Objective To investigate the causes of hearing loss for people over 60 years old. Methods People more than 60 years old in 14 provinces, 22 districts were investigated with a self-designed questionnaire, and a hearing test was also done for every subject. Results Among all the subjects, the etiological factors of hearing loss were otitis media (10.5%), hereditary deafness (2.9%), noise-induced hearing loss (3%), ototoxic deafness (6.4%), traumatic deafness (2%), presbycusis (33.8%), sudden deafness (1%) and other reasons (36.2%), respec-tively, with 11.3%unknown. Conclusion Presbycusis is the main reason of hearing loss for old people, and otitis media is the second. The cause of hearing loss is different with ages, districts, and whether in rural areas.

This report analyzes the status of schistosomiasis epidemic,surveillance and challenges in transmission?interrupt?ed areas of Jiangxi Province. There are 24 schistosomiasis transmission interrupted counties(cities,districts)among 39 endem?ic counties(cities,districts). Among the 24 counties,there are 6 counties with Oncomelania hupensis snails and 461 villages endemic,with 1.29 million residents. Since 2009,there have not been acute and chronic cases of schistosomiasis and all the pa?tients are historical advanced schistosomiasis cases. The area with snail habitats is 37.02 hm2. Since 2015,the schistosomiasis surveillance has covered the entire transmission interrupted areas. However,there are still many challenges,such as endemic in?stability,weak surveillance capacity,lack of surveillance awareness and other issues. Towards the schistosomiasis elimination, the surveillance should be based on the snail monitoring mainly,supplemented by the mobile population monitoring,and in ad?dition,the capacity building,standardized report of endemic,and snail habitat reform should also be further strengthened.

Objective To explore the effects of patient participation-based dietary intervention on nutritional status for patients with gastrectomy.Methods Fifty-two patients with gastrectomy were randomly assigned to the intervention group(n=26) and the control group(n=26).All patients were given general dietary guidance,and patients in the intervention group were provided patient participation-based dietary intervention(PPDI) as well.Height,body weight and body mass index(BMI) were recorded at baseline,2 weeks and 12 weeks after intervention,using PatientGenerated Subjective Global Assessment(PG-SGA),Diet-Related Symptom Scale,Adherence to Dietary Scale and a 3-day food diary.Results There was no obvious change in body weight and BMI before and after 12-week intervention,while outcomes in the control group gradually decreased.For time effect,there was significant difference in PG-SGA between two groups(P＜0.05).For between-group effect,there were significant differences in diet-related symptoms(P＜0.05),dietary intake(P＜0.05) and adherence to dietary(P＜0.05) between two groups.Conclusion Patient participation-based dietary intervention can improve nutritional status for patients with gastrectomy.

Objective To understand the characteristic of value orientation during occupational choice and occupational development of nursing students with different background. Methods The study was non-experimental and descriptive with questionnaires. Results The correlation coefficients on 15 work value scales in different background students ranged from 0.561 to 0.940, P value ranged from 0.01 to 0.05. And the coefficients were significant. But there were significant differences on some scales in 15 work value of students who were different in grade, sex, family or areas and so on. Conclusions Nursing stu-dents with different background place emphasis on the same work value and ignore the same others because of the same social-cultural background. But there are some differences in recognition degree of some work val-ue in nursing students with different background.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of fire needling plus moxibustion in treating prurigo nodularis. Methods Ninety patients with prurigo nodularis were randomly allocated to treatment and control groups, 45 cases. The treatment group received fire needling plus moxibustion and the control group, external application of halometasone ointment. Skin lesions and pruritus were scored in the two groups before and after treatment. The clinical therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups. Results There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in the skin lesion score and the pruritus score in the two groups (P<0.01,P<0.05). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in the skin lesion score and the pruritus score between the treatment and control groups (P<0.01). The total efficacy rate was 81.8% in the treatment group and 60.5% in the control group; there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05).Conclusion Fire needling plus moxibustion is an effective way to treat prurigo nodularis.

Objective To study the risk factors for pulmonary fungal infection associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),and evaluate the efficacy and safety of itraconazole for treatment of pulmonary fungal infection associated COPD.Methods A retrospective analysis were conducted on clinical data of 42 COPD patients who were confirmed pulmonary fungal infection in a respiratory disease department from September 1 ,2007 to May 31 ,2012,and 53 COPD patients who had no pulmonary fungal infection were as control.Results Of 42 patients with COPD and pulmonary fungal infection,8 were confirmed by histopathological examination,34 were confirmed by clinical diagnosis;6 were acute cases,36 were chronic cases;28 were positive for fungal detection,6 of whom were detected Candida albicans ,13 were detected Aspergillus ,7 were detected unclassified fungi,and 2 had mixed fungal infection.Univariate analysis showed that underlying diseases,long-term use of broad-spectrum antimicrobi-als,long-term use of glucocorticoid,hypoproteinemia,invasive procedure,invasive mechanical ventilation,diabetes mellitus,history of invasive fungal infection were major risk factors for pulmonary fungal infection associated with COPD.After patients were treated by itraconazole,the improvement rate of clinical symptoms was 66.67%,fungal eradication rate was 60.71 %,total effective rate was 64.29%.Of 28 cases with positive fungal detection,the im-provement rate of clinical symptoms,fungal eradication rate,and total effective rate was 71 .43%(n=20),60.71 %(n=17),and 67.86%(n=19)respectively.Itraconazole had good therapeutic efficacy on acute and chronic pulmo-nary fungal infection associated with COPD.Adverse drug reaction rate was 23.81 %,most were mild and reversi-ble,and had no obvious impact on the treatment.Conclusion Itraconazole has positive clinical efficacy on treating pulmonary fungal infection associated with COPD,it is highly safe.

Objective:To investigate the value of preoperative slight decline of the pulmonary function in predicting postoperative cardiopulmonary complications (PCC) after left total pneumonectomy of lung cancer patients to guide the clinical surgery of lung can-cer. Methods:Clinical data of 200 lung cancer patients after left total pneumonectomy were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into two groups (PCC and non-PCC) based on the incidence of postoperative cardiopulmonary complications within 1 month after the cancer resection. The relationship between the preoperative slight or moderate to severe reduction of pulmonary func-tion and postoperative complications was explored. The correlation between the preoperative slight decline of the pulmonary function index and PCC was also analyzed. Results:Among the 200 patients, 35, 45, and 120 demonstrated normal, slightly, and moderately to severely reduced pulmonary functions, and 28.6%, 53.3%, and 62.5% showed PCC within 1 month after the surgical resection (χ2=12.611, P=0.002). Significant differences in the slightly reduced pulmonary function parameters MVV% (70% ≤ MVV<80%) and FEV1%(70%≤FEV 1%<80%) were observed between those without and with complications (P=0.028 and 0.014). Further analysis indicated no significant difference between the patients with preoperative slight reduction of FEV1%only or of MVV%only (P>0.05). However, statistically significant differences were observed when both FEV1%and MVV%were slightly reduced (χ2=6.598, P=0.010). Conclusion:The preoperative slight reduction values of FEV1%and MVV%were the risk factors in predicting PCC after left pneumo-nectomy in lung cancer patients. The slightly reduced FEV1%or MVV%alone cannot influence PCC. Both slightly reduced FEV1%and MVV%were the risk factors of PCC. Perioperative management should be strengthened for these patients to lower the incidence of PCC.
