Objeetive To detect the influence of psychological nursing intervention in 215 Prlmiparas Methods Taking whole course psychological nursing intervention of 215 primiparas who were making appointments on obstetrical outpatient department.Take psychological care,education of in-hospital and person to person care of in-delivery room as experiment group.and choose 205 Primiparas who were delivery in ordinary way at random.Compare the rate of viginal delivmy and the rate of cesarean section and neonatal asphyxia and the rate of postpartum hemorrhage.Evaluate the effect of Psychological nursing intervention to Primiparas.Results The rate of、riginal delivery on experiment group Was higher than the control group.It also shorten the duration of labor,and control the rate of cesarean section,neonatal asphyxia and postpartum hemorrhage effectively.There ale significant difference between two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion The psychological nursing intervention is positive to the primiparasis in labor.It can increase the of viginal delivery shorten the duration of labor.and decrease the rate of cesarean section neonatal asphyxia and postpartum hemorrhage.

In April 2016,the American Geriatrics Society(AGS)entered into a cooperative agreement with U.S.Department of Transportation.National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) updates and expands the Clinician's Guide to Assessing and Counseling Older Drivers to the 3rd Edition.The main goal of the Guide is to reduce traffic accidents and injuries to older drivers.According to the workflow of evaluation and management provided by Plan for Older Driver Safety(PODS),clinicians can conduct driving strategies after screening,evaluation and result analysis.The evaluation is done based on the Clinical Assessment of Driving Related Skills(CADReS) by a team including physicians,nurse practitioners,physician assistants,pharmacists,occupational therapists,driving rehabilitation specialists,and social workers.The CADReS including a series of assessment tools are used to evaluate in the key areas,such as vision,cognition,and motor/sensory function related to driving.Some measures will be taken based on the evaluation conclusions to help to explore the potential of driving safely for old adults.

Objective:To investigate the efficiency of CBCT in the diagnosis of impacted maxillary anterior teeth and the treatment effect of different guided eruption methods. Methods:34 impacted maxillary anterior teeth in 30 patients were examined by panoramic films and CBCT, the dental crowns, root, eruption space and other related items were measured and compared between 2 examinations. 20 cases were treated by closed guided eruption and traction( CGET) technique, 10 cases by circumferential supracrestal fibrotomy and exposed traction( CSF-EE) , results were compared. Results: CBCT was more effective than panoramic films in the revelation of tooth root bending, apical pore closure and eruption measurements(P<0. 05). 7-10 d after treatment 5 out off the 10 casses treated by CSF-EE showed different degrees of clinical crown elongation, poor gum appearance and low height of alveolar ridge as insufficient periodontal attachment. However, the treatment of CGET for 26 teeth (76. 47% of all cases) was highly successful and received very satisfactory re-sults, the rest 8 teeth (23. 53% of all cases) showed mediocre satisfaction. Conclusion: CBCT can accurately display the position, shape, relation with adjacent teeth of the impacted teeth. Closed guided eruption and traction is more effective for the treatment.

A 27-peptide,a fragment of hepatitis delta antigen(HDAg),was synthesized and used to develop an ELISA method for ihe detection of anti-HD.It was found that positive anti-HD reaction occurred between the coated 27-peptide and a stored sample of serum which was known anti-HD positive.Absorption test revealed that the synthetic peptide competed with natural HDAg for anti-HD,suggesting that the peptide possessed the antigenicity similar to that of natural HDAg.The antigenicity of the synthetic peptide was quite specific wihtout cross reaction with normal human and mouse sera and with anti-HA.anti-HB and anti-HC sera.Among 300 blood donors,there was only 1 case(0.33%)anti-HD positive with an ALT level 2 times higher than normal.In 41 cases of non-B hepatitis and 52 cases of HAV hepatitis,none was anti-HD positive.In 211 cases of various types of HBV hepatitis,21 were(9.95%)anti-HD positive,among whom 2/82(2.5%)werehealthy HBV carriers,6/43(13.95%)were patients with a-cute icteric hepatitis,6/60(10.00%)were patients of chronic active hepatitis,4/18(22.20%)were patients of severe hepatitis,and 3/8(37.50%)were those with liver cirrhosis.These results were consistent with those in our previous reports.

Objective To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety profile of alpha-1-thymosin (T?_1) combined with Lamivudine(LAM) in the patients with chronic hepatitis B. Methods Eighty patients with chronic hepatitis B were randomly assigned by 1∶1 proportion to be given 100 mg LAM orally alone (LAM group) or T?_1 1.6 mg subcutaneous injection, combined with LAM(LAM+T?_1 group). Results 51.4 percent (18/35) of the patients achieved HBeAg seroconversion in combination group, while 5.4%(2/37) of the patients in LAM group achieved HBeAg seroconversion at 52 week, P

AIM: To establish the quality standard for Yinchai Granules (Caulis Lon icerae, Radix Bupleuri, Folium Eriobotryae, etc). METHODS: TLC was used to identify Radix Bupleuri, Folium Eriobotrya e and HPLC to determinate the chlorogenic acid content was determined by HPLC. RESULTS: The linear range of chlorogenic acid was 23.64~378.24ng, r=0.9999, respectively. The average recovery was 99.14%. CONCLUSION: The method is simple. The result is accurate and the reproducibility is good and can be used as the quality control of Yin chai Granules.
