Objective To translate the Context Assessment for Community Health(COACH)scale into Chinese,thereby providing a standardized measurement tool for context assessment in clinical evidence-based practice.Methods The scale was translated following the Brislin translation model,ultimately forming the Chinese version of the COACH scale.Using convenience sampling,584 healthcare professionals were recruited from 3 tertiary hospitals in Jiangxi,Henan,and Liaoning provinces and 2 community hospitals in Liaoning province from May to September 2024 to evaluate the reliability and validity of the scale.In October 2024,the Chinese version of COACH was applied to 44 healthcare professionals in a hypertension specialist ward of a provincial tertiary hospital.Results Of the 584 distributed questionnaires,519 valid questionnaires were collected(the effective response rate of 88.87%).The Chinese version consists of 7 dimensions with 42 items.The overall Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.975;the McDonald's omega coefficient was 0.979;split-half reliability was 0.808,and the test-retest reliability was 0.917.The scale-content validity index/average was 0.950,and the scale-content validity index/universal agreement was 0.980,with item-content validity index ranging from 0.775 to 1.000.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 7 factors,accounting for 79.260%of the cumulative variance,with factor loadings ranging from 0.569 to 0.954.Confirmatory factor analysis showed good model fit.The preliminary application results showed that the total score of the scale was 185.18±17.82.The correlation coefficients between dimensions and total score ranged from 0.116 to 0.905.Conclusion The Chinese version of the COACH scale demonstrates good reliability and validity,making it suitable as a context measurement tool for implementation research at different stages in clinical and public health settings.

3.Empirical Study of High-frequency Ultrasound Observing Sciatic Nerve Injection Injury
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2015;38(z1):10-14
Objective To verify the possibility and exactly of ultrasound diagnosing peripheral nerve injection injury,by high-frequency ultrund observing the rabbits' injection injured sciatic nerve and contrasting with pathology.Methods Twenty-two rabbits were enrolled in this study,anesthetized by injected phenobarbital sodium through the ear edge vein.The rabbits' left sciatic nerve were punctured and cidomycin was injected by ultrasound guided.Ultrasound examination on the left sciatic nerve was performed at different time.After each examination 2 rabbits were killed and dissected the affected limb.The sciatic nerve was observed by eyes and under microscope.Results After injection,the sciatic nerves' outer diameter,inner diameter,thickness of the epineurium,the proportion of epineurium was increased (P < 0.05),internal echo of the nerves was reduced (P < 0.05),epineurium became rough (P < 0.05),demarcation with surrounding tissue became gradually fuzzy (P < 0.05),the nerves became rigid (P < 0.05).Observed by microcrope,after injection,hyperemia and hemorrhage of endoneurium and epineurium,inflammatory cell infiltration,damaged nerve fiber structures,desmoplasia inside and outside nerve can be seen.Conclusions The sonogram of injection injured nerve vary in different periods,and related with pathological changes.High-frequency ultrasound is a reliable imaging method of diagnosing sciatic nerve injection injury.

Objective To study the relation between point mutations at nt3243 and nt8344 of muscle mitochondrial DNA from patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathies and phenotypes. Methods DNA was extracted from muscle specimens from 5 patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathies and amplified by PCR method, using corresponding oligonucleotide primers. DNA fragments were digested with restriction enzymes BglⅠ and ApaⅠ, then the digested DNA fragments were analyzed with an electrophoresis method.Results The point mutation at nt3243 of mtDNA was found in 2 patients, one with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) and another with myoclonic epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERRF). The point mutation at nt8344 was found in 2 patients with MERRF, including the one with point mutation at nt3243.Conclusion The point mutation of DNA at nt3243 correlated with MELAS and nt8344 correlated with MERRF. In addition, the detection of point mutations at both nt3243 and nt8344 in a patient with MERRF shows the association of mutation with diversity in clinical manifestations of mitochondrial encephalomyopathies.
