Objective To retrieve evidences on the assessment and management of post-stroke fatigue and summarise the best evidences.Method Evidence-based nursing was employed to systematically retrieve the literatures on assessment and management of post-stroke fatigue from both foreign and domestic databases,including BMJ Best Practice,UpToDate,Joanna Briggs Institute(JBI)Evidence-Based Health Care Centre Database,American Guide Network,Scottish Intercollegiate Guide Network,Medlive,Cochrane Library,PubMed,CNKI and Wanfang Data.Joanna Briggs Institute(JBI)critical appraisal tool was used to assess the evidences retrieved from the databases.Results A total of two evidence-related summaries,five clinical practice guidelines and twenty systematic reviews were included.After evidence extraction and aggregation,three evidence-related themes were identified:assessment,behavioral intervention and health education and they comprised 18 pieces of best evidence on post-stroke fatigue.Conclusion This study summarised the best evidences for the assessment and management of post-stroke fatigue in patients.The best evidences provide nursing managers with valuable references in conducting evidence-based post-stroke nursing hence to prevent post-stroke fatigue and improve the quality of nursing care.

Objective:To conduct a scoping review of domestic and international guidelines on high-intensity physical activity, low-intensity physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep in adults, in order to understand the best combination of 24-hour activity and behavior for promoting adult health development, and to provide guidance for research in this field.Methods:Based on the scoping review guidelines of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) of Australia as a methodological framework, we searched PubMed, Embase, Ovid, CINAHL, ClinicalKey, CNKI, Wanfang, MEDLINK Clinical Guidelines Network, UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, International Guidelines Network, US National Guidelines Library, UK National Clinical Optimization Research Institute and Scotland Intercollegiate Guidelines Network. Guidelines that made recommendations for different intensity physical activities, sedentary behavior, and sleep in adults over a 24-hour period were included. The search time limit was from January 1, 2010, to August 31, 2022, and included literature was summarized and analyzed.Results:A total of 11 guidelines were included, of which only 2 guidelines from Canada and Saudi Arabia made specific time recommendations for 24-hour physical activity (frequency, intensity, type, and time) , sedentary time, and sleep in adults. The remaining 9 guidelines only made recommendations for adult physical activity and sedentary behavior, or only for physical activity.Conclusions:Future research should comprehensively measure the impact of the best time distribution of physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep on physical and mental health, and develop personalized guidelines on 24-hour activity suitable for the national conditions of China.

Objective: To investigate the effects of health management based on the theory of protection motivation on fatigue status, neurological function recovery and life ability of stroke patients, and evaluate its clinical effects. Methods: A total of 120 stroke patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to January 2019 were selected as subjects. Randomized digital table method was used to divided them into observation group and control group, 60 cases in each group; the control group underwent routine nursing and follow-up of neurology, and the observation group was given health management based on protection motivation theory on the basis of the control group. The Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) was used to assess the patient's fatigue, the European Stroke Scale (ESS) was used to evaluate the patient's neurological function, the modified Barthel index was used to assess the patient's viability. The fatigue, neurological recovery, and changes in living ability were compared between the two groups before and after the nursing intervention. Results: The Scores of FSS, MBI and ESS of the observation group were 45.34±8.84, 54.3±4.69 and 45.24±4.18 before intervention and 32.48±5.80, 75.50±4.93, 63.12±3.32 after intervention. The Scores of FSS, MBI and ESS of the control group was 44.97±8.47, 53.47±4.20, 43.48±5.67 before intervention and 39.59±7.43, 63.81±3.25, 55.32±3.48 after intervention. The difference after intervention between the two groups was statistically significant (t values were 15.335, 12.562, 5.843, P<0.01). The difference in the observation group before and after intervention was statistically significant (t values were 9.422, 24.133, 25.945, P<0.01). The differences in the control group before and after intervention was statistically significant (t values were 3.699, 15.082, 13.786, P<0.01). Conclusions Health management based on the theory of protection motivation is more effective than routine nursing to improve the fatigue, neurological function and life ability of stroke patients.

Objective:To explore adversity quotient level of nursing postgraduates and analyze the influencing factors.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, nursing postgraduates from 9 schools in China from April to May 2020 were selected as research objects. The general information questionnaire, Adversity Response Profile (ARP) , General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) were used to investigate.Results:The total score of ARPof 234 nursing postgraduates was (127.77±13.616) . The results of multi-factor analysis showed that family annual income, self-efficacy and positive coping styles were the influencing factors of adversity quotient for nursing postgraduates.Conclusions:The adversity quotient of nursing postgraduates in China is at a medium level. Graduate students with medium or high annual household income, high self-efficacy and positive coping styles have a higher adversity quotient.

Objective: To compare the positive rate of microbiological examination in different clinical specimens, and to provide reliable basis for improving the quality of microbiological examination and management of nosocomial infection. Methods: A total of 2 028 bacterial culture specimens were collected from the hospitalized patients in the Second People's Hospital of Jinanfrom March 2016 to February 2018.The samples were examined by Micro Scan autoSCAN4 automatic bacteriological identification analyzer.Strictly according to the specification of the standard operation, the positive rates of microbial testingof all kinds of clinical specimens were statistically analyzed. Results: The positive rate of microbiological examination in 2 028 clinical specimens was 44.33%.The positive rate of microbiological examination in sputum was the highest(58.96%), followed by ophthalmic secretion(40.64%), eye contents(37.96%), urine(34.55%), blood(21.11%). Conclusion The positive rate of microbiological examination is different in different clinical specimens.The epidemiological situation of nosocomial infection can be understood by analyzing the microbiological examination of different clinical specimens in clinic.In order to provide a reliable basis for clinical prevention and treatment of nosocomial infection, and to further improve the positive rate of clinical microbiological examination, we should actively carry out improvement countermeasures against its influencing factors.

The teeth are highly differentiated chewing organs formed by the development of tooth germ tissue located in the jaw and consist of the enamel, dentin, cementum, pulp, and periodontal tissue. Moreover, the teeth have a complicated regulatory mechanism, special histologic origin, diverse structure, and important function in mastication, articulation, and aesthetics. These characteristics, to a certain extent, greatly complicate the research in tooth regeneration. Recently, new ideas for tooth and tissue regeneration have begun to appear with rapid developments in the theories and technologies in tissue engineering. Numerous types of stem cells have been isolated from dental tissue, such as dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), stem cells isolated from human pulp of exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED), periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs), stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs), and dental follicle cells (DFCs). All these cells can regenerate the tissue of tooth. This review outlines the cell types and strategies of stem cell therapy applied in tooth regeneration, in order to provide theoretical basis for clinical treatments.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of nutritional risk,undernutrition and nutritional support among elderly inpatients with coronary heart disease in 11 tertiary A hospitals in China.Methods Records of elderly patients under the age of 90 with coronary heart disease were collected between March 2012 and May 2012 from 11 tertiary A hospitals in China following the direction of diagnosis related group of Beijing government.Results A total of 1 279 consecutive cases were recruited with the average age 74 years old (65-89).The total nutritional risk prevalence was 28.14％ (360/1 279).The prevalence of nutritional risk and nutritional risk score ≥ 5 increased with age.The prevalence of nutritional risk (12.88％ vs.30.08％ vs.42.28％) and nutritional risk scored ≥5 (10.86％ vs.18.61％ vs.27.78％)increased with age.Judging from BMI,most patients were overweight or obese (BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2),accounting for 53.0％ of the total,and prevalence of nutritional risk in this subgroup was 15.12％ (96/635).The prevalence of nutritional risk in patients with normal BMI was 34.24％.The prevalence of undernutrition defined as BMI＜ 18.5 kg/m2 was 4.25％ (51/1 279),among which patients with score ≥ 5 account for 64.7％ (33/51).The prevalence of undernutrition defined as nutritional impairment score =3 was 7.58％ (97/1 279).In patients with nutritional risk,57 were administrated nutrition support (16.6％);in patients without nutritional risk,21 received nutrition support,mostly parenteral nutrition (16 cases,76.2％).In patients with nutritional risk [(79.46± 7.19) years vs.(76.40± 6.16) years],there were statistically significant difference between those who received nutrition support and those who did not in terms of age and the ratio of patients with nutritional risk scored≥5 (35.1％ vs.17.1％) (P =0.001,P=0.002).Conclusions The prevalence of nutritional risk in patients with coronary heart disease was high.The prevalence of undernutrition was low.Prevalence of overweight and obese was high,but there was still nutritional risk in this group of patients.The patients who received nutrition support were older and had high nutritional impairment score,but the indication is not rationale.

Objective To explore the effect of intermittence oro-esophageal tube feeding on the comfort and swallowing function of paralytic patients with swallowing disorder.Methods A total of 80 paralytic patients with dysphagia who were hospitalized in Neurology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January to December 2016 and met the inclusion criteria were selected by convenience sampling method and divided into observation group and control group according to random number table, with 40 cases in each group. Intermittence oro-esophageal tube feeding was used in observation group, and nasogastric feeding was used in control group. The nasopharyngeal comfort of both groups on the third and tenth day of intervention and patients' swallowing function before feeding and on the tenth day of intervention were compared respectively.Results On the third and tenth day of intervention, the differences between the two groups on the symptoms of nasal discomfort, throat pain, oropharyngeal dryness and swallowing discomfort were statistically significant (P<0.01). There was no statistical difference in the extent of swallowing disorder between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05). Comparing the two groups on the tenth day of intervention, the difference of patients' swallowing function was statistically significant (P<0.01). Patients' swallowing function recovery on the tenth day of intervention was statistically different between the two groups (P<0.01). Conclusions Intermittence oro-esophageal tube feeding can significantly improve the comfort and the swallowing function in stroke patients. Thus, intermittence oro-esophageal tube feeding is a worthy method to expand in clinical practice.

Objective?To analyze the mediating effects of the sense of coherence between mental stress and depression in stroke patients, and to offer guidance and assistance to reducing mental stress and depression and improving mental health in stroke patients. Methods?Totally 468 stroke patients were selected from the Department of Neurology of a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Zhengzhou by convenient sampling between July 2016 and July 2017 and investigated with Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC-13), Chinese Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS) and Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The data were statistically analyzed with SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 22.0. Results?The total average scores for SOC-13, CPSS and CES-D in these stroke patients were (63.39±9.92), (41.65±7.29) and (23.80±4.20), respectively. The sense of coherence was negatively correlated with mental stress and depression (r=-0.47,-0.51;P＜0.01), and mental stress was positively correlated with depression (r=0.52,P＜0.01). As a meditating variable, the sense of coherence reduced the adverse prediction effects of mental stress on depression from 0.632 to 0.283. According to the re-analysis of the structural equation model, the sense of coherence was the mediating variable between mental stress and depression. The fit indexes were good (χ2/df=2.450, GFI=0.942,AGFI=0.941, CFI=0.940, TLI=0.922, RMSEA=0.052, RMR=0.036). Conclusions?As the mediating effect between mental stress and depression, the sense of coherence reduces the adverse prediction effects of mental stress on depression to some extent. Therefore, the sense of coherence in stroke patients shall be enhanced to improve their mental health and reduce the incidence of depression.
