Objective:To explore influence of holistic nursing on serum levels of N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) , high sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT ) and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) .Methods:A total of 108 CHF patients treated in our hospital from Jan 2015 to May 2016 were randomly and e‐qually divided into routine nursing group and holistic nursing group (received holistic nursing based on routine nursing group) .Serum levels of NT‐proBNP ,hs‐cTnT and score of Chinese questionnaire of quality of life in patients with cardio‐vascular disease (CQQC) were compared between two groups before and after nursing .Results:There were no significant difference in serum levels of NT‐proBNP and hs‐cTnT and CQQC score between two groups before nursing , P>0.05 all . Compared with before nursing ,after nursing ,there were significant reductions in serum levels of NT‐proBNP and hs‐cTnT , and significant rise in CQQC score in holistic nursing group , P<0.01 all .Compared with routine nursing group after nurs‐ing ,there were significant reductions in serum levels of NT‐proBNP [(2.65 ± 0.53)μg/L vs .(2.07 ± 0.52)μg/L] and hs‐cTnT [ (0.42 ± 0.12)μg/L vs .(0.31 ± 0.09)μg/L] ,and significant rise in CQQC score [ (52.87 ± 9.56) scores vs . (57.43 ± 10.20) scores] in holistic nursing group ,P<0.05 or <0.01. Conclusion:Holistic nursing contributes to reducing serum levels of NT‐proBNP and hs‐cTnT , it can improve cardiac function and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure ,which is worth clinical application and extending .

OBJECTIVE:To prepare boric acid wet compress towelettes and to establish a method for its quality control.METHODS:Wet compress towelettes containing3%of boric acid solution was prepared with absorbent gauze(six layers in thickness)of different specifications as carrier,assaying of boric acid solution adsorbed into the carrier was performed by volumetric analysis.RESULTS:The preparation is smooth in appearance,airtight sealed and its content of boric acid solution was up to standard.CONCLUSION:The preparation is simple in preparative method,stable and controllable in quality.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture plus auricular point sticking in improving tobacco withdrawal symptoms after smoke cessation. Method Forty-eight patients with tobacco withdrawal symptoms were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 24 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture plus auricular point sticking, while the control group was by auricular point sticking. The daily consumption of tobacco, Fagerstrom Test of Nicotine Dependence (FTND), and Self-rating Scale of Tobacco Dependence (SSTD) were observed before and after intervention, and the smoke cessation rate was also compared. Result The smoke cessation rate was 83.3%in the treatment group versus 54.2%in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). After intervention, the daily consumption of tobacco and SSTD score in the treatment group were significantly changed and markedly different from that in the control group (P<0.05). The FTND scores were significantly changed after intervention in both groups (P<0.05). There was a significant difference in comparing the FTND score between the two groups after intervention (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture plus auricular point sticking can improve the tobacco withdrawal symptoms.

Objective To study the correlation between scan orientation and the detectability of rotator cuff injury.Methods Different scan orientations of magnetic resonance imaging of the rotator cuff injury were analyzed in high magnetic field in 103 patients.Results The supraspinatus tendon and signal abnormities were obtained in 103 patients,the infraspinatus tendon and signal abnormities in 53 patients,subscapular tendon and signal abnormities in 18 patients,knolls tendon and signal abnormities in 15 patients.The oblique coronal MR imaging was clearest in supraspinatus tendon,while at the axial images was clearest in infraspinatus tendon.Conclusion Rotator cuff and the surrounding tissue injury could be clearly scanned in high magnetic field,the detectability of rotator cuff injury depended on different scan orientations of magnetic resonance imaging.

Objective To assess the feasibility of ~(18)F-FDG PET/CT for differentiation of malignancy from benign in pericardial Lesions. Methods ~(18)F-FDG PET/CT data of 16 patients with pericardial lesions (9 malignancy, 7 benign) were analyzed using maximum standard uptake values (SUV_(max)) and the density of lesions, the relationship with surrounding tissues were also evaluated. The results of malignancy or benign were proved by needle biopsy.Results SUV_(max) of malignancy (10.1±6.0) and benign (3.0±2.1) was significant different (P<0.01). Taking the optimal cut-off value as SUV_(max) 3.5-4.5, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of differentiation of malignant from benign in pericardial lesions was 100%, 85.71%, 93.75%, 90.00% and 100%, respectively. Conclusion ~(18)F-FDG PET/CT can predict benign or malignance of pericardial lesions with moderate accuracy.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of needling the Chorea Trembling Control Area in treating Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Methods Sixty patients with PD were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 in each group. The treatment group was intervened by needling the Chorea Trembling Control Area plus oral administration of Levodopa and Benserazide Hydrochloride;while the control group was by oral administration of Levodopa and Benserazide Hydrochloride alone. The clinical efficacies were compared after 3 treatment courses. Results After intervention, the Webster scores were significantly changed in both groups (P<0.05). There was a significant difference in comparing Webster score between the two groups after intervention (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 93.0%in the treatment group versus 83.0%in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Acupuncture at the Chorea Trembling Control Area plus medi-cation is an effective method in treating PD.
