1.An application of the S-P Chart analysis in examination item exam on fundamental nursing
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2014;30(19):69-72
Objective To obtain a two-dimensional evaluation result of the quality of examination paper on fundamental nursing and the students' performance,so as to find the weakness and problems in teaching and learning,and to put forward some suggestions.Methods With the S-P chart analytic system which was designed by using the technology of Excel VBA,we made an analysis of 164 papers of fundamental nursing.Results Both the P-curve and S-curve were in the lower right corner.There wasn't any long vertical line in P-curve.There wasn't any long horizontal one in S-curve either.Caution index of 4 questions and 15 students exceed 0.75.The totality difficulty index of the paper was 0.79.The suitability index was 0.43.The stability index was 0.48.Conclusions Propositional contents about physician orders management,gastric lavage,administering medication,observation of disease and pain need to be reformed into both wide coverage and clear focuses.There are no faults in students' grades.Different learning levels do exist,but with little difference.S-P chart affords multiplex and huge amount of information.Its graphics and parameters help to analyze both the students' and teachers' performance from the macroscopic and microcosmic angle,so as to make teachers self-reflective on teaching fundamental nursing and producing papers from various aspects.
2.Treatment of Shoulder Impingement Syndrome by Tuina and Acupuncture plus Functional Training: A Report of 40 Cases
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2008;6(1):56-57
Acupuncture and Tuina plus functional training were used to treat forty cases of shoulder impingement syndrome. Twenty-seven cases were cured clinically, accounting for 67.5%; 9 cases had marked effectiveness, accounting for 22.5%; 3 cases had effectiveness, accounting for 7.5%; 1 case obtained no effect, accounting for 2.5%; the total effective rate was 97.5%.

5.The Relation between Test Anxiety and Mental Health in Adolescents.
Journal of Korean Academy of Community Health Nursing 2005;16(4):458-466
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the relation between test anxiety and mental health in adolescents. METHOD: The subjects were 450 students of two academic high schools in J City, who were selected through convenient sampling. Data were collected through a survey using a structured questionnaire from September 1st to 15th 2005. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS 10.0 for Windows through descriptive analysis, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test and stepwise multiple regression. RESULT: The mean score of test anxiety was 2.40 (range:1.13-3.81) and that of mental health was 2.77 (range:0.64-5.03). A significant negative correlation was observed between test anxiety and mental health (r=-0.28, p=.000). Test anxiety was significantly different according to adolescents' general characters such as gender (t=-1.98, p=.048), grade (F=3.54, p=.030), school life satisfaction (F=10.73, p=.000) and relationship with the teacher (F=11.60, p=.000). Mental health was significantly different according to adolescents' general characters such as religion (t=2.14, p=.032) and school life satisfaction (F=4.13, p=.017). The most powerful predictor of mental health was test anxiety and it, combined with religion, accounted for 9.0% of variance in mental health in adolescents. CONCLUSION: Test anxiety and mental health was found to be in a significant negative correlation with each other in adolescents. Therefore, nursing intervention programs for adolescents needs to reduce their test anxiety to improve their mental health.

8.Clinical value of serum CA125 determination for postmenopausal uterine endometrial carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2001;20(2):105-107
Objective To assess preoperative value of serum CA125 determination for uterine endometrial carcinoma including myometrial invasion, lymph node metastasis, surveillance and recurrence of the carcinoma. To explore the relationship between serum CA125 levels and pathological grades of endometrial carcinoma. Methods Serum CA125 levels were determined by ELISA test in 67 cases of postmenopausal endometrial carcinoma. Results There were significant differences in CA125 levels between patients with clinical stage Ⅲ、 Ⅳ cases and clinical stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ (P<0.01). Serum CA125 levels of 10 cases with recurrent carcinoma were positive. Serum CA125 levels of patients with papillary serous adenocarcinoma were significantly higher than those of adenocarcinoma. No relation was found between pathological grades and serum CA125 levels. Conclusions Serum CA125 levels was a useful clinical parameter for determination of postmenopausal endometrial carcinoma preoperatively.
9.Advances of community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
International Journal of Pediatrics 2012;39(4):325-328
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the major pathogens of the hospital infection.Its clinical features and drug-resisetance situations have always been concerned.But since the late 1990s,another class of MRSA has become a major concern worldwide as an emerging pathogen in the community.This new class of MRSA is called community-acquired MRSA (CA-MRSA).With the rapid development of the infection of CA-MRSA in 20 years,especially in the latest 3 years,CA-MRSA may be replacing the hospital-acquired MRSA strains(HA-MRSA) as one of the major pathogens in the hospital and the community as well.The characteristics of CA-MRSA are very different from those of HA-MRSA.This review summarizes the current studies of CA-MRSA on the epidemiology and the molecular characteristics.
10.Rapid detection of C2938T, G1846T, G1846A and C188T gene mutation in mainland Chinese
International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2008;29(7):577-580
Background The cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase 2D6 (CYP2D6) ac- tivity can he estimated by investigating the metabolism of model drugs or by genotyping the most com- mon CYP2D6 alleles. The CYP2D6 allele frequencies are well investigated in Caucasians whereas no comprehensive allele analysis has been done in mainland Chinese. The aim of the study was to investi- gate C2938T, G1846T, G1846A and C188T gene mutation in mainland Chinese. Methods Three tet- ra-primer PCR assays and one allele specific amplification (ASA)-PCR assay were developed to easily genotype C2938T, G1846T, G1846A and C188T mutation in CYP2D6 allele in 223 cases of mainland Chinese. Results The most frequent allele was * 10 (C188T) with a prevalence of 51.3%, followed by * 2 allele (C2938, 15. 5%) in mainland Chinese. The distribution frequence of a novel variant CYP2D6 * 14B was 2.0%. This novel * 14B allele was different from * 14 allele by the absence of the C188T substitution and by the additional G1749C substitution. Conclusion This comprehensive study of CYP2D6 allele in mainland Chinese shows some genetic diversity compared to Chinese from other regions. Genotyping is a useful method in applying drug individuation.
