ABSTRACT
Objective@#To establish an optimized path for health management of HBV infections among pregnant and lying-in women based on a Delphi method, so as to provide the evidence for intensifying the interruption of the mother-to-child transmission of HBV.@*Methods@#Based on literature review and previous studies, the preliminary framework and contents of the optimized path for health management of HBV infections were constructed. Experts from epidemiology, clinical medicine and maternal and children healthcare were invited to participate in two-round Delphi consultations, and the preliminarily designed indicators were screened and revised. The score for feasibility of each indicator was calculated, and the weight of each indicator was estimated using a proportional distribution method.@*Results@#Sixteen experts participated in the consultation, including 13 women. The participants had a mean age of (45.69±5.71) years, and a mean employment duration of (23.06±7.05) years. All participants had a degree of bachelor and above, and there were 14 experts with vice senior professional titles. The mean positive coefficient was 96.88% and the mean authority coefficient was 0.790 during the two-round expert consultations. There were significant differences in the coordination coefficient of importance, necessity and feasibility of indicators at all levels (P<0.05), and the coefficient of variation of the feasibility was all less than 0.250. The final optimized path for health management of HBV infections among pregnant and lying-in women included 6 primary indicators, 17 secondary indictors and 73 tertiary indicators. Among the primary indicators, delivery management (0.173 4), screening and evaluation (0.172 8) and pregnancy management (0.172 7) had a high weight.@*Conclusion@#A scientific and reliable optimized path is created for health management of HBV infections among pregnant and lying-in women, which has a potential value for improving the interruption of mother-to-child transmission of HBV.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the association between body mass index ( BMI ) and mortality risk among older Chinese based on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study ( CHARLS ). @*Methods@#The demographic features, BMI, prevalence of chronic diseases and mortality among the elderly at ages of 60 years and greater were captured from the CHARLS database from 2011 to 2018. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to examine the association between BMI and the risk of death.@*Results@#Totally 6 023 subjects were enrolled, including 3 006 men ( 50.09% ) and 3 017 women ( 49.91% ), and 68.69% of the participants ( 4 137 subjects ) were at ages of 60 to 69 years. There were 637 subjects ( 10.58% ) with underweight, 1 544 ( 25.63% ) with overweight, and 557 ( 9.25% ) with obesity. During the follow-up period ( 35 091 person-years ), 1 035 subjects died. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis revealed an increased risk of mortality among the underweight elderly ( HR=1.496, 95%CI: 1.261-1.775 ) and a reduced risk of mortality among the obese elderly ( HR=0.671, 95%CI: 0.511-0.881 ) relative to the elderly with normal weight, after adjustment for age, gender, smoking, household registration, administration of anti-diabetic drugs, administration of anti-dyslipidemia drugs, and administration of anti-hypertensive drugs.@*Conclusion@#It is found that the risk of mortality among the Chinese elderly correlatives with BMI through the analysis of CHARLS data.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the drug resistance genes and homology in nosocomial infection caused by carbapenem‐resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB) .Methods Forty strains of CRAB were collected and the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was detected by the agar dilution method .The main carbapenemase genes were detected by PCR .The PCR products were performed the DNA sequencing .The enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC)‐polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was performed to analyze the genotypes and homology of these strains .The plasmid conjugation experiment was carried out to investigate the trans‐mission of resistant genes .Results Forty strains of CRAB maintained the good sensitivity only to polymyxin B (100% ) and cef‐operazone/sulbactam(57 .5% ) .All of them had different degrees of resistance to other drugs .The OXA‐23 and OXA‐51genes were detected by PCR amplified in all of the CRAB strains .The homology analysis showed that the strains could be divided into 4 types according to 80% of cluster similarity coefficient ,the type A1 (19 strains) was the major epidemic strain ,moreover the various de‐partments had cross infection ;the plasmid conjugation experiment failed .Conclusion There is an endemic spread of CRAB in our hospital and its resistant mechanism is mainly related with OXA‐23 gene expression ;in the rational antibiotics use at the same time , the isolation and prevention measures should be done well for avoiding the hospital cross infection .
ABSTRACT
Correctly grasping the International Classification of Diseases ICD-10 and surgical classification ICD-9-CM-3 encoding method to improve coding accuracy and professional level is increasingly important to the current hospital information management.Through systematic continuing education training,the relevant personnel should be familiar with ICD-10 and ICD-9-CM-3 encoding rules,and continue to accumulate the appropriate clinical knowledge to improve their own coding levels.Coders should be a basis,six fits,that is based on the international classification of diseases and operation classification coding rules,coders should rcad more medical records,have more communication with clinicians,understand clinical medical knowledge,do more book search query for [CD code,sum up coding experience and multiply track the latest development of medicine and ICD coding.
ABSTRACT
Combined with the practice of curriculum reform in Xuzhou Medical College for for-eign clinical medical students, this paper discussed its experiences in compiling the teaching syllabus, programming rational courses, increasing practical class hours, establishing corresponding elective courses, taking various teaching methods and using flexible testing mode.
ABSTRACT
There are a lot of medical colleges which carry out foreign student medical education in our country. On the basis of clinical theory situation and problems of foreign students medical education,Xuzhou Medical College implemented a number of reform measures and achieved good teaching effect.These measures included writing new syllabus of oversea students and reforming multiform teaching methods and the pattern of examination and evaluation for clinical theory.
ABSTRACT
Objective Through the investigation of nurses'situation of fatigue and perceived social support, to know about the status of nurses' fatigue and the degree of perceived social support, and influenc-ing factors for a preliminary regression analysis of nurses in order to further the prevention of the occurrence of chronic fatigue for reference. Methods By using fatigue assessment scale (FAI), fatigue scale (FS-14)and perceived social support scale (PSSS) to investigate 200 female nurses in Jining city, 191 valid questionnaires were got, the reclaimed efficiency was 95.5%. The results underwent analysis. Results Nurses who had accounted for 69.11 percent of fatigue, had more severe fatigue than nurses who had less fatigue, and they had tense response to rest or sleep. Nurses' physical fatigue and mental fatigue were significantly higher than the general healthy population. Nurses received higher scores of social support. Age and other factors and perceived social support went through regression analysis: the degree of job tension exacerbated the severity of fatigue, however, social support to some extent, mitigated or alleviated the situation of nurses in the total fatigue. Conclusions Nurses are high-risk population for fatigue. The degree of job stress is the main influencing factor. And social support and care for nurses, especially home care support, adequate rest, in-creasing the number of nurses, good working environment can effectively reduce fatigue.
