Objective To probe into the status quo of maltreatment tendency among family caregivers of elderly patients with chronic diseases and its influence factors.Methods Totally 402 family caregivers of the elderly patients with chronic diseases were selected and surveyed by using the Chinese version of caregiver elder abuse assessment scale and the results underwent statistical analysis.Results 63.70％ of family caregivers in elderly patients with chronic diseases had the elder abuse risk tendency and its influence factors were involved with both aspects of family caregivers and the care recipients,including the gender,cultural level and self-care ability of daily living in the elderly patients with chronic diseases and the age,cultural level,care period and living together with elderly in caregivers.Conclusion The elder abuse problem in the patients with chronic diseases should be paid more attention to,which needs the collaboration of multidisciplinary team,various effective ways should be adopted to relieve the family caregivers' pressure for reducing the occurrenc of elder abuse risk.

Objective To probe into the status and correlation between elder abuse tendency and psychological resilience of family caregivers of the elderly with chronic diseases. Methods Totally 402 family caregivers of the elderly with chronic diseases were investigated by the Chinese version of Caregiver Abuse Screening and Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale. Then the results underwent statistical analysis. Results Nearly 63.68%(256/402) family caregivers had the risk of elder abuse tendency. The median of family caregivers′resilience score was 53, lower than normal population(Z=-10.106, P=0.000), and was significantly negatively correlated with elder abuse tendency(r=-0.480, P=0.000).And caregivers′ high level of resilience was a protective factors for elder abuse tendency. Conclusions Nurses should motivate the family caregivers of the elderly with chronic diseases to adapt successfully when faced stress which could be associated with resilience. Thus the psychological resilience would play a role of protective effect against elder abuse tendency, with the purpose of reducing the risk for abusing the elderly who suffered from chronic diseases.

Objective To investigate the relationship between apolipoprotein E(Apo E) gene poly-morphism and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and e-valuate the correlative risk factors. Method 40 cases of type 2 diabetes with MCI and 80 cases of type 2 diabetes without MCI were enrolled in this study. The polymorphism of the Apo E gene was detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). According to the clinical data such as course of disease, plasma glucose, plasma fat and body mass index (BMI), the independent risk factors of T2DM and MCI were analyzed by non-conditional logistic regression. Results The frequency of Apo E ε_4 allele in the group of type 2 diabetes with MCI was higher than that without MCI ( 25.0% vs 10. 0% ), and the difference had statistical significance( P < 0. 01 ). The indexes of the statistical significant difference be-twcen the two groups were age, course of disease, postprandial blood glucose ( P2BG), HBA1C, BMI,family history of T2DM, hypertension, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, Apo E gene. The independent risk factors included diabetic retinopathy ( OR = 3. 452, P < 0. 05 ), diabetic peripheral neuropathy( OR = 3. 252, P <0. 05), Ape E gene( OR = 2. 441, P < 0.01 ), HBA1C ( OR = 1. 372, P <0.05), P2BG(OR = 1. 194, P <0.05), age(OR = 1. 194, P <0.01) and course of disease(OR =1. 142, P <0. 05). Conclusion Apo E ε_4 allele has significant relationship with T2DM and MCI. The age, course of disease, control of plasma glucose, and microvascular complication of diabetes have relation-ship with the cognitive function.

Objective To analyze the correlation of preoperative serum vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)level with serum CA125 level in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC),and to evaluate the prognostic value of preoperative serum VEGF in these patients.Methods Forty-one patients with EOC were included as study group,while 20 healthy women were selected as control group.Enzymelinked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and chemiluminescence assay were used to measure serum VEGF and CA125 level respectively.The correlations of serum VEGF with CA125 level,postoperative recurrence rate and survival time were analyzed retrospectively.Resuits Serum VEGF levels in patients with EOC were higher than those in healthy women,with the median of 415 and 165 ng/L,range 110-2120 and 100-735 ng/L respectively(P＜0.01).No correlation was found between preoperative serum VEGF and CA125 level (Spearman test,P=0.989).High preoperative serum VEGF was positively correlated with postoperative recurrence.Serum VEGF level in patients with postoperative recurrence was higher than that in patients without recurrence,with the median of 490 and 315 ng/L respectively(P=0.035).Univariate analysis showed that higher serum level was reversely correlated with shorter survival.Median overall survival time in patients with higher serum VEGF level and lower serum VEGF level was 18 months and＞35 months respectively(P=0.010).Multivariate Cox model analysis showed that high VEGF level was an independentfactor for the prognosis of EOC(P=0.042).Conclusion Preoperative serum VEGF level is not correlated with CA125 concentration in patients with EOC,and it is an independent risk factor for prognosis.

Objective:To explore the effects of nursing intervention with pregnant body mass management combined with role -based health education on stage of labor, pelvic floor function recovery, psychological status changes, maternal and neonatal outcomes in primiparas. Methods:From March 2019 on, pregnant body mass management combined with role -based health education nursing was implemented in the hospital. On basis of the theory, nursing regimens of pregnant body mass management combined with role-based health education we formulated. During the period from August 2018 to February 2019, 120 primiparas who underwent delivery in the hospital were randomly enrolled as control group. During the period from August 2019 to February 2020, 120 primiparas were randomly enrolled as observation group. The duration of labor stages, postpartum pelvic muscle strength, scores of Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), and delivery outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results:After nursing, the cesarean section rate was 20.83% (25/120) in observation group and 32.50% (39/120) in control group, there was significant difference between the two groups ( χ 2 value was 4.176, P<0.05). The spending time of ending the first, second and third stage of labor was (517.27±8.95), (48.33±5.62), (10.26±1.63) min in observation group and (537.31±7.92), (57.29±5.58), (18.28±1.61) min in control group, there was significant difference between the two groups ( t values were 18.369, 12.393, 38.347, P<0.001). After nursing, normal rate of pelvic floor muscle strength was 68.33% (82/120) in observation group and 54.17% (65/120) in control group, there was significant difference between the two groups ( χ 2 value was 5.074, P<0.05). After nursing, scores of HAMD and HAMA were (4.43±1.02), (5.56±0.87) points in observation group and (6.09±1.15), (6.88±0.93) points in control group, there was significant difference between the two groups ( t values were 11.830, 11.354, P<0.05). After nursing, adverse outcome rates of primiparas and neonates were 3.33% (4/120) and 5.83% (7/120) in observation group, and 10.00% (12/120), 15.83% (19/120) in control group, there was significant difference between the two groups ( χ 2 values were 4.286, 6.211, P<0.05). Conclusions:Pregnant body mass management combined with role-based health education nursing is conducive to shortening labor stages of primiparas, improving postpartum pelvic floor muscle strength and adverse emotions, and thus reducing the occurrence of maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a child featuring global developmental disorder with epilepsy. METHODS: A child who had presented at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center in July 2022 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data was collected. Potential variant was detected by whole exome sequencing (WES). Candidate variant was validated by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS: The child, a three-year-old ethnic Zhuang Chinese girl, had presented with global developmental disorder and epilepsy, for which rehabilitation therapy was ineffective. Genetic testing revealed that she has harbored a homozygous c.821T>C (p.Leu274Pro) missense variant of the PIGW gene, for which both of her parents and sister were heterozygous carriers. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was classified as variant of uncertain significance. CONCLUSION The homozygous c.821T>C (p.Leu274Pro) variant of the PIGW gene probably underlay the onset of disease in this child. Above finding has enriched the mutational spectrum of the PIGW gene.
