Objective:To provide a reference for the hierarchical management of clinical nurses in top three hospitals, the hierarchical management evaluation system was conducted and evaluated in the present study.Methods:On the context of three-dimensional structure theory of medical quality, the Delphi method was applied to conduct two rounds of correspondence consultation among 23 nursing experts, and then related indexes were established based on the evaluation results and recommendations.Results:An evaluation system for hierarchical management of clinical nurse in top three hospitals was finally constructed, which included 3 first-grade and 19 second-grade indexes. The effective recovery rate of the two rounds of expert questionnaires and authority Cr of two rounds of expert consultation were 100% and 0.915, respectively. The Kendall coefficients of concordance for significance and operability of the first-grade and second-grade indexes were 0.353/0.515 and 0.344/0.469, respectively ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The hierarchical management of clinical nurses in top three hospitals constructed based on three-dimensional structure theory has reliability and feasibility.

Objective:To investigate the role of peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) in anti-β 2GP1/β 2GP1 complex-induced formation of neutrophil extracellular trapping networks (NETs). Methods:Peripheral blood neutrophils were isolated from healthy humans by density gradient centrifugation. PAD4 expression was detected by Western blot after the neutrophils were incubated with anti-β 2GP1/β 2GP1 complex (100 μg/ml) for a certain period of time. PAD4 inhibitor Cl-amidine (10 μmol/L) was used to pretreat neutrophils. Changes in the expression of citrullinated histone 3 (CitH3) at protein level and the relative content of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-DNA were detected by Western blot and ELISA, respectively. A mouse thrombus model of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) was established by inferior vena cava stenosis. Intervention experiments were performed by intraperitoneal injection of Cl-amidine (50 mg/kg). The expression of CitH3 at protein level in plasma was detected by Western blot. The concentration of circulating free DNA (cf-DNA) in plasma was measured with fluorescent staining. Thrombus in inferior vena cava was collected and weighted to evaluate whether inhibiting the activity of PAD4 would suppress the APS-IgG-induced formation of NETs and thrombosis. Differences among groups were analyzed by t test or one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results:The expression of PAD4 induced by anti-β 2GP1/β 2GP1 complex was significantly down-regulated in the cytoplasm, but increased in the nucleus [(3.67±0.32) vs (1.47±0.19), t=10.22, P<0.05; (0.57±0.19) vs (2.97±0.31), t=11.49, P<0.05]. Cl-amidine significantly inhibited the anti-β 2GP1/β 2GP1 complex-induced expression of CitH3 protein by neutrophils [(2.46±0.47) vs (0.46±0.13), t=12.24, P<0.01], and reduced the MPO-DNA content in the culture supernatants [(4.09±0.94) vs (2.80±0.57), t=4.23, P<0.05]. In vivo, Cl-amidine significantly inhibited the expression of CitH3 protein [(3.97±0.56) vs (1.09±0.45), t=11.83, P<0.01] and decreased the content of cf-DNA [(2 685.0±735.8) vs (1 784.0±577.0), t=3.93, P<0.05] in plasma of APS mice. Compared with the experimental APS mice in the control group, the weight of thrombus in the APS mice pretreated with Cl-amidine was significantly reduced [(8.22±3.06) vs (4.89±1.90), t=2.27, P<0.05]. Conclusions:PAD4 was involved in the formation of NETs induced by anti-β 2GP1/β 2GP1 complex, which might play an important role in APS thrombosis.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of Feining Paidu decoction on refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in child patients. MethodA randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted, with 96 child patients randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, each containing 48 cases. The control group received intravenous azithromycin (10 mg·kg-1·d-1) for 7 days, intravenous methylprednisolone (1 mg·kg-1·d-1) for 3 days, along with supportive treatments such as fluid infusion and antipyretics. The observation group received oral administration of Feining Paidu decoction once a day for 7 days. Changes in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores, clinical efficacy, serum soluble B7-H3 (sB7-H3), serum inflammatory factors, coagulation function, and lung imaging [computer tomography(CT)] scores were observed in both groups. Adverse reaction events were also recorded. ResultThe total effective rate in the observation group was 95.74% (45/47), significantly higher than 80.43% (37/46) in the control group (Z=-3.702, P<0.01). Compared with the results before treatment, TCM syndrome scores, lung imaging scores, sB7-H3, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), D-dimer (D-D), and fibrinogen (FIB) levels in both groups all significantly decreased after treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01). After treatment, the observation group showed significantly better results in these indicators than the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in thrombin time (TT) in the control group before and after treatment, while the observation group showed a significant prolongation after treatment (P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) between the two groups before treatment, and no serious adverse reactions occurred in either group. ConclusionFeining Paidu decoction combined with conventional treatment can alleviate inflammatory responses, improve hypercoagulable states, promote the absorption of pulmonary inflammation, and enhance the clinical efficacy of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in children.
