Objective:To explore the relationship between low serum albumin levels and its duration on first episode of peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.Methods:PD patients who were regularly followed up in the Pearl River Delta region from September 1, 2000 to July 6, 2021 in Shunde Hospital of Southern Medical University, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, and Foshan First People′s Hospital were retrospectively selected. The patients were divided into low serum albumin group (LSA group, mean albumin<35 g/L), moderate serum albumin group (MSA group, 35 g/L≤mean albumin<40 g/L) and high serum albumin group (HSA group, mean albumin≥40 g/L) according to the mean albumin of the patients, and the differences among the three groups were compared. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis method was used to compare the risk of peritonitis events in different mean albumin groups and different durations of hypoalbuminemia. The multivariate Cox regression model was used to analyze the relationship between serum albumin levels and duration of hypoalbuminemia and new-onset peritonitis.Results:A total of 1 853 PD patients were included in this study, aged (49.72±15.34) years, and 1 036(55.9%) males. There were 551 patients (29.7%) in the LSA group, 920 patients (49.7%) in the MSA group, and 382 patients (20.6%) in the HSA group. The median follow-up was 37 (15, 66) months and there were 508 patients (27.4%) with new-onset peritonitis during the follow-up. Compared with the LSA group, the incidence of new peritonitis in the MSA group and HSA group was lower ( χ2=14.053, P<0.001; χ2=21.857, P<0.001), but there was no significant difference in the incidence of new peritonitis between the HSA group and MSA group. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of peritonitis in the LSA group was significantly higher than that in the MSA group and HSA group (Log-rank χ2=22.128, P<0.001). Compared with PD patients with normal serum albumin, the patients with longer duration of hypoalbuminemia tended to have a higher incidence of new peritonitis. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the mean albumin<35 g/L (LSA group/MSA group, HR=1.495, 95% CI 1.198-1.866, P<0.001; LSA group/HSA group, HR=1.459, 95% CI 1.104-1.928, P=0.008) was an independent risk factor of new-onset peritonitis in PD patients and the prolongation of duration of hypoalbuminemia had a significantly higher risk of new-onset peritonitis ( HR=1.013, 95% CI 1.003-1.024, P=0.014). Conclusion:The mean albumin<35 g/L and prolong duration of hypoalbuminemia are independent risk factors of PD-related peritonitis in PD patients.

Objective To investigate the clinical status of health quotient and parenting self-efficacy in rural primiparas, and to explore the influence of health quotient on their parenting self-efficacy.Methods A total of 132 rural primiparas were selected using convenience sampling from January 2016 to March 2017. The participants were investigated using Health Quotient Scale and Parenting Self-efficacy Scale. The univariate analysis, Pearson correlation test, and hierarchical regression were used to explore the relationship between health quotient and parenting self-efficacy. The data were analysed by SPSS 20.0 software.Results A total of 124 questionnaires were available. The health quotient score of the participants was (60.23±5.82) and the parenting self-efficacy score was (72.39±13.24). Pearson'sr test showed that there was a positive correlation between self-efficacy and health quotient (r=0.422,P<0.05). The univariate analysis showed that age, education, family income per month, and the gender of infants were predictors of parenting self-efficacy (P< 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that education, family income per month, the gender of infants, and health quotient were independent predictors of parenting self-efficacy (P<0.05).Conclusions The parenting self-efficacy is insufficient in rural primiparas. The clinical nurses can carry out more targeted nursing care according to the health quotient level to promote patients' parenting ability.

Objective: To analyze the clinical application of the open supraclavicular approach in thyroidectomy. Methods: The clinical practicability of open supraclavicular thyroidectomy was explored by comparing the traditional anterior low arc incision thyroidectomy procedure with open supraclavicular thyroidectomy in terms of patients'aesthetic satisfaction, effectiveness of the operation, operation time, and so on. Result: Twenty-two cases of open supraclavicular thyroidectomy (group B) had better aesthetic satisfaction than 29 cases of traditional incision thyroidectomy (group A)(P<0.05), and had the same operative effect with traditional incision. Open supraclavicular thyroidectomy is associated with good aesthetic satisfaction, and has the same effect as the traditional incision does. Conclusions: Open supraclavicular thyroidectomy has good clinical value for benign thyroid tumors and some malignant tumors that require unilateral lobectomy, and even for tumors larger than the incision diameter. It has good aesthetic value while ensuring the curative effect of surgery.
