ObjectiveTo observe the effect of nursing interventions on improvement of psychological actions and quality of life of patients with Alzheimer disease. Methods50 patients with senile dementia diagnosed in our hospital were chosen.They were divided into the observation group and the control group with 25 patients in each group.All patients were taken with AD routine nursing care after admission.The observation group was taken with rehabilitation nursing interventions based on AD routine nursing care.The mini-mental state examination (MMSE)and the daily life ability scale (ADL)were used to evaluate the quality of life after nursing intervention. ResultsThe patients' MMSE score in the observation group was significantly higher than the control group,the difference was statistically significant.The ADL score of the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,the difference was statistically significant. ConclusionsThe use of integrated care intervention can significantly improve the cognitive function in AD patients,and improve daily living ability and quality of life significantly.
5.Adipose tissue autophagy and homeostasis in alcohol-induced liver injury
Liver Research 2017;1(1):54-62
Alcohol consumption leads to injury in multiple organs and systems,including the liver,brain,heart,skeletal muscle,pancreas,bone,immune system,and endocrine system.Emerging evidence indicates that alcohol also promotes adipose tissue dysfunction,which may contribute to injury progression in other organs and systems.Autophagy is a lysosomal degradation pathway that has been shown to regulate adipose tissue homeostasis and adipogenesis.Increasing evidence also demonstrates that alcohol consumption affects autophagy in multiple tissues.This review summarizes current knowledge regarding the effect of autophagy on adipose tissue and its potential roles in alcohol-induced adipose tissue atrophy as well as its contribution to alcohol-induced liver injury.

Objective To analyze the epidemiologic characteristics and tendency of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Xi'an from 2005 to 2014,and to grasp the epidemic regularity and predict the trend of HFRS for establishing effective prevention and control measures.Methods The descriptive epidemiological method was used to analyze the epidemic situation of HFRS in Xi'an from 2005 to 2014.The autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model was applied to analyze,fit and predict the epidemic data of 2015.Results There were 8 500 HFRS patients in Xi'an from 2005 to 2014,the incidence rate was 10.60/100 000.The morbidity increased at first and then decreased from 2005 to 2014;the incidence rate was 9.06/100 000 in 2005 and up to 19.46/100 000 in 2010,then down to 3.43/100 000 in 2014.More cases were reported in spring (15.85%,1 347/8 500) and autumn-winter seasons (72.91%,6 197/8 500).The high-risk age group of HFRS was between 15 to 59 years,accounting for 77.71% (6 605/8 500) of the overall incidence rate;there were no significant differences in < 15 years,15 to 59 years and > 59 years groups (x2 =15.63,P > 0.05).The male to female ratio was 3.01 ∶ 1.00,male incidence was 15.57/100 000 and female incidence rate was 5.41/100 000,and the difference was statistically significant between gender (x2 =1 948.84,P < 0.05).The main occupation was farmers,accounting for 66.04% (5 613/8 500) of the overall incidence rate.The top 4 districts were Chang'an,Zhouzhi,Huxian and Lintong;the incidence rate was 31.07/100 000,22.74/100 000,21.09/100 000 and 11.06/100 000,respectively,and the 10 years cumulative incidence rate was higher than the total incidence.The monthly incidence was predicted with ARIMA (1,1,0) × (0,1,1)12 models in Xi'an from 2005 to 2014,and the predicted number of cases was 235 in 2015 (lower than 2014).Conclusions The overall trend of the epidemic has continued to fall but slowly.Positive and effective comprehensive measures should be taken to maintain the incidence of hemorrhagic fever at a lower level.

Objective To explore the relationship between R time in thrombelastography (TEG) and prognosis of traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods The data of TBI patients were collected in Fourth Peoples Hospital in Shaanxi Province from January 2015 to June 2016.The patients were divided into two groups according to the prolongation of R time at admission,and the basic data and the outcomes were analyzed.Results In basic data,Glasgow coma scale (GCS) [(9.7 ± 4.4) scores vs (12.1 ± 2.2) scores] was lower,and injury severity score (ISS) [(32.4 ± 8.9) scores vs (21.7 ± 10.4) scores],head abbreviated injury scale (AIS) [(5.0 ±0.0) scores vs (4.1 ± 1.5) scores],hemorrhage volume [(6.2 ± 5.5) ml vs (1.1 ± 1.8) ml] and mean arterial pressure[(127.2 ± 28.1) mmHg vs (103.3 ± 17.0) mmHg] were higher in the prolonged R time group.In outcomes,the in-hospital mortality (42.9% vs 17.2%) and the rate of neurosurgical intervention (71.4% vs 37.7%) were higher,and the duration of mechanically ventilated [(9.3 ±3.2) d vs (4.1 ± 1.7) d],ICU stay [(10.2 ± 4.4) d vs (5.6 ± 2.1) d] and hospital stay [(22.4 ± 8.1) d vs (8.3 ± 4.7) d] were longer in prolonged R time group.The Logistic regression analysis results showed that GCS ≤8 scores,ISS > 25 scores and R time > 10 min were the possible risk factors of hospital mortality.Conclusion TBI patients with longer R time have worse prognosis and longer R time is the possible risk factor of hospital mortality,and the prediction efficiency of R time need to be explored and validated by more research.

The situational teaching of the course of introduction to medical humanities has some problems, such as low participation, poor communication, and lack of humanities thought. By reading text and creating text, narrative medicine can make students deeply participate in the scene, provide an intro-spective opportunity of being close to the patients, and make students better redefine the story of the other so as to be able to help patients to take a positive view of the disease. Therefore, by using the method of reading text and creating text of narrative medicine, this paper has studied the “4+3” situational teaching model reform of the course of “introduction to medical humanities”, analyzed the present situation and achievements and pointed out that the teaching should pay attention to the key elements, which is “to build a correct value view of medical humanistic, strengthen the emotional education of humanistic care, as well as culture humanistic knowledge and culture humanistic ability”, and it has also put forward some sugges-tions on improving the teaching level of“Introduction to medical humanities”in the future.
