Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of ciprofloxacin (Cipro) conjugated with 11 poly-arginine peptide (R11) on rabbit model with bacterial cystitis (BC). Methods 50 New Zealand rabbits of 4-month old were chosen to establish the models and evenly divided into 5 groups randomly : Group A: normal control; Group B: intravesical instillation (II) of R11; Group C: II of Cipro; Group D: II of R11-Cipro; Group E: intravenous injection of Cipro. Several parameters were observed which included: urinary frequency, positive rate of urine culture, histopathological analysis of cystitis stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Results Severe inflammatory responses and massive infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed after the models were established. R11-Cipro group was better than intravenous injection of Cipro group in treating cystitis (P < 0.05). R11-Cipro group was better than the other four groups in urinary frequency and urine culture. Conclusions Intravesical instillation of R11-Cipro demonstrated significant therapeutic effect on bacterial cystitis. R11 , as an efficient vector, could deliver specific antibiotics to bladder mucosa precisely and function well locally.

Objective To explore the effect of continuing nursing on the rehabilitation of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) after transurethral resection of prostate (TURP).Methods Toally 128 BPH patients after TURP in our hospital from May 2015 to May 2016 were evenly divided into control group and observation group by random digit table.The patients in the control group were normally guided at discharge and those in the observation group the continuing nursing was done by telephone,WeChat,QQ or family visits for 6 weeks after discharge besides normal guidance.The two groups were compared in terms of self-care ability,treatment compliance,complications and quality of life.Results After the intervention,the scores on health knowledge,self-care ability,self-care responsibility,self-care concept,self-care skills dimension of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group.The treatment compliance was significantly higher than that of the control group and the incidences of complications,including pain,hematuria,urinary intontinerce and retentron and infection,constipation were significantly lower than those of the control group.The scores on quality of life,physical function,role function,cognitive function,emotional function and social function score were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05).Conclusion The continuing nursing after surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia patients can be effective in the improvements of patient's self-care ability,establishment of healthy life behavior,reduction of complications,promotion of their rehabilitation and ultimately the improvement of their quality of life.
