Objective To survey the parents′satisfaction of clinical decision who have children with end-staged liver diseases. Methods The Questionnaire of Satisfaction of Clinical Decision was used as the instrument. Results The parents′satisfaction score 3 months after the surgery was (71.2 ±3.5) points, while 1 year after the surgery was (68.3±4.4) points, and the difference between them was not statistically, P value was more than 0.05. Besides, the satisfaction showed significant difference on the factors of education and monthly income. F values were 5.258 and 6.328, and P values were both less than 0.05. The stronger the education background was, the higher the satisfaction was. And so the monthly income was. Conclusions The parents have higher satisfaction of clinical decision, and the education and monthly income are the factors affecting the satisfaction.

Objective To evaluate and compare the predictive validity of the Braden Q and Braden pressure ulcer risk assessment scales in the acute pediatric patients, and explore the cutoff score of the scales. Methods We adopted the prospective cohort study design.The settings included three PICU of three different children's hospitals. Two nurses were appointed as the data collectors, and they were in charge of both the scoring and the skin assessment separately. Results We collected 145 samples. There were 9 patients who developed the pressure ulcers, and the incidence rate was 6.2%. The cutoff score of Braden Q and Braden scale was 17 and 14. The AUC of the ROC curve of the two scales was 0.481 and 0.398. Conclusions The Braden Q scale is more suitable for the pediatric patients. Further study is neededed to improve the scale.

Objective To observe the effect of Shujinkeli on stroke patients with spastic hemiplegia. Methods The double blind test was applied in this study. 77 stroke patients with spastic hemiplegia were randomly divided into the group A (n=38) and the group B (n=39). Under the guidance of the criterion and routine treatment, patients of the group A were treated with Shujinkeli A and patients of the group B were treated with Shujinkeli B. After treatment, curative effect of patients was evaluated. Results The group A was the treatment group, and the group B was the control group. After treatment, the treatment group was superior to the control group in the improvement of muscular tension, Fugel-Meyer score and Barthel index. Conclusion The Shujinkeli can make the high muscular tension lower, which will accelerate the disabled limbs' recovery and improve patients' motor function and self-care ability of daily life.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical evaluation system reflecting the superiority and characteristics of comprehensive traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) therapy for acute stroke. METHODS: A randomized controlled trial with single blind in various therapeutic centers was applied on the patients with the acute stage of hemorrhagic stroke due to hypertension, who were allocated to the trial group and the control group. The trial group accepted the general Western medicine therapy and differential treatment of traditional Chinese medicine based on stage classification. Patients in the control group were treated with the general Western medicine and the placebo of traditional Chinese herbal medicine. The treatment effect was assessed at the 7th day, 14th day, 21st day, and 28th day of post-treatment and after 3-month follow-up. The clinical evaluation system included the syndromes of TCM (ZH), Glasgow coma standard (GCS), nerve functional failure (NF), activity of daily living (ADL), Barther index (BI), quality of life index (QLI) and functional activities questionnaire (FAQ). RESULTS: Four hundred and four patients with acute stroke were included. There were 178 cases with yang-syndrome and 21 cases with yin-syndrome in the trial group (n=199), and there were 165 cases with yang-syndrome and 40 cases with yin-syndrome in the control group (n=205). The rates of recovery and obvious improvement after 3-month treatment in the trial group and the control group were 86.5% and 73.6% respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups (P<0.01). The response sensitivity of the effect items indicated that the sensitivity of GCS began to increase from the 7th day and was high at the 14th day and the 21st day for all patients. The response sensitivity of the NF scale was high for all patients at the 14th day, the 21st day and the 28th day. The BI scale and the QLI scale were sensitive to the patients with light and middle stage of stroke at the 21st day, and were sensitive to the patients with light stage of stroke after 3-month follow-up. The FAQ scale was sensitive to the light stroke at the 21st day and after 3-month follow-up. The ADL scale was sensitive to all patients at the 28th day and the patients with light stage of stroke after 3-month follow-up. The ZH scale was sensitive to all patients from 0 to 7d, the 14th day, and the 28th day. The principle components analysis indicated these 7 items could reflect the condition of stroke from 0-7d, the 21st day and after 3-month follow-up, and could be used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of hemorrhagic stroke. ZH scale and FAQ scale were more sensitive than other effect items at the 28th day. CONCLUSION: The seven items (GCSbNFbBIbQLIbFAQbADLbZH) have high sensibility to all patients in the acute stage of hemorrhage stroke especially at the 21st day. The ZH score will change in accord with the condition of stroke, and is appropriate to reflect the condition of stroke. It is believed that the seven items can form the system of effect evaluation in different stages of stroke, and the ZH scale is a very important item.

Objective: This research was designed to survey the quality of life (QOL) and sleep of the pediatric patients with end-staged liver diseases. Methods: The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory^TM and the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire were adapted to develop the questionnaire of the survey. The patients of first half year of 2017 were investigated. Results: The median age was 8 month, and median height was 66 cm, while the median weight was 7.45 kg respectively. The median score of QOL was 67.4, and the median score of sleep was 0.22, while the median score of indirect sleep was 0.33 respectively. Conclusions The QOL of pediatric patients with end-staged liver diseases was relatively low, and the age, monthly income, weight, height were the impact factor of it. The quality of sleep was relatively good, and "whether having the insurance or not" is the impact factor of it.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effect of Dengzhan Shengmai capsule (DZSM) in rat cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and to explore the mechanism. Methods Rats were divided into Sham group, MCAO group, DZSM group, carbenoxolone (CBX) group and DZSM + CBX group. Each group was assessed for neurological function , infarct volume and the expression of Caspase-3 48 h after reperfusion. Connexin 43 (Cx43) expression of MCAO group was detected 3, 12, 24, 48 h after reperfusion. Results There were lower neurological deficit scores , infarct volume and the expression of Caspase-3 in DZSM , CBX and DZSM + CBX group 48 h after reperfusion when compared with those in MCAO group (P < 0.05) but Cx43 expression level in each group increased after reperfusion at each time point (P < 0.05). Expression of Cx43 was lower in DZSM, CBX and DZSM + CBX group than that in MCAO group (P < 0.05). Lower expression of Cx43 was also seen in CBX and DZSM + CBX group when compared with that in DZSM group (P < 0.05). Conclusion DZSM capsule can improve neurological function , reduce infarct volume and inhibit the expression of Caspase-3. The mechanism may be related to its inhibition of Cx43 expression.

Liver transplantation is a mature treatment for children with end-stage liver disease. With the development of surgical techniques, immunosuppressive therapy, and infection monitoring in recent years, there have been significant increases in the survival rates of patients and liver transplants, helping children to achieve long-term survival. Meanwhile, several issues have emerged, such as viral infection, complications, new-onset tumors, quality of life, and self-management. Therefore, this article reviews related issues in long-term survival in children after liver transplantation from the two aspects of medical treatment and nursing and provides several regimens for reference, so as to provide a basis for long-term high-quality survival in children after liver transplantation. Here, these issues are reviewed.

Objective: To get some knowledge of the quality of life among the pediatric patients who received the liver transplantation for one year, and analyze the impact factors. Methods: The patients who received the liver transplantation within January to December 2016 were investigated by the questionnaire. The patients′ demographics was investigated by the questionnaire. The patients′ quality of life was got by the scale, and then discuss the demographics′ impact on the quality of life. Results: The total score of quality of life was (68.37±13.90) points. The score of "About My Medicines I" was (76.74±17.26) points, and the score of "About My Medicines II" was (77.90±16.41) points, and the score of My Transplant and Others was (65.92±20.06) points, and the score of Pain and Hurt was (79.43±13.52) points, and the score of "worry" was (54.07±25.59) points, and the score of "Treatment Anxiety" was (54.07±25.59) points, and the score of How I Look was (58.85±28.09) points, and the score of "Communication was (84.67±15.86) points. And the type of insurance and blood type of donors were the impact factors, and the difference was significant (t=2.101, 3.201, P<0.05). Conclusions The quality of life of pediatric patients who received the liver transplantation for one year was relatively low. Whether or not having bought the insurance and the blood type of donors may be the impact factors of the quality of life.

Objective: To explore the key points of nursing in the process of diagnosing and treating the common complication--- post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) after pediatric liver transplantation. Methods: The clinical data of 21 children with PTLD after liver transplantation. The key point of nursing in the process of prevention, onset, diagnosis and treatment was summarized. Results: With the individual and combined treatments 18 patients gained remission except for 1 patient died because of perforation and sequent intractable haemorrhage and 2 patient died for the development of lymphoma. In terms of nursing, during the prevention stage, it is critical to insist the regular follow-up to make early diagnosis. More efforts should be made to obtain the children′s cooperation to complete the examination. During the infusion of rituximab, strengthened monitoring is necessary and more attention should be paid to the special nursing when other complications such as intractable haemorrhage, intestinal obstruction or perforation occurs. Conclusions The nursing care of PTLD is complicated. Individual and careful nursing regimens should be made based on the specific situations in different stages.
