ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the compliance and the influencing factors of the children with congenital hypothyroidism (CH).Methods 231 children with CH were collected for this study.The questionnaire survey and referring the case were used to collect relative factors.According to regular follow -up treatment,the children were divided into two groups,one group was good compliance and the other one was bad compliance.The results were ana-lyzed by two -independent sample t -test,2 -test and unconditioned logistic regression analysis.Results (1)Blood TSH(χ2 =59.870,P =0.00) and blood FT4 (χ2 =6.468,P =0.01) were normal,short distance from the hospital (χ2 =16.375,P =0.00),level of education of their mothers was high(χ2 =7.483,P =0.02),and regular compli-ance treatment of children with CH(χ2 =7.483,P =0.024) was good.(2) Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that serum TSH value(OR =17.135),the short distance(OR =1.692) and diagnosis of CH(OR =4.028) were introduced into the logistic regression model (all P <0.05).Conclusion It is essential to take measures actively and reinforce the management of children with long distance,low -educated,and the diagnosis of TSH.More-over,enhancing the regular treatment compliance of children with CH is the key to improve the growth and develop-ment status of children with CH.
ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the effectiveness of the acupuncture treatmeat on anxiety compared with non-acupuncture intervention. Method All of the randomized or quasi-randomized trials involving were reviewed systemantically with the Meta analysis method. The homogeneity test was mode, the standandised mean difference (95% CI) and add risk (OR, 95% CI) were tested. Results Homogeneity test was made among the trials and no significant difference between the acupucture and non-acupuncture groups. Fixed effect model was used. ORP =1.759 419 579, 95% CI (1.336 391, 2.316 356), there was significant difference between the acupuncture group and medicine group as the interventions used to treat anxiety while there was no difference between the two group on the influence in HAMA. Conclusion The Meta analysis results was a trend in favor of acupuncture effectiveness. It seems no serious adverse reactions have been found. But there was no sufficient reliable evidence due to the low quality of the trials and possible publication bias. Further randomized, double blind controlled trials are needed.
