Objective:To investigate the application value of auricular point pressing with beans combined with Chinese medicine for rehabilitation in older adults after total hip arthroplasty.Methods:This is a prospective case-control study. A total of 80 older adult patients with femoral neck fractures who underwent total hip arthroplasty at Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from September 2020 to January 2022 were included in this study. These patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 40 patients per group. The control group underwent conventional interventions, while the observation group underwent auricular point pressing with beans combined with Chinese medicine. Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups.Results:The overall response rate in the observation group was 85.00% (34/40), which was significantly higher than 65.0% (26/40) in the control group ( χ2 = 4.27, P = 0.036). Before surgery, there were no significant differences in various indicators between the two groups (all P > 0.05). At 2 weeks after surgery, the hemoglobin level and Harris scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( t = -7.11, -5.81, both P < 0.05). At 1 and 3 days and 2 weeks after surgery, the D-dimer level, prothrombin time, activated partial thrombin time, thrombin time, Visual Analogue Scale score, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P < 0.05). At 3 days and 2 weeks after surgery, C-reactive protein, thigh and calf circumference of the affected limb in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t = 2.34, 6.85, 4.47, 3.89, 6.63, 4.35, all P < 0.05). After surgery, the time to get off the bed and the length of hospital stay in the observation group were (3.58 ± 2.43) days and (7.14 ± 2.18) days, respectively, which were significantly shorter than (5.47 ± 2.35) days and (9.13 ± 2.14) days in the control group ( t = 3.54, 4.12, both P < 0.001). The incidence of postoperative deep vein thrombosis in the observation group was 5.00% (2/40), which was significantly lower than 10.00% (4/40) in the control group ( χ2 = 0.72, P = 0.396). Conclusion:Auricular point pressing with beans combined with Chinese medicine can promote rapid rehabilitation of older adult patients with femoral neck fractures after total hip arthroplasty.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between inositol level and glycolipid metabolism in gravidas with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted on 80 GDM cases undergoing routine examination at Fujian Provincial Maternity and Children's Hospital from November 2018 to August 2019, who were selected as GDM groups. Another 50 women with uncomplicated pregnancies during the same period were selected as the control group. Blood and urine inositol level and serum glycolipid profiles were compared between the two groups, and their association was analyzed. Independent or paired-sample t test, Mann-Whitney test, Chi-square (or Fisher's exact) test, and Pearson correlation test were performed for statistical analysis. Results:The serum inositol concentration and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in the GDM group were significantly lower [322.1 ng/ml (279.1-364.1 ng/ml) vs 403.8 ng/ml (391.8-425.3 ng/ml), Z=-7.879; 1.8 mmol/L (1.5-2.0 mmol/L) vs 2.0 mmol/L (1.7-2.2 mmol/L), Z=-2.419; both P<0.05], while the concentration of urine inositol, lipoprotein-a (lipo-a), 0 h-, 1 h-, 2 h-oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) glucose, fasting insulin, and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were significantly higher when comparing to the control group [192.2 ng/ml (171.0-219.9 ng/ml) vs 143.8 ng/ml (121.1-158.6 ng/ml), Z=-6.834; 253.2 mg/L (65.0-349.0 mg/L) vs 148.5 mg/L(46.5-159.3 mg/L), Z=-0.187; 5.0 mmol/L (5.1-5.6 mmol/L) vs 4.4 mmol/L (4.2-4.6 mmol/L), Z=-5.547; 10.0 mmol/L (9.1-11.3 mmol/L) vs 7.8 mmol/L (7.0-8.4 mmol/L), Z=-6.987; 8.6 mmol/L(7.6-9.4 mmol/L) and 6.6 mmol/L (5.7-7.1 mmol/L), Z=-7.100; 18.2 mU/L(10.6-25.9 mU/L) vs 11.0 mU/L (6.3-12.7 mU/L), Z=-4.537; 5.4%(4.5%-5.5%) vs 5.1%(4.9%-5.4%), Z=-3.468; all P<0.05]. (2) Serum inositol concentration was negatively correlated with fasting insulin and 0 h-, 1 h-, 2 h- OGTT glucose level ( r=-0.386, -0.416, -0.350 and -0.407, respectively); urinary inositol concentration was positively correlated with 0 h-, 1 h-, 2 h-OGTT glucose levels ( r=0.402, 0.389 and 0.429, respectively) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum inositol concentration was decreased, and urinary inositol excretion was increased in women with GDM. Measurement of changes in inositol levels during the second trimester may be helpful to assess the metabolic status of pregnant women.

Objective To apply Plato analysis method to clinical cases which were reported from clinical nursing, finding out the key link of the risks which were related to the cases:the key age, the key period, the key spectrum of disease and the key projects, etc. To carry out the feedforward control of the quality of care, and ensure the quality and safety of nursing. Methods A database were set up including clinical special cases, high-risk cases, security hidden danger cases and emergency cases. Thetwo eightprinciple of Plato analysis method was used to find out the main factors, the principal contradiction, the key hazard and the key problems of the cases, etc. The aim was to provide guidelines of risk analysis, risk prevention and risk aversion for nurses, and improve their consciousness of security hidden danger, and reduce security hidden danger cases. Results The results of 207 cases collected from 2014 to 2015 showed that the main risks involved the age groups were 41-80 years old and 21-30 years old. The major risks involved the spectrum of disease were the nervous system, cardiovascular disease, surgical anesthesia related problems, kidney disease, cancer and respiratory system. The major risks involved the time were the midnight, morning and afternoon. The major risks involved the locations were sickroom, emergency room, auxiliary inspection departments and outpatient. The major risks involved items were disease mutation, psychological problems, medication safety and instrument safety, among the disease mutation, timely discovered, rescued 13 patients with heart and breathing pause, stop 13 patients who attempted suicide.
