Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2017;33(21):1654-1658
Objective To investigate the status of personality, family function and psychological resilience towards employed nurses, and to explore the relationship among personality, family function and psychological resilience. Methods Four instruments were applied to investigate 240 employed nurses from comprehensive Grade 3A hospital of Fujian Province, which were the Characteristics Questionnaire, Family Intimacy Scale (FACEⅡ-CV), Self-resilience Scale and Personality Traits Questionnaire. Results The correlation analysis showed that nurses′ personality traits, family functions and psychological resilience were closely related. The multiple regression and analysis showed that 40%of the variance for employed nurses′psychological resilience could be explained through considering personality dimensions, family cohesion and adaptability. Conclusions Personality, family functions and psychological resilience towards employed nurses are closely related as both internal and external protective factors.

In order to investigate whether Laribacter hongkongensis could be detected in stool samples of Rattus norvegicus in the wild,Rattus norvegicus were trapped alive in an urban community of Guangzhou,China over a period of one year from June 2015 to May 2016,and their stool samples were examined for the presence of L.hongkongensis strains.Isolates were identified based on phenotypic characteristics and 16S rRNA sequence analysis,and were examined for their susceptibility to 19 antimicrobial agents.Further typing of the isolates was performed using multi-loci sequence typing (MLST) analysis.A total of 191 R.norvegicus were trapped alive.L.hongkongensis was identified and successfully isolated from two samples,representing a prevalence of 1.05 %.Although the two isolates possessed similar phenotypic characteristics and have no base difference of 16S rRNA gene,they constituted two new distinct sequence types (STs),ST-163 and ST-164.This is the first report that L.hongkongensis can be detected in the intestinal tract of R.norvegicus.Results suggest that R.norvegicus could serve as carriers of L.hongkongensis and therefore could be another potential source of infection.

Objective:To evaluate one-year efficacy and safety of sirolimus-eluting stent with biodegradable polymer coating (EXCEL stent) in treating patients with coronary artery disease. Methods:One hundred consecutive hospitalized patients with coronary artery diseases exclusively treated with EXCEL stents were prospectively enrolled.After undergoing porcutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) all patients received dual anti-platelet therapy with clopidogrel and aspirin for 6 months and followed by aspirin alone.The primary end point was major adverse cardiac events(MACE) at 12 months.The secondary end points included binary in-stent restenosis rate(ISR)measured by quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) analysis at mean 8 months post the index PCI procedure,and MACE at 30 days and 6 months. Results:All patients were successfully treated with EXCEL stents during PCI procedure.Among all 153 target lesions,127 lesions were type B2/C complex lesions (83.0%).The mean length and diameter of the target lesions were 29.42?15.90 mm and 3.17?0.53 mm,respectively.A total of 211 EXCEL stents were implanted with average stent number of 2.02?1.53 per patient.The mean stent length and diameter were 35.34?17.35 mm and 3.23?0.46 mm,respectively.Four patients (4.0%) reached the primary end point at 12 months,which were 4 target lesion re-PCI due to ISR.No death,MI,or in-stent thrombosis occurred during the 6-month aspirin treatment alone after comleting 6-month dual anti-platelet therapy.QCA analysis of 112 le- sions of 75 patients showed 3.6% (4/112) of in-stent restenosis and 5.4% (6/112) of in-segment restenosis. Conclusions:The initial registry study showed that comparison with the published data from previous pivotal studies of others drug-eluting stents,the EXCEL stent revealed similarly incidence of 12-month ISR and/or MACE for the real world patients with coronary artery disease.The anti-platelet regimen of 6-month clopidogrel treatment after EXCEL implantation was safe.This con- clusion requires further investigation by large scale,multi-center,and longer-term follow-up clinical trials.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a multifunctional biomolecule involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, including regulation of blood vessel dilatation and function as a neurotransmitter. However, a large amount of NO is toxic to the host and causes several diseases such as cardiovascular system diseases, septic shock, and diabetes mellitus. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathway was first identified as a cellular response pathway induced by the accumulation of unfolded proteins in ER to preserve ER functions. Later it was found that ER stress pathway is also activated by various cellular stresses to protect cells, but when stresses are severe, apoptosis is induced to remove damaged cells. It is reported that NO disturbs ER functions, then ER stress-mediated apoptosis pathway is activated. CHOP/GADD153, which belongs to C/EBP transcription factor family, is induced in this process and mediates apoptosis. ER stress pathway induced by NO is involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases.

AIM: To investigate the clinic effect of the femoral neck fracture (FNF) with percutaneous internal fixation of hollow screw Ti-nails. METHODS: A total of 57 patients with closed FNF were recruited from Department of Orthopaedics in the First Mine Hospital of Pingdingshan Coal Group from February 2001 to December 2005. They were treated with 3 hollow screw Ti-nails (produce by Shanghai Qunli Medical Devices Co., Ltd) in 5-mm diameter under C-arm X-ray monitoring after close reduction by hand, punctured with 4-6 bone round nails in 2.5-mm diameter through skin for prefixation. The patients were encouraged to stretch and flex muscles early and perform articular physiological movement. The criteria of outcomes: Excellent: the patients were completely cured in six months after surgery, no pain was found in diseased coxa, the articular movement was normal, and they could walk freely half one year after surgey. Good: The fracture was cured in 9 months lately or no healing, there was a little ache in diseased coxa, the articular movement was limited, and they could walk normally in 10-12 months after surgery and recover slight work. Bad: The fractures were not cured, there were absorption, shifting, and aching in fracture joint early, and they need walk with walking stick. RESULTS: There were 55 cases followed up for 9 months, 51 cases for 18 months, and 57 cases for 42 months.①The curative effect of FNF by internal fixation was excellent in 27 cases, good in 20 cases and bad in 10 cases. ②Host response: 6 patients suffered from fracture shift due to screw-nail displacement, 4 patients got bone un-union, 6 patients experienced femoral head necrosis, and 2 patients got ache at bone fracture and were limited for articulation movement. No infection and rejection happened among 57 patients. CONCLUSION: The treatment of AO cannula Ti-screws internal fixation under closed reduction is effective for FNF, and no abnormal biocompatibility between materials and host appears in the clinical follow-up.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of clonorchiasis of hospital patients in Heilongjiang Province,so as to provide the evidence for formulating the control and prevention strategies. Methods A total of 2 359 suspected patients from human parasitic disease research institute of Harbin medical university were investigated. Total?ly 6 718 stool samples and 2 359 serum samples were tested by Kato?Katz technique and the enzyme linked immune method re?spectively. Meanwhile,the information of the patients was collected by questionnaires. Results Totally 513 suspected patients were infected with Clonorchis sinensis. The infection rate of the suspected patients was higher in the ≥29 group(P<0.05), and the infection rate and positive rate of blood tests of the rural suspected patients were both higher than those of the urban sus?pected patients(both P<0.05). The habit of eating raw fish and shrimp was the risk factor of clonorchiasis. Conclusion Clo?norchiasis is one of the main food?borne parasitic diseases in Heilongjiang Province. The habit of eating raw fish and shrimp is the risk factor of clonorchiasis.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repeated intermittent hypoxia (IH), hypercapnia, sleep fragmentation and intrathoracic pressure change. IH is related to the clinical pathophysiological processes of hypertension, atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, arrhythmia, stroke, heart failure and sudden death. IH from OSA can lead to metabol-ic dysregulation, endothelial dysfunction, systemic inflammation, oxidative stress and the change of nerve body fluids, which has been shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. This study mainly describes the pathogenesis of IH leading to the various cardiovascular diseases.
