Clinical effect of under the diaphragm by stasis soup combinated with point thread-embedding on infertility patients with obesity-type polycystic ovary syndrome

Objective:To study the clinical effect of under the diaphragm by stasis soup combinated with point thread-embedding on infertility patients with obesity-type polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and evaluate the the rate of ovulation and pregnancy.Method:Selecting 100 infertility patients with obesity-type PCOS, then they were randomly divided into control group (n=80) and observation group (n=80). The control group patients were given metformin+ under the diaphragm by stasis soup, the observation group were given metformin + exenatide + point thread-embedding, they were treated 3 months. Before and after treatment, we observed the changes of body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hipratio (WHR), fasting plasma glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPBG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides (TG), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), fasting plasma insulin (FINS), follicule-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), LH/FSH, estrogen (E2), and testosterone (T). At last, we assessed the rate of ovulation and pregnancy.Results: After the treatment, the FBG, 2hPBG, TC, LDL-C, TG, BMI, WHR, HOMA-IR, FINS, LH, LH/FSH, E2, and T were lower than before treatment in both groups, and the difference had statistical significance, and the observation group were lower than control group, and the difference had statistical significance;the HDL-C and FSH were higher than before treatment in both groups, and the difference had statistical significance, and the observation group were higher than control group, and the difference had statistical significance. The rate of ovulation and pregnancy in the observation group were higher than control group, and the difference had statistical significance.Conclusions:Under the diaphragm by stasis soup combinated with point thread-embedding can improve the metabolize of carbohydrate and lipid, and the abnormity of sex hormones, through this process, the rate of ovulation and pregnancy can be raised.

Temporal patterns and clinical characteristics of healthcare-associated infections in surgery patients:A retrospective study in a major Chinese tertiary hospital

Background:Given the preventable nature of most healthcare-associated infections(HAIs),it is crucial to under-stand their characteristics and temporal patterns to reduce their occurrence.Methods:A retrospective analysis of medical record cover pages from a Chinese hospital information system was conducted for surgery inpatients from 2010 to 2019.Association rules mining(ARM)was employed to explore the association between disease,procedure,and HAIs.Joinpoint models were used to estimate the annual HAI trend.The time series of each type of HAI was decomposed to analyze the temporal patterns of HAIs.Results:The study included data from 623,290 surgery inpatients over 10 years,and a significant decline in the HAI rate was observed.Compared with patients without HAIs,those with HAIs had a longer length of stay(29 days vs.9 days),higher medical costs(96226.57 CNY vs.22351.98 CNY),and an increased risk of death(6.42%vs.0.18%).The most common diseases for each type of HAI differed,although bone marrow and spleen operations were the most frequent procedures for most HAI types.ARM detected that some uncommon diagnoses could strongly associate with HAIs.The time series pattern varied for each type of HAI,with the peak occurring in January for respiratory system infections,and in August and July for surgical site and bloodstream infections,respectively.Conclusions:Our findings demonstrate that HAIs impose a significant burden on surgery patients.The differing time series patterns for each type of HAI highlight the importance of tailored surveillance strategies for specific types of HAI.

Study on myocardial infarction based on nationwide inpatient sample database:a bibliometric analysis from 2000 to 2022

Background:Studies on myocardial infarction(MI)based on large medical databases have become popular in recent years.The influence of the National Inpatient Sample(NIS),the largest collection of administrative healthcare data across the United States,on the field of MI has not been well investigated.This study aimed to quantify the contribution of NIS to MI research using bibliometric methods.Methods:We searched the Web of Science Core Collection database to identify publications on MI using NIS from 2000 to 2022.Bibliometric indicators,such as the number of publications,citations,and Hirsch index(H-index),were summarized by years,authors,organizations,and journals.VOSviewer and CiteSpace software were used to analyze the keywords and trends of the hot spots.Results:A total of 342 articles on MI based on NIS were included.A significant growth in outputs related to MI using the NIS from 2000 to 2020 was observed.The publications were mainly from the United States.The Mayo Clinic was the most prolific institution and had the most citations and the highest H-index.The American Journal of Cardiology ranked first among journals with the highest number of publications,citations,and H-index.Mortality and healthcare management are the main focuses of this field.Personalized risks and care are receiving increased attention.Conclusion:This study suggests that NIS significantly contributes to high-quality output in MI research.More efforts are needed to improve the impact of knowledge gained from the NIS on MI.
