Chinese Society of Allergy Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Allergic Rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a global health problem that causes major illnesses and disabilities worldwide. Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that the prevalence of AR has increased progressively over the last few decades in more developed countries and currently affects up to 40% of the population worldwide. Likewise, a rising trend of AR has also been observed over the last 2–3 decades in developing countries including China, with the prevalence of AR varying widely in these countries. A survey of self-reported AR over a 6-year period in the general Chinese adult population reported that the standardized prevalence of adult AR increased from 11.1% in 2005 to 17.6% in 2011. An increasing number of original articles and imporclinical trials on the epidemiology, pathophysiologic mechanisms, diagnosis, management and comorbidities of AR in Chinese subjects have been published in international peer-reviewed journals over the past 2 decades, and substantially added to our understanding of this disease as a global problem. Although guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of AR in Chinese subjects have also been published, they have not been translated into English and therefore not generally accessible for reference to non-Chinese speaking international medical communities. Moreover, methods for the diagnosis and treatment of AR in China have not been standardized entirely and some patients are still treated according to regional preferences. Thus, the present guidelines have been developed by the Chinese Society of Allergy to be accessible to both national and international medical communities involved in the management of AR patients. These guidelines have been prepared in line with existing international guidelines to provide evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of AR in China.

Status survey of job satisfaction of nurses at public hospitals and recommendations / 中华医院管理杂志

Objective To analyze the status and influencing factors of job satisfaction of nurses at public hospitals, providing references for the teambuilding strategy of nurses. Methods Questionnaire survey method was used, in October 2017, to study job satisfaction of 1,047 nurses at 13 public general hospitals, for a countermeasure study. Results Job satisfaction of the nurses was found at a medium level. Specifically, their overall job satisfaction score was 3. 68, and the satisfaction scores of the following dimensions from high to low were: on-the-job training (3. 91), hierarchical nurse use (3. 79), performance appraisal (3. 68), promotion evaluation (3. 67), and remuneration (3. 62) respectively. Contents of the five dimensions are strongly related to the overall job satisfaction (r＞0. 6). Job satisfaction scores of nurses with their differences in positions, annual income, and hospital level were significantly different (P＜ 0. 05). The three main influencing factors for talent turnover rate are remuneration, workplace pressure and work environment. Conclusions Higher remuneration, improved hierarchical management system, and greater attention to nursing care at secondary hospitals are very important for effectively improving the job satisfaction of nurses and ensuring the health care industry.

Proton Pump Inhibitor and Prokinetic Drug on the Treatment of Laryngopharyngeal Reflex Diseases:A Meta-analysis / 听力学及言语疾病杂志

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of proton pump inhibitor (PPI)plus prokinetic drug on the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflex .Methods According to predetermined criteria of inclusion and exclu-sion ,Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trails(CENTRAL) ,Embase ,Elsevier ,Pubmed ,VIP ,Wanfang Data , CNKI and CBM were searched for the randomized controlled trails of proton pump inhibitor and prokinetic drug on the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflex diseases from the date of establishment of the datebases to November 2012 .Revman 5 .1 software and GRAED profiler 3 .6 software were applied to analysis the data ,which was extrac-ted by three independent evaluators .Results A total of 346 related articles were obtained ,7 trails were included , 614 patients in total .The results of Meta -analysis showed that :the overall effictive rate of combination therapy with proton pump inhibitors plus prokinetic drug in patients with laryngopharyngeal reflex was higher than those in the control group [RR=1 .18 ,95% CI(1 .10 ,1 .28) ,P<0 .0001] .The rate of improvement of laryngeal signs exam-ined by fiberoptic laryngoscope was higher than those in the control group [RR= 1 .38 ,95% CI(1 .16 ,1 .65) ,P<0 .001] .The average relief time of dysphonia symptoms was shorter than those in the control group [MD = -1 .70 , 95 CI (-2 .95 ,-0 .45) ,P<0 .001] .Conclusion The effect of proton pump inhibitor plus prokinetic drug on the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflex is superior to those of proton pump inhibitors or prokinetic drug only ,but in terms of safety ,more large-sample ,high-quality randomized controlled trails are required .

Recent advances in DNA vaccines against allergic airway disease: a review / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

DNA vaccine is used in infectious diseases initially, and later is applied in neoplastic diseases, allergic diseases and other fields with the further understanding of DNA vaccine and the development of genetic engineering. DNA vaccine transfers the genes encoding exogenous antigens to plasmid vector and then is introduced into organism. It controls the antigen proteins synthesis, thus induces specific humoral and cellular immune responses. So it has a broad application prospect in allergic diseases. Compared with the traditional protein vaccines used in specific immunotherapy, DNA vaccine has many advantages, including high purity and specificity, and improvement of patients' compliance etc. However, there are still two unsolved problems. First, the transfection rate of unmodified naked DNA plasmid is not high, Second, it's difficult to induce ideal immune response. In this study, we will review the progress of DNA vaccine applications in respiratory allergic diseases and its various optimization strategies.
