Objective To evaluate the effects of dietary intervention with low glycemic index (LGI) and low glycemic load (LGL) on dietary knowledge and dietary modification of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods This study was a cluster randomized controlled study.From June to September 2010,105 T2DM patients were randomly sampled from 3 residential areas (n =35 in each) in Jin Pen Ling community,Changsha,Hunan province and divided into three groups with a random number table:whole-day dietary intervention group (group A,n =35),breakfast dietary intervention group (group B,n =35),and control group (group C,n =35).Interventions included 3-month health education and dietary intervention.Dietary knowledge,dietary oils,glycemic index (GI),and glycemic load (GL) of the three groups were compared before and after intervention.Results Before intervention,all the three groups showed a low level of knowledge about GI (57.7 ％),and high levels of average GI value of each meal (69.71 ± 8.55),GL value per day (132.45 ± 16.25),and daily cooking oil intake [(39.95 ± 20.64)g].The average knowledge level about GI increased after intervention in both group A (96.3％ vs.57.1％,P ＜0.05) and group B (94.5％ vs.60.5％,P＜0.05),but not in group C (54.8％ vs.55.3％,P＞0.05).The reduction of daily cooking oilintake in group A was larger than those in group B and group C [(7.81 ± 3.91) g vs.(-5.12 ± 1.37) g,(7.81 ± 3.91) g vs.(-3.45 ± 5.95) g,both P ＜ 0.05];so was the average GI value of each meal [group A,(5.95±2.27);groupB (-0.85±1.87);groupC,(-2.87±1.93);allP＜0.05].The changes of GL values in group A (11.31 ±4.31) was better than in group B (1.23 ±27.82) and group C (-0.43 ± 18.40)(both P ＜0.05).Conclusions The average GI value,GL value,and daily cooking oil intake of T2DM patients were all at a high level before intervention,while the level of knowledge about GI was at a low level.Health education providing GI knowledge may effectively improve the knowledge about GI in T2DM patients,while LGI and LGL dietary intervention may promote diet modification.Whole-day dietary intervention may be more effective than breakfast intervention.

Objective To isolate and identify the potential binding partners of LRRK2,a gene linked to both dominant familial form and sporadic form of Parkinson's disease,thus to further our knowledge of its function.Methods We used a sequence containing full-length of COR domain and part of ROC and MAPKKK domain as bait.The bait amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was then cloned into a yeast expression plasmid pGBKT7.After being sequenced and analyzed,pGBKT7-bait was transformed into the yeast strain AH109.Western blot was performed to confirm the expression of pGBKT7-bait in AH109 yeast strain.Then human fetal brain cDNA library was trarnsformed into that yeast strain.which could express pGBKT7-bait fusion protein.The yeast strain which contained pGBKT7-bait and human fetal brain cDNA library was plated on quadruple dropout medium (SD/-Trp/-Leu/-His/-Ade)containing X-a-gal.We retested these positive colonies using 2 independent yeast strains AH109 contained pGBKT7-bait or pGBKT7,respectively.At last,these plasmids isolated from these true positive colonies were analyzed by bioinformatics.Results We obtained 9 true positive colonies,these colonies were sequenced, and we performed sequence Blast in GenBank.Three colonies of the 9 positive colonies were not in open reading-frames.Among other 6 colonies,there were known proteins including spermatid perinuclear RNA-binding protein(STRBP)and BCL2-associated athanogene 5 isoform b(BAG5),as well as unknown proteins including tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type(PTPN23),1(3)mbt-like 3 isoform b(L3 MBTL3),RALY RNA binding protein-like isoform 1(RALYL),and Homo sapiens mRNA for KIAA1783 protein,partial cds(KIAA 1783).Conclusion True positive colonies of LRRK2 are successfully obtained by the yeast 2-hybrid.Our screened proteins may provide a new research clue for revealing biological functions of LRRK2,pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease,and other neurodegerations.

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of reflective trainings for nursing students on their critical thinking disposition. METHODS: A total of 157 senior undergraduate nursing students sampled from Hainan Medical University in China participated in this study in 2014. They were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group students were provided the reflective training during their entire 12-month clinical internship, whereas students in the control group were requested to keep their reflective diaries but without a formal training. Before and after the intervention, nursing students' critical thinking disposition was rated using the Chinese version of Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory (CTDI-CV). RESULTS: Before the start of the intervention, the critical thinking disposition scores of the two groups had no significant differences. At the end of the intervention, it was found that the experimental students performed better in each subscale of CTDI-CV. These include the search for truth, open mind, analytical ability, systematic ability, critical thinking, self-confidence, curiosity, and cognitive maturity. By summing the scores of all categories, the results showed that the experimental group had a significantly higher total score than that of the control group (p ≤ .044). Evaluating the score difference in each function indicated that there was a range of improvements on the critical thinking disposition because of the reflective training intervention. CONCLUSION: Reflective training during the internship period improves nursing students' disposition of critical thinking and promotes their readiness for their clinical practices in the rapidly increasing demands of the healthcare field.

Objective:The three-step model of ″new nurse, professional group nurse, and clinical nurse specialist″ combines the clinical professional nursing group to promote the development of clinical nurse research capabilities and the construction of nursing research teams.Methods:A three-step model of ″new nurse, professional group nurse, and clinical nurse specialist″ was established by combining the individual development of nurses and team collaboration. Taking the clinical professional nursing group as the entry point, clinical work of the clinical professional nursing group, quality control of clinical professional nursing groups, quality control circle activities, nurse career development, and nursing research team building were integrated to implement the three-step model, thereby driving the development of clinical nurses′ research capacity and nursing research team construction. The methods of the three-step model combined with clinical professional nursing groups to promote the development of clinical nurse research capabilities and the construction of nursing research teams were implemented. The following were the eleven specific management measures: Improving the structure and echelon construction of clinical professional nursing groups, developing research plans and goals from four dimensions (departments, clinical professional nursing groups, individual nurses, and new nurses), carrying out nursing research training to clinical professional nursing groups that emphasizes both theriotical methods and practical operations, organizing nursing research projects by clinical professional nursing groups, promoting the innovation of work towards digitization and informatization, promoting clinical professional nursing groups to conduct interventional studies, launching quality control circle projects by clinical professional nursing groups, participating in and hosting nursing rounds by clinical professional nursing groups, improving the clinical technical problem by The clinical professional nursing groups, encouraging collaboration and communication between clinical professional nursing groups and physicians, facilitating the cross-integration and development of clinical professional nursing groups.Results:The three-step model has promoted the growth of nurses from the route of ″new nurse, professional group nurse, and clinical nurse specialist″, built a nursing research team and talent echelon based on the breakthrough of clinical professional nursing groups, and solved clinical practical problems and produced scientific research results.Conclusions:Implementing the three-step model combined with clinical professional nursing groups to promote the development of clinical nurse research capabilities and the construction of nursing research teams can promote the collaborative development of clinical nursing research and clinical nursing work.

OBJECTIVE: To detect pathological variant in a Chinese pedigree affected with congenital contractural arachnodactyly (CCA). METHODS: Next generation sequencing (NGS) was used to scan the whole exome of the proband. Potential variant of the FBN2 gene was also detected in all members of the pedigree and 100 healthy controls by Sanger sequencing. With the determination of the genotype, prenatal diagnosis was carried out by amniotic fluid sampling. RESULTS: A c.3528C>A (p.Asn1176Lys) variant was identified in the FBN2 gene of the proband, other patients from this pedigree, as well as the fetus. The same variant was not found among healthy members from this pedigree and the 100 healthy controls. CONCLUSION The c.3528C>A (p.Asn1176Lys) variant of the FBN2 gene probably underlies the pathogenesis of CCA in our case. The new variant has enriched pathological spectrum of the FBN2 gene.

Objective To investigate and analyze the prevalence of pressure ulcer and other skin injuries, and the implementation of pressure ulcer prevention measures among inpatients in Class ⅢGrade A hospitals in Hainan province. To provide basis for fomulating bundle of care model to prevent and intervent pressure ulcer, and establishing early warning management model on nosocomial pressure ulcer in ClassⅢGrade A hospitals in Hainan province. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted on inpatients from 7 ClassⅢGrade A hospitals in Hainan province. A investigation was performed by a self-designed inpatients'questionnaire and qualified tools on pressure ulcer and other skin injuries. Statistical analysis of data using by SPSS19.0 software. Results The content validity index of the self-designed inpatients'questionnaire and qualified tools on pressure ulcer and other skin injuries was 0.91, Cronbach α coefficient was 0.93. The prevalence of pressure sores was 2.28% (165/7 248), of which 66.06% (109/ 165) was family involvement, 30.30% (50/165) was hospital acquired, 3.03% (5/165) was community involvement,and 0.61% (1/165) was both from family and hospital acquired. Medical instrument related pressure ulcer accounted for 18.18%(30/165) of the total number of pressure ulcer. The most common site of pressure ulcer was the sacrococcygeal region, accounting for 47.94% (93/194). The proportion of pressure ulcer in stageⅡwas the highest (35.57% , 69/194). 52.01% (647/1 244) of patients at risk of pressure ulcer did not use the anti-pressure devices,and 81.40% (1 013/1 244) of patients' main compression sites were not covered by dressings.35.50%(442/1 244) of patients did not according to plans or regularly turn over, only 56.19% (699/1 244) patients turned over every 2 hours. 61.57% (442/1 244) patients who have pressure ulcer did not have anti-pressure ulcer signs. Among other skin injuries: the prevalence of incontinence related dermatitis was 0.88%(64/7 248), and the prevalence of avulsion skin injury was 0.37%(27/7 248). Conclusions The incidence of acquired pressure ulcer in ClassⅢGrade A hospitals in our province is slightly higher than other domestic investigation results. The reasons may be that anti-pressure devices in hospital configuration are not enough, lack of the tailored bundle of prevention measures of pressure ulcer, and failure to establish an effective early warning management model on pressure ulcer etc. So prevention and treatment of pressure ulcer should have a further standard management. Instrument related pressure ulcer and incontinence related dermatitis should also attract the attention of clinical nurses and managers.
