Abstract BACKGROUND: Large amounts of data have shown that Chinese herbal monomer has a neuroprotective effect, and can improve the quality of life in stroke patients with cerebral nervous system injury. Nuclear-factor-erythroid 2-related (Nrf2) factor has neuroprotective effect on hemorrhagic stroke and ischemic stroke, which is an important way to reverse the damage of nervous system through the natural non-toxic Chinese herbs or composition, but it is rarely reported systemicaly. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the neuroprotective effect of Chinese herbal monomersvia the Nrf2 signal pathway in stroke patients. METHODS:The first author retrieved the CNKI, VIP, Medline, and PubMed databases by computer. The keywords were “Nrf2, ARE, stroke, traditional Chinese medicine, neuroprotection” in Chinese and English,respectively. Articles concerning the neuroprotective role of Chinese herbal monomervia Nrf2 were analyzed and discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Totaly 85 articles were retrieved. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 46 articles were included in result analysis. The results show that a variety of monomers can exert neuroprotective effectsvia the Nrf2 pathway. Chinese herbal monomers include organic acids, phenols, saponins, terpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, and other single or composite components. Traditional Chinese medicine has the clear neuroprotective effect after stroke, but it is lack of regularity, and it is stil need to expand the data and further research as the basis.

Objective:To evaluate the best preventive measures for hypothermia in patients undergoing hip and knee replacement.Methods:Cochrane Library, PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and Chinese biomedical literature database were searched by computer. Randomized controlled trials on hypothermia prevention measures in hip and knee arthroplasty were searched, and back into the literature references, the retrieval time is from database establishment to December 2019; the two researchers independently conducted literature screening, quality evaluation, and data extraction according to the inclusion exclusion criteria, and used Revman5.3 software for meta-analysis of the included literature.Results:A total of 608 patients were included in 11 literatures. The results of Meta-analysis showed that: in terms of core temperature, the main outcome index, the Forced-air Warming System was superior to the non-Forced-air Warming measure such as electric blanket, electric heating pad and circulating water mattress ( SMD=0.59, 95% CI 0.27-0.92, P=0.0004); in terms of secondary outcome indexes, the Forced-air Warming System was better than the non-Forced-air Warming measure such as electric blanket, electric heating pad and circulating water mattress ( OR=0.28, 95% CI 0.14-0.58, P=0.0006); in terms of thermal comfort, the Forced-air Warming System had no significant effect ( SMD = 0.21, 95% CI-0.56-0.98, P=0.59). Conclusion:Compared with the Forced-air Warming System, the non-Forced-air Warming measure can effectively maintain the core temperature of patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty, reduce the occurrence of postoperative chills, but in the aspect of improve thermal comfort of patients is not obvious. However, due to the number of studies and their statistical heterogeneity, large sample and high-quality studies are needed to verify the results of this study.

Objective To evaluate the effect of integrated service platform of extensional care based on the combined internet and extensional care model in the orthopedics nurse care. Methods Two hundred and eighty six hospitalized patients in the orthopedic department were randomly divided into two groups including experimental group (144 cases) and control group (142 cases) according to the random number table method. Patients in the control group received extensional care by traditional telephone follow-up, patients in the experimental group received extensional care by using the integrated service platform combing internet and extensional care. All the patients were evaluated using the self-made extensional care satisfaction questionnaire and Short Form 36 Questionnaire. Results The extensional care satisfaction scores of experimental group using internet plus extended care mode were respectively ( 74.4 ± 5.3) points and (76.2 ± 8.1) points at the time points of 3 months and 6 months after discharge from hospital;The extensional care satisfaction scores of control group were respectively (69.4±9.9) points and (70.1±12.2) points at the time points of 3 months and 6 months after discharge from hospital;The two groups had statistically comparative difference (t=7.40, 6.37, P<0.01). There was a statistically significant improvement of extensional care satisfaction and physical function score and role-physical score and social function score in the experimental group compared with the control group both at the time points of 3 months and 6 months after discharge from hospital. There was a statistically significant improvement of vitality score and role-emotion score in the experimental group compared with the control group both at the time points of 1 month and 3 months after discharge from hospital (t=2.366-8.211, P<0.05). Conclusions The effect of integrated service platform of extensional care based on the combined internet and extensional care model is better than traditional telephone follow-up, patients′satisfaction is higher. This new mode of service platform could greatly deepen the connotation of quality nursing, intensify the effect of extensional care, and reduce the working strength of nurse who did extensional care as while.
