Objective To evaluate the effect of care bundle in improving the hand hygiene compliance of neonatal intensive care unit staffs. Methods We implemented care bundle strategy through QCC activity: strengthening training and management to improve the hand hygiene awareness of the medical staffs, environmental and workflow reform,improving the hand washing method and facilities and creating hand hygiene atmosphere, all staffs participated and supervised each other to ensure right way of washing hands. The hand hygiene compliance rate of medical staff after entering the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and before touching the neonates before and after the intervention were compared. Results After care bundle intervention, the hand hygiene compliance rate of medical staff after entering the NICU and before touching the neonates raised obviously from 32.1% to 97.4% and from 92.0% to 99.3%. The occurrence of nosocomial infection reduced from 2.22% to 1.38%. Conclusions Care bundle can significantly improve the hand hygiene compliance of medical staff, and prevent nosocomial infection.

Objective To study the significance of Wnt5a gene expression in gastric carcinoma (GC). Methods The Wnt5a mRNA expressions in SGC7901 cell line and normal gastric mucosa GES-1 cell line were detected by RT-PCR. The Wnt5a protein expressions in 60 GC and 30 matched tumor-adjacent normal tissue samples were examined by immunohistochemistry using the streptavidin-peroxidase method.χ2 test was used to analyze Wnt5a expression on the clinical pathologic features of gastric carcinoma. Results Both Wnt5a mRNA and Wnt5a protein were significantly higher in SGC7901 cells than those in GES-1 cells. The positive rate of Wnt5a protein expression was also significantly higher in GC than that in tumor-adjacent normal tissue (P < 0.05). Positive expression of Wnt5a was associated with higher degree of regional lymph node metastasis and the later TNM stage (P < 0.05). Conclusion Higher expression of Wnt5a seems to promote invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer, and Wnt5a might play an oncogene-like role in the development of gastric carcinoma.

Objective To explore the application value of sensitive index of nursing quality in nursing management of patients with cancer pain.Methods One hundred and eight patients with cancer pain in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from February 2014 to March 2015 were selected as the control group;one hundred and eight patients with cancer pain in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from April 2015 to June 2016 were selected as the study group.The traditional cancer pain nursing quality evaluation criterion was taken in the control group,and the improved cancer pain nursing quality evaluation criterion was taken in the study group to evaluate the nursing quality.The accuracy of pain assessment,awareness rate of cancer pain knowledge,degree of satisfaction to the nursing work were compared between the two groups.Results The accuracy of pain assessment of patients in the study group (90.7％,98/108)was significandy higher than that in the control group (45.4％,49/108) (x2 =51.16,P ＜ 0.05);the awareness rate of cancer pain knowledge of patients (98.1％,106/108) in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (72.2％,78/108) (x2 =28.83,P ＜ 0.05);the satisfaction rate of the patients in the study group (100.0％,108/108) was significantly higher than that in the control group (85.2％,92/108) (x2 =17.38,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The overall quality of cancer pain care can be improved by strengthening the quality evaluation of the pain assessment accuracy and the awareness rate of cancer pain knowledge in patients with cancer pain.

Objective:To compare and analyse the clinical outcome, advantages and disadvantages of submental artery island flap (SAIF) and free anterolateral thigh flap (ALTF) in the repair and reconstruction of tongue after radical surgery of tongue cancer.Methods:From January, 2016 to December, 2018, a total of 40 patients received tongue repair and reconstruction with either SAIF or ALTF after radical resection of tongue cancer. There were 28 males and 12 females, with an average age of 51 years old. Eighteen patients received tongue repair and reconstruction with SAIF and 22 with ALTF. Postoperative follow-up were carried out and the clinical data were collected. Swallowing, speech and softness of the tongue between the 2 repair methods were compared and statistically analysed. P<0.05 indicated a significant statistical difference between 2 groups. Results:All flaps survived. One ALTF had a venous vascular crisis. The flap survived after the removal of thrombus at the anastomotic site. Functional recovery of tongue was analysed after the follow-up of 12-48 months. It was found that there was no significant difference in speech function between the 2 groups (SAIF vs ALTF: 13 vs 15, P=0.206). The swallowing dysfunction in SAIF group was significantly higher than that of the ALTF group (SAIF vs ALTF: 15 vs 7, P=0.014). Moreover, the average time of surgery in SAIF group (3.5 h) was significantly less than that of the ALTF group (6.8 h), which had statistically significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The SAIF and ALTF are ideal flaps for repairing the tongue defect caused by tongue cancer surgery. SAIF features a simple surgical procedure and a short time for flap taking. ALTF provides sufficient amount of tissue to cover the scars left by the surgery, reduce donor site complications, and benefit the recovery of swallowing and speech functions.

Background Venous malformation damages the local tissue severely because of the progressive development and often presents with invasive biological behavior.Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is proved to be closely associated with local invasion of malignant tumor.Studying the role of Gal-3 on tissue invasion in venous malformation of ocular region is of important clinical significance.Objective This study was to explore the role of Gal-3 protein and mRNA expression in venous malformation of ocular region.Methods One hundred and eighteen pathological sections were collected from ocular venous malformation patients who received surgery in Department of Hemangioma Surgery,People's Hospital of Henan Province and Henan Eye Institute from June 2009 to June 2014.The specimens were further diagnosed by histopathological examination.Then the expressions of Gal-3 protein and mRNA in venous malformation of ocular region were detected by using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization and compared with 20 pieces of distal cutting edge specimens which were evidently normal.The associations of Gal-3 positive expressions with invasion and configuration of lesions were analyzed.Results Pathological examination showed that venous malformations tissues contain many big blood vessels lacuna, lined with fiat endothelial cells.Immunochemistry and in situ hybridization exhibited that Gal-3 protein and mRNA were expressed in the cytoplasm and nuclei.The positive expression rates of Gal-3 protein and mRNA in the venous malformation tissues were 55.93％ (66/118) and 59.32％ (70/118) , but those in the normal tissue were 15.00％ (3/20) and 20.00％ (4/20) ,showing significant differences between them (x2 =11.461, 10.633, both at P＜0.05).No significant differences were seen in the positive expression rates of Gal-3 protein and mRNA between the patients aged ≤ 12 years and ＞12 years or different genders (age: x2 =0.334,0.128;both at P＞0.05.gender:x2 =0.606,1.155;both at P ＞0.05).The incidence rate of invading ocular deep tissues was significantly higher in the Gal-3-positive groups than that in the Gal-3-negative groups of protein and mRNA (protein :x2 =32.688, P＜0.05;mRNA : x2 =23.695, P＜0.05).In the Gal-3-negative groups,96.15％ (Gal-3 protein negative group) and 97.92％ (Gal-3 mRNA negative group) lesions showed the spherical shape with clear boundaries.The lesions texture with the fuzzy boundaries and the incidences of vague structure in lesions were significantly higher in the Gal-3-positive groups than that in the Gal-3-negative groups of protein and mRNA (protein :x2 =28.255, P＜0.05;mRNA : 28.186, P＜0.05).Conclusions Gal-3 expression rate is raised in the deep tissue-invaded and texture disorder ocular venous malformation.These results suggest that invasion and damage of ocular venous malformation are associated with the up-regulation of Gal-3.

Objective:To evaluate the value of adenosine triphophate (ATP)stress/rest nuclide myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)in the diagnosis of female patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods:The clinical materials of 47 female suspected CHD patients were retrospectively analyzed,aged from 39 to 74 years,and the average age was (53.7±6.3)years old.All patients were hospitalized and underwent two-day ATP stress and rest nuclide MPI and coronary angiography (CAG)in two weeks. The results and images of MPI and CAG were evaluated by more than 2 attending physicians. Using CAG as the “gold standard”, the diagnostic efficiency (sensitivity, specificity and accuracy) of MPI for CHD was evaluated. Results:Compared with CAG, the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of ATP stress MPI in diagnosing the female CHD patients were 81.3% (13/16),77.4% (24/31)and 78.7% (37/47)individually;the positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 65.0% (13/20)and 88.9% (24/27).There were no severe adverse effects in the ATP stress test and the incidence of adverse effects was 85.1%.Conclusion:There is a highly diagnostic efficiency of ATP stress MPI in the CHD patients.It can be the first choice of examination methods for screening without injury and diagnosing the myocardial ischemia in the female patients.

Objective To explore the effects of aerobic exercise and resistance training on center arterial blood pressure.Methods Fifteen healthy men who had not practiced aerobic exercise or resistance training within the previous 6 months were enrolled in this study.A self-matched pairs design was adopted.All of the subjects performed moderate intensity aerobic exercise,for 30 min initially,and after 2 weeks,performed resistance training at 60％ of their l-repeat maximum effort (1-RM).Their central aortic systolic blood pressure (CSBP) before and after aerobic exercise and resistance training were measured and compared,respectively.The changes in CSBP and an augmentation index (AI) of radial artery and relative blood pressure were compared between the two interventions.Results CSBP decreased significantly after both sorts of training.The two types of training showed no significant difference in their effects on CSBP.However,after a 20 min recovery,systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure were significantly lower after aerobic exercise than after resistance training.The significant difference persisted after 20 min and 40 min of re-covery.The AI of the radial artery was also significantly lower 5 min after aerobic exercise than after resistance train-ing.Conclusions After moderate aerobic exercise and resistance training,CBSP,AI and systolic pressure all display favorable changes.However,moderate intensity aerobic exercise provides the better effect in improving blood pressure.

This article was to elucidate that the needling depth is closely related to the meridian qi, disease location, disease nature and needled area based on the records of needling depth in Nei Jing (Canon of Internal Medicine). Moreover, different depths will produce different therapeutic efficacies;meanwhile, improper depth may lead to grave consequences.
