Objective To investigate the status quo of application of fall risk factors assessment scale in nurses of different position in geriatric ward . Method Eighty-six nurses in different position were investigated by fall risk factors assessment scale . Results About 89 . 5%of the nurses could assess the fall risk factors on time and 80 . 2%could do it accurately , and only 62 . 8%of them worked out their nursing orders based on the possible falls. In terms of the accuracy in using fall risk factors assessment, the primary nurses was poorer than the senior nurses, with statistically significant difference between them (P<0.05). Yet there were no significant differences between them in timeliness and pertinence at working out nursing orders (P>0.05). Conclusion We should strengthen the training to the clinical nurses in correctly using the fall assessment scale , in order to exert the diagnostic value of the fall assessment scale, reduce the incidence of falls and ensure the safety of the patients.

Objective To explore the curative effects of artificial skin(hydrocolloid dressing) and erythromycin ointment in the treatment of neonatal skin injury, and to provide theoretical evidences for the promotion of clinically rapid recov-ery of neonatal skin injury and the improvement of curative effects. Methods A total of 160 patients with neonatal skin injury who were treated in our hospital from March 2014 to March 2015 were selected. They were randomly and aver-agely assigned to two groups, research group and control group. Infant patients in the control group were given the treatment of erythromycin ointment, and infant patients in the research group were given the treatment of artificial skin (hydrophilic dressing). Wound healing time, average frequency of dressing change, incidence of complications, non-cure rate and effective rate of treatment were compared between the two groups of infant patients. Results In infant patients of the research group, wound healing time was (4.47±0.76) d, average frequency of dressing change was (3.18±0.52) times, incidence of complications was 5.00%, non-cure rate was 3.75% and effective rate of treatment was 95.00%. All in-dices in the research group were significantly better than those in the control group, and the differences were statisti-cally significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Artificial skin (hydrophilic dressing) in the treatment of neonatal skin injury is able to promote the wound healing rapidly, can reduce the frequency of dressing change and improve the effective rate of treatment.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of tracheal extubation in operating room for patients with end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) after single-lung transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 57 recipients who underwent single-lung transplantation due to end-stage COPD were retrospectively analyzed. According to the evaluation indexes of tracheal extubation in operating room established by our hospital, 17 recipients eligible for tracheal extubation in operating room were assigned into the operating room extubation group (OR extubation group) and 40 recipients receiving tracheal extubation in intensive care unit (ICU) were allocated in the ICU extubation group. The evaluation results of intraoperative tracheal extubation and postoperative recovery were compared between two groups. Results Compared with the ICU extubation group, recipients in the OR extubation group had higher oxygenation index, lower arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO₂), lower blood lactic acid level, less fluctuation range of blood pressure and fewer cases receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) during operation (all P < 0.05). Two recipients in the OR extubation group received repeated tracheal intubation at 6 and 8 h after returning to ICU, and tracheal extubation at postoperative 6 and 9 d. In the OR extubation group, time of postoperative mechanical ventilation, length of postoperative ICU and hospital stay of the recipients were shorter than those in the ICU extubation group (all P < 0.05). The incidence of grade 3 primary graft dysfunction (PGD), atrial tachyarrhythmia, continuous renal replacement therapy and 1-year survival rate did not significantly differ between two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusions The tracheal extubation regimen in the operating room for COPD patients after single-lung transplantation established by our hospital is safe and feasible, which shortens the time of postoperative mechanical ventilation, the length of postoperative ICU and hospital stay, whereas does not increase the incidence of postoperative complications.

Background/Aims: Low educational attainment is a well-established risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in developed areas. However, the association between educational attainment and the risk of NAFLD is less clear in China. Methods: A cross-sectional study including over 200,000 Chinese adults across mainland China was conducted. Information on education level and lifestyle factors were obtained through standard questionnaires, while NAFLD and advanced fibrosis were diagnosed using validated formulas. Outcomes included the risk of NAFLD in the general population and high probability of fibrosis among patients with NAFLD. Logistic regression analysis was employed to estimate the risk of NAFLD and fibrosis across education levels. A causal mediation model was used to explore the potential mediators. Results: Comparing with those receiving primary school education, the multi-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for NAFLD were 1.28 (1.16 to 1.41) for men and 0.94 (0.89 to 0.99) for women with college education after accounting for body mass index. When considering waist circumference, the odds ratios (95% CIs) were 0.94 (0.86 to 1.04) for men and 0.88 (0.80 to 0.97) for women, respectively. The proportions mediated by general and central obesity were 51.00% and 68.04% for men, while for women the proportions were 48.58% and 32.58%, respectively. Furthermore, NAFLD patients with lower educational attainment showed an incremental increased risk of advanced fibrosis in both genders. Conclusions In China, a low education level was associated with a higher risk of prevalent NAFLD in women, as well as high probability of fibrosis in both genders.

The latest epidemiological data suggests that the situation of adult diabetes in China is severe, and metabolic diseases have become significant chronic illnesses that have a serious impact on public health and social development. After more than six years of practice, the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has developed distinctive approaches to manage metabolic patients and has achieved a series of positive outcomes, continuously advancing the standardized diagnosis and treatment model. In order to further improve the efficiency, based on the first edition, the second edition guideline was composed by incorporating experience of the past six years in conjunction with the latest international and domestic guidelines.
