Objective To analyze and consider the design for nursing English course through the investigation of demands for nursing English in 6 domestic high-end medical institutions.Methods Firstly,a face-to-face discussion was held with 10 experts in nursing management from above-mentioned institutions,field notes were made and themes were refined afterwards.Then,111 nurses were investigated in the 6 hospitals using purposive sampling method by filling questionnaire.Results In the teaching content,77 kinds of diseases were involved,including 27 most common ones; on the aspect of teaching methods and skills,90.1％ of the nurses recommended situational dialogue,72.1％ in favor of case teaching,92.8％ believed that nursing English course should cultivate students' communication skills; Its teaching emphasis in turn included vocabulary,communication capability,nursing knowledge (89.2％,88.3％,73.0％).Conclusions The objective of nursing English course should focus on cultivating nurse students' applied capability including listening,reading,speaking and written English.The textbook of nursing English should be written based on the characteristics of common diseases in the hospital stressing on nursing knowledge,vocabulary and communication skills.Teaching method of nursing English should consider the situational teaching model in hospital nursing English.

Objective To investigate and analyze cognitive similarities and differences of nurses factors that lead to the tense nurse-patient relationship from both attitudes of nurses and patients. Methods By using the method of questionnaire, 284 nurses and 305 patients were investigated respectively in a top'three hospital of a city. Results There was a significant difference in cognitive scores of nurses factors that lead to the tense nurse- patient relationship (P < 0.01), patients' scores were (3.90±0.47) points which were higher than (3.52±0.35) points of the nurses′. In dimensions of prioritization, both nurses and patients believed that technical ability, professional knowledge and service attitude were the main factors leading to the tense relationship between nurses and patients. While nurses held that communication ability was more important, patients held that the nurse′s own personality was more important. Conclusions There are similarities and differences of attitudes to nurs's factors between nurses and patients regarding tension in nurse- patient relationship. The tense relationship between nurses and patients is affected to a great extent by nurses' professional knowledge, technical ability and service attitude. Managers should objectively evaluate and fully pay attention to cognitive similarities and differences of both sides, strengthen nurses′theoretical knowledge and clinical skills training, improve service attitude, and develop good character,in order to provide high quality nursing service for patients.

Objective To investigate the influence of aspirin and/or clopidogrel treatment on platelet aggregation rate in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients,and discuss the factors related to anti-platelet drug resistance.Methods A total of 160 patients with CHD and received aspirin and/or clopidogrel treatment were enrolled in the Second Xiangya Hospital,Central South University,and were divided into stable coronary heart disease (SCHD) group (n =90) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) group (n =70).Meanwhile,non-coronary heart disease (NCHD) patients who did not receive anti-platelet drug treatment were enrolled as controls (n =50).Clinical data of the subjects were recorded.The maximum platelet aggregation rate induced by arachidonic acid (MAR-AA) and adenosine diphosphate (MAR-ADP) were evaluated with sequential platelet counting method.The factors related to drug resistance were analyzed with Logistic regression analysis.Results Compared to NCHD group,there were lower MAR-AA and MAR-ADP in two groups of CHD (all P ＜ 0.05).In ACS patients,MAR-AA and MAR-ADP are significantly lower (P ＜0.05) in patients who receive the aspirin and clopidogrel.The rate of anti-platelet drug resistance in ACS group was significantly higher than that in SCHD group (20.0％ vs 10.0％,P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that low HDL-C (＜ 1.0 mmol/L) was an independent risk factor related to the anti-platelet drug resistance (OR =4.36,95 ％ CI:1.36-14.02,P =0.025).Conclusions The antiplatelet treatment with aspirin and/or clopidogrel can significantly reduce the platelet reactivity in CHD patients,but some patients still present anti-platelet drug resistance.The combination of aspirin and clopidogrel is better.The rate of drug resistance in ACS patients is high.Low HDL-C might be associated with anti-platelet drug resistance.

Objective To investigate the effects of hospital-community-familycontinuing nursing on the breastfeeding self-efficacy and role adaptation ability of primiparae.Methods One hundred and thirty eight postpartum women were recruited and randomly divided into the intervention group (n=69) and the control group (n=69). All patients received conventional continuing nursing, and patients in the intervention group also received hospital-community-family continuing nursing intervention. The maternal self-efficacy and role adapta-tion ability of patients between two groups before and after intervention were evaluated.Results After nursing intervention, the scores of breastfeeding self-efficacy (62.52±8.39) in the intervention group which were higher than that in the control group (45.18±8.27) (t=12.23,P<0.01). The scores of role adaptation in the intervention group was higher than the control group (t=10.04,P<0.01).Conclusions The hospital-community-family continuing nursing intervention mode can effectively improve the breastfeeding behavior of primiparae, and improve the success rate of breastfeeding.

Objective To study the levels of antibodies against bordetella pertussis among pregnant women and neonates in Beijing. Method From December 2016 to March 2017, pregnant women and their newborns from three women and children′s hospitals in Beijing were enrolled in this study. 3 ml of venous blood from the mothers and 3 ml of umbilical cord blood from neonates were drawn.Pertussis bacillus IgG antibody (PER-IgG) and pertussis toxin IgG antibody (PT-IgG) were tested using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. χ2 test was used to compare the positive rate of pertussis IgG antibodies in maternal and cord blood in the three hospitals. Correlational analyses of the antibodies levels in each hospital were conducted. The demographic characteristics, history of cough during pregnancy and history of DTaP vaccination of the mothers were collected via questionnaires. Result A total of 612 pairs of venous blood and cord blood samples were collected, including 4 mothers delivered twins and 616 cases of cord blood sample were collected. No history of pertussis were found in the 612 mothers. Among the 616 cases of umbilical cord blood, positive rate of PER-IgG was 13.3％ (82/616), positive rate of PT-IgG was 0.5％ (3/616). Among 612 cases of venous blood from the mothers, positive rate of PER-IgG was 7.7％ (47/612), positive rate of PT-IgG was 0.3％ (2/612). Positive rates of PER-IgG and PT-IgG in the mothers′ venous blood were not correlated with their residences (P=0.676 and 0.544). Positive rates of PER-IgG (r=0.842, P<0.001) and PT-IgG (r=0.619, P<0.001) in the mothers′ blood were positively correlated with the positive rate in umbilical cord blood. Conclusion This study shows that the positive rate of PER-IgG is very low in the maternal and umbilical cord blood in Beijing. Positive correlations of PER-IgG and PT-IgG between mother and umbilical cord blood were existed. Most mothers and their newborns do not have enough protection against pertussis.

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of neural development-related genes LIS1and TSNAX with bipolar disorder in a Chinese Han population.

METHODSThree hundred and eight five patients (including 188 males and 197 females) from Guangzhou Brain Hospital with bipolar disorder meeting the Diagnostic and Statistic Manual of Bipolar Disorder (BDI) (Fourth Edition) criteria and 475 healthy controls from the local community were recruited. Ten single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the LIS1 and TSNAX genes were genotyped by GoldenGate genotyping assay on an Illumina Beadstation 500 machine. Association analyses of SNPs and haplotypes were performed with Plink 1.07 software.

RESULTSAnalysis of the total sample has failed to find any association of SNP or haplotype of the two genes with BDI (P> 0.05). When patients were divided into subgroups with or without psychotic symptom, no significant association of the two genes was found with psychotic BDI or non-psychotic BDI (P> 0.05). No significant association was found between any SNP and haplotype of two genes and female BDI or male BDI, nor were significant association found between age of onset and LIS1 and TSNAX gene polymorphisms.

CONCLUSIONOur results indicated that LIS1 and TSNAX genes are not associated with susceptibility to bipolar I disorder in Chinese Han population.

BACKGROUND:Prevention of fractures after stroke is very important,and there are currently no models to predict the occurrence of hip fractures after stroke. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the risk factors leading to hip fracture in stroke patients and to establish a risk prediction model to visualize this risk. METHODS:A total of 439 stroke patients were selected from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from June 2014 to June 2017,including 107 males and 332 females,with a mean age of(71.38±9.74)years.They were divided into fracture group(n=35)and non-fracture group(n=404)according to the presence or absence of hip fracture.Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the risk factors for hip fracture after stroke.The data were randomly divided into training set(70%)and test set(30%).Nomogram predicting the risk of hip fracture occurrence was created based on the results of the multifactor analysis,and performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve,calibration curves,and decision curve analysis.A web calculator was created to facilitate a more convenient interactive experience for clinicians. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Univariate analysis showed significant differences between the two groups in the number of falls,smoking,hypertension,glucocorticoids,number of strokes,Mini-Mental State Examination,visual acuity level,National Institute of Health Stroke Scale,Berg Balance Scale,and Stop Walking When Talking scale scores(P<0.05).(2)Multivariate analysis showed that number of falls[OR=17.104,95%CI(3.727-78.489),P=0.000],National Institute of Health Stroke Scale[OR=1.565,95%CI(1.193-2.052),P=0.001],Stop Walking When Talking[OR=12.080,95%CI(2.398-60.851),P=0.003]were independent risk factors positively associated with new hip fractures.Bone mineral density[OR=0.155,95%CI(0.044-0.546),P=0.012]and Berg Balance Scale[OR=0.840,95%CI(0.739-0.954),P=0.007]were negatively associated with new hip fractures after stroke.(3)The AUC values of nomogram were 0.956 and 0.907 in the training and test sets,respectively,and the calibration curves showed a high agreement between predicted and actual status with an area under the decision curve of 0.038 and 0.030,respectively.(4)These findings conclude that the number of falls,low bone mineral density,low Berg Balance Scale score,high National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score,and positive Stop Walking When Talking are risk factors for hip fracture after stroke.Based on this,a nomogram with high accuracy was developed and a web calculator(https://stroke.shinyapps.io/DynNomapp/)was created.

Objective To investigate the effects of different ratios of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids(ω-3 PUFA)on depression and cognitive impairment in patients with major depression.Methods A randomized,double-blinded controlled trial was used to randomly assign patients with depression to a cognitive improvement group,a depression improvement group,and a placebo group.The cognitive improvement group took 1388 mg of docosahexaenoic acid(DHA)and 692 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid(EPA)every day and the depression improvement group took 1248 mg of EPA and 832 mg of DHA every day.The placebo group took the same dose of soybean oil for 12 weeks,during which psychiatric medication was maintained.The 24-item Hamilton depression scale(HAMD-24)was used to evaluate depressive symptoms,and the standardized MATRICS consensus cognitive battery(MCCB)was used to evaluate cognitive function after 6 weeks and 12 weeks,respectively.Results The study recruited a total of 46 patients with depression including 22 in the cognitive improvement group,12 in the depression improvement group,and 12 in the placebo group.After 6 weeks of treatment,the HAMD-24 scores were significantly lower in the depression improvement group(19.00±10.70)and cognitive improvement group(16.58±9.39)than in the placebo group(31.10±10.03)(P<0.01).After 12 weeks of treatment,HAMD-24 scores were significantly lower in the depression improvement group(13.58±8.43)than in the placebo group(28.10±15.04)(P=0.02).No significant interaction effect was found on the cognitive assessment scores in any dimension after 6 weeks and 12 weeks of treatment(P>0.05).The incidence rate of adverse events in the depression improvement group was 16.7%(2/12),and no adverse events were reported in the other two groups.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events among the three groups(P=0.13).Conclusion Treatment with ω-3PUFA for 6 weeks can improve the depressive symptoms of patients with depression.The formula with a higher ratio of EPA exhibits higher effectiveness while the two groups of ω-3PUFA formulas with different ratios do not improve cognitive function.
