Objective To investigate the relative factors of sleep disorders in patients after arthroscopic knee surgery.MethodsThe clinical data of 155 patients undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from October 1st 2017 to April 1st 2018 were analyzed. The sleep quality index was assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. According to the scores, the patients were divided into two groups: the sleep disorder group and the non-sleep disorder group. Mindfulness level were evaluated by Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS). The binary logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between MAAS and sleep disorders.ResultsAmong the enrolled cases, there were 135 males and 20 females, with an average age of (34.12±12.13) years; 64 patients had poor sleep quality. The results of univariate analysis showed that the payment method, single or bilateral lesions, and MAAS score were the factors affecting sleep (P<0.05). The results of multivariate analysis indicated that with medical insurance [odds ratio (OR)=0.118, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.021, 0.671), P=0.016], postoperative pain [OR=3.379, 95%CI (1.164, 9.812), P=0.025], bilateral lesions [OR=3.842, 95%CI (1.040, 14.191), P=0.044], and MAAS score ≥68 [OR=0.046, 95%CI (0.018, 0.121), P<0.001] were independent predictive factors for sleep disorders (P<0.05). Conclusion Postoperative pain reduction and mindfulness training may improve the patients’ sleep quality and reduce the incidence of sleep disorders.
ObjectiveTo investigate the current research status and its developing trend of Crohn’s disease (CD) in Chinese journals in the past 40 years, and to provide reference for future research on CD.MethodsWith “Crohn’s disease” as the retrieval word, the literature about CD published from January 1978 to December 2017 were retrieved in the SinoMed database. The distributions of publication dates, journals, research institutions, and regions of literature were analyzed by EndNote, Excel, MySQL, and GraphPad Prism softwares.ResultsA total of 2 140 papers matched the searching criteria, including 1 391 papers published in the core journals. The number of papers increased by year, especially in the past 20 years, the growth rate of the total number of papers every 5 years was 96.67%, 202.54%, 85.15%, and 29.35%, respectively. A total of 152 papers met the criteria of evidence-based documents, and the proportion of evidence-based articles in the total papers every 5 years was 2.54%, 3.92%, 4.69%, and 12.16%, respectively. In the respect of region distribution of literature, the first addresses of 1 060 papers were in East China, accounting for 50.36% of the total number of papers. Jiangsu Province, Guangdong Province, Shanghai, Zhejiang Province, and Beijing had published a total of 1 257 papers, accounting for 59.71% of the total number of papers. In our research field, most of the studies were conducted by teaching hospitals.ConclusionsIn the past 40 years, the output of research on CD increased significantly in China. The proportion of evidence-based articles has increased, while the number of evidence-based research still needs to be improved. The regional distribution of literature was unbalanced, and teaching hospitals played a vital role in the research field.
