动态心电图对体表心电图P-R间期延长的诊断价值

目的 探讨动态心电图对体表心电图P．R间期延长的诊断价值,分析P—R间期延长的临床意义和预后。方法选择2008年1月至2011年8月在昆明医学院第二附属医院住院和门诊心电图有P-R间期延长的患者90例为研究对象．监测其动态心电图。分析P．R间期的变化及阵发性心房颤动、房室结双径路传导、第二度I型房室阻滞、间歇性左右束支阻滞4类心律失常。并且根据P—R间期延长程度分为3组,对比其与上述4类心律失常的关系。结果动态心动图结果中伴发第二度I型房室阻滞2l例（23．33％）、房室结双径路传导17例（18．89％）、间歇性左右束支阻滞9例（10％）、阵发性心房颤动7例（7．78％）。在所有的患者中,P．R间期延长伴发上述4类心律失常发生率为60％。心电图结果中,P-R间期延长50例,显著延长29例,过度延长11例。动态心动图结果中。P。R间期延长32例,显著延长38例,过度延长20例。结论P—R间期延长不应均视为良性和无须干预的心律失常,相反,需要进行进一步动态心动图监测及电生理检查和追踪观察,争取早期发现病变、消除病变,为临床早期诊断、早期治疗提供辅助手段。     

Screening cognition in the elderly with metabolic syndrome

Abstract Background: Metabolic syndrome reaches its highest prevalence in the elderly, and evidence suggests that metabolic syndrome could be an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment. The aims of this study were to detect whether patients with metabolic syndrome have lower cognition and to investigate whether there is a relationship with cognition and single metabolic syndrome components. Methods: We assessed fasting blood glucose (FBG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), and anthropometric measurements. Metabolic syndrome was diagnosed according to National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) criteria. The population sample was divided into two groups according to the presence of metabolic syndrome. Cognitive function was investigated through the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Results: We enrolled 159 elderly subjects (mean age, 69.8±4.8 years). Seventy had metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome subjects had higher hsCRP values (P<0.0001) and lower MMSE scores (P<0.0001) than those without metabolic syndrome. MMSE scores were significantly correlated with body mass index (BMI), hsCRP, metabolic syndrome, the number of metabolic syndrome components, and each of them. However, at multivariate regression analysis, only fasting blood glucose [FBG; B=-0.046; 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.066 to -0.028; P<0.0001] and the number of metabolic syndrome components (B=-0.317; 95% CI -0.572 to -0.010; P=0.042) were found to be independent predictors of lower MMSE scores. Conclusion: We found that subjects with metabolic syndrome have lower MMSE scores than those without, even without symptomatic cognitive impairment, and that the number of metabolic abnormalities is independently associated to lower MMSE scores. We suggest that these patients should always undergo cognitive screening to prevent more severe outcomes.     

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。

Development and psychometric properties of the Self-Efficacy Scale for transfers for caregivers of children requiring transfer assistance

OBJECTIVE: To test the psychometric properties of a newly developed measure of caregiver self-efficacy, the Caregiver Self-Efficacy Scale for Transfers (CSEST), a 14-item questionnaire that measures the perceived self-efficacy of adult caregivers of dependent children and focuses on their perceived abilities and the challenges of assisting a child with restricted transfer ability. DESIGN: Reliability and validity study using survey data. SETTING: Community-based survey study. PARTICIPANTS: Adult caregivers (eg, mother, father, grandparent) of dependent minors who require transfer assistance. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Using the Rasch measurement model, the CSEST was tested for reliability and separation, validity (hierarchical and content), and factor structure. RESULTS: The CSEST yields data with sufficient reliability (reliability indices of .96 and .94 for respondents and items, respectively) as well as sufficient separation of levels of self-efficacy (item separation index, 4.13; person separation index, 5.23). The CSEST has a stable hierarchical structure with adequate content validity (standardized chi2 fit statistics <2.0) and point biserial correlations greater than .67. Factor analysis confirmed 2 insubstantial subscales; the 14-item CSEST accounted for greater than 85% of the total variance. CONCLUSIONS: The CSEST yields reliable data and valid inferences of self-efficacy from adult caregivers of children requiring transfer assistance. The CSEST may identify areas of need and/or difficulty with transfers for parents caring for dependent children.

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。

Ceruloplasmin gene‐deficient mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis show attenuated early disease evolution

We conducted a microarray study to identify genes that are differentially regulated in the spinal cords of mice with the inflammatory disease experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) relative to healthy mice. In total 181 genes with at least a two‐fold increase in expression were identified, and most of these genes were associated with immune function. Unexpectedly, ceruloplasmin (Cp), a ferroxidase that converts toxic ferrous iron to its nontoxic ferric form and also promotes the efflux of iron from astrocytes in the CNS, was shown to be highly upregulated (13.2‐fold increase) in EAE spinal cord. Expression of Cp protein is known to be increased in several neurological conditions, but the role of Cp regulation in CNS autoimmune disease is not known. To investigate this, we induced EAE in Cp gene knockout, heterozygous, and wild‐type mice. Cp knockout mice were found to have slower disease evolution than wild‐type mice (EAE days 13–17; P = 0.05). Interestingly, Cp knockout mice also exhibited a significant increase in the number of astrocytes with reactive morphology in early EAE compared with wild‐type mice at the same stage of disease. CNS iron levels were not increased with EAE in these mice. Based on these observations, we propose that an increase in Cp expression could contribute to tissue damage in early EAE. In addition, endogenous CP either directly or indirectly inhibits astrocyte reactivity during early disease, which could also worsen early disease evolution. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
