  • Incidence and Risk Factors of Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

    Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with myocardial infarction. Methods A total of 634 patients with myocardial infarction from Beijing Anzhen Hospital were asked to take liver and gallbladder ultrasonography during hospitalization, and then divided into the NAFLD and non-NAFLD groups. The incidence and risk factors of the two groups were then analyzed. Results The incidence of NAFLD was 52.2% (331/634). Both body mass index (BMI) and serum alanine aminotransferase of the NAFLD group were higher than those of non-NAFLD group, with significant difference (Plt;0.05). The incidence of NAFLD was positively increased following the severity of coronary diseases (χ2=7.275, P=0.03). The result of multivariable logistic regression analysis showed BMI, multi-vessel lesions of coronary disease, and left main coronary artery lesion were the independent risk factors of NAFLD. Conclusion The myocardial infarction patients who are particularly complicated by overweight, multi-vessel lesions and left main coronary artery lesion have a higher incidence of NAFLD.

  • Evident-Based Nursing for a Patient with Grade II Red and Swelling Type Phlebitis

    Objective To formulate a rational adjuvant therapeutic evidence-based nursing plan for a patient with grade II red and swelling type phlebitis. Methods According to the condition of the patient and using the PICO principle, we put forward clinical problems. Then we comprehensively searched the National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), ACP Journal Club, The Cochrane Library, DARE, PubMed, MEDLINE, CNKI and Google Scholar from 2000 to 2012. Relevant clinical guidelines, evidence summaries, systematic reviews/ meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and high quality reviews on adjuvant therapy of grade II red and swelling type phlebitis were collected and their authenticity, importance and applicability were evaluated. Results One systematic review, four meta-analyses, five RCTs, and one review were totally included. According to current evidence as well as the patient’s clinical conditions and preference, a comprehensive and effective adjuvant therapeutic and nursing programme was given to the patient. For grade II red and swelling type phlebitis with blisters and severe pain, paretic infusion should be immediately stopped on the lesion-side limb, and venous indwelling needle should be extracted. Then, mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream should be applied on the skin impaired by vein inflammation, and the local area should be gently massaged for 3 min, twice daily (once in the morning and evening, respectively). After four-day treatment and nursing care, the patient with phlebitis had already recovered. Conclusion Evidence-based medicine approaches could help us develop comprehensive therapeutic plans for patients which promote recovery of patients with phlebitis, alleviate pain, improve health, and increasepatients’ quality of life.

  • Clinical Evidence for Magnesium Sulfate Treatment of Severe Asthma

    Objective To assess the systematic reviews of magnesium sulfate used to treat severe asthma. Methods An electronic search was performed in The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2008), ACP Journal Club (1991 to June 2008), MEDLINE (1990 to June 2008), Chinese Journal Full-text Database (1979 to June 2008), Chinese Scientific and Technological Periodical Databases (VIP) (1980 to June 2008), and Chinese Bio-medicine Database (CBM) (1980 to June 2008) to collect systematic reviews of magnesium sulfate treatment for severe asthma. The retrieved systematic reviews were reassessed, and then we adopted the evidence for clinical practice. Results Nine systematic reviews were included, and all of them included 14.1 ± 2.9 items of QUOROM (the quality of reporting of Meta-analyses) on average. In general, the included systematic reviews had comparatively high quality. Evidence illustrated that intravenous infusion of magnesium sulfate could improve pulmonary function and reduce hospital admission without any serious side effects. However, no evidence could verify that patients with asthma can benefit from aerosolized and oral magnesium sulfate. In a specific case with severe asthma, we used magnesium sulfate via intravenous infusion which helped the control of symptoms with no adverse reactions. Conclusion  Magnesium sulfate via intravenous infusion can improve pulmonary function and reduce hospital admission rates. Due to its effectiveness, safety, and low cost, it deserves widespread application in patients with severe asthma.

  • Efficacy of Fish Oil Containing Lipid Emulsion in Sepsis: A Meta-Analysis

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of fish oil containing lipid emulsion (FO) in sepsis. MethodsRandomized controlled trials about fish oil containing lipid emulsion in sepsis,which were published from 1980,were searched from the following electronic databases:PubMed,Embase,Foreign Medical Journal Service,Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wanfang Database,and VIP Database. The articles screening,quality assessment and data extraction were conducted by two reviewers independently. The methodological quality of trials was assessed by Jadad's scale. All data was analyzed by Review Manager 5.2 software. ResultsFifteen studies involving 794 participants met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis results were as follows:compared with the control group,①FO could shorten the length of ICU stay[WMD=-5.59,95%CI(-7.65,-3.53)] and the length of hospital stay[WMD=-10.48,95%CI(-14.67,-6.29)],and also decrease the 28-day mortality[RR=0.69,95%CI(0.52,0.93)]. ②FO could reduce the concentration of TNF-α[WMD=31.78,95%CI(5.63,57.92)] and improve oxygenation index[WMD=41.95,95%CI(30.80,53.11)] in septic patients. ③There was no statistical significance in the decrease of C-reactive protein (CRP) between two groups(P>0.05). ConclusionThe administration of FO in septic patients can significantly shorten the length of ICU stay and hospital stay,decrease the 28-day mortality,reduce the concentration of TNF-α and improve oxygenation index. However,it shows no significant difference in the decrease of CRP compared with the administration of traditional lipid emulsion. All of the above results show that the septic patients can benefit from the administration of fish oil containing lipid emulsion.

  • Application of Abdominal Wall Closure Measure Without Suturing Subcutaneous Fat Layer in Abdominal Surgery

    Objective To compare the efficacy of incision healing by abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer and the traditional abdominal wall closure measure. Methods Four hundreds patients underwent operation of abdominal median incision and abdominal paramedian incision from Sep. 2010 to Sep. 2012 in our department were randomly assigned to observation group (n=199) and control group (n=201). The patients in obser- vation group underwent abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer, and those of control group were subjected to abdominal wall closure by traditional layer suture technique. Comparison of efficacy of incision healing in the 2 groups was performed. Results The incidences of fat liquefication 〔1 (0.5%) vs.18 (9.0%)〕, incision swelling 〔3 (1.5%) vs.16 (8.0%)〕, incision induration 〔1 (0.5%) vs.15 (7.5%)〕, and dehiscence of wound 〔0 (0) vs.9 (4.5%)〕 in observation group were significantly lower than those of control group (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in incidence of subcutaneous hematoma 〔2 (1.0%) vs.0 (0), P>0.05〕. The rate of primary healing in obser-vation group was significantly higher than those of control group 〔199 (100%) vs.186 (92.5%), P<0.01〕. Duration of abdominal closure 〔(13.0±1.6) min vs.(18.0±2.2) min〕 and postoperative hospital stay 〔(7.7±1.3) days vs.(9.6±1.9) days〕 were all shorter than those of control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer is obviously more effective to the traditional layer suture technique, which is a suture way worthy to spread.

  • Effect of ω-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid on Inflammatory Response and Nutritional State of Patients with Gastrointestinal Malignancies after Operation

    Objective To research the effect of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) on inflammatory response and nutritional condition after operation for patients with gastrointestinal malignancies. Methods Forty patients with gastrointestinal malignancies were included in this study from February 1st, 2009 to June 1st, 2009. Forty cases were randomly allocated to experimental group (20 cases) and control group (20 cases). Parenteral nutrition was conducted in continuous 7 days after operation. Comparing with control group, a dose of 10 g of ω-3 PUFA was given to experimental group every day in 7 days after operation in addition. Blood samples were gained before operation, the 2nd and 8th day after operation respectively to measure relative indexes about inflammatory response (WBC, neutrophilic granulocyte and C-reaction protein) and nutrition (total protein, albumin, prealbumin, siderophilin and lymphocyte). Reduction of body mass was also recorded. Results The baseline between experimental group and control group was comparable (Pgt;0.05). The levels of indexes about inflammatory response (WBC, neutrophilic granulocytem and C-reaction protein) and nutrition (total protein, albumin, prealbumin, siderophilin and lymphocyte) between experimental and control group did not reach statistically significant difference in the 2nd day after operation (Pgt;0.05). The levels of neutrophilic granulocyte and C-reaction protein in experimental group were lower than those of control group, and the level of lymphocyte in experimental group was higher than that of control group in the 8th day after operation, and all of them reached statistical significance (Plt;0.05). There was no statistical different in reduction of body mass between experimentalgroupandcontrolgroup.Conclusion ω-3 PUFA can depress the excessively inflammatory reaction and improve the nutritional condition of patients with gastrointestinal malignancies after operation.

  • Establishment and Assessment of Rat Model of Postoperative Fatigue Syndrome

    【Abstract】Objective To establish and assess the rat model of postoperative fatigue syndrome (POFS). Methods The rat model of POFS was developed by the partial resection of the liver. The behavioral changes prior and post to operation, the disorder of nutritive intake after operation, stress reaction (pathological changes of mucous membrane in small intestine) and the hepatic albumin gene expression were observed. Results Low body temperature, lower sensitivity and reactivity were found. The serum levels of the iron, total protein, albumin, globulin and so on as the indexes of nutrition obviously dropped. The injury of the mucous membrane resulted from the stress reaction after the resection of the liver. The gene expression of the albumin decreased in the model group.Conclusion The experimental rat model of POFS by partial resection of the liver can be used for the investigation of POFS.
