Objective To investigate the value of N-termind pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-pro-BNP)in differential diagnosis of dyspnea in emergency department, and to investigate the rapid diagnosis cutoff of dyspnea due to acute congestive heart failure. Methods Ninety. one cases of dyspnea in emergency department recruited from January to June ,2008 were divided into two groups: acute cardiac dyspnea group and none acute cardiac dyspnea group. To evaluate the value of different parameters in differential diagnosis of dyspnea in emergency department and analysis the area under the receiver-operating characteristic of different parameters for the diagnosis of acute cardiac dyspnea. To achieve the best cutoff of different parameters for the diagnosis of dyspnea due to acute congestive heart failure finally. Results Among two groups, NT-pro-BNP (acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,6203.50 ng/L vs. 1410.00 ng/L,P ＜ 0.01), Troponin Ⅰ (acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,0.12 μg/L vs. 0.03 μg/L,P ＜0.01) ,left ventricular ejection fraction(acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,46.25% vs. 65.60%, P ＜ 0.01), left atrial diameter (acute cardiac dyspnea vs. none acute cardiac dyspnea,42.75 mm vs. 36.00 mm,P ＜0.01) had significant difference. NT-pro-BNP at cutoff of ≥3715 ng/L was highly sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of acute cardiac dyspnea. Receiver-operating characteristic analyses demonstrated that NT-pro-BNP and left ventricular ejection fraction was the best diagnostic indices of acute cardiac dyspnea. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve of Nt-pro-BNP was 0.828 ± 0.045 (P ＜ 0.01),and left ventricular ejection fraction was 0.829 ± 0.049 (P ＜ 0.01). Correlation analysis showed that NT-pro-BNP was correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (P ＜ 0.01). The combined test of NT-pro-BNP and left ventricular ejection fraction was performed. Specificity increased to 96.50%, total consistent rate increased to 83.50% ,positive predictive value increased to 91.30%, positive likelihood ratio 17.60, faulse diagnostic rate decreased to 3.50%. Conclusions NT-pro-BNP examination in emergency department was helpful to rapid differential diagnosis of dyspnea. It helped to differentiate the patients with acute congestive heart failure and none acute congestive heart failure causes of dyspnea.

The children with pulmonary hypermastigote infection,has not been reported at home and abroad.In recent years,we have carried out the children's electronic bronchoscopy,bronchoalveolar lavage fluid routine smear examination,found a lively movement round or oval body-hypermastigote.Metronidazole treatment is effective in controlling the disease.After discovery,understanding,rediscovery,reunderstanding,now have a preliminary understanding of the disease,first reported as follows.

Objective:To construct a fusion DNA vaccine pEGFP-C3-B7.2-hTERT and to observe the capability of pEGFP-C3-B7.2-hTERT DNA vaccine to induce specific anti-tumor immune responses and to inhibit growth of the hepatoma transplanted from H22 cells. Methods: The B7.2 and hTERT cDNA (amplified by RT-PCR), together with pEGFP-C3 as the vector were used to construct fusion gene plasmid pEGFP-C3-B7.2-hTERT, which was then used to vaccinated C57BL/6 mice for 3 times at a 7 d interval. Animals vaccinated with pEGFP-C3-B7.2, pEGFP-C3-hTERT, pEGFP-C3 and PBS were taken as controls. Splenocytes CTLs of immunized mice, the levels of IL-2, IFN-? in the culture supernatant, the levels of antibodies against hTERT, and the changes of the T lymphocyte subsets in the peripheral blood were all examined. The mice harboring hepatocarcinoma H22 cells were challenged with pEGFP-C3-B7.2-hTERT and the tumor forming time and the survival periods of mice were observed. Results: Agarose gel electrophoresis, nuclease digestion and sequencing confirmed the successful construction of pEGFP-C3-B7.2-hTERT. The CTLs activity of splenocytes from the mice immunized with pEGFP-C3-B7.2-hTERT fusion gene was significantly higher than those of the other groups (P

Objective:To explore the relationship among occupational benefits,turnover intention and quality of life in nurses using structural equation model,thus to provide evidence for improving the quality of life.Method:We conduct a survey among 965 nurses using the general information questionnaire,the occupational benefits scale,turnover intention scale (TIS) and the SF-36 scale.Restult:The total score of occupational benefits was (135.79 ± 18.82),the TIS score was (13.48 ±4.11),and the SF-36 score was (532.91 ± 141.75).There was a positive correlation between occupational benefits and the quality of life,and the turnover intention was negatively correlated with the quality of life.Structural equation model analysis showed that the occupational benefits and turnover intention had a direct significant effect on nurses' quality of life;occupational benefits has a direct negative effect on turnover intention,and indirectly effects quality of life of nurse through the mediating effect of turnover intention.Conclusion:The nurses' quality of life needs to be improved,and occupational benefits and turnover intention have significant prediction effect on quality of life.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the characters of hospital infection among deceased inpatients.METHODS The inpatients who died in hospital from Jan 2004 to Dec 2005 were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS The infection rate of deceased inpatients was 40.11%,and the location majored in respiratory tract,urinary system and digestive tract.The infection rate was apparently higher among the cases more than 60 years old,and those with hematological disease,circulatory disease and nervous system disease.The hospital infection rate was related with long hospitalization and had seasonal fluctuation.CONCLUSIONS The high hospital infection rate among deceased pabients may be related with the seriously underlying diseases, aging,drug abuse and invasive therapy.

Objective To explore the relationship of perceived professional benefit, job satisfaction, and retention willingness of nurses. Methods Convenience sampling method was adopted to investigate 493 nurses from 3 tertiary grade A hospitals in Taian. Results The mean scores of nurses′perceived professional benefit, job satisfaction, and retention willingness were 134.19 ± 19.79,121.52 ± 18.41, and 21.18 ± 4.23, respectively. Perceived professional benefit and job satisfaction were positively correlated with retention willingness (P<0.01). Job satisfaction played a partial mediation role in the relationship between perceived professional benefit and retention willingness. Conclusion Job satisfaction and perceived professional benefit have a positive influence on nurses′retention willingness .

Objective To find out the material base of the induction and aggravation of psoriasis by psycological factors such as stress and depression etc. Methods Radioimmunoassay (RIA) was used to determine the effect of sera from 49 psoriatic patients and 34 healthy controls on the suppression of the lymphocyte transformation of normal mouse lymphocytes. Results The lymphocyte transformation rate of mouse lymphocytes treated with the sera of psoriatic patients was 41.55%, and that of controls was 68.09%. The suppressive effect of sera in patients during the progressive stage and with more extensive lesions were stronger than that in the stable stage and with less lesions (P

Objective To investigate change of Th 1/Th 2 Cytokines in the rats with spleen deficiency syndrome and effect of decoction of SiJunZi on it. Methods The contents of IL-4 and IFN-? in the T cells of the rats with spleen deficiency syndrome before and after treatment of decoction of SiJunZi and powder of ChaiHuShuGan were detected by ELISA. Results Compared with normal group, the content of IFN-? decreased (P0 05). After treated with powder of ChaiHuShuGan, the levels of IL-4 and IFN-? did not obviously change compared with normal group (P

Objective To investigate the effect of diagnostic ultrasound on cochlear hair cells in fetal guinea pigs. Methods Diagnostic ultrasound was used to irradiate the uteri of early pregnant guinea pigs(the first 15 days of gestion) and late pregnant guinea pigs(the 40th to 45th days of gestion) for 5 minutes daily. The number of cochlear hair cells in fetal guinea pigs was calculated using succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) staining, and computer image analysis system. The morphological change of cochlear hair cells was observed with scanning electron microscope(SEM). Results Compared with non-exposed control group, the number of total hair cells obviously decreased in the two exposed groups (P
