Objective To explore the establishment and effectiveness of school-based training bases.Methods Two hundred forty-six nursing students having finished theoretical learning and possessing into clinical practice were divided into the control group(n=121)and the observation group(n=125).The control group received the conventional training in out-school training bases and the observation group in the school-based training bases.The two groups were compared in terms of creative thinking and the performances of nursing theory,manipulations and assessed by their teachers.Result The scores on creative thinking and the performances in nursing theory and manipulation in the observation group were both significantly higher than the control group(P<0.05)and the assessment by teachers in the observation group was better than the control group.Conclusion The school-based training base used for nursing teaching can not only improve the nursing theory and manipulation of nursing students but also improve the creative thinking.

Objective To explore the irradiation-increased krebs yon den lungen-6 (KL-6) in predicting radiation pneumonitis (RP) after lung cancer radiotherapy.Methods A total of 87 hospitalized patients with Ⅰ-Ⅲ stages of lung cancer from June 2015 to December 2015 were followed up,and their clinicopathological data and serum KL-6,transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1)and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)before and 3 months after radiotherapy were analyzed to determine their role in predicting RP induction in lung cancer.Results Among the 87 lung cancer patients based on clinical symptoms and chest CT,13 patients were diagnosed with ≥2 grape RP.Before radiotherapy,the average levels of serum KL-6 were (247 ± 105.44) U/ml in 13 patients with ≥ 2 grape RP and (209 ± 71.09) U/ml in 74 cases 0/1 grape RP,respectively.Within 3 months after radiotherapy,the highest level of KL-6 approached to (456 ± 202.84) and (222 ± 80.42) U/ml with increase ratios of 2.01 ± 1.04 and 1.13 ± 0.60 in the ≥2 grape RP and 0/1 grape RP,respectively.The difference of KL-6 levels between these two groups was significant (t =2.901,P < 0.005).While the levels of TGF-β1 and LDH did not change.ROC analysis showed that the sensitivity of the ratio of serum KL-6 increased after radiotherapy was 0.923% and the specificity was 0.851% at 1.435 as the critical value.Furthermore,the multi-variate logistic regression analysis showed that the ratio of KL-6 increased as an independent risk factor of ≥ 2 grade RP in lung cancer (OR =12.886,95% CI =3.372-49.247,P =0.002).Conclusions The increased ratio (≥ 1.435) of KL-6 is closely correlated with the ≥2 grape RP in lung cancer,which could be used as a predictor of ≥2 grape RP in lung cancer.
