Objective To investigate the status quo of knowledge and attitude towards pain among medical staff in West China Hospital of Sichuan University. Methods The medical staff in Emergency Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were investigated by the Chinese version of Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain (2008) questionnaire, the contents of which related to pain assessment, pain related knowledge, analgesic related knowledge, and comprehensive application, etc. And the questionnaire scores were compared among medical workers with different background. Results A total of 156 questionnaires were sent out and 130 valid ones were taken back, with an effective recovery rate of 83.3%. There was no statistically significant difference in questionnaire scores among the medical workers with different education background or different professional titles (P>0.05). The questionnaire scores were significantly different among nurses with different seniority (F=3.785, P=0.035), and the mean score of the nurses with more than 10 years of seniority was the highest (22.78±7.11). The questionnaire scores were significantly different among nurses working in different areas (F=3.043, P=0.033), and the mean score of the nurses working in rescue room was the highest (24.53±7.84).The erroneous items were concentrated on item 5, 17, 19. In the answers to the open questions, 97.7% (127/130) thought that the existing pain knowledge could not satisfy the needs of clinical work; 100.0% (130/130) believed that it was necessary to study pain related knowledge; 80.0% (104/130) acquired pain related knowledge from clinical experience, 40.0% (52/130) from books, 15.4% (20/130) from the network; 90% ( 117/130) commonly used numeric rating scale to evaluate the patients’ pain degree, 20.0% (26/130) evaluated the patients’ pain degree through facial expressions. Conclusions The overall level of pain management knowledge and attitude in medical staff in Emergency Department is low. The continuing education on pain knowledge should be strengthened, the attitude towards pain treatment and the importance of pain management should be paid more attention, and the standardized training and supervision should be enhanced.

ObjectiveTo explore the knowledge and attitude of pain management in undergraduate nursing students, analyze the influencing factors, and improve the future education of the undergraduate nursing students. MethodsA total of 220 undergraduate nursing students were investigated with the Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain between November 2014 to June 2013. ResultsUndergraduate nursing students were lack of cognition on pain management and attitude, with an average wrong answer rate of 55.70%; the difference in reading related books or journals in pain, pain management training, and frequency of usage of pain assessment tools among the influential factors were significant (P < 0.05). The most common factor was the lack of pain management training. ConclusionsThe knowledge level of pain management in undergraduate nursing students who are lack of pain management training needs to be improved. Medical schools might optimize pain management courses, and hospitals should enhance the pain management training of clinical nurses so as to make them assess patients correctly by using pain assessment tools. In addition, it's necessary to enhance the nursing students' pain management practice during the clinical practice, so as to improve the pain management knowledge level in undergraduate nursing students.
ObjectiveTo analyze the status and influencing factors of awareness of diabetic retinopathy (DR) knowledge in diabetics in Funing County, Jiangsu Province. MethodsThis is a cross-sectional study. In 2021, a total of 2 125 residents with diabetes in Funing County, Jiangsu Province were recruited using cluster random sampling methods. General examinations were performed and ophthalmological evaluation were conducted including visual acuity in daily life, slit lamp microscope with preset lens, digital non-mydriatic fundus photography. Clinical assessment and classification of DR were according to the international standard clinical classifications of diabetic retinopathy in 2019. DR was classified into no obvious DR, mild non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), moderate NPDR, severe NPDR and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Field questionnaire surveys were conducted to show the awareness rate of DR knowledge. Then Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were used to investigate influencing factors. ResultsAmong 2 125 subjects, 762 (35.86%, 762/2 125) residents were male and 1 363 (64.14%, 1 363/2 125) residents were female. A total of 444 (20.89%, 444/2 125) subjects were diagnosed as DR. Among which, 438 (20.61%, 438/2 125) subjects were NPDR, 6 (0.28%, 6/2 125) subjects were PDR. A total of 419 (19.72%, 419/2 125) subjects were diagnosed as cataract. The topic awareness rates were all below 45.00%. The overall population awareness rate was 19.45% (4 959/25 500). Awareness rate was correlated with age, visual acuity in daily life, education level, family history of diabetes, diabetic retinopathy grades and the type of treatment for diabetes (P＜0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the knowledge rate of prevention and treatment of DR Decreased significantly in patients aged 60-79 compared with those aged under 50 (P＜0.05). Compared with those with visual acuity＜0.1 in daily life, the knowledge rate of DR prevention and treatment in those with visual acuity≥0.1 was significantly decreased (P＜0.05). While primary school to college education, with family history of diabetes, with DR, oral hypoglycemic agents and/or insulin treatment were associated with higher awareness rate (P＜0.05). ConclusionsThe DR knowledge level is low among diabetics in Funing County, Jiangsu Province in 2021. Age, visual acuity in daily life, education level, family history of diabetes, with DR and receiving drug treatments are main influencing factors for diabetic’s awareness.
The medical literature contains a wealth of valuable medical knowledge. At present, the research on extraction of entity relationship in medical literature has made great progress, but with the exponential increase in the number of medical literature, the annotation of medical text has become a big problem. In order to solve the problem of manual annotation time such as consuming and heavy workload, a remote monitoring annotation method is proposed, but this method will introduce a lot of noise. In this paper, a novel neural network structure based on convolutional neural network is proposed, which can solve a large number of noise problems. The model can use the multi-window convolutional neural network to automatically extract sentence features. After the sentence vectors are obtained, the sentences that are effective to the real relationship are selected through the attention mechanism. In particular, an entity type (ET) embedding method is proposed for relationship classification by adding entity type characteristics. The attention mechanism at sentence level is proposed for relation extraction in allusion to the unavoidable labeling errors in training texts. We conducted an experiment using 968 medical references on diabetes, and the results showed that compared with the baseline model, the present model achieved good results in the medical literature, and F1-score reached 93.15%. Finally, the extracted 11 types of relationships were stored as triples, and these triples were used to create a medical map of complex relationships with 33 347 nodes and 43 686 relationship edges. Experimental results show that the algorithm used in this paper is superior to the optimal reference system for relationship extraction.

ObjectiveTo understand the levels of and influencing factors for knowledge of earthquake in the elderly population. MethodPeople who were older than 60 years in the earthquake area of Sichuan Province were surveyed by self-designed earthquake knowledge scale composed of 6 items with a point of 1-5 for each item between October and November 2013. The total score ranged from 6 to 30 points. ResultsUp to 1 509 elderly people participated the survey. The total score of earthquake knowledge was 13.33±4.85. The main resource for acquiring those knowledge was TV (76.87%). Occupation, education level, residency, marital status, residence, self-injury, health status, access to earthquake knowledge, and worrying about earthquake were related factors for their knowledge on earthquake (P<0.05). Regression analysis showed that the higher degree of education, having a spouse, living in city, more access to earthquake knowledge, worrying about earthquake were the promotion factors for earthquake knowledge preparedness. Self-injury, poor health were the factors that hindered the acquiring of earthquake knowledge preparedness. ConclusionsIt is necessary to train knowledge of earthquake for elderly people individually because they lack enough resources and tend to be affected by many factors.
