Objective To observe the alterations in brain gray matter volume(GMV)in idiopathic generalized epilepsy(IGE)patients with typical absence seizure. Methods Nine IGE patients with typical absence seizure and 16 healthy volunteers were prospectively recruited from People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from September 2012 to January 2014. By using a 3. 0T magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and voxel - based morphometry(VBM)method, their whole brain structures and their brain GMV were scanned and analyzed,respectively,then the changes in GMV were observed. Results Compared with healthy control group,brain GMV extensively decreased in IGE patients with typical absence seizure. Thirteen regions with significant differences were as follows:the right rectal gyrus(t = 3. 13,P ﹤0. 01),the left rectal gyrus(t = 4. 82,P ﹤ 0. 01),the right calcarine/ cuneus/ gyrus lingualis/ occipital gyrus/ inferior oc-cipital gyrus(t = 6. 86,P ﹤ 0. 01),right gyrus lingualis(t = 4. 01,P ﹤ 0. 01),the left gyrus lingualis/ inferior occipital gyrus(t = 3. 73,P ﹤ 0. 01),the left inferior occipital gyrus/ gyrus lingualis(t = 5. 42,P ﹤ 0. 01),the left middle occipi-tal gyrus(t = 3. 76,P ﹤ 0. 01),the right middle occipital gyrus/ superior occipital gyrus/ middle temporal gyrus( t =3. 85,P ﹤ 0. 01),left middle temporal gyrus/ superior temporal gyrus(t = 5. 06,P ﹤ 0. 01),the right precuneus/ cuneus (t = 3. 33,P ﹤ 0. 01),and the right superior parietal lo-bule(t = 3. 66,P ﹤ 0. 01),right precentral gyrus(t = 3. 44,P ﹤0. 01),right superior frontal gyrus/ paracentral lobule/ supplementary motor area(t = 3. 50,P ﹤ 0. 01). However,GMV increase was not found. Conclusions Brain GMV extensively decreased in 13 brain regions of IGE patients with typical absence seizure,and among them occipital lobe is the most significant.

Objective To investigate the current situation of caregiver burden of relative caregivers of multiple myeloma patients, and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods Cross-section investigation method was used in the study. A total of 125 multiple myeloma patients and their relative caregivers, who accepted treatment in the hematology department of He'nan Provincial People's Hospital from December 2015 to March 2017 were selected by convenience sampling method. The general situation investigation questionnaire, Zarit Caregiver Burden Inventory (ZBI), Barthel Index (BI), Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were adopted in the investigation. PASW 18.0 software was adopted for statistical analysis of the data. Results The ZBI score of the relative caregivers of multiple myeloma patients was (57.01±15.36), and 86.4% of the caregivers' scored at a moderate level and over. The differences of ZBI scores of the caregivers with different educational background, family average monthly income, caring time and the different numbers of complications in patients were statistically significant (t/F/H=3.924,9.656,8.062,20.608;P< 0.05). The average score of BI in multiple myeloma patients was (53.56±8.30), with moderate dysfunction, which was negatively correlated with the total score of ZBI and the scores of its all dimensions (P< 0.01). The average score of SSRS in the caregivers was (48.18± 8.53), with a high level of social support, and the average score of CD-RISC was (64.50±9.41), the two of which were both negatively correlated with the total score of ZBI and the scores of its all dimensions (P<0.05). As indicated by the results of multiple linear regression analysis, the complication number and self-care ability of the patients as well as the average monthly family income, caregiving time, social support and mental elasticity of the relative caregivers could be included in the regression equation, which explained 40.1% of the variance. Conclusions The caregiver burden of patients with multiple myeloma is relatively heavy. The complication number and self-care ability of the patients as well as the average monthly family income, caregiving time, social support and mental elasticity of the relative caregivers are the influencing factors of caregiver burden.

Objective:To explore the impact of applying micro-video tracing training model to emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) knowledge training on the autonomous learning ability and learning outcomes among emergency department nurses.Methods:In this study, the training content was developed from the perspective of the historical development of EIDs. The training program was constructed in the form of a micro-video classification module and periodic WeChat group push-based autonomous learning. Convenience sampling was used to select 85 emergency nurses ( n=85) from a grade A tertiary general hospital in Shanghai for micro-video tracing training. The nurses were provided with EIDs knowledge training using a module consisting of 11 episodes, each of which included 5 sessions, i.e., enlightening thinking, micro-video learning, key point consolidation, key point analysis, and extension and expansion. After the intervention, the nurses were compared for their autonomous learning ability and their knowledge, belief, and action levels of EIDs, and their degree of satisfaction with the training model was evaluated. SPSS 20.0 and GraphPad Prism 9.3.0 were used for non-parametric Wilcoxon paired tests of quartiles ( Q25, M, and Q75). Results:After the training, the emergency department nurses had significantly higher scores in overall autonomous learning ability ( Z=-4.69, P<0.001) and in each dimension: concept of self-motivation ( Z=-4.48, P<0.001), task analysis ( Z=-4.06, P<0.001), self-monitoring and regulation ( Z=-4.50, P<0.001), and self-evaluation ( Z=-4.82, P<0.001); they had significantly higher scores in overall knowledge, belief, and action levels of EIDs ( Z=-4.65, P<0.001) and in each dimension: knowledge ( Z=-4.04, P<0.001), belief ( Z=-3.24, P=0.001), and action ( Z=-4.05, P<0.001). Emergency department nurses had a high degree of satisfaction with the training model (degree of satisfaction for each item >90%). Conclusions:The micro-video tracing training model can effectively improve the autonomous learning ability of emergency department nurses and their knowledge, belief, and action levels of EIDs, with a high degree of satisfaction among the nurses, making it promising for wide use.

Objective:To explore the effect of responsibility management combined with nursing intervention based on Rosenthal effect on the quality of life and adverse reactions of patients with multiple myeloma.Methods:Using convenience sampling method, 75 patients with multiple myeloma admitted to the Hematology Department of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2016 to July 2018 were selected as the control group conducting responsibility management. A total of 75 patients with multiple myeloma admitted from December 2018 to March 2021 were selected as the observation group, and the nursing intervention based on Rosenthal effect was applied on the basis of the control group. The quality of life of the two groups of patients before and after the intervention was compared, and the incidence of adverse reactions during the admission of the patients was counted.Results:Before the nursing intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the scores of various indicators of the quality of life between the two groups of patients ( P>0.05) . After the nursing intervention, three functional indicators of physical function, cognitive function, emotional function, as well as scores of the fatigue, nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, insomnia symptoms and general health of patients in the observation group were better than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 9.3% (7/75) , which was lower than 24.0% (18/75) in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Responsibility management combined with nursing intervention based on Rosenthal effect can improve the quality of life of patients with multiple myeloma and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions, which is worthy of clinical application.
