Objective To describe the status of nurses′professional identity and the self-concept and to explore the relationship between nurses′professional identity and the self-concept. This will be the base for intervening nurses′professional identity. Methods A convenience sample of 250 nurses from one major hospital in Beijing was recruited. The Macleod Clark Professional Identity Scale and the Professional Self-Concept Instrument were introduced. A standard translation procedure was carried out. Results A total of 250 questionnaires were sent out, 241 questionnaires were withdrawed with an effective rate of 96.4%. The mean score of nurses′professional identity was 42.54±8.70, which was at moderate level. The mean score of nurses′professional self-concept was 86.28 ±22.86, also at moderate level, among which,knowledgescores highest (25.91±6.00), leadership scored 20.84±8.02, inter-personal relationship scored (20.28±4.18), caring scored the lowest (19.25±4.67). There was significant difference among the professional identity in the different departments (P<0.05) , while the same results were not seen in professional self-concept. Nurses′professional identity was positively correlated with professional self-concept′s four dimensions (P<0.05). Conclusions The nurse managers should pay attention to the cultivation of professional self-concept in the training of nurses in order to improve the professional identity of nurses and the whole nurses′development.

Objective To explore the relationship between the distribution of infected snails and transmission of acute schistosomiasis in hilly regions.Methods The data concerning the distribution of the infected snails and acute schistosomiasis in Shitai County,Anhui Province from 1999 to 2008 were collected and analyzed.Results The sehistosome infection rate of human increased as the distance between the settings with infected snails and activity sites of humans shortened.Conclusions Acute infection of schistosome of human is associated with the distance between the settings with infected snails and activity sites of them.Strengthening the measures of snail control in key regions,protecting key populations and carrying out health education for schistosomiasis control are important approaches to control the transmission of acute schistosomiasis in hilly regions.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for removal of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Methods Data of 22 patients with GISTs,who underwent ESD, were reviewed in terms of personal situation, location and size of lesions, clinical manifestation, managements, pathology, complications and follow-up findings. Results The procedure was successfully performed in all patients and all lesions were removed by one procedure. The lesion size ranged from 0. 8 to 4. 0 cm and the operation time was 35-150 min ( mean 64. 5 min). Mild bleeding occurred in all cases, which was successfully managed by argon plasma coagulation, hot biopsy probe or endoclip. Perforation occurred in 4 patients (18. 1%), which were closed with endoclip. Abdominal distension was relieved with decompression, acid suppression with proton pump inhibitors and antibiotics in 3 cases, additional trans-abdominal puncture was needed in the other case. No severe hemorrhage occurred. The average length of hospitalization was 4. 5 days (3-10 d). The patients were followed up for 3 to 18 months, and no tumor residue or recurrence was observed. Conclusion ESD is an effective and safe endoscopic procedure to remove GISTs. The main complications are bleeding and perforation, which, however, can be cured.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of in-center nocturnal hemodialysis (INHD) in uremic patients. Methods Thirty-two maintenence hemodialysis (MHD) patients received INHD (3 times per week and 7.5 hours each session) for 6 months.Before and 1, 3 and 6 months after entering INHD, blood routine, hepatic and renal function,serum electrolyte, lipids, parathyroid hormone and β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) were assayed, Kt/V and URR were calculated. Blood pressure of each dialysis session 2 months before and 6 months after INHD was recorded. Cardiac ultrasound and SF-36 questionnaire before and after INHD were performed. Use of drugs was recorded. Results Compared with 2 months before INHD, predialysis BP decreased [(130.3/86.0) vs (139.3/88.6) mm Hg, P＜0.01], while post-dialysis BP raised significantly [(121.1/80.5) vs (115.0/77.8) mm Hg, P＜0.01] 6 months after INHD.Intradialysis hypertension (9.8%vs 24.0%) and hypotension (7.3% vs 14.9%) both reduced (all P＜0.01). Serum phosphorus [(1.37±0.27) vs (2.08±0.49) mmol/L, P＜0.01] and iPTH [(355.4±139.6) vs (632.3±750.0) ng/L, P＜0.01] decreased, while calcium increased [(2.64±0.25) vs (2.28±0.37) mmol/L, P＜0.01], HDL[(1.27±0.29) vs (0.75±0.08) mmol/L] increased, LDL [(2.04±0.52) vs (2.75±0.75) mmol/L] decreased (all P＜0.05). URR [(79.7±0.1)% vs (64.7±4.7)%] and Kt/V (1.40±0.44 vs 0.89±0.25, P＜0.01) increased. Serum β2-MG decreased [(17.3±3.9) vs (24.6±5.9) mg/L, P＜0.01]. LVMI decreased [(99.8±29.0) vs (114.8±72.7), P＜0.05]. Physical functioning, role-physical and role-emotional of SF-36 increased (all P＜0.01). The types of antihypertension drug, dosage of EPO, Vitamin D3 and phosphorus binder decreased (all P＜0.01).Patients of drug withdrawal increased (P＜0.05). Conclusion The hypertension, anemia,calcium-phosphorus metabolism, lipid disorder, cardiac malfunction and the quality of life are improved in INHD patients.

Objective To observe the influence of nocturnal prolonged hemodialysis (INHD) on patients＇ nutrition status. Methods Thirty-two maintenance hemodialysis patients received INHD (3 times per week and 7.5 hours each session) and thirty-five maintenance hemodialysis patients received conventional hemodialysis (3 times per week and 4 hours each session) as control were observed for 6 months.The nutrition status of these patients on various aspects which concluded physical measurements,laboratory tests,and dietary record at baseline(0month) and exit (6 months) were recorded. Results (1)There were no differences in age,sex,body weight,and primary diseases between two groups.(2)The body weight,triceps skinfold thickness (TSF),and hand grip strength increased at exit point,but no statistical difference compared with the control group.Mid-upper arm circumference (MAC) increased signicantly from (27.1±4.2) to (30.5±6.1) cm (P＜0.05).Compared with the control group (26.9±3.4) cm,there was a significant difference (P＜0.05).(3)Serum phosphate decreased significantly from (0.5±0.5) to (0.1±0.6) μ mol/L (P=0.001) in INHD group.(4)The nutrition status were improved in INHD group evaluated by subjective global assessment (SGA)(P=0.03).(5) Dietary intake was recorded by a 3-day food record.Dietary intake of energy,protein,lipid,calcium,potassium,and phosphate increased in INHD group.None of the differences achieved statistical significance between two groups. Conclusion As compared with conventional hemodialysis,INHD can increase the dietary intake,decrease serum phosphate level,and improve patients nutrition status.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the level of C-reactive protein/serum albumin ratio (CAR) and early postoperative anastomotic leakage in patients with colorectal cancer.Methods:From September 2016 to September 2019, all colorectal cancer patients who were treated in gastrointestinal surgery of Jinjiang hospital in Fujian Province were collected for retrospective analysis. The baseline data of the patients were collected. The blood C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and serum albumin (ALB) were monitored on the first, third, fifth and seventh days after operation, and the results were statistically analyzed.Results:There was no significant difference in baseline data such as age, body mass index (BMI), operation time and intraoperative hemorrhage between the anastomotic leakage group and the non anastomotic leakage group ( P>0.05), but the hospitalization time of the anastomotic leakage group was longer than that of the non anastomotic leakage group ( P<0.05). The CRP level on the 3rd and PCT level on the 5th day after operation in the anastomotic leakage group were higher than those in the non anastomotic leakage group, with significant difference ( P<0.05). The CAR value on the 3rd and 5th day after operation in the anastomotic leakage group was higher than those in the non anastomotic leakage group with significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:CAR can predict early anastomotic leakage in patients with colorectal cancer.
