Objective To understand the current situation and influencing factors of humanistic care ability of nurses in emergency department. Methods A total of 101 nurses in the emergency department of our hospital were selected to conduct a questionnaire survey using the Humanistic Care Ability Inventory (CAI). The influencing factors of humanistic care ability of nurses in emergency department by multiple regressions were analyzed. Results The total score of humanistic care ability of emergency department nurses was 220.50 ± 3.41, and there were significant differences between the total scores of all dimensions and foreign conventional model (t=3.07-5.98, P<0.05), indicating that nurses′humanistic care ability were at a high level. In the three dimensions, the orders of the total scores from high to low were:cognitive dimension, courage dimension, and patience dimension. There was statistically significance among the different grades, different titles, family members and colleagues with different caring ability degree (F=3.92-48.98, P<0.05). The higher of the grades, the titles, and the caring degree of the family and the colleagues, the stronger the humanistic care ability was obtained. There was no significant difference between all dimension scores and the total scores of male and female nurses (t=0.93-1.70, P > 0.05). There was no difference in the humanistic care ability of nurses with different sexes. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the grades and the care degree of colleagues was the most influential factor for influencing the humanistic care ability of nurses in emergency department. Conclusions Humanistic nursing ability of emergency department nurses was at a high level. Through strengthening of the nursing ability of the low-grade nurses, it can effectively improve the nurses' humanistic nursing care ability, and promote the successful development of the quality nursing work.

Objective: To investigate the relationship of involvement area with the clinical, endoscopic and pathological characteristics of ulcerative colitis (UC). Methods: We retrospectively studied the clinical, endoscopic and pathological data of 75 patients with UC, including 17(22.67%) with distal colitis,27(36%) with left-sided colitis and 31(41.33%) with extensive colitis/pancolitis. Results: No differences were found in the gender and age of onset between different groups. The incidences of main clinical manifestations and complications increased with the increase of the UC involvement, with significant difference found in the incidences of anemia, hypoproteinemia and extraintestinal manifestations between different groups (P<0.05). Positive correlation was found between the UC involvement with the UC severity (r=0.418, P<0.001) and disease activity under endoscopy (r=0.239, P=0.039). The incidence of atypical hyperplasia of enteric epithelium in extensive colitis/pancolitis group was significantly higher than those in the other 2 groups (both P<0.05). Conclusion: The UC involvement is related to the clinical, endoscopic and pathological characteristics of UC; the involvement is positively correlated with the clinical severity and disease activity of UC under coloscopy.

Background The pathogenesis of pterygium has been in the study.Relative molecular biology study showed that pterygium is a tumor-like lesion,and based on overseas literatures,human papillomavirus (HPV) is positively expressed in 100％ patients with pterygium in some region.However,if this result is suitable for Chinese patients is unclear.Objective This study was to identify the role of human HPV in the pathogenesis of pterygia in Wuxi area.Methods Forty-eight pterygium specimens including 7 recurrent pterygia and 41 primary pterygia were collected during the operation,and these patients were from Wuxi area.Two cervical carcinoma specimens and 2 conjunctiva specimens from normal donors were obtained as positive control and negative control respectively.The fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) was used to detect HPV DNA of specimens.Results The amplified curves of HPV 6,11 of pterygium specimens,cervical carcinoma specimens and normal specimens were all below the positive quality control curve,but the amplified curves of HPV16,18 were above the quality control curve in cervical carcinoma specimens; while those of pterygium specimens and normal conjunctival specimens were all below the quality control curve.HPV16/18 was identified in 2 cervical carcinoma specimens,but no HPV6/11 was detected in 2 cervical carcinoma specimens.However,HPV DNA expression in primary and recurrent pterygias were absent.Conclusions According to these results,HPV is not the primary cause for the pathogenesis of pterygium in Wuxi region.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the change in drug resistance of Staphylococcus aureus (SAU) in the PLA general hospital from January 2008 to December 2012, and to provide solid evidence to support the rational use of antibiotics for clinical applications.

METHODSThe SAU strains isolated from clinical samples in the hospital were collected and subjected to the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion test. The results were assessed based on the 2002 American National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) guidelines.

RESULTSSAU strains were mainly isolated from sputum, urine, blood and wound excreta and distributed in penology, neurology wards, orthopedics and surgery ICU wards. Except for glycopeptide drugs, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) had a higher drug resistance rate than those of the other drugs and had significantly more resistance than methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) (P < 0.05). In the dynamic observation of drug resistance, we discovered a gradual increase in drug resistance to fourteen test drugs during the last five years.

CONCLUSIONDrug resistance rate of SAU stayed at a higher level over the last five years; moreover, the detection ratio of MRSA keeps rising year by year. It is crucial for physicians to use antibiotics rationally and monitor the change in drug resistance in a dynamic way.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is a most common sexual dysfunction, for which dapoxetine, a novel selective serotonin (5-HT) re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI), is the only licensed oral medicine at present. With the advantages of fast absorption, rapid action, on-demand medication, and short half-life time, dapoxetine has been proved by clinical trials to be effective in prolonging the intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) and improving the overall condition of PE patients in various areas and populations. Compared with the traditional SSRIs, dapoxetine has a better safety and tolerability. The most frequently reported dapoxetine-related adverse events include nausea, diarrhea, headache and dizziness, but with very few severe or serious cases.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the suitability and efficacy of various encapsulation media in bioencapsulating the probiotic Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis in Artemia franciscana nauplii. The impact of the encapsulation media on nauplii survival and probiotic recovery was also determined. Methodology and results: Various encapsulation media (sodium alginate, palm oil, starch, gum Arabic and gelatin) were prepared by dissolving the respective media in artificial sea water. Each media was prepared in four different concentrations: 0.25, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 g/L. To determine the suitability of encapsulation media on the survivability of A. franciscana, survival rate (SR) of Artemia nauplii was determined after 8 hours post-encapsulation. Instar II stage Artemia nauplii at 1 nauplii per mL was used for each replicate. The result revealed that A. franciscana reached 100 % SR in the encapsulation media at ≤ 0.5 g/L. All media enabled > 23 % recovery of L. lactis subsp. lactis from encapsulated A. franciscana, which is similar (p > 0.05) to the recovery of free-cells (non-encapsulated) of L. lactis subsp. lactis. Noticeably in sodium alginate (E1) treatment, the total counts of L. lactis subsp. lactis in bioencapsulated A. franciscana were the highest among others, accounting for 2.44 × 107 CFU/mL per A. franciscana tissue homogenate. Conclusion, significance and impact of study: Artemia nauplii bioencapsulated with L. lactis subsp. lactis using 0.5 g/L sodium alginate as encapsulation medium has the highest SR for nauplii and bioencapsulation efficiency, respectively. This result provides a basic guideline for Artemia bioencapsulation in fish/shrimp larval culture.
