[Objective]To investigate the quality of life of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases and to analyze the factors affecting the quality of life so as to provide clinicians information on effective intervention measures. [Methods] Using SF-36 questionnaire, the quality of life of 92 patients with inflam-matory bowel diseases was surveyed and a comparison was made with general population. The affecting factors on quality of life were explored using multi-ple stepwise regression analysis. [Results]The SF-36 total scores in patients with inflammatory bowel disease ranged from 51.10 to 136.40. The scores on five dimensions of role physical, bodily pain, general health, social function, role emotional were significantly lower than the general population( P<0.01). Regression analysis showed that the factors affecting quality of life were mainly disease activity index, self evaluation on disease, age, working(studying) condition and economic situation. [Conclusions]Quality of life in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is lower than the general population. Control-ling disease activity index and strengthening comprehensive interventions can improve quality of life of the patients.

Objective To analyze the major issues existing in grounded theory literature in nursing in China so as to improve nursing personnel's understanding of grounded theory and promote its application in nursing research. Methods Grounded theory literature in nursing were retrieved from Wangfang, CNKI and VIP Databases from January 2000 to April 2016. Articles which using grounded theory as a research method were included. Two researchers analyzed the main issues of these articles, explained misunderstanding and inappropriate research practice in depth based on grounded theory evaluation criteria, personal experiences and relevant knowledge, and some suggestions were offered accordingly. Results Twenty articles were included. The major pitfalls of these articles were methodology (11 articles, accounting for 55.0%), sampling (14 articles, accounting for 70.0%) and saturation (9 articles, accounting for 45.0%), data analysis (9 articles, accounting for 45.0%) and conceptualization (9 articles, accounting for 45.0%). Conclusions Although grounded theory has been used in many fields in nursing in China, it is still in the initial stage, and some misunderstanding appeared. It is necessary to strengthen the learning of grounded theory knowledge and practical exploration, increase the learning paths in future so as to improve the research quality and promote the development of nursing research.

Objective To know the correlation about PetCO_2 and PaCO_2, the meanings of PetCO_2monitoring in respiratory failure patients with mechanical ventilation, and then summarize the related nurs-ing points. Methods Divided 112 patients in ICU into the A group(58 eases) and the B group(54 cas-es) according to their station of hemodynamics. Mechanical ventilation were used in both the two groups,PetCO_2 and PaCO_2 were monitored at the same time, and then observed the correlation of PetCO_2 and Pa-CO_2 in both the two groups. Results There was a significant corrlation in the A group about PetCO_2 and PaCO_2, while the correlation in the B group was not significant. Conclusions PetCO_2 and PaCO_2 had sat-isfactory corrlation in patients with stable hemedynamies, PetCO_2 monitoring can take place of PaCO_2 in these patients with its sensitive, atraumatic, consecutive and convient merits.

AIM: Through detecting bone marrow angiogenic mediators and inhibitors in aplastic anemia(AA) patients,the value of angionesis in AA pathogenesis was elucidated.METHODS: The patients were divided into severe AA group(SAA,8 patients),non severe AA group(NSAA,10 patients),and normal control group(7 persons),5 patients were observed before treating(group beginning) and getting improvement(group improving).The angiogenic mediators vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and bFGF were detected by ELISA,angiogenic inhibitors IFN? and TSP were detected by ELISA and flow cytometry,respectively.RESULTS: The levels of VEGF were lower in SAA group and NSAA group than those in control group significantly(P

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Wendan decoction in the treatment of phlegm-heat accumulation type acie vulgaris.Methods 62 patients with phlegm-heat accumulation type ache vulgaris were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group randomly,with 31 patients in each group.The control group was given dietary advice and skin cleansing techniques,while the treatment group was given oral administration of Wendan decoction on the basis of the control group.Results ①skin damage comparison:after the treatment,skin damage symptoms such as tenderness (0.71 ±0.32),redness (0.47±0.63),cyst(0.59±0.53),and tubercle (0.63±0.54) in the treatment group were significantly improved than the control group [the values were (1.12±0.32),(1.44±0.21),(1.40±0.36),(1.18±0.43),respectively] (P＜0.05).②symptoms score comparison:The symptoms score in the treatment group after the treatment (42.95±1.53) was significantly improved than that before the treatment (52.89± 1.98),(P＜0.05),and also obviously better than the control group after the treatment.③clinical efficacy comparison:Total efficacy was 96.77％ in the treatment group and 54.83％ in the control group,showing marked difference(P＜0.05).Conclusion Wendan decoction is effective in treating phlegm-heat accumulation type acne vulgaris.

AIM: To observe the cytotoxicity on myeloma cells mediated by anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody-mabthera, after heightening level of CD20 expression on myeloma cells membrane by ?-interferon. METHODS: 10 untreated(UT) and 10 relapsed or refractory(RR) MM patients'myeloma cells were cultured with human recombinant ?-interferon (hr?-IFN) at concentrations of (0-800)?10~3 U/L to heighten level of CD20 expression, then complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) on myeloma cells mediated by mabthera were studied through MTT methods. RESULTS: When CD20 expression of UT MM and RR MM patients' myeloma cells increased after treated by hr?-IFN, 12 mg/L and 16 mg/L mabthera mediated ADCC and CDC (against) myeloma cells in group UT patients and group RR patients, respectively. CONCLUSION: After heightened level of CD20 expression on myeloma cells membrane by hr?-IFN, mabthera mediated ADCC and CDC against myeloma cells in vitro.

AIM: To study the effect of Bene Jones protein (BJP) from multiple myeloma(MM) patient and TGF-? 1 on cultured renal proximal tubular cell(PTC) proliferation. METHODS:[ 3H] TdR incorporation was used to study the effect of ?BJP and TGF-? 1 on cultured rat NRK.52E PTC proliferation,the expression of TGF-? 1 in the supernatant of PTC cultured with BJP was assessed with ELISA. RESULTS:① [ 3H] TdR incorporation of PTC was inhibited by BJP in a dose-dependent manner,when co-cultured with 100-800 ?mol/L BJP and 2.0 ?g/L TGF-? 1, the [ 3H] TdR incorporation was lower than that of BJP alone, especially when BJP≥400 ?mol/L; ②The expression of TGF-? 1 in the supernatant of PTC cultured with BJP was increased ,especially when BJP≥400 ?mol/L( P

Purpose: Body image changes are common among patients living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) because of the illness and related treatments. Currently, there is little known about how those patients experience and perceive their altered body image in the literature. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences of body image changes in patients with IBD in China and to describe how those changes influence patients’ perception of body and self. Methods: This study used a descriptive qualitative approach. A total of 16 participants from three tertiary hospitals in southeast China were recruited through purposive sampling combined with maximum variation strategy. Data were collected through semistructured interviews and analyzed using conventional content analysis method. Results: The following six themes were extracted: (1) “being a constrained person,” (2) “being a flawed person,” (3) “being a disliked person,” (4) “being an alienated person,” (5) “being a reconciled person,” and (6) “being a blessed person.” Conclusion With the diagnosis of IBD and its side effects of treatments, patients’ life changed significantly and they were struggling to reinterpret their body and self. As a result, negative self-evaluations and/ or positive self-evaluations towards themselves generated. Further studies are required to explore the underlying mechanism and related influencing factors about how those different images were produced.
