Objective To explore the influence of periodical health education on self-care capability and living quality of patients with connective tissue diseases complicated with interstitial lung disease. Methods A total of 92 cases of patients with connective tissue diseases complicated with interstitial lung disease who were received and treated from January 2013 to October 2015 were selected as objects of study. The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group with 46 cases in each group according to the admission time. Both of the two groups were given conventional oxygen uptake therapy, non-steroidal anti infection therapy, expansion of blood vessels therapy and immune regulation therapy. The control group adopted usual care, while the observation group adopted periodical health education. The clinical efficacy, self-management ability, living quality and other indicators of the two groups were compared. Results The effective rate of observation group was 93.48%(43/46), and the effective rate of control group was 78.26%(36/46), The difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (χ2=4.389, P < 0.05). The observation group related disease knowledge, self-care behavior, attitude adjustment, oxygen inhalation and respiratory function exercise with 5 self-care scores were higher than control group, the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (t=3.468-4.348, P<0.05). The observation group related physiological function, physiological rate function, physical pain, overall health, vitality, social function, emotional function, mental health 8 quality of life scores were higher than control group, the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (t= 2.261-5.456, P < 0.05). Conclusions Periodical health education is conductive to improving the self-care capability and living quality of patients with connective tissue diseases complicated with interstitial lung disease.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 dia-betes (T2DM), and the clinical evidence for the early diagnosis and treatment thereof. Methods A total of 217 T2DM pa-tients were divided into T2DM with MCI group (n=92) and T2DM with normal cognitive function(NMCI) group (n=125). Mon-treal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA) and activities of daily living scale (ADL) were used to assess the functional status in two groups of patients. The general clinical data and biochemical indicators were obtained and compared in two groups. Re-sults There were statistical differences in age, smoking history, education status, high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP), coronary heart disease, hypertension, glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and T2DM history between two groups. Re-sults of univariate logistic regression analysis showed that old age, longer course of T2DM, smoking history, higher hs-CRP and HbA1c, complicated with coronary heart disease and hypertension were risk factors for T2DM with MCI, while the higher education status was a protective factor. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that old age and longer T 2DM history were risk factors, and the higher education was a beneficial factor for T2DM with MCI. Conclusion Many risk factors may play a part in T2DM with MCI. Early detection and prompting medical attention may help prevent and decrease the preva-lence of MCI in patients with T2DM.

Patients in intensive care unit were more critically ill, and often accompanied by dottiness and restless. In order to avoid the adverse events and self-injury, body constraints were often used on the patients. Therefore, this paper would discuss the ethics of body constraints and give the suggestions. According to the literature review and the analysis of the clinical nursing experience of relevant ethical principles, data was collected. The principle of informed consent, respect, and harmless was hard to decide on the issue of body constraints for patients in ICU. Nurses might pay attention to the application of ethical principles, and strengthen the humanistic care. On the issue of body constraints for ICU patients, nurses might pay special attention to the application of possible ethics principles in nursing process and reduce the application of the body constraints, and promote the physical and mental comfort of patients. It reflected the progress of the humanistic solicitude in the current clinical nursing and important value.

AIM: To observe the changes of the number of NKT cells in spleens and livers of induced model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and to study the role NKT cells play in the immunoregulation of EAE. METHODS: C57BL/6 mice were immunized with MOG<,35-55> peptide and received clinical evaluation daily. The mice were sacrificed at the fastigium and the splenic and hepatic lymphocytes were isolated. The changes of NKT cells in normal and EAE C57BL/6 mice were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The percent of NKT cells in lymphocytes of different organs of EAE model were greater decreased than in that of normal mice. The percent of NKT cells in splenic lymphocytes of normal mice was 2.22± 0.14, while that in EAE mice was 1.94±0.07 (P < 0.05). The percent of NKI cells in hepatic lymphocytes of normal mice was 5.52±2.17, while that in EAE mice was 2.67± 1.41 (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The proliferation of splenic and hepatic NKT cells in C57BL/6 mice are inhibited in EAE model, which may indicate that the immune function conducted by NKT cell is down regulated in EAE mice.
