基于雨课堂的临床流行病学教学改革与实践

目的探讨雨课堂在临床流行病学教学中的作用和效果。方法采用随机对照法在本科阶段无流行病学学习经历的临床专业硕士研究生中,使用雨课堂线上课前预习及课后随堂练习的功能,用于评价雨课堂线上功能的辅助教学效果。结果应用雨课堂线上功能干预组与对照组在基线、阶段小测和末考卷面成绩均无统计学差异;但对于主动学习,雨课堂参与度较高的学生成绩提高明显。结论雨课堂有利于理论性较强课程的学习,但是仍不能忽略课堂教学师生互动过程。     

VAC结合游离植皮治疗儿童大面积皮肤缺损疗效观察及对患儿生活质量的影响

目的:探讨负压创面治疗技术(Vacuum assisted closure,VAC)结合游离植皮治疗儿童大面积皮肤缺损疗效及对患儿生活质量的影响。方法:选取2015年2月-2019年2月笔者医院收治的60例大面积皮肤缺损患儿作为研究对象,按照随机数表法分为干预组和对照组,每组30例。对照组采用游离植皮术治疗,干预组在对照组的基础上结合VAC治疗,以皮片成活时间、皮片成活率、换药次数及住院天数评估疗效,以长海痛尺分级法评估患儿疼痛等级,以抑郁自评量表(Self-rating depression scale,SDS)、焦虑自评量表(Self-rating anxiety scale,SAS)评估患儿心理状态,以术后不良反应发生率评估患儿预后情况,以自制生活质量表评估患儿生活质量水平。结果:干预组患儿皮片成活时间、换药次数与住院天数均小于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。干预组患儿皮片成活率为93.33%高于对照组的76.67%,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。干预组治疗后疼痛感、SDS与SAS评分低于治疗前,且低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。干预组患儿术后不良反应发生率为6.67%显著低于对照组23.33%,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。两组治疗前活动能力、心理健康及社交能力均低于治疗后,干预组治疗后活动能力、心理健康及社交能力均高于对照组(P<0.05)。结论:VAC结合游离植皮治疗儿童大面积皮肤缺损疗效显著,能有效降低患儿生理疼痛与心理焦虑,减少伤口感染等不良反应的发生,提高患儿生活质量,具有推广价值。     

Neonatal weight loss and gain patterns in caesarean section born infants: integrative systematic review

There is evidence that caesarean section delivery can impact on neonatal weight loss and weight gain patterns in the first 5 days of life. We conducted an integrative systematic review to examine the association of mode of delivery on early neonatal weight loss. Pubmed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Web of Science, Excerpta Medica dataBASE, and Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online were searched for relevant papers published before June 2019. Reference lists from the relevant papers were then backwards and forwards searched. As neonatal weight loss was reported in different formats, a meta‐analysis could not be carried out. Most studies did not distinguish between elective and emergency caesarean sections or instrumental and nonassisted vaginal deliveries. Seven papers were included. All papers except one found that caesarean section was associated with higher weight loss in the early days of life. Two papers presented data from studies on babies followed up to 1 month. One study found that on day 25, babies born by caesarean section had significantly higher weight gain than those born vaginally, while another found that by day 28, babies born vaginally gained more weight per day (11.9 g/kg/day) than those born by caesarean section (10.9 g/kg/day; p = .02). Overall, infants born by caesarean section lost more weight than those born vaginally, but due to the small number of studies included, more are needed to look at this difference and why it may occur. This discrepancy in weight between the two groups may be corrected over time, but future studies will need larger sample sizes and longer follow‐up periods to examine this.     

Is routine extubation overnight safe in cardiac surgery patients?

Objectives

Expedient extubation after cardiac surgery has been associated with improved outcomes, leading to postoperative extubation frequently during overnight hours. However, recent evidence in a mixed medical-surgical intensive care unit population demonstrated worse outcomes with overnight extubation. This study investigated the impact of overnight extubation in a statewide, multicenter Society of Thoracic Surgeons database.

Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in an adolescent with near‐total hair regrowth: Case report and review of the literature

Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp (EPDS) is an uncommon chronic inflammatory response to scalp trauma that usually resolves with cicatricial alopecia. It most commonly affects elderly patients with a history of actinic damage. Herein, we describe a 16‐year‐old girl with acrofacial dysostosis type 1 presenting after surgery with crusting purulent scalp lesions, whose clinical presentation and histopathologic findings were consistent with EPDS. A review of the literature on EPDS in children is also detailed.     

黄热病的再流行与世界卫生组织的消除黄热病流行战略

近年来,蚊虫传播的黄热病在非洲和南美洲地区大面积“再流行”,仅南美洲的巴西在一年时间就发现数千例黄热病确诊病例,黄热病已经在非洲和南美洲地区造成巨大的公共卫生负担。此外,在黄热病非流行国家和地区发现大量输入性病例,使得黄热病有可能在非洲和南美洲以外的地区成为“新发传染病”而在世界更大范围流行。为此,世界卫生组织制定了“消除黄热病流行（EYE）”战略,预计利用10年时间在黄热病流行地区接种13.8亿剂量黄热疫苗,以降低黄热病对国际公共卫生健康的危害。     

Toxic tau: structural origins of tau aggregation in Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by the extracellular accumulation of the amyloidβin the form of amyloid plaques and the intracellular deposition of the microtubule-associated protein tau in the form of neurofibrillary tangles.Most of the Alzheimer’s drugs targeting amyloidβhave been failed in clinical trials.Particularly,tau pathology connects greatly in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease.Tau protein enhances the stabilization of microtubules that leads to the appropriate function of the neuron.Changes in the quantity or the conformation of tau protein could affect its function as a microtubules stabilizer and some of the processes wherein it is involved.The molecular mechanisms leading to the accumulation of tau are principally signified by numerous posttranslational modifications that change its conformation and structural state.Therefore,aberrant phosphorylation,as well as truncation of tau protein,has come into focus as significant mechanisms that make tau protein in a pathological entity.Furthermore,the shape-shifting nature of tau advocates to comprehend the progression of Alzheimer’s disease precisely.In this review,we emphasize the recent studies about the toxic and shape-shifting nature of tau in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease.
