Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of Qingpeng ointment in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapeutic phlebitis. Methods:Totally 72 patients with non-small cell lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy after pneumonectomy were randomly divided into control and observation groups. The control group was treated with the conventional therapy to prevent phlebitis, and on the basis of conrentional therapy the observation group was treated with Qingpeng ointment at the injection site and along with the vein be-fore the chemotherapy, at the beginning of the chemotherapy, during the chemotherapy and after the chemotherapy in the same day and on the next day. The treatment course was 3 days. The incidence of phlebitis, hierarchical cases, VAS score and pain duration between the groups were compared, and the adverse drug reactions were observed. Results:The pain degree and duration induced by phlebitis showed no significant differences between the groups(P>0. 05), while the pain degree and duration in the observation group were de-creased when compared with those in the control group. The incidence of phlebitis in the observation group was obviously lower than that in the control group with statistically significant difference (P <0. 05). No adverse reactions were found with the external use of Qingpeng ointment. Conclusion:Qingpeng ointment has certain efficacy with high safety in the prevention of tumor-chemotherapeutic phlebitis, which can improve patients’ compliance, and is worthy of promoted application in clinics.

Objective To investigate the effect of restriction decision wheel and grade ICU patients with critical consciousness disorder. Methods Two hundred and fifty four patients in ICU with critical consciousness disorder from July to December 2012, who were intubated and constrained with their limbs due to the risk of unexpected extubation, were divided into the control group (n=125) and the experiment group (n=129), according to registration sequence. The former were constrained to their limbs after evaluation referring to the constraint nursing form and the latter was constrained by using the constraint decision-making wheel and grade. The two groups were compared in terms of restraint rate, unplanned extubation rate, and incidence of skin abnormality. Results The restraint rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.01). There was no incidence of abnormal skin in the two groups. There was no significance in the rate of unplanned extubation between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Constraints decision making wheel and grade is effective in ensuring patients'safety and improving the quality of nursing safety management by reducing unnecessary constraints or the incidence of delayed constraints.

To investigated the toxin genes distribution and molecular characteristics of Vibrio parahaemolyticus from pa‐tients in Ningbo ,V .parahaemolyticus strains were collected from patients with food poisoning and diarrhea .Thermostable di‐rect hemolysin gene (tdh) and TDH‐related hemolysin gene (trh) were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) .Molecu‐lar characteristics were acquired by multi‐locus sequence typing (MLST ) .Of 248 clinical strains were isolated from 2006 to 2012 .Forty‐eight strains were selected to detect virulence genes and MLST genotyping .Forty‐two isolates were detected as tdh+ and 11 isolates were detected as trh+ .There were 9 STs and one undifferentiated type in Ningbo clinical strains .Thirty‐two strains were classified into ST3 ,5 strains into ST265 and 3 strains into ST120 .ST265 was found in Ningbo strains com‐pared with strains from other regions of China .Strains with tdh+ accounted for the majority in Ningbo clinical strains .Twen‐ty‐five strains of ST3 clone were tdh+ /trh‐.There were 9 STs coexsited in Ningbo clinical strains .ST3 clone was dominant , followed by ST265 and ST120 .Strains with tdh+ /trh‐were dominant in the ST3 clone .The unique ST262 was found in Ning‐bo clinical strains .

Objective To investigate the role of activation of Akt/mTOR pathway in denfense against UVB-induced apoptosis in cultured human skin keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. Methods HaCaT cells were irradiated with UVB at different doses for various durations. Western blotting was performed to detect dynamic changes of Akt/mTOR pathway-related signaling molecule, such as phosphorylated-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), -Akt, -4EBP1, etc; apoptosis was estimated by staining with DNA dye Hoechst 33342. To evaluate the role of signaling molecules in defense against UVB-induced apoptosis, HaCaT cells were pretreated before irradiation with EGFR inhibitor (PD153035), PI3K inhibitor (LY294002), mTOR inhibitor (rapamycin) followed by the detection of expressions of signaling molecule and apoptosis. Results UVB could activate Akt/mTOR pathway in a dose- (5 ~ 30 mJ/cm2) and time- (5 ~ 30 min) dependent manner. PD153035,LY 294002 and rapamycin could inhibit UVB-induced activation of the Akt/mTOR pathway. The apoptosis rate in HaCaT cells was upregulated by pretreatment with rapamycin and LY294002. Conclusion The activation of Akt/mTOR signaling pathway could inhibit the UVB-induced apoptosis in cultured HaCaT cells.

In total, 106 patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) were divided into two groups based on their valsartan administration, and 53 healthy controls were recruited in the study. Plasma concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), resistin and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before and after valsartan treatment. Plasma levels of resistin, IL-6, TNF-α and hs-CRP were all significantly increased in patients with MHD as compared to those in healthy controls (P<0. 05). Among patients with MHD the plasma levels of resistin, IL-6 and hs-CRP in valsartan group were lower than those in non-valsartan group (P<0. 05).
