Objective To assess the prevalence of hand hygiene compliance rates of health care workers (HCWs) at general hospitals in China in 2010-2012. Methods Literatures about hand hygiene compliance of HCWs from 2010 to 2012 were retrieved from China Biology Medicine disc (CBM),China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),Wan Fang database,VIP ,and PubMed database ,Comprehensive Meta Analysis V2 software and Stata 1 2 .0 software were adopted to conduct statistical analysis . Results Ninety literatures were selected with heterogeneity (Q= 48 118.32,P<0.01),random effect model was used. The overall hand hygiene compliance rate of HCWs was 47.83% (95% CI:43.27% -52.42% );When stratified by occupation group,the overall compliance rate of doctors,nur-ses,and unclassified HCWs was 40.36% (95% CI:35.42% -45.49% ),46.70% (95% CI:41.81% -51.65% ),and 40.72% (95% CI:27.75% -55.13% )respectively. According to subgroup analysis,there was no statistical difference in compliance rate between doctors and nurses(Q= 3.12,P>0.05);the compliance rate after patient contact was higher than before patient contact (54.33% [95% CI :44.76% -63.59% ]vs 20.21% [95% CI:14.12% -28.06% ])(Q= 32.59, P<0.01 );hand compliance rate from field observation was higher than from covert observation (70.91% [95% CI :70.71% - 71.10% ]vs 41.20% [95% CI:37.55% -44.94% ])(Q= 247.66,P<0.01).Conclusion The overall hand hygiene compliance rate of HCWs in 2010-2012 was low,in order to reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infec-tion,hand hygiene compliance of HCWs need to be increased .

The clinicopathological data of 173 cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT)were retrospectively analyzed.Among them 125 were males and 48 females with a mean age of 47.9 y (5-78 y).The lesions of 117 cases were located in lungs,41 cases in eyes,8 in ileocecum,2 in liver,2 in spleen,1 in abdominal wall,1 in maxillary sinus and 1 in face.The average diameter of lesions were 3.5 cm,ranging from 1.0 cm to 7.0 cm.The clinical manifestations were not specific,depending on the locations of tumor.The imaging examinations were helpful for diagnosis.The prcsence of slender-spindled myofibroblasts and proliferation of fibroblast cells,with infiltration of chronic inflammatory cells were the basic histopathological features of the disease.Combined with the histological characteristics and immunohistochemical staining IMT can be differentiated from other spindle cell tumors.Appropriate surgical resection is the main treatment for IMT.

ObjectiveTo compare the performance of color Doppler utrasonography (CDUS) alone,magnetic resonance imagine (MRI) alone, and the combination of the two in the diagnosis of thyroid carcinona (TC). MethodsCDUS and MRI results of 54 focuses of carcinoma in 45 cases diagnosed as TC by postoperative pathological results were reviewed. The sensitivity of CDUS, MRI, and the combination of the two in the diagnosis of TC was compared. ResultsThe sensitivity of CDUS and MRI was 77.78％ (42/54)and 81.48％(44/54) respectively. The difference had no statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05 ). The specificity of CDUS and MRI was 88.17％ and 92.47％ respectively, the positive predictive value was 79.25％ and 86.27％ respectively,and the negative predictive value was 87.23％ and 89.58％ respectively. The sensitivity of the combination of CDUS and MRI was 94.44％ (51/54). The difference between the combination and CDUS or MRI alone had statistical significance( P ＜0.05). ConclusionsCDUS has higher detection rate than MRI in microcalcification of TC focus. However, MRI can show more clearly of the peripheral invasion and cervical lymph node metastasis.The combination of the two can improve the accuracy of TC diagnosis.

Objective: Xiaoliu Granule (XLG) is based on the principle of Yiqi Huayu Decoction, this experiment was to study the treating point of XLG on the hysteromyoma rats. Methods: The hysteromyoma rats models was established in rats by loading estrogen and progesterone, to observe the effect of XLG on pathological condition of uterus, and the content of PR , ER, Bcl-2/Bax. Results: The experiments proved that XLG was effective in reducing the proliferation, reversing the proliferative abnormalities of uterus smooth muscle. The XLG also can significantly reduce the content of PR, ER and Bcl-2/Bax. Conclusion: Therefore, XLG was a good approach in treating hysteromyoma. The mechanism of XLG in treating hystermyoma was probably by reducing ER, PR, lowering the E, P sensitivity; reducing expression of Bcl-2, increasing the expression of Bax, and promoting cell apoptosis, etc.

Objective To investigate the causes and treatment measures of an outbreak of Norwegian scabies oc-curred in a hospital.Methods In May 2013,an outbreak of Norwegian scabies among health care workers(HCWs) occurred because of the misdiagnosis of a patient with Norwegian scabies,epidemiological investigation was carried out by healthcare-associated infection(HAI)control department,medical intervention and disinfection and isolation measures were performed.Results A total of 27 HCWs and patients’relatives developed Norwegian scabies.After active medical treatment,patients’condition improved;all appliances used by patients were cleaned and disinfected after being wrapped and sealed with plastic bags for one week.Epidemic trend of infection was under control and no new case was found.Conclusion With highly contagious,Norwegian scabies can be spread in local area,it is neces-sary to improve HCWs’diagnostic ability to this disease and take effective measures to prevent the epidemic once HAI occur.
