ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the prevalence of depression symptoms in residents, and to analyze the demographic characteristics, training status and psychological influencing factors in order to provide the evidence for the mental health management and intervention of residents in China at current stage.Methods:A total of 1 050 participants from eight different training centers in Shenyang, Dalian, Jinzhou and Fushun of Liaoning Province were investigated by Pittsburgh sleep quality index, International physical activity questionnaire, Survey of perceived organizational support, Psychological capital questionnaire and Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire, which covered questions including social demographic information, training information, sleep status, physical activity, organization support, psychological capital, job satisfaction and depressive symptoms of residents. SPSS 22.0 were used to carry out statistical analysis such as logistic regression.Results:A total of 962 valid questionnaires were collected and the results showed that 44.59% (429/962) of residents had depressive symptoms. High training grade ( ORPGY-3=1.775, P=0.006) and poor quality of sleep ( OR=1.662, P<0.001) were risk factors of depressive symptoms, whereas psychological capital ( OR=0.962, P<0.001) and job satisfaction ( OR=0.972, P=0.001) were protective factors of depressive symptoms. Conclusion:The prevalence of depressive symptoms is high in residents. Training grade, sleep quality, psychological capital and job satisfaction are closely associated with the high prevalence of depressive symptoms, which should be paid more attention to.
ABSTRACT
Insufficient volume of future liver remnant (FLR) often leads to the complications including liver failure and even death and thus remains a bottleneck for liver surgery. Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) is a newly developed two-stage hepatectomy procedure which can promote rapid regeneration of FLR, but the related mechanism has not yet been elucidated. With reference to the recent research advances in China and foreign countries, this article reviews the hemodynamic and humoral factors for ALPPS in promoting liver regeneration, the effect of ALPPS on liver parenchymal cells, and the role of non-parenchymal liver cells (including hepatic stellate cells, natural killer cells, macrophages, and liver progenitor/stem cells) in regulating liver regeneration. It is pointed out that the interaction between non-parenchymal liver cells and parenchymal cells is a hotspot in the research on the mechanism of liver regeneration after ALPPS.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the application value and safety of sentinel lymph node biopsy ( SLNB) replacing axillary lymph node dissection ( ALND) for patients with early breast cancer .Methods Data was col-lected for patients undergoing SLNB or ALND in the Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University from June 2011 to June 2014.The complication of upper extremity , axillary local recurrence and distant metastasis were retro-spectively analyzed.The patients were followed up to Nov .2014, with the median follow-up of 41 ( 18-52 ) months.Results Patients undergoing SLNB had less postoperative complications of upper extremity ( numb and painχ2 =18.174, P =0.000;Restricted movement χ2 =20.413, P =0.000; Strength loss χ2 =23.785, P =0.000;P0.05).Conclusion In early breast cancer without SLN, SLNB can achieve the equivalent effect to ALND with less damage and complications .
ABSTRACT
Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a breast cancer screening educational program on women's knowledge and intention to seek breast cancer screening in China.Methods 60 patients were divided into the experimental group (30 cases) and the control group (32 cases).The experimental group received breast cancer screening educational program,while the control group did not.A pre-test and post-test were used in both the experimental and the control groups.A convenience sampling was used.Two structured questionnaires were used.Results The mean scores of knowledge of breast cancer screening and intention to seek breast cancer screening of the experimental group were statistically different from those of the control group after the education.Statistical difference also existed in the experimental group in the above aspects within the experimental group.Conclusions Application of breast cancer screening educational program can improve women's knowledge and intention to seek breast cancer screening,as well as supply reference for prevention item of breast cancer.
