ObjectiveTo develop Knowledge attitude behavior and practice (KABP) health education path table, and to explore its application in health education of physician-nurse collaboration for children with epilepsy, and provide practical reference for health education of children with epilepsy.MethodsA convenient sampling method was used to select 94 family units of children with epilepsy and their main caregivers from the Department of Neurology in Hunan Children’s Hospital from September 2018 to March 2019. Divided into observation group and control group, 47 cases in each group. In the control group, the health care education was carried out by the conventional method of medical personnel’s one-way input of knowledge. The observation group conducted health education through interactive participation in the path of the health education path of KABP on the basis of regular health education. Then compared the effect of the health education between the two groups.ResultsAfter the intervention, the quality of life scores of the observation group were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.01). The relevant knowledge scores of main caregivers at 1 and 3 months after discharge were significant higher than those in the control group (P=0.008, P=0.001). The medication compliance scores of children with epilepsy at 1 and 3 months after discharge were significant higher than those in the control group (P=0.010, P=0.006).ConclusionsThe KABP health education pathway can improve the knowledge level of caregivers, as well as the medication compliance and quality of life of children with epilepsy.
Objective To observe and preliminarily explore the effects of Deferasirox (DFX) on lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis in human retinal endothelial cells (HREC). MethodsA cell experimental study. Divided the in vitro cultured HREC into normal glucose (NG) group, high glucose (HG) group, NG+DFX group, HG+DFX group, NG+DFX+ferric ammonium citrate (FAC) group, and HG+DFX+FAC group. Light microscope was used to observe the morphology of the cells; cell proliferation was detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, and Calcein-AM staining was used to detect the unstable iron pool (LIP) content; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay reader was used to detect the reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), and oxidized glutathione (GSSG); Western blot was used to detect the relative protein expression of Glutathione Peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and Solute Carrier Family 7 Member 11 (SLC7A11). Two-tailed Student t test was used for comparison between the two groups; one-way ANOVA was used for comparison between multiple groups. ResultsCompared with the HG group and the HG+DFX+FAC group, the cell proliferation rate and the contents of GSH and the relative protein expression of GPX4, and SLC7A11 in the HG+DFX group were significantly increased, and the differences were statistically significant (F=150.70, 21.02, 26.09, 52.62; P＜0.001). The contents of LIP, ROS, MDA, and GSSG were significantly decreased, and the differences were statistically significant (F=807.20, 16.94, 31.62, 19.21; P＜0.001). ConclusionsHigh glucose significantly induces an increase in LIP, lipid peroxidation, and ferroptosis in HREC. Deferasirox inhibits lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis in HREC by downregulating LIP levels.
Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety of any form of therapy compared with glucocorticoid for the treatment of oral lichen planus. Method The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2007), MEDLINE (1966-2007), EMbase (1966-2007), CBM (1978-2005), CNKI (1989-2007), and VIP (1989-2007) were searched for randomized controlled trials or quasi-randomized controlled trials. Quality assessment and data extraction were performed by two reviewers independently. Meta-analysis was performed for the results of homogeneous studies by RevMan 4.2.9 software.Results Finally, 14 studies involving 9 therapy methods were included. Four studies were concerned with cyclosporine.We performed a meta-analysis of 3 studies. The results showed there was no statistically significant difference in the curative effect of cyclosporine and the steroid with RR 2.94 and 95%CI 1.03 to 9.97. The results showed that the curative effect of total glucosides of paenia plus topical application of triamcinolone acetonide (RR0.21, 95%CI 0.10 to 0.44),tacrolimu (RR 0.18 and 95%CI 0.05 to 0.72), and pimecrolimus (WMD –0.50 and 95%CI –0.85 to –0.15) were better than glucocorticoid. There was a statistically significant difference between fluocinolone acetonide and retinoic acid in terms of curative effect with RR 3.20 and 95%CI 1.03 to 9.97. The curative effect of mesalazine (RR 0.42 and 95%CI 0.05 to 3.54), Mycostatin paste plus desamethasone paste (RR 1.23 and 95%CI 0.93 to 1.61), triamcinolone acetonide plus vitamin B12 ( RR 0.50 and 95%CI 0.05 to 4.94), chitin (RR 1.30 and 95%CI 0.86 to 1.96) was similar with that of glucocorticoid.Conclusion Statistical analysis showed the curative effect of total glucosides of paenia combined with triamcinoloneacetonide is better than glucocorticoid. Due to the mistakes of theincluded studies designs,,further high-quality,largescale randomized controlled trials are required to confirm the effectiveness and safety of this therapy method.
This paper introduced database resources, retrieval methods, boolean operators, wildcard characters and proximity operators of ProQuest Dialog. Integrated with characteristics of literature retrieval of systematic reviews, this paper also introduced how to search literature in ProQuest Dialog when conducting a systematic review, in order to help reviewers to reasonably choose databases and improve their searching efficiency.
ObjectiveTo explore the related factors for the influences and outcomes of mothers and infants, and further provide a basic reference for reducing maternal and prenatal mortality caused by central placenta previa, through the analysis of its clinical characteristics. MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 89 patients with central placenta previa treated from January to August 2012. ResultsThere were 89 patients with central placenta previa, and the average age of these patients was (29.6±11.4) years, and the average number of pregnancy among the patients was 3.17. Nine patients had scar uterus; 8 had pernicious placenta previa (9%); 34 had prenatal anemia symptoms; 44 had prenatal vaginal bleeding with the bleeding volume ranged from 2 to 500 mL; 40 were treated before delivery. The average gestational age was 36 weeks ±4.2 days, and 28 of them were readmitted. The intraoperative bleeding in such patients as had placenta located in the anterior wall, placenta adhesion or implantation, history of uterine cavity operation or multipara was more than other patients. The postpartum hemorrhage of patients with the gestational age of 36 weeks or more was more than that of patients with the gestational age shorter than 36 weeks. The incidence of fetal distress in patients with the gestational age of 36 weeks or more is lower and the neonatal 1-minute Apgar score was higher than that in patients with the gestational age shorter than 36 weeks (P<0.05). ConclusionThe treatment of central type of placenta previa should be more active to prolong the gestational week. Patients with placenta adhesion or implantation, caesarean, multipara and placenta in the anterior wall are susceptible to intraoperative bleeding during the termination of pregnancy. Termination of pregnancy in these patients with central placenta previa should be carried out by cesarean section when gestation is more than 36 weeks to reduce postpartum hemorrhage and complications.
Accurate segmentation of pulmonary nodules is an important basis for doctors to determine lung cancer. Aiming at the problem of incorrect segmentation of pulmonary nodules, especially the problem that it is difficult to separate adhesive pulmonary nodules connected with chest wall or blood vessels, an improved random walk method is proposed to segment difficult pulmonary nodules accurately in this paper. The innovation of this paper is to introduce geodesic distance to redefine the weights in random walk combining the coordinates of the nodes and seed points in the image with the space distance. The improved algorithm is used to achieve the accurate segmentation of pulmonary nodules. The computed tomography (CT) images of 17 patients with different types of pulmonary nodules were selected for segmentation experiments. The experimental results are compared with the traditional random walk method and those of several literatures. Experiments show that the proposed method has good accuracy in the segmentation of pulmonary nodule, and the accuracy can reach more than 88% with segmentation time is less than 4 seconds. The results could be used to assist doctors in the diagnosis of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules and improve clinical efficiency.
