Objective To develop a suitable instrument for measuring health beliefs related to reproductive tract infections (RTIs) and testing its reliability and validity. Methods Within the framework of the Health Belief Model, 500 questionnaires of health beliefs related to RTIs were collected, its reliability and validity was analyzed. Results The instrument contained two subscales, all content validity index(CVI)were 1.0. RTIs-related health belief subscale extracted four factors, the cumulative variance was 75.91%;RTIs-related self-efficacy subscale extracted four factors,the cumulative variance was 68.19%. Scale statistics consisted with the structure and design structure. The dimensions Cronbach's α coefficient, test-retest reliability, split half reliability were greater than 0.70. Conclusions This scale has good reliability and validity and can be used for measuring health beliefs related to reproductive tract infections in women of childbearing age.

Objective To investigate the role of connexin 43(Cx43)in the apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC and its possible mechanism.Methods pcDNA-Cx43,pcDNA-Cx43N,pcDNA3.0,siRNA-Cx43 and siRNA-NC were transfected into BxPC3 cells via liposome method.Cx43 protein and Cytochrome C(Cyt C)concentration was determined by Western blot,and the apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V/PI binding assay.The mitechondria apoptosis pathway involved in Cx43 associated apoptosis was examined which contains the depolarization of mitechondrial membrane potential (MMP);fluorospectrophotometer was used to measure the activities of caspase-3 and caspase-9. Gap junction intercellular communication(GJIC) was determined by dye-transfer method.Results Cx43 protein expression increased after BxPC3 transfeetion,apoptosis rate increased from(6.35±0.43)%in empty vector transfection group to(14.29±1.24)%;after H202 treatment,apoptosis rate increased from(20.34±2.47)%to(31.27±2.56)%(P<0.05).Meanwhile,mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased,Cyt C was increasingly released from mitochondria,caspases activities were increased;after siRNA43 interference,apoptosis rate decreased from(7.42±0.47)% to(5.19±1.37)%,after H_2O_2 treatment,apoptosis rate decreased from (19.43±1.71)%to(11.67±1.97)%(P<0.05).Decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and Cyt C release were observed,caspases activities were decreased.GJIC of pcDNA-Cx 43 transfection group increased from 14.52±0.57 to 23.05±3.84.and it increased from 1.70 ±0.24 to 3.84 ±0.45 in the presence of β-GA(P<0.05).But the apoptosis rate was not significantly different.Conclusions Cx43 could promote BxPC3 apoptosis via mitochondrial apoptotic signal pathway,and the possible mechanism included signal pathway other than GJIC.

Objective To explore the association between urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and neonatal asphyxia,and to clarify the application value of urinary lactate/creatinine ratio in forecasting the hypoxie-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE)in neonates.Methods Using case-control study design method,40 cases of neonatal asphyxia infants were selected as asphyctic group and 40 healthy infants were used as control group.The urinary lactate/creatinine ratio in the first day after birth, urinary N-Acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG)/creatinine and the score of Apgar of 80 infants were detected.The relationship between the urinary lactate/creatinine ratio,urinary NAG/creatinine ratio, as well as the score of Apgar and HIE were analyzed and compared in asphyctic group and control group.Results The Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min in asphyctic group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.01). The urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and urinary NAG/creatinine ratio in asphyctic group 1 d after birth were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.01).There was significantly negative correlation between the urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and the 1-min and 5-min Apgar scores(r=-0.636,P<0.001;r=-0.883,P<0.01),but there was a significantly positive correlation between the urinary lactate/creatinine ratio and urinary NAG/creatinine ratio(r=0.433,P<0.01).Conclusion The urinary lactate/creatinine ratio may have decisive roles in prognosis evaluation of neonatal asphyxia,and so as the important foundation for the prediction of HIE.

To explore the status of the job satisfaction of the authorized and contract staff in a university affiliated hospital in the dilution situation of the hospital staffing management, and to discuss the key factors and reasons affecting the satisfaction difference. The questionnaire was developed based on Minnesota Satisfaction short form with extra items covering “the comprehensive satisfaction evaluation”. According to the hospital population of staff, the cluster random sampling method was used, and survey was conducted on the spot. Both authorized staff and the contract staff showed high degree of satisfaction. But the contract staff showed higher degree of satisfaction of leadership and their own responsibility sense than the authorized staff. The contract female staff showed higher degree of overall satisfaction than the authorized female staff. The discussion based on the results showed that new human resource management mode, new mechanism of flexible management of staff, targeted staff with targeted management.

To explore the patterns and ideas of medical cooperation between Beijing and Hebei Chinese Medicine hospitals under the background of the integration of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei regions. By searching the 2015 China statistical yearbook for health, a survey was conducted among doctors and patients in a Hebei hospital, which is cooperate with the Beijing hospital. We found that Beijing-Tianjin regional medical resources were imbalanced, and Hebei medical resources were insufficient, and patients and doctors were satisfied with the cooperation. There are still some difficulties in Chinese medicine hospital of Beijing and Tianjin cooperation, and many departments need to work together to promote Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei rational allocation of medical resources.

Objective:To describe the current situation in the nursing practice and their turnover intention in township health centers, and to analyze the changing potential influence in the nursing practice scope and workloads on their intention to leave those health centers. Methods:By means of a questionnaire, we conducted a survey on 167 nurses and interviewed 44 of them, all from 45 township hospitals within three provinces in China. Results:Since the healthcare system reform, the nursing workload in the township health centers significantly increased. 62% of the re-spondents considered their workload as heavy. Typically, the nursing work accounted for about 60% and the public health service work accounted for only 21% of the working hours. About 30% of the respondents were intended to leave their current job. The participating public health service was associated with intention to leave the job after con-trolling the province, workload, marital status, formal position, educational level and length of nursing service (P<0. 05). Conclusions:Since the healthcare system reform, the nursing practice scope in township health centers has been expanded and the workload increased considerably. But so far, expanding the scope of the nursing work may have potentials in reducing the intention of nurses to leave their current positions.

Objective To observe the effect of scalp acupuncture combined with cognitive training on the cognitive function of stroke patients in the acute stage. Methods 68 stroke patients with cognitive disorder were divided into the treatment group (n=34) and the control group (n=34). All patients of two groups were treated with routine therapy and cognitive rehabilitation training by professional physiotherapists, but the treatment group were added with scalp acupuncture. They were regularly evaluated with Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognition Assessment (LOTCA) before and 2 months after treatment. Results The scores of LOTCA significantly improved in the two groups after treatment (P<0.05), and improvement of the treatment group was better than those of the control group（P<0.05）. Conclusion The scalp acupuncture combined with cognitive training can significantly improve the acute stroke patients with cognitive disorder.

Objective To investigate the critical value of TSH-stimulated Tg(sTg) in the diagnosis of metastasis from DTC, and to evaluate the diagnostic value of the ratio of sTg to suppressed Tg (sTg/suppressed Tg).Methods A total of 330 post-operative DTC patients(87 males, 243 females, age range: 12-70 years)who underwent thyroid remnant ablation from August 2008 to December 2014 were retrospectively reviewed.Their serum TgAb levels were normal.The patients were divided into non-metastasis group(147 cases)and metastasis group(183 cases) according to results of ultrasonography, CT and WBS.The difference of sTg between the two groups were compared by Mann-Whitney rank sum test.ROC curve was used to analyze the relationship between sTg, sTg/suppressed Tg ratio and metastasis, the cutoff value was calculated.Results The sTg was significantly different between the non-metastasis group and metastasis group: 1.0 (0.1, 2.0) μg/L vs 36.5 (3.9, 126.7) μg/L;u=-6.642, P<0.05.The AUC for ROC curve in metastasis group was 0.85, and the cutoff value was 2.05 μg/L, with the sensitivity 85.2%, specificity 67.3%, and accuracy 82.3%.While sTg<2.05 μg/L, the AUC of sTg/suppressed Tg ratio was 0.941, and the cutoff value was 4.3, with the sensitivity 93.3%, specificity 88.2%, and accuracy 92.3%.Conclusions The sTg has a specific value for the diagnosis of metastasis from DTC after operation and the cutoff value is 2.05 μg/L in this set of patients.The ratio of sTg/suppressed Tg could be used to correct the sTg and to improve the diagnostic sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the effect of occupational therapy on motor function of upper limbs and activities of daily living(ADL)of patients with hemiplegia.Methods 51 patients with hemiplegia were randomly divided into the treatment group(n=26)and control group(n=25).Both two groups were received routine training,and besides,patients in the treatment group were added with occupational therapy.The motor function of upper limbs was evaluated by Fugl-Meyer scale before and after treatment,and ADL and hand function were also evaluated at same time.Results After treatment,the scores of Fugl-Meyer scale,ADL and hand function of all patients in two groups improved(P<0.05),but the therapeutic effect of the treatment group was superior to the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The occupational therapy can strengthen the upper limbs and hands function,and effectively improve fine motors.

Necrotizing pneumonia (NP) is a serious complication of community-acquired pneumonia in children.In recent years, with the deepening understanding of pediatricians, reports on NP have increased year by year.The early lesion of NP is characterized by the consolidation of lung tissue.With the progression of the disease, the involved lung tissue appears liquefaction and necrosis, and eventually multiple cysts or cavities are formed.Clinical diagnosis is mainly based on imaging.Previous studies have shown that NP is mostly found in streptococcus pneumoniae and staphylococcus aureus infections.In recent years, mycoplasma pneumoniae has been found to be the main pathogen of necrotizing pneumonia, and adenovirus and influenza virus infections have also been frequently reported.On the basis of reasonable anti-infection treatment, most of the children have a good prognosis by treatement of glucocorticoid, gamma globulin, bronchoscope lavage, closed thoracic drainage, etc.
