Objective To explore the effect of nursing of Traditional Chinese Medicine on cognitive function among aged people with mild cognitive impairment in elderly care institution. Methods A total of 66 cases with mild cognitive impairment elderly that previously were screened out from two pension institutions in Taiyuan city as the research objects. According to the endowment institutions where the objects of study dwelled was divided into control group (34 cases) and intervention group (32 cases). The intervention group accepted nursing of Traditional Chinese Medicine plan for four months. The control group received the disease related knowledge health education. The cognitive function of the two groups were assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Scale (MoCA) before and after the intervention. Results Before the intervention, two groups had no statistical significance in each dimension score and total score of MoCA. After the intervention, four dimensions scores including ability of visual spatial and execute , attention , delayed recall , directional force and the total score of the intervention group respectively were (2.67±1.09) points, (4.07±1.08) points, (1.97±0.81) points, (4.83±0.99) points, (18.80±1.74) points while the control group were (2.15 ± 0.71) points, (3.30 ± 0.63) points, (1.39 ± 0.97) points, (4.24 ± 1.41) points, (15.06 ± 2.98) points, and the difference was statistically significant (t=1.91-6.06, P < 0.05 or 0.01) ;Before intervention the language score, delayed recall score and the total score of the intervention group were (1.43±0.77) points, (1.57±1.10) points, (17.27±1.99) points, respectively while after the intervention were (1.80 ± 0.66) points, (1.97 ± 0.81) points, (18.80 ± 1.74) points, there was statistically significant difference (t =-2.16,-2.11,- 4.34, P < 0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions Nursing of Traditional Chinese Medicine can delay the process of cognitive decline of mild cognitive impairment in the elderly, and have a certain effect on prevention and treatment of patients with mild cognitive impairment.

Objective To investigate the status quo of oral nursing in the emergency department of top three hospitals in Shanxi province, and to analyze the existing problems so as to provide the basis and reference for improving the clinical operation standard. Methods In the form of WeChat questionnaire, a questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate 190 nurses who met the requirements in emergency departments of 6 top three hospitals in Shanxi province. Results All the 6 hospitals surveyed did not incorporate oral care into the nurse examination program; 28.42％(73/190) of the subjects had oral assessments of endotracheal intubation according to their clinical experience;chlorhexidine (70.00％,133/190) and physiological saline (65.79％,125/190) were the most commonly used oral care solutions in clinic;48.42％(92/190) of nurses performed this operation for 6-10 min;91.58％(114/190) of nurses believed that oral care played an important role in the recovery of these patients. Conclusions The oral care and oral care of the patients in the emergency department are mostly clinical experience, so it is urgent to establish a unified standard of implementation on the basis of evidence. The professional knowledge of oral nursing of the patients undergoing oral trachea intubation is low, so it is suggested that the training of emergency nurses be strengthened and the operation should be included in the assessment of nursing operations.

Objective To assess the feasibility of low concentration contrast medium (270 mgI/ml) and low radiation dose (100 kV) for enhanced CT scanning in infants and young children abdominal CT examination.Methods Ninety children with abdomen tumors or abdominal injuries who underwent contrast-enhanced CT examination were selected.The patients were divided into 3 groups (each n＝ 30):Group A with tube voltage of 120 kV for non-contrast enhanced and parenchymal phase scanning and iodixanol contrast-medium (320 mgI/ml);group B with tube voltage of 100 kV for non-contrast enhanced and parenchyrnal phase scanning and iodixanol contrast-medium (270 mgI/rnl);group C with tube voltage of 100 kV for non-contrast enhanced and parenchymal phase scanning and iodixanol contrast-medium (270 mgI/ml).The 4-point scale was used to evaluate the quality of parenchymal phase imaging.The standard difference (SD) of CT value in subcutaneous fat,SNR and CNR of liver parenchyma,splenic parenchyma,renal cortical,renal vein,and abdominal aorta were measured at parenchymal phase,and CT dose index of volume (CTDI,ol),dose length product (DLP) and effective dose (ED) were recorded.The data were statistically analyzed among 3 groups.Results There was no significant difference of SNR,CNR nor objective scores of liver parenchyma,splenic parenchyma,renal cortical,renal vein and abdominal aorta among 3 groups (all P＞0.05).The differences of CTDIvol,DLP and ED among 3 groups were statistically significant (all P＜0.01).The CTDIvol had no statistical difference between group B and group C (P ＝ 0.001,0.002),DLP (P ＝ 0.013,0.004) and ED (P ＝ 0.03,＜0.001) of group A had statistical difference with those of group B and C.Conclusion CNR of the abdominal image can be guaranteed using low concentration contrast medium (270 mgI/ml) combined with 100 kV tube voltage for CT scanning of infants and young children,therefore satisfying clinical diagnostic requirements.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and compliance of the 2 year specific immunotherapy in patients with allergic rhinitis. Method:Two hundred and sixty-two patients of allergic rhinitis were treated with SLIT for 2 years. The symptom questionnaire about effectiveness and compliance were obtained 2 years after SLIT. The patient satisfaction was also investigated. Result:Sixty patients had complete compliance and 202 patients had poor compliance. Of the 142 children, 40 (28%) cases had complete compliance, and of the 118 adult patients, 20 cases (17%) had complete compliance. There was obvious difference between the two (P<0.05). Comparing of before and after treatment, total medication score, total nasal symptom score and every symptom score decreased obviously (P<0.05). Two years after treatment, the total effective rate was 63%,there was significant difference between the children group and the adult group (P<0.05). Conclusion:There are a lot of factors affecting the treatment compliance of sublingual immunotherapy, such as patients, family, health care workers and social support, etc. In the course of treatment, a series of strategies can be adopted to improve the treatment compliance. SLIT is an effective method for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, and the treatment effect of children is better.
