ABSTRACT
Severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) is characterized by critical condition, high lethality and poor prognosis. Its development and progression will lead to the damage and death of a large number of nerve cells, eventually causing a series of serious complications. The current treatments of sTBI and its complications are not optimistic due to problems such as unclear mechanism of action, challenges in treatment, and lack of effective prevention strategies. In recent years, more research evidences have shown that oxidative stress plays an important role in the development and progression of sTBI and its related complications. Therefore, it is of great significance to clarify the relationship of oxidative stress with sTBI and its complications and to understand the way of oxidative stress participating in the development and progression of sTBI. However, relevant researches are scattered and there lacks comprehensive and systematic summaries of oxidative stress participating in sTBI and its related complications. To this end, the authors reviewed the progress of the mechanism by which oxidative stress involves in sTBI and its complications, hoping to provide references for the research, treatment and prevention of sTBI.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To develop a method for generating three-dimensional (3D) digital models of the periodontal ligament (PDL) using 3D cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) reconstruction and to evaluate the accuracy and agreement of the 3D PDL models in the measurement of periodontal bone loss. @*Methods@#CBCT data collected from four patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion prior to periodontal surgery were reconstructed at three voxel sizes (0.2 mm, 0.25 mm, and 0.3 mm), and 3D tooth and alveolar bone models were generated to obtain digital PDL models for the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth. Linear measurements of the alveolar bone crest obtained during periodontal surgery were compared with the digital measurements for assessment of the accuracy of the digital models. The agreement and reliability of the digital PDL models were analyzed using intra- and interexaminer correlation coefficients and Bland–Altman plots. @*Results@#Digital models of the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth, PDL, and alveolar bone of the four patients were successfully established. Relative to the intraoperative measurements, linear measurements obtained from the 3D digital models were accurate, and there were no significant differences among different voxel sizes at different sites. High diagnostic coincidence rates were found for the maxillary anterior teeth. The digital models showed high intra- and interexaminer agreement. @*Conclusions@#Digital PDL models generated by 3D CBCT reconstruction can provide accurate and useful information regarding the alveolar crest morphology and facilitate reproducible measurements. This could assist clinicians in the evaluation of periodontal prognosis and establishment of an appropriate orthodontic treatment plan.
ABSTRACT
Taking the curriculum integration of skin diseases as an example, this paper summarizes the skin diseases with high incidence in the army such as acne, tinea pedis, warts, folliculitis, corns and calluses, sunburns, etc. The results have been applied to the integration of the skin disease curriculum in Air Force Medical University. During the course integration process, we integrated the courses of dermatology, plastic surgery and burn surgery together, and simplified the teaching content according to the "organ-system" orientation and features of military medical university. In the teaching process, the PBL teaching method was used to guide the students to discuss with the problems. At the end of the course, the students were assessed by tests, and the satisfaction evaluation were carried out. The results showed that the application of high incidence of skin diseases in the army in curriculum integration can help improve the teaching effect and the satisfaction of students, which will provide a certain reference for the curriculum integration reform of military medical universities.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the correlation of centromere protein K (CENPK) expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) with epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) and its clinical significance.Methods:Immunohisochemical SABC method was used to detect the expressions of CENPK and EMT-related proteins (E-cadherin, Vimentin and N-cadherin) in 69 specimens of TNBC and cancer-adjacent tissues collected from patients in Binzhou People's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018. The correlations of CENPK expression with clinicopathological characteristics of patients and expressions of EMT-related proteins were analyzed.Results:The positive expression rates of CENPK in TNBC and cancer-adjacent tissues were 72.46% (50/69) and 14.49% (10/69), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 47.18, P<0.001). The CENPK expression in TNBC was related to pathological grade, clinical stage and lymphatic metastasis (all P<0.05). The CENPK expression in TNBC was negatively correlated with E-cadherin expression ( r = -0.447, P<0.01), but positively correlated with Vimentin and N-cadherin expressions ( r values were 0.503 and 0.415, both P<0.01). The median overall survival time of CENPK high-expression group was 24 months (95% CI 10-39 months), while that of CENPK low-expression group was 42 months (95% CI 19-50 months). The difference in overall survival between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 7.36, P = 0.016). Conclusions:CENPK may be involved in the occurrence and development of TNBC through EMT, and the expression of CENPK may be related to the prognosis of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the status quo of thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior in organ transplantation nurses, and mediation effects of thriving at work between the latter two.Methods:From June to August 2018,180 nurses with organ transplant qualification departments in two Grade A hospitals in Fuzhou, Fujian Province were investigated by the general situation survey form, Thriving At Work Scale, Career Resilience Scale and Voice Behavior Scale.Results:The scores of thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior were 3.68 ± 0.65, 3.56 ± 0.61 and 3.42 ± 0.62. There was a pairwise positive correlation among the three: thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior( r values were 0.270-0.664, all P<0.05). Thriving at work played a partial mediating role between career resilience and voice behavior ( B values were 0.138-0.611, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Ii is necessary to improve thriving at work, career resilience and voice behavior in organ transplantation nurses. Thriving at work is the intermediary factor between the latter two.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the incidence and trend of severe postpartum hemorrhage (sPPH) in China, and to provide basic data for the development and evaluation of sPPH prevention and control strategy.Methods:Obstetric data was extracted from annual national representative sampling surveys based on the National Clinical Improvement System. From 2016 to 2019, 2 978, 3 400, 4 576 and 4 594 maternity hospitals with sPPH cases were included for statistics. The annual incidence of sPPH was calculated according to province and type of medical institutions and generalized linear model was emplyed to identify the determinants affecting sPPH incidence.Results:In China, sPPH incidence increased from 0.62% in 2016 to 0.93% in 2018, and was 0.92% in 2019. Eighteen provinces had an inverted U-shaped trend of sPPH over time and most of them had the highest incidence in 2018; ten provinces had an upward trend of sPPH and 3 provinces had a U-shaped trend. In 2019, the top five provinces with the highest sPPH incidence were Yunnan (1.88%), Beijing (1.45%), Jiangsu (1.31%), Guizhou (1.26%), and Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region (1.22%); the top five provinces with the lowest incidence were Henan (0.55%), Jiangxi (0.60%), Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (0.64%), Liaoning (0.64%) and Gansu (0.69%). In 2019, the sPPH incidence in different types of medical institutions were as follows: tertiary public general hospital (1.15%), tertiary public specialized hospital (1.02%), secondary public general hospital (0.81%), private hospital (0.61%) and secondary public specialized hospital (0.58%). sPPH incidence was positively associated with proportion of twin pregnancies, macrosomia, primipara, and puerpera aged ≥35 years in maternity hospitals ( P<0.05). Conclusions:sPPH incidence generally showes an increasing trend from 2016 and is stable at a high level in recent two years in China. It is warranted to further strengthen the monitoring of postpartum hemorrhage, and improve the capability of hierarchical management and treatment in maternity institutions and regions, in order to reduce sPPH incidence and maternal mortality.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the relationship between physical appearance perfectionism, negative body self, fear of negative evaluation and social appearance anxiety in female patients with psoriasis.Methods:A total of 251 female patients with psoriasis in Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Shanghai Jiaotong University from June 2019 to June 2020 were selected as the subjects. Physical Appearance Perfectionism Scale (PPAS), Social Appearance Anxiety Scale (SAAS), Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale (BFNES) and Negetive Physical Self Scale (Npss) were used in the survey. The correlation of negative body self and negative evaluation fear between the appearance perfectionism and social appearance anxiety of female psoriasis patients was analyzed.Results:The score of physical appearance perfectionism was 49.42±5.32, the score of social appearance anxiety was 58.72±6.24, the score of fear of negative evaluation was 30.59±7.21 and the score of negative physical self was 29.21±6.24. Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation among physical appearance perfectionism, social appearance anxiety, fear of negative evaluation and negative physical self ( r value was 0.402-0.488, P<0.01). The mediating effect of negative physical self between physical appearance perfectionism and social appearance anxiety was 0.164 (95% CI 0.082-0.227), the mediating effect of negative body self between physical appearance perfectionism and social appearance anxiety was 0.152 (95% CI 0.079-0.214) and the chain mediating effect of fear of negative evaluation and negative physical self was 0.067 (95% CI 0.025-0.108). Conclusions:Female patients with psoriasis have a high level of physical appearance perfectionism, which can directly affect their social anxiety, while fear of negative evaluation and negative physical self indirectly affect the correlation between appearance perfectionism and social appearance anxiety. Psychological intervention measures should be taken to reduce their psychological burden on their own appearance defects and carry out social anxiety and fear.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To objectively and subjectively assess and compare the characteristics of monoenergetic images [MEI (+)] and polyenergetic images (PEI) acquired by dual-energy CT (DECT) of patients with breast cancer. @*Materials and Methods@#This retrospective study evaluated the images and data of 42 patients with breast cancer who had undergone dual-phase contrast-enhanced DECT from June to September 2019. One standard PEI, five MEI (+) in 10-kiloelectron volt (keV) intervals (range, 40–80 keV), iodine density (ID) maps, iodine overlay images, and Z effective (Z eff) maps were reconstructed. The contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) were calculated. Multiple quantitative parameters of the malignant breast lesions were compared between the arterial and the venous phase images. Two readers independently assessed lesion conspicuity and performed a morphology analysis. @*Results@#Low keV MEI (+) at 40–50 keV showed increased CNR and SNR breast lesion compared with PEI, especially in the venous phase ([CNR: 40 keV, 20.10; 50 keV, 14.45; vs. PEI, 7.27; p < 0.001], [SNR breast lesion: 40 keV, 21.01; 50 keV, 16.28; vs.PEI, 10.77; p< 0.001]). Multiple quantitative DECT parameters of malignant breast lesions were higher in the venous phase images than in the arterial phase images (p < 0.001). MEI (+) at 40 keV, ID, and Z eff reconstructions yielded the highest Likert scores for lesion conspicuity. The conspicuity of the mass margin and the visual enhancement were significantly better in 40-keV MEI (+) than in the PEI (p = 0.022, p = 0.033, respectively). @*Conclusion@#Compared with PEI, MEI (+) reconstructions at low keV in the venous phase acquired by DECT improved the objective and subjective assessment of lesion conspicuity in patients with malignant breast lesions. MEI (+) reconstruction acquired by DECT may be helpful for the preoperative evaluation of breast cancer.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the application of career planning combined with layered training mode in management of clinical research nurses(CRN)and its effect evaluation.Methods:100 CRNs from 8 tertiary hospitals in Shanxi province were randomly enrolled and divided into an intervention group and a control group. Both groups participated in training and meetings organized by drug research institutions. On this basis, the intervention group was added with a management method combining career planning guidance and layered training for 10 months. Before and after the intervention, career status questionnaire was used to evaluate the career status of the two groups of CRNs.Results:Before the intervention, the total scores of CRN career evaluation in the two groups were(66.64 ± 12.71)and(66.68 ± 12.88), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant( P>0.05). The score of career evaluation in the intervention group was(79.94 ± 12.26)points after intervention, which was significantly higher than that before intervention(66.64 ± 12.71)points; the score of career evaluation in the intervention group was also higher than that in the control group after the intervention; the differences were statistically significant( P<0.05). After the intervention, the CRN career evaluation scores of the junior and senior seniority were higher than those of the middle seniority( P<0.05). Conclusions:Career planning combined with layered training mode can play a positive role in CRN management. Especially, it has a more significant impact on the career status of CRNs of junior and senior seniority.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of a family clustering of COVID-19. Methods Field epidemiological survey was conducted. Result Case 1 of the long-term residents from Hubei province was the source of infection of this family clustering. There were 6 cases (from case 2 to case 7) infected in the whole incubation period. The incubation period was more than 14 days for 3 of the second-generation cases. Routes of transmission include respiratory droplets (from case 1 transmitted to case 6, from case 1 to her family members) and closecontact (from case 1 to other cases in her family). All the age groups were generally susceptible, while elderly were easier to progress to critically ill. Besides respiratory symptoms, there were also gastrointestinal symptoms, of which diarrhea was the most common one. Conclusion Family clustering had been an important part for COVID-19 cases.
