Objective To explore the effects of different time spans for off-bed activities on postoperative rehabiliatioin of patients with liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 42 patients having undergone allogeneic liver transplantation during Jan. 2014 to Oct. 2015 were assigned as the observation group. Another 44 patitents during the same period , matched to those in the observation group in terms of general data , were assigned as the control group . The clinical data of two groupos were reviewed to make comparisons in terms of the time for anus exhaust , the time spans for gastric tube and urinary catheter indwelling , abdominal cavity effusion and hemorrhage and pulmonary infection 3 days after operation. Result The time for anus exhaust and the time spans for gastric tube and urinary catheter indwelling in the observation group were all significantly shorter than the control gorup (P<0.05), but there were insignifiant differences between the groups in abdominal cavity effusion and hemorrhage and pulmonary infection. Conclusion Off-bed activities 3 days after operation is safe and feasible for the patients having undergone allogeneic liver transplantation. It can promote their process of rehabilitation.

Objective To investigate the nutritional risks in hospitalized patients with liver diseases and work out nursing countermeasures.Methods Forty patients with liver cirrhosis, 40 patients with primary liver cancer and another 40 revisiting after liver transplantation involved in the investigation with a self-designed general information questionnaire and the nutritional risk screening 2002. The three groups were compared in terms of nutritional risks.Results Among the total 120 patients,38.3%(46/120)of them took the nutritional risk and even 12.5%(15/120)had the risk of undernourishment.The risk in the patients with liver cirrhosis was higher than that in the other two groups(χ2=9.899 and 11.4299 and P=0.002 and 0.001,respectively).Conclusions The nursing staffs should pay attention to the nutritional status of patients with liver diseases, especially the patients with liver cirrhosis.It is necessary to take effective measures in order to improve the nutritional status of the patients to reduce the nutritional risks.

Due to the insufficient supply of embryonated chicken eggs,the preparation of large quantities of inactivated influenza vaccines will require an alternative virus culture system after the emergence or reemergence of a pandemic influenza virus.The Vero cell is one of the ideal options since it was used for producing many kinds of human vaccines.However,most of the influenza viruses can not grow well in Vero cells.To develop a new influenza vaccine with Vero cells as a substrate,the virus needs to adapt to this cell substrate to maintain high growth characteristics.By serial passages in Vero cells,the B/Yunnan/2/2005va(B)strain was successfully adapted to Vero cells,with the hemagglutination titer(HAT)of the virus reaching 1:512.The high growth characteristic of this strain is stable up to 21 passages.The strain was identified by hemagglutination inhibition (HAI)test and sequencing respectively;the HA;gene sequence of the virus was cloned and analyzed.The screening and establishment of high growth B virus provides an important tool for influenza vaccine production in Vero cells.
