Objective To investigate the modified fixation method in clinical use of intravenous indwelling needle.Methods 100 cases of patients with venous indwelling needle in our hospital emergency center were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 50 cases in each.The control group used conventional method of fixation,while the observation group was given modified method of fixation.The fixation effect of the 2 groups was compared.Results In the observation group,48 cases was with normal extubation,2 cases with abnomal extubation; while in the control group,35 cases was with normal extubation,15 cases with abnormal extubation.The comparison between the two groups showed statistically significant difference.Conclusions In the process of clinical use of intravenous indwelling needle,the modified fixation method is superior to conventional fixation method,which is worthy of clinical use.

Objective To evaluate the effects of ischemic postconditioning on brain injury induced by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in diabetic rats.Methods Diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal streptozotocin 60 mg/kg and confirmed by blood glucose level ＞ 16.7 mmol/L.Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 220-280 g,in which diabetes mellitus was successfully induced,were randomly allocated into 3 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:group sham operation (group S),group I/R and group ischemic postconditioning (group P).Myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery in I/R and P groups.Group P received 3 cycles of 10 s reperfusion followed by 10 s ischemia at the end of myocardial ischemia.The rats were sacrificed at 120 min of reperfusion and the brains were removed for microscopic examination and for determination of cell apoptosis (by TUNEL) and expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6),IL-8,IL-10,glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) and phosphorylated GSK-3β (pGSK-3β) (by immuno-histochemistry).Apoptotic index was calculated.Results Compared with group S,apoptotic index was significantly increased,IL-6 and IL-8 expression was up-regulated,and IL-10 and pGSK-3β expression was downregulated in I/R and P groups (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with group I/R,apoptotic index was significantly decreased,IL-6 and IL-8 expression was down-regulated,and IL-10 and pGSK-3β expression was up-regulated in group P (P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in GSK-3β expression among the 3 groups (P ＞ 0.05).The pathologic changes were significantly attenuated in group P as compared with group I/R.Conclusion Ischemic postconditioning can attenuate brain injury induced by myocardial I/R in diabetic rats,and inhition of activity of GSK-3β may be involved in the mechanism.

Objective To explore the relationship of subjective health complaints and health promotion lifestyles among nursing college students.Methods A total of 775 nursing students in a college in Guangzhou city were surveyed using Subjective Health Complaints Scale and Health Promoting Lifestyles-Ⅱ (HPLP-Ⅱ),and then analyzed the datum of the investigation.Results The incidence rate of subjective health complaints was 57.9％(449/775).The symptoms of the top five were fatigue [19.2％(149/775)],eye discomfort [18.5％(143/775)],gastrointestinal upset [18.2％(141/775)],sleep disorders [16.6％(129/775)] and poor interpersonal relationship [11.0％(85/775)].The mean score of the HPLP-Ⅱ was 133.74±19.10,both scores of the HPLP-Ⅱ and the subscales in the nursing students without complaints were significantly higher than the others,P ＜ 0.01.Further multinomial Logistic results suggested HPLP-Ⅱ negatively related with the occurrence of subjective health complaints.Conclusion Health promotion lifestyle can prevent or improve the complaints status common existed among nursing college students.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics, treatment methods and prognosis of primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PGI-DLBCL). Methods The clinical data of 40 patients with PGI- DLBCL were retrospectively analyzed. All the cases had received surgery treatment. Results In 40 patients with PGI-DLBCL, the major clinical presentation included abdominal pain in 15 cases (37.5%), abdominal mass in 6 cases (15.0%), abdominal discomfort in 5 cases (12.5%), abdominal distension in 5 cases (12.5%), and hematemesis in 5 cases (12.5%). Fifteen cases were misdiagnosed as gastric cancer, 5 cases as colon cancer, and 4 cases as digestive tract ulcer. The misdiagnosis rate was 60.0% (24/40). The survival rates of 1- , 2- and 3- year were 62.3%, 57.5% and 52.6%. The univariate analyses result showed that the clinical stage, international prognosis index (IPI) and treatment method were associated with survival rate (P<0.01), but the gender, age and disease distribution were not associated with survival rate (P > 0.05). The 3-year survival rate of clinical stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ was significantly higher than clinical stageⅢ-Ⅳ(68.0%vs. 13.3%), the 3-year survival rate of IPI 0-2 scores was significantly higher than 3 - 5 scores (66.7% vs. 7.6%), and the 3- year survival rate of surgery combined with postoperative chemotherapy was significantly higher than simple surgery (75.0%vs. 20.0%), there were statistical differences (P<0.01). Conclusions The patients with PGI- DLBCL have no obvious clinical manifestions and a higher misdiagnosed rate. Modified IPI, clinical stage and surgery combined with postoperative chemotherapy are the influencing factors of prognosis.
