Objective To construct and implement theSTARnurse training model, and discuss its application effect and the problems that should be paid attention to, and to provide operational cases and practical basis for nursing clinical education. Methods Through literature review and expert consultation, the framework and content of STAR nurse training model were set up and implemented. The questionnaire survey and semi structured in-depth interviews were conducted among the nurses in the hospital to evaluate the effect of improving the nurses′self-directed learning ability. Results After the implementation of the project, the scores of the three dimensions of self-management, desire for study and self-control were (3.67±0.57), (4.05±0.54), (3.99±0.50) points, which were higher than (3.55±0.49), (3.71± 0.52), (3.53±0.42) points before implementation. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05 or 0.01). The semi structured in-depth interviews showed that all the nurses believed that STAR nurse training model could promote independent learning and stimulate interest in learning. 14 nurses thought it was beneficial for the nurses to find the problems. Conclusions STAR nurse training model can create a favorable learning environment for nurses, and stimulate the learning motivation. It plays a positive role in improving nurses′ability of self-directed learning.

Objective To explore the status of emotional-social loneliness including emotional isolation,social isolation,emotional and social loneliness in patients with acute cerebral infraction,and to analyze the related factors.Methods A total of 122 patients with acute cerebral infraction admitted to the neurology department of 5 third-grade class-A hospitals from Jan.2017 to Oct.2017 were enrolled.Data was collected by self-reported questionnaires including patients' general data and the emotional-social loneliness questionnaire data.Results Among 122 patients with acute cerebral infraction,emotional isolation,social isolation,emotional loneliness and social loneliness were found in 48 cases(39.3％),60 cases(49.2％),40 cases(32.8％)and 36 cases(29.5％),respectively.The total average score for emotional isolation,social isolation,emotional loneliness and social loneliness were 8.3 ± 5.2,8.6 ± 5.1,7.5 ± 6.1,and 7.4 ± 5.5,respectively.The scores for emotional-social loneliness were associated with education level,monthly family income,occupations and the emotion state before disease,and were not associated with gender,marriage status and stroke history.Conclusions The prevalence of emotional-social loneliness is high in patients with acute cerebral infraction.Especially careful attention should be paid to patients with higher education level and retired with monthly family income ≥5 000 RMB.

Objective To investigate the chlorhexidine acetate-resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae) clinical isolates and to analyze the possible mechanisms and molecular epidemiology of re-sistant isolates. Methods A total of 332 K. pneumoniae clinical isolates were collected in the First Affilia-ted Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in 2015. Standard agar dilution was used to screen chlorhexidine acetate-resistant isolates. The minimum inhibition concentrations ( MIC) of chlorhexidine acetate to resistant isolates with and without the presence of carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone ( CCCP) , which was an efflux pump inhibitor, were analyzed. Efflux pump genes of cepA, qacE and qacΔE1 that carried by and ex-pressed in those isolates were detected by polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) and quantitative real-time PCR ( RT-qPCR) , respectively. The biofilm formation ability was measured by crystal violet staining. The homol-ogy among the chlorhexidine acetate-resistant isolates was investigated with multilocus sequence typing ( MLST) and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis ( PFGE) . Results Twenty-five K. pneumoniae strains were re-sistant to chlorhexidine acetate. The MIC values of chlorhexidine acetate for them were reduced by at least four-fold in the presence of CCCP. Strains carrying the genes of cepA, qacE and qacΔE1 accounted for 100％, 40％ and 40％, respectively. The expression of the efflux pump genes in the chlorhexidine acetate-resistant isolates was higher than that in the susceptible isolates. The biofilm formation ability of the chlo-rhexidine acetate-resistant isolates was better than that of the susceptible isolates. Furthermore, negative, weak-positive and positive biofilm formation ability was observed in four ( 16％) , 20 ( 80％) and one (4％) strains, respectively. The results of MLST and PFGE showed that the 25 chlorhexidine acetate-resist-ant isolates belonged to 19 different sequence types ( ST) with diverse PFGE patterns. Conclusions This study suggested that active efflux was the main mechanism of chlorhexidine acetate resistance in K. pneumoni-ae. The 25 chlorhexidine acetate-resistant K. pneumoniae strains possessed different biofilm formation ability and shared low homology.

Objective: To evaluate the in vitro antibiotic effects of colistin combined with meropenem, levofloxacin or fosfomycin against colistin-heteroresistant Acinetobacter baumannii (A.baumannii). Methods: A total of 576 A. baumannii clinical isolates were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from 2014 to 2015. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of colistin against A. baumannii were detected by broth dilution method. Colistin-heteroresistant A. baumannii isolates were screened using population analysis profiles (PAPs). MICs of colistin combined with meropenem, levofloxacin or fosfomycin, and the four drugs used alone against colistin-heteroresistant A. baumannii were detected by checkerboard method and broth dilution method. Fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI) was calculated to evaluate antibiotic effects. Results: None of the 576 A. baumannii isolates was resistant to colistin as indicated by the broth dilution method. Nine colistin-heteroresistant A. baumannii isolates were identified using PAPs. Compared with the MICs of colistin used alone, the MICs of colistin used in combination with meropenem, levofloxacin or fosfomycin against colistin-heteroresistant isolates were all decreased. Colistin-meropenem combination showed synergistic (55.6%), additive (33.3%) and indifferent effects (11.1%), but no antagonistic effect. Colistin-levofloxacin combination showed synergistic (55.6%), additive (22.2%) and indifferent effects (22.2%), but no antagonistic effect. Colistin-fosfomycin combination showed synergistic (77.8%) and additive (22.2%) effects, but no indifferent or antagonistic effect. Conclusion In vitro use of colistin in combination with meropenem, levofloxacin or fosfomycin has synergistic and additive antibacterial effects against colistin-heteroresistant A. baumannii. Combinations of colistin-meropenem and colistin-levofloxacin have fewer indifferent effects and no antagonistic effect.

Considering that photodynamic therapy (PDT)-induced oxygen consumption and microvascular damage could exacerbate hypoxia to drive more glycolysis and angiogenesis, a novel approach to potentiate PDT and overcome the resistances of hypoxia is avidly needed. Herein, morpholine-modified PEGylated bilirubin was proposed to co-deliver chlorin e6, a photosensitizer, and diclofenac (Dc). In acidic milieu, the presence of morpholine could enable the nanocarriers to selectively accumulate in tumor cells, while PDT-generated reactive oxidative species (ROS) resulted in the collapse of bilirubin nanoparticles and rapid release of Dc. Combining with Dc showed a higher rate of apoptosis over PDT alone and simultaneously triggered a domino effect, including blocking the activity and expression of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), interfering with lactate secretion, suppressing the activation of various angiogenic factors and thus obviating hypoxia-induced resistance-glycolysis and angiogenesis. In addition, inhibition of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) by Dc alleviated hypoxia-induced resistance. This study offered a sequentially responsive platform to achieve sufficient tumor enrichment, on-demand drug release and superior anti-tumor outcomes in vitro and in vivo.
