Objective To investigate the effects of spontaneous agonal respiration on coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) during untreated cardiac arrest (ventricular fibrillation) in swine model.Methods Ten male healthy domestic swines (25.0 ± 1.5) kg were anaesthetised,intubated and mechanically ventilated.The catheterizations were separately inserted into the right atrium and thoracic aorta to monitor aortic pressure (AOP) and right atrial pressure (RAP).A pacing electrode was inserted into the right ventricle to induce ventricular fibrillation (VF).VF was induced by intra-ventricular stimulation withalternating electric current and untreated for 8 minutes.AOP and RAP were recorded until respiratory activity ceased.The CPP before and after agonal respiration was calculated and analyzed by paired-sample T test.Results All animals presented with agonal respiration from 1 to 6 minutes after VF during the first attempt.The CPP was (7.18 ±4.22) mmHg at 1 sec before agonal respiration,(11.78 ±5.16) mmHg at 0 sec after agonal respiration,(8.75 t:4.38) mmHg at 5 sec after agonal respiration and (8.23 ± 4.55)mmHg at 6 sec after agonal respiration.The CPP at 0 sec after agonal respiration was higher than that before agonal respiration (t =-3.140,P =0.012).The CPP at 5 sec after agonal respiration was higher than that at 1 sec before agonal respiration (t =-2.828,P =0.020).There was no difference in CPP between at 6 sec after agonal respiration and at 1 sec before agonal respiration (t =-1.778,P =0.109).Conclusions Agonal respiration accompanies ventricular fibrillation.After agonal respiration,the coronary perfusion pressure is increased for 5 seconds being in favor of cardiaopulmonary resuscitation.

Objective To test the effect of different flexion angles of knee joint on the myoelectric activity and torque of quadriceps femoris and hamstring muscle when these muscles contracting.MethodsElectromyographic activities and isometric torque measurements were performed on 10 healthy subjects at 30°, 60° and 90° of knee joint flexion.ResultsThe results indicated that the greatest maximal voluntary isometric contracture-torque of quadriceps femoris occurred during knee extension at 60° of knee flexion ( P<0.01). However, no significant relationship of maximal voluntary isometric contracture-electromyography and maximal voluntary isometric contracture-torque of quadriceps femoris were found in 10 subjects. But when knee joint was at 90° flexion, hamstring muscle had a greatest neuro-myoelectric activity.ConclusionThe exercise of maximal voluntary isometric contraction of quadriceps femoris and hamstrings muscles at certain knee joint angle can help to maintain the stability of knee joint.

Aim To investigate the relationship between the brain targeting effect and P-glycoprotein(P-gp)expression level of Danshensu borneol ester(DBE)and the combination use of sodium Danshensu and borneol(SDSS-B).Methods The liquid chromatography mass spectrometry(LC-MS)method was applied to investigate the accumulation of Danshensu(DSS)in rat brain tissues after intravenous injection of DBE,SDSS-B and SDSS.Also their effect on regulating the expression level of P-gp in rat hippocampus was investigated using Western blot.Results The brain targeting effect of DBE,SDSS-B was qualitatively analyzed through the brain distribution of DSS,and the result was DBE(SDSS-B)>SDSS(P<0.01).Meanwhile,the brain distribution of DBE group was slightly lower than SDSS-B group at 15 min,while at 30 min DBE was higher than that of SDSS-B.DBE demonstrated a better slow release property compared to SDSS-B.Western blot analysis indicated that DBE,SDSS-B were more effective in inhibiting the expression of P-gp than SDSS in rat hippocampus(P<0.01 vs control or SDSS group),and the lowest P-gp expression was obtained with(47.58±2.28)％and(46.54±1.41)％at 45 min after administration of DBE or SDSS-B.Once the administration time was extended to 60 min,the inhibitory effect on P-gp expression of DBE was stronger than SDSS-B[(85.04±1.42)％vs(95.29±0.98)％].However,no significant inhibition of P-gp expression in rat hippocampus was found throughout the treatment of SDSS(P>0.05 at 5,15,45,60 min,vs control group).Conclusion An attenuated expression level of P-gp can be realized by DBE and SDSS-B,which is advantageous to their brain targeting.

Objective:To investigate the ocular clinical manifestations in pediatric patients with incontinentia pigmenti (IP).Methods:A case series study was carried out and a retrospective analysis was performed.Clinical data of 13 pediatric patients with IP treated from January 2013 to December 2019 in Xijing Hospital were collected.All the patients underwent regular ophthalmologic examination.Three patients accepted fundus fluorescein angiography and six eyes of five patients were treated with retinal photocoagulation or anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) intravitreal injection according to severity of the condition.The follow-up period ranged from 6 months to 6 years.The medical history, family history, systemic manifestations, ocular characteristics, diagnosis, treatment as well as ocular and systemic changes during follow-up were recorded and analyzed.This study followed the Declaration of Helsinki and the study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University (No.KY20203287-1).Results:All the 13 patients were female aged from 5 days to 42 months at first visit, with the average age of 2.0 (1.0, 8.5) months.As for the main skin lesions at first visit, there were 4 cases in erythematous vesicle stage, 3 cases in verrucous exanthema stage, and 6 cases in hyperpigmented stage.There were 7 cases in shrinkage stage during follow-up.Among the 26 eyes of 13 patients, 18 eyes of 10 patients showed ocular anomalies, accounting for 76.9% of total patients (69.2% of total eyes). Among the 13 patients, 8 patients presented bilateral ocular involvement, 2 patients showed unilateral anomalies, and 3 patients had no ocular lesions.The retina was involved in all patients with ocular manifestations.The typical retinal lesions included avascular zone of peripheral retina in 13 eyes, tortuous and dilated retinal vessels in 10 eyes, increased vascular branch in 7 eyes, white linear retinal arteries and partial vascular occlusion in 4 eyes, retinal neovascularization in 3 eyes, total retinal detachment in 2 eyes, and retinal fold with macular lamellar hole in 1 eye.In addition, there was retinal hemorrhage in 11 eyes, retinal pigment changes in 4 eyes, grey ridge lesions in 3 eyes, macular dysplasia in 2 eyes, choroidal atrophy in 1 eye, optic gliosis in 1 eye and yellowish-white retinal exudate in 1 eye.There were also 4 patients with other ocular manifestations, such as strabismus and eyeball atrophy.Retinal photocoagulation was performed in 4 eyes of 3 patients and anti-VEGF intravitreal injection in 2 eyes of 2 patients.The retinal lesions regressed and the condition of patients kept stable during follow-up.Conclusions:The ocular clinical manifestations in patients with IP are usually typical and diverse, and the retinal vascular lesion is the main type.Early diagnosis and timely treatment are of great significance.

Objective To explore the effect of quality control circles (QCCs) in improving the delivery health checkup report.Methods QCC was founded with the theme of"improving the quality of health checkup report delivery."First,we planned an activity schedule and identified topics.We then set target focuses for service personnel,distribution modes,and operating environments;planned countermeasures;and selected optimal policies.Circle members implemented the optimal policies jointly.Reports of physical examinations by the Guoyu health management center were selected and analyzed.The total number of reports before improvement (January to December 2015) was 59 189 of which 34 549 (58.4％) were male patients and 24 640 (41.6％) were female patients;their average age was (37.7± 11.4) years.The total number of reports after improvement (December 2016 to January 2017) was 6 568,of which 3 881 (59.1％) were male patients and 2 687(40.9％) were female patients;their average age was (39.9± 11.7) years.We compared the quality indicators and evaluated the comprehensive quality of the patients before and after improvement.A total of 65 531 physical examination reports of subjects examined at the center between February and December 2017 were selected for effect tracking,including 39 230 (59.9％) men and 26 301(40.1％) women,aged (38.1±11.5).Results The on-time delivery rate of the health examination reports from rose from 51.4％ to 94.0％.The ratio of system leakage to sign for reports decreased from 14.5％ to 0.8％.The average time between the examination and when each report was handed over to for distribution decreased from 29.8 hours to 4.2 hours,and the average time between each report being distributed to the providers checking in dropped from 509.8 hours to 72.8 hours,while the average time for the preparation of each report for delivery decreased from 13.5 seconds to 3.1 seconds.The average time between delivery of a report and its being signed decreased from 4.3 seconds to 0.1 seconds.Before the improvement,the expected goals were not met.After improvement,the delivery rate of the health examination reports was 100.0％,the delivery intact rate of the group reports was 100.0％,and the satisfaction rate of the group reports was 99.4％.The comprehensive quality for the members was obviously higher after the improvement than before.After 11 months of tracking,the delivery accuracy rate of health examination report still failed to reach the target value of 100.0％,but all other indicators reached the target value,with good results.Conclusions Application of QCC not only improved the delivery the health checkup reports,but also promoted service quality after medical examinations and ended medical dispute caused by the loss of physical examination reports.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of phase Ⅰ cardiac rehabilitation exercise on patients with acute myocardial infarction after percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:Convenient sampling method was adopted, totally 84 acute myocardial infarction patients after PCI was randomized into an observation group and control group. Both groups accepted general nursing care. The observation group also accepted the phase Ⅰ cardiac rehabilitation exercise. Cardiac ultrasonic, the 6-minute walk test were used to evaluate the patients′ cardiac function and exercise tolerance, the SF-12 were used to evaluate the quality of life.Results:After repeated measurement ANOVA, before the intervention, there was no significant difference in cardiac function and quality of life between the two groups ( P>0.05); before discharge, the 6-minute walk distance of the observation group was longer than that of the control group, and the difference was significant( F value was 5.279, P=0.024). At 1 month after discharge, there were significant differences in the LVEF( F value was 8.119, P=0.006) and 6-minute walking distance( F value was 9.829, P=0.002) between the two groups ( P<0.05), analysis of the six items of SF-12 including general health( F value was 6.905, P=0.010), physical functioning( F value was 10.595, P=0.002), role physical( F value was 11.168, P=0.001), bodily pain( F value was 12.548, P=0.001), mental health( F value was 7.362, P=0.008) and vitality( F value was 13.692, P<0.001) having shown significant differences between the two groups. At 3 months after discharge, there were significant differences in the LVEF( F value was 11.156, P=0.001), 6-minute walk distance( F value was 16.554, P<0.001)and quality of life in all dimensions between the two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Phase Ⅰ cardiac rehabilitation exercise can improve cardiac function and the quality of life in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PCI, and enhance the exercise tolerance.

Objective To evaluate the objective sleep status of patients with chronic insomnia by cardiopulmonary coupling (CPC) technique, and evaluate the characteristics of cognitive dysfunction to explore the correlation between objective sleep and cognitive dysfunction in patients with chronic insomnia. Methods Forty-three patients with chronic insomnia, admitted to our hospital from October 2017 to April 2019, were enrolled in our study;15 age-, gender-and education-matched healthy volunteers were recruited as control group. All subjects followed their daily routine at home and completed CPC examination. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Auditory Vocabulary Learning Test (AVLT), Trail Making Test (TMT) and Stroop Color Word Test were used to evaluate the general and single cognitive functions, respectively. The correlation of objective sleep with cognitive function was analyzed. Results (1) As compared with those in the control group, high frequency coupling (stable sleep) ratio was significantly decreased, low frequency coupling (un-stable sleep) ratio and extremely low frequency coupling (rapid-eye-movement sleep/waking) ratio were significantly increased, and latency of high frequency coupling was significantly prolonged in chronic insomnia group (P<0.05). (2) Chronic insomnia group had significantly lower MoCA total scores than control group (P<0.05), specifically manifested as decrement of visuospatial ability and execution and attention abilities; specific cognitive test showed that chronic insomnia group performed worse in immediate recall, and had delayed recall of AVLT, longer time consumption in TMT-B, smaller number of wired arrival numbers, and longer time consumption in Stroop color word test than the control group, with significant differences (P<0.05). (3) There was a correlation between CPC sleep structure and Cognitive Function Scale scores in patients with chronic insomnia. Conclusion In patients with chronic insomnia, stable sleep is reduced, un-stable sleep and rapid-eye-movement sleep/waking are increased; the impaired cognition domains are visual space and executive function, attention and memory; disturbed sleep structure aggravates the memory and execution impairment of patients with chronic insomnia.

The National Medical Products Administration has authorized sodium oligomannate for treating mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease.In this study,an LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated to quantitate sodium oligomannate in different biomatrices.The plasma pharmacokinetics,tissue distri-bution,and excretion of sodium oligomannate in Sprague-Dawley rats and beagle dogs were system-atically investigated.Despite its complicated structural composition,the absorption,distribution,metabolism,and excretion profiles of the oligosaccharides in sodium oligomannate of different sizes and terminal derivatives were indiscriminate.Sodium oligomannate mainly crossed the gastrointestinal epithelium through paracellular transport following oral administration,with very low oral bioavail-ability in rats(0.6％-1.6％)and dogs(4.5％-9.3％).Absorbed sodium oligomannate mainly resided in circulating body fluids in free form with minimal distribution into erythrocytes and major tissues.So-dium oligomannate could penetrate the blood-cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)barrier of rats,showing a con-stant area under the concentration-time curve ratio(CSF/plasma)of approximately 5％.The cumulative urinary excretion of sodium oligomannate was commensurate with its oral bioavailability,supporting that excretion was predominantly renal,whereas no obvious biliary secretion was observed following a single oral dose to bile duct-cannulated rats.Moreover,only 33.7％(male)and 26.3％(female)of the oral dose were recovered in the rat excreta within 96 h following a single oral administration,suggesting that the intestinal flora may have ingested a portion of unabsorbed sodium oligomannate as a nutrient.

Objective:In order to analyze the current research status of handover shift in nursing management, summarize, analyze and judge the existing literature, in order to provide reference for clinical nursing practice.Methods:Through literature review, it is planned to review the current situation, shortcomings and future development of nursing handover classes.Results:The handover process was generally divided into four stages, of which SBAR was the best practice tool for handing over key information. For the performance of handover shifts, NASR, PVNC-BR, HES and Handoff CEX were often used to evaluate the performance of shifts, and for the results of shifts, evaluations were mostly conducted at the levels of patient safety, process elements, and organizational management. At present, the use of electronic information systems, benign organizational culture and patient and family-centered clinical practice could effectively improve the efficiency and effectiveness of handover.Conclusions:The process and elements of the current shift mode are relatively complete, and the communication strategy is reasonable, but there are still many shortcomings and defects. This suggests that nursing managers should adopt scientific intervention methods and evaluation tools when paying attention to and reforming nursing handover in the future to continuously improve the quality of handover.

Objective:To explore the effect of virtual reality (VR) on sleep quality, sleep structure and neuropsychological characteristics of patients with chronic insomnia.Methods:Fifty one patients with chronic insomnia enrolled from Department of Neurology, General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from October 2021 to April 2022 were chosen; according to their wills, they were divided into VR combined drug treatment group ( n=26) and drug treatment group ( n=25). Patients in drug treatment group accepted non-benzodiazepine combined with melatonin receptor agonist and serotonin reuptake inhibitor; in patients of VR combined drug treatment group, VR was added 30 min/d for 5 d/week on basis of above drug therapy. Subjective sleep quality was assessed by Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Insomnia Severity Scale (ISI). Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were used to assess anxiety and depression. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AVLT), Digital Span Test (DST), Trail Making Test (TMT), Stroop Color Word Test A/B/C, Judgment of Line Orientation Test (JLO), and Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) were used to assess the overall and individual cognitive functions. Portable sleep monitor (PSM)-100A based on cardiopulmonary coupling technology was used to evaluate the sleep structure. Differences of subjective sleep quality, sleep structure, and neuropsychological characteristics were compared between the 2 groups before and after treatment and in VR combined drug treatment group before and after treatment. Results:(1) After 6 weeks of treatment, compared with the drug treatment group, the VR combined with drug treatment group had significantly decreased scores of PSQI, ISI, HAMD and HAMA, increased total scores of AVLT immediate memory, scores of AVLT short delay recall, long delay recall and recognition, higher SDMT scores, increased correct times of DST reciting in reverse order, shorter time in TMT-A and TMT-B, higher proportion of high frequency coupled sleep (HF, stable sleep), lower proportion of low frequency coupled sleep (LF, unstable sleep), and decreased LF/HF ( P<0.05). (2) The VR combined with drug treatment group after VR treatment had significantly decreased PSQI, ISI, HAMD and HAMA scores, higher total scores of AVLT immediate memory, higher scores of AVLT short delay recall, long delay recall and recognition, shorter time in TMT-A and TMT-B, increased correct times of DST reciting in order and reciting in reverse order, and higher scores of JLO, Stroop Color Word Test A/B/C and SDMT, higher proportion of HF sleep, lower LF sleep, decreased LF/HF, and decreased arousal frequency compared with that before VR treatment ( P<0.05). Conclusion:VR combined with drug treatment can effectively improve the subjective sleep quality and sleep structure, reduce depression and anxiety, and improve memory and attention of patients with chronic insomnia.
