RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effect of health management on hypertension control.Methods Patients with high blood pressure and hypertensive risk factors were selected from two communities in Suzhou City of Jiangsu Province.The subjects were then randomly assigned to 2 groups(63 in each group).One group received comprehensive health management for the prevention and treatment of hypertension,and the other group received traditional anti-hypertensive treatment.Systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),and medicine cost were compared at 1 year.Results In the health management group,blood pressure and its related risk factors were effectively controlled,and the mean SBP or DBP was(130.06 ± 17.51)mm Hg or(81.81 ± 8.75)mm Hg(1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa),respectively.The cost of anti-hypertensive medicine of the health management group was largely decreased.Conclusion General health management shows a better anti-hypertensive effect than traditional therapy.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE To discuss the application of tachypleus amebocyte lysate test in transfusion reaction. METHODS Based on agglutination when tachypleus amebocyte lysate test encountered bacterial endotoxin, the quantity of the bacterial endotoxin was tested. RESULTS Twenty-three cases were analyzed with tachypleus amebocyte lysate test, the main reasons were excessive pyrogen, improper combined drug compatibility, excessive agents or unqualified pyrogen of the agent added, pollutions on transfusion devices and air in the treatment room, disobeying axenic operation rules, overlong drug dispensing, too fast transfusion speed, etc. CONCLUSIONS On prevention of transfusion reaction, all the axenic operation rules should be strictly followed, single dose transfusion, to reduce transfusion reaction.
RESUMEN
Objective: To compare the biotype and genetic similarity between groups of commensal and pathogenic strains of candida species. Methods:Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was used to analyse the type of Candida albicans. Results: 12 pathogenic isolates of Candida albicans, 3 commensal isolates of Candida abicans and 3 isolates of pathogenic non-albicans were obtained. The similarity coefficient of albicans with non-albicans was 51.7% by RAPD. Intra-candida similarity coefficient was more than 70%. Both the commensal and pathogenic isolates showed the genetically similar to C. albicans. Intro-isolate DNA polymorphism was observed by RAPD. Conclusion: Both the commensal and pathogenic groups contain a major cluster of genetically similar C. albicans isolates.
