    Objective To analyze the condition and influence factors of the psychosomatic health in medical college students and supply the support to conduct the targeted mental health education. Methods A total of 669 students from a medical college were measured by using self-designed question-naire and Symptom Checklist 90. Results Symptom Checklist 90 had good reliability and validity indicators. About 26.61% of medical college students had compulsion symptom, which was the biggest proportion. The proportion from high to low was interpersonal sensitivity, depression, psychotieism, paranoididefition, anxiety, hostility, somatization, photic anxiety. Mean scores of compulsion, depression, anxiety, phobia anxiety, psychoticism were higher than Chinese youth norm. The differences were statistically significant. Mean scores of female depression, anxiety, phobia anxiety were higher than those of male. The differences of hostility, phobia anxiety, paranoid ideation were statistically significant among different grades. Through POSTHOC multiple comparison by SNK-q test, the results showed the score of hostility factor for grade 3 was higher than those of grade 1, 2 and 4. At the same time, the score of phobia anxiety factor for grade 1 was higher than that of grade 4 and the score of paranoid ideation factor for grade 3 was higher than that of grade 1. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that family residence, physical exercise, breakfast times per week, fruits and vegetables per day, staying up late per week, surfing the Internet per day were Influencing factors.

    Objective To explore the characteristics of anxiety, depression and sleep of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients, and reveal its intrinsic relationship. Methods 45 IBS patients were chose as case group and 45 healthy people were chosen through health examination as control group. With self rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depressive scale (SDS) and pittsburgh sleep quality index scale (PSQI), we investigated the two subjects, and then compared the incidence rates of anxiety, depression and somnipathy, and scores of sleep quality between the two groups. Results The incidence rates of anxiety, depression and somnipathy in the IBS group were respectively 28.9%, 40.0% and 48.9%, all much bigger than those of the control group (respectively 8.9%, 11.1% and 17.8%, all P<0.05). Scores of sleep quality, daytime dysfunction, somnipathy and sleeping pills in the IBS group were much higher than those of the control group (P<0.01), but there were no statistical significance about the time falling asleep, bed time and sleep efficiency between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion IBS patients had fairly severe anxiety, depression and somnipathy, and their total sleep quality was worse than healthy population.

    Objective To explore the correlated risk factors of operation on Urinary System complicated with Urinary Tract Infection, and to provide basis for preventing and treating the infection. Methods We retrospectively chose 345 cases of operation on urinary system, according to the happening of urinary tract infection after 6 weeks of operation, divided them into infection group and non-infection group. Correlated risk factors possibly causing urinary tract infection after operation were collected, and risk factors were screened by single factor and multiple factors analysis methods. Results The incidence rate of operation on urinary system complicated with urinary tract infection was 11.9% (40/345). Single factor analysis showed that age, combined with diabetes mellitus, urinary tract infection of anamnesis, use of antibiotic before operation, diagnosis and treatment of traumatic, trauma score, time of catheter indwelling, length of stay and residual urine of leaving hospital influenced the incidence of urinary tract infection. Multiple factor analysis results showed that urinary tract infection of anamnesis (OR=2.878), diagnosis and treatment of traumatic (OR=3.019), trauma score (OR=2.631) and time of catheter indwelling (OR=3.367) were the risk factors of urinary tract infection, while the use of antibiotic before operation (OR=0.268) was the protective factor of urinary tract infection. Conclusion The incidence rate of operation on urinary system complicated with urinary tract infection is a little high, and we should control infection before and after operation, decrease traumatic diagnosis and treatment, and reduce the incidence of urinary tract infection after operation.

    Objective To investigate the correlation between serum vitamin D3 level and disease severity and disease control in children with asthmatic. Methods 144 cases of children with asthma were divided into mild intermittent group (n=35 cases), mild group (n=36 cases), moderate group (n=48 cases) and severe group (n=25 cases) according to the degree of the disease, and 50 cases of healthy children were selected as control group. Serum 25-(OH)D3 level was detected in control children and asthma children and the childhood asthma control test (C-ACT) was used for evaluation of children with asthma control after 4 weeks treatment. All asthma children were divided into not controlled group, partly controlled group and completely controlled group according to the C-ACT, and serum 25-(OH)D3 levels were compared between groups. Results There were statistically significant differences in serum 25-(OH)D3 levels among the control group, mild intermittent group, mild group, moderate group, and severe group (P<0.05), and from control group to severe group serum, serum 25-(OH)D3 levels gradually decreased (P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in serum 25-(OH)D3 levels among not controlled group, partly controlled group and completely controlled group (P<0.05), and from completely controlled group to not controlled group, serum 25-(OH)D3 levels gradually decreased (P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that serum 25-(OH)D3 level was negatively correlated with disease severity (rs=-0.489, P<0.05), and serum 25-(OH)D3 level was also negatively correlated with C-ACT score (rs=-0.470, P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that risk ratio of asthma children with severity and C-ACT score <19 points of value increased gradually when the serum 25-(OH)D3 level decreased. Conclusion Serum 25-(OH)D3 level is closely related to asthmatic severity and disease control, and early detection of serum vitamin D level has a certain significance in evaluation asthmatic severity and recent prognosis in children with asthma.
