Objective To investigate the effect of rapid rehabilitation nursing mode on postoperative complications in elderly patients with appendicitis. Methods Forty-eight elderly patients with appendicitis underwent surgery from July 2013 to June 2014 were set as the control group, and another fifty-three elderly patients from July 2014 to June 2015 as observation group. The patients in the control group were treated with routine care while the patients in the observation group with rapid rehabilitation nursing. Operative complications, gastrointestinal tumor recovery and postoperative hospitalization time were compared within one week after the operations between two groups. Result The rates of constipation, abdominal distention, chills and dysuria in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control and the time of anal first exhaust, defecation and postoperative hospitalization in the observation group were significantly lower or shorter than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion The rapid rehabilitation nursing mode based on evidence can reduce surgery complications in elderly patients, promoter recovery and shorten hospitalization time.

Objective To evaluate the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) technology in the identification of filamentous fungi,and analyze the susceptibility of filamentous fungi to commonly used antibiotics.Methods A total of 100 strains of filamentous fungi were collected and identified rapidly by MALDI-TOF MS.The obtained results were compared with those from microscopic examination.The susceptibility of filamentous fungi was detected by the Etest method.Results Among 100 strains of filamentous fungi identified by MALDI-TOF MS,61 reached to the species level(score≥2.000),36 to the genus level(score between 1.700 and 1.999),and 3 failed to be identified (score < 1.700).There was inconsistent results for one strain of filamentous fungi between MALDI-TOF MS and microscopic examination.The MIC90 of amphotericin B against Epidermophytonfloccosum was 0.19 μg/mL,while that against Aspergillus flavus was above 32 μg/mL.The MIC90 of itraconazole against Trichophyton tonsurans,Microsporum canis and Epidermophytonfloccosum were all below 0.38 μg/mL,while that against Aspergillus niger was above 32 μg/mL.The MIC90 of fluconazol were above 256 μg/mL for most of strains.The MIC90 of voriconazole and caspofungin against Aspergillus fumigatus,Aspergillus flavus,Aspergillus niger,Trichophyton rubrum,Trichophyton tonsurans and Microsporum canis were ≤0.38 μg/mL and ≤ 1 μg/mL,respectively.Conclusion The MALDI-TOF MS technology may be used to identify the filamentous fungi isolated from clinical specimens quickly,accurately and high-throughput.Voriconazole and caspofungin have effective anti-filamentous fungi activity.

Objective To explore the different apoptotic gene expressions and apoptotic signaling transduction of human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells infected by enterovirus 71 (EV71) in different stage.Methods The survival of EV71-infected RD cells was observed by trypan blue staining.The apoptotic morphology and rates of RD cells were surveyed and detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining and flow cytometry,respectively.PCR array was employed to analyze 88 apoptotic gene expressions from EV71-infected RD cells at 8 h and 20 h postinfection (p.i),respectively.Results After RD cells were infected with EV71 (MOI =5) at 8 h p.i,the viability was significantly decreased.Flow cytometry data demonstrated that the apoptotic rates of EV71-infected RD cells had increased to 18.0% and 19.1% at 20 h p.i in early and later stage respectively.RT-PCR array studies revealed significant variations in the expression of apoptotic genes.Among 88 genes,only the expression of IFN-β1 was upregulated 5.22 folds,whereas 47 genes including ACIN1,Akt,Apaf1,caspase and CIDEB were found to be downregulated that were lower than 2 folds at 8 h p.i.However,28 genes including FasL,CD40L,TNF,caspase-10 and caspase-3 were induced more than 2 folds after EV71 infection at 20 h.Conclusion The downregulation of apoptosis-related genes is associated with viral apoptosis-suppressing effect in RD cells in the early stage of EV71 infection.The death receptor signaling pathways including Fas/FasL and TNF/TNFR are activated to induce cell apoptosis in the late stage of EV71 infection.Moreover,host cell can also inhibit apoptosis by regulating signal pathway of CD40/CD40L,NF-κB/RelA and PI3K/Akt activation.

Objective To explore the effect of the modular teaching for nursing students based on WeChat in the comprehensive training before the practice.Methods The undergraduate students of nursing were randomly divided into 5 classes,among which class 1,2,3 as the control group,and class 4,5 as the experimental group.The control group used the traditional ‘Case Teaching Method',taking the group as a unit to practice the clinical nursing skills individually;while the experimental group took the method which integrated individual nursing skills and practical materials with humanistic qualities in clinical cases.They conducted practical training by dividing the learning module with the ‘representative patients',using WeChat as the learning and exchange platform andbuilding modular training model.After the training,the results were evaluated by the score sheet for integrated skills,a critical-thinking scale and the learning model questionnaire.The data was analyzed by T-Test and Chi-Square inspection.Results All of the nursing students were willing to use WeChat for autonomous learning.The scores of the nursing students in the experimental group were higher than those in control group in the abilities of judgement,communication,operation and introspection.The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).In addition to the cognitive maturity,the scores of experimental group were higher than those in control group in the searching for truth,opening mind,abilities of analysis and integration and self-confidence in critical thinking and desire for knowledge,The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);Also the proportion of experimental group was higher than the control group in students' attitude to study,knowledge acquisition and practical training mode.The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The implementation of nodular teaching mode based on WeChat is beneficial to improve the clinical comprehensive ability of nursing students,and help to train the high quality nursing talents who meet the needs of clinical practice.

Objective:To study the application effect of objective structured clinical examination (OSCE)-based situational simulation case teaching on Nursing Fundamentals practical training. Methods:Using convenient sampling method, two undergraduate nursing classes of Batch 2018 in Hubei University of Chinese Medicine were chosen as the study objects. They were divided into observation group with 45 students and control group with 43 students through ball touching method. The control group used traditional teaching method, on this basis, the observation group used OSCE-based situational simulation case teaching. At the end of the semester, the results of theoretical assessment, operational skills assessment, humanistic care, health education achievements of the two groups of nursing students and students’ evaluation of the new teaching method in the observation group. SPSS 22.0 was used for t test. Results:The sores of theoretical assessment, operational skills and humanistic care assessment in the observation group were (81.01±8.53), (92.69±3.87) and (11.73±1.59), and the corresponding sores in control group were (76.94±9.74), (91.21±2.70) and (10.79±1.36). The nursing students in the observation group had significantly higher scores than the control group in above mentioned aspects ( P<0.05). In the observation group, 45 students (100.0%) believed that this teaching method could stimulate learning interest and comprehensively deal with clinical problems, 43 students (95.6%) thought that this teaching method could improve team cooperation ability, only one person (2.2%) did not agree that this teaching method could help to form critical thinking, and 42 students (93.3%) said that the teaching hours of this teaching method could be appropriately increased. Conclusion:The OSCE-based situational simulation case teaching may effectively improve the teaching quality of the nursing students and mobilize their learning activities.
