The curriculum,as the core of school education,is the intermediary of turning educational thoughts,ideas,purposes and aims into concrete educational practice.Therefore,the key question of the reform of nursing education is the reform of its curriculum which should accord with the principles of sticking to humanism,stressing the characteristics of nursing speciality,strengthening the training objectives and paying attention to the fostering of the students qualities and abilities.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS), summarize the clinical experience, and improve the awareness,diagnosis and treatment level of CVS.Methods The clinical data and results of long-term follow-up of the children with CVS were collected and analyzed from 1995 to 2009 in our department.Results Forty-six children were enrolled in the study, including 22 boys and 24 girls.Mean onset age was 4.5 years(ranged from 1 to 11 years)and the mean age at final diagnosis was 8.5 years (ranged from 4.5 to 14.5 years).Sixty-six and seventy-four percent of patients had family history of migraine and motional sickness respectively,whereas 83% patients had triggers.The clinical manifestation of CVS was severe episodic vomiting.The episodes had a rapid onset and sudden ending,persisted for several hours to days,and were separated by symptom-free intervals.The incidental symptoms were pallor, lethargy,intractable nausea,abdominal pain,headache,photophobia and dizzy.Twenty-nine patients diagnosed were followed up for 5 years at average.Five patients were treated with valproate,4 with cyproheptadine, 5 with cyproheptadine and valproate,5 with amitriptyline,cyprohep tadine and valproate,and 3 with cyproheptadine and flunarizine.All treated patients recovered mean 10 months(1.5 months to 2 years) years later and displayed the reduced number of episodes or the severity of episodes except 3 patients.Twenty-eight percent (8/29) of patients progressed to migraine headaches.Conclusion CVS is a relatively common disease in children and awareness of the condition should be increased.CVS should be considered when patients had recurrent vomitting and were completely healthy between the two episodes after excluding other pathological conditions.

Objective:To investigate the effect of TNF-αand IFN-γon NIT-1 cells apoptosis and the apoptosis mechan-ism.Methods:NIT-1 cells were exposed to a combination of TNF-αand IFN-γtreatment.The viability of NIT-1 cells was assessed via MTT assay.The morphological changes of the cells and nuclei were observed under the inverted or confocal laser scanning microscope with Hoechst 33258 staining.The activation of Caspase-8,-3 and PARP was detected by Western blot.Results:TNF-αand IFN-γsig-nificantly inhibited NIT-1 cells viability, promoted cells apoptosis, induced the activation of Caspase-8,-3 and PARP cleavage.Conclusion:TNF-αcombined with IFN-γtreatment induced the apoptosis of NIT-1 cells through death receptor pathway.

Objective To investigate the cognition and attitude toward integrating old-age care with medical services among the elderly,nurses from medical institutions and old-age care institution staffs,in order to provide references for developing implementation strategies of integrating old-age care with medical service.Methods The convenience sampling method was conducted,and 963 people.from 4 cities in Henan Province were enrolled in this survey from July to September 2016,including 599 elderly people,248 nurses from medical institutions and 166 old-age care institution staffs.All volunteers were investigated by using self-designed questionnaires.Results A total of 1 000 questionnaires were distributed,and 963 valid questionnaires were retrieved.The effective recovery rate was 96.3％.The cognition of integrating old-age care with medical service in all volunteers was low.There were differences in the needs of all nursing care services in the integrative old-age care and medical services,the needs of Chinese traditional medical care services were low.The highest demand of service capabilities was skills of coping urgent issues,while the lowest demand of service capabilities was education levels of care givers;the scores on evaluation of the two demands in the elderly were (4.803± 0.453) and (3.124± 1.246) points,those in the old-age care institution staffs were (4.819±0.468) and (2.698± 1.346) points,there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion In the progress of promoting the integration of old-age care and medical services,it is necessary pay more attention on the promotion among non-urban elderly people,and improving living facilities as well as the quality of care services.Integrated management and hierarchical training for nursing professionals and old-age care institutions staffs should be carried out gradually.

To compare the efficacy, safety and economic cost of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided puncture sclerotherapy and laparoscopic decapitation decompression for the renal cysts in the upper pole, data of patients with renal cysts in the upper pole who received EUS-guided puncture sclerotherapy (the EUS group, n=9) or laparoscopic decapitation decompression (the laparoscopy group, n=16) in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2021 to August 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. The effective rate, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, incidence of complications, hospital stay and treatment cost of the EUS group and the laparoscopy group were compared. Results showed that the effective rate was comparable in the EUS group and laparoscopy group (9/9 VS 14/16, P=0.520). The operation time was shorter (29.8±4.8 min VS 70.1±11.1 min, t=10.207, P<0.001), intraoperative blood loss less (0 mL VS 26.1±5.9 mL, t=13.089, P<0.001), postoperative hospital stay shorter (3.5±0.7 days VS 5.4±2.0 days, t=2.663, P=0.014), and total cost lower (10 547.85±2 388.19 yuan VS 15 316.09±5 352.45 yuan, t=2.517, P=0.019) in the EUS group compared with those in the laparoscopy group. There was no significant difference in the total hospital stay (8.1±2.0 days VS 9.3±3.1 days, t=1.019, P=0.319) or operation cost (3 946.79±490.82 yuan VS 3 860.18±857.42 yuan, t=-0.277, P=0.784) between the EUS group and laparoscopy group. There was 1 case of puncture bleeding, 1 case of hematuria, and 1 case of lumbago in the laparoscopy group, while no complication occurred in the EUS group. In conclusion, it is preliminarily believed that EUS-guided puncture sclerotherapy for renal cysts in the upper pole has similar clinical effects with higher safety, shorter postoperative hospital stay and lower total hospitalization cost compared with those of laparoscopic decapitation decompression, which is worth of clinical promotion.
