Influence of humanized care on self-efficacy, sleep and quality of life of patients in cardiovascular surgery intensive care unit.

OBJECTIVE: The present study aims to investigate the influence of humanized care on self-efficacy, sleep quality (SQ) and quality of life (QOL) of patients in a cardiovascular surgery intensive care unit (CSICU). METHODS: A total of 134 patients hospitalized in CSICU from July, 2017 to September, 2019 were randomly allocated into control group and observation group, of which 64 in control group were given routine nursing care, and 70 in observation group were given humanized care additionally. The cardiopulmonary function, self-efficacy, SQ, incidence of adverse reactions, anxiety and depression, QOL, and patient satisfaction were evaluated. RESULTS: After nursing, patients in the observation group showed enhanced cardiopulmonary function and self-efficacy, better SQ and QOL, as well as lower incidence of adverse reactions and anxiety and depression, and higher satisfaction. CONCLUSION: Humanized care contributes to the recovery of cardiopulmonary function, and is effective in alleviating anxiety and depression and enhancing self-efficacy, SQ and QOL of patients in CSICU.

[Studies on chemical constituents from stems of Cudrania tricuspidata].

OBJECTIVE: To study the chemical constituents from the stems of Cudrania tricuspidata. METHOD: The chemical constituents from the ethanol extract of C. tricuspidata were isolated and purified by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatographic methods. Their structures were identified on the basis of spectroscopic data and physico-chemical properties. RESULT: Thirteen compounds were isolated and identified as butyrospermyl acetate (1), glutinol (2), taraxerone (3), quercetin (4), kaempferol (5), isorhamnetin (6), orobol (7), 3'-O-methyorobol (8), taxifolin (9), naringenin (10), steppogenin (11), 1,3,6,7-tetrahydroxyx-anthone (12), 5,7-dihydroxy chromone (13). CONCLUSION: Compounds 1-3, 6, 13 were isolated from this genus for the first time, while compound 12 was isolated from this plant for the first time and we firstly reported the terpenoids from the genus Cudrania.

[Chemical constituents from stems of Lonicera japonica].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the chemical constituents from the ethanol extract of the stems of Lonicera japonica. METHOD: The constituents were isolated and purified by repeated column chromatography on silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 and MCI HP-20. Their structures were identified by phsicochemical properties and spectroscopic analysis. RESULT: Thirteen compounds were isolated and identified as protocatechuic acid (1), caffeic acid (2), macranthoin G (3), esculetin (4), luteolin (5), quercetin (6), apigenin (7), luteolin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (8), isorhamnetin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (9), diosmetin-7-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (10), rhoifolin (11), lonicerin (12), hydnocarpin D (13). CONCLUSION: Compound 4, 7, 9-11 were isolated from this plant for the first time, while compound 13 was first reported flavanolignan from this genus Lonicera.
