Objective To revise the Symptom Distress Scale for postoperative patients with pituitary tumor and to test its reliability and validity. Methods On the base of previous qualitative interview and literature review, Delphi consultation was performed to identify items of the Symptom Distress Scale for postoperative patients with pituitary tumor. By convenience sampling method, totally 191 patients from four first-class ternary hospitals in Jiangsu province were investigated effectively by this scale. Results A scale of 4 factors and 16 items was identified by expert interviews, item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and the four factors could explain 69.812%of the variance. The Cronbachαcoefficient of the scale was 0.920, the content validity index was 0.915, and the interrater reliability was 0.860. Conclusions Symptom Distress Scale for postoperative patients with pituitary tumor has good reliability and validity to assess the symptom distress of pituitary tumor patients after operation.

Objective To understand the prevalence and the nursing status of incontinence and incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD),analyze the risk factors of the occurrence of IAD,and to provide effective measures for the prevention and management of IAD.Methods Using the questionnaire survey, 1 318 hospitalized patients in 2 grade three hospitals of Suzhou were investigated,and then the results were analyzed.Results The prevalence of incontinence was 10.70%(141/1 318),among the prevalence of urinary incontinence was 4.63%(61/1 318),fecal incontinence was 4.32%(57/1 318);with 24.11%(34/141) of incontinent patients having IAD;disposable pad and briefs were the most common containment devices,only 36.17% (51/141) of the incontinent inpatients using skin protectant after perineal skin clean.Single factor analysis revealed that IAD was related with wards, types of incontinence, character of stools, frequency of feces, antibiotics, modes of nutrition support, Braden scores, level of albumin and prealbumin.Unconditional Logistic regression indicated that risk factors of IAD included the level of serum albumin (OR=0.769, P< 0.05), Braden scores(OR=0.335, P< 0.05) and frequency of feces(OR=11.076, P < 0.05).Conclusions Incontinence and IAD are common in hospitalized patients,low serum albumin, low Braden scores and high frequency of feces are the risk factors of IAD.The clinical nurses have not paied enough attention on the prevention of IAD, lacked relevant knowledge and skin care regimen.

Impaired awareness of hypoglycemia is an acquired complication of insulin therapy, which affects people with type 1 and insulin-treated type 2 diabetes mellitus, whereby the ability to perceive the onset of hypoglycemia becomes diminished or absent, which not only affects life health, but also causes fear of hypoglycemia , and causing a serious burden on the quality of life. The paper reviews the concept,the assessment tools,the occurrence,the influencing factors and intervention strategies of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia.In order to provide suggestions for the researches of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia in China.

Objective To analyze the research hotspots and future trend of nursing safety. Methods Biclustering analysis was adopted to analyze the nursing safety literature in PubMed and Wanfang databases from 2012 to 2016 through the bibliographic contribution system BICOMB and graph clustering toolkit gCLUTO 1.0. Results Domestic nursing safety research fronts from 2012 to 2016 focused on adverse events,quality care services, quality evaluation indicators, work errors and safety culture. On the other hand,overseas nursing safety researches focused on system analysis, nursing quality sensitive indicators, teamwork and nursing safety, and the impacts of nursing work environment on quality and safety. Conclusions Comprehensive means of multi-disciplinary teamwork can be called into play for in-depth study of deloping adverse events assessment tools, establishing a unified nursing sensitive indicator system and continuous improvement. The future research trends are establishing a national standardized nursing adverse events reporting system, using information technology to build a big data platform for information sharing and exploring nursing safety from the security environment and organization management.

Morinda genus of Rubiaceae has been widely used in medicine at home and abroad. Many parts of Morinda tree are utilized in research, mainly including roots, stems, leaves, branches and seeds. Through the research of online databases, the chemical components and biological activities of the iridoids in Morinda genus were summarized in this paper. Up to now, more than 50 kinds of iridoids have been identified. In addition, more and more studies proved that Morinda iridoids might benefit human via such anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, anti-oxidation, anti-tumor and bone protection. The theoretical basis was provided for the further development and utilization of the iridoids in Morinda genus.

As main recipient cells for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine alveolar macrophage (PAM) are involved in the progress of several highly pathogenic virus infections. However, due to the fact that the PAM cells can only be obtained from primary tissues, research on PAM-based virus-host interactions remains challenging. The improvement of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) technology provides a new strategy to develop IPSCs-derived PAM cells. Since the CD163 is a macrophage-specific marker and a validated receptor essential for PRRSV infection, generation of stable porcine induced pluripotent stem cells lines containing CD163 reporter system play important roles in the investigation of IPSCs-PAM transition and PAM-based virus-host interaction. Based on the CRISPR/Cas9- mediated gene editing system, we designed a sgRNA targeting CD163 locus and constructed the corresponding donor vectors. To test whether this reporter system has the expected function, the reporter system was introduced into primary PAM cells to detect the expression of RFP. To validate the low effect on stem cell pluripotency, we generated porcine iPSC lines containing CD163 reporter and assessed the pluripotency through multiple assays such as alkaline phosphatase staining, immunofluorescent staining, and EdU staining. The red-fluorescent protein (RFP) expression was detected in CD163-edited PAM cells, suggesting that our reporter system indeed has the ability to reflect the expression of gene CD163. Compared with wild-type (WT) iPSCs, the CD163 reporter-iPSCs display similar pluripotency-associated transcription factors expression. Besides, cells with the reporter system showed consistent cell morphology and proliferation ability as compared to WT iPSCs, indicating that the edited-cells have no effect on stem cell pluripotency. In conclusion, we generated porcine iPSCs that contain a CD163 reporter system. Our results demonstrated that this reporter system was functional and safe. This study provides a platform to investigate the iPS-PAM development and virus-host interaction in PAM cells.
