Objective To discuss the systematic training method for new nurses in central sterile supply department(CSSD),in order to improve the training effects of new nurses and special practice ability,and make them to be qualified for jobs in CSSD.Methods 18 new nurses in CSSD were divided into the control group and the experimental group with 9 nurses in each group.The experimental group adopted systematic training method combining with unit tests and comprehensive evaluation.The control group chose the traditional training method.The testing results were compared between two groups.Results The experimental group all passed through the unit evaluation and comprehensive evaluation,could work independently after the training,got excellent achievement in comprehensive assessment of the department after 3 months on-the-job,and could finish all the work and solve various emergencies.4 passengers failed in unit assessment in the control group,and 3 failed in the comprehensive evaluation.The average results in the experimental group were obviously higher than that of the control group.Conclusions Scientific training content,the systematic training method,comprehensive evaluation method can avoid the blindness and arbitrariness in training and improve training effect.The implementation of unit access system and post access system in standardized training of new nurses can improve the study enthusiasm and strengthen the risk and responsibility consciousness of nurses,which is beneficial to the growth of new nurses and professional value guidance.

Objective To explore the anxious condition of nurses and correlative factors,and to explore the relationship between the nurses' anxiety and the correlative factors,so that can help the management echelon and nurses to correctly understand the relationship of anxiety and pressure,and control and handle the anxiety problem of nurses fundamentally,and improve the physical and mental health,work efficiency and nursing quality of nurses. Methods A questionnaire investigation was conducted in 85 nurses from a certain hospital in Harbin about the anxiety,life events,work stressor and the relationship between them. Results 30 nurses had anxiety(the anxiety group),another 55 nurses showed no anxiety(the nonanxiety group).The comparison of items in life events inventory showed that great difference existed in pregnancy,addition of new family members,the difficulty of training their children,property damage or being stolen,living apart with the spouse,magnificent changes of the life style,having got severe illness or wound.In the aspect of work sttessor scale,professional and career issues,workload and allocation of time,working environment,patient care and interaction showed significant difference.The work pressure was significantly associated with the level of anxiety. Conclusions Our finding suggest that effective stress management strategies should be implemented to reduce or eliminate work pressure of nurses,carry out training to improve the self-regulation ability of nurses,and if necessary biofeedback therapy can be introduced.

Objective To investigate the influence of caspase-3 on the apoptosis of glomerulus cells in chronic arsenic poisoning. Methods Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats in cleanliness grade were randomly divided into high-dose group,low-dose group and control group,10 in each (5 males and 5 females). The rats in high and low groups were treated with As2O3 through drinking water,10 and 0.4 mg/(kg?d) respectively,for four months. The content of arsenic in the blood and urine was determined. The expression of caspase-3 in the glomerulus cells was detected by SABC immunohistochemistry and analyzed through image patterns. Results Compared with the control group,a higher arsenic content in the blood and urine,more positive cells of caspase-3 and lower OD value the glomerulus cells were found in both of high-dose and low-dose groups. Compared with low-dose group,a higher arsenic content in the blood and urine,more positive cells of caspase-3 and the lower value of grey degree in the renal glomerulus cells were all found in high-dose group. Conclusion The obvious increase of caspase-3 in the glomerulus cells may play a role in the apoptosis of the glomerulus cells induced by chronic arsenic poisoning.

Objective To study the expression of interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF-1) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and the influence of prolactin (PRL) upon it. Methods The level of serum PRL in quiescent condition was examined by electrochemiluminescence-meter in 30 patients with SLE and 20 healthy controls. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were separated from all the subjects by gradient centrifugation density, and cultured with or without the presence of recombinant human PRL (rhPRL) for 24 hours. The expression of IRF-1 gene in cultured PBMC was detected by reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR) with gel image scanning. Results The relative value of IRF-1 gene expression was significantly higher in SLE patients than in normal controls (0.89±0.21 vs 0.78±0.18, P=0.026), and in SLE patients with high PRL than in those with normal PRL (1.06±0.26 vs 0.82±0.21, P=0.005). However, there was no significant difference between SLE patients with normal PRL and healthy controls in regard to the expression of IRF-1 gene (P=0.514). The stimulation with rhRPL significantly elevated the relative expression of IRF-1 gene in SLE patients with normal PRL (0.99±0.22 vs 0.82±0.21, P=0.036), but had no obvious effect on that in the normal controls. Conclusion The study reveals a high expression of IRF-1 gene in SLE patients, which may be related to the high level of PRL.

Objective To investigate the plasma total tau(T-tau)and phosphorylated protein tau(P-tau)protein in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease(AD).Methods 22 352 medical patients aged over 60 years in Beichen Area Community Service Center were involved in this survey.Random sampling principle was used for screening.Mini-mental state examination(MMSE)and activities of daily living assessment form(ADL)were conducted for the cognitive function and ability of daily score firstly.When the score below the standard,the Hamilton depression scale and Hachinski ischemic scale were re-used for diagnostic score.Related laboratory tests were conducted to exclude other central nervous system and other systems and material causes of dementia patients.Ultimately,105 cases of AD,diagnosed by the neurologist,and 42 cases of non central nervous system disease,non dementia non nervous system disease patients as the normal control group were involved.T-tau and P-tau levels in the two groups were determined by ELISA.Results the T-tau concentration in AD group(15.93+6.59)ng/L was higher than control group(14.10±6.32)ng/L,no significant difference was found (P ＞ 0.05).However,compared with control group (0.69 ± 0.24) ng/L,P-tau protein in AD group (1.26 ± 0.75)ng/L increased significantly(P＜0.05).Conclusion Plasma levels of phosphorylated tau protein might have diagnostic value for AD patients.

OBJECTIVE: Uterine cervical cancer is the most common malignant tumor in Korean women. Human papillomaviruses are associated in 85-90% of the cases. However, other cofactors are considered to be important in carcinogenesis. There is an evidence that the uterine cervix is the site of shedding of the Epstein-Barr viruses(EBV). Furthermore the virus has been detected in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and invasive carcinoma of the uterine cervix. We studied to evaluate the role of EBV in cervical carcinogenesis. METHODS: Non-neoplastic cervices(12), carcinoma in situ(32), microinvasive squamous cell carcinomas(9), invasive squamous cell carcinomas(37) and adenocarcinomas and adenosquamous carcinomas(14) were studied for EBV infection. PCR and in situ PCR for EBNA-1 were done and subtyping was done using PCR for EBNA 3C. RESULTS: In non-neoplastic cervix, EBV was detected in 16.7% by PCR and found in normal epithelial cells and lymphocytes in in situ PCR. By PCR technique, EBV was detected in 65.6% of CIS, 66.3% and 51.4% of microinvasive and invasive squamous cell carcinomas, 57.1% of adenocarcinomas and adenosquamous carcinomas. EBV subtyping was done in EBV positive cases by PCR and all showed type 1. CONCLUSION: EBV was detected in higher frequency in cervical cancer than in non-neoplastic cervix. However the frequency was not correlated to the invasion depth and histologic types of cervical carcinomas. EBV was detected in tumor cells as well as normal epithelial cells and lymphocytes also. It was suggested that EBV may play a role in cervical cancers but the mechanism in carcinogenesis remains to be solved.
