Objective To investigate the causes of complications induced by peripherally inserted central catheters(PICC)in cancer patients and summarize pertinent nursing measures.Method The clinical data of 26 tumor patients with PICC were analyzed retrospectively .Result The complications occurred in 8 patients with a rate of 30.8%, among which unsuccessful catheteration occurred in 1 case,oozing of blood at the mouth of catheter in 1 case,phlebitis in 1 case,dislocation in 1 case,skin allergy-like reactions in 2 cases and catheter emersion in 1 case,catheter breaking in 1 case and dislocation in 2 cases.Conclusion The skilled operation,preventive maintenance of catheters and health education to the patients are the important measures for prevention and reduction of the complications.

Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) pretreatment on neurological function, and the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and nuclear factorκB (NF-κB) protein in ischemic penumbra after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (CIR) injury. Methods A total of 36 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group (n=12), model group (n=12) and EA group (n=12). The later two groups were occluded their right middle cerebral arteries for two hours and reperfused. The EA group was pretreated with EA at Baihui (GV20) for two weeks before modeling. They were assessed with modified Neurological Severity Scores (mNSS), the injury in ischemic brain was detected with HE staining, and the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB protein in ischemic penumbra were detected with Western blotting, 24 hours after reperfusion. Results The score of mNSS decreased (P<0.05), the injury of brain tissue ameliorated, and the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB decreased in ischemic penumbra (P<0.05) in EA group compared with those in the model group. Conclu-sion EA pretreatment can reduce the injury and improve the neurological function in rats after CIR by down-regulating the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB protein in ischemic penumbra.

Objective To observe the effect of bandage contact lens on cornea epithelial healing after Epi-LASIK,and to evaluate the efficacy and safety.Methods Prospective case-control study.The 92 cases(181 eyes) performing Epi-LASIK were devided into observation group and control group.The 46 cases(91 eyes) of the control group were covered with routine nursing and the other 46 cases (90 eyes) of the observation group were served with bandage contact lens after Epi-LASIK.The symptoms and signs,time of corneal epithelial recovery,visual acuity and pain of postoperation of the two groups were examined within one week.Results After Epi-LASIK treatment,there was no significant difference in visual acuity between the two groups(P ＞ 0.05).At the 1 st,3rd,and 7th day after Epi-LASIK treatment,the ache grading results of the observation group were (2.53 ± 0.62),(1.39 ± 0.71),(0.07-± 0.25);and the ache grading results of control group were (3.22 ± 0.79),(1.74 ± 0.49),(0.26 ± 0.49).Pain scores of observation group were significantly lighter than that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).After Epi-LASIK treatment,the average time of corneal wound healing in the observation group and control group were (2.80 ±0.86) days and (4.07 ±0.68) days respectively.The average time of postoperative corneal wound healing in the observation group was shorter than control group(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The application of bandage contact lens on cornea epithelial healing after Epi-LASIK treatment can reduce the pain of patients and promote the recovery of cornea in myopia patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship between Tacrolimus blood concentration and effectiveness after renal transplantation and to find factors affecting Tacrolimus blood concentration METHODS:Steady-state trough concentrations of Tacrolimus were collected from 80 renal transplantation patients RESULTS:The effective blood concentration of Tacrolimus was associated with course of treatment CONCLUSIONS:The therapeutic concentration of Tacrolimus was between 12ng/ml and 15ng/ml during the first 2 weeks after renal transplantation,then should be 8ng/ml～15ng/ml
