ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of mobile internet management in continuing nursing care of premature infants. Methods The convenience sampling method was adopted to divide the premature infants from January to December in the year 2015 into 2 groups according to the time order, the control group (n = 56), and the observation group (n = 57). The control group received continuing nursing care for the whole course from admission to discharge. Based on the nursing care of the control group, the observation group were given an extra continuing nursing care by using the mobile internet. Both group's continuing nursing care were lasted from the birth till 12 month.Comparisons of two groups were made from the following aspects: of preterm infants born at 12 months in the length, weight, head circumference of the preterm infants at 12 months old and 40 weeks corrected gestational age Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment,breastfeeding confidence;parents care knowledge scores at the time of admission, discharge and 1month after discharge; referral rate; parents satisfaction at the time of discharge and the end of extended care). Results In the observation group,the length,weight and head circumference of the preterm infants at birth were(74.10 ± 2.66)cm,(8.70 ± 1.43)kg,(45.40 ± 1.38)cm, Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment at 40 weeks of gestation,self-confidence in breastfeeding,1 post-discharge and 1 post-discharge parents care knowledge score of the month, parents of preterm children satisfaction scores, respectively(37.30 ± 3.22),(120.31 ± 13.65),(82.28 ± 3.99, 96.70 ± 2.28), (93.55±2.91,96.61±2.37),the control group were(73.20±2.80)cm,(8.44±1.02)kg,(44.2±1.40)cm, (36.00±2.87),(114.54±12.21),(80.66±3.51, 95.02±3.87),(92.57±2.41, 95.72±2.02). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t=-5.244~-2.014,all P<0.05). Conclusions The mobile internet application of continuing nursing care in premature infants can improve the growth and development of premature infants and maternal breastfeeding confidence,promote parents care knowledge, referral rate and satisfaction,thus guarantee the he living quality of the preterm infants.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of treadmill training on expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Methods 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group and treadmill training group, with 10 rats in each group. The latter 2 groups were modeled with middle cerebral artery occlusion for 2 hours and reperfusion. The treadmill training group underwent treadmill exercise on the 3rd day after modeling for 12 days. Neurological function was evaluated with modified Neurological Severity Scores (mNSS). The neuronal pathological change in ischemic cortex was observed with HE staining. The expressions of GFAP and BDNF in cortex were determined by Western blotting. Results Com-pared with the model group, the mNSS scores decreased in the treadmill training group (F=9.931, P<0.01), the pathological damage in the ischemia cortex significantly lessened, and the expressions of GFAP (t=6.73) and BDNF (t=3.78) increased (P<0.05). Conclusion Treadmill training may increase the expression of GFAP and BDNF after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats, and promote the recovery of neurologi-cal function.
ABSTRACT
Objective To construct integrated service mode of medical care in maternity department and discuss its effect. Methods 160 participants who had been registered and taken periodic inspection in our hospital were divided into two groups: observation group with 80 cases from June to December, 2014 while control group with 80 cases from January to May, 2015. Two groups were offered routine prenatal examination and pregnancy guidance, but observation group was also offered additional integrated service mode (including early pregnant assessment, second-trimester educations, one-to-one late pregnant directives, exchanges during the duration of hospital stay and sustained professional postpartum care). Two groups in mental state, delivery outcome, and pregnancy weight control and satisfaction rate were compared. Results Anxiety and depression score in observation group were (41.89 ± 7.50) points and (42.40 ± 7.40) points, and that in control group were (57.55 ± 9.68) points and (55.00±9.35) points, differences had statistical significance (t=-11.44,-9.42,P<0.05);vaginal delivery cases (48/80) in observation group were higher than control group (33/80) , differences had statistical significance (χ 2=5.63,P < 0.05). Body weight of antepartum and gestation were (67.80 ± 8.18) kg and (12.96 ± 3.44) kg in observation group, and those in control group were (70.98 ± 8.82) kg and (14.28 ± 3.68) kg,differences had statistical significance (t=-2.36,-2.35, P<0.05). Satisfaction rate of observation group was 90.00%(72/80), which was higher than 78.75%(63/80) of control group (U=592.00, P<0.01). Conclusions Integrated service mode of medical care can improve pregnant women′s negative mental state, control pregnancy weight, promote natural labour and enhance satisfaction rate effectively.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of microsurgery for trigeminal neuralgia (TN) in elderly patients.Methods Totally 143 patients with intractable primary TN who received microsurgery were retrospectively analyzed.There were 92 cases in the elderly group with age of 65-82 years,and the other 51 cases in control group with age of 40-62 years.All the patients in both groups were classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Scale Grade 1 to 3.After suboccipital retrosigmoid craniotomy,microvascular decompression (MVD) was performed in 136patients and partial sensory trigeminal rhizotomy in 7 patients.The complications and efficacy were compared between the two groups.Results 87 cases in the elderly group and 49 cases in control group underwent MVD procedure,complete and part pain relief were achieved in 78 cases and 9 cases in the elderly group,45 cases and 4 cases in control group,respectively.After an average follow-up period of 2.6 and 2.1 years,4 cases (5.1％) among 79 follow-up cases and 3 cases (6.5％) among 46follow-up cases experienced TN recurrences in the elderly and control groups,respectively.No statistically significant differences existed in the efficacy and recurrence rate between the two groups (P＞0.05).There were 3 cases with aseptic meningitis,1 cases with hearing decrease,1 case with cerebrospinal fluid leakage,1 case with pulmonary infection and 1 cases with deliration in the elderlygroup,meanwhile,1 cases with aseptic meningitis,1 case with tinnitus and 1 case with cerebrospinal fluid leakage after surgery in control group (P＞0.05).No facial hypoesthesia appeared in the patients receiving MVD.5 cases in the elderly and 2 cases in control group underwent partial trigeminal rhizotomy with facial hypoesthesia,but the pain released,and no recurrence was found.There were no dead cases in both groups.Conclusions With cautious and proper treatment,microsurgical procedure can be performed safely and effectively in the elderly TN.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo reveal the relation between rhBNP and vascular remodeling,the relation between rhBNP and levels of serum high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP).Methods20 male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into two groups.All the rabbits were constructed to be models of angioplasty with BC.After injury,the control group were feed with standard forage,the rhBNP group received standard forage plus sibeutaneous rhBNP [0.1mmg/(kg · day),20 days].The rabbits were killed 4weeks after initial injury.The injured segments were dissected free from arteria iliaca externa,processed for histological and morphological study by TD 2000 analysis system of pathology image.The data of vascular remodeling was determined.The levels of hs-CRP were measured at the beginning and the end of the experiment.ResultsThere was significant difference in AUIEM and AUEEM[ (643.2±134.06) μm2 vs (493.7±139.32) μm2 ; (1495.1±204.98)μm2 vs (1265.9±232.56)μm2,P ＜ 0.05 ],extremely significant difference in residual cavity areas and ratios of stenosis[ (519.1±93.47) μm2 vs (308.6±86.50) μm2;(18.68±7.72) μm2 vs (38.04±8.32) μm2,P ＜ 0.01 ].There was no significant difference between the areas of media (P＞ 0.05).rhBNP reduced the levels of hs-CRP on the 28th day.ConclusionsrhBNP can benefit vascular remodeling after angioplasty which might be through its anti -inflammatory action.

<p><b>OBJECTIVES</b>To evaluate clinical manifestations of 21 patients with subclinical pituitary apoplexy and their diagnosis and treatment.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Clinical data from 21 patients with subclinical pituitary apoplexy treated from October 1989 to November 2001 were analyzed retrospectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Their clinical manifestations included chronic headache, visual deficit and field cut. Three patients showed no clinical signs. Microsurgery was performed in 20 patients, of whom 3 were treated by emergency operation. Microsurgery included transsphenoidal decompression in 17 patients, and transpterioral approach in 3. One patient was given conservative therapy, and 12 were given endocrine replacement therapy. Nineteen patients recovered with marked visual improvement (7), partial improvement (8), no changes (4); deterioration was noted in 1.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Subclinical pituitary apoplexy characterized by atypical clinical manifestations may be misdiagnosed or in appropriately treated. MRI is superior to CT scan for the diagnosis of subclinical pituitary apoplexy. Patients with persistent chiasmatic syndromes are indicated for emergency surgery. Endocrine replacement and transsphnoidal decompression are effective for the improvement of severe visual disturbance.</p>
