Objective To investigate the efficacy of playing games for improving the angle of genu recurvatum in children with spastic cerebral palsy. MethodsFifty children with spastic cerebral palsy were randomly assigned into a control group (25 cases) and an experimental group (25 cases).The children in both groups were treated using conventional comprehensive rehabilitation and guided family rehabilitation.The children in the experimental group also played games in addition to the conventional rehabilitation practices.The angle of genu recurvatum was assessed using a protractor before and after treatment. ResultsNo significant difference in any item was observed between the two groups before treatment.There was a significant difference in the angle of genu recurvatum after 6 months of treatment. ConclusionPlaying games has evident clinical efficacy in improving the angle of genu recurvatum of children with spastic cerebral palsy.

Objective To understand the status of basic compensation for nurses′night-shift and nursing age allowance, and provide reference basis for government to make policy. Methods A total of 956 nurses of 22 hospitals from 18 cities in Henan were investigated and analyzed by the Nurse Night-shift Compensation Status Questionnaire. Results The human resources allocation of 71.9% (687/956) respondents was not up to standard. The nurses were under labor intensity. 60.06%(574/956) nurses needed to go to the night-shift for 2-3 times every week. 86.21%(824/956) nurses thought the intensity of labor was mild light or relatively high. The swing night shift compensation of 16.1% (153/956) nurses was none. The graveyard shift compensation of 52.1%(498/956) nurses was 1 to 10 yuan. 90.49%(865/956) nurses thought inked the compensation for night shift was unreasonable. 26.31% (252/956) nurses didn′t receive any payment for the night shift. Conclusions The managers in hospital should attach importance to the legitimate rights and interests of the nurses, optimize the management of human resources and improve the status of nurse shift rotation. They also need to perfect the management of nursing project cost to reflect the nurse work value.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs combined with retinal laser photocoagulation and anti-VEGF drugs alone in the treatment of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) combined with macular edema (ME).Methods:A evidence-based medicine study. Retinal vein occlusion (obstruction), macular edema, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, bevacizumab, ranibizumab, conbercept, aflibercept, and retinal laser photocoagulation were the Chinese and English search terms. Related literature was searched in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, Weipu, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library. RVO combined with ME was selected as the research object, and the treatment plan was a clinical randomized controlled study comparing intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs combined with laser photocoagulation and anti-VEGF drugs alone. The search time range was from January 2011 to February 2021. Repeated, incomplete or irrelevant literature, case reports and review literature were excluded. Review Manager 5.4 statistical software was used to conduct a meta-analysis of the literature. The weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval ( CI) were selected as the estimated value of effect size, and the fixed effect model was used for analysis. The evaluation indicators were best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), center macular thickness (CMT), and the number of injections. Results:According to the search strategy, 461 articles were initially retrieved, and 21 articles were finally included for meta-analysis. A total of 1156 patients were enrolled, of which 576 were treated with anti-VEGF drugs combined with laser photocoagulation (combined treatment group), and 580 were treated with anti-VEGF drugs alone (drug treatment group). Meta-analysis results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in BCVA and CMT between the drug treatment group and the combination treatment group at 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment (BCVA: WMD =-0.82, 95% CI -2.38-0.74, P=0.30; CMT: WMD=-3.12, 95% CI -17.25-11.01, P=0.67). For patients with branch retinal vein occlusion and ME, combined therapy can reduce the number of injections more effectively than drug therapy alone ( WMD=-0.80, 95% CI -1.18--0.42, Z=4.10, P <0.000 1). Conclusion:Compared with pure intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs, combined retinal laser photocoagulation can not better improve BCVA and CMT in patients with RVO and ME. For patients with branch retinal vein occlusion and ME, combined retinal laser photocoagulation can effectively reduce the resistance. The number of VEGF injections.
