RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of high-intensity interval training and moderate continuous aerobic training on patients classified as low risk for exercise rehabilitation after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:A total of 43 patients considered low-risk after a PCI were randomly divided into a high-intensity interval training group (HIIT group, 22 cases) and a moderate continuous aerobic training group (MCT group, 21 cases). The HIIT group received high-intensity, but aerobic interval training involving 8 rounds of 3 minutes of high-intensity exercise with 2-minute intervals at 80% of peak power over 40 minutes, 3 times a week. The MCT group trained continuously at 60% of peak power for the same duration. After 12 weeks both groups were given an ultrasound examination and a cardiopulmonary exercise test to assess their cardiac functioning and exercise endurance. The subjects′ life quality was evaluated and compared using some items from the SF-36 scale.Results:Before the training, no significant differences were observed in the average left ventricular ejection fraction, stroke volume, peak power, peak oxygen uptake, anaerobic threshold, physiological functioning, physical pain, general health or social functioning between the two groups. After the training significant improvement in all these indicators was observed in both groups, but compared with MCT group, the average left ventricular ejection fraction, stroke volume, peak power and peak oxygen uptake of the HIIT group were significantly better.Conclusions:High-intensity, aerobic interval training is superior to moderate but continuous aerobic training for improving the cardiac functioning and exercise endurance of patients suitable for exercise rehabilitation after a PCI. But there is no significant difference in their effect on the short-term quality of life.

RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of spinal-epidural and epidural anesthesia for pain relief in labor. Methods Totally 6671 cases selected from pregnant women delivered from Aug. 2001 to Oct. 2004 in our hospital were reviewed retrospectively. All cases were divided into three groups,1482 cases in spinal-epidural group (combined epidural) and 1111 in epidural group (epidural) who received pain relief during labor; 4078 as control group without any pain relief during labor. Delivery method and maternal, fetal complications among three groups were compared. Results (1) Delivery methods were significantly different (P0.05) in postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal asphyxia between spinal epidural 4.3%(63/1482) 1.0%(15/1482), epidural 4.1%(45/1111),0.8%(9/1111), and control 3.9%(159/4078), 1.4%(56/4078). Conclusions Anesthetic pain relief in labor may reduce the CS rate, but increase the rate of forceps delivery. Pain relief is associated with arrested and prolonged active phase, prolonged second stage. However, pain relief in labor doesnot enhance the rate of postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal asphyxia.

RESUMO
Objective To analyze the descending trend of maternal mortality ratio (MMR) and its related influencing factors in order to improve the descending speed of MMR. Methods The influencial factor analysis and u test were made on data collected from 232 rural counties of eight provinces in China. Results MMR had shown remarkable reduction from 1995 to 2000, a drop by 51.33%. However, there was still a gap if compared with the ratio of the whole country. Major causes influencing the descending speed of MMR include the high speed of economic development, more expenditure of health, quality of maternal service, such as the ratio of hospital delivery, cleaning delivery, prenatal and postnatal health care. Conclusion In order to accelerate the descending speed of MMR, attempts to increase the improvement speed of maternal health care, quality of maternal service and more expenditure of health should be made.
