Objective To know the impact of nursing intervention mode of parent-child interactive on the adaption of postpartum family roles.Methods One hundred families (maternal,husbands,baby at birth) were divided into the intervention group and the control group.The intervention group was cared by the responsibility nurses who were trained to master the parent-child interactive nursing intervention.The control group was cared by conventional nursing methods.The role adaptation of the fathers and the mothers of the two groups,and self-confidence of the parents to take care of newborns were observed.Results In the intervention group,the role adaptation of the fathers and the mothers was better than the control group; self-confidence of taking care of the newborn was better than the control group.The sleep time of the newborns was prolonged and the crying times were less than the control group.Conclusions The parent-child interactive nursing intervention model can help the family to adapt to the father and the mother role as soon as possible; teach the parents to comprehensively understand newborns,give stimulation of touch,sight,hearing,smell,so as to achieve positive response of newborns and increase the confidence of rearing newborns of the parents.

Objective To provide an effective basis for clinical control methods of multi-drug-resistant bacterial (MDRB) infections by analyzing the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of MDRB.Methods The French Merieux ATB Expression Automated Analysis System was used for bacterial identification,whereas a drug susceptibility testing was performed by K-B methods.Drug-resistance rate was calculated,and the predisposing factors were analyzed.Results Altogether 811(8.1％) strains were isolated from 9 954 specimens,and the majority of multiply antimircobial-resistant bacteria were Escherichia coli,Coagulase-negative staphylococci,Klebsiella Pneumoniae Staphylococcus aureus,Acinetobacter Baumannii,Pseudommonas aeruginosa,whereas the last two appeared pan resistant strains.Specimen source was mainly from respiratory specimens,accounted for 47.8％,and was mainly distributed in the ICU unit,atout41.8％ ;MDRB enterobacter was highly sensitive to Carbapenems with resistance rates less than 1.5％ and to Amikacin and other inhibitor drugs that rate was less than 30.0％.The resistance rates of MDRB nonfermentative bacteria was ＞ 77.0％ to Carbapenem antibacterial drugs whereas to non-resistance was found to polymyxin and only 20.0％ resistance rate to Cefoperazone/sulbactam.MDRB staphylococcus was 100.0％ sensitive to Vancomyci,Teicoplanin and Linezolid and less sensitive (＜ 30.0％) to chloramphenicol and rifampicin.MDRB showed high resistance rate to other antibacterial drugs.The predisposing factors included age,other disease,hospitalization over two weeks,the usage of multiply antimicrobial especially cephalosporins overtoppinh 7 days,and invasive operations.Conclusion The major MDRBs are resistant to common-used antimicrobial drugs.It is nesessary to pay attention to the differences.

Objective To evaluate the values of CD64 expression in diagnosis of infected patients referred to intensive care unit.Method Sixty febrile children referred to the hospital intensive care unit from 2009.11 to 2010.03 were enrolled for a retrospective study.Fever was defined as a body temperature reaching 38℃ or higher with specifically bacterial infection or highly suspected with bacterial infection or viral infection.There were 28 patients with bacterial infection and 32 with viral infection.The non-infectious diseases such as juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and Kawasaki disease were excluded.The controls were 50 healthy children asking for physical examination.On admission,CD64 were measured by using flow cytometry,and blood routine examination,ESR,PCT,blood cultures and sputum cultures were simultaneously detected in all febrile patients.Data were statistically analyzed by using SAS 16.0 software.Data are given as means±SE.Categorical variables were analyzed using X2 test and continuous variables were compared by applying paired 1-tailed t test,Significance level was set at less than 0.05.Results of them,57.1%bacterial infection patients and 71.9%viral infection patients contracted pneumonia.CD64 in bacterial infection patients、viral infection patients and the subjects of control group were(12.6±9.7),(5.4±2.42)and (2.9±0.77),respectively.The CD64 in the bacterial infection patients were significantly higher than those in the virus infection patients(F=11.002,P=0.004).Conclusions CD64 in infected children referred to a hospital intensive care unit can be clearly distinguished between bacterial infections and viral infections, providing an important guidance and a flexible strategy for clinical treatment and determine the timing of withdrawal.

Objective To evaluate the change of left atrial(LA) volume and function in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) after catheter ablation using real-time tri-plane echocardiography (RT-3PE) as well as quantitative tissue velocity imaging (QTVI).Methods Eighty-two PAF patients underwent first-time RFCA were included.Routine and tri-plane ultrasound images of 1 week before and 1 month,3 months,6 months after RFCA were stored for offline analysis.A range of LA structural and functional parameters were measured off-line using the EchoPAC workstation,including LA anteroposterior diameter (LADap),LA mediolateral diameter (LADml) and LA superior-infra diameter (LADsi),early and late diastolic transmitral flow velocity and ratio (E,A and E/A),the peak velocity of pulmonary vein and ratio (S,D,Ar,S/D),the maximum volume of the left atrium (LAVmax),the volume before LA active contraction obtained at time of the P wave on the surface electrocardiogram(LAVp),the minimum volume of the left atrium (LAVmin),LA passive emptying fraction (LAPEF),LA active emptying fraction (LAAEF),LA total emptying fraction (LATEF),LA expansion index (LAexpI),average peak velocity of six wall of the left atrium (Vs,Ve,Va).Results After 3,6 months,LADap decreased significantly(P ＜ 0.05) ;3 months of follow up,peak A increased,E/A ratio decreased (P ＜0.05);6 months of follow up,peak A increased,E/A ratio reduced,peak S increased,peak D reduced,S/D increased(P ＜0.05) ;3 months of follow up,LAVmin reduced,LAAEF and LATEF increased (P ＜0.05);6 months of follow up,LA volume decreased,LAAEF and LATEF increased (P ＜0.05);3,6 months of follow up,the average Va increased(P ＜0.05).Conclusions LA reconstitution and function were recovering slowly 1 month after RFCA,and noticeable improvement can be observed 3 and 6 months after RFCA.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of hospitalized patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region,and to characterize the epidemiology of SLE.Methods The data of 184 patients admitted to Ningxia Medical College Hospital during January 2008 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.The data analysis included the initial symptoms,system involvement and clinical situations.Chi-square test,t test,Mann-Whitney U test and Logistic analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results ① The ratio of male and female was 1∶9.8.The most common clinical symptoms was rash in 72 cases (39％),and followed by joint pain in 61 cases (33％),swelling in 28 cases (15％) and fatigue in 21 cases (11％).② Eighteen percent (33/184) patients were late-onset SLE patients.Compared with regular SLE patients,the interval was longer in late-onset SLE patients between clinical symptoms onset and the time when they saw the doctor.③ Blood and kidney were the most commonly affected organs.④ The highest diagnosis rate occurred in rheumatology department,the highest diagnosis rate occurred in the kidney department for patients with dropsy as starting symptom.Conclusion SLE primarily occurs in childbearing aged women.The reason of misdiagnosis of SLE is mainly due to the incorrect hospital selection for the first visit.Delayed diagnosis will lead to delay in the treatment.

Objective To investigate the short term effect of insulin on proinsulin gene expression of HIT-T15 insu-linnoma cells(pancreatic isletβ-cell). Methods The HIT-T15 cells were randomly divided into four groups.Blank Con-trol Group (LG):complete medium contain 1.4 mmol/L glucose. Control group (LGC):co-cultured nifedipine with medium in order to restain endogenous insulin release. Experimental group (LINS or HINS) add 0.5 U/L insulin or 5 U/L insulin on top of LGC. After being stimulated for 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 mins, proinsulin (PI) mRNA level were assessed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Insulin receptor substrate1 (IRS1) tyrosine phosphorylation was detected by immunocytochemistry. Results (1) Expression of PI was up regulated by both LINS and HINS, and peak at 60 mins. (2) After stimulation for 30 mins, the level of IRS1 tyrosine phosphorylation in the experimental group was significantly higher than control group, and the peak time be-tween LINS and HINS was different. (3) Between group of LG and LGC, the expression of PI mRNA and IRS1 tyrosine phos-phorylation show no difference. Conclusion Short term exogenous insulin stimulation can promote expression of proinsulin genes,which is concentration dependent. The expression and regulation of PI were related with IRS1 signal transduction.
