Objective:To explore the correlation between post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD),resilience and quality of life of front-line medical staff in public health emergencies.Methods:From Nov to Dec 2020,the medical staff of 4 COVID-19 designated hospitals in Wuhan were investigated with the general demographic questionnaire,10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale,PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 and Simplify Qualify of Life Scale.Spearman correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were used to investigate the correlation between PTSD,resilience and quality of life.Results:A total of 545 questionnaires were collected in this survey and the valid effective rate was 97.8% (533/545).The score of psychological resilience,PTSD and quality of life of medical staff were 26(20,30),17(8,25),and 20(18,23),respectively.And 13.1% (70/533)of medical staff had obvious PTSD symptoms.There were significant differences in the score of quality of life among medical staff with different genders,occupations and PTSD levels.Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the score of PTSD was negatively correlated with quality of life and psychological resilience(r=-0.488 and-0.464,P＜0.01).The score of psychological resilience was positively correlated with the score of quality of life(r =0.578,P＜0.01).Psychological resilience and PTSD were important predictors of quality of life,with an explanatory capacity of 37.0% .Conclusions:PTSD is a risk factor for quality of life,and psychological resilience is a protective factor for quality of life.In public health emergencies,improving psychological resilience,preventing and treating PTSD can improve the quality of life of medical staff.

Objective: To explore the effect of behavioral activation (BA) therapy on depressive mood and behavioral characteristics among subliminal depressed nursing students, and to provide a reference for effective mental health education to nursing students. Methods: A cluster sampling method was used to select 614 sophomore nursing students from a medical college in Jiangxi Province. Sixty subjects who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study, and divided into a control group and an intervention group using a random number table method, with 30 participants in each group. The control group received general mental health education, and the intervention group participated in a BA intervention on the basis of general mental health education. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D), Beck Depression Inventory II(BDI-II) and the Behavioral Activation For Depression Scale Short Form (BADS-SF) were used to evaluate students depression status before, immediately after, and 1 month after the intervention, respectively. Results: The time effect, group effect, and time group interaction of the CES-D, BDI-II and BADS-SF scores of the two groups of students were all statistically significant ( F =82.78, 9.65, 69.92; 42.19, 10.52, 13.50; 15.59 , 19.61, 8.49, P <0.01). Immediately after the intervention and 1 month after the intervention, the CES-D and BDI-II scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group, and the BADS-SF score of the intervention group (14.63±4.63, 14.80±4.85; 11.23±4.98, 11.13±5.53) was significantly lower than that of the control group (22.67±6.70, 22.13±5.66; 17.57±9.59, 18.37±7.91); the differences were all statistically significant ( P <0.05). Conclusion BA shows lasting effects on alleviating depressive symptoms among nursing students with subthreshold depression, improve their behavioral activation level, and have a lasting effect. Nursing educators can improve the depression of nursing students and improve their mental health through individual BA.

Objective:To explore the death risk factors of extremely severe burn patients, establish a death risk nomogram predicting model, and investigate the predictive value for death risk of extremely severe burn patients.Methods:The medical records of 231 extremely severe burn patients (190 males and 41 females, aged 18-60 years) who were admitted to the Institute of Burn Research of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2010 to October 2018 and met the inclusion criteria were analyzed retrospectively. According to the final outcome, the patients were divided into survival group of 173 patients and death group of 58 patients. The sex, age, severity of inhalation injury, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, burn index, rehydration coefficient and urine volume coefficient of the first and second 24 h after injury, the first base excess, shock index, and hematocrit (HCT) after admission, whether to have pre-hospital fluid infusion, use of ventilator, and use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), and abbreviated burn severity index (ABSI ) and Baux score on admission of patients in the two groups were recorded or calculated. According to the use of ventilator, the patients were divided into with ventilator group of 131 patients and without ventilator group of 100 patients, and the death, total burn surface area, burn index, incidence and severity of inhalation injury were recorded. According to the use of CRRT, the patients were divided into with CRRT group of 59 patients and without CRRT group of 172 patients, and the death, total burn surface area, and burn index were recorded. Data were statistically analyzed with t test, chi-square test, and Mann-Whitney U test to screen the death related factors of patients. The indexes with statistically significant differences between survival group and death group were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis to screen the independent death risk factors of patients, and the death risk nomogram predicting model was constructed based on the results.The Bootstrap method was used to validate the death risk nomogram predicting model internally. The predictive value of the nomogram model for predicting death risk of patients was detected by drawing calibration graph and calculating concordance index, and the death risk scores of 231 patients were acquired according to the death risk nomogram model. The receiver′s operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and the optimal threshold and the sensitivity and specificity of optimal threshold in the ROC curve and the area under the curve were calculated. Results:(1) There were statistically significant differences in burn index, ABSI on admission, severity of inhalation injury, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, rehydration coefficient at the first 24 h after injury, use of ventilator, use of CRRT, and Baux score on admission of patients between the two groups ( Z=-7.696, -7.031, χ2=18.304, 63.065, 23.300, 13.073, 34.240, 59.586, t=-7.536, P<0.01). (2) There were statistically significant differences in death, incidence and severity of inhalation injury, total burn area, and burn index of patients between with ventilator group and without ventilator group ( χ2=34.240, 17.394, 25.479, Z=-6.557, -7.049, P<0.01). (3) There were statistically significant differences in death, total burn area, and burn index of patients between with CRRT group and without CRRT group ( χ2=62.982, Z= -47.421, -6.678, P<0.01). (4) The use of ventilator, use of CRRT, and burn index were independent risk factors for the death of extremely severe burn patients (odds ratio=3.277, 5.587, 1.067, 95% confidence interval=1.073-10.008, 2.384-13.093, 1.038-1.096, P<0.05 or P<0.01). (5) The initial concordance index of nomogram predicting model was 0.90 and the corrected concordance index was 0.89. The concordance indexes before and after correction were higher and similar, which showed that the nomogram had good concordance and predictive effect. The optimum threshold of ROC curve was 0.23, the sensitivity and specificity of optimum threshold were 86.0% and 80.0%, respectively, and the area under ROC curve was 0.90 (95% confidence interval=0.86-0.94, P<0.01). Conclusions:Severe burns and damage and/or failure of organ are the main death causes of extremely severe burn patients. The death risk nomogram predicting model established on the basis of use of ventilator, use of CRRT, and burn index have good predictive ability for death of extremely severe burn patients.

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a global health problem that causes major illnesses and disabilities worldwide. Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that the prevalence of AR has increased progressively over the last few decades in more developed countries and currently affects up to 40% of the population worldwide. Likewise, a rising trend of AR has also been observed over the last 2–3 decades in developing countries including China, with the prevalence of AR varying widely in these countries. A survey of self-reported AR over a 6-year period in the general Chinese adult population reported that the standardized prevalence of adult AR increased from 11.1% in 2005 to 17.6% in 2011. An increasing number of original articles and imporclinical trials on the epidemiology, pathophysiologic mechanisms, diagnosis, management and comorbidities of AR in Chinese subjects have been published in international peer-reviewed journals over the past 2 decades, and substantially added to our understanding of this disease as a global problem. Although guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of AR in Chinese subjects have also been published, they have not been translated into English and therefore not generally accessible for reference to non-Chinese speaking international medical communities. Moreover, methods for the diagnosis and treatment of AR in China have not been standardized entirely and some patients are still treated according to regional preferences. Thus, the present guidelines have been developed by the Chinese Society of Allergy to be accessible to both national and international medical communities involved in the management of AR patients. These guidelines have been prepared in line with existing international guidelines to provide evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of AR in China.

Objective To analysis the mental health status of the victims in Wenchuan earthquake. Methods Post-traumatic stress disorder checklist-civilian version (PCL-C), symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90) , Zung' s self-rating anxious scale/depressive scale (SAS/SDS) and simple coping style ques-tionnaires were use to investigate the mental health status of the victims that were transferred to Xinaiao Hospital, Third Military Medical University, one month after earthquake. Results (1) Compared with national ensemble, SCL-90 scores ranked the highest in aspects of somatization and anxiety (t = 3.733, P <0.01; t = 2.368, P < 0.05) but the score of paranoid ideation decreased significantly (t =-3.584, P<0.01), with score over 3 accounting for 20.7%. (2) The proportion of moderate anxiety and depres-sion was 21.7% and 26.0%, respectively. (3) The PCL-C total score was positively correlated with SCL-90 scores and SAS scores (r = 0.642, P < 0.01 ; r = 0.506, P < 0.05), but negatively with negative items in SCL-90(r =-0.681, P <0. 01). (4) Multiple linear regression analysis showed that 36. 6% of variation of PCL-C total score could be forecast by comhining SAS scores with positive copy scores. Conclusions One month after earthquake, more. than 20% of the victims transferred to Xinqiao Hospital have moderate mental health problem and need early mental intervention for improvement in physical and mental health.
