Objective To investigate the applicability of autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model in predicting healthcare-associated infection(HAI) in children.Methods The ARIMA model was constructed according to the incidence of HAI in a hospital from January 2011 to December 2014.With the use of information criterion,optimal model was determined;HAI data in 2015 was as test samples,the feasibility of the model was evaluated.Results ARIMA (0,1,1) was the optimal prediction model for HAI rate,the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criterion(BIC) of the ARIMA (0,1,1) were 66.61 and 70.76,respectively.The Ljung-Box statistics value Q =14.14 was not significantly different (P =0.658),suggesting a white noise sequence of residuals with a good model fitting.The mean absolute percent error(MAPE) between actual and fitting value of HAI was 22.4,the actual values were within the 95％ confidence interval.Conclusion ARIMA model fits the time series data,and can achieve satisfactory effect on predicting the incidence of HAI in hospitalized children.

Objective To explore the influence of occupational stress and personality traits on job burnout of nurses from psychiatry-specialized hospitals and general hospitals in Wenzhou .Methods 110 nurses from psychiatry-specialized hospitals and 103 nurses from general hospitals in Wenzhou were surveyed by questionnaires of Nurses′Occupational Pressure Source Scale , Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), and Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI).Independent-Samples t Test was used for comparison of occupational stress , personality traits and job burnout of the two groups , and multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the data.Results Total average scores of occupational stress of nurses in psychiatry-specialized hospitals were (2.57 ±0.37), higher than the those of nurses in general hospitals (2.19 ±0.42), (t=2.158, P<0.05). Scores of the dimension of emotional stability in EPQ of nurses in psychiatry-specialized hospitals were (54.68 ± 9.04), higher than those of nurses in general hospitals (45.16 ±10.39), (t=2.184, P<0.05).For nurses in psychiatry-specialized hospitals, scores of emotional exhaustion in MBI were (28.40 ±5.50), and scores of depersonalization were (10.59 ±3.31), higher than those of nurses in general hospitals; while scores in dimension of low sense of achievement were (22.16 ±3.45), lower than those of nurses in general hospitals (t=2.381, 2.330, -7.694; P<0.05).It was revealed in multiple regression analysis that for nurses in psychiatry-specialized hospitals , emotional stability had a positive predictive function on emotional exhaustion ;working environment , resources and emotional stability had a positive predictive function on depersonalization ;nursing profession and work had a negative predictive function on low sense of achievement ;for nurses in general hospitals, patient-caring had a positive predictive function on emotional exhaustion;workload and time allocation had a positive predictive function on depersonalization; patient-caring, emotional stability, workload and time allocation had a negative predictive function on low sense of achievement .Conclusions Degree of job burnout of nurses in psychiatry-specialized hospitals is higher than that of general hospital nurses .The influences of occupational stress and personality traits on job burnout have a synergistic effect .

Objective To establish the methods of galvanic vestibular stimulation-vestibular evoked myogenic potentials(GVS-VEMPs)in healthy children and to obtain the normal value of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in these children in China.Methods Twenty(3～14 years)healthy children and 24 healthy adults(18～30 years)were enrolled for conventional examinations of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP.Using the galvanic stimulation in-tensity under 3 mA/1 ms for children and 5 mA/1 ms for adults.The characteristics of elicitation and parameter re-sults of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in children and adults,as well as the pain scores and the elicitation of differ-ent stimulus intensities in the two age groups were recorded.Results The elicitation of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP were both 100.0％in children and adult groups.The p1 latency,n1 latency and p1-n1 interval latency of GVS-cVEMP were 10.46±1.84 ms,16.98±2.12 ms and 6.52±1.42 ms respectively in children group,the n1 la-tency and p1-n1 interval latency were significantly shorter than the adult group(P＜0.05).The n1 latency,p1 la-tency and p1-n1 interval latency of GVS-oVEMP were 8.87±1.40 ms,12.25±1.80 ms and 3.39±1.07 ms re-spectively in children group with no significant difference between the two groups.The thresholds of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in children group were significantly lower than adult group(P＜0.01),but no differences were found in adult group regarding on the amplitude and interaural amplitude asymmetry ratio.In addition,with the in-crease of the intensity of galvanic stimulation,the correlation between pain scores and the elicitation rates of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP also increased.Conclusion Using appropriate stimulus intensity and recording methods,GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP could be successfully assessed and detected in healthy children over 3 years old and adolescents.The latency of GVS-cVEMP in children is slightly shorter than that in adults,therefore we recommend selecting the matched age group for assessment in the children group.

Tinnitus and anxiety disorder are common clinical symptoms. Comorbidity between tinnitus and anxiety state is increasing year by year. The relationship between tinnitus and anxiety state has always been a hot topic, and this paper reviews the literature on the relationship between chronic subjective tinnitus and anxiety state in recent years.

Objective To analyze the clinical significance of subjective visual vertical (SVV) tests at different head deflection angles in assessing utricle function in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). Methods A total of 61 BPPV patients who were treated at the Hearing Impairment and Vertigo Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from August 2022 to May 2023 were retrospectively included, and 29 healthy adults were selected as controls. SVV tests were performed on all research subjects at different head deflection angles: upright head (0°), left head 45° (L45°), right head 45° (R45°). The test results between the two groups were compared. Results SVV absolute value at R45° in BPPV group was lower than that in the control group (P＝0.003); there was no significant difference in SVV values at 0° and L45° between the two groups. There was no statistical difference in SVV values at different head deflection angles between the control group and the left BPPV group. SVV absolute value at R45° in right BPPV group was lower than that in the control group (P＜0.001); there was no statistical difference in SVV values at 0° and L45° between the two groups. Conclusions SVV test can provide subjective information about the utricle, and SVV tests at different head deflection angles can fine-tune evaluate the function of the utricle in BPPV patients.
