Chinese Journal of Hospital Administration 2011;27(5):341-345
Objective To probe into the present deployment of human resources at TCM hospitals,for the purpose of enabling the TCM hospital administrators in their policy making and nmagement of human resources.Methods 39 hospitals in the province were subject to a descriptive stndy. Results Nursing human resources in TCM hospitals in the province were found to be in shortage in general;other characteristics include irrational structure of their academic titles,insufficient nurses with senior academic titles,yet an improving proportion of competent nurses;lack of a unified model for TCM nursing in-service education confines the growth of TCM nursing personnel and TCM nursing academic development.Cbnclusion Health authorities and hospitals should deploy nurses per nursing workload,scientifically manage the contractual nurses,optimize the makeup of nursing personnel,launch fundamental training in TCM nursing,for the purposes of higher HR efficiency and better inheritance and development of TCM nursing studies.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of transcutaneous acupoint electrical nerve stimulation (TEAS) in treating post-stroke fatigue.Method A total of 80 patients with post-stroke fatigue were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 40 cases in each group. The control group was intervened by conventional post-stroke treatment, while the treatment group by TEAS in addition to the intervention given to the control group. The treatment was given once a day, 7 d as a treatment course, successively for 2 treatment courses with 1-d interval between the two courses. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) were observed before and after the treatment.Result After 2 treatment courses, the NIHSS and FSS scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those before the treatment (P<0.05). The NIHSS and FSS scores in the treatment group were significantly different from those in the control group after 2 treatment courses (P<0.05). Conclusion TEAS can effectively alleviate the symptoms of post-stroke fatigue and promote the recovery.

Objective:To explore the role CD4+CD45RO+memory T cells in the pathogenesis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) by detecting the percentages of CD4+CD45RO+ memory T cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in peripheral blood of newly diagnosed HT patients. Methods:53HT patients and 43 matched healthy controls (HC) were included in this study. According to the thyroid functions,HT patients were divided into euthyroid subset(HT-A,n =15) ,subclinical hypothyroidism(HT-B,n=14) and overt hypothyroidism subset (HT-C,n=24). The percentages of CD4+CD45RO+memory T cells in PBMCs,as well as the level of serum IFN-γ and IL-17,and thyroid functions,and the titers of thyroid-specific autoantibodies (TPOAb,TgAb) were respectively detected by flow cytometry,ELISA,and ECLIA. Results:The percentages of CD4+CD45RO+ memory T cells in PBMCs,as well as the level of serum IFN-γ and IL-17,the titers of TPOAb,TgAb were all significantly higher than that in HC(P<0. 01). Bivariate correlation revealed that the percentages of CD4+CD45RO+ memory T cells positively correlated with the level of serum IFN-γ,TPOAb and TgAb(P<0. 01,P=0. 015,P<0. 01) in HT patients. Conclusion:The significant increase of CD4+CD45RO+memory T cells in peripheral blood of patients with HT suggested a role of CD4+CD45RO+ memory T cells in the pathogenesis of this disease.

To observe and compare the therapeutic effects of treating female menopausal syndrome with auricular-point-pressing therapy and acupuncture, 86 patients were randomly divided into auricularpoint pressing group and acupuncture group, the comparative observation was conducted according to a modified Kupperman index. Statistical analysis showed that there's no significant difference between the therapeutic effects of the two groups. Auricular-point-pressing therapy and acupuncture were both effective in treating female menopausal syndrome, while auricular-point-pressing had the advantages of easy operation and acceptance.

BACKGROUND:Magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging can display the dispersion changes of peripheral nerve injury and be used to conduct quantitative research, so it has good application prospects in displaying the nerve injury and regeneration. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the possibility of magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging of rabbit acute sciatic nerve traction injury, and to figure out the value of diffusion tensor parameters in the diagnosis of peripheral nerve injuries and to reveal the pathologic basis. METHODS:The right hind limb sciatic nerves of 32 New Zealand white rabbits were selected to make the regeneration and repair models, the left hind limb nerves as the sham-operation side. Diffusion tensor imaging examination of sciatic nerves were performed at 1 and 3 days, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 weeks after operation with 1.5 T MRI. Fractional anisotropy and apparent diffusion coefficient were measured through diffusion tensor tracing
reconstruction, and then the pathological examination was performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Diffusion tensor imaging revealed only the proximal nerve, injured nerve as wel as the middle of the distal nerve at 1 day after traction injury. At 1 week, the nerve of distal portion appeared thinner and shorter fiber bundle. At 2-6 weeks after operation, the fiber bundle was increased and thickened. At 8 weeks after operation, the distal nerve fibers had nearly restored to the level before injury. There was significant difference in the fractional anisotropy value of traction portion and distal portions between traction injury and sham-operation group at 1 day-8 weeks after operation (P<0.05). While there was significant difference in the fractional anisotropy value of proximal traction portion between traction injury and sham-operation group 1 day-1 week after operation (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the apparent diffusion coefficient values between traction injury and sham-operation group at 1 day-8 weeks after operation. Fal of fractional anisotropy value in the early stage of nerve traction injury was the result of myelin sheath broke down and axonal disintegrated;recovery of fractional anisotropy value resulted from myelin sheath proliferated and myelin sheath grew slowly to mature. Diffusion tensor tracing can show the abnormal change of the sciatic nerve with traction injury in rabbit clearly and early, and the measurement of fractional anisotropy value can be used as the sensitive method to monitor the degeneration and regeneration after nerve traction injury.

A retrospective study was conducted based on the clinical data of 42 patients of portal hypertension and splenomegaly who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy.The patients were divided into two groups including pedicle priority group and conventional group by different operative method.The operation time and intraoperative blood loss in the pedicle priority group were significantly lower than those in the conventional group (both P < 0.05),and there was no statistically significant difference on the conversion rate of laparotomy,active time postoperation,exhaust time,postoperative hospitalization stay and the incidence of complications (all P > 0.05).Priority processing for splenic pedicle has obvious advantages in laparoscopic splenectomy for portal hypertension and splenomegaly,and it could reduce the difficulty of operation,shorten the operation time and reduce bleeding.
