目的 探讨阿戈美拉汀联合乙哌立松治疗青年慢性紧张性头痛(Chronictention-typeheadache,CTTH)的疗效及安全性.方法 80例青年慢性紧张性头痛患者依据是否倒班随机分为对照组和治疗组,对照组口服乙哌立松治疗,治疗组在对照组基础上联合阿戈美拉汀治疗,评估2组患者治疗前匹兹堡睡眠量表评分(PSQI)评估治疗6周后两组的头痛疗效以及不良反应.结果 倒班人员的入组前PSQI的总评分、睡眠质量、入睡时间、催眠药物及睡眠障碍因子分高于非倒班人员;治疗组的疗效优于对照组,有统计学意义(P＜0.05);治疗组内,倒班患者疗效优于非倒班患者(P＜0.05).两组不良反应无明显差异.结论 阿戈美拉汀联合乙哌立松治疗慢性紧张性头痛的的疗效确切,安全性高.     

Unexpected Return for Follow-up During the First Year of Multidisciplinary Care May Be Predictive of Rapid Deterioration of Renal Function

Multidisciplinary predialysis education and team care (MDC) may slow the decline in renal function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, associations between unexpected return during MDC and progression of renal dysfunction have not been characterized in patients with CKD. Our study aimed to determine the association between exacerbation of renal dysfunction and the frequency of unexpected return during follow-up.A total of 437 patients with CKD receiving multidisciplinary care between January 2009 and June 2013 at the Shin-Kong Wu Ho-Su Memorial Hospital were included in this retrospective observational cohort study, and multiple imputations were performed for missing data. The predictor was the frequency of unexpected return for follow-up during the first year after entering MDC. Main outcome was monthly declines in estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR). Moreover, the demographic data, comorbidities, history of medication, and routine laboratory data for patients with CKD were collected.Among all patients, 59.7% were male, the mean age at initiation of MDC was 69.4 ± 13.2 years, and the duration of follow-up was 21.4 ± 3.3 months. The subjects were divided into 2 groups according to frequencies of follow-up (≤4 and > 4 visits) during the 1st year of MDC. The patients with CKD were regularly followed up every 3 months as a part of MDC in our hospital, and patients who returned for more than 4 follow-up visits were included in the unexpected return group. In crude regression analyses, unexpected return was significantly associated with higher monthly declines of eGFR (β = 0.092, 95% confidence interval, 0.014–0.170). This association remained after adjustments for multiple variables, and subgroup analyses of unexpected return showed that male gender, older age, CKD stage 1 to 3, hypertension, history of coronary artery disease, and use of renin–angiotensin system blockade were significantly associated with declines in renal function.In conclusion, unexpected return for follow-up during the 1st year of MDC was significantly associated with the deterioration of renal function.     

自血穴位注射疗法联合马来酸茚达特罗治疗老年稳定期慢性阻塞性肺疾病的临床分析

目的探讨自血穴位注射疗法联合马来酸茚达特罗治疗老年稳定期慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)的临床疗效及其对患者炎性因子、免疫功能及肺功能的影响。 方法将2015年5月至2016年5月我院收治的86例老年缓解期COPD患者分为观察组与对照组。对照组给予马来酸茚达特罗治疗，观察组在对照组治疗基础上另给予自血穴位注射疗法。治疗12周后，评价2组临床疗效。治疗前及治疗12周后，分别检测2组患者肺功能指标(FEV₁、FVC与PEF)，炎性因子(IL-8、α1-AT、IL-6及TNF-α)，免疫功能指标(IgG、IgA、CD3^＋及CD4^＋)水平。治疗期间，对2组患者的不良反应进行密切观察。 结果治疗后二组患者各项检测指标均优于治疗前。治疗12周后，观察组总有效率为90.7%，明显高于对照组的72.1%(P<0.05)。治疗12周后，观察组FEV₁、FVC与PEF等肺功能指标，IgG、IgA、CD3^＋及CD4^＋等免疫功能指标水平均明显高于对照组(P<0.05)，而IL-8、α1-AT、IL-6及TNF-α含量分别为(23.23±3.87)ng/L、(3.43±0.41)g/L、(52.25±5.38)ng/L及(43.12±3.98)ng/L，改善程度均明显优于对照组(P<0.05)。治疗期间，2组患者均未出现严重不良反应。 结论自血穴位注射疗法联合马来酸茚达特罗治疗老年稳定期COPD疗效确切，可有效改善患者炎症水平，值得进行深入研究。     

Congenital Heart Disease in Adolescents With Gluteal Muscle Contracture

Gluteal muscle contracture (GMC), presented with hip abduction and external rotation when crouching, is common in several ethnicities, particularly in Chinese. It remains unclear that the reasons why these children are weak and have no choice to accept repeated intramuscular injection. Here, we found some unique cases which may be useful to explain this question.We describe a series of special GMC patients, who are accompanied with congenital heart disease (CHD). These cases were first observed in preoperative examinations of a patient with atrial septal defect (ASD), which was proved by chest X-ray and cardiac ultrasound. From then on, we gradually identified additional 3 GMC patients with CHD. The original patient with ASD was sent to cardiosurgery department to repair atrial septal first and received arthroscopic surgery later. While the other 3 were cured postoperative of ventricular septal defect (VSD), tetralogy of fallot (TOF), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), respectively, and had surgery directly.The study gives us 3 proposals: (1) as to CHD children, it is essential to decrease the use of intramuscular injection, (2) paying more attention to cardiac examination especially cardiac ultrasound in perioperative period, and (3) taking 3D-CT to reconstruct gluteal muscles for observing contracture bands clearly in preoperation. However, more larger series of patients are called for to confirm these findings.
