One thousand four hundred and twenty four patients with breast cancer were treated in our hospital from 1980 to 1993. The authors analysed the clinical date of this patients. The results showed that 1193 patients (84.4%) had menopause after 45 years old, 840 patients (59.4%) had menorrhea more than 30 years, 980 patients (80.5 %) had their first pregnancy after 25 years old, and 912 cases (74.9 %) had no history of breast feed. Breast cancer is related to genetic factors, other breast disease, mental factors and trace elements in human hair. The study of breast cancer and its relative factors can be expected to open a new road for the treatment and prevention of this disease.
目的 探讨影响岩斜区脑膜瘤（PCM）预后的相关因素。 方法 回顾分析解放军452医院2005年9月－2009年6月及四川大学华西医院1999年9月－2009年2月110例患者的临床资料及随访结果，通过单因素生存分析及Cox比例风险模型分析探讨影响PCM预后的相关因素。 结果 单因素生存分析发现8种相关因素影响PCM患者的预后，但Cox多因素分析仅发现脑干T2像高信号（OR=5.54，P=0.012）、肿瘤侵入脑干（OR=5.10，P=0.034）、病理高级别（OR=4.03，P=0.011）这3种因素有统计学意义。 结论 脑干T2像高信号、肿瘤侵入脑干、病理高级别可影响岩斜区脑膜瘤患者的预后。
Objective To provide references to control the cost of stroke inpatients by analysing pertinent factors of stroke inpatients. Methods According to the models of Anderson and Newnan, univariable analysis and multivariable statistical analysis were applied to a number of factors including predisposing factors, enabling factors, and needs factors in 1 969 stroke inpatients of two third level first-class hospitals in Chongqing. Results Among the 1 969 stroke inpatients, 64% had a history of hypertension, and 50% exhibited hypertension during their stay in hospital. Expenditure on medication consumed the highest costs (51%). Length of stay was the most important factor affecting inpatient expense, additional factors were number of surgical operation, nurse type, Rankin score, number of complications etc. Conclusions Complex measures focusing on hypertension to prevent and control of stroke are recommended. Reducing unnecessary stay in hospital and appropriate prescribing are important methods to reduce cost of stroke inpatients.
Objective To explore the relative prognostic factors of Tile C pelvic injury after iliolumbar fixation. Methods Between March 2007 and March 2010, 60 patients with Tile C pelvic injuries were surgically treated with iliolumbar fixation, including 39 males and 21 females with an average age of 37 years (range, 17-66 years). Of them, 27 cases were classified as Tile C1, 20 as Tile C2, and 13 as Tile C3. The preoperative injury severity score (ISS) was 12-66 (mean, 29.4). The time from injury to surgery was 2-25 days (mean, 8.1 days). Iliolumbar fixation was performed in all patients. Unconditional logistic analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the age, sex, body mass index (BMI), operation opportunity, the preoperative combined injury, classification of fracture, the postoperative complication, reduction outcome, sacral nerve injury, and the time of physical exercise and the prognosis. Results All 60 patients were followed up 12-56 months (mean, 27.3 months). Infection of incisions occurred in 12 cases and were cured after dressing change; healing of incision by first intention was obtained in the other patients. Delay sacral nerve injury was found in 15 patients, 6 patients underwent nerve decompression, and 9 underwent conservative treatment. Ten patients had nail protrusion of Schanz screws at the posterior superior illac spine, and 3 patients had pain, which was relieved after removal of the internal fixator. One patient had bone-grafting nonunion of sacroiliac joint, which was improved by pressured bone graft. Five patients had the beam breakage without significant effect. Six patients had deep vein thrombosis, among them 4 underwent filter and 2 underwent nonsurgical treatment. The healing time of fracture was 3-6 months (mean, 3.9 months). According to the Matta function score, the results were excellent in 31 cases, good in 24 cases, fair in 3 cases, and poor in 2 cases with an excellent and good rate of 91.7% at last follow-up. Majeed score was 58-100 (mean, 86), 28 were rated as excellent, 12 as good, 16 as fair, and 4 as poor with an excellent and good rate of 66.7%. The logistic analysis showed that the age, sex, BMI, and postoperative complications were not prognostic factors; early operation (within 10 days), early function exercises (within 7 days), the better reduction quality, and the less sacral nerve injury were in favor of prognosis; and the worse preoperative combined injury and pelvic injury were, the worse the prognosis was. Conclusion Operation opportunity, the preoperative combined injury, reduction outcome, sacral nerve injury, and the time of physical exercise are all significantly prognostic factors of Tile C pelvic injuries
Objective To identify the factors which influence the effectiveness of clinical evaluation of undergraduate nursing students. Methods A self-made questionnaire was used in face-to-face interviews with 158 clinical teachers of undergraduate nursing students in four teaching hospitals in Sichuan. Results The main factors that influence the effectiveness of clinical evaluation of undergraduate nursing students included: clinical environment, duration of evaluation, degree of familiarity with the evaluation criteria of clinical teachers, and evaluation methods used by clinical teachers. The less important factors included: “halo-effect” of teachers to students, relationship between teachers and students, attitude towards evaluation and emotional status of clinical teachers. Conclusion It is of great importance to improve the clinical environment, provide enough time for clinical teachers to evaluate, cultivate and improve clinical teachers’ evaluation and competence, and establish a good relationship between teachers and students.This should improve the accuracy, objectivity and fairness of undergraduate nursing students’ clinical evaluation.
Objective To identify related factors of anxiety and depression in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients based on patient-environment-occupation (PEO) model, and provide evidences for clinical practice. Methods A total of 241 patients with SCI treated between April 2014 and April 2015 were collected as the study subjects. All the patients were confirmed with SCI through CT or MRI, and had physical dysfunction. Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) were applied in all the 241 SCI patients to measure their psychological state. Meanwhile, PEO factors such as demographic information as well as ability of activities of daily living (ADL) and relatives’ stress were assessed by self-made questionnaire, Modified Barthel Index (MBI) and Relatives’ Stress Scale (RSS). Then, multiple stepwise regression was applied to identify significant covariance with SAS/SDS as dependent variables and other 14 factors as independent variables. Results The regression equation showed that only SDS, MBI, living environment and disease course were significantly associated with SAS. Only SAS, MBI and RSS were significantly associated with SDS. Conclusions The ability of ADL and environment are significantly correlated with psychological state of SCI patients. Early intervention of ADL and decreasing environmental barriers are needed to improve patients’ psychological state.

Objective To explore the correlative factors affecting the compl ications resulting from cement leakage after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral body compression fractures (OVCF). Methods From February 2005 to October 2008, 71 patients with OVCF were treated by PKP and were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 males and 55 females, and the average age was 71.5 years (range, 52-91 years). The average duration of disease was 5.7 months (range, 1-11 months). A total of 171 vertebra were involved in fracture including 19 cases of single vertebral fractures, 21 cases of double vertebral fractures, 20 cases of three vertebral fractures, and 11 cases of more than three vertebral fractures. All the treated vertebra were divided into acute (86 vertebra) or subacute (85 vertebra) state based on changes in MRI signal intensity. There was no radiculopathy or myelopathy. The average injected cement volumewas 4.6 mL (range, 1.5-6.5 mL). The treatment efficacy was assessed by observing the change in anterior and middle vertebral column height, Cobb angle, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry functional score at preoperation, 3 days after operation and last follow-up. The patients were divided into cement leakage group and no cement leakage group. All the compl ications were recorded, and then the correlative factors affecting the compl ications were analyzed. Results All the cases had rapid and significant improvement in back pain following PKP. All patients were followed up for 14 months (range, 7-18 months). There was no cement extravasation resulting in radiculopathy or myelopathy. Four patients (5.63%) had lung-related compl ications. During the follow-up, 9 recurrence vertebral fractures were observed in 6 patients (8.45%). The anterior and middle vertebral column height, Cobb angle, VAS and Oswestry score were significantly improved when compared with preoperation (P lt; 0.05). Cement leakage occurred in 17 (9.94%) vertebral bodies; of 17 cases, the cement leaked into the paravertebral space in 7 cases, intervertebral space in 6 cases, channel of needl ing insertion in 3 cases, and spinal canal in 1 case. Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences (P lt; 0.05) in preoperative anterior and middle vertebral column height, injected cement volume and vertebral body wall incompetence between the cement leakage group and no cement leakage group. There were no significant differences (P gt; 0.05) in preoperative Cobb angle, freshness of vertebral fracture, location of operative vertebrae and operative approach between the two groups. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the injected cement volume [odds ratio (OR)=3.105, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.674-5.759, P lt; 0.01] and vertebral body wall incompetence (OR=11.960, 95%CI=3.512-40.729, P lt; 0.01) were the predominant variable associated with the compl ications resulted fromcement leakage. Conclusion The injected cement volume and vertebral body wall incompetence were the factors affecting the compl ications. The improvement of surgical technique is the capital factor that may reduce the compl ications in the PKP.
