Objective:To understand the relationship between psychiatric nurses' communication ability, personality characteristics and conflict management patterns, and to provide a basis for training psychiatric nurses' conflict management ability courses.Methods:A convenient sampling method was used to investigate and investigate 208 nurses in the first-line clinical hospitals of a third-class psychiatric hospital, used the nurses′ clinical communication ability scale, the nurse′s interpersonal conflict management morphology scale, and the simplified version of the Chinese Big Five Personality Questionnaire.Results:Integration dimension (18.67±2.58) points, concession dimension (12.93±2.43) points, escape dimension (14.05±2.02) points, dominance dimension (14.49±3.06) points, and integration dimension and gender ( t value was -2.57, P=0.01)), education ( F value was 3.76, P=0.02), technical title ( F value was 3.03, P=0.02), position ( t value was 2.08, P=0.03), whether to participate in nurse-patient communication training ( t value was 2.54, P=0.02). Nurses with pleasant personality could better deal with interpersonal conflict ( r=0.361, P<0.01), and the nurse′s personality had a direct effect on the form of interpersonal conflict ( P=0.036, 95% CI 0.107-0.422), the nurse′s communication ability plays a part of indirect effect ( P=0.031, 95% CI 0.001-0.063). Conclusion:The form of interpersonal conflict management of psychiatric nurses was closely related to communication ability and personality characteristics. Nursing managers could carry out targeted training to improve the conflict management ability of nursing staff.

Objective To explore the factors affecting urinary arsenic methylated metabolites in population exposed to elevated arsenic through drinking water.Methods Residents,including 73 males and 72 females,in a endemic village located in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region where the concentration of arsenic in drinking water was 0.167 mg/L,were included in the study; moming urine samples were collected; individual height and weight were measured which could be used to calculate body mass index(BM庆) ; and smoking and drinking habit was investigated by a questionnaire survey.Urinary concentrations of inorganic arsenic (iAs),monomethylarsenic acid(MMA) and dimethylarsenic acid(DMA) were determined using high performance liquid chromatography hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry (HPLC-HG-AFC).Total arsenic (T-As) level was calculated by the sum of iAs,MMA and DMA; iAs％,MMA％ and DMA％ was calculated based on iAs/T-As,MMA/T-As and DMA/T-As.One methylation ratio(PMI) and dimethyl rate(SMI) were calculated by MMA/iAs and DMA/MMA.Results SMI level of female was significantly higher than that of male [median (M) =4.18,3.38,x2 =11.219,P ＜ 0.05] ; MMA％ of female was significantly lower than that of male(M =15.1 9,18.06,x2 =9.272,P ＜ 0.05) ; DMA％ of female was significantly higher than that of male (M =65.61,59.47,x2 =11.728,P ＜ 0.05).Various forms of arsenic indexes were not affected by smoking,alcohol consumption and BMI(P ＞ 0.05).BMI was negatively correlated with MMA％,with correlation coefficient (r)-0.17 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Under the same condition of arsenic exposure,arsenic methylation capacity of women is higher than that of men.Lower BMI is significantly associated with higher methylation capability of arsenic,but this correlation may be affected by other confounding factors.

Objective: To investigate the influencing factors of nosocomial infections among patients undergoing radiotherapy, so as to provide insights into nosocomial infection control among radiotherapy patients. Methods: The malignant tumor patients receiving radiotherapy in Yiwu Central Hospital from 2019 to 2020 were selected. Their demographic features, radiotherapy and nosocomial infections were collected through the eletronic medical records. The factors affecting nosocomial infections were identified among radiotherapy patients using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 553 malignant tumor patients receiving radiotherapy were enrolled, including 268 men ( 48.46% ) and with a mean age of ( 60.31±13.66 ) years. The mean duration of hospital stay was ( 28.67±14.32 ) days, and the mean radiotherapy cycle was ( 3.63±1.89 ) weeks. A total of 46 patients were detected with nosocomial infections, with prevalence of 8.32%. The top three sites with the highest prevalence of nosocomial infections included the lower respiratory tract ( 14 cases, 30.43% ), oral cavity ( 10 cases, 21.74 ) and urinary tract ( 8 cases, 17.39% ), and 42 bacterial strains were isolated, with Gram-negative bacteria as the predominant strains ( 25 strains, 59.52% ). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that radiotherapy cycle of 4 weeks and longer ( OR=3.857, 95%CI: 1.896-7.846 ), radiotherapy exposure ( OR=3.254, 95%CI: 1.561-6.783 ), arteriovenous catheterization ( OR=2.165, 95%CI: 1.144-4.098 ), urinary tract intubation ( OR=6.028, 95%CI: 1.841-19.734 ) and poor nutritional status ( OR=3.933, 95%CI: 1.493-10.360 ) were associated with nosocomial infections among radiotherapy patients. Conclusion Radiotherapy cycle, exposure to radiotherapy, arteriovenous catheterization, urinary tract intubation and poor nutritional status are factors affecting nosocomial infections among radiotherapy patients.

Objective To evaluate prognostic value of pentraxin3 (PTX3) content combining with extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) in patients with sepsis.Methods A retrospective analysis of complete clinical data of septic patients admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2013 to February 2014 was conducted.These patients were divided into two groups,survival group and death group,according to the outcome on the 28th day.Pulse index continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) was used to record the levels of EVLWI on the 1st,2nd and 3rd day of intensive care unit (ICU) admission.The plasma level of PTX3 was measured simultaneously by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).At the same time,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) were calculated.Correlation analysis between plasma PTX3 and EVLWI values was performed,receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn,and the prognostic value of each parameter was assessed finally.Results A total of 74 septic patients were enrolled,with 41 cases in the survival group and 33 cases in the non-survival group.Blood lactate,APACHE Ⅱ,SOFA scores in the non-survival group were significantly higher than those of the survival group at ICU admission,and the length of ICU stay was significantly shorter than that of the survival group,while differences of the other clinical characteristics between two groups were not statistically significant.The plasma PTX3 level gradually declined with time in both groups,and plasma PTX3 at 1,2,3 days after ICU admission in non-survival group were significantly higher than those in survival group [PTX3 (μg/L) at 1 day:46.3± 10.5 vs.19.4±6.5,t =-13.486,P =0.000; 2 days:34.8± 10.7 vs.17.7±8.4,t =-8.284,P =0.000; 3 days:23.9± 11.2 vs.15.6 ± 7.9,t =-5.036,P =0.000].EVLWI gradually declined in survival group,but increased in death group.EVLWI at 1,2,3 days after ICU admission in non-survival group were significantly higher than those in survival group [EVLWI (mL/kg) at 1 day:12.12 ± 4.31 vs.10.02 ± 2.87,t =-2.502,P =0.023; 2 days:13.67 ± 4.95 vs.9.08 ± 2.89,t =-5.188,P =0.000; 3 days:14.51±5.06 vs.8.09±2.50,t =-7.126,P =0.000].PTX3 at 1,2,3 days after ICU admission showed a significant positive correlation with EVLWI (r1 =0.747,r2 =0.719,r3 =0.705,all P =0.000).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC (AUC) of PTX3 at 1 day was 0.845 ± 0.045,at the cut-off point of 23.0 μg/L,PTX3 showed a sensitivity of 84.8％,a specificity of 74.1％,a negative predictive value of 85.81％,and a positive predictive value of 72.42％.AUC of EVLWI at 3 days was 0.838 ± 0.048,at the cut-off point of 10.5 mL/kg,EVLWI showed a sensitivity of 83.9％,a specificity of 82.9％,a negative predictive value of 86.45％,and a positive predictive value of 79.79％.Their sensitivities and specificities were found to be better than APACHE Ⅱ,SOFA score.AUC of PTX3 combined with EVLWI at 1 day was 0.886 ± 0.038.On the 1st day after ICU admission,with combination of the two indicators,cut-off point was found to be 0.312,a sensitivity of 86.8％,a specificity of 85.4％,a negative predictive value of 88.93％,and a positive predictive value of 82.72％.On the 3rd day after ICU admission,AUC of PTX3 combined with EVLWI was 0.856 ± 0.046,and showed a cut-off of 0.471 for the prognosis of sepsis,a sensitivity of 85.8％,a specificity of 85.4％,a negative predictive value of 87.97％,and a positive predictive value of 82.50％.Compared with other single index,a combination of above mentioned two indexes showed a better sensitivity and specificity.Conclusions PTX3 can serve as a novel prognostic indicator at early stage in septic patients.Combined with EVLWI,it shows important value in predicting prognosis of septic patients,and it also provides guidance in treatment of high-risk patients.

Objective To investigate MR findings and analysis of misdiagnosis of atypical invasive pituitary adenoma.Methods The MR findings of twenty cases of atypical invasive pituity adenomas confirmed by pathology were reviewed ,which were misdiag-nosed as chordomas or meningiomas.Results All the twenty cases showed iso-or slightly hypo-signal on T1 WI,iso-or slightly hy-per-signal on T2 WI;Enhanced scan displayed heterogeneous enhancement.The dynamic enhancement curve showed rapid enhance-ment phase.The bilateral cavernous sinuswere infringed in nine cases,in which the pituity and pituity stalk were not well seen. Among the twenty cases,twelve cases with suprasellar and anterior cranial fossa extension were misdiagnosed as meningiomas;eight cases with clival destruction were misdiagnosed as chordomas.Conclusion The MR features of atypical invasive pituity adenomas are various.In order to avoid misdiagnosis,a comprehensive analysis should be based on a variety of signs.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of sequential add-on of pegylated interferon α-2a (PEGIFN-α-2a) for 48 weeks in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with low serum hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) titer after long term adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) monotherapy.Methods This was a randomized,open and prospective clinical trial.Patients who had been treated with ADV for 72 to 144 weeks,with undetectable serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level,low HBeAg titer (5 S/CO＜ HBeAg＜50 S/CO) and serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) ＜5000 IU/mL were included.The patients were categorized into ADV monotherapy group and ADV plus PEGIFN-a-2a combination therapy group by random number table.Patients in ADV group continued ADV monotherapy and patients in combination therapy group added PEGIFN-α-2a to ADV for 48 weeks.After the treatment,efficacy of the two therapies were assessed by comparing the reduction of serum HBeAg reduction,HBeAg loss rate,HBeAg seroconversion rate,and reduction of intrahepatic HBV DNA and HBV covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA).Pre-and post-treatment results were compared by paired samples t test.Comparison between groups was performed using indepedent samples t test.Comparison of rates between groups was performed using x2 test.Results The trial enrolled 55 CHB patients,and there were 27 patients in ADV monotherapy group,28 patients in combination therapy group.Baseline characteristics including age distribution,sex ratio,alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST),total bilirubin (TBil),serum HBeAg and HBsAg,hepatic HBV DNA and HBV cccDNA were all comparable (all P＞0.05).Twenty-five patients in ADV monotherapy group and 26 patients in combination therapy group completed 48 weeks treatment.HBeAg loss rates and seroconversion rates of combination therapy group were higher than those of ADV monotherapy group (x2 =5.38 and 4.69,respectively,both P＜0.05).HBeAg titers of both groups were significantly lower than those of baseline (t=8.43 and 8.50,respectively,both P＜0.05).The HBeAg titer of combination therapy group was lower than that of monotherapy group (t=5.60,P＜ 0.01).HBV DNA and HBV cccDNA in liver tissue of combination therapy group was (6.934±0.52) lg IU/mg and (5.63±0.54) lg IU/mg post-treatment,respectively,which were both lower than baseline (t＝7.12.6.67,respectively,both P＜0.01).HBV DNA in liver tissue of monotherapy group was (7.09＝0.43) lg IU/mg post-treatment,which was lower than baseline (t=2.67,P=0.02).After treatment,HBV cccDNA in liver tissue of combination therapy group was lower than that of monotherapy group (t =2.87,P=0.00).Conclusions Compared with ADV monotherapy,sequential add-on of PEGIFN-a-2a in combination with ADV can achieve higher serum HBeAg loss rate and seroconversion rate and facilitate the clearance of hepatic HBV DNA and HBV cccDNA in CHB patients with low HBeAg titer after long-term ADV monotherapy.

Objeetive To analyze the causes and to explore prevention and management of bile leakage after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with choledochoscopy followed by primary suturing of choledochal incision.Methods The clinical data of 52 patients with bile leakage after laparoscopic common bile duct exploration choledochoscopy and primary suturing of choledochal incision carried out for choledocholithiasis between June 2011 to June 2013 were retrospectively studied.Results All the 52 patients successfully underwent the laparoscopic surgery and left hospital.The operation time was (101 ± 26) minutes (range 55～ 145 minutes).The intraoperative blood loss was (36±28) ml (range 10～ 100 ml).All the patients were ambulatory after the first postoperative day.The recovery time of postoperative gastrointestinal function was (49.8 ± 12.5) hours (range 37 ～ 74 h).The total hospitalization time was (10.8 ± 2.5) days (range 7 ～ 15 days).The average hospitalization days after surgery was (5.7 ± 1.7) days.The average hospitalization cost was (24 827 ± 3 776) yuan.There were two patients who developed intraoperative bile leakage which was treated with further suturing.Five patients developed postoperative bile leakage and they were cured after unobstructed drainage for 5 days through conservative treatment.After a follow-up of 1 ～ 2years,there was no recurrent lithiasis.The stone clearance rate was 100％.There was no bile duct stricture or other complications.Conclusion In expert hands and with proper selection of patients,laparoscopic common bile duct exploration,choledochoscopy and primary suturing of choledochal incision were safe,effective and feasible for choledocholithiasis.
