vertebral fracture occured in 3 patients (2.3%, 3/132) in the placebo group, and 1 case (0.8%, 1/130) in the minodronate group ( P>0.05). The incidence of adverse events was 71.5% (93/130) in the minodronate group and 78.0% (103/132) in the placebo group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Minodronate is effective and safe in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis without severe side effects.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of application of non-fasting dyslipidemia cutoff values in community population.Methods:Self-control study was used. 839 physical examinees (292 males and 547 females) were recruited in clinical laboratory of Guang′an men Hospital from January to October 2018. The median (interquartile range) of age was 60 (54, 66) years. Blood samples were collected before and at 4 h after a standard breakfast. Comparison of fasting and postprandial lipoprotein levels was performed using Paired-Samples T Test or Two-Related-Samples Wilcoxon. The changes of 4-hour postprandial blood lipid levels and the percentages of postprandial dyslipidemia according to different stratification of fasting dyslipidemia were performed using one-way ANOVA and χ 2 test, respectively. Results:Compared with fasting, 4-hour postprandial total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) decreased slightly, postprandial triglyceride (TG) increased by 0.72 mmol/L, and postprandial remnant-like lipoprotein cholesterol (RLP-C) increased by 0.27 mmol/L ( t or Z values = 10.26,22.94,24.22,4.71,16.61,26.92,-23.58,-19.35, P<0.05, respectively). According to the non-fasting dyslipidemia cut-off values recommended by the European consensus, there were 10%, 16.6%, 10.1%, 12.3%, 30% and 34.9% of the population in the appropriate levels of fasting TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, non-HDL-C, TG and RLP-C distributed in elevated levels of postprandial, respectively. The changes of 4-hour postprandial TC, LDL-C, non-HDL-C and HDL-C increased with the elevation of fasting level ( F=9.50,6.18,8.07,3.86, P<0.01), and the maximum changes of TC≤3.5%, LDL-C≤6.8%, non-HDL-C≤2.9%, HDL-C≤6.3%; the change of 4-hour postprandial TG increased slightly first and then decreased significantly (51.3% vs. 57.9% vs. 39.2%, F=19.05, P<0.01); the change of 4-hour postprandial RLP-C decreased (50.8% vs. 33.2%, F=10.40, P<0.01). The cut-off values of 4-hour postprandial dyslipidemia were TC ≥5.1 mmol/L, LDL-C ≥3.2 mmol/L, HDL-C ≤0.9 mmol/L, non-HDL-C ≥4.0 mmol/L and RLP-C ≥1.0 mmol/L. The cut-off values of borderline elevated and elevated TG levels were ≥2.2 mmol/L and ≥3.4 mmol/L, respectively. Conclusions:The cut-off values of postprandial dyslipidemia including TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, non-HDL-C and RLP-C were preliminarily established in community population, which could be applied to the routine lipid profile evaluation in the physical examination population. And it might be needed that postprandial TG was managed hierarchically according to different cut-off values.

Objective:To establish the reference interval of serum triglyceride (TG) for 4 hours after meal in healthy middle and old people of Beijing community, and to provide the diagnostic basis for the judgment of dyslipidemia after meal.Methods:Selected 369 elderly people from January to October 2018 in the health examination of Guang′anmen Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The subjects collected fasting venous blood samples in the morning the next day after fasting for 12 hours, then ate a standard breakfast that conformed to the local dietary habits, and collected venous blood samples again 4 hours after eating. Serum TG levels were measured 4 h after meal using AU5822 fully automatic biochemical analyzer and matching reagents. The comparison of postprandial TG between different age and sex groups was statistically significant using the nonparametric test of two independent samples, and the comparison between postprandial and fasting TG using the nonparametric test of two paired samples with P<0.05 as the difference. The 95% confidence interval was calculated using a nonparametric method according to the relevant requirements of the CLSI EP28-A3c file, and the reference interval was expressed as P2.5, P97.5. Results:The median 4-hour post-prandial TG of the middle-aged and elderly aged 45-59 years and those aged ≥ 60 years at health checkups were 1.65 (1.25, 2.13) mmol/L and 1.58 (1.25, 2.00) mmol/L, there was no significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-1.040, P>0.05). There was no statistical difference between males 1.69 (1.22, 2.31) mmol/L and females 1.63 (1.26, 2.12) mmol/L at 4 hours postprandial TG levels in the 45-59 year-old group ( Z=-0.179, P>0.05),there was also no statistical difference between 1.64 (1.22, 2.06) mmol/L for men and 1.53 (1.28, 1.99) mmol/L for women aged 60 years or older ( Z=-0.256, P>0.05).Compared with the median fasting TG of 1.05 (0.87, 1.29) mmol/L, the median serum TG of 1.61 (1.25, 2.09) mmol/L at 4 hours after meal was significantly increased ( Z=-16.449, P<0.01). The difference between postprandial and fasting was 0.52 (0.30, 0.85) mmol/L.The reference range of serum TG at 4 hours after meal was 0.82 to 3.02 mmol/L. Conclusion:In this study, the reference range of serum triglycerides for 4 hours after meal was established in some healthy elderly population groups in Beijing.

OBJECTIVETo explore the repair effects of acupuncture for promoting the governor vessel and tranquilizing the mind (acupuncture technique) on cerebral white matter injury of premature infants.

METHODSA total of 56 cases of cerebral whiter matter injury of premature infants, the fetal age less than 35 weeks were selected and randomized into an observation group (27 cases) and a control group (29 cases). The routine basic rehabilitation therapy was used in the two groups. Additionally, in the observation group, the acupuncture technique was added, once a day and the treatment for 15 days was as 1 course. Totally, 3 courses of treatment were required. Before and after treatment, the cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were adopted to observe the location and severity of cerebral white matter injury. The Gesell developmental scale was used to assess the nerve motor development.

RESULTSAfter treatment, the difference was not significant statistically in the severity of cerebral white matter injury in the infants between the two groups (>0.05). The FA value of cerebral white matter in the interesting zone was increased as compared with that before treatment in the infants of the two groups (both<0.05). The result in the observation group was higher than that in the control groups (<0.05). After treatment, DQ value of each function zone in Gesell scale was all increased as compared with that before treatment in the two groups (all<0.05). After treatment, the DQ values of gross motor, fine motor and social adaptability in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (all<0.05). After treatment, the difference was not significant in DQ value of individual-social and speech behaviors between the two groups (both>0.05).

CONCLUSIONAcupuncture technique for promoting the governor vessel and tranquilizing the mind promotes the repair of the function in the premature infants with cerebral white matter injury and further benefits the promotion of the intelligence.
