Objective The purpose of this study was to compare the differences of job satisfaction degree between contract nurses and formal nurses. Methods 350 incumbency clinical nurses were ob-tained from 3 provincial and grade three A hospitals(including nurses in internal medicine, surgical,gyne-cologic,pediatric,emergency departments and ICU). Research instruments used in this study included the self-designed demographic questionnaire and the nurses' job satisfaction scale. Results The level of the overall job satisfaction degree among contract nurses was lower than that of the formal nurses. Of all job satisfaction subscales, the scores of professional opportunities, performance and responsibility,salary and welfare, administration and hospital policy, interpersonal relationships among contract nurses were lower than those of formal nurses. But the scores of scheduling and work conditions, professional traits were higher than those of formal nurses. Conclusions It is advocated to adopt different management and incentive mechanisms to improve the job satisfaction degree for contract nurses according to the differ- ences between contract nurses and formal nurses, so that the nursing staff can be stabilized.

Objective To investigate the effect of hypothermia on the expression Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2),myeloid differentiation factor 88(MyD88),nuclear factor-κBp65(NF-κBp65),plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)in the TLR2/MyD88 pathway in rats with acute lung injury(ALI)induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)inhalation. Methods Ninety male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into control group (n=18),hypothermia group(n=24),temperature controlled group(n=24),and temperature-uncontrolled group(n=24). The ALI model was reproduced by 0.5 mL/kg LPS intratracheal instillation,while only normal saline was instilled intratracheally for control group. Arterial blood was collected and physical cooling was started 1 hour after instillation. The body temperature was lowered to 32-34 ℃in hypothermia group and 36-37 ℃in temperature controlled group,and no intervention was used for temperature-uncontrolled group and control group. The arterial blood gas was determined in all the groups before and 1 hour after instillation of saline or LPS and 1,6, 12 hours after intervention. Rats were sacrificed respectively at 1,6 and 12 hours after temperature control therapy, the morphological changes in lung tissue were observed under light microscope. The protein expression of PAI-1 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). TLR2 mRNA and MyD88 mRNA transcriptional level were determined by reverse transcription-polymeras chain reaction (RT-PCR). NF-κBp65 protein level was determined by Western Blot. Results After instillation of LPS,the oxygenation index(PaO2/FiO2)of each group was decreased obviously,the damage of lung tissues was aggravating,the lung injury score was increased significantly,PAI-1 protein in BALF and the expressions of TLR2 mRNA,MyD88 mRNA, NF-κBp65 protein in lung tissues were increased obviously. Each index was improved by therapeutic Hypothermia, the effect of which was best in using a cooling period in the 1-6 hours,while might be benefit at 6-12 hours. Compared with temperature controlled group,PaO2/FiO2(mmHg,1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)at 1 hour and 6 hours of hypothermia group was improved(1 hour:402.49±38.61 vs. 324.36±28.93,6 hours:349.72±98.20 vs. 284.35±13.68, both P<0.01),the lung injury score at 1,6 and 12 hours were significantly decreased(1 hour:6.04±0.74 vs. 7.96±0.65,6 hours:9.09±0.80 vs. 13.13±1.02,12 hours:10.79±1.42 vs. 13.42±0.68,all P<0.01),the PAI-1 protein(ng/L)in BALF at 1,6 and 12 hours were significantly decreased(1 hour:121.36±4.62 vs. 197.74±9.42, 6 hours:230.53±10.76 vs. 294.06±16.60,12 hours:270.48±13.20 vs. 319.40±10.24,all P<0.01),TLR2 mRNA and MyD88 mRNA expressions(2-ΔΔCt)in the lung tissues at 1,6 and 12 hours were significantly decreased (TLR2 mRNA 1 hour:2.18±0.26 vs. 3.04±0.39,6 hours:4.09±0.29 vs. 4.90±0.35,12 hours:6.02±0.43 vs. 7.10±0.54;MyD88 mRNA 1 hour:2.25±0.41 vs. 3.04±0.30,6 hours:5.67±0.55 vs. 7.01±0.76,12 hours:7.14±0.60 vs. 8.87±0.54,all P<0.01),NF-κBp65 protein expression(A value)at 6 hours and 12 hours was significantly decreased(6 hours:0.31±0.08 vs. 0.53±0.12,12 hours:1.05±0.17 vs. 1.76±0.35,both P<0.01). There was no difference in each index between temperature controlled group and temperature-uncontrolled group. Conclusion Hypothermia can down-regulate the expression of TLR2 mRNA,MyD88 mRNA,NF-κBp65 protein and PAI-1 in the TLR2/MyD88 pathway to protect lung tissue of rats with ALI induced by LPS inhalation from injury.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of companion support on insulin pump therapy in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.Methods A total of 60 patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,30 cases respectively. Patients in control group were given routine education,while patients in experimental group received additional intervention of companion support. Changes of blood glucose,the occurrence of negative events during the use of insulin pump and standardized usage of insulin pump were compared between two groups. Blood glucose before sleep in one random day was recorded and the fluctuation of blood glucose was compared between two groups.Results After six months,fasting and postprandial blood glucose,glycated hemoglobin and the occurrence of negative events during the use of insulin pump in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.05). The waveform stability at one random day before sleep of experimental group was better than that of control group.Conclusions Companion support plays curial roles in controlling blood glucose, improves the standardization of insulin pump operation and effectively reduces the negative events in adolescents with type 1 diabetes undergoing temporary insulin pump therapy.
