Objective In order to explore the incidence of PTSD and its risk factors after flood. Methods Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (Ⅳ Edition) was used to examine and diagnose the victims in flood district. Results The positive rate of PTSD was 30 9%.The results of logistic regression analysis showed that sex(OR=2 32), age (OR=1 83),style of flood (OR=3 71)and dissatisfaction for sustaining (OR=0 84)were risk factors. Conclusions PTSD is a common mental disorder after flood in our country. Preventive measures should be taken to protect population from PTSD in flood district.

Objective:To explore the incidence of PTSD and its risk factors among adults in flood district.Methods:Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders(Ⅳ Edition) were used to examine and diagnose the victims.Results:The positive rate of PTSD was 33.8%.The results of logistic regression analysis showed that style of flood (OR=4.07),having been besieged by the flood when waiting for resue(OR=2.65),seeing other people drowned by flood(OR=2.77),having the experience of staying with the dead in flood(OR=3.14) and level of satisfaction with sustaining(OR=0.72) were risk factors.Conclusion:PTSD is a not uncommon mental disorder among adults in flood district in our country and psychosocial intervention is needed.

Objective: To observe the oral care effects of finger toothbrush. Methods: The finger toothbrush worn on the index finger was made of silica gel .It was used to brush the in vitro healthy teeth pulled out on the same day and the standard hard plaster tooth model and to brush the in vivo healthy teeth in adults; the bacteria in the finger toothbrush, The dentofacial pluque and the abrasion on the tooth model were tested respectively. Results: After in vivo use the bacteria remained in the finger toothbrush were fewer than those in the commonly used toothbrush(1 683.24?1 355.59 and 2 353.76?1 582.06 respectively). The dentofacial plaque was decreased in the same extent by the two kinds of toothbrushes. The zero rate of abrasion on the tooth model was 93.3%(28/30) by finger toothbrush and 23.3%(14/30) by the commonly used toothbrush. Conclusion: The finger toothbrush worn on finger can remove dentofacial plaque effectively and produce a lower abrasion on tooth.

Twelve community nursing managers were interviewed.The consensus was reached that there should be 4 main themes concerning evaluation indicators of community nursing quality:necessity,content,format and expectation.The interviewed nursing managers expressed their need for a system of community nursing quality evaluation,and those indicators should be comprehensive,concrete and practical.The format of evaluation should facilitate the development of nursing quality and the criteria should meet the requirements of Minister of Health and international standards.

The particularity and complexity of medical support in the United Nations peacekeeping operations bring various ethical problems to medical staff of the second-grade peacekeeping hospitals during their work.This paper analyzed the ethical dilemma in terms of the relevant provisions of the United Nations,the medical humanitarianism principle,lack of medical resources and the principle of fairness,emergency treatment and informed consent,cultural differences and the principle of optimal health,occupational protection requirements and respect to the human rights.In addition,it discussed the countermeasures from personnel selection,the laws and regulations,the training of medical norms and foreign customs,the concept of “patient-centered”,and the humanitarian treatment,providing a theoretical basis for solving the problems of medical support in peacekeeping operations.

Objective To investigate the role of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) in partial pathologic process of lung injury in rat models of fat embolism syndrome (FES).Methods A total of 120 healthy male C57BL/6J mice were assigned to control group and FES group which was subgrouped at 4,6,12,24,and 48 hours with 20 mice per group,according to the random number table.Allogeneic perinephric fat was injected to rat caudal veins in FES groups.Lung samples were harvested from each group to examine pathological morphology and lung weight to dry ratio (W/D) to verify the FES models and observe the pathologic process.Expression of AQP4 was detected by western blot and immunohistochemistry.Additional 36 C57BL/6J mice were divided into control group,DMSO group,FES 12-hour group,and AQP4 inhibitor group according to the random number table,with 9 mice per group.Pathologic process of FES-induced lung injury was detected after the inhibition of AQP4.Results Damage to lung tissues was notable in FES group compared with control group.Lung W/D value was 5.06 ± 1.23,5.22 ± 1.58,6.18 ± 1.65,and 5.07 ± 0.31 at 6,12,24,and 48 hours respectively,which was higher than 3.16 ± 1.58 in control group (F =3.62,P ＜ 0.05).Expression of AQP4 was 1.71 ± 1.05 at 12 hours and 1.28 ± 0.68 at 24 hours in FES group,which showed significantly increase when compared with 0.65 ±0.08 in control group (F =4.12,P ＜0.01),whereas at 4 hours (0.76 ± 0.36),6 hours (1.17 ± 0.60),and 48 hours (0.85 ±0.45) in FES group,no statistical difference was observed when compared to control group.W/D value in FES 12-hour group (5.22 ± 1.17),DMSO group (4.96 ±1.66),and AQP4 inhibitor group (3.25 ± 1.19) was higher than 3.03 ± 1.68 in control group (F =3.69,P ＜ 0.05).Meanwhile,there was no statistical difference between DMSO and FES 12-hour groups,but significantly lowered W/D value was observed in AQP4 inhibitor group than in FES 12-hour group.Conclusion AQP4 may be implicated in mitigating lung injury induced by FES.

Objective: To determine the potential diagnostic value of miRNA-29 (miR-29) for malignant tumor. Methods: A systematic search of literature regarding miR-29 was performed in three English databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase) and two Chinese databases (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI] and WanFang). The retrieval was ended until September 15, 2018. Search terms included miRNA-29 (miR-29), tumor, cancer, serum, plasma, diagnosis, etc. Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 (QUADAS-2) was carried out to evaluate the quality of the selected articles. STATA12.0 was used to calculate the combined sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio (PLR), negative likelihood ratio (NLR) and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR). Subgroup analysis and Meta-regression analysis were carried out to explore the origin of heterogeneity. Results: Twenty eligible articles were selected from 1 172 literatures related to tumors and miR-29. The combined sensitivity was 0.76 (95%CI: 0.68-0.83), combined specificity was 0.83 (95%CI: 0.74-0.89), combined PLR was 4.5 (95%CI: 2.7-7.4), combined NLR was 0.28 (95%CI: 0.20-0.41), DOR was 16 (95%CI: 7-35), and theAUC was 0.86 (95%CI: 0.83-0.89). The combined specificity of plasma samples was higher than that of serum samples, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). There was a higher diagnostic value of miR-29 for breast cancer and pancreatic cancer (DOR=101.52, 11.22), but lower diagnostic value for colorectal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (DOR=5.05, 6.57); miR-29b showed a high diagnostic value for cancer (DOR=60.91). The publication bias was not obvious in this study (P>0.05). Conclusion: This systematic review and Meta-analysis suggests that miR-29 family is a potential biomarker in the diagnosis of cancers with great sensitivity and specificity.

A biomedical entity association evolution network was constructed by mining the implicit associations in PubMed-covered literature, which can help scientific researchers to form new scientific hypotheses, to analyze the topological features of associated network, to study the scientific literature-enriched knowledge structure, associa-tions, development rules, to introduce new visual angles and methods for literature-based knowledge discovery, and to improve the knowledge discovery efficiency.
