Objective To investigate the application status of titrated oxygen therapy in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) by means of literature retrieving. Methods Database retrieving is taken on eight major domestic medical journals about the treatment for AECOPD patients during the period of January 2013 to December 2015. Results There were 70 articles involving the treatment of AECOPD in the eight major journals during 2013 to 2015. Oxygen therapy was not mentioned in 14 articles, oxygen therapy data were incomplete in 13 papers and relatively complete in 43 papers. None of the articals provided full description of oxygen therapy. The arterial blood gas of the patients was analyzed, and showed excessive or not enough on effect of oxygen treatment. Conclusion The clinicians did not pay enough attention to oxygen treatment for AECOPD patients, so treatment guideline and clinical pathway should be construed to standardize titrated oxygen therapy.
Objective To evaluate the influence of the location of retinal vessel trunk on neuroretinal rim width of inferior and superior sectors of optic disc, and explore its role in the diagnosis of glaucomatous optic nerve lesion. Methods The photographs of ocular fundus from 459 patients with clear location of retinal vessel trunk, including large disc in 131, medium disc in 145, horizontally oval disc in 75, and small disc in 108 were evaluated. Independent-sample t test was used to compare the difference of the superior and inferior rim widths between the higher-vessel group and the lower-vessel group, and to compare the difference of superior and inferior vessel distances between the narrow-superior-rim-width group and the narrow inferior-rim-width group. Results In most of the patients, or the ones with large and small disc, the ratio of superior rim width to summation of superior and inferior rim widths in the higher-vessel group（0.467plusmn;0.051，0.445plusmn;0.040，0.508plusmn;0.056）were less than which in the lowervessel group（0.500plusmn;0.066，0.474plusmn;0.062，0.546plusmn;0.048）, and the differences were significant（P=0.000, 0.045, 0.018）; the ratio of superior vessel distance to summation of superior and inferior vessel distance in the narrow-superior-rim-width group（0.510plusmn;0.051，0.508plusmn;0.055，0.512plusmn;0.036）were less than which in the narrow-inferior-rim-width group（0.528plusmn;0.045，0.533plusmn;0.048，0.534plusmn;0.045）, and the differences were significant（P=0.000, 0.046, 0.022）. Conclusions The position of optic disc vessel trunk influences its superior and inferior rim width. The rim closer to vessel trunk position has narrower width than which comparatively far away from the position. In patients with large, medium, horizontally oval optic disc, glaucoma optic nerve lesion would be considered if the optic disc has the shape of narrower inferior rim, broader superior rim, and vessel location in the superior half of the disc. In the ones with small disc, the optic disc with the shape of narrower superior rim, broader inferior rim, and vessel location in the inferior half of the disc may suggest glaucoma optic nerve lesion.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mifepristone for perimenopause dysfunctional uterine bleeding (PDUB). Methods Such databases as VIP, CNKI, Wanfang and CBM were retrieved for collecting randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on mifepristone for PDUB. The quality of included studies was evaluated and Meta-analysis was performed according to the Cochrane methods. Results Forty RCTs involving 3 850 PDUB patients were included. The control group was divided into two sub-groups according to the features of intervention drugs: the sub-group of diagnostic curettage plus progestational hormone, and the sub-group of diagnostic curettage plus antiestrogenic drugs. The Meta-analysis indicated that compared with the sub-group of diagnostic curettage plus progestational hormone, the diagnostic curettage plus mifepristone group was more effective to increase the total effective rate, such as improving symptoms and signs of PDUB (RR=1.11, 95%CI 1.06 to 1.16, Plt;0.000 01), and to reduce recurrence (RR=0.44, 95%CI 0.36 to 0.52, Plt;0.000 01). But no differences were found between the two groups in the change of endometrial thickness, contents of hemoglobin, and serum level of FSH, LH, E2 and P hormone. Both the intervention and control groups appeared mild adverse reactions, such as rashes, tidal fever, nausea, anorexia, vomiting and breast distending, but with no liver and kidney damages. The long-term safety failed to be evaluated due to short follow-up time. Conclusion Based on this review, diagnostic curettage plus mifepristone shows certain advantage in the treatment of PDUB including the total effective rate and reducing recurrence. But there is no difference in regulating sex hormone level, inhibiting endometrial proliferation and improving anemia compared with the group of diagnostic curettage plus progestational hormone. However, this evidence is not b enough due to the low quality of included trials, possible bias risk, and failure of evaluating its long-term safety.
ObjectiveUsing SYRCLE tool (the SYstematic Review Centre for Laboratory animal Experimentation) to evaluate the risk of bias of animal studies in stroke field published in Chinese journals, identify problems of these studies in design, implementation and measurement, in order to provide references for improving the quality of animal studies in China. MethodsWe searched databases including CBM, VIP, CNKI and WanFang Data from inception to December 31st, 2014. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included animal studies using SYRCLE tool developed by the National Centre for the Replacement, Refinement and Reduction of Animals in Research. ResultsA total of 582 studies were included. The assessment results showed that the number of reported items with "Low Risk" in SYRCLE, which have 22 items, reported in >50% of the 4 items and in <30% the 16 items in articles of animals experiments. More than 99% of the studies fulfilled the 3 items and more than 17% of the articles to meet the 10 items while less than 1% of the documents met the 17 items. The quality of studies increased excepted the period of 2010 to 2014. The methodological quality of animal experiments presented a trend of increasing and no significant differences were found in CSCD indexed or not. ConclusionThe methodological quality of animal experiments of stroke is poor in China in terms of the selection bias, implementation bias, measurement bias, withdraw bias and reporting bias.
Objective To investigate the current status of self-management knowledge, attitude and behavior and influencing factors in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Qianbei area, and to analyze the influencing factors. Methods A total of 329 COPD patients were recruited and investigated with self-compiled questionnaire for self-management knowledge, attitude and behavior of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results The mean score of self-management knowledge, attitude and behavior in COPD patients was 132.6±17.0, in which the scores of each dimension from high to low were as follows: smoking, medication treatment, exercise and family oxygen therapy. The analysis of stepwise regression indicated that the main influencing factors of self-management of COPD patients were age, sex, address, degree of education, course of disease and smoking. Conclusions The self-management level of the disease recognition, attitude and behavior in COPD patients should be improved, in which the knowledge is key factor to promote the health behavior of patients. So the healthy workers should pay close attention to the influence factors and apply the new thinking pattern and methods to improve the self-management ability and the quality of life of patients.
For the increasing number of patients with depression, this paper proposes an artificial intelligence method to effectively identify depression through voice signals, with the aim of improving the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment. Firstly, a pre-training model called wav2vec 2.0 is fine-tuned to encode and contextualize the speech, thereby obtaining high-quality voice features. This model is applied to the publicly available dataset - the distress analysis interview corpus-wizard of OZ (DAIC-WOZ). The results demonstrate a precision rate of 93.96%, a recall rate of 94.87%, and an F1 score of 94.41% for the binary classification task of depression recognition, resulting in an overall classification accuracy of 96.48%. For the four-class classification task evaluating the severity of depression, the precision rates are all above 92.59%, the recall rates are all above 92.89%, the F1 scores are all above 93.12%, and the overall classification accuracy is 94.80%. The research findings indicate that the proposed method effectively enhances classification accuracy in scenarios with limited data, exhibiting strong performance in depression identification and severity evaluation. In the future, this method has the potential to serve as a valuable supportive tool for depression diagnosis.

Methods From January 2007 to January 2010, 376 critically ill patients were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in the control group received conventional oral cavity nursing treatment, and those in the treatment group underwent the selective digestive decontamination. Then, we compared the curative effect parameters of these two kinds of procedures for the two groups of patients. Results For patients in the treatment group, the rate of hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) was 18.4%, the occurring time of HAP was (7.2±3.2) days, the time of retaining artificial gas channel (trachea cannula / incision) was (10.5±3.8) days, the time of mechanical ventilation was (8.4±3.1) days, ICU stay time was (14.7±4.8) days, and the mortality rate was 11.6%. For the control group, the correspondent parameters were respectively 30.1%, (5.6±3.6) days, (12.5±4.6) days, (10.2±4.2) days, (17.2±6.2) days, and 19.4%. The differences of these parameters between the two groups were significant (Plt;0.05). Conclusion For patients in the ICU, the selective digestive decontamination can effectively control the occurrence of HAP, improve patient conditions, reduce hospitalization time, and decrease mortality rate.
