Objective: To investigate the hospital employee satisfaction and trustworthiness in the background of the trusteeship mode and to find out the problems after trusteeship.Methods: Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire (MSQ) and the self-made questionnaire were used to conduct the survey.Results: The overall employee satisfaction (3.80±0.86) and trustworthiness (3.95±0.77)were higher.The highest level of trustworthiness concerned the cultural connotation (84.8%) followed by the management concept (82.8%) for overall satisfaction.The lowest level of employee satisfaction concerned income and workload (53.7%), followed by the working conditions and environment (55.3%).The administrative staff satisfaction was higher compared to that of medical staff (p=0.001), which showed significant statistical differences.Conclusions: The hospital has made some achievements after the trusteeship system reform, however, it still needs improvement and further strengthening in many aspects.The hospital must always keep abreast of the demands of workforce and improve the staff satisfaction so as to promote its continuous and sustainable development.

Objective:To compare the effects between improved catheter extubation method and the traditional one on urination pain, urinary retention, first urination time and first urination volume, and to evaluate the advantage of the improved method.Methods:144 patients with indwelling catheters after operation in our department were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 72 cases in each group. The control group returned to the ward after surgery and began to clamp the urinary tube to train the bladder function, the catheter was removed by traditional method. Observation group: urination reflex was evaluated before extubation, according to more than 250 ml urine in the urine bag. Pumping the saline of the gas bag and injecting back 0.5ml to keep the wall of the bag smooth, eventually the catheter was excreted when urinating. Urethral pain, urinary retention, first micturition time and first micturition volume of two groups were analyzed.Results:Urethral pain, urinary retention, first micturition time in observation group and control group were 1.47±1.48, (20.44±12.98) min, 95.8% (69/72) and 3.11±1.98, (28.03±27.00) min, 83.3% (60/72), respectively, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t value was -5.644, -2.148, χ2 value was 6.628, all P<0.05). The first micturition volume in observation group and control group were (258.6±41.57) ml and (248.14±48.82) ml, respectively, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( t value was 1.377, P>0.05). Conclusion:The improved catheter extubation method could significantly reduce the urethral pain, shorten the time of the first urination, and improve the success rate of self-urination, which of clinical promotion.

The concept of theranostics, where individual patient-level biological information is used to choose the optimal therapy for that individual, has become more popular in the modern era of ‘personalised’ medicine. With the growth of theranostics, nuclear medicine as a specialty is uniquely poised to grow along with the ever-increasing number of concepts combining imaging and therapy. This special report summarises the status and growth of Theranostic Nuclear Medicine in Singapore.We will cover our experience with the use of radioiodine, radioiodinated metaiodobenzylguanidine, peptide receptor radionuclide therapy, prostate specific membrane antigen radioligand therapy, radium-223 and yttrium-90 selective internal radiation therapy.We also include a section on our radiopharmacy laboratory, crucial to our implementation of theranostic principles. Radionuclide theranostics has seen tremendous growth and we hope to be able to grow alongside to continue to serve the patients in Singapore and in the region.

OBJECTIVE：To study the e ffects of stilbene glycoside c（TSG）on phosphorylation of Thr 205，Ser404 sites of Tau protein in Aizheimer ’s disease （AD）model mice ，and to investigate the potential anti-AD mechanism of TSG. METHODS ：APP/ PS1/Tau three transgenes （3×Tg-AD）mice were randomly divided into model group ，positive control group （huperzine，0.15 mg/kg），TSG low-dose ，medium-dose and high-dose groups （0.033，0.1，0.3 g/kg），with 6 mice in each group. In addition ，6 C57BL/6J mice were chosen as normal control group. Administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically. Model group and normal control group were given equal volume of normal saline intragastrically ，once a day ，for consecutive 60 days. After last medication ，immunofluorescence staining was used to detect Tau protein and phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205， Ser404 sites） distribution and expression in brain tissue of mice in each group. Western blotting assay was used to detect phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites）expression level in brain tissue of mice in each group. RESULTS ：Compared with normal control group ，the expression of Tau protein，phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites）in 729011126@qq.com the brain tissue of mice were increased in model group ，which were easy to aggregate and distributed more widely ；theirrelative expression were increased significantly （P＜0.01）. Results of Western blotting assay showed that the expression levels of phosphorylat ed Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites）were increased significantly （P＜0.01）. Compared with model group ，the expression of Tau protein ，phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites） in the brain tissue of mice were decreased in positive control group and TSG groups ；aggregation decreased，distribution narrowed and their relative expression were decreased significantly （P＜0.01）. Results of Western blotting assay showed that the expression levels of phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites）were decreased significantly （P＜ 0.01）. Compared with positive control group ，There was no significant difference in the distribution of Tau protein ，phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites）in the brain tissue of mice in TSG groups ；the relative expression were not statistically significant（P＞0.05）；but Western blotting assay showed the expression levels of phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205 site）in TSG medium-dose and high-dose groups as well as the expression levels of phosphorylated Tau protein （Ser404 site）in TSG groups were decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：TSG can play an anti-AD effect on AD model mice by down-regulating the expression of phosphorylated Tau protein （Thr205，Ser404 sites）in brain tissue.
