RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the effect of comprehensive nursing education on anxiety, depression, quality of life and survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after surgery.Methods:A total of 136 HCC patients were randomly divided into two groups: general nursing education group and comprehensive nursing education group. The comprehensive nursing education group carried out 12 months of health belief education, psychological care, care activities and telephone condolence. The routine nursing group received basic education for 12 months. The changes of anxiety and depression were assessed by hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). The quality of life (QOL) of participants within 12 months was assessed using the European research and treatment cancer quality of life questionnaire (QLQ-C30). The 3-year survival of the two groups was compared.Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in baseline data. At the 9th and 12th month, the HADS-A score of the comprehensive nursing education group was significantly lower than that of the general nursing group ( P< 0.05). In the 12th month, the overall health of QLQ-C30 in the comprehensive nursing education group was better than that in the general nursing group ( P<0.05). The QLQ-C30 function score of the comprehensive nursing education group at the 12th month was better than that of the general nursing group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in QLQ-C30 symptom scores between the two groups at all time points ( P>0.05). The overall survival of the patients in the comprehensive nursing education group was better than that in the general nursing group ( P=0.026). Conclusion:the comprehensive nursing education can reduce the anxiety and depression of HCC patients after surgery, and can improve their quality of life and survival.

RESUMEN
Objective To study the effect of modified Shengmal decotion treating viral myocarditis, and on the basis of syndrome differentiation, to discuss the type and period for treating VM.Methods The PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, the Chinese biomedical literature database(SinoMed), China hownet(CNKI), and VIP database(VIP) were retrieved for the articles on VM treated by modified Shengmal decoction with RCT method. RevMan 5.0 software was adopted for Meta-analysis.ResultsA total of 7 articles and 495 patients were involved. The results showed the modified Shengmal decoction treatment group had statistical difference to the control group in treating VM[OR(95%CI) was 3.61 (2.11,6.16),Z=4.70,P<0.01]. Among them, the decoctions contalning milkvetch root or not had statistical difference compared to the control group[contalning milkvetch root[OR (95% CI) was 2.67 (1.29, 5.52),Z=2.64,P=0.008; not contalning milkvetch rootOR (95%CI) was 5.11 (2.30,11.38),Z=3.99,P<0.01].Conclusion Modified Shengmal decoction has certaln effects in treating VM of Qi and yin deficiency type or VM in the advanced stage showing Qi and yin deficiency. The effectiveness of adding milkvetch root in Shengmal decoction to treat VM should be further discussed, the use of milkvetch root must be based on the premise of careful syndrome differentiation.
