RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the evaluation of disease perception, treatment compliance and community follow-up services of community schizophrenia patients, family members and personnel in Shantou City, and to provide a reference basis for improving the quality of management treatment.Methods:With the method of stratified sampling qualitative research, a community sample of 17 198 patients with schizophrenia in seven districts or county in Shantou City were sampled from February to August 2019, with 2 towns being drawn from each district or county, and 10 patients, 10 family members and 3 personnel were selected in each town. The evaluation of disease perception, treatment compliance and community follow-up services were investigated and analyzed. Respondents were eventually included in 137 patients, 138 family members and 41 personnel.The interviewees were conducted with semi-structured interviews, the data were collected according to traditional methods, and the descriptive statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS 12.0.Results:(1)34.3% of patients and 32.6% of the family members were not fully aware of the disease.22.6% of the patients and 23.2% of the family members had a sense of ill shame. (2)26.3% of patients did not comply with treatment, 29.9% of patients had not insight, 53.3% of patients and 24.6% of family members on the side effects of drugs and addiction understood improperly, and, 35.0% of patients and 13.0% of the family had a misunderstanding of illness and using drugs. (3)29.2% of patients and 31.2% of their families were tired of taking long-term medication, 24.8% of patients and 21.0% of their families felt socially isolated, and, 17.5% felt unsupported and 18.8% of their families admitted that they did not care enough about patients. (4)31.4% of patients did not actively receive follow-up services, 37.2% of patients and 20.3% of family members did not cooperate with follow-up doctors, and, 21.2% of patients and 10.1% of family members were not satisfied with follow-up services. (5)The personnel of psychiatric care could basically grasp the conditions of patients in the jurisdiction and carried out follow-up services on a regular basis (90.2%), master emergency disposal methods (92.7%), and have carried out training (97.6%). However, the psychiatric practice of the personnel were lower than (58.5%) and most lying part-time (78.0%), the average length of service was 5.7±1.4 years. The personnel satisfaction with the community follow-up service was higher (95.1%), but most of them thought that the psychiatric care was more difficult (36.6%), and were dissatisfied with the multi-functional staff to undertake a number of public services (31.7%).Conclusion:The management treatment project of mental disorders services in Shantou City show initial results.The patients were satisfied with the community follow-up service, but the patients and their families still have low level of cognition, poor compliance, obvious negative emotions, and have concerns about drug treatment.It is necessary to strengthen the professionalization of personnel, to carry out early mental health education and rational emotional behavior training for patients and their families.
RESUMEN
Long non-coding RNAs ( LncRNAs) are a class of RNA transcripts greater than 200 nt in length without the func-tion of protein encoding.LncRNAs, which consist of a great variety of categories and structures, regulate the associated gene expression on multiple levels, including chromatin modification, transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation, and epigenetic modification. Moreover, LncRNAs are widely involved in the physiological and pathological processes.Recently, a large number of studies have found that the abnormal expression of LncRNAs is closely related to the occurrence, development, invasion and metastasis of tumor, and plays an essential role in pathogensis of colorectal cancer.In this paper, the function of LncRNAs in colorectal cancer is reviewed, which provides a theoretical evidence for its use in the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer in clinical study.
RESUMEN
Invasion and migration are distinctive features of the malignant tumors.Studies showed that epithelial-mesenchymal transition ( EMT) , a conversion process with the loss of epithelial cell features and the gain of mesenchymal phenotype has been recog-nized as a key element of invasion and migration of malignancy.When EMT occurs, the downregulation of E-cadherins and the loss of adhesion in extracellular matrix play a critical role which are regarded as important indicators in the assessment of EMT.The latest re-searches indicated that integrin, one of the cell adhesion molecules family, was involved in EMT directly or indirectly through mediating either adhesion among cells, extracellular matrix or signal pathways by activating multiple kinases tyrosine phosphorylation cascade. The relationship between EMT and integrin is summarized in this article.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the feasibility and proper time of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC)for the treatment of gallstones complicated with acute biliary pancreatitis(ABP).Methods From January 1999 to August 2007,72 patients with gallstones complicated with ABP were treated with LC in our department.Among the patients,early LC was performed on 56 cases when their symptoms of pancreatitis were relieved,elective LC was carried out in 8 patients,while emergent LC was required in the other 8 patients because of failure of conservative treatment.Results The LC was successfully completed in all the cases with a mean operation time of 63 min(30-135 min),and a mean blood loss of 50 ml(20-230 ml).Intraoperative cholangiography was carried out in 5 patients,4 of them were diagnosed as having stones in the lower common bile duct,and were then cured by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)and endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST)after LC.Only one patient was converted to open surgery.No perioperative death,or postoperative biliary hemorrhage or leakage occurred in this series.After the operation,pathological examinations revealed multiple small or sand-like stones in the resected gallbladders.The patients were followed up for 2 months to 8 years(mean 19 months);during this period,no recurrent pancreatitis or cholelithiasis was found.Conclusions LC is feasible and safe for patients with gallstones complicated with acute pancreatitis at early stage if perioperative treatments has been properly carried out.Preoperative MRCP,intraoperative cholangiography,and postoperative EST are essential auxiliary techniques for the treatment.
