Objective To investigate the relationship between the level of mindfulness and the A-type behavior characteristics of the nursing college students.Methods 172 nursing college students were investigated by the scale of TABP and FFMQ.The results were analyzed.Results In the 172 nursing college students,there were 112 nursing college students belonging to type B behavior pattern,accounted for 65.1％,and 60 nursing college students belonging to type A behavior pattern,accounted for 34.9％.The correlation between the score of TABP and the observation items and describing items were positive statistically significant,and was negatively correlated with awareness items and non-judge items statistically.Conclusions The students with different behavior characteristics were different in their mindfulness level.In order to improve nursing college students' mindfulness level and their mental health,the educators should take intervention based on their behavior characteristics timely.

AIM: To investigate the effects of electrical stimulation of vagus nerve on gut injury following intestinal ischemia-reperfusion in rats. METHODS: 30 adult male Wistar rats subjected to bilateral cervical vagotomy were randomly divided into three groups (n=10 per group): (1) Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion group (group I/R): laparotomy and I/R induced by clamping arteria mesenterica superior for 1 h followed by reperfusion for 2 h. (2) Vagus nerve stimulation group (group VNS): laparotomy, I/R and electric stimulation with pulse train of constant amplitude 5V, pulse width 2 ms and frequency 1 Hz at the left caudal vagus ends for 20 minutes before and after occlusion. (3) Sham control group (group SC): sham operation and sham stimulation. Carotid artery was cannulated for mean arterial pressure (MAP) monitoring. A strip of small intestine was taken from distal end of ileum for light microscopic (LM) and transient electron microscopic (TEM) examination at the time of 2 h after reperfusion. Improved Chiu’s scale was used to quantitatively assay the damage degree. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and TNF-? in plasma were detected. RESULTS: MAP in every group kept steady during ischemia, but decreased gradually with the prolongation in the time of reperfusion. MAP decreased more dramaticly in group I/R than that in group VNS (P

Objective To explore the advantages and disadvantages between the RapidArc plans and fixed-field IMRT plan (IMRT).Methods Ten cases of cervical cancer,aged 55 (36-70),who were to receive post-operative radiotherapy were selected randomly.Single arc (Arc 1),two arcs (Arc 2),and three arc (Arc 3) RapidArc plans and fixed-field IMRT plan were designed respectively in the Eclipse 8.6 planning system.The designing,treatment time,target area,and dose distribution of organs at risk by these 4 planning techniques were compared.Results The values of average planned treatment time by the Arc 1,Arc 2,and Arc 3 ten cases was 98,155,185,and 46 min,respectively.The values of average treatment time in the Varian IX accelerator were 2.15,3.32,4.48,and 6.95 min,respectively.The average mean doses were (48.99±1.08),(49.40±0.51) ,(49.51±0.62) ,and (48.65±0.92) Gy,respectively.The values of homogeneity index (HI) of target were 1.11±0.07,1.07±0.02,1.06±0.02,and 1.12±0.05,respectively.The values of eonformal index (CI) of target were 0.73±0.13,0.87±0.06,0.87±0.06,and 0.79±0.06,respectively.The doses at rectum,bladder,and small intestine calculated by IMRT plan were the lowest,and the doses at the femoral neck calculated by these 4 plans were similar.Conclusions The RapidArc plan is superior in dose distribution at target,HI,CI,and treatment time to IMRT,but IMRT plan is superior to RapidArc in planned dose calculation time and protection of organs at risk.However,in general,the RapidArc plan is better in clinical application than IMRT plan.

Objective To explore the effect of an electromagnetic field (EMF) on the viability,proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rats' bone mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSC).Methods Sinusoidal 1mT EMFs of 10 Hz,30 Hz,50 Hz and 70 Hz were administered to rBMSC for 2 hours per day during 2 weeks of cultivation.The cell viability was analyzed using live/dead assays.The cells' DNA was quantified to evaluate cell proliferation.Von Kossa staining was performed to study the mineralization of the extracellular matrix.The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunohistological staining were employed to observe the synthesis of osteocalcin (OC) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2).Results Cell viability decreased under exposure to the 50 Hz and 70 Hz fields.The proliferation of rBMSC was elevated significantly in the 10 Hz EMF-treated group.The expression OC and BMP-2 was elevated after two weeks of 50 Hz EMF stimulation.Moreover,the mineralization of the extracellular matrix was found to be enhanced after 50 Hz EMF exposure.Conclusion Exposure to a 1 mT EMF has different effects on the viability,proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rBMSC depending on the frequency.The data provide practical guidance for applying electromagnetic fields in bone regenerative medicine.

Objective To identify novel biomarker for diabetic nephropathy (DN) by urinary proteomic methods,and to detect the expression of E-cadherin in urine and renal tissue of patients with DN.Methods Urine samples were collected from 12 cases of type 1 diabetic nephropathy patients (T1DN),12 cases of type 2 diabetic nephropathy patients (T2DN),12 cases of nephritic syndrome patients (NS),and 12 cases of healthy Controls.Comparative proteomic approach of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry (MS) were employed to identify DN-related biomarker in urine samples.The differential expression of the identified biomarker in urine samples and renal biopsy specimens were detected by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry method.Results E-cadherin was identified by 2DE/MS,which was significantly up-regulated in T1DN and T2DN groups (all P ＜0.01).Western blotting confirmed the expression of E-cadherin was significantly higher in T1DN and T2DN groups than in NS and Control groups (all P＜0.01).Immunohistochemical stain showed E-cadherin was mainly expressed in the membrane and cytoplasm of renal tubular epithelial cell,and its expression was markedly decreased in DN kidneys compared with healthy Controls (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions E-cadherin is identified as a novel DN-related biomarker,which is specifically increased in urine of DN patients.

Objective To sum up effective measures to prevent complications of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) by applying evidence-based nursing in patients after PICC insertion.Methods From January 2011 to January 2013,1490 patients inserted with PICC in Hunan Provincial Tumor Hospital were selected by convenience sampling,whom were divided into control group (n =758) and observation group (n =732) with random number table.The control group received routine care,while the observation group received evidence-based nursing.Nursing program for the observation group was formed based on literature regarding the causes of and solutions for phlebitis,malposition of PICC,infection of insertion sites,and hemorrhage of insertion sites.Results The incidences of postoperative phlebitis,malposition of PICC,infection of insertion sites,and hemorrhage at insertion sites in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (3.14％ vs.8.97％,P=0.023;4.23％ vs.11.74％,P=0.021;3.96％ vs.8.44％,P=0.001;4.92％vs.12.66％,P =0.011).Conclusions The application of evidence-based nursing in patients with PICC insertion could effectively reduce the complication,and improve the quality of clinical nursing care.

Objective To investigate the practical value of Shikani optical stylet used for orotracheal intubation in critically conscious patients and to evaluate the successful rate. Method A total of 48 conscious patients with severe respiratory failure were selected from January 2008 to June 2009. Of them, there were 31 males and 17 females,aging 21-86 years old with an average of 57 years old. All enrolled patients needed endotracheal intubation for mechanical ventilation support, and they were assigned to Shikani group (group S, n = 25) and Macintosh group (group M, n = 23) according to the odd and even number of date of admission to this study. The time consumed for intubation, the number of failure in intubation, the adverse effects or complications such as hemodynam-ic changes, injury to the pharyngo-oral cavity, choking and breath-hold were observed and recorded. The rank test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results The ratio of the successful intubation at first attempt was much higher in group S (96.0%) than that in group M (60.9%) (P <0.01). Compared with group M, the time consumed for intubation was significantly shortened, the cardiovascular reactions were much mild, and the incidence of injury to pharyngo-oral cavity, choking and breath-hold were less in the group S ( P < 0.01 all). Conclusions For the acute and critical patients, especially the conscious ones, orotracheal intubation with the Shikani optical stylet is rapid, successful, safe and less injurious, resulting in mild cardiovascular reactions.

Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on acute lung injury induced by hind limb ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Methods Sixty healthy male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into 4 groups: group C(control), group I-R(ischemia-reperfusion), group Pre-Dex(dexmedetomidine)and group Post-Dex. The morphological changes of the lung tissues were observed under light microscope , and polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) in alveolar septum were counted. Meanwhile, lung coefficient, arterial partial PaO2, lung levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, interleukin (IL)-10, and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured. Results Rats in the I-R group were resulted in the damage of the lung tissues. The rats in group Pre-Dex and group Post-Dex were featured with obvious mild lung injury. TNF-α、IL-6、IL-10 and MDA in lung levels were significantly increased in group I-R , Pre-Dex and Post-Dex. TNF-α, IL-6 and MDA in the lung were significantly decreased in group Pre-Pex and group Post-Dex. IL-10 was increased in group Pre-Dex and group Post-Dex. Conclusions Inflammatory response and oxidative stress are involved in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury induced by hind limb ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Dexmedetomidine attenuated the lung injury through anti-inflammation and anti-oxidation.
