Objective To study the primiparas' sexual problems after delivery and the effect of in-dividualized nursing interventions on improvement of these problems in order to provide theoretic base-ment for sexual health education after delivery. Methods 248 primiparas after delivery in women's hos-pital were randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group with 124 cases in each group. All of them received self- designed questionnaires about sexual problems one year before pregnancy. The primiparas in two groups all receives routine care. Besides, the intervention group was given sexual health manual and received one-to-one individualized nursing intervention on sexual life after delivery according to their own conditions. The two groups were all received countercheck during 4 to 6 months after delivery and the results underwent X2 test. Results There was no significant difference between the sexual prob-lems one year before pregnancy for the two groups. But when calling back during 4 to 6 months after deliv-ery, compared with the control group, the intervention group had less sexual problems. Conclusions It is necessary to strengthen sexual health education in order to improve the sexual problems after delivery. Indi-vidualized nursing interventions can not only fulfill the sexual health demands of different primiparas after delivery, but also guarantee the women's privacy and safety.

BACKGROUND:Monofocal intraocular lens can restore distant vision of cataract patients, butit is not suitable fornear vision recovery, so most ofpatientsstil need to wear glasses. In contrast, multifocal intraocular lens can make up for the shortcomings of the single lenstoim provenear vision and increase the rate oftaking off the spectacles.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the visual function of senile cataract patients after aspheric multifocal and monofocal intraocular lens implantation.
METHODS:Totaly 30 senile cataract patients with 50 affected eyes were randomly divided into two groups: the eyes were implanted with aspheric multifocal and monofocal intraocular lens as experimental group and control group, respectively. At 3 months after implantation, distance visual acuity at a distance of 5 m, the best corrected distance visual acuity,as wel asnear and intermediate visual acuity at a distance of 30, 60 and 100 cm were detected, respectively. Besides, contrast sensitivity at a spatial frequency of 0.8, 1.5, 6 and 18 cpd under light and dark environment was measured.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3 months after implantation, the distance visual acuity at a distance of 5 m in the two groups was significantly better than that before surgery (P< 0.05); no significant differences were found in near and intermediate visual acuitiesat a distance of 5 m and 100 cm between two groups, but the near visual acuitiesat a distance of 30 and 60 cm in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P< 0.05). In addition, the contrast sensitivity at different spatial frequencies under light environment had no significant differences between two groups; and compared with the control group, contrast sensitivity at the frequency of 6 cpd under dark environment was significantly decreased in the experimental group (P< 0.05), but no significant differences were found in the other spatial frequencies. These results show that aspheric multifocal intraocular lens can significantly improve the near and intermediate visual acuity of senile cataract patients compared with the monofocal lens.

Objective: To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on cognitive function in D-galactose (D-gal)-induced aging rats, and the correlation between the effect and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)-ASC-Caspase-1 signaling pathway. Methods: Forty-six male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a control group (n=10), a model group (n=12), an EA-7 d group (n=12) and an EA-21 d group (n=12). Except the control group, the other three groups received 42 consecutive days of intraperitoneal injection of D-gal to establish aging rat models with cognitive dysfunction. The control group received the same amount of normal saline via intraperitoneal injection. Two EA groups were given EA therapy for 21 consecutive days (began from the 22nd day of modeling) or 7 consecutive days (began from the 36th day of modeling) accordingly at Dazhui (GV 14), Baihui (GV 20), Shenshu (BL 23) and Zusanli (ST 36). After modeling/ intervention, all four groups received behavioral evaluations by Morris water maze (MWM) test, novel object recognition (NOR) test and step-down passive avoidance (SDPA) test followed by the Western blot (WB) detection of the expression levels of hippocampal NLRP3 inflammasome-associated proteins NLRP3, ASC and Caspase-1. Results: MWM (place navigation test, PNT) results showed that the escape latency in the model group was significantly longer than that in the other three groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference among the other three groups on the 1st day of the test (P>0.05). From the 2nd day to the 4th day of the test, there was no significant difference between the EA-21 d group and the control group (P>0.05) in the escape latency; the escape latency was significantly shorter in the EA-21 d group than in the model group and the EA-7 d group (P<0.05). MWM (spatial probe test, SPT) results showed that the time spent in the target quadrant was significantly shorter and platform crossover number was significantly lower in the model group than in the other three groups (P<0.05). The time spent in the target quadrant was longer in the EA-7 d group than in the model group (P<0.05), but was shorter than that in the control group and the EA-21 d group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the swimming speed among the four groups (P>0.05). NOR results showed that there was no significant difference in the recognition ratio between the EA-7 d group and the EA-21 d group (P>0.05), and the recognition ratio was significantly higher in the two EA groups than in the model group (P<0.05), but was lower than in the control group (P<0.05). SDPA results showed that the electric shock number was higher in the model group than in the other three groups (P<0.05), and the differences among the other three groups were statistically insignificant (P>0.05). The model group had the shortest step-down latency, followed by the EA-7 d group, the EA-21 d group and the control group in order (P<0.05). The WB results indicated that the expression level of NLRP3 was significantly lower in the control group and the EA-21 d group than in the model group and the EA-7 d group (P<0.05). The expression levels of ASC and Caspase-1 were significantly higher in the model group than in the other three groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference among these three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: NLRP3 inflammasome may be involved in the development of cognitive decline in aging rats; 7 consecutive days of EA intervention can partially improve the cognitive impairment in aging rats though the effect is rather limited; 21 consecutive days of EA intervention may improve the learning and memory abilities in aging rats via downregulating the expression levels of NLRP3 inflammasome-associated proteins in hippocampus.
