Objective To explore the reasonable nursing interventions of advanced schistosomiasis patients. Methods The medical records of 52 advanced schistosomiasis patients hospitalized from 2008 to 2013 were collected,and the nursing interven-tions were summarized. Results The 52 cases of advanced schistosomiasis included 38 men and 14 women,with a mean age of 65.8 years(57-75 years). Totally 53.8%of the subjects were schistosome positive by IHA test,67.3%positive by ELISA,and 21.2%positive of HBsAg. There were 13 cases of ascites type,34 cases of megalosplenia type,and 5 cases of dwarfism type of ad-vanced schistosomiasis. Following the therapy together with nursing interventions,73.1%achieved clinical cure,23.1%achieved stable,and 3.8%achieved improvement. The major nursing interventions involved basic nursing,diet nursing,treatment nursing, physiological nursing and surgical nursing. Conclusion The scientific and reasonable nursing interventions can improve the ther-apeutic efficacy and prognosis in advanced schistosomiasis patients,as well as improve their quality of life.

Objective The study aimed to investigate the influence of head nurse's transformational leadership style on emotional labor and psychological empowerment of nurses.Methods Totally 851 staff nurses from four 3A hospitals were investigated with the Transformational Leadership Style Sub Scale of Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire,Psychological Empowerment Scale and Emotional Labor Scale.Results The head nurse's transformational leadership style scored (2.41±0.81).The psychological empowerment of nurses scored (3.27±0.47),its autonomy dimension scored (3.81±0.50),staying at medium level.The emotional labor of nurses scored (3.68±0.61),its deep acting dimension scored (4.67±0.76),which was above medium level.The indirect correlation coefficient between head nurse's transformational leadership style and emotional labor (r=-0.13) was far higher than direct correlation coefficient (r=-0.04).The psychological empowerment was the full mediation variable by which head nurse's transformational leadership style influence emotional labor of nurses.Conclusions Head nurse's transformational leadership style can enhance nurse's selfefficacy,cognition of work significance and work autonomy,so that nurse's deep acting and positive perception of emotional display can be increased,and nurse's emotional exhaustion and job burnout can be decreased to retain nurses.

ResultsThe outcome was well (Glasgow Outcome Scale scores, 4～5) in 50 cases, and poor in 17 cases(Glasgow Outcome Scale scores, 1～3)．The median of time staying in hospital was 19 d in patients accepted surgery, and 11 d in the patients accepted intervention (P<0.05)． The preoperative Hunt-Hess grade was related with the outcome (P<0.05). ConclusionThe Hunt-Hess grades and the location of aneurysms are related with the outcome, but the treatment of surgery or intervention is not.

【Objective】To investigate the role of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in the prevention of acute rejection in renal transplantation.【Methods】A total of 106 patients were randomized into two groups.One group received MMF (n=56),the other received azathioprine (Aza) (n=50).The time of the following study was within the first 6 months after transplantation.【Results】The rate of acute rejection of group receiving MMF was 20%,it′s lower than that of the group receiving Aza 44% (P<0.01).The recovery rate of acute rejection treated by methylprednisolone (MP),in MMF group 82% was higher than Aza group 55%.(P<0.05).Meanwhile the hepatotoxicity as well as cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection were lower in MMF group than those in Aza group.【Conclusion】MMF as a new anti-rejection drug could more effectively prevent acute rejection than Aza after renal transplantation,and has lower toxicity and side effect.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have the ability to persistently generate hepatocytes and biliary cells, and thus in the repair process of liver injury, replenish the reduced number of hepatocytes due to damage and participate in damaged liver structure.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplantation on acute liver failure and the expression of CD163 and interleukin-10 in rat serum and liver tissue.
METHODS:D-galactose and lipopolysaccharidewere used to make acute liver failure models in 60 Sprague-Dawley rats. Then, the rats were divided into control group and transplantation group. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells at passage 3 were injected through tail vein in the transplantation group, and normal saline was injected in the control group. After transplantation 24, 120, 168 hours, serum samples and liver tissues were col ected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After transplantation 120 and 168 hours, the serum alanine transaminase and aspartate aminotransferase activities of the transplantation were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). In the transplantation group the apoptotic index was stil lower compared with the control group, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). The levels of CD163 and interleukin-10 in the serum and liver tissue in the transplantation group were decreased significantly compared with the control group (P<0.05). The results suggested that there were highly significant correlations between CD163 and interleukin-10 (P<0.01). Bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation has a therapeutic effect on acute liver failure rats. CDl63 and interleukin-10 play a very important role in the pathogenesis of acute liver failure, which can be used as sensitive serum marker proteins for diagnosis and prognosis of acute liver failure.

Objective: To determine the protective effect of zero-balanced ultraifltration and modiifed ultraifltration on infants’ pulmonary function atfer cardiac surgery. Methods: Sixty infants with congenital heart diseases were randomly divided into 3 groups: a zero-balanced ultraifltration group (Z group), a modiifed ultraifltration group (M group) and a zero-balanced ultraifltrationwith modified ultrafiltration group (Z+M group). Oxygenation index (OI), difference of alveoli-arterial oxygen pressure (P(A-α)O2), static lung compliance (Cstat), and airway resistance (Raw) were measured before caridopulmonary bypass (CPB, T1), 20 minutes atfer the CPB (T2), 2 h atfer the operation (T3), 6 h atfer the operation (T4) and 12 h atfer the operation (T5). hTe time of mechanical ventilation was also monitored. Results:Atfer the CPB, OI and Cstat in all groups decreased signiifcantly, while Raw and P(A-α)O2 increased signiifcantly. At T3, T4 and T5, OI and Cstat in the Z+M group were signiifcantly higher than those in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05), Raw andP(A-α)O2 in the Z+M group were signiifcantly lower than those in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05). hTe ventilation time in the Z+M group was signiifcantly shorter than that in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Zero-balanced ultrafiltration and modified ultrafiltration can effectively promote the pulmonary function atfer cardiac surgery in infants.

Seasonal influenza epidemics and influenza pandemics caused by influenza A virus (IAV) has resulted in millions of deaths in the world. The development of anti-IAV vaccines and therapeutics is urgently needed for prevention and treatment of IAV infection and for controlling future influenza pandemics. Hemagglutinin (HA) of IAV plays a critical role in viral binding, fusion and entry, and contains the major neutralizing epitopes. Therefore, HA is an attractive target for developing anti-IAV drugs and vaccines. Here we have reviewed the recent progress in study of conformational changes of HA during viral fusion process and development of HA-based antiviral therapeutics and vaccines.
