Objective We aimed to provide references for nurses allocation by selecting the nursing items and measuring nursing time. Methods We recorded the nursing workload of 130 nurses in 10 wards within one week by literature review, Delphi method and questionnaire investigation. Results Totally 125 items of nursing items were included,101 of which were direct nursing items and 24 of which were indirect ones.The average time per day per patient was 185.1 minutes for level one nursing,95.4 minutes for level two nursing, 58.5 minutes for level three nursing.Average nursing time per day,working time per day per nurse and nursing time per day for per patient in each unit had statistical difference,P<0.05.The time for direct nursing items was 64.13% and for indirect nursing items was 35.87%. Conclusions Allocation of nurses according to measurement of nursing time could reach the aim of reasonable allocation and effective utilization of nursing human resource.

Objective To evaluate the development of the sphenooccipital synchondrosis on high resolution CT scans.Methods 269 cases,HRCT findings of the sphenoocipital synchondrosis ranged in age from 3 months to 74 years old were analysed.Four points were assessed on HRCT scans (a) The pattern of the synchondrosis, (b) The location and time of appearance of the ossification center in the synchondrosis, (c) The vestige of the synchondrosis after fusion of the sphenoid and occipital bones and (d) The development of sphenoid sinus.Results The pattern of the sphenooccipital synchondrosis could be classified into three types, including complete opening, partial and complete closure. The spheno-occipital synchondrosis was variable in shapes in opening group,a notch existed in 57 cases, the mean of the thickness of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis was 1.8 mm, there was negative correlation between the thickness of the synchondrosis and the age (r= -0.92,P

OBJECTIVE:To study distribution and targeting of Gardenia jasminoides extract niosomes in rats. METHODS:G. jasminoides extract niosomes were prepared by modified thin film dispersion method. 30 rats were randomly divided into G. jasmin-oides extract group(57 mg/kg)and G. jasminoides extract liposome group(131 mg/kg)according to their weight. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically,once a day,for consecutive 7 days. 1 h after last administration,heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney tissue were isolated,and HPLC method was adopted to the contents of active ingredients gardenoside in them. The targeting of G. jasminoides extract niosomes was evaluated by DTI quantitatively. RESULTS:Compared with G. jasminoides extract group, the contents of gardenoside in heart,spleen and brain tissue of rats increased significantly in G. jasminoides extract niosomes group (P<0.01),and DTI were 1.718,1.972 and 13.071;the contents of gardenoside in liver and kidney decreased significantly (P<0.01),and DTI were 0.431 and 0.467,respectively. CONCLUSIONS:G. jasminoides extract niosomes change the distribution of gardenoside in rats,showing brain targeting effect and decreasing first pass effect for liver.

The protective effect of TGPs on acute liver damage induced by carbon tetrachloride ( CCl4 ) was investigated in mice . TGPs ( 40 or 80mg/kg?d ? 3d, ip ) reduced the elevation of plasma or serume gl- utamic pyruvic transaminase ( GPT ) and plasma lactate dehydroge-nase ( LDH ) in CCl4-intoxicated mice, but if had no significant influence on the elevation of plasma glutamic oxalacetic transaminase ( GOT).TGPs (40mg/kg?d ? 3d, ip ) showed a protective effect on the histopathologic changes of liver injury induced by CCl4. The results suggest that TGPs may a protect against hepatic damage.

Objective To assess the predicting value of homocysteine ( HCY), low density lipoprotein cholesterin (LDL-C) and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) for women with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods To choose 115 patients with CAD and 102 patients of non-CAD;Homocysteine, LDL-C and IMT were assayed respectively;comparison and correlation analysis were performed based on genders. Results The rates for hyperhomocysteinemia and High Lipoproteinaemia in female CAD patients are 59. 6% and 75.0%,respectively,while they are 69. 9% and 78.6% for male CAD patients,which are both remarkably higher than 23.0% ,26.7%, 22. 2% and 23.6% in non-CAD patients ( Ps ＜ 0. 05 ). ROC curve shows that the best diagnostic boundary point is 0.953 mm for female IMT and 1. 021 mm for male IMT. At the boundary point,the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value are 83.7% ,91.4% ,95.7% and 63. 8% in female, much higher than 62.9%, 65.3%, 76.2% and 53.3% in male. Conclusion hyperhomocysteinemia, high lipoproteinaemia are the important risk factors for women with coronary artery disease;IMT might be used as the predictor of CAD, which have more advantages for female than for male patients.

Objective Through observing clinical effects of Western medicine,Chinese medicine and Chinese combined with western medicine in the treatment of depressive disorder (DD),the author tried to investigate a safer,more effective and obedient therapeutic method. Methods 120 DD patients were randomly recruited into three groups.Patients in group A were orally given clomipramine 25mg,3/d and Jieyu Huatan mixture 50ml,2/d;Patients in group B were orally given Jieyu Huatan mixture 50ml,2/d;Patients in group C were orally given clomipramine 25rag,3/d.After 6 weeks,Hamilton's depression (HAMD) and treatment emergent symptom scale (TESS) scale were used to assess the efficacy and safety.Results Altogether116 patients completed the whole treatment.Total clinical effective rate,effective rate of symptom improvement,and HAMD total cut-rate were 95.00%,92.50%,69.13±29.47% in the group A,69.23%,64.10%,53.22±25.78 % in the group,and 70.27%,64.87%,53.47±26.29% in the group C respectively.Patients in the group A were significantly better than the other two groups (P＜0.01) in terms of the indications mentioned above,while no significant difference showed between the group B and the group C (P＞0.05).Meanwhile the TESS score in the group A and B was lower than the group C (P＜0.01),and there was no significant difference between the group A and the group B (P＞0.05).Conelusion The treatment of Jieyu Huatan mixture combined with clomipramine is more effective and faster onset of action,having fewer side effects and reasonable cost.This method is a good way in the treatment of depressive disorder.

Objective To review recent studies on Muir Torre syndrome (MTS) and to improve the knowledge about MTS.Methods The literatures in recent years on clinic and gene research of MTS were reviewed.Results MTS was is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the predisposition to both sebaceous tumors (or multiple keratoacanthomas) and internal malignancies. Gastrointestinal cancers were the most common kind of internal malignancies in MTS patients(61%),followed by genitourinary cancers(22%). In most cases(56%),sebaceous tumors appeared after the emergence of internal maliganancy. Both hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer(HNPCC) and MTS were caused by germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair genes. MTS patients exhibit significantly more mutations in the hMSH2 than in the hMLH1. In these cases , both internal and skin tumors showed the characteristic of high microsatellite instability(MSI).Conclusion The presence of sebaceous tumors(or multiple keratoacanthomas) necessitates the search for internal malignancies. It is mandatory that patients with MTS, as patients with HNPCC, should be regularly followed up to search new malignancies. Evaluation and monitoring of the family members of patients are also necessary. The patients and their families should be counseled for genetic test. Sequencing the hMSH2 gene should be the prior selection of further examinations when clinical manifestations, history and laboratory tests suggest MTS.
