Objective To explore the relationship of self-efficacy and coping styles with parenting styles in patients with schizophrenia, and provide the theory and practical basis for family-interventions of rehabilitation of patients with schizophrenia. Methods From January to June 2015, General Self- Efficacy Scale, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire and Egma Minnen av Bardndosnauppforstran were used to evaluate 60 inpatients with schizophrenia and in good rehabilitation in a grade A tertiary general hospital. Results The scores of self-efficacy, parental emotional warmth and father’s over protection were lower in patients with schizophrenia than the norms (P<0.01). The scores of parental punishment and rejection and father’s over intervention were higher in patients with schizophrenia than the norms (P<0.01). In patients with schizophrenia, the active coping domain was positively correlated to parental emotion warmth (P<0.05); the negative coping domain was positively correlated to parental rejection, father’s over protection and mother’s over intervention (P<0.05); self-efficacy was positively correlated to father’s emotion warmth and preference of parents (P<0.05). Conclusions Active family-interventions is important in the rehabilitation of patients with schizophrenia. The parents should be instructed to correctly educate the children, to improve the patients’ general self-efficacy, and help the patients successfully solve the problem with good coping style.
Hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP) is a type of disease unique to women during pregnancy. The most common clinical types are gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, which seriously threaten the health of pregnant women and fetuses. At present, there are no established criteria for the prediction and prevention of HDP. In recent years, a large number of studies have been carried out on HDP around the world, and many studies have shown a close correlation between serum uric acid and HDP. This article reviews the results of existing literature, elucidates the relationship between serum uric acid and the pathogenesis of HDP, prediction of HDP occurrence and development, and adverse pregnancy outcomes.
ObjectiveTo investigate the primary culture method of human papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) cells for a long term and establish a monitoring and verification measures. MethodsPTC cells were isolated following routine procedures and cultured in the DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, glutamine, and 20 ng/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF). Thyroglobulin (Tg) and thyroperoxidase (TPO) in nutrient solution and specific antigen Tg expression of PTC cells cultured for different days were observed. ResultsThe PTC cells grew satisfactorily up to 45 days of incubation. Tg content in nutrient solution expressed the training period of a linear singular parabolic, achieved peak value (985.2 μg/L) at about 14 d. TPO had not been detected in nutrient solution. The Tg expressed positively by immunization fluorescent dyeing. ConclusionsPTC cells cultured in the present method can survive to over 45 days. A brief monitoring and evaluation systems of PTC cells has been established. This report prompts that cultured cells within 14 days maybe more suitable to gene research and provide alternative to the basic research of PTC events and features.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the implementability of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) guidelines in the field of paediatrics. MethodsWe searched the paediatrics-related TCM guidelines published in CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, SinoMed and PubMed databases, and related websites from inception to November 1, 2023. The implementability of the included guidelines was evaluated using the clinical practice guideline implementability assessment tool. ResultsA total of 47 guidelines were included, covering 37 paediatric diseases and recommending 27 TCM therapies, including TCM decoction, Chinese patent medicines, acupuncture, paediatric massage, and acupoints. The results of the guideline accessibility evaluation showed that, in terms of the overall quality of accessibility, 5 guidelines (10.6%) were of high grade, 12 guidelines (25.5%) were of medium grade, and 30 guidelines (63.8%) were of low grade. With the exception of accessibility (multi-channel access methods) and communicability, which was of high quality, there is room for improvement in all areas, particularly in the areas of applicability and ease of recognition. ConclusionThe overall quality of implementability of the included paediatric TCM guidelines was low, and it is recommended that in the process of developing paediatric TCM guidelines in the future, we focus on improving the quality of implementability of the guidelines themselves from the source, so as to promote the implementation and application of the guidelines.
