Errors and flaws of clinical nursing practice can be fully exposed to voluntary reporting system of nursing errors, and then dramatically improving patient safety. This paper aims at exploring the theoretical basis, the characteristic of the system and essentiality for establishing voluntary reporting system of nursing errors, introducing the methods practicing both in abroad and in domestic, explaining its precondition and put forward a suggestion that the voluntary reporting system would be established in our own country.

Objective To assess the chest X-ray radiographic findings in children with influenza A (H1N1) virus infection. Methods The chest X-ray radiographies in 67 children with influenza A(H1N1) virus infection were reviewed in this study. The chest radiographies were obtained 3-8 days after the onset of symptoms and for the follow-up. Results The abnormalities were bilateral in 53 patients and unilateral in 7 patients. The predominant radiographic findings were bilateral patchy consolidation (n=42) with rapid confluence in 10 patients, lobular consolidation (n=7) with interstitial hyperplasia in 1 patient 3 month later, diffuse consolidation (n=11) with interstitial hyperplasia in all patients after 3 month. ConclusionThe predominant chest X-ray radiographic findings are bilateral patchy consolidation and diffuse consolidation with interstitial hyperplasia afterward.

Objective To explore the relation between the expression of breast cancer stem cells(BCSCs) related gene CD44 , OCT4 and Twist1 in breast cancer tissues and swelling axillary lymph nodes with the recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer . Methods The genes and antigen expressions of BCSCs relative factors CD44 ,CD24 ,OCT4 and Twist1 in th breast cancer tissue and axillary lymph nodes were detected by the immunohistochemical method and RT‐PCR .Results Totally 14 cases of preopera‐tively and intraoperatively diagnosed breast cancer had axillary lymph nodes metastasis of cancer cells .The over expression of BC‐SCs relative factors CD44 ,OCT4 and Twist1 antigen positive in the breast cancer tissue and axillary lymph nodes were detected by the immunohistochemical method ,while CD24 was lowly expressed;the gene expressions of BCSCs relative factors CD44 ,OCT4 and Twist1 in the breast cancer tissue and axillary lymph nodes were enhanced by the RT‐PCR detection (P<0 .05) ,while CD24 gene was lowly expressed(P>0 .05) .Conclusion The genes and antigen expression of BCSCs related factors CD44 ,OCT4 and Twist1 in the patients with breast cancer complicating swelling axillary lymph nodes are significantly increased ,which might indicate that the BCSCs related factors are related with easily early metastasis and recurrence of breast cancer cells .

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) for the treatment of non-acute (history ＞ 14 days) deep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremity.Methods Clinical data of 63 patients of non-acute DVT of lower extremities treated by CDT and adjunctive angioplasty and stenting from July 2009 to August 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Venous recanalization was graded by a thrombus score based on pre-and post-treatment venography.Follow-up was performed by Doppler ultrasound and clinical evaluation.Results A total of 63 limbs with DVT with a mean symptom duration of (22 ± 5) days were treated by a continuous combined with pulse-spray infusion of urokinase of (1.21 ± 0.69) million IU/d for (74 ± 21) hours.Significant recanalization was achieved in 77％ (48 of 63) of the treated limbs.After thrombolysis,percutaneous angioplasty was done for 15 residual lesions and stent placement was performed in 11 iliac veins and 1 femoral vein.Minor bleeding occurred in 6 (10％) patients,no patients suffered from major bleeding or symptomatic pulmonary embolism.During follow up (mean:15 ±6 months),the veins were patent in 45 (71％) limbs.15 (24％) limbs developed mild post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS),and none had severe PTS.Conclusions CDT combined with adjunctive angioplasty and stenting is safe and effective for removal of the clot burden and for restoration of the venous flow in patients with non-acute lower extremity DVT.

Chronic prostatitis is a common male disease, and its pathogenesis is not yet clear. Most scholars believe that oxidative stress and immune imbalance are the keys to the occurrence and progression of chronic prostatitis. Currently immunotherapy of chronic prostatitis remains in the exploratory stage. This article relates the active ingredients of 5 Chinese medicinal herbs (total glucosides of paeony, tripterigium wilfordii polglycosidium, curcumin, geniposide, and quercetin) for the treatment of chronic prostatitis and their possible action mechanisms as follows: 1) inhibiting the immune response and activation and proliferation of T-cells, and adjusting the proportion of Th1/Th2 cells; 2) upregulating the expression of Treg and enhancing the patient's tolerability; 3) suppressing the activation of the NF-kB factor, reducing the release of iNOS, and further decreasing the release of NO, IL-2 and other inflammatory cytokines, which contribute to the suppression of the immune response; 4) inhibiting the production of such chemokines as MCP-1 and MIP-1α in order to reduce their induction of inflammatory response. Studies on the immune mechanisms of Chinese medicinal herbs in the treatment of chronic prostatitis are clinically valuable for the development of new drugs for this disease.
