OBJECTIVE The research aimed to investigate the incidence,clinical characteristics and risk factors of nosocomial infection in patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU,and explore the corresponding prevention procedures.METHODS Active surveillance was carried out by professional fulltime staff.The patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU above 48 hours were selected for the hospital infection surveillance,and the patients after tracheal intubation within 48 hours were also included.RESULTS The incidence of nosocomial infection was 54.28%,and the nosocomial infection were found in 69(65.71%) of the 105 cases.The major complication was mechanical ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP).The risk factors were more than four times invasive operation and,tracheotomy(P

Objective To explore the effect of cognitive-behavioral method on healthy behavior selection of in-patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods All patients with type 2 diabetes involved in this study were divided into the experimental group(99 patients) and the control group(96 patients). The experimental group was given health education with cognitive behavioral method, and the control group received only common health education. The comparison on the knowledge about diabetes mellitus and indicators of glucose metabolism on the first and 6th months between the two groups was performed. Results The knowledge about diabetes mellitus and indicators of glucose metabolism on the first and 6th months in the experimental group were better than those in the control group. Conclusions Cognitive-behavioral method can increase the treatment compliance of in-patients with type 2 diabetes and improve the glucose metabolism indicators, and created favorable condition for prevention of diabetes complications.

Background: High concentrations of particulate matter less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM2.5) in poultry houses is an important cause of respiratory disease in animals and humans. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that can induce severe respiratory disease in animals under stress or with abnormal immune functions. When excessively high concentrations of PM2.5 in poultry houses damage the respiratory system and impair host immunity, secondary infections with P. aeruginosa can occur and produce a more intense inflammatory response, resulting in more severe lung injury. Objectives: In this study, we focused on the synergistic induction of inflammatory injury in the respiratory system and the related molecular mechanisms induced by PM2.5 and P. aeruginosa in poultry houses. Methods: High-throughput 16S rDNA sequence analysis was used for characterizing the bacterial diversity and relative abundance of the PM2.5 samples, and the effects of PM2.5 and P. aeruginosa stimulation on inflammation were detected by in vitro and in vivo. Results: Sequencing results indicated that the PM2.5 in poultry houses contained a high abundance of potentially pathogenic genera, such as Pseudomonas (2.94%). The lung tissues of mice had more significant pathological damage when co-stimulated by PM2.5 and P. aeruginosa, and it can increase the expression levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α through nuclear factor (NF)-κB pathway in vivo and in vitro. Conclusions The results confirmed that poultry house PM2.5 in combination with P. aeruginosa could aggravate the inflammatory response and cause more severe respiratory system injuries through a process closely related to the activation of the NF-κB pathway.
