ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the influence of objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) assessment mode on learning interest and critical thinking of nursing students in operating room.Methods:There were 49 operating room nursing students from April 2019 to April 2020 who were selected as the observation group, receiving the teaching and assessment mode of OSCE. In addition, 49 operating room nursing students from March 2018 to March 2019 were included as the control group, receiving the conventional teaching and assessment mode. The nursing students' learning attitude scale was used to compare the learning interest of the two groups, and the critical thinking level of nursing students was recorded by Chinese critical thinking disposition inventory-Chinese version (CTDI-CV). SPSS 24.0 software was used to analyze the data with t test and chi-square test. Results:There were statistically significant differences in the scores of learning interest, learning experience, learning habits, professional cognition and the total scores of the learning attitude of nursing students after the assessment between the observation group and the control group ( t=4.861, t=4.885, t=3.466, t=4.206, t=8.292; all P<0.05). There were statistically significance of curiosity, truth seeking, open thinking, analytical ability, systematic ability, self-confidence in thinking, cognitive maturity and the CTDI-CV total scores after the assessment between the observation group and the control group ( t=4.262, t=4.311, t=2.754, t=4.854, t=3.984, t=2.864, t=4.267, t=2.729; P<0.05). Conclusion:The OSCE assessment mode used in operating room for nursing students is helpful to improve the learning interest and the cultivation of students' critical thinking.
ABSTRACT
According to the demand of the State Department and Health and Family Planning Commission,to promote the development of healthy service industry,improve the health care services and accelerate the development of health industry,as well as the explore of the status of population,society and economic development in China in recent years,it preliminarily discussed care industry.It aimed to discuss the nursing industry;improve the problems of insufficient nursing industry population and unreasonable allocation for the current nursing resources;propose the innovation of health care to satisfy the increasing health care demand of the special population in China;discuss the industrialization of health care,establish the feasibility of health care industrial clusters and preliminarily discuss the development of the care industry.
ABSTRACT
A novel electrochemiluminescence ( ECL) method for the determination of L-cysteine ( L-Cys) was established. water-soluble CdS quantum dots ( QDs) with Cd2+rich surface were synthesized via a controllable one-poe approach. The mercapto group in L-cysteine molecule can specifically interact with excessive Cd2+on the surface of CdS QDs, resulting in enhancement of ECL intensity of the CdS QDs, which can be used for the detection of L-Cys. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the enhancement of ECL intensity was linear with the concentration of L-Cys in the range of 5. 0×10-9-1. 0×10-5 mol/L. The limit detection of (S/N=3) was 1. 2×10-9 mol/L. In comparison with other methods for detecting L-Cys, this method is more simple and selective, and can be applied to detect L-Cys in real sample with satisfactory results.
ABSTRACT
Objective To determine the prevalence of fatigue among taxi drivers in Kunming city,to better understand their general working and health conditions,and to determine the risk factors associated with fatigued driving.Methods A total of 400 taxi drivers were randomly selected for participation in a self-administered questionnaire survey,which included height and weight measurements.The response rate was 88.3％.The survey consisted of four main categories:personal particulars,social habits,work patterns and sleep profile.The Epworth Sleepiness Scale was used to estimate the level of daytime sleepiness and fatigue.Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the adjusted odd ratios and 95％ confidence interval associated with risk factors related to fatigue among taxi drivers.Results A high proportion of taxi drivers were obese and had self-reported hypertension,diabetes mellitus and high cholesterol.Driver fatigue was associated with very poor/poor self-rating of quality of sleep,having an additional part-time job,and driving more than 10 hours a day.Conclusion The findings of the present study will improve awareness of the work and health conditions of taxi drivers,and contribute toward efforts to achieve a healthier workforce.A lower prevalence of fatigued driving may lead to lower risks of road traffic accidents,lower economic loss,higher productivity,and safer roads for all.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To examine the effects of continuous and intermittent exercises on obesity and fatty liver in rats fed with high-fat diet.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Wistar rats were randomly assigned into routine diet (R) and high-fat diet (H) groups, and each group were subdivided into sedentary group (S), continuous exercise (CE) group, and intermittent exercise (IE) group (n=8). In the CE group, the rats were forced to swim continuously for 90 min once daily, and those in the IE group swam for 30 min for 3 times (at a 4-h interval) daily. Both the CE and IE groups exercised for 5 days a week for 8 consecutive weeks. After the experiment, the retroperitoneal, epididymal, and visceral white and brown adipose tissues, the liver, and the gastrocnemius muscle of the rats were weighed. The lipogenesis rate was determined by incorporation of (3)H(2)0 into saponified lipids, and the blood lipid profiles were analyzed. The body weight and food intake of the rats were recorded daily.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>IE appeared to be more efficient than CE in reducing the adverse effects of high-fat diet and sedentarism. Compared with CE, IE resulted in an improved lipid profile with reduced food intake, body weight gain, visceral and central adiposity, and fatty liver. The effect of high-fat diet and different exercises on weight gain, adiposity, fatty liver, and lipid profile in rats was associated to the manner of exercise, time of each session, age, gender, and length of observation period.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Intermittent exercise is an important nonpharmacological strategy to control obesity and the related complications.</p>
