RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the effect of hospital-community-family trinity linkage home visiting on quality of life of convalescent patients with traumatic brain injury.Methods:A total of 100 convalescence patients with traumatic brain injury admitted to Shanghai Yangzhi Rehabilitation Hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as the research objects, and randomly divided into the intervention group ( n=51) and the control group ( n=49) by random number table method. The control group received routine rehabilitation nursing guidance. Patients in the intervention group were treated with hospital-community-family triple linkage family visit for nursing intervention for 10 months. The Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form (SF-36), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and Exercise of Self Care Agency Scale (ESCA) were used to compare the quality of life of 2 groups before intervention, 1, 4, 6, 8 and 10 months after intervention. Results:After 6 months of the intervention, eight dimensions of SF-36 such as physiological function, role-physical, body pain, general health, vitality, social function, role-emotional, and mental health scored 29.61 ± 9.21, 38.73 ± 14.42, 41.96 ± 8.25, 38.63 ± 8.43, 50.10 ± 8.03, 42.40 ± 18.28, 43.14 ± 15.34, 38.31 ± 8.88 in the intervention group, and 35.92 ± 8.02, 52.04 ± 14.29, 50.00 ± 11.90, 47.76 ± 9.08, 56.12 ± 7.66, 56.99 ± 19.40, 55.10 ± 16.03, 44.96 ± 7.73 in the control group. The difference between two groups showed significant difference ( t values were -5.21--3.81, all P<0.05). The GSES scores and ESCA scores after 1,4,6,8,10 months of the intervention showed an distinct advantage in the intervention group than the control group ( t values were -20.99-11.55, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The hospital-community-family trinity linkage home visiting could improve the quality of life, self-efficacy, and self-care ability of patients with traumatic brain injury, and promote their rehabilitation effect when they returned to family and society.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the experience and true feeling of home care aides during nighttime caring at the first beginning stage of this program, find the difficulty of it and provide constructive suggestions for improvement.Methods:Semi-structed interviews were used to collect the data of 16 home care aides who were taking part in nighttime caring. Colaizzi phenomenological analysis was used to process and analyze the data.Results:Three themes were extracted by classifying and analyzing the details of the interview: the service content of nighttime care was easy, but had many constraint conditions; the caregivers had diversified emotional experience during nighttime care; the elderly would like to enjoy nighttime care, but they were unwilling to pay by themselves.Conclusions:Nighttime caring project deepens the service content of home-based care. But the nighttime care project needs to be standardized. We should establish risk prevention measures to guarantee the benefit and security of both home caregivers and care-receivers, changing the opinions of consumption among the elderly, increasing the amount of subsidy to enlarge the expansion of nighttime care and improve the equality of this caring program.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of hospital-community-family transitional rehabilitation care model on patients with brain trauma and explore an economic, effective, all-sided rehabilitation approach.Methods:A total of 82 in-patients with brain trauma were recruited from January 2018 to June 2019 in Shanghai Yang Zhi Rehabilitation Hospital (Shanghai Sunshine Rehabilitation Center). The participants were allocated into 2 groups based on randomized digital tables. Forty patients in the observation group received the hospital-community-family transitional rehabilitation care, and forty-two patients in the control group received routine rehabilitation care. All the participants completed assessments with the Fugl-Meyer Assessment Scale (FMA), the Barthel Index for the Activities of Daily Living (BI) and the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) before the intervention, at discharge, 1 month, 4 months, 6 months and 10 months after discharge, respectively.Results:Before the intervention, no statistical significance was identified in the total scores of FMA, BI and HAMA between the two groups ( P>0.05). Compared to the control group, the total scores of FMA, BI and HAMA in the observation group were significantly improved at the discharge, 1 month, 4 months, 6 months and 10 months after discharge, respectively ( t values were -13.82 - 10.28, all P<0.05). Significant differences were observed in the level of FMA, BI and HAMA between the two groups across 6 time points ( Ftime×group=20.34, 18.34, 19.55, Ftime=183.24, 184.30, 179.09, Fgroup=28.86, 32.19, 26.63, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The hospital-community-family transitional rehabilitation care model which is based on medical consortium effectively improved traumatic brain-injured patients′motor function, the level of activities of daily living, and patients′anxiety. In addition, the model also improved the quality of medical services.

Objective:To explore the application effects of the Doctor-nurse-therapist integrated Model on the patients with brain injury in the rehabilitation period.Methods:A total of 60 patients with brain injury from January 2016 to October 2017 were selected as the control group underwent interventions based on traditional treatment model involving medical treatment, nursing and rehabilitation, and then 56 patients with brain injury from January 2018 to October 2019 were aselected as the experimental group followed Doctor-Nurse-Therapist integrated model for rehabilitation treatment. All subjects were recruited from inpatients hospitalized in the Forth Department of Neurological Rehabilitation, Shanghai Yangzhi Rehabilitation Hospital (Shanghai Sunshine Rehabilitation Center). The differences of motor function, activities of daily life (ADLs), anxiety and depression scores between the two groups were compared.Results:After 6 weeks of interventions, the scores of motor function were 80.27±18.20 and 67.32±19.71, and ADLs scores were 73.14±19.18 and 64.59±20.33 for the experimental group and the control group, respectively. The differences of the motor function and ADLs scores showed statistical significance between the experimental group and the control group ( t values were 3.491, 2.105, P<0.05). The anxiety and depression scores were 44.68±12.29 and 42.61±17.95 in the experimental group, while 52.25±12.95 and 50.84±18.14 in the control group, respectively. Statistical significance was found according to differences of anxiety and depression scores between the experimental group and the control group ( t values were 2.965,-2.236, P<0.05). Conclusions:Under the integrated model, doctors, nurses and therapists can evaluate, discuss, formulate and implement the flow scheme of the model, which can significantly improve the motor function and daily life ability of patients with brain injury in the rehabilitation period as well as anxiety, depression and the quality of medical services, and reduce the burden of family and society.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To study the value of plasma miRNA23-a and miRNA-451 as potential biomarkers for early diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).@*METHODS@#Fifty patients with NSCLC and 50 healthy control subjects were recruited for testing the plasma levels of miRNA23-a and miRNA-451 and their expression levels in the tumor tissues using qRT-PCR. The correlations of the plasma levels of miRNA23-a and miRNA-451 with their expressions in the tumor tissues were analyzed. The diagnostic power of CEA, miRNA23-a and miRNA-451 for NSCLC was evaluated using the receiver-operating characteristics (ROC) curves and the area under the ROC curves (AUC). In the NSCLC cell line A549, we tested the effect of inhibition of miRNA-23a and miRNA-451 on the expression levels of SPRY2 and MIF mRNA using qRT-PCR.@*RESULTS@#The expression levels of miRNA-23a and miRNA-451 in NSCLC tissues was significantly associated with smoking, tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage ( < 0.05). Compared with those in the control group, miRNA-23a level was significantly increased while miRNA-451 was significantly down-regulated in the tumor tissues and plasma of NSCLC patients. The plasma levels of miRNA-23a and miRNA-45 were strongly correlated with their expression levels in the tumor tissues. ROC analysis showed that for the diagnosis of NSCLC, the AUC, sensitivity and specificity of either miRNA-23a or miRNA-451 were significantly higher than those of CEA ( < 0.05). The combination of miRNA23-a and miRNA-451 markedly improved the AUC (0.900), sensitivity (78%) and specificity (86%) for the diagnosis. In A549 cells, inhibition of miRNA23-a and miRNA-451 resulted in significantly increased expression levels of SPRY2 mRNA and MIF mRNA, respectively.@*CONCLUSIONS@#miRNA-23a and miRNA-451 can be used as potential biomarkers for early diagnosis of NSCLC, and their combined detection can be more effective for the diagnosis.

RESUMEN
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) causes significant yield loss in susceptible crops irrigated with contaminated water. However, detection of TMV in water is difficult owing to extremely low concentrations of the virus. Here, we developed a simple method for the detection and quantiifcation of TMV in irrigation water. TMV was reliably detected at concentrations as low as 10 viral copies/μL with real-time PCR. The sensitivity of detection was further improved using polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000, MW 6000) to concentrate TMV from water samples. Among the 28 samples from Shaanxi Province examined with our method, 17 were tested positive after virus concentration. Infectivity of TMV in the original water sample as well as after concentration was conifrmed using PCR. The limiting concentration of TMV in water to re-infect plants was determined as 102 viral copies/mL. The method developed in this study offers a novel approach to detect TMV in irrigation water, and may provide an effective tool to control crop infection.
