Objective:To explore the application effect of dynamic case scenario simulation combined with video playback in the teaching of trauma emergency for nursing interns.Methods:A total of 80 nursing interns who had internship in the Department of Emergency, The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from December 2017 to November 2018 were recruited in the study, and they were randomly divided into experimental group and control group (40 nurses per group). The dynamic case scenario simulation combined with video playback method was applied in the experimental group, and the traditional teaching method was used in the control group. Both groups had the same teaching hours (8 class hours) and trauma practice outline. Trauma theoretical knowledge and operational skills of the two groups were assessed, and the scores of nursing students in the two groups, teaching satisfaction and teaching evaluation in the experimental group were analyzed. SPSS 19.0 was used for t test. Results:The trauma theoretical knowledge assessment results and clinical operation skills assessment scores of control group were (73.40±7.11) points and (78.69±8.71) points, respectively, and those of experimental group were (78.09±6.84) points and (85.34±6.43) points respectively, with a statistical difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). The overall satisfaction of nursing students in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [(98.34±2.19) vs. (94.94±2.58), P<0.01]. Most of nursing students (97.5%, 39/40) in the experimental group hoped to apply dynamic case scenario simulation combined with video playback method in the future. Conclusion:The dynamic case scenario simulation combined video playback method could enhance the trauma emergency ability of the nursing interns and improve the teaching satisfaction and teaching effect.

Objective To analyze and set up the effective dose of different ionizing radiation for tunnel construction workers. Methods A total of five tunnels constructed using drilling and blasting methods were selected as the research subjects using the convenient sampling method. The workplace γ radiation effective dose, radon concentrations, and radioactive activity concentrations were detected, and on-site surveys were conducted to estimate the internal and external irradiation doses and total effective doses for workers in different work sites. Results Radiological hazards in tunnels constructed using drilling and blasting methods included radon and its progeny, γ radiation, radioactive dust (uranium-238, radium-226, thorium-232, and potassium-40) and others. The average total effective dose of ionizing radiation exposure for tunnel construction workers was (6.730 1±1.541 1) mSv. The average dose of radon and its progeny was (6.163 0±1.512 8) mSv, radioactive dust was (0.014 6±0.009 1) mSv, γ radiation was (0.552 6±0.138 7) mSv. The dose of radioactive dust of radon and its progeny was 0.24%. Radon and its progeny contributed more to the radioactive dose than radioactive dust and γ radiation (all P<0.05). Among all the radioactive dusts, the dose contribution ranked from highest to lowest was thorium-232, uranium-238, and radium-226. Conclusion For tunnel construction workers, the largest contribution to the effective dose of ionizing radiation exposure is from radon and its progeny for internal irradiation, followed by γ radiation for external irradiation. The contribution of radioactive dust to internal irradiation dose can be considered negligible.

BACKGROUND:The specific mechanism of Gushukang,as a Chinese traditional patent medicine for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis of kidney deficiency and blood stasis,needs further studies. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Gushukang on serum sex hormones,bone microstructure and estrogen receptor in postmenopausal osteoporosis. METHODS:Firstly,network pharmacological analysis was performed.The active ingredients and action targets of Gushukang and the targets of postmenopausal osteoporosis were obtained respectively.Cytoscape was used to construct the active ingredient-target network.STRING database and Cytoscape were used for protein-protein interaction analysis and screening of core targets.DAVID database was used for Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analyses of intersection targets.Then the ovariectomized Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the animal experiment.Gushukang was administered by gavage for 3 months.The serum estrogen level was detected by ELISA,the bone microstructure was detected by microCT,and the protein expression of estrogen receptor α and estrogen receptor β in bone tiusse was detected by western blot. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The network pharmacological research results identified 132 active ingredients and 150 targets of Gushukang and 1155 targets of postmenopausal osteoporosis.After intersections with 1155 postmenopausal osteoporosis targets,87 targets of active ingredients of Gushukang against postmenopausal osteoporosis were obtained.By constructing the active ingredient-target network,it was found that the active ingredients at the core were quercetin,kaempferol,luteolin,naringin and isorhamnetin,and the targets at the core were NCOA2,ESR2,AR,F2,ESR1 and PTGS1.The final targets obtained after the protein-protein interaction analysis and screening included MAPK8,ESR1,JUN,R3C1,RELA and FOS,of which ESR1 was the common core target obtained from the two analyses.KEGG enrichment analysis showed estrogen,tumor necrosis factor,apoptosis and other signaling pathways.Therefore,animal experiments focused on the effect of Gushukang on different subtypes of estrogen receptors in the estrogen signaling pathway.The results showed that in the Gushukang group,bone microstructure was significantly improved,serum estrogen level had no significant change,but the protein expression of estrogen receptor α and β in bone tissue was significantly increased.All the findings indicate that the mechanism of Gushukang in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis may be related to its hormone-like effect and the enhancement of estrogen receptor expression.
