The process of diagnosis and nursing of a case with human granulocytic anaplasmosis who was confirmed by etiological diagnosis and molecular biology analysis was analyzed.The matters needing attention in nursing and nosocomial infection control were discussed and analyzed.To avoid misdiagnosis and mistreatment,cross infection,reduce pain and economic burden of the patients,to provide references for future diagnosis and treatment of human granulocytic anaplasmosis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate mutations of MECP2 gene in classical sporadic Rett syndrome (RTT) patients in China.

METHODSPolymerase chain reaction, single strand conformation polymorphism, cloning and direct sequencing were employed to analyse the three exons of MECP2 gene in 26 RTT patients and their parents, and in 2 sisters of 2 of the RTT patients.

RESULTSNine different mutations in exon 3 were identified in 14 of the 26 patients with RTT, including 3 missense mutations, 3 nonsense mutations, and 3 frame-shift mutations (2 deletion mutations and 1 insert mutation); 2 of these were novel. A missense variant was also identified, which was carried by unaffected father and affected daughter.

CONCLUSIONMutations in MECP2 gene were found over 50% of patients with RTT in China.

Objective:To explore the effect of nursing intervention based on protection motivation theory on medication compliance and quality of life in elderly patients with Parkinson′s disease.Methods:From August 2017 to August 2018, 60 elderly patients with Parkinson′s disease were selected. The patients were randomly divided into the control group ( n = 30) and the intervention group ( n = 30). In the control group, the routine nursing model was adopted, and the intervention group accepted the nursing intervention based on the protection motivation theory. Two groups of patients were investigated by using medication compliance scale and the 39-item Parkinson′s Disease Questionnaire. Results:Three months after the intervention, 86.67%(26/30) of the patients in the intervention group and 33.33%(10/30) of the patients in the control group had good compliance with the drug, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 17.778, P < 0.05). The total scores of quality of life and scores of physical activity, daily life behavior, mental health, humiliation, social support, cognition, communication and physical discomfort in the intervention group were 26.20±3.12, 4.00±0.76, 4.87±1.19, 2.33±0.72, 1.93±0.17, 2.80±0.86, 4.40±1.12, 2.27±0.80, 3.27±1.10, the scores in the control group were 39.20±2.88, 7.40±1.12, 7.13±0.83, 3.80±0.68, 2.87±0.64, 4.27±0.96, 5.20±0.68, 3.73±0.70, 5.07±0.80, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t value was -2.366-11.849, P <0.05). Conclusion:Nursing intervention based on the protection motivation theory can improve the compliance of elderly patients with Parkinson's disease and their quality of life.
