Purpose This study aimed to assess the effects of transitional health management on adherence and prognosis in elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods We conducted trial from June 2016 December 2016. A total one hundred fifty after PCI who met inclusion criteria were randomly divided into an experimental (n = 75) group a control group. The participants received for three months. two groups evaluated treatment adherence, quality...

(1) Background: Our previous study found that the dietary fiber supplement in patients with hypertension increased SCFA-producers, Bififidobacterium and Spirillum gut microbiota, which may be associated improvement of depression anxiety through gut-brain axis. However, only a few studies have explored association between intake (DFI) incidence hypertensive patients. (2) Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted one comprehensive hospital community clinic aimed at understanding status...

Abstract Background Most hypertensive clients are elderly, whose health-related quality of life (HRQL) may be associated with self-perceptions aging (older individuals’ beliefs about their own aging). Meanwhile, culture and health disparities between rural urban populations substantial. Whether there differences in aging, HRQL, association among elderly areas remains unknown. The objective this study was to investigate compare HRQL older Chinese clients. Methods A cross-sectional...

Background In China, quality of life (QOL) the elderly with hypertension was lower than that normal and self‐perceptions aging (SPA) in chronic diseases have been shown. Previous studies showed SPA played a key role QOL elderly. We hypothesised were associated Chinese hypertension, more negative predicting QOL. Methods A cross‐sectional survey conducted one comprehensive hospital, 15 urban community clinics 22 rural village Suzhou. total, 1029 completed self‐administered questionnaires,...

Psychological distress and negative conditions are highly frequent in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) has been shown to be effective reducing psychological symptoms chronic diseases. The available evidence supported the potential benefit of MBSR for PCI patients. However, traditional group classroom format long exercise times were deemed as barriers access these aim this study was examine short-term effectiveness a brief,...

Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury is the main cause of death worldwide and poses a significant threat to cardiac health. Ginsenoside Rg1 has been shown have inhibitory effects on inflammatory activation, oxidative stress, injury, suggesting that may therapeutic MI/R injury. However, mechanism remains be further studied.

Abstract Currently, sensor energy assembly in wireless networks is limited, and clustering methods are not effective to improve consumption rate. Thus, a hierarchical energy-saving routing algorithm based on fuzzy logic was constructed by considering three aspects: residual value, centrality, distance value between nodes base stations. The remaining selected have longer time live greater than those low-power adaptive protocol algorithm, unequal cluster head election algorithm. For network...

Abstract Objective There have been studies investigating sex differences in clinical manifestation of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, underweight and body mass index (BMI) de novo PD patients lacked systematic study. We aimed to compare features related factors BMI Chinese patients. Materials Methods A total 253 untreated inpatients 218 controls were recruited from Ningbo. BMI, demographics, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), supine upright blood pressure, Hamilton Anxiety Scale...

Abstract Background At present, China has more than 11 million patients with stable coronary heart disease and this is becoming a major public health problem. The pathological changes of can lead to dysfunction the cardiac autonomic nervous system, which increases risk complications such as malignant arrhythmia (ventricular flutter, ventricular fibrillation, etc.), rate, systolic blood pressure, rate-pressure product (RPP), highly correlated myocardial oxygen consumption indirectly reflects...

Depression and anxiety often co-occur in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients undergoing percutaneous intervention (PCI). This study was conducted to examine the predictive value of depression, anxiety, their combination on prognosis Chinese PCI patients. A multicenter prospective undertaken with a sample 309 primary The Hospital Anxiety Scale (HADS) completed at baseline assess depression symptoms. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) were recorded for 12 months after . Days from...

To determine the effects of slow breathing exercise (SBE) on heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).The study is a single-blind, randomized controlled trial. Seventy-eight eligible primary PCI were divided randomly into either control group or trial group. The only received routine post-PCI care. In addition to care, participants performed SBE at home, two three times for total 30 min every day 12 weeks. main outcomes HR BP measured...

Daily weight monitoring is frequently recommended as a part of heart failure self-management to prevent exacerbations. This study identify factors that influence compliance congestive patients at baseline and after 1-year management (WM) program.This was secondary analysis an investigative randomized controlled study. A general information questionnaire assessed patient demographics clinical variables such medicine use diagnoses, the scale evaluated their WM abilities. Good poor based on...

Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) has been identified as the key receptor of SARS coronavirus that plays a role in pathogenesis SARS. It is known ACE2 mRNA can be expressed most organs. However, protein expression not clear yet. To explore precipitating factor digestive organ damage COVID-19, this study investigated human liver, esophagus, stomach, and colon. The result showed colon, which suggests SARS-CoV-2 may enter system through cause liver gastrointestinal damage. hoped will...

The software defined optical network (SDON) service plays an important role in the production and operation of system. It's to solve problem how reduce risk distribute path more rationally. However, most existing algorithms do not take into account importance. In this paper, a balancing routing assignment mechanism based importance is proposed. Finally, simulation shows that compared with other two methods, SIRBRM can link overall risk, make distribution uniform.

At present, it is rare for studies to be performed on the impact of self-perceptions aging compliance behaviour elderly people.The present study explored relationship between self-perceived level and behavior among asample Chinese hypertension patients. Participants (N=1129) were recruited from four community health service centres two township hospitals in Suzhou. Self-perceptions represent an independent risk factor patients with hypertension. had acute/chronic timeliness (OR=0.793),...

This paper proposed a novel routing strategy with two tunable parameters, [Formula: see text], based on the dynamic local information in finite buffer network. The system behaves differently from that degree an adjustable parameter text]. Simulations show that, under strategy, maximal capacity of network increases text] whereas it decrement case all nodes having identical delivering ability. performs much better than routing, which is demonstrated by larger value critical packet generation...

Background: The relationships between the endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs)-CD34 + and CD14 coronary artery disease (CAD) were reported association of CD34 with renal function was studied previously. Another kind EPC-CD14 cell its in patients CAD have not been yet. Our aim to assess counts versus CAD. Methods Results: We 242 severe angiographic 30 healthy control participants. enumerated by flow cytometry. With lowering glomerular filtration rate (GFR), numbers (percentage lymphocytes,...

In multi-cell multi-user massive MIMO systems, pilot contamination(PC) caused by reuse will reduce the performance of channel estimation. Aiming at drawbacks weighted graph coloring based decontamination (WGC-PD) algorithm, assignment ignores users lower potential contamination, which allocates interference for user higher contamination sequentially, and a joint power control algorithm is proposed. The proposed improves WGC-PD sets threshold in assignment, determines whether assign small to...
