华坪县2013-2015年健康人群麻疹抗体水平监测结果分析

目的了解华坪县健康人群麻疹抗体水平,发现工作薄弱地区和免疫空白人群,为实现消除麻疹的目标提供科学依据。方法采用分层抽样方法对华坪县8个乡镇不同年龄段健康人群开展麻疹抗体监测,采用间接酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA间接法)检测血清麻疹Ig G抗体。结果 2013-2015年共检测1 106人,麻疹抗体总阳性率96.47%。其中,阳性率较低的是2014年(93.13%),人群是8~17月龄组(89.22%)。尚有新庄乡(89.92%)、船房乡(93.98%),通达乡(94.86%)3个乡镇麻疹抗体阳性低于95%。有免疫史者人群阳性率较无免疫史者高(χ~2=5.1830,P=0.023),男女性别间无差异。结论华坪县人群麻疹免疫效果较好,但存在免疫薄弱地区和免疫空白人群,应结合该监测结果,加强重点乡镇麻疹疫苗两剂次接种工作和抗体阴性人群的重新免疫接种。     

Direct insertion of an ultra‐slim upper endoscope for cholangioscopy in patients undergoing choledochoduodenostomy

Direct peroral cholangioscopy (POC) using an ultra‐slim upper endoscope is one modality of POC for intraductal endoscopic evaluation and treatment of the bile duct. Choledochoduodenostomy (CDS) is one modality of biliary bypass surgery that provides a new route to the bile duct. We carried out direct POC using an ultra‐slim upper endoscope without the use of accessories in 10 patients (four sump syndromes, three bile duct strictures and three intrahepatic duct stones) previously undergoing surgical CDS. Direct POC was successful in all patients. The use of an intraductal balloon catheter was required in one patient for advancement of the endoscope into the bile duct. Distal bile ducts with sump syndromes were cleared using baskets and water irrigation under direct POC. Cholangiocarcinoma was diagnosed in one patient with hilar bile duct stricture after cholangioscopic evaluation and a targeting forceps biopsy under direct POC. Intrahepatic duct stones were successfully extracted after intraductal fragmentation under direct POC. Oozing bleeding occurred during intraductal lithotripsy but stopped spontaneously. Direct POC using an ultra‐slim upper endoscope without the assistance of accessories can easily be carried out in patients undergoing CDS.     

The relevance of Xenophon’s Anabasis and Plato’s Meno to nursing

The current situation in which the humanities are disparaged affects all university disciplines, including nursing, in whose historical evolution the humanities have always been present in one form or another. Looking beyond this disrepute, this study proposes that nursing renew its attention to classical philosophy. Specifically, it invites a close reading of Xenophon's Anabasis and Plato's Meno, to get three related goals: to show how the use of ancient texts are very valuable tools for the philosophical initiation of nursing students and can help them reflect on their choice of nursing as a practical activity; to reflect on the problem of virtue and the nature of the good life; and to show how the interaction with ancient texts allows students to reflect on questions and issues of life, theirs and others, that are not open to investigation through a purely scientific method. Consequently, both Anabasis and Meno readings strengthen the intellectual relationship between philosophy and nursing, enabling the latter to delve deeper into the key questions of its own thought as a discipline.
