Objective To analyze the correlation between students' scores and master degree of knowledge points in the close examination of the unit introduction of nursing. Methods A classification decision tree model was used to analyze the relationship between students' achievement and knowledge points in 321 grade 2014 nursing students. Results There were 20 knowledge points in the paper, 7 of which had significant influence on scores; there were 27 nodes,16 of which were leaf nodes; the overall predicted percentage was 86.0%. Conclusions The total score is related to knowledge score; the total score of gifted students is higher;and for total score of medium students is medium;and for total score of poor is lower. Measures to reform teaching methods and evaluation scheme should be taken.

BACKGROUND:Bionic structure is one of the most important goals of scaffold design in tissue engineering. However, the majority of the bionic scaffolds do not have the capacity of sustained release of growth factors.
OBJECTIVE:To fabricate a novel biomimetic nanofibrous heparin/gelatin scaffold and investigate the characterization of the scaffolds including the microstructure, the mechanical strength andin vitro recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) release.
METHODS:Heparin-conjugated gelatin was prepared by chemical crosslinking and mixed with gelatin at different ratios. Nanofibrous composite scaffolds with different ratios of heparin-conjugated gelatin (0, 20% and 40%) were fabricated by using a thermaly induced phase separation combined with particle leaching technique. The amount of conjugated heparin in the scaffolds, scaffold microstructures and mechanical strength were detected and observed. The release kinetics of rhBMP-2 from the scaffolds with different concentrations of heparin conjugated gelatin was detected using ELISA method.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The composite scaffolds possessed abundant porosities, good mechanical properties, and biomimetic nano-structures. The macroporous size was 250-420 μm. When the ratio of heparin-conjugated gelatin was 0, 20% and 40%, the content of heparin in the scaffolds was 0, (12.82±2.49) and (25.08±3.69) mg/g, respectively, with significant differences; the elastic modulus of the composite scaffolds was (299±38), (286±40) and (236±33) kPa, respectively, with insignificant differences (P > 0.05). With the increase in the content of heparin-conjugated gelatin, the rhBMP-2 adsorption capacity of the nanofibrous heparin/gelatin scaffold is improved, thereby significantly reducing the burst release of rhBMP-2 and prolonging the releasing time.

Airway obstruction in children is a rare,in recent years,with the development of CT technology and the development of fiber bronchoscopy,the number of cases of children with tracheal stenosis has increased year by year,but difficult clinical problem,with no clear agreement on optimal therapeutic approach.Stenting of the airway has been used successfully in adults,and is an attractive alternative in children.Fundamental differences of pediatric compared to adult use include the benign nature of most stenoses,the narrow and soft airways of children,the required long-term tolerance and adaptation to growth.So it is controversial in the indications.

Objective To investigate the application value of tuberculosis infection of T cells spot test in the diagnosis for pulmonary tuberculosis in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods According to test different ways,64 elderly COPD patients with pulmonary tuberculosis were divided into the two groups.The control group(n =32)was checked by tuberculosis antibody test,and the study group(n =32)received T cells infected with tuberculosis spot test.The two sets of results were observed and compared.Results The study group by T cell spot test TB infection,29 cases were detected positive(90.63%),3 cases of negative(9.37%);tuberculosis antibody detection by the control group,23 cases were detected positive(71.88%),9 negative patients (28.12%).Compared the two groups,the study group had higher positive rate(χ2 =3.954 7,P <0.05),and nega-tive rate was lower(χ2 =3.914 7,P <0.05).Conclusion Tuberculosis infection T cell spot test in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis in patients with COPD in the elderly has greater value,more accurate diagnosis,reliability and worthy of promotion.

Objective To realize the current status of central sterile supply departments(CSSDs)in hospitals,and provide the basis for making improvement measures.Methods Field investigation was adopted to study the resource distribution,personnel structure,and the quality of medical instrument cleaning in 78 hospitals in Chongqing.Re-sults Qualified results of 78 hospitals was 24.36% (19/78),basically qualified rate 52.56% (41/78),unqualified rate 23.08% (18/78);inspection results of different types of hospitals were significantly different(Hc= 16.643,P=0.002),qualified hospitals mainly concentrated on city- and county-level hospitals.Unqualified rate of CSSD con-struction area was 78.21% (n= 61),unqualified rate of personal allocation was 75.64% (n= 59),concentrated man-agement of operating rooms and CSSDs was 52.56% (n= 41),mainly concentrated on city- and county-level hospi-tals;decentralized management accounted for 47.44% (n= 37),58(74.36% )hospitals used repeated cleaning stain-less steel tables for receiving,50% didn’t install automated cleaning machine and drying cabinet,42.31% (33/78) performed manual cleaning,40(51.28% )didn’t equip with water treatment system;12(15.38% )hospitals used patched or worn clothing for packing,47 didn’t equip with hard metal container,37(47.44% )had no heat sealing machine,21(26.92% )had no detection equipment for cleaning quality,41(52.56% )had no low temperature sterili-zation instruments;52(66.67% )hospitals performed biological monitoring on high pressure steam sterilizer.Conclu-sion Clean and disinfection equipments in CSSDs in city- and county-level hospitals are well-appointed,procedures of clean and disinfection are standard,and can achieve the standard of clean quality;while hospitals affiliated to fac-tories and private hospitals are not well-appointed,procedures of clean and disinfection are not standard. Construc-tion of CSSD should be standard,so as to ensure the effectiveness of clean,disinfection and sterilization of surgical instruments.

In the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2) overexpressing breast cancer,some patients have drug resistance to trastuzumab.Potential mechanisms of resistance to trastuzumab include impaired access of trastuzumab to Her-2 ; alternative signaling from insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R),hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR) and so on; aberrant downstream signaling caused by loss of phosphatase and tensin homologs deleted from chromosome 10 (PTEN);phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic alpha polypeptide gene (PIK3CA) mutation; over-expression of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) and CD44. Additionally,potential strategies for overcoming resistance to trastuzumab include using new targeted medicines,such as pertuzumab,lapatinib and trastuzumab-DM1.

Monitoring data of antibiotic susceptibility from both home and abroad showed that carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are being on the rise,which represents an increasingly urgent clinical danger and an emerging public health concern worldwide.In order to effectively prevent CRE transmission in healthcare settings,we should not only pay high attention to the capability building of the laboratory of clinical microbiology,but also actively explore into the mechanisms of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae.What's more,we should substantially raise the detection capacity of laboratory on CRE,effectively carry out the antimicrobial stewardship program,and strictly implement hand hygiene and contact precautions.(Chin J Lab Med,2013,36:300-302)
