Effects of exercise rehabilitation on the depression and anxiety state and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective@#To explore the effects of exercise rehabilitation on the depression and anxiety state and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure.@*Methods@#400 cases of chronic heart failure patients were selected as the research objects.They were randomly divided into control group(n=200)and exercise rehabilitation group(n=200) by random number table.Two groups were given symptomatic treatment and routine care on a regular basis, and exercise rehabilitation group again on this foundation to give rehabilitation therapy for 3 weeks.Self-rating anxiety scale(SAS) and Self-rating depression scale(SDS)were used to score the anxiety and depression of the two groups before and after rehabilitation.The SF-36 was used to assess the quality of life of patients.Rehabilitation satisfaction questionnaire was used to investigate the satisfaction degree of rehabilitation.@*Results@#There was no significant difference in SAS and SDS scores between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). After intervention, the SAS and SDS scores of the two groups were significantly lower than those before intervention (P<0.05). SAS and SDS scores in exercise rehabilitation group ((27.47±4.82)vs(45.63±5.61))were significantly lower than those in control group ((43.17±4.81) vs (59.61±4.18))(P<0.05). Before intervention, there was no significant difference in the scores of SF-36 scale between the two groups (P>0.05). After intervention, the scores of SF-36 scale were significantly increased in the two groups, and the difference was statistically significant compared with that before intervention (P<0.05). All the factors of SF-36 in exercise rehabilitation group were significantly higher than those in control group (mental health: (72.06±7.48)vs(64.34±7.01), emotional function: (81.06±7.01)vs(76.05±6.92), social function: (81.14±7.83)vs(71.26±7.65), overall health: (70.14±8.05)vs(61.26±7.95), energy: (74.56±7.81)vs(69.46±7.40), the body pain: (68.51±7.36)vs(60.26±7.51), physical limitations: (64.99±7.31)vs(59.62±7.53 ), physiological function: (69.71±7.63)vs(63.84±7.04), all P<0.05). The satisfaction of the exercise rehabilitation group (92.5%)was significantly higher than that of the control group(75.0%) (P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#Exercise rehabilitation training can not only improve the anxiety and depression of patients with chronic heart failure, but also effectively improve the quality of life of patients.Exercise rehabilitation training has a high degree of recognition, and is worthy of extensive application in clinical practice.

Effect of Deletion of the Carboxyl Terminal of the NS1 Protein on Pathogenicity of the Influenza B Virus / 病毒学报

To analyze the molecular basis of the variation of the pathogenicity of the influenza B virus, we rescued a recombinant virus with a deletion in the carboxyl terminal of the NS1 protein using reverse genetics based on the parental virus B-S9 of B/Yamagata/16/88. A mutant strain with a deletion of 171 amino acids in the carboxyl terminal of the NS1 protein was named "B-L5". BALB/c mice were inoculated with 3 X 105 EID50 of B-L5 and the parental virus B-S9, respectively. Then, weight changes, survival, and viral titers were documented. During 3 days post-inoculation (dpi) to 7 dpi, the weight of mice infected with B-S9 decreased. However, the weight of mice infected with B-L5 showed weight decreases only at 2 dpi, and quickly recovered at 3 dpi. B-S9 and B-L5 could replicate in the lungs of BALB/c mice. However, viral titers in the lungs of mice infected with B-L5 were 7900-times lower than those of mice infected with B-S9 at 3 dpi. Viral titers in the lungs of mice infected with B-L5 were not detected at 6 dpi. These results showed that, compared with the parent virus B-S9, the mutant virus B-L5 showed lower pathogenicity in BALB/c mice. Our study suggests that deletion of the carboxyl terminal of the NS1 protein decreases the pathogenicity of the influenza B virus. Establishment of a reverse-genetics system for the B influenza virus will provide a platform for studying its pathogenesis, and mechanism of transmission, and for developing live-attenuated influenza B virus vaccines.

The Predictive Value for Long-term Prognosis of GRACE Score and SYNTAX Score in Patients With Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome / 中国循环杂志

Objective: To clarify the predictive value for long-term prognosis of GRACE score and SYNTAX score in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). Methods: A total of 784 NSTE-ACS patients treated in our hospital from 2009-01 to 2014-01 were retrospectively studied. According to the treatment, the patients were divided into 3 groups: Medication group,n=410, Stent group,n=325 and CABG group,n=49. Based on 2 scoring systems, the patients were divided into another 3 groups: Low risk group, Medium risk group and High-risk group. The relationship between GRACE score and SYNTAX score was studied by Pearson correlation analysis, survival analysis was conducted by Kaplan-Meier method, univariate and multivariate analysis were performed by Cox proportional hazard model, and the area under curve (AUC) of ROC analysis was used to compare two methods. Results: All 784 patients completed the follow-up study at the median of 47.7 months. Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a weak positive correlation between GRACE score and SYNTAX score (r=0.40,P0.05. Cox proportional hazard model and ROC analysis indicated that GRACE and SYNTAX scores had the important predictive value for lone term prognosis of NSTE-ACS. ROC analysis of GRACE score, SYNTAX score, the combination of GRACE and SYNTAX scores showed that 3 of them all had good predictive value for MACE occurrence, three of 95% CI had signiifcant overlapping without statistic differences. Conclusion: GRACE score and SYNTAX score are related, both of them have important while similar predictive value for long term prognosis in NSTE-ACS patients, the combination of 2 scores cannot increase the predictive value. GRACE score is appropriate for the risk stratiifcation in NSTE-ACS patients.

Effects of Deanxit on depression and clinical outcomes in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective To investigate deanxit clinical efficacy of depression in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods 88 elderly patients with ACS and depression were randomly divided into Deanxit (2 tablets daily ; Deanxit,n =43) or placebo (control,n =45) treatment in addition to standard therapy.SDA score,SDS score,MACE and cardiac autonomic nerve function were performed at 12 weeks follow-up.Results In deanxit group,SDA score and SDS score were significantly reduced (34.28 ± 6.35 vs 52.68 ± 5.74,41.19 ±4.63 vs 54.68 ± 4.32,P ＜ 0.05),MACE were also decreased (4.6％ vs 28.9 ％,P ＜ 0.05).SDNN were significantly higher than control (109.03 ± 23.08 vs 98.29 ± 27.44,P ＜ 0.05),but LF was reduced (152.89 ± 92.75vs 249.21 ± 64.17,P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Deanxit can improve the depression and clinical symptoms in elderly patients with ACS and depression.By improving the cardiac autonomic nerve function,deanxit possible reduce the onset of severe arrhythmia and improve the short-term prognosis.

Preparation and application of a colloidal gold strip to detect the rabies antibody / 生物工程学报

To develop a specific, rapid, and convenient immunochromatography assay (ICA) to detect the rabies antibody in clinical sample from immuned dogs by rabies vaccine. Colloidal gold particles labeled with purified rabies virus (CVS11) were used as the detector reagent. The staphylococcal protein A (SPA) and pured rabbit anti-rabies virus IgG were blotted on the test and control regions of nitrocellulose membrane. Then the strip was assembled with sample pad, absorbing pad, and dorsal shield. The assay samples (261 dog's serum) were collected from Wildlife Rabies Disease Diagnostic Laboratories of Ministry of Agriculture in China, Institute of Military Veterinary, Academy of Military Medical Sciences and other six provinces, including rabies virus positive and negative serum. The performance of the strip was compared to fluorescent antibody virus neutralization test. The neutralizing antibody titer could be detected above 0.5 IU. The strip did not change of performance when stored at room temperature for 12 months. It may offer reference of neutralizing antibody titer level after dogs immuned rabies vaccine and determin whether the dogs need to be immuned again.
