Objective To explore the methods and mesures for the pre-analytical quality control of test specimen and to improve the accuracy and reliability of test results.Methods According to the relevant requirements of IS015189,various measures for the specimen circulation process and collection technology two aspects were taken to control the full links of clinical specimen collection and transport,and the incidence of unqualified specimen before and after the improvements were analyzed.Results After the imple-mentation of the improvement measures,the incidence of unqualified specimens was decreased significantly.Conclusion Implemen-tation of the whole aspect of pre-analytical quality control can effectively improve the quality of specimen in order to improve the test quality.

Objective:To analyze the current status of frailty in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery, explore its risk factors, and establish a predictive model of frailty in order to provide targeted and predictive nursing programs.Methods:A total of 205 cardiac surgery patients admitted to the first affiliated hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from March 2015 to January 2019 were selected as the study subjects. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether they were frail: the frailty group ( n=78) and the control group ( n=127). Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors that affect the frailty of elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the effectiveness of model X [consisting of body mass index (BMI), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score, number of diseased patients, and number of drugs] in diagnosing frailty in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Results:Of the 205 patients, 78 (38.05%) showed frailty. The proportion of high school education level and above, Tinetti Gaitassessment (TGA) score≥24 and MMSE score≥27 in the frailty group was lower than that in the control group, and the proportion of Geriatric Depression Scale-15 (GDS-15) score≥7, the number of diseases≥3 and the number of drugs≥5 in the frailty group was higher than that in the control group ( χ2 value was 9.254-26.061, P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, MMSE score, number of diseased, and number of medications were independent risk factors for frailty in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery ( OR value was 0.032-5.275, P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve, sensitivity and specificity of frailty in elderly cardiac surgery patients assessed by model X were 0.913, 75.61% and 96.77%, respectively. Conclusion:The incidence of frailty is higher in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Model X can diagnose the frailty of elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery and help clinical nurses to carry out targeted care.

Objective: To explore the influence of comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) course based on International Technical Guidance onthe sexual psychological health of middle school students during puberty, and to provide a reference for mental health promotion. Methods: This study used Adolescent Sexual Psychological Health Questionnaire as measuring tool and self-made textbook on sexuality education entitled Love and Life: Junior High School Students’ Sexual Health Education Textbook as intervention. Measurements were set before and after the first semester together with the end of the second semester, respectively were pretest, intermediate test and posttest. Results: The sexual psychological health of middle school students was in the medium level, and girls(3.51±0.40) were generally better than boys(3.44±0.37)(t=3.62, P<0.05). According to one-way analysis of variance, the main effect of three dimensions of sexual health-sexual cognition(3.31±0.81, 3.68±0.80, 4.37±0.61), sexual values(3.43±0.51, 3.55±0.54, 3.85±0.58) and sexual adaptation(3.63±0.41, 3.85±0.49, 4.09±0.58) and the total score(3.51±0.39, 3.74±0.46, 4.10±0.47) before, during and after the acceptance of comprehensive sexuality education was significant(F=252.18, 281.68, 113.54, 114.60, P<0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive sexuality education course has a significant effect on improving sexual psychological health among junior high school students.

Malaria is one of the major diseases threatening the lives of people in Africa. Over the past decade, China has provided anti-malaria assistance to Africa. In November 2007, fast control malaria team of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine cooperated with the Comoros health authority. In Moheli Island of the Comoros, the anti-malaria team adopted a new strategy of Mass Drug Administration (MDA) and active intervention. They established an effective anti-malaria system and reporting system, as well as a local anti-malaria team. Furthermore, they treated patients with malaria in Moheli Island and implemended health education in local people. In a very short time, they have achieved remarkable results. This paper summarized the experiences of the project in order to provide useful reference for China to better carry out anti-malaria action in Africa and expand foreign health assistance.

Objective:To explore the correlation between right atrial function parameters and prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) complicated with pulmonary hypertension.Methods:Eighty-four patients with COPD combined with pulmonary arterial hypertension treated with bosentan combined with milrinone admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University during the period of February 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study subjects, and they were divided into the effective group (63 cases) and the ineffective group (21 cases) according to the treatment effect. Right cardiac function parameters were measured by Philips iE33 color ultrasonography before treatment and 72 h after treatment. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the treatment outcome of patients, and receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of right atrial function parameters in the poor prognosis of patients with COPD complicated with pulmonary hypertension.Results:The main pulmonary artery diameter (MPA), right ventricular base transverse diameter (RVd1), right ventricular middle transverse diameter (RVd2), right atrial diameter (RAd) and right ventricular free wall thickness (RVWT) in the effective group were lower than those in the ineffective group: (2.65 ± 0.23) cm vs. (2.90 ± 0.44) cm, (3.46 ± 0.43) cm vs. (3.76 ± 0.72) cm, (3.48 ± 0.42) cm vs. (3.88 ± 0.69) cm, (3.53 ± 0.81) cm vs. (4.03 ± 1.20) cm, (0.63 ± 0.12) cm vs. (0.72 ± 0.21) cm; end-diastolic to end-systolic tricuspid ring displacement (TAPSE) was higher than that in the ineffective group: (2.08 ± 0.32) cm vs. (1.82 ± 0.46) cm, there were statistical differences( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that RVd1 increased ( OR = 3.717, P<0.05), RVd2 increased ( OR = 2.162, P<0.05), RAd increased ( OR = 2.838, P<0.05) and TAPSE reduction ( OR = 1.704, P<0.05) were risk factors for treatment failure in patients. The results of ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of RVd1, RVd2, RAd, TAPSE in predicting the therapeutic effect of COPD patients with pulmonary hypertension were 0.820, 0.831, 0.872, 0.909, respectively. Conclusions:The independent influencing factors of ineffective patients with COPD combined with pulmonary arterial hypertension treated with bosentan combined with milrinone are the increase of structural parameters of the right heart and the decrease of systolic function parameters. The therapeutic effect of patients can be evaluated clinically according to the level of each parameter.

Primary liver cancer(PLC)is one of the most common malignant tumors of digestive system in clinic.TCM plays an important role in the treatment of PLC.After sorting out the medical records and literatures related to the syndrome types of primary liver cancer in recent years,it was found that the syndrome type of qi stagnation and blood stasis was one of the important syndrome types of primary liver cancer.This article discusses and supplements the syndrome type of qi stagnation and blood stasis from the aspects of etiology and pathogenesis,proportion of syndrome types,staging of liver cancer,objective indicators of liver cancer,etc.It provides a new understanding for the treatment of primary liver cancer based on syndrome differentiation,so as to improve the clinical cure rate of liver cancer,alleviate the clinical symptoms of patients,improve the quality of life,and prolong the survival period.
