ABSTRACT
Objective The clinical effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in the treatment of senile cataract.Methods120 cases of senile cataract patients in September 2014 ~2016 year in December in our hospital, were randomly divided into two groups: the observation group after phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation, the control group was treated with small incision non phacoemulsification extracapsular cataract extraction.In the comparison of two groups.ResultsAfter treatment, the observation group was 0.5~0.9 the proportion of 51.7%, visual acuity>1 the proportion of 6.7% were significantly higher than control group (P<0.05);the complication rate of observation group was 43.3% lower than the control group 61.7%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionPhacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation in senile cataract patients can effectively improve patients' visual acuity, control the occurrence of complications, and the prognosis is good.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the expression levels of regulator of G-protein signaling 4 (RGS4) in pediatric nephroblastoma and pericancerous tissues, and explore the relationship between RGS4 and the occurrence and development of pediatric nephroblastoma. Methods Thirty-seven samples of pediatric nephroblastoma tissues and 8 samples of pericancerous tissues were collected after surgery to detect the expression of RGS4 protein by immunohistochemistry. Another 8 samples of fresh cancer tissues and corresponding pericancerous tissues were collected to detect the mRNA and protein levels of RGS4 by qRT-PCR and Western blot assay, respectively. Results Immunohistochemistry results showed that RGS4 protein was positively expressed both in pediatric nephroblastoma and pericancerous tissues, and its high expression rate was lower in pediatric nephroblastoma than that in pericancerous tissues [(37.83%(14/37) vs. 87.5%(7/8),χ2=4.675, P<0.05]. The expression level of RGS4 mRNA was significantly lower in pediatric nephroblastoma than that in pericancerous tissues (1.064 ± 0.549 vs. 5.374 ± 0.735, t=13.290, n=8, P < 0.01). Western blot results showed that the expression level of RGS4 protein was lower in pediatric nephroblastoma than that of pericancerous tissues (0.301±0.092 vs. 0.779 ± 0.041, t=13.424, n=8, P < 0.01). Conclusion The expression level of RGS4 is down-regulated in pediatric nephroblastoma, which may be related to the occurrence and development of pediatric nephroblastoma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate clinical value of high sensitive-cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT) combined with creatine kinase isoenzyme MB(CK-MB) in the diagnosis of children with myocarditis.Methods From Nov.2014 to Nov.2015,a total of 102 cases of myocarditis,suspected with myocardial damage and without myocardial damage(pneumonia and capillary bronchitis),and 50 healthy children were enrolled.Plasma levels of hs-cTnT and CK-MB were detected and compared.Results The levels of plasma hs-cTnT and CK-MB in children with myocarditis were significantly higher than those without myocarditis and healthy subjects(P<0.05).Hs-cTnT and CK-MB levels in children with myocarditis,less than one month old,were significantly higher than those with age of 1 month to 3 years old(P<0.05).Conclusion Combined detection of hs-cTnT and CK-MB could be with high sensitive and specificity in diagnosis of children with myocarditis,accurately assess the disease condition and improve the therapeutic effect and prognosis,which might be worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the cognition of patients with anxiety disorder and their inner experience and disease,and provide reference and basis for making more perfect health education. Methods A group of 38 patients with hospitalized anxiety were interviewed by collective focus interview. The interview was conducted by using the team skill training model to create a pleasant atmosphere. Results Five subjects of periods were identified, including the denial period of disease, the period of inner pain,the period of worrying about side effects of drugs,and the expectation period of disease cure. Conclusions The lack of awareness of disease and the desire for disease-related knowledge are very urgent. Through this study, we understand the psychological characteristics and needs of some patients with anxiety, and explore a set of patients who are suitable for anxiety of the mission model to provide some reference.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the benchmark dose (BMD) of fluoride concentration in saliva,and to evaluate the significance of saliva fluoride on control and prevention of endemic fluorosis.Methods In September 2014,middle school students in endemic fluorosis areas and non-endemic fluorosis areas in North China Petoleum were selected as objects.The contents of fluoride in water,urine and saliva were determined.The correlation of fluoride content in water,urine fluoride and fluoride concentration in saliva was analyzed.According to the levels of the saliva fluoride concentration,the children were divided into 11 groups,＜ 1.00,1.00-,2.00-,3.00-,4.00-,5.00-,6.00-,7.00-,8.00-,9.00-and ≥ 10.00 mg/L.The prevalence of dental fluorosis and defected dental fluorosis were investigated and the saliva fluoride concentration was calculated by Banch-Mark Dose Software.Results Compared with non endemic areas,the fluoride contents in water,urine and saliva [(2.13 ± 0.13),(1.29 ±0.73),(4.01 ± 3.61) mg/L] were higher than that in endemic areas [(0.67 ± 0.13),(0.38 ± 0.08),(0.75 ± 0.12) mg/L,t =158.730,24.780,18.114,all P ＜ 0.01].The fluoride concentration in saliva was positively correlated with the fluoride content in water and urine in endemic areas (r =0.626,0.945,all P ＜ 0.01).The (BMDs and benchmark dose lower bound (BMDLs) were 0.91,0.54,3.72,3.32 mg/L respectively,calculated by Banch-Mark Dose Software.With the increase of fluoride concentration in saliva,the prevalence of dental fluorosis and defect dental fluorosis had increased too,especially when the fluoride content in saliva was more than 4 mg/L.There were significant doseresponse relationships between the urine fluoride and the prevalence of dental fluorosis and defected dental fluorosis.Conclusion The fluoride concentration in saliva could be used as one of the evaluation indexes of fluorosis,and the BMD of saliva fluoride concentration in endemic fluorosis areas is suggested as 0.91 mg/L.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the value of external counterpulsation and cervical traction therapy on patients with vertebral artery insufficiency syndrome. Methods Based on the criteria of clinical diagnosis, 90 patients with vertebral artery insufficiency syndrome were randomized into three groups. The group A was treated with external counterpulsation (30 cases), the group B with cervical traction (30 cases)and the group C with cervical traction plus external counterpulsation (30 cases). Results There was better therapeutic effects in group C as compared with groups A and B (P0.05). Conclusion External counterpulsation and traction therapy are effective in the treatment of the vertebral artery insufficiency syndrome.
