Objective:To enhance the ability of organizing, commanding, decision-making and contingency-meeting of campaign medical support commanding officers so as to qualify them for their positions by simulation training. Methods: Based on the decision support theory, modern medical support theory, health service optimized decision support system and medical support command simulation training system, we designed and constructed a simulation training platform for medical support decision optimization. Results: A network-based simulation training platform was successfully constructed, which gives a strong support to the simulation training in medical support decision optimization under the network circumstance. Conclusion: The application of the simulation training platform has enriched the content and renewed the pattern of training in decision optimization for campaign medical support commanding officers.

BACKGROUND: Ischemia/reperfusion can induce degenerative alterations in articular cartilage. However, the precise mechanism remains poorly understood. OBJECTIVE: To observe the morphological changes and the apoptosis of articular cartilage of femoral head epiphyses with ischemia/reperfusion. METHODS: A total of 80 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to two groups: ischemia/reperfusion (model of ischemia/reperfusion in hip joint) and sham-surgery (exposure of abdominal aorta for 5 minutes) groups, with 40 animals in each group. Articular cartilages of femoral head epiphysis were col ected in 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours, 5 days, and 2 and 4 weeks after operation. Morphology of articular cartilage of femoral head epiphyses was examined by light microscope, and cel apoptosis was detected by TUNEL method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Light microscopy showed chondrocytes degeneration and reduction, as wel as fibrosis in matrix of cartilage in the ischemia/reperfusion group. Chondrocyte apoptosis was observed in both groups by TUNEL. Several apoptotic cells, less than five, were observed in the sham-surgery, while 10-30 apoptotic cells were found in ischemia/reperfusion group at 48 hours. Results indicated that ischemia/reperfusion can induce degenerative changes in articular cartilage of femoral head epiphyses, and cel apoptosis in developing hip joint may participate in damage of articular cartilage. Inhibition of chondrocyte apoptosis in articular cartilage may be useful for the prevention and cure of early osteoarthritis.

Objective To investigate the current situation of prediabetic self-efficacy of middle aged and elderly prediabetes and its influencing factors. Method Unified questionnaires were used to investigate the self-efficacy of 234 prediabetes and its influencing factors. Results The total scores of self-efficacy in the middle-aged and elder prediabetes were at moderate level. The score of the older patients was significantly higher than that of the middle aged (P<0.01). Multiple regression analysis showed that marital status and disease knowledge were main factors impacted their self-efficacy of the middle aged and family history of diabetes and the disease knowledge were the main factor affecting the self-efficacy of the elderly prediabetes. Conclusions The self-efficacy of middle-aged and elderly prediabetes is at middle level. Nurses need to enhance the knowledge of the prediabetic patients, attaching more attention to those not in marriage and those without history of diabetes so as to strengthen their self-efficacy.

Objective To explore the characteristics of sleep disturbance and its related factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods A total of 71 patients with RA in Department of Rheumatology Huaxi Hospital have completed the following questionnaires, including Pittsburgh sleeping quality index (PSQI), visual analogue scale (VAS), disease activity score in 28 joints (DAS28), health assessment questionnaire (HAQ), hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), fatigue severity scale (FSS) and a self-designed general status questionnaire.Results The prevalence of sleep disturbance was 42.3％ (30/71) in rheumatoid arthritis patients (68.4％).The scores of DAS28, VAS, PSQI, HAQ, FSS and HADS in patients with sleep disturbance were significantly higher than those in patients with good sleep, which were respectively 3.90 ± 1.12 vs 2.92 ± 1.92, (5.03 ± 2.63) scores vs (2.41 ± 1.84) scores, (10.87 ± 2.42) scores vs (4.29 ± 1.85) scores, 3.0 (0.0, 7.0) scores vs 2.0 (0.5,4.0) scores, (39.17 ±14.02) scores vs (29.63 ± 16.12) scores, (14.50 ±7.77) scores vs (9.49 ±6.57) scores (P ＜ 0.05 in all scales).According to the results of Pearson correlation analysis, PSQI had significantly positive correlation with DAS28 (r =0.462, P ＜ 0.01), VAS (r =0.556, P ＜ 0.01), HAQ (r =0.360, P ＜ 0.01), FSS(r =0.420, P ＜ 0.01) and HADS (r =0.447, P ＜ 0.01) respectively.The logistic regression analysis indicated that VAS was a predictor for poor sleep quality (P ＜ 0.01).The patients receiving biological agents had significantly (P ＜ 0.05) lower scores of DAS28 (2.86±1.39 vs 3.52 ± 1.1 0), PSQI [(5.90 ± 4.24) scores vs (8.53 ± 3.78) scores], VAS(2.15 ± 2.30 vs 4.05 ± 2.46), HAQ [0.0 (0.0, 2.0) scores vs 3.0(0.0,6.0) scores] compared to those taking oral drugs.Conclusion High prevalence of sleep disturbance in patients with RA is noted, which indirectly influences the activity of disease, quality of life, depression, fatigue and other physical and mental health.Biological agents can partly improve the sleep disturbance and functional status.
