ObjectivesTo explore the poor population’s cognition and satisfaction on medical assistance policies in Sichuan province, so as to provide evidence for improving health poverty alleviation policies.Methods A telephone survey was conducted between October and December 2017 among 1 280 poor individuals in Sichuan Province, with multi-stage stratified random sampling. The contents of the survey included general demographics of the poor population, and knowledge and satisfaction of health poverty alleviation policies.ResultsThe awareness rate of medical assistance policy was 91.80%, and the satisfaction rate was 91.88%. Poor individuals from non-poor counties, who had been out of poverty, and who reported that they had not signed up for family doctors, had low awareness of poverty alleviation policies. Poor individuals from non-poor counties, who usually went to the municipal hospital, who reported that they have not signed up for family doctors, and who do not know about health policies for poverty alleviation had a lower satisfaction rate.ConclusionsThe overall awareness rate and satisfaction rate of medical assistance policies in Sichuan province are relatively high, however, there are still some shortage. In the future, more attention should be paid to strengthen the promotion of health poverty alleviation policies for non-poor areas and those who had been lifted out of poverty, speeding up the contract service of family doctors and exploring ways to further alleviate the burden of medical expense of patients with serious diseases.
Objective To compare canine decel luarized venous valve stent combining endothel ial progenitor cells (EPC) with native venous valve in terms of venous valve closure mechanism in normal physiological conditions. Methods Thirty-six male hybrid dogs weighing 15-18 kg were used. The left femoral vein with valve from 12 dogs was harvested to prepare decelluarized valved venous stent combined with EPC. The rest 24 dogs were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group (n=12 per group). In the experimental group, EPC obtained from the bone marrowthrough in vitro ampl ification were cultured, the cells at passage 3 (5 × 106 cells/mL) were seeded on the stent, and the general and HE staining observations were performed before and after the seeding of the cells. In the experimental group, allogenic decelluarized valved venous stent combined with EPC was transplanted to the left femoral vein region, while in the control group, the autogenous vein venous valve was implanted in situ. Color Doppler Ultrasound exam was performed 4 weeks after transplantation to compare the direction and velocity of blood flow in the distal and proximal end of the valve, and the changes of vein diameter in the valve sinus before and after the closure of venous valve when the dogs changed from supine position to reverse trendelenburg position. Results General and HE staining observations before and after cell seeding: the decelluarized valved venous stent maintained its fiber and collagen structure, and the EPC were planted on the decelluarized stent successfully through bioreactor. During the period from the reverse trendelenburg position to the starting point for the closure of the valve, the reverse flow of blood occurred in the experimental group with the velocity of (1.4 ± 0.3) cm/s; while in the control group, there was no reverse flow of blood, but the peak flow rate was decreased from (21.3 ± 2.1) cm/s to (18.2 ± 3.3) cm/s. In the control group, the active period of valve, the starting point for the closure of the valve, and the time between the beginning of closure and the complete closure was (918 ± 46), (712 ± 48), and (154 ± 29) ms, respectively; while in the experimental group, it was (989 ± 53), (785 ± 43), and (223 ± 29) ms, respectively. There was significant difference between two groups (P lt; 0.05).After the complete closure of valve, no reverse flow of blood occurred in two groups. The vein diameter in the valve sinus of the experimental and the control group after the valve closure was increased by 116.8% ± 2.0% and 118.5% ± 2.2%, respectively, when compared with the value before valve closure (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Canine decelluarized venous valve stent combined with EPC is remarkably different from natural venous valve in terms of the valve closure mechanism in physiological condition. The former rel ies on the reverse flow of blood and the latter is related to the decreased velocity of blood flow and the increased pressure of vein in the venous sinus segment.
【摘要】 目的 通过对老年人烧伤的原因进行调查与分析，为预防老年人烧伤提供有效的依据。 方法 调查分析2000年1月-2009年6月收治的270例60岁以上老年烧伤住院患者的致伤因子、好发年龄、烧伤月份、烧伤程度、烧伤地点、家庭及居住情况。 结果 270例老年烧伤中，致伤因子以火焰烧伤最多占147例（54.44%），与其他的致伤因子比较有统计学意义（Plt;0.05）；好发年龄以60～69岁年龄段发生率最高占153例（56.67%），与其他年龄段比较有统计学意义（Plt;0.05）；老年烧伤一年四季均可发生，但以寒冷的冬季12月-次年2月居多，占158例（58.52%），与其他季节比较有统计学意义（Plt;0.05）；烧伤程度以轻度为主共142例（52.59%）；烧伤地点大多发生在家中共213例（78.89%），且为独居占191例（70.74%）；老年烧伤家庭以农村家庭居多共208例（77.04%）。 结论 随着老年人群逐步增加，烧伤发生率也增高，在日常生活中应采取有效防范措施，防止和减少老年烧伤的发生。【Abstract】Objective To provide the effective evidence for preventing burn injury of aged people by investigating and analyzing the reasons of burn injury. Methods The injury factors, age, month, degree, place, family and habitation of 270 aged people over 60 years old were analyzed between January, 2000 to June, 2009 in this department. Results In 270 aged patients, there were 147 patients whose injury factors were flame (54.44%) , and there was statistical difference compared with other injury factors (Plt;0.05) . The injury age of the highest incidence rate was 60 to 69 (153 patients, 56.67%) , and there was statistical difference compared with other injury age (Plt;0.05) .The aged burn injury may happen in all seasons, but the highest incidence rate appeared in winter (from December to next February) and there was statistical difference compared with other seasons (Plt;0.05) (158, 58.52%). There were 142 minor injury degree patients mainly (52.59%). The most injury places were at home (213 patients, 78.89%) and 191 patients (70.74%) were living alone.Two hundred and eight patients (77.04%) came from countryside. Conclusion With the aged people increasing, the incidence rate of burn injury is also raised.So effective methods should be adopted to prevent and decrease the incidence of age burn injury.
Objective To investigate the influence of different pressures and duration of CO2 pneumoperitoneum on the adhesive and invasive ability of gastric cancer cells based on the expressions of adhesive and invasive molecules. Methods With an artificial CO2 pneumoperitoneum model in vitro, human gastric cancer cell lines including MKN-45, SGC-7901, and MKN-28 were exposed to CO2 in different environments: 0 mm Hg （1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa）, 9 mm Hg （2 h, 4 h）, and 15 mm Hg （2 h, 4 h）. The expressions of mRNA of E-cadherin, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) in the different environments were measured by RT-PCR. The expressions of protein of E-cadherin and ICAM-1 in the environments of 0 mm Hg and 15 mm Hg （4 h） were measured by FCM. Results With the increase of duration or pressure, RT-PCR showed that there was a downward trend in the expression of E-cadherin mRNA as well as there were upward trends in the expressions of ICAM-1, MMP-2, and VEGF-A mRNA; FCM showed that there was a downward trend in the expression of E-cadherin protein while the expression of ICAM-1 protein showed the opposite change. But there were no obvious differences under different environment (P＞0.05). Conclusions Under low pressure (≤15 mm Hg) and short time (≤4 h) of CO2 pneumoperitoneum, the adhesive and invasive ability of gastric cancer cells could not be affected, which means that under this environment, CO2 pneumoperitoneum will not increase the possibility of neoplasm metastasis.
