Objective To understand the current situation about flexible position switch of non-licensed nurses in Chongqing, to discuss the cause of the flexible position switch, and to provide basic information for constructing scientific managerial measure. Methods Using the stratified clustering method to sample the nurses from 18 hospitals of different ranks in Chongqing and investigated them with self-designed questionnaire. Results Among the 1145 non- licensed nurses joining the investigation, 42.53%and 52.49% of them showed the will to switch their positions or occupations, 84.89% of them objected their children to occupy themselves with nursing service. 68.56% non-licensed nurses believed that flexible position switching had influence on themselves, while 74.50% of them believed that flexible position switching had impacts on hospitals. The main cause of the flexible position switching of non-licensed nurses included: feeling their work not beyond exceptions、 not enough respect in hospital 、lack of further development, and so on. Conclusions The high rate of will for flexible position switch cause great influences on the development of hospitals and non-licensed nurses themselves. Better treatment and raising respect should be given to them in order to stabilize nursing team.

Objectives To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of late-onset group B streptococcal (GBS) sepsis. Methods From Jan. 2007 to Dec. 2011, iffteen neonates diagnosed with late onset GBS sepsis at discharge from NICU were retrospectively analyzed, meanwhile, thirty-four neonates diagnosed with late onset non-GBS Gram-positive bacteria sepsis at discharge were selected as controls during the same period. Results There were signiifcant differences in occurrence rates of shortness of breath, convulsion and apnea between late onset non-GBS sepsis group and late onset GBS sepsis group (P<0.05). The percentages of neonates with white blood cell count (CSF)>100×106/L, high-sensitivity C-reaction protein (hsCRP)>100 mg/L and glucose in CSF<3.11 mmol/L in late onset GBS sepsis group were higher than those in late onset non-GBS sepsis group (P<0.05). GBS was sensitive to penicillin, ampicillin, ceftriaxone, piperacillin/tazobactam, levolfoxacin and vancomycin. The rates of GBS resistance to erythromycin and gentamycin were both 87.5%. There were signiifcant differences in occurrence rates of meningitis, hydrocephalus and ependymitis between late onset GBS sepsis group and late onset non-GBS sepsis group (P<0.05), while no difference in mortality was found between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions The late onset GBS sepsis is in-sidious, atypical, with many complications and sequelae. It is important for the suspicious neonates to use effective antibiotics as early as possible.

Objective:To study the clinical effect of splenic arninopeptide combined with pulmicort on the bronchial asthma in children and its effect on the CD4+,CD8+ and serum IgE concentrations.Methods:88 cases of patients with acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma in our hospital from June 2015 to October 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,44 cases in each group.All the children were treated with cough and phlegm.In addition,the control group was given inhalation of Pulmicort suspension,the observation group of children was treated by spleen ammonia peptide oral freeze-dried powder on the basis of control group.The clinical efficacy,disappearance time of clinical symptoms,changes of lung function,hospitalization time and levels of CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,Serum IgE concentration before and after treatment were compared between two groups.Results:The total effective rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.01).After treatment,the disappearance time of cough,chest wheezing,wheezing and hospitalization time of observation group were significantly shorter than those of the control group (P＜0.01),the FVC,FEV1 and FEV1/FVC,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+ levels after treatment were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.01),and the serum IgE concentration was lower than that of the control group(P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions and CD8+ between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Splenic aminopeptide combined with Pulmicort could enhance the clinical efficacy of children with bronchial asthma,which could quickly improve the clinical symptoms and immune function with high safety.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of early measurement of serum inflammatory mediators for infectious pancreatic necrosis secondary to severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 166 patients who were admitted to our hospital from January 2012 to January 2017.According to the presence or absence of secondary infectious pancreatic necrosis,the patients were divided into infection group with 58 patients and non-infection group with 108 patients.The serum levels of inflammatory factors were compared between the two groups.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used for the analysis of indices with statistical significance.The independent samples t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups,and the chi -square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups.Results Of all 166 SAP patients,58 experienced secondary infectious pancreatic necrosis,resulting in an incidence rate of 34.9％.Compared with the non-infection group,the infection group had significantly higher serum lipase,procalcitonin (PCT),C-reactive protein (CRP),and APACHE Ⅱ score (t =8.679,20.416,18.429,and 8.563,all P ＜0.05).The ROC curve analysis showed that serum lipase,PCT,CRP,and APACHE Ⅱ score had areas under the ROC curve of 0.647,0.877,0.823,and 0.655,respectively,with cut-off values of 612.5 U/L,7.5 ng/ml,226.5 mg/L,and 16.5 points,sensitivities of 68.5％,91.2％,86.8％,and 60.5％,and specificities of 59.3％,83.6％,80.1％,and 68.7％,respectively.Conclusion The abnormally elevated serum levels of CRP and PCT have a certain predictive value for infectious pancreatic necrosis secondary to SAP with convenient and fast operation,and therefore,it holds promise for clinical application.

This study sought to determine the impact of dental fluorosis severity on demineralization and remineralization of human fluorosed teeth in vitro. Surface enamel microhardness was measured on the enamel blocks before and after demineralization and after remineralization. The results showed that after demineralization, the sequence of % Surface microhardness demineralization (% SMHD) was TFI4 (18.92 +/- 1.31) < TFI3 (20.50 +/- 1.32) < TFI2 (25.08 +/- 1.69) < TFI1 (27.77 +/- 1.79) < TFI0 (30.70 +/- 1.35) (P < 0.05), and there was no statistically significant differences between TFI1 (27.77 +/- 1.79) and the normal group TFI0 (30.70 +/- 1.35). After remineralization, the sequence of % Surface microhardness remineralization (% SMHR) was TFI1 (55.17 +/- 1.23) > TFI0 (53.97 +/- 3.05) > TFI2 (49.17 +/- 1.81) > TFI3 (44.85 +/- 1.89) > TFI4 (36.51 +/- 2.95) (P < 0.05). Moderately fluorosed enamel showed a significatnt resistance to caries, but mildly fluorosed enamel could get better remineralization. These facts and figures deserve clinicians' attention.

Objective:To compare the clinical value of video laryngoscopy and conventional laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation in neonatal resuscitation.Methods:From July 2018, 100 cases of premature or asphyxia infants born in our hospital requiring tracheal intubation were enrolled. The infants were randomly assigned into video laryngoscopy group and conventional laryngoscopy group with 50 cases in each group. The time needed for intubation, the first time success rate and complications associated with intubation were compared between the two groups.Results:The time needed for intubation (21.7±2.7)s vs.(23.7±1.8)s and the first time success rate [98.0% (49/50) vs. 86.0% (43/50)] were significantly better in the video laryngoscopy group than the conventional laryngoscopy group ( P<0.05). The incidence of intubation complications showed no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Using video laryngoscopy, the time needed for tracheal intubation is shorter and the first time success rate is higher, without more complications. Video laryngoscopy can be safely used in tracheal intubation of neonatal resuscitation.

To explore the effect of IL-33 on various tumor types,exogenous injection of recombinant mouse IL-33 protein (mIL-33) was used to study the efficacy of different subcutaneous tumor-bearing mouse models. In this study,mIL-33 has been found to significantly inhibit the growth of liver,lung,gastric,prostate,and colon cancers. However,the inhibition of tumor growth by mIL-33 was not completely consistent in different types of tumor. A lower dose of mIL-33 (10 μg/kg) significantly inhibited tumor growth in subcutaneous tumor-bearing mice of liver,lung,and gastric cancers,while a higher dose of mIL-33 (90 μg/kg) was required to exert the corresponding antitumor effect in subcutaneous tumor-bearing mouse models with prostate and colon cancers. In addition,the growth inhibitory effect of mIL-33 on subcutaneous tumors of colon cancer was also correlated with the duration of administration and the stage of tumor progression. The results of this study indicate that mIL-33 significantly inhibits the growth of a variety of tumors,suggesting that IL-33 might be an effective target for tumor treatment.

Objective: To explore the genetic basis for a fetus with Dandy-Walker malformation. Methods: G-banding chromosomal karotyping, single nucleotide polymorphism microarray (SNP array) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were carried out for the fetus. Chromosomal karyotyping and FISH assay were also carried out for both parents. Results: SNP array has detected a 4266 kb microdeletion at 6p25.3p25.1 in the fetus, which was confirmed by FISH. FISH analysis of the parents demonstrated that the father has carried a cryptic t(6; 14)(p25.1; p13) translocation, while the fetus has a der(6)t(6; 14)(p25.1; p13) derived the paternal translocation. Conclusion The der(6)t(6; 14)(p25.1; p13) probably underlies the Dandy-Walker malformation in the fetus. The 6p25.3p25.1 microdeletion is due to unbalanced gametes produced by the father’s cryptic balanced translocation.

OBJECTIVE: To diagnose a fetus with Phelan-McDermid syndrome (PMS) using various techniques. METHODS: Single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP Array), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were applied in conjunction for the prenatal diagnosis of the fetus. RESULTS: SNP Array detected a 4.03 Mb microdeletion at 22q13.31q13.33 in the fetus, which was confirmed by FISH and MLPA. FISH analysis of the parents suggested that the 22q13.31q13.33 deletion has a de novo origin. CONCLUSION Combined use of various techniques can enable accurate prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling.
