Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2016;32(7):507-510
Objective To investigate the application effect of nurse-physician united management model of preventing aspiration in ischemic stroke patients.Methods Eighty-eight ischemic stroke patients were enrolled in Nantong University Affiliated Hospital,Department of Neurology from Jan to Dec 2014.The Watian drinking water test scoring Ⅰ-Ⅱ were considered as control,who were treated by routine diet nursing;The patients with Watian drinking water test score greater than Ⅲ were treated by indwelling gastric tube via nose-stomach.The patients were fed through nasogastric tubes by nurses.The experimental group were treated with nurse-physician united management model.The preventing aspiration score and aspiration rate were measured and observed.Results Before intervention,no significant difference was observed between two groups in US National Institute of Health Stroke Score and Watian drinking water test score (P > 0.05).After admission for seven days,the preventing aspiration score in control group was 32-75 (51.42±7.83)and 65-88 (69.25±6.52)in treatment group,yielding the P value less than 0.01 (t value was 11.62).The accidental aspiration rate in treatment group was 27.50% (11/40) and 2.08% (1/48) in control group,with the P value less than 0.05 (X2=11.97).Conclusions Nurse-physician united management model of preventing aspiration could significantly enhance the awareness of aspiration and decrease the rate of accidental aspiration during admission.

ObjectiveTo investigate the incidence and risk factors in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) at matched gestational age.Methods Data collected by the medical records of neonates from November 2007 to December 2010 in our neonatal database were analyzed.Patients'information was recorded from birth to discharge from NICU.Data included age after birth (hours),gestational age,body weight at birth,treatment,and maternal demographics.The statistical study was carried out by SPSS version 13.0 software.Mann - Whitney U test was used for numerate data.Fisher's exact probability test and Pearson's chi - square test were used to compare quantitative variables between independent groups.P values were considered significant when they were less than 0.05 ( two - sided).ResultsThe incidence of ROP was 5.38%.Gestational age of ROP group and control group was matched ( P =0.387 ),but difference in body weight at birth was significant ( P =0.045 ).Age after birth was significantly different ( P =0.013 ).Apnea and anemia were significantly different between two groups (P < 0.01). The differences in duration of hospitalization,NCPAP and use of antibiotics between two groups were significant ( P < 0.002,0.000 and 0.000,respectively).ROP group differed from control group greatly in hospitalization expenses.Multiple stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that oxygen supplenentation ( P =0.0237 ) and infection ( P =0.0118) were risk factors of ROP. ConclusionsThe incidence of ROP in NICU in Beijing Children's Hospital was 5.38%.Inhalation of oxygen supplementation and infection were risk factors of ROP.
3.Effect of hydrofluoric acid concentration on the surface morphology and bonding effectiveness of lithium disilicate glass ceramics to resin composites.
West China Journal of Stomatology 2017;35(6):593-597
OBJECTIVEThis study aimed at determining the influence of hydrofluoric acid (HF) in varied concentrations on the surface morphology of lithium disilicate glass ceramics and bond durability between resin composites and post-treated lithium disilicate glass ceramics.
METHODSAfter being sintered, ground, and washed, 72 as-prepared specimens of lithium disilicate glass ceramics with dimensions of 11 mm×13 mm×2 mm were randomly divided into three groups. Each group was treated with acid solution [32% phosphoric acid (PA) or 4% or 9.5% HF] for 20 s. Then, four acidified specimens from each group were randomly selected. One of the specimens was used to observe the surface morphology using scanning electron microscopy, and the others were used to observe the surface roughness using a surface roughness meter (including Ra, Rz, and Rmax). After treatment with different acid solutions in each group, 20 samples were further treated with silane coupling agent/resin adhesive/resin cement (Monobond S/Multilink Primer A&B/Multilink N), followed by bonding to a composite resin column (Filtek™ Z350) with a diameter of 3 mm. A total of 20 specimens in each group were randomly divided into two subgroups, which were used for measuring the microshear bond strength, with one of them subjected to cool-thermal cycle for 20 000 times.
RESULTSThe surface roughness (Ra, Rz, and Rmax) of lithium disilicate glass ceramics treated with 4% or 9.5% HF was significantly higher than that of the ceramic treated with PA (P<0.05). The lithium disilicate glass ceramics treated with 9.5% HF also demonstrated better surface roughness (Rz and Rmax) than that of the ceramics treated with 4% HF. Cool-thermal cycle treatment reduced the bond strength of lithium disilicate glass ceramics in all groups (P<0.05). After cool-thermal cycle, the lithium disilicate glass ceramics treated with HF had higher bond strength than that of the ceramics treated with PA. The lithium disilicate glass ceramics treated with 4% HF had higher bond strength than that of the ceramics treated with 9.5% HF (P<0.05). During cool-thermal cycle, the lithium disilicate glass ceramics treated with 4% HF demonstrated higher reduction in bond strength than that of the samples treated with 9.5% HF (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSThe concentration of HF significantly affected the surface morphology of lithium disilicate glass ceramics and the bond durability between resin composites and post-treated lithium disilicate glass ceramics. The bond strength between resin composites and post-treated lithium disilicate glass ceramic was more efficiently maintained by treatment with 9.5% HF.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common and non-lethal urological condition with painful symptoms. The complexity of CP/CPPS’s pathogenesis and lack of efficient etiological diagnosis results in incomplete treatment and recurrent episodes, causing long-term mental and psychological suffering in patients. Recent findings indicate that the autonomic nervous system involves in CP/CPPS, including sensory, sympathetic, parasympathetic, and central nervous systems. Neuro-inflammation and sensitization of sensory nerves lead to persistent inflammation and pain. Sympathetic and parasympathetic alterations affect the cardiovascular and reproductive systems and the development of prostatitis. Central sensitization lowers pain thresholds and increases pelvic pain perception in chronic prostatitis. Therefore, this review summarized the detailed processes and mechanisms of the critical role of the autonomic nervous system in developing CP/CPPS.Furthermore, it describes the neurologically relevant substances and channels or receptors involved in this process, which provides new perspectives for new therapeutic approaches to CP/CPPS.
