Smoking cessation among self-quitters.

We examined cessation among 630 smokers who quit abruptly on their own. Continuous, complete abstinence rates were 33% at 2 days, 24% at 7 days, 22% at 14 days, 19% at 1 month, 11% at 3 months, 8% at 6 months postcessation, and 3% at 6 months with biochemical verification. Slipping (smoking an average of less than 1 cigarette/day) was common (9% to 15% of subjects) and was a strong predictor of relapse; however, 23% of long-term abstainers slipped at some point. These results challenge beliefs that most smokers can initially stop smoking and that most relapse occurs later on postcessation.     

Smoking cessation among Norwegian adolescents and young adults: preferred cessation methods

Despite generally declining smoking rates, particularly among young people, a large number of people remain smokers and many young people still pick up smoking. Helping smokers quit therefore remains a high priority for the public health sector. In the present study we examined adolescents and young adults' preferences regarding cessation methods and if these differed between genders and depended on smoking frequency. The data came from a nationally representative survey in Norway among 16-20 year olds. Only regular (weekly and daily) smokers were included in the statistical analyses (n = 509, 51% females). The findings suggest that the majority of both male (83.6%) and female (78.4%) smokers would prefer to quit smoking without help. More males than females reported that they would consider using snus as a cessation aid, while females more often reported willingness to attend cessation classes or use brochures and diaries as cessation aids. Both males and females had similar preferences albeit low, regarding the use of health services, nicotine gum or patches and internet and sms-services to quit smoking. Daily smokers would more often than weekly smokers prefer to attend cessation classes, seek help from health services, use nicotine gum or patches or use brochures and diaries. In contrast, weekly smokers preferred to use snus as a cessation aid more often than daily smokers. Identifying and making appropriate cessation methods attractive may lead to successful quitting and consequently public health gains.     

Smoking cessation: social comparison level predicts success for adult smokers.

The affiliation preferences of 151 adult heavy smokers who joined smoking cessation groups were assessed at the 1st group session and were then used to predict their smoking status 6 and 12 months later. Those who preferred to be in groups with other smokers who were having relatively little trouble quitting were more likely to be successful than were those who preferred others who were having more difficulty quitting. This prospective effect was mediated by psychological distancing from the image of the typical smoker: Preference for others who were doing well was associated with a decrease in perceived similarity to the typical smoker, which, in turn, was associated with successful cessation. Implications of these findings for cessation groups and social comparison theory are discussed.

冠状动脉造影及介入治疗选择的临床决策

冠心病是当今威胁人类健康的重要疾病之一,其主要病理生理机制是冠状动脉狭窄或闭塞所致的心肌缺血或坏死.目前,冠状动脉造影(CAG)及经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)已广泛应用于冠心病的确诊和治疗,众多患者为之受益.然而,我们也发现其中部分患者可能不必要接受CAG,或CAG后可能不必要或不宜接受PCI.鉴于此类技术的有创性、风险性、高费用等因素,同时为避免过度诊疗,充分评估已知冠心病介入治疗的选择及未知胸痛或其他情况CAG的选择,正确进行临床决策十分必要.     

阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征与冠状动脉支架再狭窄关系的研究

探讨冠状动脉内支架再狭窄与阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征（OSAHS）的关系及其机制.选择冠状动脉支架植入术后患者172例,其中43例确诊患OSAHS者为研究组,129例无OSAHS的患者为对照组.支架术后第3年行冠状动脉造影术,同时检测患者静脉血中TNF-α、IL-6、IL-4、IL-5、IL-10水平.OSAHS患者7例发生支架内再狭窄,比率16.26%,明显高于对照组6例,比率5.67%（P〈0.01）;OSAHS患者血清中TNF-α、IL-6浓度高于对照组（P〈0.01）;IL-4、IL-5、IL-10水平低于对照组（P〈0.01）.合并OSAHS的患者,支架再狭窄的发生率高于非OSAHS患者,而OSAHS引发的炎症介质水平改变及炎症反应失衡可能与支架再狭窄有关.     

冠心病的外科治疗

首例成功的冠状动脉旁路移植术（CABG）手术完成于1960年,随着体外循环技术的成熟,CABG手术得以不断发展。20世纪90年代,以非体外循环下冠脉旁路移植术（0PCAB）为代表的微创冠脉搭桥手术逐渐应用于临床,并取得满意的临床效果。尽管冠脉介入技术（PCI）以其创伤小的优点在冠心病的治疗方面蓬勃发展,但是CABG在远期通畅性方面仍然占据优势地位,因此CABG仍然是冠心病治疗的效果确定的一种方法。

Confrontation naming in Alzheimer's patients: relation to disease severity.

Reports of Alzheimer's disease patients in whom naming performance is disproportionate to other cognitive performances raise questions about the stage model, or dementia-severity level, for predicting naming performance. Thus, dementia severity as defined by Global Deterioration Scale ratings, Mini-Mental State Examination scores, and combinations of them was evaluated as a predictor of naming performance in 102 Alzheimer's patients and was found to account for approximately 1/3 of performance variability. Additional contributions from age at onset, duration, family history, and gender were negligible. Therefore, naming ability can be argued to have a subcomponent that is not subsumed by overall cognitive ability.     

Interpersonal Hostility Assessment Technique: Description and Validation Against the Criterion of Coronary Artery Disease

High levels of hostility are associated with adverse health outcomes. The Interpersonal Hostility Assessment Technique (IHAT; Barefoot, 1992) measures hostility from verbal behavior during a standardized interview. Four types of behaviors are scored as hostility: evading the question, irritation, and indirect and direct challenges to the interviewer. The sum of the frequencies of these acts is a Hostile Behavior Index (HBI), which is divided into two components: verbal, scored with speech content in mind, and paraverbal, based on vocal stylistics. This study examined characteristics of IHAT assessments in 129 male coronary patients. Satisfactory interrater reliabilities were obtained. The HBI correlated highly (.58) with coronary artery disease severity after controlling for traditional risk factors. This relation was not affected by question topic or by differential weighting of the four hostile, behaviors. Both HBI components were significantly correlated with disease. Results are discussed in terms of their implications for hostility assessment.     

单纯糖耐量受损的冠心病患者临床及冠脉造影特点分析

入选空腹血糖正常并通过冠脉造影（CAG）确诊为冠心病（CAD）的患者104例行糖耐量试验（OGTT ）,将糖耐量正常（NGT ）者、单纯负荷后2h 血糖受损者（I-IGT ）与同期合并糖尿病（DM ）并通过 CAG 确诊为 CAD 的患者38例对照。结果,（1）DM 组甘油三酯（TG）、总胆固醇（TC）、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（LDL-C）、载脂蛋白（Apo）、高敏-C 反应蛋白（hs-CRP）、尿微量白蛋白、尿酸（UA）高于 NGT 组（P＜0．05或 P＜0．01）,且 I-IGT 组体质量指数（BMI）最大,与 NGT组及 DM 组比较有统计学意义（P＜0．01）;（2）I-IGT 、DM 组冠状动脉病变支数、重度狭窄、闭塞、弥漫性病变、病变总积分、右冠状动脉病变比例均高于 NGT 组（P＜0．05或 P＜0．01）;（3）DM 组三支病变、弥漫性病变、冠状动脉病变总积分均高于 I-IGT 组（P＜0．05）。因此,空腹血糖正常的 CAD 患者均应行 OGTT 检查,以降低糖耐量异常的漏诊率;I-IGT 患者发生心血管疾病的危险性增加,且随着糖代谢异常的加重而加剧,应及早干预。
