Crisis is an emergent event that threatens the national security, social regulation, civilian property and life, and needs urgent, decisive response in the condition of high instability. Crisis management should be prompt, active, honest, responsible and soluble, and should be carried out according to the model of preparation, reduction, response and recovery. SARS outbreak in China revealed constitutive defects in the immediate response for emergent public health event as well as crisis management. This paper provides some information for establishing the immediate response system for emergent public health event and crisis management.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of "screen and target population intervention policy" for stroke intervention in Nanhui county of Shanghai city.Methods A cross sectional survey on stroke was carried out in January 1999,and 696558 population in Nanhui county of Shanghai city were investigated in the study. Surveillance data on incidence and mortality rate of stoke from January 1996 to December 1998 in the county were retrospectively checked and reinvestigated.The CVHI of 35 years old and over in this population which have one and more of risk factors were measured,their CVHI total score

Objective To explore the effect of nursing intervention on the oral hygiene of vagrant patients with mental problems.Methods Toally 80 vagrant patients with mental problems were saved and treated with oral health care intervention for a period of three months.The pre-intervention effects were prepared with the post-intervention ones in terms of tooth brushing,oral health and periodontal disease related symptoms intervention.Results Before intervention,the rate of tooth brushing was significantly higher and the rate of periodontal disease related symptoms significantly lower than that before intervention (P＜0.05).The scores on physical function limitation,pain and discomfort,psychological discomfort,weakened ability in independent living and the total score after intervention were all significantly lowered as compared to the pre-intervention.Conclusion Oral nursing intervention can improve oral hygiene and oral health of vagrant patients with mental diseases.

Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of hospital-acquired infection. Because the bacteria are very easy to become resistant to antibiotics, vaccination is a main method against S. aureus infection. Clumping factor B (ClfB) is an adhesion molecule essential for S. aureus to colonize in the host mucosa and is regarded as an important target antigen. In this study, we successfully used Escherichia coli to express a segment encoding the N1-N3 regions of ClfB protein (Truncated-ClfB) cloned from S. aureus. The protein was purified by affinity and ion exchange chromatographies and gel filtration. Rabbits were immunized three times with purified Truncated-ClfB. After that, blood was collected to prepare serum which were then used for measurement of antibody level. Phagocytosis of S. aureus opsonized by the serum was determined by a flow cytometry. Results show that the serum IgG titer reached 1:640 000. Phagocytosed S. aureus by polymorphonuclear leukocytes were significantly more when the bacteria were opsonized by the serum from Truncated-ClfB immunized rabbits than those from no immunized group (P < 0.01). Therefore, the results indicated that Truncated-ClfB could be a promising vaccine candidate against S. aureus infection.

A comparison of the volatile compounds in Rhizomes Curcumae (Ezhu) and Radix Curcumae (Yujin) was undertaken using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).Ultrasonic extraction and GC-MS methods were developed for the simultaneous determination of five sesquiterpenes,namely,α-pinene,β-elemene,curcumol,germacrone and curdione,in Ezhu and Yunjin.Good linearity (r＞0.999) and high inter-day precision were observed over the investigated concentration ranges.The validated method was successfully used for the simultaneous determination of five sesquiterpenes in Ezhu and Yujin.The quantitative method can be effectively used to evaluate and monitor the quality of Chinese curcuma in clinical use.

Objective To assess the incidence of thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation,door to needle time (DNT),and safety in patients with ischemic stroke who receive intravenous thrombolytic treatment prior to the availability of blood platelet (PLT) and coagulation results.Methods Consecutive acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischemic attack patients within 12 hours of symptom onset who were admitted from January 2009 to March 2013 were retrospectively recruited.First laboratory reports in their medical charts were collected to assess the incidence of thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation.In the mean time,consecutive AIS patients who received intravenous thrombolysis at Huashan Hospital during the same period were retrospectively recruited.The thrombolytic procedures were further optimized since June 10.3760/cma.j.issn.1006-7876.2014.07.00626,2012.With informed consent,intravenous thrombolysis was initiated without PLT and coagulation results after certain previous history and medications were ruled out.Thrombolytic patients were divided into two groups based on the initiation of thrombolysis before or after PLT and coagulation results.Baseline demographic data,symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage rates,mortality on the 7th day as well as functional outcome at 3 months were collected.DNT as well as efficacy and safety of thrombolysis therapy were compared between the two groups.Results Of 298 AIS patients within 12 hours of onset,8 had thrombocytopenia or abnormal coagulation.One hundred and twenty cases of intravenous thrombolysis patients were recruited.Waiting for PLT and coagulation results prolonged DNT than without waiting for them (90 min vs 59 min; U =870.000,P ＜0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH),early efficacy,7 d mortality and 3-month good outcome between two groups.Conclusions The incidence of thrombocytopenia and abnormal coagulation is low in AIS patients.Initiating intravenous thrombolysis prior to the availability of coagulation results can shorten DNT,while increased risks of sICH and 7 d mortality were not observed.

Objective To determine factors associated with favorable clinical outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients who received intravenous thrombolysis.Methods Patients treated with intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) between January 1,2008 and May 31,2013 were recruited.Favorable outcome was defined as modified Rankin scale (mRS) score ＜ 2 at 3 months.The baseline characteristics were compared by univariate and multivariate analysis.Results Of all the 148 patients studied,within the 4.5-hour time window,the rate of patients with a favorable outcome was 52.4％ (65/124),significantly better than those beyond the time window(20.8％ (5/24),x2 =8.048,P =0.005).Univariate analysis showed that age (U =2 146.000,P =0.025),TOAST classification (x2 =11.412,P =0.010),Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project (OCSP) classification (x2 =17.409,P =0.001),baseline blood glucose (U =1 446.500,P ＜ 0.01),baseline fibrinogen (U =1 689.000,P =0.038),admission NIHSS score (U =1 140.000,P ＜ 0.01),24-hour NIHSS score (U =458.000,P ＜0.01),and early symptom improvement (24-hour NIHSS score decreased ≥ 4 points,or down to 0 point;x2 =19.576,P ＜ 0.01) were the factors associated with clinical outcomes.Multivariate analysis revealed that age (odds ratio (OR) =0.943,95％ confidence interval (CI) 0.892-0.996,P =0.024),baseline fibrinogen (OR =0.448,95％ CI 0.208-0.963,P =0.040),baseline NIHSS score (OR =0.749,95％ CI 0.663-0.845,P ＜ 0.01),and early symptom improvement (OR =14.970,95％ CI 4.460-50.249,P ＜ 0.01) were independent predictors of clinical outcomes.Conclusions The effect of intravenous thrombolysis on clinical outcomes of acute ischemic stroke patients is time-dependent.Age,baseline NIHSS score,baseline fibrinogen level,and early symptom improvement are independent predictors of clinical outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis.

Objective To investigate the value of the hippocampal subfield's MRI T2 signal intensity in evaluating the effect of the hydrochloric donepezil for mild cognitive impairment(MCI).Methods 20 MCI patients with hydrochloric donepezil (treatment group) and 20 patients with placebo (control group) were scanned by MRI using FSE-T2 sequence.The margin of hippocampal subfields was outlined manually for each side to measure the MRI T2 signal intensity.The relationship between hippocampal MRI T2 signal intensity and MMSE scores was analyzed in the treatment group.Results Before the treatment, there was no significant difference of the MRI T2 signal intensity between groups.After the treatment, the MRI T2 signal intensity in the bilateral head of the treatment group was significantly decreased compared with the control group(P<0.05).There was an inverse relationship between the MRI T2 signal intensity of the bilateral hippocampal head and MMSE scores in the treatment group(P<0.05).Conclusion The MRI T2 signal intensity in the bilateral hippocampal head could be regarded as a valuable marker in making clinical diagnosis and evaluating the effect of the treatment for MCI in its early stage.
