Objective: To investigate the effects of acupuncture on the number of associated phosphorylated proteins in brain tissues of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats, based on the protein microarray technique. Methods: The MCAO model was prepared according to the modified occlusion method using occlusion lines. Forty healthy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 4 groups using the lottery method: a sham operation group, a model group, a control point group and an acupoint group, with 10 rats in each group. Rats in the sham operation group and the model group only received binding without acupuncture. Rats in the acupoint group received acupuncture at Dazhui (GV 14), Baihui (GV 20) and Shuigou (GV 25); rats in the control point group received acupuncture at non-acupoint control points. The needle was twisted once for 1 min after insertion and another time in the middle of the 30 min needle retaining. Acupuncture was conducted once every 12 h for 6 consecutive times. At the end of the experiment, the neurological impairment score was collected, and cells of the ischemic brain tissues were extracted. The protein phosphorylation of the related signaling was detected using the 720 phosphorylated antibody microarray technique, and the differentially expressed proteins between groups were screened. Results: The neurological impairment scores after 72 h of treatment: compared with the sham operation group, the scores of the model group, the control point group and the acupoint group were significantly increased (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the scores of the acupoint group and the control point group were significantly decreased (P<0.01,P<0.05); the score of the acupoint group was better than that of the control point group (P<0.05). The results of the protein microarray: compared with the sham operation group, 48 proteins showed up-regulated phosphorylation (≥1.5 times) in the model group and the down-regulated was 28; compared with the model group, 35 proteins showed up-regulated phosphorylation in the control point group, and the down-regulated was 24. There were 29 proteins showing up-regulated phosphorylation in the acupoint group and the down-regulated was 51. The numbers of proteins involved in the function and signal transduction pathways were also different. Conclusion: Acupuncture at Dazhui (GV 14), Baihui (GV 20) and Shuigou (GV 25) can effectively repair brain injury. The ischemic injury of brain tissue may be caused by imbalance of a variety of proteins, and acupuncture can promote brain tissue repair by multi-functional and multi-channel regulation of the protein disorders.

Objective:To explore the effect of improving oral care based on cluster management in ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP).Methods:Totally 126 VAP patients from February 2019 to February 2020 in our hospital were selected. The patients admitted from February 2019 to August 2019 were the control group, and the patients from September 2019 to February 2020 were the observation group, 63 cases in each group. The control group was treated with cluster nursing, and the observation group was treated with cluster nursing with improved oral care. The EICU hospitalization time, mechanical ventilation time, plaque index, pathogen infection, oral cleaning score, oral bleeding ulcer and aspiration were compared between the two groups.Results:After nursing, the EICU hospitalization time and mechanical ventilation time in the observation group were (18.34±4.15), (8.56±2.14) days, which were shorter than (23.56±4.82), (12.04±3.10) days in the control group ( t value was -6.514, -7.333, P<0.05). During the nursing process, the incidence of bleeding ulcer and aspiration in the observation group were 12.70% (8/63), 6.35% (4/63), which were lower than 30.16% (19/63), 20.63% (13/63) in the control group ( χ 2 values were 5.704, 5.508, P<0.05). After nursing, the plaque index of the two groups was lower than that before nursing ( t values were 12.516, 6.654, P<0.05), and the plaque index of the observation group was lower than that of the control group ( t value was -6.860, P<0.05). During the nursing process, the incidence of pathogenic bacteria infection in the observation group was 28.57% (18/63), which was lower than 49.21% (31/63) in the control group ( χ 2 value was 5.644, P<0.05). After nursing, the oral cleaning score of the two groups was lower than that before nursing ( t values were 11.118, 6.240, P<0.05), and the score of the observation group was (14.38±3.60) points, which was lower than (18.20±4.11) points of the control group ( t value was -5.549, P<0.05). Conclusion:Auricular pressure therapy can effectively improve the constipation symptoms, shorten the time required to take effect for the main symptoms, and improve the quality of life of schizophrenic patients.

Objective:To investigate the cognitive impairment after intensive care unit (ICU) discharge and provide theoretical basis for prevention and intervention.Methods:Studies about cognitive impairment after ICU discharge were retrieved in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang data, CNKI and SinoMed from their foundation to December 2019. The literature screening and data extraction were performed by two researchers independently, and the quality of different types of researches was evaluated using Cochrane Handbook 5.1.0, Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) and agency for healthcare research and quality criteria (AHRQ). The Meta-analysis was performed by Stata 13.0 software. Sensitivity analysis was used to determine the reliability of the combined effect values. Funnel plot and Egger test were used to analyze publication bias. The non-parametric clipping was used to evaluate the impact of publication bias on the results.Results:A total of 35 studies were enrolled, including 27 prospective cohort studies, 4 retrospective cohort studies, 2 randomized controlled trial (RCT) studies, 1 case-control study, and 1 cross-sectional study. Three literatures were published in Chinese and 32 were in English, which covered 13 countries, and a total of 102 504 ICU survivors were followed up successfully. Literature quality evaluation results showed that the NOS scores of 31 cohort studies were between 6 and 9, of which the case-control study scored 9. The quality grade of 2 RCT studies were both B. According to the AHRQ criteria, 1 cross-sectional study's design was scientifically rigorous and of high quality. Thirty-five studies reported that the overall incidence of cognitive impairment after ICU discharge ranged from 2.47% to 66.07%. For the multiple follow-ups studies, the first survey data was selected for Meta-analysis, and the results showed that the pooled incidence was 38.44% [95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 29.32-47.55]. Each study was removed for sensitivity analysis and the pooled results did not change much, which indicated that the results were reliable. The sub-group analysis was performed on different evaluation methods for cognitive impairment after ICU discharge, different types of ICU patients, and different follow-up time. The results showed that the pooled incidence of studies using neuropsychological test to evaluate cognitive impairment after ICU discharge was 31.42% (95% CI was 21.82-41.02), the pooled incidence of studies using questionnaires or scales was 38.75% (95% CI was 29.54-47.96), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). The pooled incidence of cognitive impairment after ICU discharge in general ICU patients was 43.42% (95% CI was 30.88-55.95), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients' pooled incidence was 34.40% (95% CI was 23.02-45.79), and the pooled incidence of elderly ICU patients was 12.93% (95% CI was 8.48-17.37), the difference among the three groups was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). The incidences of cognitive impairment < 1 year, 1 to 4 years, ≥ 5 years after ICU discharge were 43.30% (95% CI was 29.47-57.13), 34.21% (95% CI was 26.70-41.72), and 20.22% (95% CI was 4.89-35.55), respectively, and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant ( P < 0.01). The funnel plot showed that the distribution of all studies was asymmetric, and the Egger test result also suggested that there might be publication bias ( P < 0.05). The non-parametric clipping was used to estimate the impact of publication bias on the results, and the result showed that the difference in the incidence of cognitive impairment after ICU discharge before and after non-parametric clipping was large, suggesting that publication bias might influence the stability of the research results. Conclusions:The incidence of cognitive impairment after ICU discharge is relatively high and persistent for a long time, but diagnostic criteria of cognitive impairment and follow-up time are quite different. It is necessary to develop consistent evaluation criteria and rigorous designed research in the further.

Objective:To develop an expert consensus on safety management of inpatients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) (referred to as the " Consensus") and standardize safety management strategies for AD inpatients. Methods:The evidence on safety management of AD inpatients was searched, evaluated, and summarized, with a search period from database establishment to July 31, 2023. This study conducted methodological quality evaluation and evidence extraction on the included article to form a consensus draft. A total of 24 experts from 15 hospitals across the country were selected for two rounds of Delphi expert consultation to analyze, revise, and improve their opinions, forming the final draft of the Consensus. Results:The positive coefficients for both rounds of expert consultation were 100.00% (24/24). In the second round of consultation, the expert judgment basis coefficient was 0.925, familiarity level was 0.846, authority coefficient was 0.886, Kendall harmony coefficient was 0.044 ( P<0.01). The Consensus elaborated on five common safety problems (loss, falling, aspiration/choking, self-injury/other injury, and medication errors in AD inpatients) from three aspects (assessment, identification of risk factors, and nursing strategies) . Conclusions:The Consensus is scientific and practical to a certain extent, providing guidance and reference for the safety management practice of AD inpatients.
