Objective To learn the epidemiological characteristics of syphilis in Shihezi in recent three years and to provide bases for prevention .Epidemiological analysis with syphilis was conducted in our hospital from 2012 to 2014 ,which is about the detection rate ,age ,gender ,and the distribution in the department .Methods Serum were deteceted by using three methods and the data were analyzed .Results 1 281 syphilis cases in 74 798 patients were detected in our hospital during this period .The total positve rate of three years was 1 .71% .The positve rate was 1 .35% ,1 .83% and 2 .01% respectively .The results of three years was significant differences(χ2 =39 .877 ,P<0 .05) .The rate in gender was not significantly higher or lower(χ2 =1 .670 ,P=0 .434>0 .05) .The ca‐ses were mainly distributed in Han(581 ,45 .36% ) ,Uygur(43 ,3 .36% ) ,Kazak(23 ,1 .80% ) .353 cases were negative by RPR among 1 281 patients with syphilis(27 .56% ) ,and the negative rises year by year .Conclusion The incidence of syphilis increased slightly in Shihezi since 2012 .Though the detection rate between 2013 and 2014 was no significant difference .The focus was on 20- year′s old women of childbearing age .It is necessary to take strict measures to control the spread of syphilis and to do syphilis examina‐tion for all inpatients in order to prevent the infection of syphilis .

Objective:To summarize the best evidence of thirst management in ICU patients and provide evidence-based basis for dinical practice.Method:According to the "6S" evidence pyramid model, the literature on thirst management of ICU patients was systematically retrieved from relevant guidelines websites, evidence-based databases, association websites and original literature databases at home and abroad. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to June 31, 2022. Two researchers with evidence-based nursing training independently completed literature quality evaluation. To extract and summarize the evidence of the literature that meets the quality standard.Results:A total of 17 articles were included, including 8 randomized controlled trials, 5 quasi-experimental studies and 4 cross-sectional studies. The 18 pieces of best evidence were formed, including 5 aspects: basic requirements of thirst management, intervention evaluation, intervention methods, matters needing attention and health education.Conclusions:This study summarized the best evidence of thirst management in ICU patients. Nurses should translate and apply the best evidence in combination with the clinical situation and specific policies of the department to relieve the thirst symptoms of ICU patients.
