Objective To investigate the effect of collaborative care model on diseases attitude and self-efficacy of patients with chronic hepatitis B. Methods Ninety-six cases of patients with chronic hepatitis B were selected. Forty-seven cases who were hospitalized from June 2015 to December 2015 were seemed as the control group, while 49 cases who were hospitalized from January 2016 to June 2016 were seemed as the collaboration group. Patients in control group were accepted routine care measures for chronic hepatitis B. Patients in collaboration group were accepted collaboration care measure on the basis of routine care, including patient assessment and collaboration care program development, health knowledge for patients and their families guiding and basic skills training, and psychological guidance intervention. Respectively, at admitting to hospital and after intervention 4 weeks, the diseases attitude of patients with chronic hepatitis B diseases, self-care ability and self-efficacy were assessed. Results There were no significant differences in attitude score, self-care ability score, self-efficacy score before intervention between two groups (P>0.05). They were improved after intervention compared with before intervention, the difference was statistically significant (t=3.197-25.376, P<0.01 or 0.05). The attitude in the face, avoid and give up score respectively in collaborative nursing group after intervention were (28.2±5.3), (9.8±4.2), (5.1±1.7) points, and (23.4±4.1), (14.1±3.8), (8.2±1.9) points in control group, the difference was statistically significant (t = 4.393, 4.220, 9.285, P < 0.01). The health knowledge of self-care ability, self-care skill, since the sense of responsibility, self-concept scale in collaborative nursing group after intervention were (48.2±3.4), (39.5±4.0), (33.1±5.5), (29.1±3.7) points, and (39.4±4.2), (30.2± 3.5), (24.7±4.8), (25.2±3.5) points in control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=5.137-11.286, P<0.01). The self-efficacy in each entry score and total score in collaborative nursing group were (3.4 ± 0.7), (31.5 ± 4.6) points and (2.8 ± 0.4), (20.7 ± 5.1) points in control group, the difference were statistically significant (t=5.288, 14.579, P<0.01). Conclusions Collaborative care model could help chronic hepatitis B patients to establish correct disease attitude, improve self-care ability and enhance self-efficacy.

Objective To analyze the citation of papers published in Chinese Journal of Geriatrics from the year 2008 to 2012,and evaluate the quality and academic level of the journal.Methods Based on the information from Wanfang database,bibliometric analysis was conducted to analyze number of cited papers,citation frequency,citation time distribution,authors,funds supports etc,and immediacy index and citation half-life were calculated.Results A total of 1567 papers were published in the journal from the year 2008 to 2012,and 377 articles were cited for 669 times with citation rate of 24.06％.The average number of cited times was 1.77,and the top value per article cited was 18 times.There were 12 authors whose articles were cited 6 and over times,and 11 affiliations whose articles were cited more than 10 times.Among 377 papers,105 papers (27.85％) were supported by funds,among which the majority was provincial fund (36 papers) and national fund (35 papers).Immediacy index from the year 2008 to 2012 were 0.042,0.032,0.019,0.067 and 0.006,respectively,and the citation half-life was 1.71 in the year 2012.Conclusions Articles published in Chinese Journal of Geriatrics have high-quality and can reflect the development and research progress in geriatric medicine.The journal is one of the most important information resources in geriatric academic field in China.

Objective To analyze the literature distribution and research status of osteoporosis in the elderly published in Chinese Medical Association journals.Methods The literatures of elderly osteoporosis published in Chinese Medical Association journals from 2008 to 2013 were collected.And the publication year,distribution,content,institution and region of the literatures were analyzed.Results From 2008 to 2013,there were 76 articles about osteoporosis in the elderly published in 22 kinds of journals of the Chinese Medical Association.Among these journals,the Chinese Journal of Geriatrics-published elderly osteoporosis articles occupied the most number [28 (36.8％)].There were 21 articles published mostly in 2013 (27.6％),secondly in 2009 (17 articles,22.4％) and 2012 (12 articles,15.8％).The province or city that published more than 10 articles was Beijing (18 articles,23.7％),Zhejiang (13 articles,17.1％),Shanghai (10 articles,13.2％) and Guangdong (10 articles,13.2％).The institution that published most articles was Beijing Jishuitan Hospital (4articles,5.3％).The main contents of these literatures included the influencing factors,diagnosis,treatment strategy,bone metabolism and surgery treatment for elderly osteoporosis.Conclusions Chinese Medical Association journals are the important source to acquire osteoporosis literature for the medical workers.The distribution of journal is relatively concentrated,but the distribution of authors,institution is dispersed.Chinese Journal of Geriatrics publishes the most number of articles.The research of osteoporosis has attracted more attention.

Objective To analyze the structural,content and language characteristics of English abstract in domestic versus international geriatrics journals in order to promote international exchange in geriatric medicine research in our country.Methods In this paper,we analyzed the characteristics and contents of original articles published in 5 foreign journals (IF＞3.0) from Pubmed database (n=60) and 5 core (the source of statistics) domestic geriatric journals from Wanfang web during recent 3 years (n=61).Results Our survey showed that in the domestic geriatrics journals,the structured abstracts were used with inflexible four-heading and fixed leading words.In foreign geriatrics journals,however,non-structured abstracts were mostly applied in articles on basic research,and structured abstracts primarily appeared in clinical or survey research papers.Compared with foreign geriatrics journals,the shortages or some problems in English abstracts of the domestic geriatrics journals included a short writing,repetition of objective with title,lack of description of research background,improper description of results data,more passive voice,improper use of modal verbs.Conclusions The domestic geriatrics journals should learn the diverse forms of abstracts and content structure from foreign geriatrics journals,strengthen the elaboration of background and highlights,and use active voice in concordance with the international mainstream.

Objective To explore the distribution and research status of literatures on Alzheimer disease (AD) published recently,to compare the differences in the research papers on AD between China and foreign countries,and to provide bibliometrics data for Alzheimer disease research.Methods Using bibliometrics methods,the characteristics and contents of Alzheimer disease research documents were analyzed in Pubmed database and Wanfang web by analysis tools.Research status of Alzheimer disease including the type of literatures and journal distribution from 2008 to 2012 was analyzed.Currently hot topics or top high frequency words were emphatically analyzed.Results There were 646 matched literatures for Alzheimer disease retrieved in Chinese core periodicals,and 19 423 literatures in Pubmed database.The articles for clinical study of Alzheimer disease were more than experimental and epidemiologic study among the 646 literatures.The disciplines distribution of AD in Chinese core journals was similar to international journals,mainly including nerves,brain,and geriatrics journals.The domestic research papers on Alzheimer disease were less than 5％ in Pubmed database,and the articles from Chinese journals in Chinese or English edition accounted for only a small proportion of Pubmed database.The recent research direction of Alzheimer disease in China was similar to foreign countries such as amyloid proteins,diagnosis and gene,but foreign research paid more attention to the metabolism,image and the aging mechanism in AD,while in China there were quite a lot of reports in the literatures on cholinergic drugs,tau protein,hippocampus and Chinese herbal treatments.Conclusions The AD-related disciplines distribution in China and foreign country is relatively fixed in recent 5 years.The AD researches carried out in China are close to those in foreign country,but researches on some areas still lag behind.The experimental and epidemiologic study on AD should be strengthen in China.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effective dose of oxycodone hydrochloride in-jection for postoperative analgesia in breast cancer patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy under general anesthesia in a prospective,randomized controlled clinical trial.Methods One hundred fe-male patients at ASAⅠ or Ⅱ,aged 29-69 years,BMI< 30 kg/m2 ,scheduled for elective modified radical mastectomy under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into two groups (n =50):low dose oxycodone hydrochloride injection group (group OL),and high dose oxycodone hydrochloride injection group (group OH).Oxycodone 0.03 mg/kg (group OL)and 0.09 mg/kg (group OH)was intravenous injected 30 mi-nutes before the end of the operation,respectively.Anesthetics usage was terminated when skin was sutured.Pain at rest and during movement was assessed using VAS score at 5 min,0.5,2,4,8,12 and 24 h after extubation of laryngeal mask.Total consumption of analgesic for rescue analgesia in the ward and the adverse events were recorded.Results Compared with group OL,group OH had lower VAS scores,There were significant differences in the VAS scores between groups at 8 and 12 h after surgery (P <0.05).No serious adverse event occurred in each group postoperatively.The most common adverse event was nausea, followed by vomiting and dizziness.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse event be-tween the two groups.Conclusion 0.09 mg/kg oxycodone hydrochloride injection is safe and effective in re-ducing pain after breast cancer radical operation.

To explore the anti-atherosclerotic mechanism of estrogen and especially observe the effect of estradiol on the content of cholesterol in J774a.1 mouse mononuclear/macrophage-derived foam cells which were incubated with oxidized low-density lipoproteins (ox-LDL). J774a.1 mouse mononuclear/macrophages were incubated with ox-LDL or with both ox-LDL and estradiol (1, 0.1 or 0.01 micromol x L(-1)). Oil red O staining was used to observe the formation of foam cells, and cholesterol oxidase fluorometric was used to determine the content of cellular cholesterol content. Western blotting and RTFQ-PCR were used to observe the expressions of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-B I ) in J774a.1 foam cells. Compared with the control cells, J774a.1 mouse mononuclear/macrophage-derived foam cells showed significantly increased contents of total cholesterol and cholesterol ester (P < 0.001) and decreased SR-B I mRNA expression (P < 0.01). Estradiol treatment significantly lowered the contents of total cholesterol and cholesterol ester (P < 0.05), and increased SR-B I protein and mRNA expression (P < 0.01) in the foam cells in a dose-dependent manner. Estradiol can inhibit the formation of mononuclear/macrophage-derived foam cells by decreasing the contents of total cholesterol and cholesterol ester and up-regulating the expression of SR-B I in the foam cells.

Objective:To explore the application value of clinical case-based learning in medical imaging teaching.Methods:A total of 145 clinical medical students from three classes in the third year were enrolled and they were divided into three classes. One class took case-based learning, one class took traditional teaching, and one class took both. The teaching content was the preclinical medical professional course—Medical Imaging. Continuous variables were expressed in accordance with normal distribution (mean standard deviation). Differences in mean and median values were evaluated by using t test and the Mann-Whitney U test, respectively. Categorical data were compared using the chi-square test. Results:There was a significant difference between the combined teaching class and the case-based learning class or the traditional teaching class in the final exam ( P=0.002). There was also a significant difference between the combined teaching class and the traditional teaching class in the film reading quiz ( P=0.035). More than 70% of students recognized the case-based learning. Conclusion:Case-based learning is helpful to improve students' flexible application of relevant knowledge and skills of analysis and communication.
