Objective To investigate prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) in population at high-risk for diabetes in Changfeng community of Shanghai. Methods Totally, 982 persons aged 40-79 years without previous history of diabetes, but with risk factors for diabetes from Changfeng community in Shanghai were screened by questionnaire, physical examinations, lipid profile and oral glucose tolerance test. Prevalence of MS and its clinical characteristic were observed. Results Overall prevalence of MS was 44. 6% (438/982) in Changfeng community, significantly higher in women of 48.6% (341/701) than that in men of 34. 5% (97/281) (P<0.01). Prevalence of MS increased with age in women (P <0. 01 ), but not in men (P>0.05). Components of MS ranking from high to low were hypertension of 66. 5% (653/982), abdominal obesity of 62.8% (617/982), decreased high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) of 49. 4% (485/982), increased triglyceride (TG) of 46. 0% (452/982) and increased fasting glucose of 35.7% (351/982). There were 55.9% (245/438) of MS patients with three or more MS components in addition to abdominal obesity. Conclusions Prevalence of MS is higher in community population at high-risk for diabetes and more than half of the MS patients have three or more risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

Objective:To construct a psychological support training program for palliative care specialist nurses based on positive psychology theory and make a preliminary application.Methods:From August to September, 2020, 142 palliative nursing specialist nurses in Hunan Provincial Palliative Nursing Specialist Training Base were selected as the research objects. Based on positive psychology therapy, using literature review and analysis, semi-structured interviews, expert group meetings and other methods to construct the program, and the work stress, psychological resilience and subjective well-being scores of nurses before and after 8 weeks of psychological support training were compared.Results:The program included three dimensions: cognition, emotion and behavior. After the psychological support training for 8 weeks, the nursing staff′s work stress score 80.76 ± 20.43 was lower than that before the psychological support training 84.70 ± 19.88, the difference was statistically significant( t=6.59, P<0.05), and the psychological resilience score 64.40 ±14.26 was higher than that before the psychological support training 60.19 ±15.85, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-7.39, P<0.05), and the subjective well-being score 75.70 ± 7.70 was higher than that before the psychological support training 74.13 ± 5.98, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-3.52, P<0.05). Conclusions:The psychological support training program based on positive psychology theory can reduce the the work stress, improve psychological resilience and increase subjective well-being of palliative care specialist nurses.

Objective:To investigate the infection rate in close contacts of COVID-19 patients before and after the last negative nucleic acid test, evaluate the effect of dynamic nucleic acid test in determining the infectivity of COVID-19 patients.Methods:Dynamic nucleic acid test results of COVID-19 cases were collected in a retrospective cohort study. COVID-19 cases with negative nucleic acid test results before their first positive nucleic acid tests were selected as study subjects. Close contacts of the index cases and the secondary close contacts were kept isolation for medical observation to assess their risk of infection.Results:This study included 89 confirmed cases from two local COVID-19 epidemics in Ningbo. A total of 5 609 close contacts were surveyed, the overall infection rate was 0.20%. No close contacts of the COVID-19 cases before the last negative nucleic acid test were infected, and the infection rate in the close contacts of the COVID-19 cases after the last negative nucleic acid test was 1.33%, all of these close contacts lived together with the index cases. No secondary close contacts were infected.Conclusion:COVID-19 patient becomes infectious after the last nucleic acid is negative, and has no infectivity before the last nucleic acid negative.

Objective: To explore the safety management of implantable venous infusion port, prevent and reduce the occurrence of catheter rupture and other related complications, and implement effective treatment measures after occurrence. Methods: A patient with an implantable venous transfusion port suffered from complete rupture of the catheter outside the hospital. Under multidisciplinary consultation, the condition of the catheter inside the port was clarified, and a safe treatment plan was worked out. The multidisciplinary venous transfusion treatment team cooperated with each other to correctly implement the capture, catching and nursing in vivo. Results: With the cooperation of multidisciplinary team, the broken port and catheter were successfully and safely removed without any discomfort. Conclusions Establishing a multi-disciplinary cooperation mechanism, standardizing the quality control of implantation in infusion port, popularizing the knowledge of post-implantation maintenance and implementing the safety management of infusion port can ensure the safe and long-term application of implanted intravenous infusion port.
