With the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, the development of cardiac rehabilitation is an inevitable trend. Cardiac rehabilitation is a comprehensive and long-term plan including medical assessment, exercise prescription, correction of cardiovascular risk factors, education, counseling, and behavioral intervention. Evidence-based medical evidence confirms that cardiac rehabilitation plays an important role in the three level prevention of cardiovascular disease. In this paper, we searched the literature in recent 10 years to explain the current situation and future research direction of cardiac rehabilitation, and explore the best mode of cardiac rehabilitation.
Objective To investigate the characteristics of congenital retinoschisis of optical coherence tomography(OCT) and its clinical application. Methods Eight cases(15 eyes) which were diagnosed as or suspected to retinoschisis in clinic were examined by OCT,direct ophthalmoscopy and color fundus photograph.Three cases(6 eyes) were examined by electroretinogram(ERG) and fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA). Results The typical characteristic OCT images of congenital retinoschisis were cystic maculopathy with tilted and vertical connective filaments,typical split in innner retinal layers in posterior retina and thickening of neurosensory retina with the split of outer retinal layers in membranous remnants. Conclusions OCT can display the characteristics of congenital retinoschisis．It is potentially useful as a new technique for the diagnosis of congenital retinoschisis.

目的 探讨心脏机械瓣膜置换术后患者出院指导的综合方法，评价其效果。 方法 将2010年9月－2011年1月242例心脏机械瓣膜置换术患者按入院先后顺序随机分成试验组和对照组。试验组患者采用综合出院指导方案，对照组采用常规宣教方法，在6个月后对两组患者进行调查，评价综合指导方案的效果，并进行统计学分析。 结果 试验组患者均未出现不良并发症，对照组有1例出院后未遵医嘱服药及定期复查，死于血管栓塞；有2例出现血管栓塞，2例牙龈出血，经及时治疗后好转。 结论 对心脏机械瓣膜置换术患者出院时，发放健康教育资料及定期随访指导的综合出院指导方案，可以降低术后并发症，提高患者认知水平和满意度，帮助患者提高依从性，提高生存质量。
ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical features and visual outcome of posterior scleritis presented with symptoms involving affected optic nerve.MethodsRetrospective case series study. Twelve eyes of 12 female patients with posterior scleritis were included in this study. The average age was 35.2±14.31 years old. The patients got diagnosed with an average of 24.75±22.91 days. Ocular pain was complained in all patients, and blurred vision in 11 patients. The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), slit lamp microscope examination, B-scan ultrasound, optical coherence tomography (OCT), fundus photography, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and ocular wall thickness measurement were performed in all patients. Nine eyes received visual field examination. All patients received systemic corticosteroid and steroidal eye drops for 3 months. Clinical features and outcome were retrospectively studied.ResultsBefore treatment, the BCVA was from ＜0.1 to ＞0.8. There were 3 eyes with scleral hyperemia, 3 eyes with anterior chamber flares, 12 eyes with papilledema and different degrees of retinal vein dilatation, 3 eyes with star-shaped macular exudates and 2 eyes with macular retinal pigment epithelium detachment. B-scan ultrasound demonstrated that the ocular walls were thickening in all eyes with typical T-sign, and the average thickness was 2.76±0.68 mm. OCT demonstrated optic disc swelling, and the macular retinal detachment in 2 eyes. In the FFA examination, the fluorescein leakage of the disc was enhanced with time. In the Humphrey test, the value of mean deviation (MD) was 12.56±5.73 dB and pattern standard deviation (PSD) was 8.15±4.23 dB in 9 eyes before the treatment. After treatment for 3 months, the symptoms were attenuated and the visual acuity was obviously improved with BCVA>0.1 in all eyes. Scleral hyperemia and anterior chamber flares were only found in 1 eye. The optic disc edema gradually faded away. The ocular wall thickness in the poster part of the eyeball decreased, and the T-sign disappeared in all eyes, the average thickness was 1.53±0.41 mm. Compared with parameters before the treatment, the difference was statistically significant (t=0.003 5, P＜0.05). OCT demonstrated the recovery of the macular retinal detachment. There was no abnormal leakage evidenced in FFA in the optic disc and macular. After treatment, the value of MD and PSD was 5.19±4.82 dB and (4.33±3.76) dB, respectively. The difference of MD value between before and after the treatment was significant (t=0.026, P＜0.05).ConclusionsPosterior scleritis with an initial symptom of optic nerve was tend to affect middle-aged patients, with clinical manifestations of anterior segment signs in some patients and optic disc swelling with retinal vein dilatation in all patients. B ultrasound examination showed typical T sign. Systemic corticosteroid treatment always obtained remission of the ocular inflammatory activity, and could achieve favorable visual outcome.
