Objective:To deeply study and explore the cognitive and barrier factors of clinical nurses' nutrition management in patients with pressure injury (PI), and provide evidence for developing quantifiable standardized management model and strengthening individualized nutrition management.Methods:A semi-structured in-depth interview was conducted with 11 nurses. The NVivo10.0 software and Colaizzi's 7-step analysis of phenomenological data were used to analyze interview data.Results:The study summarized four themes that hindered nutrition management: subjective judgment bias; education training lags behind and radiates one-sided; lack of policy and configuration; conflict between workload, roles and perceptions.Conclusions:There are many obstacles to the implementation of nutrition management in patients with PI. An objective, feasible and standardized nutrition management plan should be established, support should be provided by policy, configuration and information system, and relevant knowledge training and multi-team cooperation should be strengthened to improve patient life.

Objective To characterize the clinical,electrophysiology and neuropathological features of 4 cases with immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM).Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical,electrophysiology,neuropathological characteristics of 4 IMNM patients with muscular and skin biopsy in our department during 4 years (from January 2011 to January 2014).Results Among these 4 patients,2 were men and 2 were women (aged 37 to 58 years) with disease duration ranging from 1 month to 60 months.Two patients were with acute onset and 2 with chronic onset.All 4 patients had proximal muscle weakness with three patients with cervical flexor muscle weakness and one with respiratory muscles weakness and noninvasive ventilator assisted respiration.One patient had interstitial lung disease.The anti-signal recognition particle antibodies were strong positive in all 4 patients.Muscle biopsy showed group necrotizing and regenerating fibers in one patient and few scattered necrotizing and regenerating fibers in the other 3 patients.Both muscle fiber hypertrophy and muscle fiber atrophy together with proliferation of connective tissue on endomysium could be viewed in all 4 patients.However,very few inflammatory cells were detectable in patients.One patient was treated with corticosteroids and the other three were treated with combination of corticosteroids and immunosuppressant drugs.Conclusions IMNM is characterized by heterogeneity at disease onset,severity and ilnvolvement of muscles with,however,similary pathological changes including the presence of numerous necrotic and regenerating fibers with little or none inflammation.Corticosteroid and/or immunosuppressant is effective for patients.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by severe synovial inflammation and cartilage damage. Despite great progress in RA therapy, there still lacks the drugs to completely cure RA patients. Herein, we propose a reprogrammed neutrophil cytopharmaceuticals loading with TNFα-targeting-siRNA (siTNFα) as an alternative anti-inflammatory approach for RA treatment. The loaded siTNFα act as not only the gene therapeutics to inhibit TNFα production by macrophages in inflamed synovium, but also the editors to reprogram neutrophils to anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Leveraging the active tendency of neutrophils to inflammation, the reprogrammed siTNFα/neutrophil cytopharmaceuticals (siTNFα/TP/NEs) can rapidly migrate to the inflamed synovium, transfer the loaded siTNFα to macrophages followed by the significant reduction of TNFα expression, and circumvent the pro-inflammatory activity of neutrophils, thus leading to the alleviated synovial inflammation and improved cartilage protection. Our work provides a promising cytopharmaceutical for RA treatment, and puts forward a living neutrophil-based gene delivery platform.
