Objective To explore the relationship between MP and HSP.Methods The HSP children treated in our hospital during 2004 to 2006 were tested with MP,and the positive patients were treated with the anti-infectious methods.Results (1)The positive rate of MP was 24.14%.(2)By treating with the anti-infectious methods,all positive patients recovered.All syndrome of the patients disappeared in 3 weeks.The mean time in hospital Was (18.9±3.3)days.Conclusion MP infection Was one of the risk factors tIlat might cauge HSP.

Objective To evaluate the effect of different types of tube feeding on swallowing function of stroke patients. Methods 60 patients with dysphagia post stroke were divided into observation group and control group with 30 cases in each group. The control group received indwelling nasogastric tube feeding, and the observation group received intermittent nasogastric tube feeding. They were assessed with Kubota Water Swallow Test (WST) and VGF on the 1st day and 30th day after admission. Results The scores of drinking test and VGF were better in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05) on the 30th day. Conclusion Long-term nasogatric tube feeding is effective on dysphagia in stroke patients.

Objective To investigate the cut-off value of N-terminal portion of pro-brain nairiuretic peptid (NT-proBNP)for detecting various degrees of heart failure(HF)at different ages.Method Totally 48 patients with cardiac dysfunction(NYHA Ⅰ-Ⅳ)were from Department of Emergency Nedicine of Zhongshan Hospital Fudan University.The inclusion criteria inclued:organic heart disease,cardiac dysfunction(NYHA Ⅰ-Ⅳ).The exclusion criteria included:acute coronary syndrome,continuous atrial fibrillation,pulmonary emphysema,lung embolism,chronic renal insufficiency,anaemia,abnormal function of glandula thyreoidea,and tumor.The NT- proBNP was studied in order to find out the relevance of NT-proBNP to the classification of HF among patients aged over75 years old(age≥75 years)and patients aged below 75 years old(age＜75 years).Moreover,the NT- proBNP values were used to differentiate acute cardiogenic dyspnea.The data were expressed as(x±s)and ana- lyzed using analysis of variance and Student's t test with SPSS 11.0.A P value less than 0.05 indicated statistical significance.Results The analysis of NT-proBNP levels showed the leveis of it were associated with the grades of cardiac function and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF).NT-proBNP levels in patients aged over 75 years were higher than those in patients aged below 75 years.When patients wele of NYI-IA Ⅱ grade and NYHA Ⅳ grade,the levels of NT-proBNP showed signitieant differences between two sorts of patients(407±277 vs.1358± 967 P＜0.05;3727±1342 vs.9031±2363,P＜0.01).The cut-off value of NT-proBNP determined in 48 patients was at 525 pg/ml(AUC=0.958,sensitivity 100%,specificity 76%),at 1911 pg/ml(sensitivity 73%, specificity 96%)in patients with NYHA Ⅱgrade,which were used to identify severe symptomatic heart failure.The cut-off value of NT-proBNP determined in patients aged over 75 yeats was 849pg/ml(AUC=0.922,sensitivity 100%,s pecificity 57%),at 2990 pg/ml(semitivity 81%,specificity 100%)in patients with NYHA Ⅳ grade.Cobckysions NT-proBNP levels are associated with grades of cardiac functions limit of 75 years.It suggests that higher NT-proBNP value in patients aged over 75 years should be considered to evaluate caidiac function and identify acute cardiac dyspnea.

OBJECTIVE:To survey and evaluate the present situation and trends of antidiabetic agents used in hospitals of southwest China so as to provide information for the production,sale and consumption units.METHODS:To investigate the antidiabetic agents used in60hospitals of southwest China during the period2000～2002in respect to the sum of money of consumption,Kinds of drugs,DDDs and DDC.RESULTS:In recent3years,the annual increasing rates of consumption of oral antidiabetic agents and insulin injection were14.12%and42.09%,the proportions of costs for the oral antidiabetic agents and insulin injections in total consumption of antidiabetic agents were67.20%and32.78%respectively.CONCLUSION:The use of insulin is increasing quickly and the new dosage has developmental future.The Metformin and Glipizide are the important oral antidiabetic agents.

Objective To investigate the correlation of blood lipid metabolism abnormity and other components of metabolic syndrome on angiocardiopathy and cerebrovascular diseases in the elderly people. Methods The clinical data of elderly people, who underwent medical examination during 1996 to 2005 in the General Hospital of PLA, were retrospectively analyzed. Based on the analysis, the co-existence of blood lipid disorders with glucose metabolic abnormity, hypertension and obesity, as well as their influence on cardio-cerebrovascular diseases were further analyzed. Results The prevalence of blood lipid metabolic disturbance was 69.6%, in which the prevalence of hyper-cholesteremia and hyper-triglyceride were 23.6% and 21.7%, respectively. The prevalence of hyper-cholesteremia accompanied by hyper-triglyceride (mixed group) was 19.3%, that of hyper-triglyceride with lower high density lipoprotein cholesterol was 5.03%, while it was 30.4% in the normal group. There was a higher risk of having the above abnormal condition in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity, and they were more frequently complicated by hypertension in the hyper-triglyceride group (70.8%). When the patients with lipid metabolic disturbance were complicated by T2DM, hypertension and obesity, the prevalence of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases increased. The prevalence of CHD was higher in the patients with hyper-cholesteremia and hypertension or diabetes, and incidence of both CHD and CVD was higher in the patients with hyper-triglyceride and either one of hypertension, diabetes or obesity. Conclusion There is high prevalence of lipid metabolic disturbance (more than two thirds) and other components of metabolic syndrome, and high risk of suffering from cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases in elderly people. The aging patients with hyper-triglyceride are vulnerable to cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases, and more attention should be paid in clinical practice in future.

Objective To investigate the correlation between transformational leadership style and nurses' job satisfaction in emergency department.Method The survey was done among 168 emergency department nurses from 4 first class hospitals in Guangzhou by the demographic information,multifactor leadership questionnaire and Chinese nurses' job satisfaction scale to investigate the status of transformational leadership style perceived by nurses and nurses' job satisfaction in the emergency departments.Results The score of transformational leadership style perceived by the nurses in the emergency department was (50.60±14.40) and jop satisfaction was (79.80±13.30).The transformational leadership style was positively correlated with nurses' job satisfaction (P＜0.01).Conclusions The transformational leadership style is middle-high level.The nurses' job satisfaction is at low level,Nursing managers should play an active role in transformational leadership style to enhance nurses' job satisfaction in emergency departments.

Objective To analyze the causes of complications by pediatric fiberoptic bronchoscopy and find out the nursing measures. Method The clinical data of 60 children undergoing fiberoptic bronchoscopy were reviewed to analyze the causes of complications and concluded the nursing measures. Result Twelve in the sixty children contracted complications, including 4 cases of cyanotic , 4 cases of throat injury and 2 cases of laryngeal spasm . Conclusion Such measures as psychological nursing before operation to the children and their families for their cooperation, intraoperative oxygen suction, quick clinical examination, avoidance of frequent negative pressure suction and close observation of complications are of great importance for preventing complications induced by fiberoptic bronchoscopy.
