Pregnancy anxiety scale:development,reliability and validity / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective To develop anxiety scale suitable for Chinese pregnant women and evaluate its reliability and validity. Methods Based on existing research results and clinical experience,this study compiled pregnancy anxiety scale(PAS). A sample of 509 pregnant women were selected for investigation and 65 of them were randomly retested for test-retest reliability with 2 week interval. Item analysis was con-ducted to screen valid items. Then the construct validity of the scale was tested by exploratory factor analysis ( EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis(CFA). Finally the reliability and criterion validity of the scale were evaluated using Cronbach's α coefficient,retest reliability coefficient and Pearson correlation coefficient. Re-sults The PAS was composed of 27 items in four factors,including worry about delivery,worry about them-selves,worry about fetal health and general anxiety. The four factors were extracted by EFA which could ex-plain 62. 48% of the total variance. Besides,the result of CFA demonstrated that the model fitted the data with well construct validity (χ2/df=1. 89,RMR=0. 04,RMSEA=0. 06,IFI=0. 92,TLI=0. 91,CFI=0. 92, PGFI=0. 70,PNFI=0. 74,PCFI=0. 81). The score of the pregnancy-related anxiety scale and its factors scores were positively correlated with the scores of pregnancy-related anxiety questionnaire(PAQ) and child-birth attitudes questionnaire(CAQ). The correlation coefficients were 0. 60-0. 80 and 0. 50-0. 78 respectively (all P<0. 01). The Cronbach's α coefficient was 0. 93 for the total scale and that of the four factors ranged from 0. 82 to 0. 90. The test-retest reliability was 0. 68 for the total scale and ranged from 0. 54 to 0. 75 for the four factors. Conclusion The PAS has a good reliability and validity,and it can be used as a valid tool to measure the anxiety level of pregnant women.

Clinical significance of the early minimally invasive retroperitoneal approach of drainage in severe acute pan-creatitis / 中国基层医药

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical value of the road drainage after early mini-mally invasive treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (severe acute pancreatitis,SAP).Methods A retrospective analysis were used to investigate the clinical data of 37 patients with SAP in March 2011 to March 2011 after conven-tional treatment and early minimally invasive approach drainage treatment.Drainage of early after minimally invasive approach group were treated by laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach surgery in the early onset,and were removed of necrotic tissue and catheter drainage of the retroperitoneal clearance.Then postoperative double pipe for irrigation and the negative pressure drainage were applied.Two groups of postoperative complications,mortality,medical expenses, length of hospital stay,etc.were compared.Results Early minimally invasive drainage of into the road after acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ)was superior to the conventional treatment group (P =0.00).The overall incidence of complications and mortality of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (multiple out-raged dysfunction syndrome,MODS),was superior to the conventional treatment group,and the differences were statis-tically significant (P =0.023,P =0.033,P =0.046).Early into the road drainage of hospitalization expenses after minimally invasive were reduced ((19.74 ±2.22)than (36.15 ±1.92)ten thousand yuan,t =23.989,P =0.000),hospitalization time were shorter (4.76 ±0.64)weeks than (6.03 ±0.73)weeks,t =5.635,P =0.000). Conclusion Early minimally invasive retroperitoneal approach of drainage treatment of SAP can reduce the incidence of complications and mortality,reduce hospitalization expenses,shorten hospitalization time,and has the clinical feasi-bility and application value.

The effects of early stage minimally invasive retroperitoneal approach of drainage for severe acute pancre-atitis / 中华内分泌外科杂志

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of early stage minimally invasive laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach of catheter drainage on early inflammatory response of severe acute pancreatitis ( SAP ) . Methods 37 SAP patients with peritoneal effusion were divided into the observation group (19 cases with early laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach of catheter drainage )and normal treatment group(18 cases with conventional drainage)using a random number table.All patients were given conventional therapy , such as fasting, gastroin-testinal decompression , anti-infection, fluid resuitation and using gastric acid and trypsin inhibitors .In addition to conventional therapy , the observation group received the early laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach of catheter drainage.The inflammatory indexes responding to acute inflammation such as TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8, IL-10 and C-re-active protein(CRP)were detected before and after treatment .Meanwhile, the date of resume diet, APACHEⅡscores and duration of systemic inflammatory response ( SIRS) , incidence of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome ( MODS) and the mortality were observed .Results The acute inflammatory response occurred in both groups . The plasma levels of TNF-a,IL-6,IL-8,IL-10 and CRP in the two groups decreased obviously after 3-day treat-ment.However, the plasma levels of inflammatory mediators in the normal treatment group increased while those early laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach of catheter drainage group kept decreasing after 7-day treatment .There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.01).Time for resuming to diets and duration of SIRS in the observation group were less than those in the normal treatment group ( P<0.01 ) , APACHEⅡscore were significantly less than those in normal treatment group also (P<0.01).The rates of MODS, overall postoperative complication rate and mortality were significantly lower in the observation group (P<0.05).Conclusions Early laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach of catheter drainage can effectively improve the prognosis in patients with SAP and decrease the production of inflammatory mediators .Early laparoscopic retroperitoneal approach of cathe-ter drainage is simple , feasible and micro-invasive with encouraging outcomes , therefore it is an effective and safe treatment option for patients with SAP .

Epidemiological analysis on the open- patient cases of rabies admitted to CDC clinic of Fujian province in 2007 / 中国人兽共患病学报

To analyze the epidemiological factors of the open patient cases admitted to the clinic of Fujian CDC in 2007 for the purpose of prevention of rabies. The descriptive research methods in this study was used, including the gender, age, time admitted to out-patient department(OPD), level of exposure, treatment for the bitten wound, timeliness of inoculating rabies vaccine and therapy with human rabies immunoglobulins ,and the species of attacking animal . Data analysis showed that, in 2007, the OPD for dog injury of Fujian CDC had accepted 4128 cases bitten by dogs, among which children under 10 years old and adults of 21-41 years old constituted majority of cases who were bitten and injured by animals. The exposed cases which were sent to hospitals or OPD within 5 hours only 14.22%;while the percentage of cases received human rabies immunoglobulins was only 14.27%. However, the percentage of cases which were bitten and hurt by pet dogs was 64.27%. Those results indicate the need of strengthen people's knowledge and public education on rabies control and prevention, and the dog feeding management, includes cleaning of wound immediately after bitten by animals, especially the immediate use of rabies immunoglubulins and inoculation with rabies vaccine.
