ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the influence of anti-depression therapy on inflammatory cytokines and quality of life(QOL) in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS) complicating depression.Methods Ninety-four patients with ACS complicating depression(HAMD total score ≥8) were randomly divided into the treatment group and control group,47 cases in each group.The control group was given the conventional drug therapy,pantoprazole 40 mg /d,on this basis the treatment group was given sertraline 50 mg/d.The treatment course in the two groups was 6 months.The change of HAMD score,inflammatory cytokines,QOL and incidence of adverse cardiovascular events were observed and compared between the two groups.Results The HAMD score after 3-,6-month treatment in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P0.05).Conclusion The antidepressant therapy is safe and effective for treating ACS patients,can effectively improve the depression emotion,inhibits inflammatory reaction,relieves somatic symptoms,and improves QOL.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical significance of Chirp-ASSR and the characteristics of hearing loss patients by ASSR(auditory steady-state responses) under Chirp stimulation.Methods A total of 136 hearing loss children (5～10 years old) with 272 ears were distributed into four groups based on 500 Hz,1 000 Hz,2 000 Hz and 4 000 Hz auditory threshold arithmetic average:20～dB HL,40～dB HL,60～dB HL,and≥80 dB HL groups.To compare the correlation of the PTA and Chirp-ASSR in different frequencies domain through SPSS statistics 19.0 software,the data were used T-test and Pearson analysis.Results ①The group(≥80 dB HL) achieved a statistically significant higher reaction threshold than pure tone threshold.②The correlation index γ'of PTA and Chirp-ASSR showed a decline along with the hearing loss increase;It increased along with the test frequency,there was a significant difference between 500 Hz and 4 000 Hz(P＜0.05).Conclusion Chirp-ASSR is a frequency-specific electrophysiological test method,it could reflect the truthful listening ability,especially in mild,moderate,and severe hearing loss children.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyse the effects of mandibular swing approach in the treatment of the tumors in infratemporal fossa. Methods:11 patients with tumors in infratemporal fossa treated by the surgical operation with mandibular swing approach. The mandi-ble cut was at the front of foramina mentale in 5 cases, at the front of mandible angle in 4 cases and at the middle of chin in 2 cases re-spectively. Results:According to the nature, location, size and the relationship of the tumors with peripheral nerve and blood vessels, flexible selection of the position of mandibular cut could fully expose and completely remove the infratemporal fossa tumor. Conclusion:Surgical treatment of the tumors in infratemporal fossa by mandibular swing approach is safe and effective.
ABSTRACT
1 1 patients with moderate or severe crowding in the anterior arch were treated with 4 premolar extraction.After canine distaliza-tion first approach,the teeth were aligned and leveled.The results of the study suggest that,with strict implementation of indication,this method may be a viable treatment for the moderate or severe crowding anterior.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore effects and mechanism of penhyclidine hydrochloride (PHC) on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in rat.Methods Sixty Sprague Dawley (SD) adult male rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(SHAM group),myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury group(MIRI group) and penhyclidine hydrochloride treatment (PHC group),and 20 rats in every group.Compared left ventricular function of 3 groups after 24 h of ischemia reperfusion.Selected 10 rats of every group and compared the myocardial infarction size after ischemia reperfusion,and the less 10 rats' the level of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-αt) and nuclear factor-kB(NF-kB) in myocardial tissue were measured.Results After 24 h of ischemia reperfusion,there was no significant myocardial infarction size in SHAM group,while that in MIRI group were (39.4± 3.7)％,higher than that in PHC group (20.5 ± 2.3)％,and the difference was significant (P ＜ 0.01).The level of left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) of rats in SHAM,MIRI and PHC groups were (0.138 ± 0.024),(0.457 ± 0.032) and (0.280 ± 0.027) ml respectively,left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV) were (1.012 ± 0.065),(1.395 ± 0.076) and (1.183 ± 0.102) ml respectively,and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were (85.6 ± 7.3) ％,(43.2 ± 4.5) ％ and (64.8 ± 5.1) ％ respectively,and there were statistically significant differences between groups (F =54.12,32.70,35.46,P ＜ 0.001).The level of TNF-αtand NF-kB in rats of SHAM,MIRI and PHC group were (5.4 s0.7),(34.2 ±2.9) and (21.6 ± 1.3) pg/mg respectively and (87.6 ± 7.3),(134.2 ± 9.6) and (116.3 ± 8.7) respectively,and there were statistically significant differences between groups (F =59.40,17.97,P ＜ 0.001).There were statistically significant differences between MIRI and SHAM groups,PHC and SHAM groups in terms of above factors (P ＜0.05).Conclusion PHC can decrease the inflammatory reaction and protect the myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in rat.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the characteristics of auditory brainstem response by chirp and click stimuli in normal hearing children.Methods A total of 97 children (194 ears)with normal hearing were recruited,including 50 male (100 ears),and 47 female (94 ears).The CE-chirp and the click acoustic stimulation were used to,and the ABR waveforms and latencies were obtained.ResuIts The chirp-ABR Ⅰ wave recognition rate (36%)was significantly lower than that of click-ABR (100%).At 80 dB nHL,chirp-ABR V wave latency was shorter than click-ABR,the difference was statistically significant (P0.05).At 80 dB nHL,no statistical significance of two kinds of a-coustic stimulation of ABR V wave amplitude difference (P>0.05).At 50 dB nHL,chirp-ABR significantly in-creased than click-ABR V wave amplitude with statistically significant differences (P0.05 ).ConcIusion The chirp acoustic stimulation produced the larger response amplitude,and was faster,demonstrating the noticeable advantages to tes-ting children.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the operation treatment of gallbladder carcinoma(GBC). Methods The clinical data of 132 patients with GBC from 1980 to 1999 were analysed. Results The mean age was 55 years and the occurrence sex ratio in female/male was 1.5∶1. Gallstone was found in 80% of the patients, and 87.1% of the GBC were adenocarcinoma. Before December 1990(forward group), simple cholecystectomy were performed on 11 cases, radical cholecystectomy on 9 cases, extended radical cholecystectomy on 5 cases, palliative extra- or intra- drainge on 15 cases, surgical biopsy on 30% cases. Hospital death occurred in 4 cases, the postoperative complications occurred in 20 cases including biliary fistula in 4 cases, pancreatic fistula in 2 cases. Since January 1991(latter group), radical simple cholecystectomy were performed on 2 cases, radical cholecystectomy on 16 cases, extended radical cholecystectomy on 24 cases; palliative extra- or intra- drainge in 9 cases, surgical biopsy on 8 cases. Hospital death occurred in 1 cases; postoperative complications in 12 cases, including biliary fistula in 1 cases, pancreatic fistula in 1 cases. Radical resection rate was 35.7% in forword group, 72.6% in latter group. Conclusions Surgical tech-nique progress and application with Peng's Multifunctional Operative Dissector can improve the resection rate of GBC. Extended redical resection is an effective and active method to treat middle or late stage GBC.
ABSTRACT
AIM: Supercritical CO_2 extraction of Rhizoma Chuanxiong volatile oil was studied under conditions of extraction temperature between 33-48 ℃,pressure between 10-25 MPa and CO_2 flow rate between 2-4 L?min -1 .Influence of extraction conditions on solubility and mass transfer rate were analyzed. METHODS: Based on plug flow in fixed bed,experimental extraction curves were evaluated using a model put forward by Stastova.And the effects of extraction conditions on mass transfer coefficients were also analyzed. RESULTS: Coefficient of mass transfer was slowly increased as the extraction temperature elevated,and was in accord with flow and in contrast with pressure. CONCLUSION:The method has a practical use value in the extraction of Rhizoma Chuanxiong volatile oil.
