BackgroundThe existing tools in China for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint do not sufficiently consider the specialty in psychiatric practice， and the scale items are somewhat cumbersome to use， which together restrict their further promotion and application. Accordingly， there is an urgent need for developing a more scientific assessment tool. ObjectiveTo construct a scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint and to verify its reliability and validity， so as to provide a generic tool for the assessment. MethodsBased on the theoretical framework of the knowledge-attitude-practice model， the preliminary scale was formed through systematic literature review， qualitative interview and Delphi method. From July to December 2021， a stratified sampling was utilized to select 729 psychiatric nurses from tertiary， secondary and primary （including unclassified medical institutions and grassroots hospitals） psychiatric hospitals in Guangdong Province. The formal scale was developed through item analysis， exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The validity of the scale was evaluated by content validity and structure validity， and the reliability was verified by procedures including Cronbach's α coefficient， test-retest reliability， and split-half reliability. ResultsA total of 12 items of three dimensions （knowledge， attitude， practice） were included in the scale for assessing psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. The scale-level content validity index （S-CVI） was 0.941， and the item-level content validity index （I-CVI） ranged from 0.812 to 1.000. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors， and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.948%. The confirmatory factor yielded adequate fit. Cronbach's α coefficient was found to be 0.887 for the scale， 0.819 for knowledge dimension， 0.842 for attitude dimension， and 0.831 for practice dimension. The split-half reliability and test-retest reliability for the scale were 0.712 and 0.922， respectively. ConclusionThe scale shows satisfactory reliability and validity， which can be used to assess psychiatric nurses' knowledge， attitude and practice towards the use of protective restraint. ［Funded by Guangdong Clinical Teaching Base Teaching Reform Research Project （number， 2021JD119）］

ObjectiveTo evaluate the dynamic disinfection effect of the upper-room 222 nm ultraviolet radiation on the air in different areas of the emergency department, and to provide references for a new solution of air disinfection that man-machine coexisted in the medical and healthcare institutions. MethodsThe upper-room 222 nm ultraviolet radiation air sterilizers were installed at a height of 2.3‒2.6 m from the ground in the observation room, computed tomography (CT) scanning room, rescue room and consulting room of the emergency department in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University . The test area was divided into a 222 nm ultraviolet group and a control group according to whether the 222 nm ultraviolet germicidal air disinfection was conducted or not. The experimental group started air disinfection at8:00 a.m., and the air sampling was conducted from 9:00 a.m. to 16:00 p.m., with a 10 min sampling interval of every 1 hour. While the control group only collected air sample with the same air sampling method used in the experimental group, without air disinfection. The air microbial sampler with six-level sieve impingement was used for the air sampling, and the differences in the total number of airborne bacterial colonies were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 128 air samples were collected in the trial, of which 64 were from the experimental group and 64 from the control group. The total number of airborne bacterial colonies in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (all P<0.001), and was maintained at a lower level throughout the entire period. The killing rate of 222 nm ultraviolet radiation to airborne microorganisms was approximately 55.76% to 76.33% in different sampling areas. The qualified rates of the total number of dynamic airborne bacterial colonies in the observation room, rescue room and consulting room were improved from 12.50%, 37.50% and 25.00% to 81.25%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively (all P<0.001). Over 62.50% of the time, the air quality in the consulting room and CT room in the 222 nm ultraviolet group met the environment standards for airborne bacterial colony criteria of class Ⅰ or class Ⅱ. ConclusionThe upper-room222 nm ultraviolet radiation germicidal disinfection can effectively reduce the total number of airborne bacterial colonies and improve the environment for emergency department, and the continuous using of it is helpful for keeping the air safe and clean.

By consulting ancient materia medica， medical books， prescription books and modern literature， this paper systematically combed and reviewed the name， origin， scientific name evolution， producting area， quality evaluation， medicinal parts， harvesting and processing and traditional efficacy of Lasiosphaera Calvatia. The results show that Mabo was first recorded in Mingyi Bielu. Since then， all dynasties have taken Mabo as a legitimate name. Before the Song dynasty， only Calvatia lilacina was used as the original plant of Lasiosphaera Calvatia， which was expanded after the Song dynasty with the appearance of C. gigantea， Lasiosphaera fenzlii， Bovistella radicata and other varieties. Until modern times， there was an addition of Lycoperdon perlatum， L. pyriforme and other original plants of Lasiosphaera Calvatia. Since 1975， the original plant of Lasiosphaera Calvatia in various regulations and academic monographs has been basically uniform for C. lilacina， Lasiosphaera fenzlii and C. gigantea. Resource of the medicinal fungus was widely distributed in China and was mainly wild. From ancient times to the present， the medicinal parts of Lasiosphaera Calvatia are all fruiting body， which is harvested in summer and autumn， and its processing method was to take powder in ancient times， but to cut blocks in modern times. In recent times， its quality has been summarized as large， thin-skinned， intact， full， loose-bubbled and elastic. The medicinal efficacy has been developed from very good for all scores， and after the Ming and Qing dynasties， it is consistent with the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， with the efficacy of clearing the lung， promoting pharynx， relieving fever and hemostasis， mainly treating cough aphonia， throat obstruction and pharyngeal pain， vomiting blood， epistaxis， hemoptysis， and external treating sores and bleeding from cuts and wounds. Based on the results of herbal textual research， it is suggested that C. lilacina is the first choice for the origin of Lasiosphaera Calvatia involved in famous classical formulas， and it is processed into block or powder for medicine.

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of plant-derived oleuropein on GDM mice.Methods Oleuropein was administered to GDM mice at the dose of 10 mg·kg-1·d-1.Body weight and blood glucose were recorded.The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1)were measured by ELISA and RT-qPCR to assess the inflammation level in GDM mice,the activation of Adenosine 5′-monophosphate-activated protein kinase signaling pathway was measured by Western blot.Gestational outcome was analyzed through comparing litter size and birth weight.Results Oleuropein attenuated the elevated body weight of GDM mice and efficiently reduced blood glucose,and restored insulin sensitivity.Oleuropein treatment also reduced oxidative stress and inflammation levels,activated AMPK signaling pathways in the liver tissues of GDM mice,and significantly improved gestational outcome in mice.Conclusion Oleuropein is effective in alleviating symptoms of GDM and improving gestational outcome in the mouse model.This effect is achieved by attenuating oxidative stress and inflammation,which is mediated by the AMPK signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathologic features and differential diagnosis of ureteral fibroepithelial polyps.Methods:The clinicopathologic features and prognosis of ureteral fibroepithelial polyps with complete data retrieved from the pathology database of the Institute of Urology, Peking University from January 2013 to December 2021 were collected and analyzed. All HE staining sections were reviewed by a senior urologic pathologist. Immunohistochemical analysis was done in some cases for differential diagnosis. The clinical, imaging and outcome data were collected, and discussed together with relevant literature.Results:There were 45 patients with complete clinicopathologic data, including 34 males and 11 females (male: female=3.1∶1.0), with a median age of 36 (range 13-80) years. Preoperative diagnosis included polyp in 23 cases, tumor in 19 cases and calculi in 3 cases. The main clinical symptoms were hematuria (13 cases), low back and abdominal pain (9 cases) and no symptoms (9 cases). There were 29 cases of multiple polyps, 16 cases of single polyp; 32 cases were on the left side, 13 cases were on the right side; 29 cases of upper polyps, 9 cases of middle polyps, and 6 cases of lower polyps. Twenty-seven patients had no related urologic history, 10 patients had history of urolithiasis, and the rest had history of stents, strictures or tumors. Local ureteral resection and anastomosis were the most common treatment (20 cases), followed by ureteroscopic polypectomy (12 cases). The patients were followed up from the pathological diagnosis to the cut-off time: 4 cases were lost to follow-up, and the remaining 34 cases were followed up for 3 to 85 (mean 60 months). One case had polyp recurrence after 3 months, and the other case had polyp recurrence after 2 years. Fibroepithelial polyps had a variety of gross manifestations, ranging from elongated polyps or small papillary and polypoid to large papillary masses. Microscopically, they were divided into type 1, type 2 and type 3, and the type 3 was the most common type (28 cases). In this study, there were 41 cases of simple fibroepithelial polyp, 2 cases of malignant transformation of polyps into urothelial carcinoma, one case of polyps with urothelial carcinoma, and one case of polyp with surface urothelial carcinoma in situ; the stroma showed myofibroblastic proliferation.Conclusions:The clinical manifestations and morphologic characteristics of ureteral fibroepithelial polyps are diverse. The three microscopic types are easily confused with many benign and malignant ureteral diseases, such as inflammatory polyps, adenocystitis, papilloma, etc. Awareness of the key differentiation points and judicious use of immunohistochemistry will be helpful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate our novel path based on anatomical division of the anterior lateral wall of calcaneus and the sustentaculum tali for precise sustentacular screw placement in the surgical treatment of calcaneal fractures of Sanders types Ⅱ and Ⅲ.Methods:The anterior lateral wall of the calcaneus was divided into the anterior-superior zone S 1, the anterior-inferior zone S 2, the posterior-superior zone S 3 and the posterior-inferior zone S 4 for demarcation of the screw insertion points by our method of Four Zones, and into the front, middle and rear sections by our method of Three Sections for demarcation of the screw target points. The specimens were scanned by CT and modeled by Mimics. On the 3D virtual model of the calcaneus, one screw was placed from each zone of the anterior lateral wall of the calcaneus to the sustentaculum tali body. The screw placement target for S 1 and S 2 was the medial intersection point P 1 of the front and middle sections of the sustentaculum tali, and that for S 3 and S 4 was the medial intersection point P 2 of the middle and rear sections of the sustentaculum tali. It was observed whether the screws were placed in the bone channel. A total of 72 patients were included who had been admitted to Department of Orthopaedics, Suqian Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University for calcaneal fractures of Sanders types Ⅱ and Ⅲ from January 2017 to January 2021. They were divided into an anatomical division group and a 3D printing group according to their screw placement method for the sustentaculum tali. In the anatomical division group of 32 patients subjected to screw placement based on our anatomical division, there were 25 males and 7 females, aged from 24 to 60 years; in the 3D printing group of 40 patients subjected to screw placement assisted by 3D printing, there were 31 males and 9 females, aged from 25 to 58 years. The disparities between the parameters of sustentacular screw placement and the actual values were compared in the anatomical division group, and the total number of screws, screws on average, distribution of screws, and accuracy of screw placement were compared between the 2 groups. Results:All the screws which were virtually placed in the specimens of the calcaneus from S 1 and S 2 to P 1 and from S 3 and S 4 to P 2 passed through the bony channel, with no perforation into the tarsal sinus. There was no significant difference in the general date between the anatomical division group and the 3D printing group, showing they were comparable ( P > 0.05). In the anatomical division group, a total of 52 screws were placed to the sustentaculum tali with an average of (1.63 ± 0.48) screws per patient, and 2 screws were placed in 20 patients, yielding an accuracy rate of screw placement of 92.3% (48/52). There were no statistically significant differences between the parameters and the actual values of screw placement in the anatomical division group ( P > 0.05). In the 3D printing group, a total of 63 screws were placed to the sustentaculum tali with an average of (1.58 ± 0.49) screws per patient, and 2 screws were placed in 23 patients, yielding an accuracy rate of screw placement of 93.7% (59/63). There were no significant differences in the above comparisons between the anatomical division group and the 3D printing group ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:In the surgical treatment of calcaneal fractures of Sanders types Ⅱ and Ⅲ, the sustentacular screw placement based on our anatomical division of the anterior lateral wall of the calcaneus and the sustentaculum tali can lead to similar clinical accuracy as 3D printing-assisted screw placement does.

Objective:To explore problems and self-experience of the newly graduated recruited nurses in the process of work and to provide a basis for formulating solutions to allow newly graduated recruited nurses to adapt to clinical work as soon as possible.Methods:The phenomenological method of qualitative study was used to interview 25 newly recruited nurses in a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Guangzhou from 2018 to 2019.Results:By sorting out, refining and analyzing the interview data, three concepts related to professional confusion, career planning limitation and emphasis on professional acquisition were extracted.Conclusions:Professional confusion is common in newly recruited nurses in department of psychiatry. Medical staff should pay attention to the psychological status and self-experience of newly recruited nurses in department of psychiatry, provide necessary help and support and reduce the negative experience of nurses so as to make them better adapt to clinical work.

Objective? To explore the knowledge level of hospital infection control in nurses of key clinical departments and to provide a reference for providing more targeted hospital infection training. Methods? The nurses of key clinical departments in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University in December 2017 were selected by convenient sampling and investigated with the self-designed hospital infection knowledge questionnaire. t test and variance analysis were used to compare the knowledge level of hospital infection between nurses with different characteristics. Results? The score for hospital infection knowledge in the 872 nurses from key clinical departments was (20.34±3.21), and the score in 61.58% of them was ≥20;the highest scoring rate was found in hand hygiene, while the lowest scoring rate was found in infectious disease knowledge and diagnosis; and there were statistical differences in knowledge level of hospital infection between nurses from different departments and with different professional title, educational background and students to teach or not (F/t=4.39, -3.69, -3.13, 5.24; P＜0.05). Conclusions? The knowledge level of hospital infection control in nurses of key clinical departments stands at a low level. Targeted training should be provided to nurses with different characteristics. Multiple management measures need to be taken to strengthen the supervision and monitoring over these departments, enhance the infection control ability in nurses from key departments, and prevent hospital infection.
