Objective To explore the status of the English learning among nurses and influencing factors. Method A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the status on English learning of 282 clinical nursing from 3 first-class hospitals in Beijing. The influencing factors were analyzed. Results The clinical nurses were in a poor condition and low interest and they had a poor setting for learning English. The influencing factors were found to be their English competency, education level, professional title and medical department (P < 0.05). Conclusions The clinical nurses are at lower level concerning English learning situation, learning interest, settings, learning motivation and a platform for training and practice. Therefore, hospitals should actively enhance their interest in English learning, learning motivation and learning settings and provide them with a platform for English training and practice so that they can increase their nursing professional English level.

Background:The incidence of chronic constipation is increasing in recent years,which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Aims:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium preparation on chronic constipation. Methods:A total of 112 patients with chronic constipation from Jan. 2011 to Jan. 2014 at Emeishan Hospital of TCM were enrolled,and were randomly divided into observation group and control group. Patients in both groups accepted the guidance of diet. In addition,patients in control group were orally administrated with lactulose while patients in observation group were orally administrated with lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium preparation. After 4 weeks of treatment,therapeutic efficacy in the two groups was compared,patient assessment of constipation quality of life scale(PAC-QOL)was used to evaluate the quality of life. Results:The overall therapeutic efficacy rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group (98. 2% vs. 72. 2% ;χ2 = 12. 399,P < 0. 05). Score of every factor and the total score of PAC-QOL were significantly lower after treatment than those before treatment in both groups(P < 0. 05),while physical discomfort score and the total score in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group( P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium preparation can effectively improve the symptoms of difficulty in defecation,hard stool,and improve the quality of life in patients with chronic constipation.

The diagnosis coincidence rate of intrauterine adhesions was consistent with transvaginal ultrasonography and hysteroscopy.Conclusion: In the clinical diagnosis and treatment of intrauterine adhesions, transvaginal sonography has the value of irreplaceable hysteroscopy. Vaginal ultrasonography can be used as the first choice for intrauterine adhesions.

Objective To investigate the influence of participation of healthcare-associated infection (HAI)man-agement department in ward round presided over by hospital director on hand hygiene compliance of health care workers (HCWs)in a basic-level hospital.Methods Implementation of hand hygiene in January-June 2012 (control group :HAI management department didn’t participate ward round)and January-June 2013 (trial group :HAI management department participated ward round)were investigated,the compliance of hand hygiene of two groups of HCWs and consumption of hand hygiene products of each department were compared.Results HAI case rate in trail group was significantly lower than control group (1.49% vs 2.01% )(χ2= 4.31,P<0.05);HCWs’hand hy-giene compliance rate was significantly higher than control group (71 . 56% [3 249/4 540 ]vs 44. 00% [1 914/4 350]),hand hygiene compliance rates in nurses were higher than doctors of both groups(χ2= 151.30,179.92, respectively,bothP<0.001),hand hygiene compliance rate in trial group from high to low was department of pedi-atrics,obstetrics and gynecology,surgery,and internal medicine. The consumption of rapid hand disinfectant of trail group and control group was 5.38mL/bed-day and 1.88 mL/bed-day respectively,the consumption of hand sanitizer was 11.51 mL/bed-day and 7.03 mL/bed-day respectively.Conclusion Hand hygiene checked during the ward round presided over by hospital director can improve HCWs’hand hygiene compliance,reduce the incidence of HAI,and ensure medical safety.

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effects of xanthotoxol(XT) on neutrophil infiltration and brain edema induced by focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods Focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model in rat was induced by transient occlusion of the middle cerebral artery for 2 hours and followed by 24 hours of reperfusion.XT(2.5,5 and 10 mg?kg-1,ip)was administered at 1 hour and 12 hours after the onset of ischemia,respectively.After 24 hours of reperfusion,the influence of XT on neurological deficit score,brain edema and infarct size were evaluated;the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase,Ca2+-ATPase and myeloperoxidasse(MPO) in the ischemic hemisphere cortex of the middle cerebral artery area was assayed by spectrophotometry;the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) and E-selectin was measured with immunohistochemistry.Results XT significantly reduced the neurological deficit score,brain edema and infarct size,enhanced activity of Na+,K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPas,suppressed the injury-induced upregulation of MPO activity and cell adhesion molecules(ICAM-1 and E-selectin) expression in the brain tissue.Conclusion XT attenuates brain damage following focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats and its mechanism may partly be due to the inhibition of inflammation and brain edema induced by ischemia-reperfusion.

Objective:To explore the mechanism for immunomodulatory activity of Astragalus polysaccharide (APS) with peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC)-derived plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) from healthy volunteers.Methods:Healthy volunteers-derived pDCs were sorted by flow cytometry,then incubated with APS (0m50,100,200 mg/L ).After 24 hours,the concentration of IFN-?,TNF-?,IL-6 was detected using ELISA.After 5 days,the cultured cells were collected and analyzed by flow cytometry,light microscope and electron microscope scanning.Results:APS-treated pDCs secreted higher level of IFN-?,TNF-?,IL-6.APS could promote differentiation of pDCs to dendritic cells (DCs) which displayed more matured morphology and immunophenotypes compared to the untreated-pDCs.Conclusion:APS could increase the immune function of pDCs,promote differentiation and maturation of pDCs.
