Objective To analyze the occurrence of sharp injuries among health care workers(HCWs),and put forward suggestions for safety management of sharp inj uries.Methods Recorded form of sharp inj uries reported in a hospital in August 2006-July 2015 were analyzed retrospectively,relevant data were analyzed statistically.Results A total of 211 sharp injuries occurred among HCWs were reported,sharp injuries mainly occurred among nurses(n=118,55.92%)and doctors(n=83,39.34%);117(55.45%)sharp injuries occurred in HCWS whose length of service was≤5 years;the main occurrence locations of sharp injuries were surgical ward(n=67,31.75%),internal medicine ward(n=65,30.81%),and outpatient as well as emergency departments(n=33,15.64%);the main de-vices causing sharp injuries were syringe needle(n=91,43.13%),suture needle(n=34,16.11%),and scalp nee-dle/transfusion needle(n=27,12.80%);the main injury-related manipulations were all types of injection(n=40, 18.95%),intravenous transfusion (n=38,18.00%),and surgical suturing/cutting (n=36,17.06%).The main opportunities of injuries was during manipulation(treatment,examination,operation,n=109,51.66%).Among bloodborne pathogens contaminated devices,contaminated by HBV,HCV,and HIV were 95 (76.61%),25 (20.16%),and 4 cases(3.23%)respectively.There was no bloodborne pathogen infection occurred.155(73.46%) of 211 HCWs were inoculated hepatitis B vaccine.Conclusion Prevention of sharp injuries should be focused on nurses and doctors who work for≤5 years,HCWs in surgical ward,internal medicine ward,and outpatient as well as emergency departments.Prevention of sharp inj uries during manipulations such as inj ection,intravenous transfu-sion,suturing/cutting should be intensified.Related hospital departments should improve the reporting process and intensify follow-up.

Objective To evaluate the impact of triglyceride(TG) on the severity and the extent of coronary artery stenosis.Methods Ninety-three cases of young patients(below 45 years old, with or without hypertriglyeeridemia)underwent pereutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into three groups according to TG levels:I group(TG<1.70 mmol/L,36 cases),II group(1.70 mmol/L≤TG≤2.25 mmol/L,19 cases),III group(TG>2.25 mmol/L,38 cases).The severity of coronary artery stenosis and the extent Was compared among the three groups.Results In all patients, the male and the smoker occupied the overwhelming majority[94.62%(88/93),83.87%(78/93)].Total cholesterol(TC),non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)in III group were higher than those in I group with statistical significance(P=0.006,0.003).There were no significant difference among the three groups in low density lipopmtein cholesterol(LDL-C),HDL-C,fasting blood glncose(P=0.648,0.795,0.247).There were no significant difference among the three groups in extent of coronary artery and severity of coronary artery stenosis(P=0.241,0.879).Conclusions There is no significant difference among the three groups in severity of coronary artery stenosis and extent of coronary artery.Hypertriglyeeridemia ian't the determiner on severity of coronary heart disease.

Alzheimers disease (AD) is a progressively and retrogressively neurodegenerative disorder characterized by two hallmarks: senile plaques (SP) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). The studies of animal models, which are crucial to the further study of AD, will promote the understanding of the etiology, mechanisms and medicine screening. Although the animal models such as experimental injury, normal aging and compound types could represent the cognitive deficit, they lack the essential neuropathological characteristics of AD. Senescence accelerated mouse / prone 8 is one of relatively practical and stable models. The most enchanting focus of AD models is transgenic mice that provide new carriers for the research of pathogenic forms of specific genes and metabolites thereof in vivo. As therapies of AD evolve from symptomatic treatment to causative treatment,so must the animal models of AD.

Objective To investigate the risk of myocardial damage induced by obstructive sleep apneahypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) in children. Methods Twenty-three children who were in-hospital patients and diagnosed as adenoidal hypertrophy or palatine tonsil hypertrophy enrolled in the study as cases,among whom 15cases were affected by OSAHS (OSAHS group) ,and 8 cases were not affected by OSAHS( no-OSAHS group).Twenty-seven healthy children from health physical examination were enrolled as controls (control group).Chemiluminescence was used to detect the value of Troponin Ⅰ (TnⅠ) in all children, and the values of the three groups were compared. Results In the OSAHS group, TnⅠ was (0. 022 ± 0. 009) μg/L;in the non-OSAHS group, TnⅠ was (0.035 ± 0.012) μg/L;in the control group,TnⅠ was (0.017 ± 0.015) μg/L. There were significant difference among the three groups ( F = 8. 369, P = 0. 001 ). Furthermore, compared with the control group,TnI in the OSAHS was significantly higher( P ＜ 0. 001 ). Conclusion Children with adenoid or tonsil hypertrophy associated with OSAHS in children were found to have myocardial damage compared to healthy children, whereas similar on myocardial damage to children with adenoid and tonsil hypertrophy but not OSAHS.

0.05),but the duration of the peaking period, the time for improving one grade, the time for reaching 2 grade, and the hospitalization was significantly shorter in patients treated with steroid than without steroid(P0.05). (3) The major side effects included Cushing's reaction and the infection of the upper respiratory tract.Conclusion Steroids can quicken the recovery of GBS, and shortened average hospitalization in patients with GBS, but steroid doesn't alter the incidence rate of the sequel and the severity of the disability at 1 year in the course.It has no side reaction to use steroid reasonably.

Objective To ascertain serum inflammatory markers could be modified following treatment of periodontal disease in elderly patients. Methods The probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (AL), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined. And then fifty-two elderly periodontitis patients underwent a standard phase of non-surgical periodontitis treatment (consisting of oral hygiene instructions and subgingival scaling and root planning). After three and six months, PD, AL, CRP and IL-6 were determined again and compared to the baseline. Results Six months after treatment, significant reductions in PD [(5.9±1.1) mm vs. (6.8±1.0) mm, P＜0.05], AL [(1.3±0.9) mm vs.(8.4±1.1) mm, P＜0.05], CRP [(1.5±0.2) mg/L vs. (2.0±0.3) mg/L, P＜0.01] and IL-6 [(1.6±0.5) ng/L vs. (1.9±0.4) ng/L, P＜0.05] were observed. Conclusions Treatment of chronic periodontitis can decrease the levels of serum inflammatory markers in elderly patients.

Objective To explore the safety and clinical efficacy of the purse string suture stitched in gastric wall of anastomotic stoma for intrathoracic esophagogastric apparatus anastomosis.Methods The clinical data of 238 patients with thoracic esophageal carcinoma and 24 patients with carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction received intrathoracic apparatus anastomosis at the Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2008 to December 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 122 patients received conventional intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis (conventional group) and 140 patients received purse string suture stitched in gastric wall of anastomotic stoma before intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis (improvement group).The incidences of anastomotic fistula and stenosis of the 2 groups were compared.All data were anlayzed using the t test,chisquare test or Fisher exact probability.Results There were no significant differences in the operation time,intraoperative blood loss,volume of drainage of peritoneal effusion within 24 hours after operation,postoperative hospital stay and postoperative pTNM staging between the 2 groups (t =0.410,0.798,0.634,0.362,x2=0.605,P ＞ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the anastomotic location,stapler type,the weight of stapler esophageal end tissue between the 2 groups (x2 =0.118,0.221,t =0.459,P ＞ 0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidences of pulmonary complication,arrhythmia and mortality between the 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).The weight of stapler stomach end tissue in the improvement group was significantly greater than that of the conventional group,while the incidences of postoperative anastomotic fistula and stenosis of the improvement group were significantly lower than those of the conventional group (t =13.856,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The purse string suture stitched in gastric wall of anastomotic stoma for intrathoracic esophagogastric apparatus anastomosis is simple and safe,and could effectively reduce the rate of anastomotic fistula and stenosis.
