Objective To explore the effects of transitional nursing on the quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A total of 118 patients in the stable phase of COPD, who were discharged from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University during March 2015 to June 2016 were selected by convenience sampling method and divided into observation group (n=60) and control group (n=58) according to the random number table. The patients in the control group were treated with routine nursing mode, while the patients in the observation group were given transitional care after discharged on the basis of routine nursing. The effects of the transitional care and patients' quality of life were evaluated with Care Transitions Measure (CTM) and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test (CAT) at three time points, before intervention, three and six months after the intervention. Results There was no statistical difference in the score of CTM between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). After intervention for 3 and 6 months, the CTM score of the observation group patients were significantly higher than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Before intervention and 3 months after intervention, patients' CAT score had no statistical difference between the two groups (P> 0.05). The CAT score of the patients in the observation group was lower than that in the control group after intervention for 6 months, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Transitional nursing mode can improve the cognition of patients in COPD stable phase, promote healthy lifestyle and behavior, and improve patients' quality of life.

Objective To investigate the clinical and prognostic significance of ABO promotor methylation level in adult patients with leukemia and myelodydysplastic syndrome(MDS). Methods ABO promoter methylation level of 182 malignant hematological disease patients and 68 normal controls were detected by bisulfite sequencing PCR. Then clinical features and outcome were compared between hypermethylation group and hypomethylation group. Results The median methylation rate of ABO promoter in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) were 46.98% and 11.01% respectively, which were both higher than that in controls (2.30%, P<0.05). The methylation rates in remission AML and ALL were 1.58%and 2.30%respectively, which were comparable with that in normal group (P>0.05). As to relapse AML and ALL, methylation rates were 41.26% and 17.50%respectively, also significantly higher than that in controls (P<0.05).In patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) chronic phase, the median methylation rate was 1.00%, which was similar to normal group. But a CML patient who transformed to ALL hadextremely high methylation rate 92.56%. The median methylation rate in patients with MDS significantly elevated as 5.81% compared with that in controls (P<0.05). The median overall survival (OS) of ALL and AML (non-M3) patients with hypermethylation were 12.5 months and 15.3 months, which were significantly shorter than those with hypomethylation (24.0 months and 20.0 months) (P<0.05). The median disease-free survival (DFS) of ALL and AML (non-M3) patients with hypermethylation were 9.9 months and 12.0 months, which were significantly shorter than those with hypomethylation (22.3 months and 18.5 months), (P<0.05). Multivariable analysis suggested that ABO promoter methylation level was an independent predictive factor of OS and DFS in ALL and AML (non-M3) patients. Conclusion ABO promoter hypermethylation is closely related to genesis, development and prognosis of leukemia and MDS. Hypermethylationis related to a clinical poor prognosis compare with hypomethylation.

Objective:
The aim of this study is to explore the application and advantages of combined intrathecal and extrathecal hypothermic plasma tonsillectomy in reducing intraoperative and postoperative hemorrhage in OSA children.
Method:
We retrospectively reviewed 726 cases who were diagnosed as OSA. All patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical method: 320 cases by total tonsillectomy and 406 cases by combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy. The intro operative bleeding volume, post operative haemorrhage data as time, location and degree in the two groups were compared.
Result:
There was no statistical difference in the intro operative bleeding volume in the two groups [(9.3±4.6) mL]vs [(7.6±3.5) mL], t=12.687, P=0.235. Two patients who underwent combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy presented with post operative haemorrhage, the total post operative haemorrhage rate was significantly decreased that in the total tonsillectomy group(14 cases)(χ²=10.779, P=0.001). The 2 patients in combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy group were secondary haemorrhage, with location in the upper pole and medium, grade A haemorrhage; while in the 14 cases in in the total tonsillectomy group, there were 2 cases presented with primary haemorrhage and 12 cases with secondary haemorrhage; with regard to location of haemorrhage, 1 in the upper pole, 2 in the medium, 11 in the lower pole; 5 cases presented with grade A haemorrhage, 8 with grade B haemorrhage and 1 with grade C haemorrhage. The haemorrhage rate at 7 days after surgery (χ²=5.697, P=0.017), at the lower pole(χ²=11.961, P=0.001) and grade B(χ²=8.097, P=0.004) were all significantly decreases in the combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy group.
Conclusion
Plasma tonsillectomy combined with intrathecal and extrathecal hypothermic tonsillectomy is a safe and effective method, which has obvious advantages in reducing the postoperative hemorrhage, especially the secondary hemorrhage of Subtonsillar Pole.
