Objective To discuss the impact of nursing intervention on self- care ability and health behavior of cancer patients with indwelling PICC in order to improve their life. Methods 218 cases of cancer patients with PICC catheter were randomly divided into the intervention group (107 patients)and the control group (111 patients),the control group were treated with conventional care, the intervention group was treated with targeted cognitive intervention by the PICC nurse specialists on the basis of conventional care. Interventions included improving health knowledge, self-concept, self-care responsibility and self-care skills in four areas, the intervention lasted 3 months. A questionnaire survey was conducted before and after intervention. Self-care skills and health behavior levels were compared between the two groups. Results Self-care skills and health behavior levels of the intervention group were significantly higher thanthose of the control group after intervention. Conclusions Targeted interventions can effectively improve the self-care capacity of outpatient oncology patients with PICC catheter and improve their health behaviors.

Objective To analyze the reasons of abnormal extubation for the chemotherapy patients with PICC,and put forward preventive measures. Methods A retrospective investigation was carried out about the reasons for abnormal extubation in 583 chemotherapy patients with PICC in our hospital from December 2007 to September 2009. Results There were 63 cases of abnormal extubation in 583 patients, accounted for 10.8% of the total number. The reasons of abnormal extubation included: catheter-related infection, misplacement,prolapse, dilapidation and fracture, catheter occlusion,thrombosis and abandoning treatment. Conclusions Complications caused by PICC are the main reasons for abnormal extubation. Important care measures to prevent and deal with kinds of complications timely can reduce the incidence of abnormal extubation.

Objective To investigate the value of dual-source CT perfusion imaging in evaluation of liver fibrosis stage.Methods Liver fibrosis models were established with 35 rabbits (experimental group)which were intraperitoneally injected with carbon tetra-chloride.Meanwhile,other 5 rabbits were regarded as control group which were intraperitoneally inj eced with physiological saline.7 rabbits of experimental group and 1 of control group were undergone dual-source CT perfusion scan at 4,6,8,10,12 weeks respec-tively.Arterial liver perfusion (ALP),portal venous perfusion (PVP),total hepatic perfusion (THP),hepatic perfusion index (HPI)were recorded,and staging of liver fibrosis were assessed by pathological method.Results With the increase of liver fibrosis degree,HPI showed an upward trend,whereas PVP was opposite.HPIs of S2,S3 and S4 stage were significantly different com-pared to that of control group respectively.The differences of HPI between S3,S4 stage to S0 and S1 stage were significant.PVP between S2,S3,S4 stage to S0 stage and S1 stage were also significant different.Conclusion HPI and PVP can reflect the perfu-sion changes of liver fibrosis stages.Combination of HPI and PVP may help the diagnosis of S2,S3 or S4 stage of liver fibrosis.

Objective:To synthesize the mental resilience of Chinese children tested with the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents (RSCA)to evaluate its status as well as the research status. Methods:Four Chinese elec-tronic databases including China Biology Medicine disc (CBM),VIP Database,China National Knowledge Infra-structure (CNKI)and WangFang Database were searched from database established to December 2014. Literatures that reported the mental resilience status of Chinese children tested with RSCA were included. A statistical formula was used to synthesize means and standard deviations to get a total score;the standard mean difference (SMD)and 95% confidence interval (95%CI)of scores measured with RSCA scale were used to conduct meta-analyses usingthe software of Review Manager 5. 2 for comparison between different subgroups. Results:Thirty-nine studies with 16 493 children were included for the final analysis. Quantitative synthesis results showed that the average total score of Chinese children was (3. 3 0. 6 ). The status of psychological resilience was at a good level. The average psychological resilience scores of girls,not left-behind children,urban children,Han children and not-only-child were higher than those of boys [SMD (95%CI):-0. 09 (-0. 14--0. 05 )],left-behind children [SMD (95%CI):-0. 37(-0. 56--0. 19)],rural children [SMD (95%CI):0. 26(0. 13 -0. 38)],minority children [SMD (95%CI):0. 12(0. 04-0. 21)]and only-children [SMD (95%CI):0. 30(0. 16-0. 44)]respectively. Conclusion:The mental resilience of Chinese children is modest with internal diversity.

AIM: To report a two- year's results of iontophoresis-assisted transepithelial corneal cross-linking (I-CXL) for progressive keratoconus.
METHODS: Thirty - four eyes in 24 patients with progressive keratoconus ( mean age 21. 0 ± 5. 6 years;range: 14-32 years) were treated. After 1g/ L riboflavin-distilled water solution was administered by iontophoresis-assited (current 1mA) transepithelial method for 5min in total, standard surface UVA irradiation ( 370nm, 3mW/cm2 ) was performed at a 1 - cm distance for 30min. The best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) measured as LogMAR number, corneal refractive astigmatism, K1, K2, Kmean, Kmax, intraocular pressure, endothelial cell density, the thickness at corneal apex and the thinnest point were measured preoperatively and 2a postoperatively.
RESULTS:At 2a after the procedure, BCVA (LogMAR) improved from 0. 32 ± 0. 25 to 0. 25 ± 0. 19 ( t = 2. 849, P =0. 015). K1 decreased from 47. 12±4. 33 to 46. 06±4. 77 (t =2. 652, P= 0. 015). K2 decreased from 51. 36±5. 59 to 50. 40±6. 16 (t= 2. 121, P= 0. 047). Kmean decreased from 49. 12±4. 76 to 48. 10±5. 25(t = 2. 663, P = 0. 015). Kmax decreased from 57. 57±8. 30 to 55. 91±8. 14 (t = 2. 398, P = 0. 026). The corneal apex thickness decreased from 476. 90±38. 71μ m to 454. 43 ± 40. 86μ m ( t = 2. 853, P = 0. 010 ). The thinnest thickness decreased from 464. 38 ± 39. 92μ m to 433. 86 ±50. 78μ m ( t = 3. 485, P = 0. 002 ). Corneal refractive astigmatism, intraocular pressure and endothelial cell density did not show significant changes.
CONCLUSION: I - CXL for progressive keratoconus is safe and effective which can prevent deterioration of progressive keratoconus within 2a, but further long-term studies are necessary still.

OBJECTIVE To improve capability of nosocomial infection(NI) prevention and control in reusable textiles management.METHODS In an investigation to previous reused textiles handled procedure,care to keep from creation of potential infectious aerosols should not be taken in contaminated textiles collection,transportation of clean and soiled textile was done in undistinguished uncovered vehicles,sorting room shared a common space with dressing room and washing room,and personal protection was not performed in handling contaminated textiles.RESULTS A series of NI management as follows effectively were adopted in hospital laundry.Appropriate bags were adopted for collecting used textiles or fabrics at the point of generation and subsequently closed securely for transportation of them to the laundry.An independent sorting area with exclusive ventilation system was separated from other parts of the laundry.Hand hygiene facilities and products and appropriate personal protective equipments were available.Transportation and storage of clean from soiled textiles were separated.CONCLUSIONS Appropriate handling and processing textiles in infectious disease hospital plays key role in NI management.

Objective To evaluate ultrasound-guided methylene blue dyeing for radical liver segmental resection.Methods Liver segmental resection with uhrasound-guide methylene blue dyeing (UMD-SR) was performed in 16 cases, results were compared with 16 conventional liver segmental resection (CSR) retrospectively.Results All the operations under uhrasound-guided methylene blue dyeing were successfully carried out, among them, reverse dyeing was used in cases with segment Ⅳ, Ⅴ, Ⅷ resection.The blood loss in UMD-SR group was much less than CSR group(t =3.011 ,P =0.009) , at the cost of a longer operation time (t =5.423,P =0.000 07).There was no difference in the mortality and morbidity rates between two groups.Tumor recurrence rate was 6.25％ in UMD-SR group and 18.75％ in CSR group (x2 =0.133,P =0.285).Conclusions Ultrasound-guided methylene blue dyeing liver segmental resection can reduce the blood loss during operation, improve the safety of hepatectomy in case of hepatic carcinoma.
