Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of acute testicular torsion. Methods 17 cases of testicular torsion treated from January 1995 to December 2000 were reviewed.The diagnosis and treatment were analysed. Results The diagnosis of testicular torsion in all the 17 cases was assessed on color Doppler ultrasonics.1 case was cured by manual detorsion,2 by surgical detorsion and orchidopexy,14 by orchiectomy and contralateral orchidopexy.The fertile ability of 4 cases over 18 years old was observed,3 being normal and 1 slightly below normal. Conclusions Color Doppler ultrasonics examination can serve as a chief adjuvant diagnostic method.All cases with a torsion more than 360? and longer than 24 h will have the ipsilateral testicular loss,whereas in case the torsion is less than 360? and less than 24 h have a chance to preserve the testis by surgical detorsion and orchidopexy.

Objective To explore the test-retest reliability and correlations of the light-dark box (LDB).MethodsThe behavior of mice in LDB was recorded twice, for five minutes,with a one-week inter-trial interval.Following parameters were evaluated:latency time for the first entry into the dark area (Latence); percentage of time exploring in the light area ( Ltime% ); percentage of squares crossing in the light area ( Lcross% ); total number of squares crossing ( Cross ); percentage of rears in the light area ( Lrear% ); total number of rears (Rear); total score (Total); transitions between two areas (Transition); and number of fecal boli (Fbi). Subsequently,the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), the Kappa agreement coefficient (Kappa) and the Pearson correlation coefficient (Pearson) were calculated for these parameters. Results ①ICC for Lrear% ( ICC =0.5207, P<0.01 ) showed a fair reliability. ②Kappa for all parameters indicated a poor reliability. ③Pearson displayed weak negative correlations between Transition and Ltime% ( Pearson = - 0.4030, P < 0.05; Pearson =- 0. 1490, P> 0. 05 ), Lcross% ( Pearson = - 0. 4331, P > 0. 05; Pearson = - 0.1893, P > 0.05 ), Lrear% ( Pearson = - 0. 4485, P < 0. 05; Pearson = 0. 02845, P > 0. 05 ), however, fair positive correlations between Transition and Cross (Pearson =0. 8603, P<0.01; Pearson =0.6341, P<0. 01 ) ,Rear(Pearson =0.4271, P>0. 05;Pearson = 0. 7245, P < 0. 001 ). Conclusion Rear is found to be stable over time, and indicated a fair reliability.There is a weak negative correlation between Transition and Ltime%, Lcross%, Lrear%, but fair positive correlations between Transition and Cross, Rear.

Objective To explore the incidence rate, total incidence numbers and possible impacting factors of non-motor symptoms (NMSs) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods The NMS questionnaire (NMS Quest) was used to investigate 131 out-patients diagnosed with PD, and the prevalence of each item, the total NMS numbers and their relationships with clinical features were assessed. Results All of the patients, who were distributed in every stage of PD, had NMSs and each case with 11 items on average. Autonomic symptoms such as nocturia and constipation were the most frequent ones. The patients over 65 versus less than 65 years old had a higher prevalence in a number of items such as olfactory disturbance, dysphagia and constipation. At the same time, the rigidity subtype patients had a higher prevalence in depression items than the tremor subtype ones.The total number of NMS was positively correlated with course of disease, age, UPDRS score and Hoehn & Yahr (H&Y) stage. Conclusions NMSs are common among PD patients. While the prevalence of each item may vary with different clinical features, the total number of NMS is increased with the severity of PD. More attention should be paid to the diagnosis and rational treatment of the NMSs.

Modern Clinical Nursing 2017;16(4):58-62
Objective To explore the role of focus intervention mode in improving the self-efficacy and subjective well-being of newly-contracted nurses. Methods A total of 100 nurses selected as the survey subjects by means of convenient sampling method, were numbered consecutively and divided into observation group and control group by random digit number table. The observation group was intervened with conventional mental consultation and the observation group with the WeChat-based focus intervention mode, which included the use of past-oriented questions and answers for understanding their strength and sources, future-oriented presuppositions and miracle-oriented questions for their thinking of resolutions to future problems. The two groups were compared in terms of general self-efficacy and well-being by the general self-efficacy scale (GSES) and the overall well-being scale (GWB). Results Before intervention , the total scores on GSES and GWB of the observation groups were insignificantly higher than those of the control group (P > 0.05). After intervention, the scores of observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.01). Conclusion The We-Chat-based focus intervention mode can effectively improve the self-efficacy and subjective well-being of newly-contracted nurses.
