Objective To investigate the occupational exposures to skin injuries among undergraduate nursing students and analyze the causes,so as to provide advices for the standardized pre-service education of occupational protection.Methods To survey 260 students by simple sampling method using self-made questionnaire retrospectively at the end of the internship.The factors influencing skin injuries were analyzed.Results A total of 238 effective questionnaires were obtained.There were 96.64％ (230/238) practice students suffered skin injuries,the incidence rate was higher at the initial phase.The injuries-risk factors were using hollow needles and glass ampoule,dispensing and back to the set of the needle cap.The preventive measures which the students executed were squeezing out blood,washing with flowing water and sterilizing with iodine and alcohol.Only 58.47％ (473/809) students checked the reports of patients.Most of them were lack of the preventive awareness.Conclusions This study demonstrated that skin injuries occurred frequently among undergraduate nursing students of bachelor degree and their knowledge level about precautions was low.The standard education of pre-service occupational prevention,the occupational exposure post-processing and the reporting system were very necessary.

Aging is a biological process and state characterized by morphological change, hypofunction and metabolic disorder, often accompanied by severe degenerative diseases, including amyotrophy, atherosclerosis, neurodegeneration, and so on. Age-related diseases not only decrease the life quality of the elderly, but also impose great burden on family and society. As population aging, we are increasingly coming to realize that the longevity we want should be healthy aging but not simple increase of lifespan. By researching on the yeast, C. elegans, drosophila, mice and humans, we get to know the mechanisms of aging and methods for anti-aging, such as dietary restriction and use of anti-aging drugs like rapamycin. In this review, we summarized mainly the studies on mechanisms of aging and elaborate associated anti-aging strategies and underlying mechanisms.

Objective To investigate the alteration of left atrial(LA) electromechanical characteristics of patients with hypertensivon and patients with hypertension complicated with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation(PAF). Methods By use of two-dimentional echocardiography and Doppler and tissue Doppler imaging(TDI) techniques,we mensurated and calculated the indexes representing LA structure and systolic and diastolic function and electromechanical characteristics in 30 nornal subjects(group1),25 patients with hypertension lasting less than ten years(group2),24 patients with hypertension lasting more than ten years(group3) and patients with hypertension complicated PAF(group4). Indexes representing LA electromechanical characteristics consisted of the difference in time intervals between the QRS onset and the tricuspid A wave,and the QRS onset and the mitral A wave (DQAT),electromechanical time (P-A),electromechanical time dispersion(P-Ad),the maximum P wave duration,the minimum P wave duration,and P wave dispersion (Pd=Pmax-Pmin) calculated from 12-lead surface electrocardiograms. Results The P-A3 in group 4 was much longer than that in group 1,group 2 and group 3. The P-Ad2 in group 4 was much longer than that in group 1,group 2 and group 3.Conclusion There are prolonged P-A3 and P-Ad2 in patients with hypertension complicated PAF. Some indexes,such as P-A3 and P-Ad2,perhaps can predict the onset of PAF in patients with essential hypertension better.

Objective:Pathological nipple discharge (PND) is commonly associated with benign breast disorders. However, PND lesions can also be malignant and can be the initial or unique presenting symptom of breast cancer. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the clinical factors and the character of PND lesions. Methods:The clinical data of 207 patients with PND as their primary complaint were retrospectively analyzed. Results:Univariate analysis showed that the risk factors for breast cancer usually increase in patients with PND accompanied by a breast lump or breast calcification or those aged over 50 (P<0.05). The characteristics and course of PND were not correlated with the diagnoses of benign and malignant degrees of PND (P>0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that patients aged over 50 with PND accompanied by a breast lump or breast calcification have a higher risk of suffering from breast cancer. Conclusion:The ages of patients with PND accompanied by a breast lump or breast calcification may significantly affect the diagnosis of benign and malignant PND lesions.

Objective To compare the impact of conventional vs. zero-balanced ultrafiltration on serum pro-inflammatory factors,acute kidney injury and clinical prognosis after cardio-pulmonary bypass procedure. Methods Forty patients receiving cardiac surgery under cardio-pulmonary bypass procedures in Xiangyang Central Hospital during January 2013 to June 2013 were randomly divided into conventional ultrafiltration group(group A,n=20)and zero-balanced ultrafiltration group(group B,n=20). Blood and urine samples were collected on different time points( pre-operation,T0;pre-ultrafiltration,T1;immediately after ultrafiltration,T2;24 hours post-operation,T3;48 hours post-operation,T4;7 days post-operation, T5). TNF-α,IL-6,KIM-1,CysC,serum creatinine and urea nitrogen were detected and compared. Pre-and post-operative clinical data were also collected. Results There was no difference in baseline data or intra-operative data(p>0. 05). TNF-αand IL-6 started to increase when the operation began. Compared with conventional ultrafiltration,zero-balanced ultrafiltration alleviated the increase of TNF-α and IL-6,espe-cially on T2,T3,and T4(p<0. 05). Zero-balanced ultrafiltration also decreased CysC,Rbp,serum creati-nine and urea nitrogen on T2,T3,and T4 compared with conventional ultrafiltration(p<0. 05). A total of 11 patients experienced AKI( >grade I)in group A and 2 patients experienced in group B(p<0. 01). There were significant differences of ventilation time,total complication incidence and ICU stay time be-tween two groups. There was no difference in other complications,post-operative days in hospital or death rate within 30 days. Conclusion Though there is a trend of more patients receving renal replacement therapy,no statistical difference has been achieved. In conclusion,zero-balanced ultrafiltration can effec-tively decrease the concentration of serum pro-inflammatory factors,alleviate acute kidney injury and improve the clinical prognosis after cardio-pulmonary bypass procedures. It is a safe and reliable method valuable for promotion.
