Objective To explore the significance of transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of cervical carcinoma. Methods 45 patients undergoing surgery for cervical carcinoma were enrolled. Transvaginal color Doppler flow imaging was performed preoperatively to detect the arterial blood flow signals within the tumors and the lowest resistance index (RI) value was recorded for analysis. Results Significant difference RI values were noted in cervical carcinoma group compared with contrast group (P <0.001). RI were associated with tumor diameter, stage status, pathologic grade and pelvic lymph node metastasis of cervical carcinoma(P < 0.05). There were no relations between RI and patients's age and pathologic type (P >0.05). Conclusion The angiogenesis character of cervical carcinoma can be showed by RI, and RI had some inherent connections with clinicopathologic parameters of cervical carcinoma. Transvaginal color doppler ultrasound could accurately predict angiogenesis of cervical carcinoma preoperatively and be of importance in the diagnosis of cervical carcinoma. It could provide standard in prognosis evaluation.

Objective To assess applicability of the Rehabilitation Nursing Activity of Daily Living (RNADL) scale in the rehabilitation training in stroke patients. Methods The abilities of daily life (ALD) in 68 stroke patients were evaluated with the RNADL scale on admission, 1 month after treatment and at discharge. All the patients were treated with the individualized protocol. Results ALDs were improved significantly in all the subjects, the average RNADL score was improved from 37.73?3.61 on admission to 81.79?18.69 at discharge (P

Objective:To discuss the effect of pharmacist intervention on the use of antimicrobial agents in the clinical pathway of community-acquired pneumonia ( CAP) in our hospital to standardize the rational medication and promote the rational use of antimicro-bial agents. Methods:Totally 100 bacterial CAP patients in 2013 ( before the intervention) and 2014 ( after the intervention) in the pneumology department were studied. The antibacterial drug cost, total hospitalization cost, use intensity of antimicrobial drugs, hospi-talization time, therapeutic effects and so on in the two groups were observed during the treatment. Results: There were significant differences between the two groups in antibacterial drug cost, total hospitalization cost, use intensity of antimicrobial drugs, hospitaliza-tion time and so on, whereas there was no significant difference in the curative effect. Conclusion:After the pharmacist intervention, the application of antibiotics is more rational, the antibiotics use density and per capita cost are reduced, the hospitalization day is shortened and the value of pharmacists is also improved.

Objective To investigate influence factors on neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and find a preventive way against the said disorder. Methods A retrospective study was conducted of 63 cases NEC (observation group) and 70 cases non-NEC (control group) admitted to the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) of two hospitals from January 2010 to May 2014. The cases were grouped in 29 factors. The individual factors of 28 out of the 29 factors were analy-sised with SAS 9.1 statistical software, and the screened important factors were investigated by logistic regression. Re-sults The ratios of 4 factors, application of prenatal corticosteroids, breast feeding prior to the ailment, oral probiotics and hyperbilirubinemia in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, while the ratios of 14 factors were higher than those in the control group, premature rupture of membrane, asphyxia, respiratory distress syndrome, respiratory failure, umbilical venous catheters, oxygen uptake, sepsis, septic shock, disseminated intravascular coagula-tion (DIC), congenital heart disease, scleredema, hyponatremia, hypocalcaemia and transfusion. The differences of fac-tors mentioned were of statistic significance (P<0.05), while the differences of other factors were not statistically signifi-cant between the two groups (P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that breast feeding, oral probiotics and hy-perbilirubinemia were protective factors against NEC; while sepsis, congenital heart disease and transfusion were major factors that lead to NEC. Conclusion NEC resulted from a combination of multiple factors, with sepsis, congenital heart disease and transfusion as the leading ones. Breast feeding, oral probiotics, and non-excessive curing against hyper-bilirubinemia will help reduce the incidence of NEC.
