ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and pharmacoeconomic evaluation of bevacizumab or cetuximab combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 68 patients with advanced colorectal cancer from January 2018 to December 2020 in Baotou Tumor Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 40 patients with treated with bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy (bevacizumab group), 28 patients were treated with cetuximab combined with chemotherapy (cetuximab group), and the chemotherapy of two group was FOLFOX/FOLFIRI program. The short-term clinical efficacy, adverse reactions and pharmacoeconomic evaluation result were compared between two groups.Results:There were no statistical differences in effective rate and disease control rate between bevacizumab group and cetuximab group: 30.00% (12/40) vs. 28.57% (8/28) and 67.5% (27/40) vs. 60.71% (17/28), P>0.05. The incidence of Ⅲ to Ⅳ grade erythra in bevacizumab group was significantly lower than that in cetuximab group: 2.50% (1/40) vs. 71.43% (20/28), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the incidences of Ⅲ to Ⅳ grade bone marrow suppression, nausea vomiting, hepatic functional lesion and diarrhea between two groups ( P>0.05). The pharmacoeconomic evaluation result showed that the cost of monoclonal antibody and total cost in bevacizumab group were significantly lower than those in cetuximab group: (9 009 ± 1 500) yuan vs. (27 840 ± 2 202) yuan and (11 242 ± 1 731) yuan vs. (29 867 ± 3 002) yuan, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); the cost-effectiveness ratio in bevacizumab group was 37 473.3, and it in cetuximab group was 104 430.1, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of two programs was 11 640.6. Conclusions:In the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer, the efficacy of bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy is similar to that of cetuximab combined with chemotherapy, but bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy has lower costs and fewer adverse reactions, so bevacizumab is more economical and applicable.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the mediating effect of rumination in primiparae on the expectation gap of social support and postpartum depression, so as to provide a reference basis for early detection and intervention in the regulation of meternal postpartum depression.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, questionnaires were administered from November 2021 to March 2022 using the general information questionnaire, the Ruminant Thinking Response Scale, the Postpartum Social Support Scale, and the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale to 266 primiparae at three tertiary level A hospitals, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University, and the Northwest Women′s and Children′s Hospital, for postpartum review, and the relationship between ruminant thinking, social support expectation gap, and postpartum depression was analyzed using correlation analysis, structural equation modeling, and application of Bootsrap method.Results:The social support expectation gap, ruminative thinking, and postpartum depression average scores were (16.74 ± 12.77), (39.43 ± 4.14), (6.77 ± 2.77) points, respectively.There were positive correlations between social support expectation gap and ruminative thinking, postpartum depression, and ruminative thinking and postpartum depression ( r=0.62, 0.75, 0.70, all P<0.01). Primiparae ruminative thinking partially mediated the relationship between social support expectation gap and postpartum depression, with the mediating effect accounting for 22% of the total effect. Conclusions:Social support expectation gap can directly affect the occurrence of postpartum depression, but also indirectly through ruminative thinking, and postpartum depression can be prevented and intervened from the perspective of reducing ruminative thinking in clinical practice.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the application effect of BOPPPS teaching(bridge-in, objective, pre-assessment, participatory learning, post-assessment, summary) model based on comprehensive surgical nursing cases in higher vocational nursing students.Methods:The nursing students of three-year higher vocational nursing in a vocational college in Jiangsu province were involved in the study. Two classes were randomly selected and divided into observation group (54 students) and control group (53 students). Students in the observation group were taught with BOPPPS teaching model that required comprehensive case resources of surgical nursing, while students in the control group were taught with traditional case-based learning. At the end of the course, the differences of students' comprehensive assessment scores, learning feelings and teachers' teaching skills evaluation were compared between the two groups. SPSS 20.0 was used for t test. Results:The comprehensive curriculum assessment results of nursing students in the observation group were higher than those of the control group [(65.20±10.08) scores vs. (60.97±10.41) scores], with statistical significance in the differences ( t=2.141, P=0.035). The total learning feeling scores of the observation group was higher than those of the control group [(77.50±4.93) scores vs. (72.21±7.15)], with statistical significance in the differences ( t=4.45, P<0.001). The scores of teachers' introduction, demonstration, questioning, change, organization, strengthening and ending skills in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:BOPPPS teaching model based on comprehensive surgical nursing cases can optimize teaching design, improve teaching effect, and promote learning and teaching interactively.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the normal range of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in 6-18-year-old children in China, so as to provide a data base for the establishment of FeNO standards for Chinese children.Methods:A multi-center study was conducted on 5 949 children aged 6-18 (3 101 males and 2 848 females) in 16 pro-vinces of 7 administrative districts in China.According to the technical standard recommended by American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Association, FeNO was measured, and the relationship of FeNO with the sex, age, height, weight, body mass index and region was discussed.Results:The geometric mean FeNO value of Chinese children aged 6-18 was 14.1 ppb, and its 95% confidence interval (skewness distribution) was 1.0-38.2 ppb.The geometric mean FeNO values of children aged 6-11 and 12-18 were 13.1 ppb and 15.7 ppb, respectively, and their 95% confidence intervals (skewness distribution) were 1.0-38.1 ppb and 2.0-38.2 ppb.For children at and under 11 years old, FeNO decreased with age, with a mean decline of 1 ppb per year.The multiple linear regression results suggested that there was a significant correlation between FeNO and age for children aged 6-11, and FeNO of children aged 12-18 was significantly correlated with the gender, height, and region(all P<0.01). Conclusions:FeNO values of Chinese children and adolescents in this study are higher than those obtained by the previous study conducted from 2010 to 2012.For children aged 12-18, 16 ppb is recommended as the clinical cut-off point.For children at or under 11 years old, the influence of age on FeNO should be considered, and the cut-off point of FeNO decreases by 1 ppb as the age is reduced by one year.

ABSTRACT
Objective To study the levels of CD62P and CD44 in the peripheral blood of children with lupus nephritis (LN) and their clinical significances were investigated. Methods Twenty-two children with active LN were divided into two groups by their clinical features,nephritic syndrome group (NS group,12 patients) and nonnephritic syndrome group (non NS group, 10 patients). Those patients were also divided into two groups according to their pathologic grading,grade Ⅱ+Ⅲ group (6 patients) and grade Ⅳ+Ⅴ group(16 patients).According to their tubulointerstitial lesions (TIL), those patients were divided into three groups, TIL grade 0 group (5 patients), grade Ⅰ group (13 patients), grade Ⅱ group (4 patients). The blood of the 18 patients who were in inactive state after treatment were retested blood again. The levels of CD62P and CD44 in the peripheral blood were assayed by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and enzyme-linked immunoabsorbant assay (ELISA) in LN children and in 20 normal age and sex-matched controls, and their correlation with clinical peripheral blood levels of CD62P and CD44 in NS group, grade Ⅳ+Ⅴ group were significantly higher than CD44 were positively correlated with 24-hour proteinuria,ESR, urine NAG, urine β2-MG and the TIL grade (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively), but negatively correlated with the levels of serum complement 3 (C3) and albumin (ALB) (P<0.05).The levels of CD62P was positively correlated with those of CD44 (P<0.05). Conclusion CD62P and CD44 may be involved in the pathogenesis of LN. The peripheral blood levels of CD62P and CD44 in LN children could be used as one of the indicators for lupus activity, severity, treatment effectiveness and prediction of outcome.
ABSTRACT
In order to explore the causes and nursing care of gastroesophageal reflux in patients with ceryical vertebra frac-ture and paraplegia,the clinical data of 79 patients were retrospectively analyzed. Among which,31 patients suffered from gas-troesophngeal reflux. The main causes of gastroesephageal reflux were improper body position,gastrointestinal dysfunction,con-sciousness disorders,lnappropriate nasngastric feeding,drng adverse reaction,inappropriate feeding time,lack of knowledge in nurse aids and family members. It is suggested to take proper body position,assess gastrointestinal functions,implement naso-gastric feeding correctly,observe patient carefully to detect gastroesophageal reflux as early as possible,as well as provide health education for the nurse aids and family members to prevent gastroesophageal reflux and complications.
