Objective: To explore the relationship between Chinese medicine (CM) constitutive susceptibility and syndrome diversity in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods: Epidemiologic investigation on constitution adopting the "Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire" (CCMQ), and survey on syndrome type by CM syndrome scale (preliminary) were carried out in 180 DN patients. Cluster analysis on symptom items was used to determine the syndrome type, and canonical correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between patients'' constitution and syndrome. Results: Baseline levels in all enrolled patients were not different statistically. Cluster analysis showed 8 syndromes existed in DN patients, namely: Ⅰ, qi-yin deficiency with qi-stagnancy type; Ⅱ, yin-yang deficiency with heat-water-blood stasis type; Ⅲ, qi-yin deficiency with dampness-heat type; Ⅳ, yin-yang deficiency with blood-stasis and heat type; Ⅴ, qi-yin deficiency with stagnant heat type; Ⅵ, yin-yang deficiency with inner dampness-heat stagnancy type; Ⅶ, yin deficiency with heat stagnancy type; and Ⅷ, Kidney (Shen)-Spleen (Pi) deficiency with stagnant heat type. Correlation analysis on the 8 syndromes and the 9 constitutions showed statistical significant correlations between syndrome Ⅲ and dampness-heat constitution (P=0.0001); syndrome Ⅳ and blood-stasis constitution (P=0.0001); and syndrome Ⅶ and yin-deficiency constitution (P=0.0180). Conclusion: Certain relationship revealed between CM constitutions and syndrome types; constitution decides the disease genesis, its syndrome type and prognosis, as well as the change of syndromes. 相似文献

Objective: To identify the position of traditional herbal medicine in dementia research field using mapping technology. Methods: Keywords for dementia and traditional herbal medicine for treating dementia were used to extract scientific articles from the Web of Science database from January 2000 to July 2010. A co- occurrence matrix was created based on the concurrent set of author's keywords occurring in each scientific article, and technology network maps were created from similarity index matrices. Results: Twenty specialized research areas were identified in the dementia field, and the relationship strength was 0.2-0.6. Many research fields were associated with diagnosis and risk factors for dementia. Additionally, the mechanism or cause of dementia is an actively studied field. Traditional herbal medicine for treating dementia was located on a map near the cortical dementia diagnosis and therapy, and frontotemporal dementia research field with a relationship strength of 0.53 and 0.31-0.33 respectively, which demonstrates that traditional herbal medicine for dementia occupies an independent research area with a relationship to existing scientific research fields. Conclusion: Traditional herbal medicine can provide an alternative and complementary approach for treating dementia as evidenced by a scientific mapping analysis. 相似文献

Objective
To observe the effect of Yishen Jiedu Recipe (YSJDR) in retarding the course of chronic renal failure (CRF)Methods
Forty-five patients were divided into two groups, the 22 patients in Group A were treated with low-protein diet and blood pressure controlling therapy only, while the 23 patients in Group B were treated with additional YSJDR. The time (month) for doubling serum creatinine (SCr) level was taken to evaluate the speed of CRF progressionResults
In Group A, the time for SCr increased from 288.4±96.7 μmol/L to 586.3±251.3 μmol/L was 16.7±5.1 months, while in Group B the time for SCr increased from 291.2±101.2 μmol/L to 589.6±257.5 μmol/L was 28.2±8.7 months. Comparison between the two groups showed significant difference (P<0.05 )Conclusion
On the basis of low-protein diet and blood pressure controlling therapy, the additional treatment of YSJDR could markedly retard the progression speed of CRF 相似文献7.
Objective
To explore appropriate methods for the research of the theory of Chinese medicine nature property and find the relationship between Nature-Family-Component of Chinese herbs.Methods
From perspective of systems biology, we used Associate Network to identify useful relationships among “Nature-Family-Component” of Herbs. In this work, Associate Network combines association rules mining method and network construction method to evaluate the complicate relationship among “Nature-Family-Component” of herbs screened.Results
The results of association rules mining showed that the families had a close relationship with nature properties of herbs. For example, the families of Magnoliaceae, Araceae had a close relationship with hot nature with confidence of 100%, the families of Cucurbitaceae has a close relationship to cold nature with confidence of 90.91%. Moreover, the results of constructed Associate Network implied that herbs belonging to the same families generally had the same natures. In addition, some herbs belonging to different families may also have same natures when they contain the same main components.Conclusion
These results implied that the main components of herbs might affect their natures; the relationships between families and natures were based on the main compounds of herbs. 相似文献8.

Background
Climate change models predict increasing frequency of extreme weather. One of the challenges hospitals face is how to make sure they have adequate staffing at various times of the year.Aims
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of this severe inclement weather on hospital admissions, operative workload and cost in the Irish setting. We hypothesised that there is a direct relationship between cold weather and workload in a regional orthopaedic trauma unit.Methods
Trauma orthopaedic workload in a regional trauma unit was examined over 2 months between December 2009 and January 2010. This corresponded with a period of severe inclement weather.Results
We identified a direct correlation between the drop in temperature and increase in workload, with a corresponding increase in demand on resources.Conclusions
Significant cost savings could be made if these injuries were prevented. While the information contained in this study is important in the context of resource planning and staffing of hospital trauma units, it also highlights the vulnerability of the Irish population to wintery weather. 相似文献9.

Objective
The effect of prevention and treatment of Xinkang oral liquid, ( , XKOL) on experimental coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) myocarditis mice model were investigated.Methods
The mice were inoculated intraperitoneally with 0.3 ml of 105 TCID50 of CVB3 to induce acute viral myocarditis model. These mice were divided into model control group (Group A), prevention high dosage group (Group B) and prevention low dosage group (Group C), treatment high dosage group (Group D) and treatment low dosage group (Group E), respectively. In addition, XKOL control group (Group F) and normal control group (Group G) were not infected with CVB3 intraperitoneally. The administration of XKOL in Group B and C began 2 days before virus infection. All animals were sacrificed on day 20 for evaluation.Results
Histological examination showed extensive myocardial necrosis and cell infiltration in most of Group A mice, but necrosis and cell infiltration were less severe in Group B,C,D and E mice. Thymus weight in Group B,C,D and E mice were heavier and less cell depletion occurred than those in Group A.Conclussion
The XKOL could effectively inhibit myocardial CVB3 replication, reduce the myocardial inflammatory response, lower incidence rate of myocarditis and prevent the disease associated lymphoid organ atrophy in this animal models. 相似文献11.

Background
Platelets are involved in atherosclerosis. Mean platelet volume (MPV) could be a marker of platelet activation. We aim to determine whether MPV levels were correlated with the presence of atherosclerotic disease in carotid arteries of patients with stroke.Methods
We recruited 215 patients with atherothrombotic stroke. All the participants underwent ultrasonographic evaluation of their extracranial carotid arteries. MPV was measured in automated hematology analysis system. The subjects were divided according to plaques and severity of carotid stenosis. Univariate and multivariate statistical analyses and a ROC curve to predict carotid stenosis were performed.Results
Univariate analysis showed a positive relationship between MPV and the degree of carotid atherosclerosis (p?0.00007), and with carotid intima to media thickness (p?0.00002). In ROC curve, a MPV cut-off of 11.25?fl was obtained for a sensibility of 70% and a specificity of 71% (p?0.02). Multivariate analysis showed significant correlation with severity of carotid stenosis, when MPV was higher than 11.25?fl (OR: 2.9, p?0.00007).Conclusions
Our results indicate that an elevated MPV could be an easily measurable marker of severity of carotid stenosis in patients with atherothrombotic stroke. 相似文献12.
Introduction
Pain that has lasted for 2 months is considered to be persistent, as defined by The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP). To date, there is no data on the incidence of persistent pain after vaginal delivery available for Ireland. The aim of this pilot study is to determine the incidence of persistent pain in women post-vaginal delivery at 8 weeks postpartum in the Coombe Women’s & Infants University Hospital, Dublin (CWIUH).Methods
50 women post-vaginal delivery at the CWIUH were recruited over a 2-month period. At 8 weeks after delivery, the patients were contacted by telephone interview to assess the presence of pain, if any, using a modified painDETECT Questionnaire.Results
The incidence of persistent pain at 8 weeks from our pilot study is 28 %. 相似文献13.

Background
Surveillance of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is an essential component of a CDI preventative programme.Aims
The aim of this study was to evaluate two methods of CDI surveillance.Methods
Prevalence of CDI, antibiotic use and associated co-morbidity was assessed weekly on two wards over 6?weeks. In addition, CDI incidence surveillance was performed on all new CDI cases over a 13-week period. Cases were assessed for CDI risk factors, disease severity, response to treatment and outcome at 6?months.Results
Clostridium difficile infection prevalence was 3.5% (range 2.9?C6.1%) on the medical ward and 1.1% (range 0?C3.5%) on the surgical ward. Patients on the medical ward were older and more likely to be colonised with MRSA; however, recent antibiotic use was more prevalent among surgical patients. Sixty-one new CDI cases were audited. Patients were elderly (mean age 71?years) with significant co-morbidity (median age adjusted Charlson co-morbidity score 5). CDI ribotypes included 027 (29 cases) 078 (5) and 106 (4). Eight patients developed severe CDI, seven due to 027. Antibiotic use was common with 56% receiving three or more antibiotics in the preceding 8?weeks. Twenty-four patients had died at 6?months, five due to CDI.Conclusion
Clostridium difficile infection prevalence gives a broad overview of CDI and points to areas that require more detailed surveillance and requires little time. However, patient-based CDI incidence surveillance provides a more useful analysis of CDI risk factors, disease and outcome for planning preventative programmes and focusing antibiotic stewardship efforts. 相似文献14.
Background
Intrathecal opioid administration yields high quality analgesia with an associated low incidence of side effects and complication. The benefits of spinal “opioid only technique” include absence of neuronal blockade, infusion pump malfunction and sympathetic blockade. This technique declined after serious side effects were reported in the 1990s.Aims
To report on the safety and efficacy of the intrathecal catheter repeat bolus morphine technique for postoperative analgesia in patients having thoracotomy.Methods
A 22 gauge intrathecal catheter was inserted through the lumbar 3–4 interspace prior to induction of anaesthesia for postoperative analgesia. Repeat bolus preservative-free morphine was administered for 48 h, target VAS was <4.Results
The mean morphine administered via ITC in 48 h was 2.56 mg (±SD 0.88 mg). Only one patient required rescue morphine. There were no serious complications or sequelae at 6-month follow-up.Conclusions
Intrathecal morphine for post-op analgesia is efficacious and safe in a post-thoracotomy population. 相似文献15.

Background
Vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with hyperhomocysteinaemia, which is associated with atherosclerosis and increased mortality. High levels of vitamin B12 have also been associated with increased mortality in certain patient populations.Aims
We examined vitamin B12 and homocysteine status and mortality rates in a population of Irish community-dwelling elders over a 3-year period.Methods
Prospective, community-based observational cohort study.Results
Subjects in the highest quartile of homocysteine had increased mortality rates (14.68 vs. 7.32%, relative risk 2.09). This relationship was attenuated when controlled for the presence or absence of a history of stroke or myocardial infarction. There was no relationship between vitamin B12 status and mortality during the observation period.Conclusion
Vitamin B12 levels are not associated with death rates in Irish community-dwelling elders. Homocysteine levels are associated with mortality and may act via the mechanism of atherosclerotic disease. 相似文献16.
Aim
To evaluate the role of fasting plasma ghrelin levels [ln(ghrelin)] and polymorphisms of ghrelin gene in Chinese obese children.Methods
Genotyping for ghrelin polymorphism was performed in 230 obese and 100 normal weight children. Among them, plasma ghrelin levels were measured in 91 obese and 23 health subjects.Results
(1) Bivariate correlation analysis showed the ln(ghrelin) was inversely correlated with abnormality of glucose metabolism (r = ?0.240, P = 0.023). Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that abnormality of glucose metabolism was an independent determinant of plasma ghrelin levels (P = 0.023). (2) There was no difference in frequency of Leu72Met polymorphisms between obese and control groups (36.09 vs. 41.00%).Conclusion
Ghrelin is associated with obesity in childhood, especially associated with the glucose homeostasis. Lower ghrelin levels might be a result of obesity, but not a cause of obesity. The Leu72Met polymorphism of ghrelin gene is not associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome in Chinese children. 相似文献17.

Background
Ankle fracture is a common injury and there is an increasingly greater emphasis on operative fixation.Aim
The purpose of the study was to determine the complication rate in this cohort of patients and, in doing so, determine risk factors which predispose to surgical site infection.Methods
A prospective cohort study was performed at a tertiary referral trauma center examining risk factors for surgical site infection in operatively treated ankle fractures.Results
Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed. Female gender and advancing age were determined to be the risk factors in univariate analysis. Drain usage and peri-operative pyrexia were found to be significant for infection in multivariate analysis.Conclusion
This study allows surgeons to identify those at increased risk of infection and counsel them appropriately. It also allows for a high level of vigilance with regard to soft tissue handling intra-operatively in this higher risk group. 相似文献18.
Objective: To analyze the correlation of Chinese medicine syndrome evolvement and cardiovascular events in patients with stable coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: This prospective cohort study investigated and collected the clinical information of patients with stable CHD and observed the syndrome type at the baseline and 6-month at follow-up, as well as the cardiovascular events during the 6-month and 12-month follow-up. The patients were divided into the event group and the non-event group. The interaction and the impact of syndrome evolvement on cardiovascular events were examined through multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis and the results were verified by Chi-square test. Results: Totally 1,333 of 1,503 stable CHD patients enrolled met the inclusion criteria of MDR analysis. Among them, 959 (71.9%) cases were males and 374 (28.1%) cases were females. Thirty seven cases had cardiovascular events during 6 to 12 months after the study began. The results of the MDR analysis and verification using Chi-square test showed that the development of cardiovascular events was positively correlated with interaction between blood stasis and toxic syndrome at the baseline, blood stasis at the baseline and qi deficiency at the 6-month follow-up, toxic syndrome at the baseline and qi deficiency at the 6-month follow-up, toxic syndrome at the base line and blood stasis at the 6-month follow-up, qi deficiency and blood stasis at the 6-month follow-up (P〈0.05 for all). Conclusions: Blood stasis, toxic syndrome and qi deficiency are important factors of stable CHD. There are positive correlation between cardiovascular events and syndrome evolution from blood stasis to qi deficiency, from toxic syndrome to qi deficiency and from toxic syndrome to blood stasis, indicating the pathogenesis of toxin consuming qi, toxin leading to blood-stasis in stable CHD patients prone to recurrent cardiovascular events. 相似文献

Background
Timeliness of care is an important dimension of health care quality. The determining factors of less timely care and their influence on the survival of patients with lung cancer (LC) remain uncertain.Aims
To analyse the delays in the diagnosis and treatment of LC in our health area, the factors associated with the timeliness of care and their possible relationship with the survival of these patients.Methods
A retrospective study was conducted on all patients with a cytohistologically confirmed diagnosis of LC between 1 June 2005 and 31 May 2008. The time delays for consultation (specialist delay), diagnosis (diagnosis delay), and treatment (treatment delay), were analysed, as well as the factors associated with these delays and the influence of the timeliness of care on survival.Results
A total of 307 cases were included (87 % males). The mean specialist delay was 53.6 days (median 35 days), diagnosis delay 31.5 days (median 18 days), treatment delay 23.5 days (median 14 days). The greater age of the patient and a more advanced stage were associated with a shorter specialist delay. Male sex, a more advanced stage, and poor general status were associated with a shorter treatment delay. The survival is longer in patients with a longer treatment delay.Conclusions
The delay in the diagnosis in our population seems to be excessively long. The greater the age, a more advanced tumour stage, male sex, and poor general health status are associated with shorter delays. A longer treatment delay is associated with a longer survival. 相似文献20.
