ABSTRACT
Objective:To improve the clinical differential diagnosis ability of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) complicated with gout and septic arthritis (SA).Methods:The clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of one RA patient with hyperuricemia and recurrent swelling and pain in right shoulder were reported and discussed.Results:A patient, with a history of RA for 10 years, hyperuricemia for 8 years, recurrent swelling and pain in right shoulder for 1 year. RA, gout, and SA were diagnosed before, and the response was poor after symptomatic treatment. In recent 1 month, the symptom was aggravated with the formation of fistula on the right shoulder. The laboratory tests for tuberculosis T cell interferon release test (IGRA) and tuberculin (PPD) test were negative, and the CD4 + cell count decreased. The comprehensive analysis of the imaging with right shoulder showed MSU deposition on right shoulder, with bone erosion, bone destruction, bone marrow edema, joint effusion, and multiple sites of connective tissue involvement (synovial bursa, tendon sheath, tendon, and muscle) GeneXpert MTB/RIF (GeneXpert), metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) of puncture fluid and joint fluid culture prompted Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex group. He was finally diagnosed with RA, gout, and osteoarticular tuberculosis (OAT). Symptoms were relieved after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion:RA patients with hyperuricemia have recurrent single arthritis. In addition to considering for gout, the presence of OAT should also be considered. The immune functional status of the patient and drug used may interfere with the interpretation of immune function tests. It is necessary to integrate the clinical characteristics of patients, a variety of imaging examinations, and etiological detection to confirm the diagnosis and avoid misdiagnosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of psychological intervention in the rectal cancer after operation. Methods Thirty-seven patients each in control group and intervention group with rectal cancer after operation from February 2012 to February 2015 in our department were retrospectively analyzed. The complications, quality of life and psycho-logical status were compared between the two groups. Results The intervention group was significantly lower than that of the control group in urinary tract infection (χ2=4.44, P<0.05), intestinal obstruction (χ2=3.85, P<0.05), pulmonary infection(χ2=6.51, P<0.05). The intervention group were significantly higher than that in the control group after 4 weeks of the operation in physical function(t=5.75, P<0.01), role function(t=5.50, P<0.01), emotional function(t=6.08, P<0.01), cognitive function(t=6.60, P<0.01), social function(t=2.92, P<0.01). The intervention group was significantly lower than that of the control group in SAS(t=4.05, P<0.01) and SDS (t=3.11, P<0.01). Conclusion Psychological inter-vention can decrease the rate of postoperative complications and improve the psychological state in the rectal cancer after operation, it can also enhance the quality of life.
