Objective To know about the current status of the work engagement of the clinical nurses,and discuss the relatioaships among hardiness,perceived organizational support and work engagement so as to provide basis for improving the level of the work engagement of the clinical nurses.Methods The work engagement scale,hardiness scale and perceived organizational support scale were used to investigate a total of 630 clinical nurses.Results The general score of work engagement,hardiness and perceived organizational support were showed respectively as following:(52.54±8.08),(70.09±14.44) and(82.41±24.98).Every two items of hardiness,perceived organizational support and work engagement were in significant positive correlation.Regression analysis showed after the variable of demographic was controlled,the hardiness and perceived organizational support respectively had significant positive predictive function on work engagement as respective independent variables.Conclusions Hospital managers should create a good working environment for clinical nurses,measures should be taken from individual and organizational aspects so as to improve the hardiness and perceived organizational support and the work positivity of the clinical nurses,in order to make the nurses more positively devoted to their work.It had important practical significance to improve the quality of their services and stabilize nursing group.

Objective To compare the air permeability,water absorption and water locking properties of two different foam dressings,thus to provide theoretical and experimental evidence to alternative optimization for acute and chronic wound.Methods Five Mepilex foam dressings(group 1) and PermaFoam Comfort dressings(group 2) each was selected.Simulated wound exudation was made by NaCl and CaCl·H2O.The water-absorbing rate of dressings at post immersion 24 h (PIH),the water-absorbing speed of dressings at post immersion 1,5,10,20 min,the diffusion diameter of exudation dripped on the surface of dressings for 5 min,the beaker filled with exudation was sealed tightly by dressing for 24 h,and the weight was gotten before and after 24 h.Statistical analysis was performed.Results (1) The water-absorbing rate:the group 1(616±19)% was significantly higher than (313±13)% of the group 2 (t=29.137,P<0.01);(2) The water-absorbing speed:the group 1 (119.68±2.59)g·s-1·m-2,(24.39±0.62)g·s-1·m-2,(12.33±0.29)g·s-1·m-2,(12.33±0.29)g·s-1·m-2 were significantly higher than those of the group 2[(65.85±4.37)g·s-1·m-2,(13.82±1.03)g·s-1·m-2,(7.16±0.41)g·s-1·m-2,(3.66±0.12)g·s-1·m-2,t=23.704,t=19.708,22.947,31.764,all P<0.01];(3) The water holding capacity:the group 1 (5.66±0.15)cm was significantly higher than (2.2±0.12)cm of the group 2,(t=39.089,P<0.01);(4) The air permeability:there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(t=0.189,P>0.05).Conclusion The Mepilex foam dressing is more suitable for the early stage of acute wound with large exudation in short time,while the PermaFoam Comfort dressings is better for chronic wound or the later period of acute with less exudation in a relative slow seepage velocity.

Objective To evaluate the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK)-heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) signaling pathway in attenuation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALl) by dexmedetomidine in mice.Methods Forty male Kunming mice,aged 2 months,weighing 20-25 g,were equally and randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table:control group (group C),LPS group,low-dose dexmedetomidine + LPS group (group D1),and high-dose dexmedetomidine + LPS group (group D2).Dexmedetomidine 25 and 50 μg/kg were injected intraperitoneally in D1and D2 groups,respectively,and 1 h later LPS 5 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally.At 6 h after LPS injection,the left lung was lavaged,and broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for determination of concentrations of protein,tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β).The right lung was removed for examination of the pathological changes (under the light microscope) and for detection of expression of phosphorylation of p38MAPK (p-p38MAPK),p38MAPK,phosphorylation of MAPK-activated protein kinase 2 (p-MAPKAPK-2),MAPKAPK-2,phosphorylation of HSP27 (p-HSP27) and HSP27 in lung tissues.The wet to dry lung weight (W/D) ratio was calculated.The ratios of p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK,p-MAPKAPK-2/MAPKAPK-2 and p-HSP27/HSP27 were calculated.Results Compared with group C,the W/D ratio,concentrations of protein,TNF-α and IL-1β in the BALF,and ratios of p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK,p-MAPKAPK-2/MAPKAPK-2 and p-HSP27/HSP27 were significantly increased in group LPS.Compared with group LPS,the W/D ratio,concentrations of protein,TNF-α and IL-1β in the BALF,and ratios of p-p38MAPK/p38MAPK,p-MAPKAPK-2/MAPKAPK-2 and p-HSP27/ HSP27 were significantly decreased in D1 and D2groups.The pathological changes of the lung were significantly reduced in D1 and D2 groups as compared to LPS group.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine attenuates LPS-induced ALI in mice possibly through inhibiting p38MAPK-HSP27 signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of antofloxacin hydrochloride tablet for the treatment of acute bacterial infections. Methods A multi-center randomized control, double blind and double dummy clinical trial was conducted; levofloxacin tablet was chosed as controlled drug. The duration of treatment was 7-14 days in both groups. Results A total of 719 patients were enrolled in the study, in which 359 patients treated with antofloxacin and 360 patients treated with levofloxacin were included. Three hundred and thirty and 337 patients completed the study and met with all the criteria for perprotocol analysis, respectively. By the end of chemotherapy, the cured rates in per protocol set (PPS)population were 79.7% and 77.4%, the effective rates were 95.2% and 96. 7%, and the bacterial clearance were 96. 7% and 97. 5% for the treating and control group, respectively. The clinical and bacterial efficacy of antofloxacin and levofloxacin was comparable by the analysis of infectious sites. Three hundred and fifty-seven and 356 patients in antofloxacin and levofloxacin groups were evaluated the safety.The drug adverse events occurred both in 10. 1%, and drug adverse reactions accurred in 7. 8% and 7.9%patients in the two groups. The most common drug adverse reactions were mild gastroenteric symptoms. No QTc prologation was detected in all the patients. One patient in each group had mild blood glucose increase at the end of therapy, but the glucose returned to normal level without any intervention. No statistic significant difference between the two groups in clinical efficacy and safety was detected (P＞0.05).Conclusions Antofloxacin hydrochloride tablet was effective and safe for the treatment of acute bacterial infections.

Objective: To explore the influence of different inner dressings in negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on escharectomy wound of full-thickness burn rabbits. Methods: Eighteen Japanese white rabbits were inflicted with full-thickness burn on unilateral back. They were divided into polymer dressing group (PD), biological dressing group (BD), and silver biological dressing group (SBD), according to the random number table, with 6 rabbits in each group. On 3 days post burn, the wounds were performed with escharectomy, and then wounds of rabbits in group PD were covered with polyurethane foam. Wounds of rabbits in group BD were covered with porcine acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and wounds of rabbits in group SBD were covered with silver porcine ADM. Then continuous NPWT was performed on rabbits of the three groups for 7 days. Immediately after surgery and on post surgery day (PSD) 7, general observation of wound was conducted and tissue around the wound was harvested for determination of dry to wet weight ratio. The content of bacteria was counted and the content of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-6 in wound was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Fibroblasts in wound were counted after Masson staining and number of microvessels was counted after CD31 antibody immunohistochemical staining. Data were processed with analysis of variance for repeated measurement, LSD-t test, paired samples t test, and Bonferroni correction. Results: (1) Immediately after surgery, there was no granulation tissue in basal wound of rabbits in the three groups, with rich blood supply and obvious edema. On PSD 7, much granulation tissue was found in basal wound of rabbits in the three groups, with no or mild edema and no obvious redness and swelling in wound edge. (2) There were no significant differences in dry to wet weight ratios of tissue around the wound among and within the three groups immediately after surgery and on PSD 7 (with F values respectively 0.70 and 0.09, t values from 0.17 to 0.52, P values above 0.05). (3) Immediately after surgery, the content of bacteria in wounds of rabbits in groups PD, BD, and SBD was respectively (603.0±146.0) ×10^4, (573.0±63.0) ×10^4, and (590.0±100.0)×10⁴ colony-forming unit (CFU)/g, with no significant difference among them (F=0.13, P>0.05). On PSD 7, the content of bacteria in wounds of rabbits in groups PD, BD, and SBD were respectively (5.4±0.8) ×10^4, (4.6±0.9) ×10^4, and (3.5±0.9)×10⁴ CFU/g. Among them, the content of bacteria in wounds of rabbits in group SBD was lower than that in groups PD and BD, respectively (with t values respectively 3.78 and 2.29, P<0.05 or P<0.01). The content of bacteria in wounds of rabbits in the three groups on PSD 7 was decreased compared with that immediately after surgery (with t values from 10.05 to 21.81, P values below 0.01). (4) There was no significant difference in content of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in wounds of rabbits in the three groups immediately after surgery and on PSD 7 (with F values from 0.10 to 1.89, P values above 0.05). The content of TNF-α in wounds of rabbits in the three groups on PSD 7 was significantly higher than that immediately after surgery (with t values from 2.93 to 5.01, P<0.05 or P<0.01). (5) There was no significant difference in amount of fibroblasts in wounds of rabbits in the three groups immediately after surgery and on PSD 7 (with F values respectively 0.01 and 0.81, P values above 0.05). The amount of fibroblasts in wounds of rabbits in the three groups on PSD 7 was larger than that immediately after surgery (with t values from 4.78 to 11.58, P values below 0.01). (6) There was no significant difference in number of microvessels in wounds of rabbits in the three groups immediately after surgery and on PSD 7 (with F values respectively 2.42 and 2.49, P values above 0.05). The number of microvessels in wounds of rabbits in the three groups on PSD 7 was larger than that immediately after surgery (with t values from 7.17 to 11.14, P values below 0.01). Conclusions SBD is better at inhibiting the growth of bacteria. PD, BD, and SBD have almost the same effects on reducing tissue edema and inflammatory reaction, and on promoting the accumulation of collagen fibers and tissue vascularization.

Objective To explore the effects of different fluid resuscitation program on renal function in swine during shock stage of severe burn.Methods Twenty-four Guangxi Bama miniature swine were inflicted with 40％ total body surface area on the back,and then they were divided into four groups according to the random number table,with 6 swine in each group.At post injury hour (PIH) 2,swine in succinylated gelatin group (S),hydroxyethyl starch group (H),and allogeneic plasma group (A) were respectively resuscitated with succinylated gelatin,hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4,and plasma according to burn shock “ domestic general” resuscitation formula,and swine in Parkland group (P) were resuscitated with lactated Ringer's solution according to Parkland formula.Hemodynamic indexes including heart rate,blood pressure,urine volume,pulmonary capillary wedge pressure,and central venous pressure before injury,at the first and second PIH 24 were recorded.The volume of resuscitation fluid was calculated at the first and second PIH 24.Blood and urine samples were collected before injury and at PIH 4,8,24,and 48,and then serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer,urine microalbumin and urine creatinine were detected by automated urine analyzer and the ratio of which was calculated.The renal tissue of swine in each group was obtained at PIH 48,and the pathologic changes were observed by optical microscopy and electron microscope.Data were processed with analysis of variance of repeated measurement,one-way analysis of variance,and LSD test.Results (1) The hemodynamic indexes of swine in each group were similar before injury and at the first and second PIH 24 (with P values above 0.05).Compared with those before injury,except that the heart rate of swine in group A had no significant change at the first PIH 24 (P ＞ 0.05),the heart rate of swine in each group was significantly increased at the first and second PIH 24 (with P values below 0.01);except that the systolic blood pressure of swine in group P was significantly increased at the first and second PIH 24 (P ＜0.05 orP ＜0.01),there were no significant changes of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure of swine in each group at the first and second PIH 24 (with P values above 0.05);except that urine volume of swine in groups S and A was significantly decreased at the first PIH 24 (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01),there were no significant change of urine volume of swine in each group at the first and second PIH 24 (with P values above 0.05);pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and central venous pressure of swine in each group were significantly increased at the first and second PIH 24 (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).(2) Compared with that in group A,the volume of resuscitation fluid of swine in groups S and H had no significant change in the first and second PIH 24 (with P values above 0.05),while it was significantly increased in group P in the first PIH 24 and significantly decreased in the second PIH 24 (with P values below 0.05).(3) Compared with those in group A,except that serum creatinine of swine in group H was significantly increased at PIH 24 and significantly increased in group P at PIH 4,8,24,and 48,urea nitrogen of swine in group P was significantly decreased at PIH 4 and 8 and significantly increased at PIH 48,the ratio of urine microalbumin to urine creatinine of swine in group P was significantly increased at PIH 8,24,and 48 (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01),serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,and the ratio of urine microalbumin to urine creatinine of swine in each group had no significant change at each time point (with P values above 0.05).Serum creatinine of swine in group P was (125 ± 16) μmol/L at PIH 24,which was significantly higher than that before injury [(75 ± 13) μmol/L,P ＜ 0.05].Urea nitrogen of swine in group S was (2.90 ± 1.17) μmol/L at PIH 48,which was significantly lower than that before injury [(4.60 ±0.47) μmol/L,P ＜0.05];urea nitrogen of swine in group H was (4.82 ±0.82)μmol/L at PIH 4,which was significantly higher than that before injury [(3.80 ± 0.73) μmol/L,P ＜ 0.05];urea nitrogen values of swine in group A were respectively (4.80 ± 0.33),(4.92 ± 0.35),and (2.60 ± 0.27) μmol/L at PIH 4,8,and 48,while those at PIH 4,8 were significantly higher and at PIH 48 was significantly lower than the value before injury [(3.93 ± 0.32) μmol/L,with P values below 0.01].The ratios of urine microalbumin to urine creatinine of swine in group P were respectively (106.7 ±16.4) and (171.6 ± 36.9) mg/mmol at PIH 24 and 48,which were significantly higher than the ratio before injury [(59.0 ± 3.0) mg/mmol,with P values below 0.01].The serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,and the ratio of urine microalbumin to urine creatinine of swine in each group at the other time points were similar to those before injury (with P values above 0.05).(4) The renal tissue of swine in the four groups had no obvious pathological change.Conclusions According to the renal function results,fluid resuscitation with electrolyte and colloids are better than with lactated Ringer's solution in swine during shock stage of burn injury,while natural colloids and succinylated gelatin have similar effects,and both are superior to hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4.

One 24 years old female patient who suffered extremely severe burn in the third trimester of pregnancy was admitted to the Department of Burns and Skin Repair Surgery of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University on 9th May, 2015. Intrauterine distress occurred after injury and stillbirth was confirmed within 12 hours. In cooperation with the obstetrician, the labor was induced on post injury day (PID) 5. Septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome occurred on PID 8. Through treatments including anti-infection, ventilator-assisted ventilation, cardiotonic diuresis, and escharectomy and skin grafting, the patient was finally cured. This case indicates that it is crucial to grasp the right time and choose a reasonable induction of labor to deal with stillbirth. The scheme of transvaginal induction of labor after shock is a worthy question to explore. The main characteristics of this patient include the extreme paroxysmal changes in breath, circulation, and urine volume within 24 hours after induced labor, which should be monitored dynamically for effective and timely adjustment of respiratory circulation support. This may be another key point for the rescue of this type of patient. To seize the opportunities to perform escharectomy, cover the wound with xenogenic skin graft, and perform skin grafting in time for wound repair remain the top priority.

Objective: To investigate GATA3 expression and the regulatory mechanism of m6A modification in the re- sponse of alveolar epithelial cells to radiation, and to provide a new therapeutic target for radiation-induced lung injury based on its pathogenesis. Methods: Human lung epithelial cell line (A549) and mouse lung epithelial cell line (MLE-12) were exposed to X-ray irradiation with a single dose of 10 Gy (dose rate 1 Gy/min) and 6 Gy (dose rate 0.75 Gy/min), respect- ively. The expression of VIRMA gene (RNA methylase) was inhibited by lipofection of A549 cells and MLE-12 cells with shRNA-VIRMA plasmid and siRNA-VIRMA interfering fragment, respectively. Quantification of m6A RNA methylation was performed by colorimetry. Changes in the expression of mRNAs of VIRMA, GATA3, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers in irradiated A549 and MLE-12 cells were determined by qRT-PCR. Changes in the expression of VIRMA,  GATA3,  and  EMT  marker  proteins  in  irradiated  A549  and  MLE-12  cells  were  determined  by  Western  blot. Results: Radiation up-regulated the expression of methylase VIRMA in A549 and MLE-12 cells, which in turn enhanced the m6A of total RNA and the expression of GATA3 gene and protein, resulting in EMT. Furthermore, in A549 and MLE-12 cells, interference of the VIRMA gene significantly reduced the expression of GATA3 gene and protein and the expression of EMT-related molecules. Conclusion　 Radiation induces m6A modification in alveolar epithelial cells, which up-regu- lates the expression of GATA3 gene and induces EMT, thus playing an important role in the process of radiation-induced lung injury.

Objective To investigate the distribution and changing resistance proifle ofSalmonella isolates in hospitals across China during the period from January 2005 to December 2014.Methods Seventeen general hospitals and two children’s hospitals were involved in this program. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out by means of a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or MIC determination. The results were analyzed according to CLSI 2014 breakpoints.Results The proportion ofSalmonella isolates increased with time from 0.2% in 2005 to 0.7% in 2014. A total of 3 478Salmonella strains were collected from 19 hospitals. The proportion ofSalmonella typhimurium andSalmonella enteritidis was 27.4% and 24.4%, respectively. During the 10-year period, theSalmonella strains showed highest resistance rate to ampicillin (33.3%-64.8%), but low resistance to cefoperazone-sulbactam (0-5.3%) and ciprofloxacin (2.4%-14.3%).S. typhimurium showed higher resistance rate thanS. typhi,S. paratyphi andS. enteritidis. About 76.8% and 50.5% ofS. typhimurium were resistant to ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. The average prevalence of multi-drug resistantSalmonellawas 3.9% in the ten-year period, the highest (7.5%) was in 2005, the lowest (1.5%) in 2013.Conclusions During the period from 2004 to 2015, majority of theSalmonella isolates in hospitals across China wasS. typhimurium andS. enteritidis. Ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole are no longer appropriate for empirical treatment ofS. typhimurium infection due to high resistance rate.Salmonella isolates are relatively more susceptible to third-generation cephalosporins and quinolones. Ongoing monitoring is necessary to identify multi-drug resistant strains ofSalmonella.

Objective: To investigate the effect of argatroban in repair of spinal cord injury in rats. Methods: A total of 54 female Wistar rats were selected and divided into three groups according to the random number table: sham group, injury group and Argatroban group, with 18 rats in each group. The sham group only took the T₁₀lamina; the injury group used the spinal cord injury device to make the rat spinal cord injury model; the Argatroban group received Argatroban treatment after spinal cord injury. The recovery of hindlimb motor function was evaluated by BBB score and clined plate test before injury and 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42 days after injury. The sensory evoked potentials (SEP) and motor evoked potentials (MEP) were detected 42 days after operation. HE staining was used to compare the size of the cavity in the local region 42 days after injury. Results: At day 7 after injury, the BBB score was (3.7±0.5)points and the inclined plane test was (28.0±2.6)° in the Argatroban group, which were better than those in the injury group [(3.3±0.5)points, (24.3±1.9)°] (P<0.05). At day 42 after injury, the BBB score was (13.0±0.8)points and inclined plane test was (50.7±2.7)° in the Argatroban group, which were significantly better than those in the injury group [(9.7±1.3) points, (40.5±2.7)°] (P<0.05). But all the above values in the Argatroban group were significantly lower than those in the sham group [(21.0±0.0)points, (60.0±0.0)°](P<0.05). At day 42 after operation, the SEP latency [(25.0±0.9)ms] in the Argatroban group was significantly shorter than that in the injury group [(31.5±1.9) ms]; the amplitude [(2.1±0.1)μV] in the Argatroban group was lower than that in the injury group [(0.5±0.1)μV] (P<0.05). The MEP latency [(11.5±1.0)ms] in the Argatroban group was significantly shorter than that in the injury group [(17.5±1.1)ms], and the amplitude [(4.8±0.8)μV] in the Argatroban group was lower than that in the injury group [(2.8±0.7)μV] (P<0.05). And the SEP or MEP latency and amplitude in the Argatroban group showed significant differences compared to the sham group [(7.5±1.0)ms, (7.5±1.0)μV](P<0.05). HE staining showed that the central area of the lesion in the Argatroban group [(0.35±0.04)mm²] was significantly smaller than that in the injury group [(0.71±0.05)mm²]. Conclusion After spinal cord injury, argatroban can protect the spinal cord tissue effectively in the injured area and promote recovery of sensory and motor function in the hind limbs of rats.
