住院患者入院时血糖水平与医疗费用、疾病预后的相关研究

目的探讨住院患者人院时不同血糖水平与住院时间、医疗费用及疾病预后的关系。方法选取2009年11月至2011年7月期间人院的4868例患者,按入院24h内测得的血糖水平分为非高血糖组3429例、高血糖组1439例,后者包括糖尿病和应激性高血糖患者;根据患者年龄分为非老年组（年龄〈60岁）2532例和老年组（年龄≥60岁）2336例;其中278例冠心病患者再分为高血糖组120例和非高血糖组158例。各组间进行有关数据比较。结果高血糖组患者的住院天数、医疗费用和总病死率均显著高于非高血糖组（中位数住院日：15vs10d,P〈0．01;中位数医疗费用：14064．7vs8980．9元,P〈0．01;死亡率：2．92％vs0．61％,P〈0．01）。按年龄分组后,无论是非老年组还是老年组中糖尿病和应激性高血糖患者的医疗费用均明显高于非高血糖患者,住院日明显延长;应激性高血糖患者的医疗费用明显高于糖尿病患者;非老年组中应激性高血糖患者的死亡率明显高于非高血糖患者,但与糖尿病患者相比无明显差异,老年组糖尿病和应激性高血糖患者的死亡率无明显差异,但均明显高于非高血糖患者。冠心病患者中糖尿病和应激性高血糖患者与非高血糖患者的年龄无明显差异,前两组的医疗费用明显高于非高血糖组,住院日更长（分别为14,15和12d）、死亡率更高（分别为6．41％,7．14％和0．63％）。结论入院时高血糖水平预示患者有更高的医疗花费、更长的住院时间和更高的死亡率。     

Use of antibiotic prophylaxis in elective inguinal hernia repair in adults in London and south-east England: a cross-sectional survey

Purpose

Evidence regarding whether or not antibiotic prophylaxis is beneficial in preventing post-operative surgical site infection in adult inguinal hernia repair is conflicting. A recent Cochrane review based on 17 randomised trials did not reach a conclusion on this subject. This study aimed to describe the current practice and determine whether clinical equipoise is prevalent.

Methods

Surgeons in training were recruited to administer the Survey of Hernia Antibiotic Prophylaxis usE survey to consultant-level general surgeons in London and the south-east of England on their practices and beliefs regarding antibiotic prophylaxis in adult elective inguinal hernia repair. Local prophylaxis guidelines for the participating hospital sites were also determined.

Results

The study was conducted at 34 different sites and received completed surveys from 229 out of a possible 245 surgeons, a 93 % response rate. Overall, a large majority of hospital guidelines (22/28) and surgeons’ personal beliefs (192/229, 84 %) supported the use of single-dose pre-operative intravenous antibiotic prophylaxis in inguinal hernia repair, although there was considerable variation in the regimens in use. The most widely used regimen was intravenous co-amoxiclav (1.2 g). Less than half of surgeons were adherent to their own hospital antibiotic guidelines for this procedure, although many incorrectly believed that they were following these.

Conclusion

In the south-east of England, there is a strong majority of surgical opinion in favour of the use of antibiotic prophylaxis in this procedure. It is therefore likely to be extremely difficult to conduct further randomised studies in the UK to support or refute the effectiveness of prophylaxis in this commonly performed procedure.     

室壁应力与应变的关系评价高血压病左室收缩功能

目的　探索用室壁应力 (stress)与应变 (strain)的关系评价高血压病左室收缩功能的临床价值。方法　研究对象为 5 5例高血压病患者和 3 0例健康人。应用超声心动图计算左室射血分数 (EF)、心指数 (CI)、重量指数 (LVMI)和相对室壁厚度 (RWT) ,并联合袖带肱动脉血压值计算左心室收缩期室壁经线峰值应力 (Pσm)。根据LVMI和RWT将高血压病分为左室正常构型和左室重构两组。在数字化超声工作站中应用定量组织速度成像 (QTVI)获取左室前壁心肌 2个节段长轴应变曲线和峰值收缩应变值 (PSS)。结果　①以EF ,CI表示的心脏收缩功能 ,在高血压病左室正常构型组值中无明显变化 ;而在高血压病左室重构组中下降 ,差异具有极显著意义 (P <0 .0 1)。②Pσm在高血压病两组中较对照组均有增高 (P <0 .0 5～ 0 .0 1) ,两组间比较差异具有极显著意义 (P <0 .0 1)。③高血压病两组左室前壁基底段 (Bas)和中段 (Mid)的 pSS值均显著下降 (P <0 .0 1) ,两组间比较差异具有极显著意义 (P <0 .0 1)。④直线相关分析结果显示高血压病两组Pσm与PSSBas和PSSMid均呈显著负相关。根据正常构型组Pσm与PSSBas直线回归方程计算 ,在相同Pσm水平 ,左室重构组PSSBas的实测值显著低于预测值及实测值与预测值的比值较正常构型组显著下降 ,差     

Kümmell病的临床治疗进展

目的:系统评价自体骨移植与骨形成蛋白治疗成人长骨骨折不愈合相关指标,为成人长骨骨折不愈合治疗提供参考依据。方法:计算机检索PuMed、Embase、Cochrane图书馆、中国知网(CNKI)、万方数据期刊全文数据库及中国生物医学文献数据库(CBM)发表的对于自体骨移植与骨形成蛋白治疗成人长骨骨折不愈合的随机对照试验,检索时间从建库至2019年3月。由2名研究者按照纳入和排除标准独立进行筛选文献,提取资料,并采用Jadad评价量表对纳入的文献进行质量评价。采用RevMan 5.3统计学软件对两种方法的感染发生率、成功愈合率、二次手术率、住院时间及术中失血量进行Meta分析。结果:共纳入7个随机对照试验研究,共652例患者,自体骨移植组有410例,骨形成蛋白组有242例。Meta分析结果显示:自体骨移植组与骨形成蛋白组在感染发生率[RR=1.32,95%CI(0.90,1.93),P=0.16],成功愈合率[RR=0.95,95%CI(0.84,1.08),P=0.43],二次手术率[RR=1.16,95%CI(0.43,3.12),P=0.76]及住院时间[MD=0.69,95%CI(-0.38,1.75),P=0.21]方面比较差异无统计学意义。自体骨移植组术中失血量明显高于骨形成蛋白组[MD=223.00,95%CI(32.72,413.28),P=0.02]。结论:对于成人长骨骨折不愈合的治疗,骨形成蛋白可以获得和自体骨移植一样的骨折愈合率,同时可以明显减少术中失血量。骨形成蛋白可能更适合成人长骨骨折不愈合的治疗。

Biochemical Method for Inserting New Genetic Information into DNA of Simian Virus 40: Circular SV40 DNA Molecules Containing Lambda Phage Genes and the Galactose Operon of Escherichia coli

We have developed methods for covalently joining duplex DNA molecules to one another and have used these techniques to construct circular dimers of SV40 DNA and to insert a DNA segment containing lambda phage genes and the galactose operon of E. coli into SV40 DNA. The method involves: (a) converting circular SV40 DNA to a linear form, (b) adding single-stranded homodeoxypolymeric extensions of defined composition and length to the 3' ends of one of the DNA strands with the enzyme terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (c) adding complementary homodeoxypolymeric extensions to the other DNA strand, (d) annealing the two DNA molecules to form a circular duplex structure, and (e) filling the gaps and sealing nicks in this structure with E. coli DNA polymerase and DNA ligase to form a covalently closed-circular DNA molecule.     

What matters to users of services? An explorative study to promote shared decision making in health care

Background Involving service users and carers in decisions about their health care is a key feature of health‐care practice. Professional health and social care students need to develop skills and attributes to best enable this to happen. Aims The aims were to explore service user and carer perceptions of behaviours, attributes and context required to enable shared decision making; to compare these perceptions to those of students and academic staff with a view to utilizing the findings to inform the development of student assessment tools. Methods A mixed methods approach was used including action learning groups (ALG) and an iterative process alongside a modified Delphi survey. Participants The ALGs were from an existing service user and carer network. The survey was sent to sixty students, sixty academics and 30 service users from 16 different professional disciplines, spanning four Universities in England. Results The collaborative enquiry process and survey identified general agreement that being open and honest, listening, showing respect, giving time and being up to date were important. The qualitative findings identified that individual interpretation was a key factor. An unexpected result was an insight into possible insecurities of students. Conclusions The findings indicate that distilling rich qualitative information into a format for student assessment tools could be problematic as the individual context could be lost, it is therefore proposed that the information could be better used as a learning rather than assessment tool. Several of those involved identified how they valued the process and found it beneficial.
