ABSTRACT
The purpose of this article is to review the mechanism and intervention strategies of alexithymia， in order to provide a new direction for clinical treatment and research of alexithymia. Alexithymia is not only related to a variety of psychosomatic diseases， but also exists in mental diseases such as depression， anxiety and eating disorders， which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. This article reviews alexithymia and its mechanism in different diseases from cognition， neurological and social-psychological factors， and summarizes the intervention strategies， aiming to provide references for the clinical treatment of alexithymia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the application of MSCT perfusion imaging (PI)in diagnosing solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN).Methods 60 patients with SPN diagnosed by pathology were divided into two groups.Study group (SG)included 32 patients with lung cancer,and control group (CG)included 28 patients with benign nodules.The patients of two groups underwent 64-slice spiral CT PI and routine contrast-enhanced scan (ES).PI parameters were compared between SG and CG.The diagnosis value of PI was compared with that of ES.Results Compared with CG,SG had markedly higher BV,BF,PS and lower MTT (all P <0.01).Compared with ES, PI was more sensitive in detecting lung cancer and had a higher accuracy in diagnosing SPN (P <0.01).Conclusion MSCT PI plays an important role in diagnosing SPN.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of DWI in diagnosing ovarian carcinoma .Methods MRI and DWI were performed in 33 patients with ovarian carcinoma and 23 patients with benign ovarian tumor proved by pathology ,respectively .ADC values of the cystic components and the solid components were respectively measured in ovarian carcinoma and benign ovarian tumor .Results The mean ADC value of solid component in ovarian carcinoma was (1 .68 ± 0 .37)× 10-3 mm2/s ,which was significantly lower than that of solid component in benign tumor [(3 .51 ± 0 .53) × 10-3 mm2/s] .There was no significant statistical difference between ovarian car‐cinoma and benign tumor in ADC value of cystic component [(5 .34 ± 0 .54)× 10-3 mm2/s vs (5 .89 ± 0 .37)× 10-3 mm2/s] .Conclu‐sion DWI is useful for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma quantitatively .
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of Sandra Fucile oral stimulation on oral feeding readiness and ability of preterm infants.Methods Sixty-five premature infants were selected in the study.All of the premature infants were recruited randomly in convenience between Jul.and Dec.2012.For a randomized control principle,SPSS 13.0 was performed to achieve complete random design.Objects were divided into control group(receiving routine nursing) and intervention group(on the basis of routine nursing,receiving 15 minutes oral stimulation,1 time/day,for 10 days).Chinese version of Preterm Infant Oral Feeding Readiness Assessment scale(PIOFRA scale-CV) was used when intervention began,and 7 days,10 days,14 days after the start of the intervention.Results PIOFRA-CV scale score was statistically different at different time in both groups(F =169.062,P ＜0.001).The first day ratings were minimum in the 2 groups,after which with an upward trend over time.The control group and intervention group rated a statistically significant difference(F =5.538,P =0.022).Except for no difference on the first day and seventh day (t =1.650,P =0.204 ;t =0.817,P =0.369) between the 2 groups,the intervention group had a higher score than the control group (t =17.339,24.141,all P ＜0.001).Group and time had an interaction effect(F =1 1.561,P ＜0.001).The incidence of vomiting[42.4％ (14/33 cases) vs 34.4％ (11/32 cases)],infection [27.3％ (9/33 cases) vs 9.4％ (3/32 cases)],and gastro-oesophageal reflux[30.3％ (10/33 cases) vs 25.0％ (8/32 cases)] were not significantly different between the 2 groups(x2 =0.445,3.457,0.288,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Saudra Fucile oral stimulation method can significantly promote the development of premature oral feeding ability on the 10 day after the intervention,and will not increase vomiting,gastroesophageal reflux,and infection.It is suitable for clinical application.
