Objective To investigate the clinical effect and nursing methods of bilevel positive air-way pressure(BiPAP)ventilation in patients with neurogenic pulmonary edema(NPE).Methods Totally 11 NPE patients from January 2004 to December 2007 were enrolled.Ventilation support adopted specific invasive BiPAP mode of Puritan-Bennett840.Aiway pressure release ventilation(APRV)tactics was ap- plied in this mode.The blood oxygen saturation rote(SpO2),acidity-alkalinity(pH),arterial oxygen pres-sure(PaO2),arterial carbon dioxide pressure(PaCO2)were analyzed and compared between synchronized intemittent mandatory ventilation(SIMV)mede2 h and 24 h after BiPAP ventilation.Results Among,arterial blood gas analysis of 11 patients,SpO2 and PaO2 were obviously ameliorated after BiPAP ventilation compared with SIMV ventilation.No side-effect occurred.Conclusions The application of invasive Bi- PAP ventilation support in NPE patients proved to be a fast and effective method.

Objective To explore the role of problem-based learning(PBL) nursing ward round on critical thinking capacity of nurses from surgical departments. Methods All nurses from surgical depart-ments were randomly divided into the experimental group(86 nurses) and the control group(85 nurses) by drawing lots. Objects from the experimental group received PBL nursing ward round training twice a week for 8 months, while those from the control group used the traditional nursing ward round training. The influ-ence of the different teaching methods on the critical thinking capacity of the nurses was assessed before and after the training, using critical thinking disposition inventory-Chinese version (CTDI-CV). Results Total critical thinking capacity was improved significantly in the experimental group after the training. All sorts of critical thinking characteristics were strengthened in different degree. Conclusions PBL nursing ward round training can effectively facilitate the critical thinking capacity of surgical nurses.

Objective To explore the relationships of quality of life ( QOL ) and functional status in patients with malignant bone tumors after operation. Methods European organization for research and treatment of cancer quality of life questionnaire C30 (EORTC-QLQ-C30), social support revalued scale (SSRS) and Karnofsky performance scale (KPS) were used to investigate the levels of QOL, social support and functional status. The correlations between them were explored. Results The overall score by QOL was (58.33 ± 18.94). The score by KPS was positively related to somatic function, role function, social function, and general health status (P<0.01), but negatively related to tiredness, pains, insomnia and financial burden (P<0.01). Conclusions The QOL in patients with malignant bone tumors after operation is at a lower level and the function is at a medium level. Nurses should assess the function and make out interventional measures for them so as to improve their QOL.

Objective To evaluate the effect of continuity of health education model for patients undergoing bone cancer during the first chemotherapy.Methods This model was designed based on KAP(Knowledge,Attitude or Belief,Practice) theory,literature review and questionnaire and performed in 103 bone cancer patients during the first chemotherapy.Results All the patients were assessed,with the founding that the pass rate of knowledge test,treatment compliance and degree of satisfaction were increased significantly(all P<0.05).Conclusions The health education model could help patients learn knowledge about bone cancer,build health behavior and deal with complications.Additionally,it improves the pass rate of knowledge test,satisfaction, and compliance.

Objective To measure the diameter of cochlear nerve(CN) in normal hearing children with different ages,and evaluate the diameter variations with age.Methods A total of 156 normal-hearing children were assessed with 3D-FIESTA sequence scanning of the inner ear.All the subjects were divided into 13 groups according to age,witha group of ≤6 months,a group of ≤1 year,and 11 groups from one year to 12 years.Each group had 12 cases,including 6 boys and 6 girls.The diameter of CN was measured at the entrance of the cochlea,the middle of internal auditory canal(IAC) and the fundus of IAC respectively on the axial and oblique sagittal images of 3.0 T MRI by two independent observers.The average values measured by them were the final results.The intraclass correlation coefficient was used to determine the consistency between the two independent observers.The t test was used to access differencesin CN diameter by sex and sides.One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) and two-way ANOVA were used for comparisons among different groups.Spearman correlation coefficient was applied to find a correlation between the CN diameter and age.Results The diameters of normal-hearing children's CN at the middle of the IAC,IAC fundus and the entrance of the cochlea were (1.12 ± 0.08),(1.05 ± 0.06),(0.87 ± 0.14) mm respectively,and there was significant difference among the three measuring points (F=527.57,P＜0.05).The diameters of the CN had no significant differenc (P＞0.05) in age-groups,gender and sides(P＞0.05),and there was no correlation between the diameters of normal children's CN and age.Conclusions The diameters of normal-hearing children's CN change with different points of the IAC,of which the maximum value is at the middle of the IAC,followed by the IAC fundus,and the entrance of the cochlea is at the minimum,more over the normal size doesn't change with age.

Objective: To investigate the effects of scleral crosslinking using genipin on ocular biological parameters and scleral biomechanics of form-deprivation myopia rabbits. Methods: Sixty healthy New Zealand rabbits of 14 days old were collected.The right eyes were selected as experimental eye.The rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: control group with no treatment; myopia model group with eyelid suture procedure performed on the right eye; genipin injection group with eyelid suture procedure performed on the right eye combined with subconjunctival injection of genipin.The suture was removed 60 days after the eyelid suture procedure.The diopter, length of vitreous cavity, and axial length were measured.The sclera at 1: 00 and 7: 00 position of the experimental eye was used to make a scleral strip.The thickness, elastic modulus, creep rate, ultimate stress and ultimate strain of the sclera were measured.This study was approved by the animal experimental Ethics Committee of Bethune International Peace Hospital (2018-ky-09). Results: The diopters of genipin injection group, myopia model group and control group were (2.50±1.38), (0.33±0.52) and (2.08±0.52)D, respectively, the axial lengths of the three groups were (15.33±0.82), (15.83±0.41) and (15.00±0.43)mm, respectively; the changes in vitreous cavity lengths were (1.50±0.79), (2.59±0.83) and (1.48±0.66)mm, respectively; and the ratios of vitreous cavity length to axial length were 0.46±0.02, 0.51±0.02 and 0.47±0.02, respectively.The diopter in myopia model group was significantly lower than those in control group and genipin injection group, the axial length in myopia model group was significantly longer than that in control group, the change in vitreous cavity lengths and ratio of vitreous cavity length to axial length in myopia model group were significantly higher than those in control group and genipin injection group, the axial length in myopia model group was significantly longer than that in control group, the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). The elasticity modulus was (9.10±3.12)MPa and ultimate stress was (1.42±0.57)MPa in genipin injection group, which were significantly higher than (6.98±3.30)MPa and (1.15±0.57)MPa in control group, and (6.25±3.17)MPa and (0.82±0.38)MPa in myopia model group (all at P<0.05). The ultimate strain was (20.99±5.60)% in genipin injection group, which was significantly lower than (25.08±6.35)% in control group and (27.78±8.20)% in myopia model group, with significant differences between them (both at P<0.05). Conclusions Posterior sub-Tenon capsule injection of genipin for collagen crosslinking in the sclera increases the biomechanical strength of sclera and effectively prevents the development of form-deprivation myopia in rabbits, which provides a new idea for the prevention and treatment of myopia in the future.

Objective To observe the effects of penetrance,different time of onset and mutation sites on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular thickness in patients with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON).Methods This was a cross-sectional observational study.A total of 88 patients with LHON and 1492 relatives of the maternal relatives (gene carriers) who received treatment in People's Liberation Army General Hospital from 2015 to 2017 were included in the study.Among the 1492 family members,there were 694 males and 798 females.Peripheral venous blood was extracted from all subjects for mitochondrial DNA testing,and penetrance was calculated.A total of 117 patients underwent BCVA and SD-OCT examinations,including 82 patients and 35 gene carriers.The BCVA examination was performed using the Snellen visual acuity chart,which was converted into logMAR visual acuity.The thickness of RNFL,ganglion cell complex (GCC) and inner limiting membrane (ILM)-RPE were measured with OCT instrument.The mean follow-up was 50.02± 86.27 months.The disease course was divided into 6 stages including ≤3 months,4-6 months,7-12 months and ＞ 12 months.The thickness of RNFL,GCC and ILM-RPE in patients with different time of onset and mutation sites were comparatively analyzed by covariance analysis.Categorical variables were expressed as a percentage,and the x2 test was used for comparison among multiple groups.Results Among the 1492 family members,285 were diagnosed with LHON and highly suspected clinical manifestations (19.10％),including 190 males (21.98％) and 95 females (11.90％).The total penetrance rates of 11778,14484 and rare mutation sites were 19.84％ (228/1149),20.50％ (33/161),and 13.19％ (24/182) respectively;male penetrance rates were 28.87％ (153/530),27.28％ (20/72),and 18.48％ (17/92) and female penetrance rates were 12.12％ (75/619),14.61％ (13/89) and 7.78％ (7/90).There was no significant difference in total (x2=4.732),male (x2=4.263) and female (x2=4.263) penetrance between different mutation sites (P=0.094,0.110,0.349).Compared with non-pathogenic carriers,the thickness of the RNFL,GCC and ILM-RPE were all different in the four stages (≤3months,4-6 months,7-12 months and ＞12 months).The thickness ofRNFL,GCC and ILM-RPE decreased with the time of onset (P=0.000).There were significant differences in the thickness of each of the GCC and ILM-RPE layers in the macular area of LHON patients with different mutation sites (P＜ 0.05).Among them,the site 11778 and 3460 had the most severe damage in all quadrants of macular GCC and ILM-RPE layer,followed by 14484 site,and the rare site had the least damage in all quadrants.Conclusions The penetrance of LHON patients is 19.10％.With the extension of the onset time (within 1 year),the RNFL layer of the optic disc and all quadrants of the macular GCC and ILM-RPE layer gradually thinned.Compared with 11778 and rare site,14484 site,and the rare site had the lighter damage on the thickness of RNFL,GCC and ILM-RPE.

Objective To analyze the clinical features and prognosis of adult optic neuritis patients with positive serum myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-ON) or aquaporin 4 antibody (AQP4-ON).Methods A retrospective study. From December 2015 to February 2018, in the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital of Capital Medical University and Chinese PLA General Hospital, 162 eyes of 132 patients with positive serum MOG antibody and AQP4 were included in the study. There were 42 MOG-ON patients (49 eyes, 31.8％), 90 AQP4-ON patients (113 eyes, 68.2％). The clinical features of optic neuritis (annual recurrence frequency, incidence of optic disc edema), brain and optic nerve enhanced MRI, serum autoimmune antibodies and cerebrospinal fluid test results were compared between MOG-ON and AQP4-ON patients. All patients were treated with intravenous methylprednisolone sodium succinate in the acute phase and then switched to oral prednisone acetate tablets. The average follow-up time was 15 months. The glucocorticoid dependence, visual prognosis, spinal cord symptoms, and myelitis at the last follow-up were comparatively analyzed between MOG-ON and AQP4-ON patients. The comparison of the count data was performed by χ2 test, and the measurement data were compared byt test.Results Compared with AQP4-ON patients, MOG-ON patients had higher annual recurrence frequency (t=3.760,P=0.005), higher incidence of optic disc edema (χ2=14.777,P<0.001), higher incidence of hormone dependence (χ2=25.496,P<0.001), and better visual prognosis (χ2=28.759, P<0.001). MOG-ON patients were more likely to involve the optic nerve, AQP4-ON patients were more likely to involve the optic chiasm and the optic tract. There was a significant difference in the location of lesions between MOG-ON and AQP4-ON patients (χ2= 5.447,P= 0.015). The proportion of AQP4-ON patients with autoimmune antibodies was significantly higher than that of MOG-ON patients (χ2 = 20.453,P<0.001). The results of cerebrospinal fluid test showed that the white blood cell count of patients with MOG-ON and AQP4-ON were within the normal range, but the IgG level of AQP4-ON patients was significantly higher than that of MOG-ON patients (t=8.669,P<0.001). At the last follow-up, there were 7 and 29 patients of myelitis in MOG-ON and AQP4-ON patients respectively (χ2=3.494,P=0.046).Conclusions The clinical characteristics of MOG-ON were different from AQP4-ON. The incidence of optic disc edema and recurrence rate were higher, but the proportion of autoimmune antibodies was lower. MOG-ON was more likely to show hormone dependence, but the visual prognosis was better. AQP4-ON was easily involved in optic chiasm and optic tract, and the incidence of myelitis was higher.

The first edition of "The Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of optic neuritis" have been published in Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology in 2014. Seven years later, more evidence-based medicine has been accumulated in the treatment of optic neuritis. It is necessary to update or formulate guidelines to guide clinical practice. Based on the methods and procedures for developing evidence -based guidelines, Neuro-Ophthalmology Group of Ophthalmology Branch of Chinese Medical Association and Evidence-based Medicine Centre of Lanzhou University/World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Guideline Implementation and Knowledge Translation created the first "An evidence-based guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of demyelinating optic neuritis in China (2021)" , which aimed to improve the level of clinical diagnosis and treatments of demyelinating optic neuritis. This guideline proposes a new subtype classification of demyelinating optic neuritis to guide precision treatment. It also gives new suggestions about clinical treatment hotspots in the acute and chronic phases, including the application of immunosuppressants and rituximab and other biological agents.

In recent years,enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)has been widely used in clinical practice,aiming to optimize perioperative management measures through evidence-based medicine and reduce the physical and mental trauma,stress reactions,and complications of surgical patients through multidisciplinary collaboration.This paper examined the clinical practice of ERAS from the perspective of medical humanities,reviewed its development and characteristics,and first pointed out that the concept of"minimal harm"laid the medical humanities foundation for ERAS.However,the concept of"minimum harm"faced ethical and realistic challenges in practice,such as differentiated cognition between benefits and non-harm,the tension between generalization and personalization,and the gap between rehabilitation continuity and family care.This paper led into the caregiving perspective of social sciences,proposed"optimal care"as a supplement to the medical humanities concept of ERAS,and introduced its connotation and practice.The combination of"minimal harm"and"optimal care"can provide theoretical guidance for medical humanistic care in ERAS and innovate the practical path of medical humanities into clinical practice.
