Objective: To explore the burden of spouse caregivers of patients with dementia at home and factors having influence.Methods:Forty-two patients with dementia were collected from psychiatric out-clinic consecutively. Trained investigators did home visit to collect data on severity of the disease (CDR, MMSE), pathological behavior (BEHAVE-AD), activity of daily living (ADCS-ADL) and burdens of their spouse as caregiver (CBI). The caregivers' anxiety, depression (Zung's Anxiety Scale and Depression Scale) and knowledge about dementia were also collected.Results:The caregivers felt big burden (BDI total score: 30.7?15.1). Nearly half of them (42.9%) were in depression and one quarter (23.8%) were anxious. They were lack of knowledge about dementia and unskillful in care-giving. 26.2% caregivers thought dementia is curable or equal to normal aging, 57.1% of them did not believe it is an improving disease. The burden of caregivers was correlated positively with pathological behavior of patients (r=0.40, P

Gynecologic personnel training is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) of qualified personnel in the new century. With the opportunities and challenges in these years, improving the quality of TCM Gynecologic personnel training to adapt to economic and social development has great significance. For the situation of Gynecologic students difficult to word, and poor ability to adapt clinical reasons, we propose a five complex combination of moral, intellectual, research, economics, thinking education model, training Gynecologic compound talents, educating more skilled talents for medical practice.

Objective To analyse effect of berberine combined with levofloxacin on myocardial enzymes, isozymes and serum inflammatory factors in children with diarrhea.Methods 58 patients who were diagnosed with pediatric infectious diarrhea in our hospital were collected.All patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 29 cases in each group.two groups of patients were given routine treatment, including infusion, maintaining water and electrolyte balance, supplemental calories etc.On the basis of routine treatment, control group was intravenous dripped with levofloxacin injection 200mL,one times per day,and experimental group was treated with berberine hydrochloride tables 0.2 g orally on the basis of control group.The treatment period was one week of two group.After one week of treatment, the serum levels of myocardial enzymes, isozymes, inflammatory factors and clinical curative effect were detected in all patients.Results Compared with control group post-treatment,the serum AST,ALT and LDH levels were lower than that of experimental group(P<0.05);the serum CK and CK-MB levels were lower than that of experimental group(P<0.05);the serum TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-10 levels were lower than that of experimental group(P<0.05);the total effective rate was higher in experimental group(P<0.05).Conclusion The berberine combined with levofloxacin can significantly reduce the serum myocardial enzymes, isozymes and serum inflammatory factors in children with diarrhea, improve clinical curative effect.

OBJECTIVE:To reduce the error rate of inventory in the automated pharmacy of our hospital. METHODS:Activi-ties were designed and implemented by the management method of quality control circles(QCC)-PDCA(Plan,Do,Check and Ac-tion)cycle. The reasons for the errors of inventory in the automated pharmacy were analyzed to investigate and implement counter-measures. Visible and invisible achievements were evaluated,and then standardized processes were made. RESULTS:The errors of inventory in the automated pharmacy mainly included those of drug dispensing,drug shelving,drug return sheet,automatic medi-cine dispensing machine and system. In view of the above reasons,relevant standards were formulated and performed,including the process of warehouse-out check and shelving of drugs,drug dispensing process for the automated pharmacy,the process of sec-ondary check,etc. After the implementation of the activities,the error rate of inventory in the automated pharmacy reduced from 9.17% to 3.77%,which was visible achievement;and the above-mentioned standardized processes could ensure continuous run-ning of PDCA cycle. The practice,sense of responsibility,communication and coordination of management members in PDCA cy-cle namely invisible achievements were improved to some extent. CONCLUSIONS:The management method of QCC-PDCA cycle is feasible in reduction of the error rate of inventory in the automated pharmacy,which can provide a reference for automated phar-macy management.

Objective To investigate the restricting factors of long-term care of stroke survivors in community.Methods The phenomenological methodology was adopted in the study.Sixteen stroke survivors were interviewed.Data were analyzed by Colaizzi's method.Results Three themes were found,including physical barriers,incorrect attitude towards disease,and defects of community health service.Conclusions On the basis of improving technology and ability,medical workers in community should consider of supporting the patients with information of disease and useful resources in a variety of ways,and improving the patients health literacy.

In comparison with the clinical PET scanner,PET scanner for small animals puts forward a higher demand in spacial resolution and sensitivity. This article describes the development of the PET scanner for small animals and compares the characteristics of several kinds of contemporary typical PET scanners for small animals in different aspects based on the development of detectors. Meanwhile,it also introduces the development of the detectors designed for measuring depth of interaction (DTC) to reduce parallax error.

At present,intranasal delivery has entered clinical trial stage.In recent years,how to imroving the efficiency of intranasal delivery has been extensively investigated.This article briefly reviews some factors that impact the targeting of intranasal delivery and the drug concentration in the central nervous system.

ranches of portal vein were found in 3 cases. Conclusion The multi-slice spiral CT findings of eosinophilie hepatic infiltration are relatively specific, and three-phase dynamic CT studies can be a valuable tool for the diagnosis of this disease.

Objective To assess the value of plasma level of cystatin C(Cyst-C)and carotid artery plaque score(PS)in predicting significant coronary artery disease(SCAD)in patients with chest pain. Methods A total of 192 patients with chest pain were involved retrospectively. According to the coronary angiography results ,the patients were divided into groups of SCAD (n = 128) and non-significant coronary artery disease (NSCAD , n = 64). Analyses were done to discuss the association of Cyst-C and PS with SCAD and the predictive value of Cyst-C and PS for SCAD. Results Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that Cyst-C and PS were independent predictors of SCAD. The odds ratios(OR)associated with the Cyst-C(each 1 mg/L)and PS(each 1 mm)for prediction of SCAD were 1.329 and 1.197,respectively. The areas under the receiver-operating characteristic curves(AUC)for the Cyst-C and the PS to predict the SCAD were 0.654 and 0.688,respectively. The combination of Cyst-C and PS increased the AUC to 0.742. The optimal cut-off value of Cyst-C was 0.95 mg/L and had a sensitivity of 72.3% for SCAD. Similarly,the optimal cut-off level of PS was 3mm which presented a sensitivity of 70.7%. A Cyst-C ≥ 0.95 mg/L and a PS ≥ 3 mm had negative predictive values of 46.3% and 48.3%,respectively,for SCAD. By combining Cyst-C with PS ,the sensitivity and negative predictive value increased to 83.6%and 62.5%, respectively. Conclusions Cyst-C and PS are both correlated with SCAD. They are independent predictive factors for SCAD in patients with chest pain. Combination of Cyst-C and PS can improve the predictability ,which may increase the reliability of screening SCAD before cardiac catheterization.

As a pilot program of teaching reform,some excellent undergraduates majoring in nursing were selected to take specialized courses in ICU in order to cultivate the intensive care specialized nurses.The teaching team of specialized courses in ICU was established to guarantee the teaching quality.The team was in charge of the ICU specialized curriculum building,textbooks selection and teaching content examination.The high leveled teaching team of specialized courses in ICU was organized by taking teaching and researching section as a unit to improve theoretical teaching level,using clinical department as training base to enhance practice skill and participating in special subject classes and in-service study to promote specialized quality.
