Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2009;25(11):16-18
Objective To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of job satisfaction scale in order to supply quantitative tool for evaluation of nurses" job satisfaction degree. Methods 336 nurs-es from 14 general hospitals were tested with Chinese version of job satisfaction scale and analysis was carried out for reliability and validity according to the test result. Results The total Cronbach's α coefficient of Chi-nese version of job satisfaction scale was 0.901, Cronbach's α coefficient range of every dimension was 0.732~ 0.921, re-test reliability was 0.832, 9 factors were extracted through factors analysis and they explained 59.57%of the overall variance. Conclusions Chinese version of job satisfaction scale has good reliability and validi-ty, it can be used in evaluation of nurses' satisfaction degree preliminarily.

Objective To investigate the present situation of diabetic foot knowledge among nurses in Changzhi of Shanxi Province. Methods Adopting convenience sampling,100 nurses were recruited from 3 secondary hospital in Changzhi of Shanxi Province and evaluated by the questionnaire making by author. Results The average level of DF among nurses was unsatisfied. There are significant deference between who experiencing continuing education and not. Conclusions The present situation of diabetic foot knowledge among nurses in rural areas in China which should arouse more attention from management of nurse in rural area. Continuing education and professional training education should be carried out for nurses in rural area who also should develop their ability to read article,and Cognition of prevention and health education.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of preoperative sequential transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) followed by selective portal venous embolization (PVE) in patients with marginally resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).The aim was to find out whether this combined procedure helped to increase the rate of extended radical liver resection.Methods From March 2009 to November 2016,29 patients with HCC which were marginally resectable underwent preoperative TACE combined with PVE were included into this study.All these patients were subsequently assessed to undergo radical hepatectomy.The complications,laboratory results,volume changes of each liver lobe and patient survival were analyzed.Results TACE combined with PVE was successful in all the 29 patients.There were no major complications.After the procedure,the volumes of the tumor and the part of the liver to be resected decreased to certain degree.The remnant liver volume (RLV) increased remarkably.The RLV were (395.4 ±58.7) cm3 and (599.2 ±75.2) cm3 before and after the procedure,respectively.The difference was significant (P < 0.05).19 patients underwent radical hemihepatectomy or trisectionectomy,with a resection rate of 65.5% (19/29).There were sufficient surgical margins in all the resected tumors.After operation,the 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates were 58.8%,35.5% and 17.6%,respectively.Conclusion For HCC patients who had marginally resectable HCC,preoperative TACE combined with PVE efficiently controlled the growth of the tumors,decreased the volume of the liver lobe with tumor,increased the RLV,and made it possible for a planned two-stage radical hepatectomy with sufficient surgical margin and better survival in a significant proportion of patients.
