Objective To compare the influence of hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) on early outcome of patients underwent kidney transplantation from donation after cardiac death (DCD).Methods Patients admitted in the First People's Hospital of Foshan with DCD kidney transplant from January 1st,2011 to June 30th,2016 were analyzed retrospectively.Recipients were grouped into HD group (n=61) and PD group (n=28) according to their pre-transplant dialysis modality.Their short-term outcomes after DCD kidney transplant were compared,including recovery of renal function,short-term complications and laboratory data.Results Patients had longer dialysis duration and lower hemoglobin,serum albumin and phosphorus in PD group than those in HD group (all P ＜ 0.05),but no significant difference shown in age,gender,body mass index,primary disease,blood pressure,and hepatitis B infection (all P ＞ 0.05).HD patients with 6.00(4.00,11.00) d recovery time of renal function,18.00(17.00,21.50) d hospital time,had 24.59％ the delayed graft function (DGF),3.28％ acute rejection and 16.39％ infection during hospitalization.While for PD patients the recovery time of renal function was 4.00(3.75,7.00) d;hospital time was 19.00(15.00,21.75) d;the incidence rate of DGF was 14.29％;acute rejection was 3.57％;and infection during hospitalization reached 17.86％.Above indexes were not significantly different between HD and PD groups (all P ＞0.05).Repeated measure ments showed that,compared with those before transplant surgery,after 1 month,3 months and 6 months HD and PD groups had decreased creatinine and phosphorus,and increased hemoglobinserum albumin and calcium;Serum albumin and calcium were different between the two groups (P ＜ 0.001,P=0.040),whereas creatinine,hemoglobin and phosphorus did not show difference (all P ＜ 0.05).After transplantation the trends of creatinine,hemoglobin,calcium and phosphorus were not different between the two groups (P values were 0.295,0.310,0.501 and 0.063,respectively).Conclusions No significant difference of the recovery regarding renal function,anemia,nutrition status and mineral metabolites was found between pre-transplant HD and PD modality in patients who underwent DCD kidney transplantations.

Objective To observe the short?term clinical outcomes of kidney transplantation from brain and cardiac death donors (DBCD) and assess its feasibility to expand organ donor pool. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 48 cases of kidney transplantation from DBCD. The transplant recipients had finished 12?month follow?up in the First People's Hospital of Foshan from September 2011 to February 2015, with their renal function, rejection reaction and complications at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after renal transplantation being collected. Survival rates of transplant recipients and transplant kidneys, incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) and its influence for recipients and graft survival were analyzed by statistics. Results In the 48 cases, the survival rates of recipients at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after transplantation were 100.0%, 100.0%, 97.9%, 95.8%, and the survival rates of transplanted kidneys were 95.8%, 95.8%, 93.8%, 91.7%, respectively. DGF occurred in 8 of 48 (17.0%), but the occurrence of DGF did not adversely influence patient's survival (P=0.524) or graft survival (P=0.362). Conclusions The short?term clinical outcomes of kidney transplantation from DBCD are ideal. As the legislation of donation after brain death (DBD) has not been ratified in China, the kidney transplantation from DBCD could be an
important way to solve the shortage of organs, and increase the number of kidneys available for transplantation.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of renal transplantation from donors of donation after brain and cardiac death(DBCD) complicated with acute kidney injury (AKI),and summarize the clinical experience of evaluation and application.Methods The clinical data of the 45 DBCD donors and 80 recipients in the First People's Hospital of Foshan from September 2011 to September 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.DBCD donors were classified into the AKI group (n=26) and non-AKI group (n=19) according to the serum creatinine level and urine output when the donors were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in this hospital.A total of 80 recipients were divided into the AKI group (n=46) and non-AKI group (n=34) correspondingly.The condition of the donors before organ procurement between the two groups was compared,and the incidence of various complications,the 1 years survival rates of recipients and graft after renal transplantation were compared between the two groups.Results Among 45 donors,26 cases(57.8％) suffered from AKI.The serum creatinine of donors was significantly higher in the AKI group than that in the non-AKI group (P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of delayed graft function (DGF) in AKI group and non-AKI group was 21.7％ and 8.8％ respectively (P ＞ 0.05).After 1 years,the serum creatinine of the recipients in AKI group was significantly higher than that in non-AKI group [(134.9±63.4) μmol/L vs (106.6±28.2) μmol/L,P＜ 0.05],but the survival rates of recipients and grafts did no differ between the two groups (both P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The donors combined with AKI do nothave a worse effect on the incidence of DGF,the 1-year survival rates of recipients and grafts after transplantation.So,the donors with AKI for transplantation can widen the origin of kidney grafts.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the reliability and validity of Adversity Quotient Scale in evaluating the adversity quotient among nurses. METHODS: A total of 409 nurses were selected as study subjects from three first-class hospitals in Fujian Province by cluster sampling method. The adversity quotient was investigated by Adversity Quotient Scale and its reliability and validity were tested. RESULTS: The Cronbach′s alpha coefficient, Spearman-Brown coefficient, Guttman Split-Harf coefficient and retest reliability of Adversity Quotient Scale were 0.931, 0.826, 0.823 and 0.940, respectively. The content validity ratio of Adversity Quotient Scale was 0.980. The scores of control, attribution, extension and tolerance factors were positively correlated with the total score of Adversity Quotient Scale(correlation coefficients were 0.813, 0.844, 0.874 and 0.822, respectively, P<0.05). Before model modification, the initial model fitting index of confirmatory factor analysis was χ~2/df=3.72, root mean square residual approximate(RMSEA)=0.09, the overall fitting of the model was not high. After model modification, the combined reliability of control, attribution, extension and tolerance factors were 0.780, 0.796, 0.831 and 0.871, respectively. The fitting index of the modified model was χ~2/df=3.08, RMSEA=0.07, showing a good fitting of the model. CONCLUSION: Adversity Quotient Scale has a good reliability and validity in the assessment of nurses, which can be a reliable and effective adversity quotient assessment tool.
