Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2011;27(35):34-35
Objective To investigate the effect of budesonide inhalation combined with azithromycin in treatment of children with mycoplasma pneumonia and the corresponding clinical nursing pathway.Methods From February 2010 to 2011,100 cases of children patients with mycoplasma pneumonia (all with budesonide inhalation combined with azithromycin) were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group with 50 patients in each group.The experimental group adopted clinical nursing pathway,while the control group underwent routine care.After one or three-month follow-up,forced vital capacity (FVC),forced vital capacity 1s (FEV1),peak expiratory flow values (PEF) and other pulmonary functional indexes and clinical efficacy were compared between two groups.Results The clinical effective rate of the experimental group was 94%,higher than the control group.FVC,FEV1,PEF changes in the experimental group were better than the control group.Conclusions Budesonide inhalation combined with azithromycin in treatment of mycoplasma pneumonia in children has good effect,coupled with the clinical nursing pathway can effectively improve lung function,reduce the incidence of adverse reactions during treatment,significantly improve the prognosis,should be used widely in clinic.
4.Malnutrition and stroke
Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2009;17(5):297-301
Malnutrition is significantly correlated with the high mortality and other poor outcomes of stroke;in turn,stroke can increase the incidence of malnutrition.Old age and swallowing dysfunction are independent risk factors of post-stroke malnutrition.The sequential nutritional support with enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition can reduce or avoid the complications of both malnutrition and stroke,and therefore should be considered for stroke patients,especially those who are critically ill.
6.Establishment of clinical EBM information service model in medical library
Chinese Journal of Medical Library and Information Science 2017;26(1):63-67
The visual angle of active participation reference model was not scientific and its contents were not sys-tematic in the past EBM information service. A new EBM information service model was thus established by compa-ring the finding process of evidence and the transforming process ofinformation-knowledge-intelligence with the need of evidence-based decision making in clinicians as a logic starting point in order to provide the theory of what to do andhow to scientifically do for clinical librarians and clinicians, to effectively direct clinical librarians to perform EBM information service, and to help clinicians to scientifically make their decision.
7.Clinical presentation and diagnosis criterion of pediatric hypertension
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2015;(13):968-971
There is a trackphenomenon in the development of hypertension and pediatric hypertension has an important predictive value for adult hypertension. However pediatric hypertension is not typical and normal blood pressure is associated with age,sex and height. The blood pressure level,clinical presentation and complication rates of secondary pediatric hypertension are higher than primary pediatric hypertension. So secondary pediatric hypertension could get timely treatment compared to primary pediatric hypertension. This paper focus on the clinical presentation and diagnosis criterion of pediatric hypertension and provide a reference for the pediatrician.

9.Clinical Research on Elderly Hypertension of Kidney Deficiency and Blood Stasis Syndrome Intervened with Bushen Huoxue Decoction
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;(2):25-27
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Bushen Huoxue Decoction on elderly hypertension of kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. Methods Totally 106 patients with elderly hypertension of kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome were divided into control group (53 cases) and treatment group (53 cases), according to random number table method. The control group was treated with routine western medicine, while the treatment group was given Bushen Huoxue Decoction along with western medicine treatment for 8 weeks. The changes of TCM syndrome, blood pressure, TG, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, high sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) before and after treatment of the two groups were observed. Results The total effective rate of anti-hypertension was 94.33%(50/53) in the treatment group and was 77.35% (41/53) in the control group. The total effective rate of clinical symptoms was 96.22%(51/53) in the treatment group and was 79.24%(42/53) in the control group. After treatment, TG, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, hs-CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α were improved significantly in the treatment group, with statistical significance compared with the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Bushen Huoxue Decoction combined with western medicine achieves the good efficacy on elderly hypertension of kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome.
10.Dynamic changes of FasL protein expression in retinal tissue with aging in retinal degeneration mice
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2017;35(1):17-21
Background Retinal transplantation is a new approach to the treatment of retinal degeneration diseases,and how to avoid or reduce the immune rejection after transplantation is a problem.In experimental studies on retinal transplantation,C57BL/6 mice are often used as donors and rd mice serve as recipients.Studies showed that Fas ligand (FasL) protein induces the apoptosis of Fas+ inflammatory cells by FasL/Fas signal pathway,speculating that FasL protein is associated with immune rejection after transplantation.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate FasL protein expression change in retinas of C57BL/6 mice and rd mice with aging and reveal the immune characteristics of the mouse retinas.Methods The frozen sections of eyeball from C57BL/6 mice and rd mice at the age of postnatal (PN)-0 week,PN-1 week,PN-2 week,PN-3 week and PN-4 week were prepared.The expression of FasL protein in the mouse retinas was examined by immnofluorescense technique.Images were acquired by fluorescence microscope and analyzed semi-quantitively by software from laser scanning confocal microscope as the fluorescence intensity (FI).The results were compared among different strains of mice.Results The retina developed imperfectly in PN-1 week C57BL/6 mice and FasL protein was positively expressed in the whole retina.In PN-2,3 and 4 week C57BL/6 mice,retinas finished the development with 10 layers,and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE),inner segment (IS),outer limiting membrane (OLM),outer plexiform layer (OPL),inner nuclear layer (INL),inner plexiform layer (IPL) and ganglion cell layer (GCL).Retinal structure and expression of FasL protein in the whole retina of rd mice in the PN-1 week were similar with C57BL/6 mice,however,ONL cells of rd mice were evidently decreased with aging.The RPE,OPL,INL,IPL and GCL expressed the FasL protein in PN-2,PN-3 and PN-4 week rd mice.The mean FI of FasL protein in the RPE layer was 184.199±16.747,186.797±7.904 and 184.319± 18.795 in rd mice of PN-2 week,PN-3 week and PN-4 week,which were significantly higher than 160.402±22.851,160.995 ±22.799 and 105.787 ± 17.676 in C57BL/6 mice (t =-3.360,P =0.002;t'=-4.277,P =0.000;t =-12.175,P=0.000).There were not significant differences in the mean FI of FasL protein in IPL between C57BL/6 mice and rd mice at ages of PN-2 week,PN-3 week and PN-4 week (all at P>0.05).Conclusions The cells of retinal ONL are gradually decreased with the development of rd mice,and FasL protein expression intensity in RPE is evidently enhanced in rd mice compared with C57BL/6 mice.
