非程控降温,—80℃冻存自体外周血干细胞的研究

目的：观察非程控降温、－80℃冻存的方法对自体外周血十细胞（APBSC）的保存效果。方法：以6％羟乙基淀粉（HES）、5％二甲基亚砜（DMSO）及4％人血白蛋白（ALB）的混合物为冷冻防护剂，将APBSC直接置于－80℃下保存，冻存前反复苏后测定APBSC的CFU－GM、BFU－E；观察移植后造血功能重建情况。结果：13例患者白细胞在十3～＋7天下降至（0．0～0．1）×10／L，白细胞（0．0～0．2）×109／L持续时间3～6天，于＋9～＋11天恢复至1．0X109／L以上．中性粒细胞绝对值（ANC）于＋9～＋11天达到0．5X109／L。血小板在＋3～＋7天下降至（2．0～21）×109／L，于＋8～＋15天恢复至20×109／L以上。CFU－GM、BFU－E回大率分别为76．5％、78．4％。结论：非程控降温、－80℃冻存是一简便、经济、有效的自体外周血于细胞保存方法。     

Isolation of pathogenic bacteria from hospital staff apparel in Nigeria

A survey of bacteria contamination of hospital staff apparel in use in Anambra State, Nigeria, was carried out to determine the extent of contamination by clinically important bacteria. Of a total of 125 swab samples of hospital staff apparel, 72 (58%) showed bacterial contamination including 32 (70%) of 46 samples from hand gloves, 28 of 45 (62%) samples from protective gowns, and 12 of 34 (35%) samples from face-shields. The potentially pathogenic bacteria isolated were Salmonella spp, Proteus vulgaris, Shigella dysenteriae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. The isolation of clinically important bacteria from the apparel suggests the need for improved infection control measures.     

大鼠急性肺栓塞后SMP-30表达下降及其对细胞凋亡的影响

目的：研究大鼠急性肺栓塞模型肺组织中衰老标记蛋白质30(SMP-30)的表达变化及其对Fas诱导的细胞凋亡的影响。方法:建立大鼠急性肺栓塞模型，分别在急性肺栓塞后1、8、24和48 h进行支气管肺泡灌洗，然后开胸取出肺组织。常规提取肺组织的总RNA和总蛋白，以正常组为对照，采取半定量RT-PCR的方法研究SMP-30在mRNA水平表达的变化；采用Western blotting方法进一步验证SMP-30在蛋白水平表达的变化；采用免疫组织化学方法检测大鼠肺组织中SMP-30以及肺泡巨噬细胞中IL-8在肺栓塞前后表达的变化及其组织分布情况；采用TUNEL法研究急性肺栓塞后组织细胞的凋亡情况；最后采用ELISA法检测急性肺栓塞后肺泡灌洗液中sFasL的浓度变化。结果:在大鼠急性肺栓塞后的不同时点，SMP-30的mRNA水平和蛋白水平均逐渐降低，在24和48 h下降最为明显。免疫组化研究表明SMP-30主要分布在支气管黏膜上皮细胞和肺泡上皮细胞，急性肺栓塞后SMP-30在上述细胞内的表达均明显降低。TUNEL染色发现随着SMP-30表达的降低，肺组织内出现明显的细胞凋亡现象，同时肺泡灌洗液中sFasL的浓度升高，肺泡巨噬细胞内IL-8的表达也明显升高。结论:大鼠急性肺栓塞后肺组织内SMP-30的表达明显降低，可能促进Fas－FasL细胞凋亡系统的活化。     

白细胞介素4剪接变异体在哮喘患者中的表达

目的检测哮喘患者外周血中IL-4及其变异体IL-4δ2的表达,探讨其在哮喘发病机制中的作用。方法采用半定量RT-PCR技术,检测10例哮喘患者IL-4及其变异体的表达,并与正常健康人群进行比较。结果哮喘患者IL-4表达较健康人群高,而且IL-4和IL-4δ2的比值远远高于健康人。结论IL-4和IL-4δ2表达的相对性可能在哮喘发病机制中具有重要作用,其可能是Th2细胞在不同临床疾病中功能多样性的原因之一。     

An exploration of nurse-physician perceptions of collaborative behaviour

Interprofessional collaboration is a key element in providing safe, holistic patient care in the acute care setting. Trended data at a community hospital indicated opportunities for improvement in collaboration on micro, meso, and macro levels. The aim of this survey study was to assess the current state of collaboration between frontline nurses and physicians at a non-academic acute care hospital. A convenience sample of participants was recruited with a final respondent sample of 355 nurses and 82 physicians. The results indicated that physicians generally perceived greater collaboration than nurses. Physician ratings did not vary by primary practice area, whereas nurse ratings varied by clinical practice area. Nurse ratings were the lowest in the operating room and the highest in the emergency department. Text-based responses to an open-ended question were analysed by role and coded by two independent research teams. Emergent themes emphasised the importance of rounding, roles, respect, and communication. Despite recognition of the need for improved collaboration and relational behaviours, strategies to improve collaborative practice must be fostered at the meso level by organisational leaders and customised to address micro-level values. At the study site, findings have been used to address and improve collaboration towards the goal of becoming a high reliability organisation.
