Modern Clinical Nursing 2016;15(1):62-65
Objective To explore the effect of community family nursing intervention on glycemic control of type 2 diabetic patients. Methods Ninety-two patients with type 2 diabetes after discharge in 6 communities of Tianhe District in Guangzhou were divided into a study group and a control group , 46 cases in each . The control group received routine care , while patients in the study group received additional community family nursing intervention, including personalized health education, diabetes family day and sharing, telephone follow-up and family home visits. The fasting plasma glucose, 2h-postprandial glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c were compared. Results There were no significant differences in fasting plasma glucose, 2h-postprandial glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (all P>0.05). After intervention, there were significant differences in the three eridoxes between the two groups(all P<0.05). Conclusion The community family nursing intervention is of great importance to control the blood glucose, improve the therapeutic compliance and self-management ability in patients with type 2 diabetes.

It is considered that the central nervous system (CNS) is an immunologically privileged organ, but its immunological privilege is not complete, and immunological rejection may also occurred after tissue transplantation. Neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation has developed a brand-new approach for the treatment of various CNS diseases. Despite the low immunogenicity of NSC, there are also troubles of immunological rejection. This article reviews the immunological characteristics of CNS, the mechanisms of immunological response and immunological rejection in CNS, as well as the problems of immunological rejection of NSC transplantation.

[Objective] To investigate the effect of sevoflurane and isoflurane anesthesia on the renal function of patients with severe fracture after surgery.[Methods] Sixty-two patients with severe fracture who needed surgery were enrolled and all received general anesthesia.All the patients were divided by random digits table method into two groups with 31 cases each:sevoflurane group(anesthesia maintenance with 1.5%-3.0% sevoflurane)and isoflurane group(anesthesia maintenance with 1.5%-3.0% isoflurane).The patients in two groups received 0.1-0.2 μg/(kg·min)remifentanll continuous intravenous infusion and atracuurium intermittent intravenous injection for anesthesia maintenance.Serum creatinine(SCr)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)in two groups after surgery were compared,as well as the number of hemodialysis.[Results]SCr and BUN at 1,3,7 d after surgery in two groups were significantly lower than those before surgery[seveflurane group:(517 ± 187),(163 ± 110),(103 ± 99)μ mol/L vs.(853 ± 220)μmol/L,(17.1 ± 7.8),(9.5 ± 4.1),(9.7 ± 3.8)mmol/L vs.(21.8 ± 9.3)mmol/L;isoflurane group:(539 ± 188),(136 ± 108),(101 ± 95)μ mol/L vs.(881 ± 220)μmol/L,(17.5 ± 7.4),(9.5 ± 3.5),(9.8 ± 3.3)mmol/Lvs.(20.0 ± 8.9)mmol/L](P < 0.05).SCr and BUN between two groups at every time point after surgery had no statistical significance(P > 0.05).There was 1 case(3.2%)in sevoflurane group needed hemodialysis within 7 d after surgery,as well as in isoflurane group,and there was no statistical significance between two groups(P>0.05).[Conclusions] For patients with severe fracture who need general anesthesia and surgery,sevoflurane and isoflurane both have no significant adverse reaction to renal function.Therefore,it is acceptable for the patients to use sevoflurane for anesthesia and it is worthy of clinical popularization and application.

Objective: To analyze and to predict the 1 year re-admission risk in patients of chronic heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF) by echocardiography.
Methods: A total of 313 HFrEF patients in our hospital community from 2007-01 to 2008-12 were studied. The patients were followed-up for (6-7) years and the end point was 1 year re-admission. All patients received routine echocardiography and the parameters included left ventricular ejection fraction of (LVEF), left ventricular diameter (LVd), pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), mitral regurgitation (MR), tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and pericardial effusion. Based on the above 6 parameters, the risk factors for 1 year re-admission were analyzed.
Results: Univariate analysis indicated that MR (HR=1.437, 95%CI 1.190-1.737, P=0.000), TR (HR=1.288, 95%CI 1.056-1.572, P=0.013) and pericardial effusion (HR=1.560, 95%CI 1.050-2.318, P=0.028) had better predictive value for 1 year re-admission. Multivariate analysis presented that MR (HR=1.404, 95%CI 1.159-1.701, P=0.001) took ifrst place for predicting the 1 year re-admission and pericardial effusion took second place (HR=1.410, 95%CI 1.030-1.928, P=0.032).
Conclusion: MR, TR and pericardial effusion were the independent predictors for 1 year readmission in HFrEF patients;while MR and pericardial effusion were the independent risk factors for 1 year re-admission.

Objective: To assess blood levels of renal function related influencing factors with baseline clinical parameters for predicting the risk of 8-year survival in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods: A total of 293 CHF patients admitted in our hospital from 2006-07 to 2009-11 were enrolled. The patients were followed-up until 2014-6-30, the end point was death. According to followed-up results, they were divided into 2 groups: Survival group,n=107 and Death group,n=186. All patients received routine renal function and electrolytes examination including blood levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid, sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, anion gap and phosphorus; GFR was calculated by MDRD formula. Baseline clinical parameters as left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were measured by echocardiography; blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded. The risk factors for 8-year survival in CHF patients were analyzed. Results: Compared with Survival group, Death group had increased LVEDD, urea nitrogen, creatinine and uric acid, while decreased LVEF, HR, GFR, blood sodium and calcium, allP<0.05. Univariate analysis indicated that LVEDD, LVEF, GFR, urea nitrogen, creatinine, uric acid, blood sodium, calcium and phosphorus had the better predictive value for the risk of 8-year survival in CHF patients, allP<0.05. Multivariate analysis presented that LVEDD, GFR and blood sodium had the highest predictive value for the risk of 8-year survival, allP<0.001; the next one was blood calcium,P<0.01. Conclusion: LVEDD, GFR, blood sodium and calcium were the independent predictors for the risk of 8-year survival in CHF patients.
