This study showed that patients got higher scores in Functional scales （except for CF）, and lower scores in Symptom scales and single items （except for FI） after receiving intervention than before it was received before.CONCLUSION The study revealed that the QOL in middleaged male patients after total gastrectomy was worse when there was inadequate attention. After implementing pertinent nursing intervention implementing, patients＇ mental attitude and negative behavior were improved, and their QOL was enhanced after returning home and into society.展开更多

Moreover, 100 normal individuals who came for physical examinations were served as the control group. TCD was used to detect MCA, ACA, PCA, VA1, and BA. CDFI was used to detect CCA, ICA, ECA, and VA2. EDV, PSV, PI, and RI were detected, respectively. The nitrate reductase colorimetric method was used to detect NO, MDA, and SOD.Results:PSV and EDV in the internal carotid artery system in patients with hypertension were significantly reduced (P<0.05), while PI and RI were significantly increased (P<0.05);moreover, with the increasing of hypertension grading, PSV and EDV were gradually reduced, while PI and RI were increased. PSV and EDV in the vertebral artery system in patients with hypertension were significantly reduced (P<0.05), while PI and RI were significantly increased (P<0.05);moreover, with the increasing of hypertension grading, PSV and EDV were gradually reduced, while PI and RI were increased. SOD and NO in patients with hypertension were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), while MDA was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05);moreover, with the increasing of hypertension grading, SOD and NO were gradually reduced, while MDA was gradually increased.Conclusions: TCD in combined with CDFI can make a comprehensive evaluation of hemodynamic indicators of intracranial and extracranial vessels in patients with hypertension, and is of great significance in the early detection of intracranial and extracranial arteriosclerosis.展开更多
