Cataract is a lens metabolism disease, which is caused by various factors, and leads to metamorphic lens proteins turbidity. Cataract commonly occurs in elderly patients, and majority of these patients have clinical manifestations of blurred vision and other symptoms. In this study, we explored the clinical practice and observations of cataract care criteria in nonophthalmic wards. To realize this, a total of one hundred and twenty (120) cataract patients, admitted to the East Department of Ophthalmology, Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital, particularly from April 2019-2020, were divided into the control and observation groups, where 60 cases were added to each group. The control group received routine nursing, and observation group was treated with cataract care criteria based on the control group. The complication rate, health cognition, and patient’s satisfaction were compared with existing approaches. The incidence of corneal edema, anterior chamber hemorrhage, endophthalmitis, and incision infection, specifically in the observation group, was lower than that in the control group ( P < 0.05 ). Likewise, the number of hospitalization days and expenses, specifically in the observation group, were lower than those in the control group ( P < 0.05 ). Health knowledge and satisfaction scores of the observation group were higher than the control group ( P < 0.05 ). Active service, service attitude, psychological support, caring patients, and health education dissatisfaction rate of the observation group were lower than the control group ( P < 0.05 ). Finally, the standard of cataract care in nonophthalmic wards reduces the incidence of complications, improve health awareness of patients, and help to improve satisfaction of patients with nurses. Furthermore, it is worthy of promotion and application particularly in traditional hospitals.

Autoantibody Profiles

ObjectiveMany autoantibodies are known to be associated with SLE, although their role in clinical practice is limited because of low sensitivity and weak associations with clinical manifestations. There has been great interest in the discovery of new autoantibodies to use in clinical practice. In this study, we investigated 57 new and known antibodies and their potential for diagnostics or risk stratification.MethodsBetween 2014 and 2017, residual sera of all anti-dsDNA tests in the UMC Utrecht were stored in a biobank. This included sera of patients with SLE, patients with a diagnosis of another immune-mediated inflammatory disease (IMID), patients with low (non-IMID) or medium levels of clinical suspicion of SLE but no IMID diagnosis (Rest), and self-reported healthy blood bank donors. Diagnosis and (presence of) symptoms at each blood draw were retrospectively assessed in the patient records with the Utrecht Patient-Oriented Database using a newly developed text mining algorithm. Sera of patients were analysed for the presence of 57 autoantibodies with a custom-made immunofluorescent microarray. Signal intensity cut-offs for all antigens on the microarray were set to the 95th percentile of the non-IMID control group. Differences in prevalence of autoantibodies between patients with SLE and control groups were assessed.ResultsAutoantibody profiles of 483 patients with SLE were compared with autoantibody profiles of 1397 patients from 4 different control groups. Anti-dsDNA was the most distinguishing feature between patients with SLE and other patients, followed by antibodies against Cytosine-phosphate-Guanine (anti-CpG) DNA motifs (p<0.0001). Antibodies against CMV (cytomegalovirus) and ASCA (anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies) were more prevalent in patients with SLE with (a history of) lupus nephritis than patients with SLE without nephritis.ConclusionAntibodies against CpG DNA motifs are prevalent in patients with SLE. Anti-CMV antibodies are associated with lupus nephritis.

Objective: This study is to assess the application value of information-based health education and continuity of care in patients with PU (peptic ulcer).Methods: Patients (116) with PU who have been treated in the hospital between January 2019 and October 2020 were taken as research objects and equally assigned to a control group and an observation group in a random manner. In contrast to the routine care applied to the control group, the observation group received information-based health education and continuity of care intervention. The clinical efficacy, the mastery of health knowledge, self-care ability, medication compliance, quality of life, mental state, and nursing satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Results: After the intervention, the total effective rate, health knowledge adequate rate, Exercise of Self-Care Agency (ESCA) scores of all dimensions, the MOS 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36) scores of all dimensions, medication compliance rate, and total nursing satisfaction of the observation group all notably exceeded those of the control group, with a p &lt; 0.05. Patients of the group with continuity of care intervention showed lower Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores, as compared to the group with conventional care (p &lt; 0.05).Conclusion: Information-based health education and continuity of care elevates the medication adherence and nursing satisfaction of patients with PU, enhances disease-related knowledge of patients and their self-care ability, and eventually ameliorates the quality of life and psychological state. It is worthy of clinical application.

Ischemic Syndrome

Ocular ischemic syndrome (OIS) is a severe ocular disease caused by ocular hypoperfusion due to stenosis or occlusion of the common or internal carotid arteries. OIS is easily misdiagnosed or undiagnosed given its asymptomatic onset and complicated ocular manifestations. The present study reviewed 42 patients with OIS, including 30 males (71.43%), 29 older patients (69.05%, >61 yrs), and 35 patients (83.33%) with two or more systemic diseases. Only 6 patients had ocular symptoms as the initial signs upon visiting the Department of Ophthalmology of three hospitals (the First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University; Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University; and the Second Affiliated Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University). The ocular symptoms varied from visual deterioration to periorbital pain. Thirty-seven patients (88.10%) complained of constitutional symptoms. Ocular manifestations were diverse and involved both anterior and posterior segments. We reported a case of corneal edema and corneal epithelium erosion in the ipsilateral eye due to internal carotid artery stenosis. As the clinical manifestations of OIS are complex, ophthalmologists must carefully examine patients to avoid a misdiagnosis or a failure to diagnose. The management of OIS requires cooperation with cardiologists and neurologists.

Abstract Background: The incidence of colorectal cancer was increased in the liver transplant recipients and clinical practice of unsedated colonoscopy among the liver transplant recipients hasn't been fully studied. Our prospective and observational study was conducted in a tertiary hospital to investigate the clinical practice of unsedated colonoscopy among the liver transplant recipients. Methods: Between June 2017 and June 2018, clinical data of the 72 liver transplant recipients received the screening colonoscopy conducted by a same endoscopists was collected. And a group of asymptomatic health examiner of same age and same gender was chosen as control group at a ratio of 1:3. Data of the colonoscopy performance, patient satisfaction and colonoscopy finding were compared between the two groups. Results: No difference was observed between the two groups in the bowel clearance ( P =0.273) , however, cecal intubation time was longer ( P =0.024) and the auxiliary abdominal compression by nurses was more frequent ( P ＜0.01) in liver transplantation group. In term of patient’s satisfaction, postprocedural visual analog scale, the willingness of repeat the same procedure and the four-point Likert scale (no pain, slight pain, moderate pain, severe pain) on the second day were comparable between the two groups. Compared with control group, the incidence of polyps was higher in the liver transplantation group (50.00% (36/72) vs37.04% (80/216), P =0.036), and the incidence of adenomatous polyps(33.33%vs 24.07%, P =0.084) and advanced polyps (11.11%vs 5.56%, P =0.094) were also higher in the liver transplantation group, but no statistical difference was observed. Conclusions: Liver transplantation mildly increases the difficulty of colonoscopy with experienced practitioners, although the patient’s satisfaction was comparable with the common people. Key words: colonoscopy, liver transplantation, visual analogue scale, polyps

AbstractObjectiveThis paper aims to explore specific effects of out-of-hospital continuing nursing on schizophrenia patients’ health rehabilitation and quality of life, and further improve application and popularization of out-of-hospital continuing nursing.MethodsThe 180 schizophrenia patients discharged from our hospital from March 2014 to March 2016 were selected as the subjects. The patients were divided into two groups according to the randomized double-blind method. Both groups received routine discharge guidance, and the observation group received out-of-hospital continuing nursing on this basis. Questionnaires and scales were used to compare differences of the two groups after discharge from hospital, such as medication compliance, recurrence rate of schizophrenia, awareness of health knowledge and quality of life.ResultsAfter 6 months of nursing for the observation group, complete medication compliance rate was 71.11% (64/90), awareness rate of schizophrenia-related health knowledge was 96.67% (87/90), and recurrence rate was 8.89% (8/90). For the control group, complete medication compliance rate was 45.56% (41/90), awareness rate of schizophrenia-related knowledge was 46.67% (42/90) and the recurrence rate of disease was 26.67% (24/90). Hence, the observation group enjoys significant advantages compared with the control group. Statistical analysis (P <0.05) showed statistical significance; In addition, life quality scores showed that the quality of life of the observation group was obviously better than the control group; the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).ConclusionOut-of-hospital continuing nursing for schizophrenia patients after discharge can effectively improve medication compliance, awareness rate of health knowledge, effectively reduce incidence of schizophrenia and improve the quality of life of patients. Thus, the nursing concept and related methods are worthy of publicity and application in a wider range.

Objective. To explore the effect of continuous nursing care based on the “information-motivation-behavioral skills model” (IMB) in the intervention of patients with aplastic anemia. Methods. A total of 90 patients with aplastic anemia who were admitted to our hospital from June 2019 to January 2021 were included in the study. The patients were divided into an observation group and a control group according to the random number table, with 45 patients in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the observation group received continuous nursing care based on IMB on the basis of the control group. Patients were followed up for 3 months, and their health knowledge was assessed with our self-made health knowledge rating scale. Patients’ medication compliance was assessed using the Morisky medication compliance questionnaire. The self-care ability was assessed with the self-made self-care ability scale in our hospital. The comprehensive quality of life assessment questionnaire (GQOLI-74) was used to assess the quality of life of patients. A self-prepared nursing satisfaction questionnaire was used to score patients’ nursing satisfaction. The total effective rate of nursing was evaluated. Results. The awareness scores of basic disease knowledge, medication knowledge, and daily self-care knowledge in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P  < 0.05). The scores of medication compliance in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P  < 0.05). The self-care abilities such as healthy diet, psychological adjustment, self-care skills, oral care, and perianal care in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P  < 0.05). The quality of life scores of patients in the two groups in the 3 months of nursing were higher than those when they were discharged from hospital ( P  < 0.05). The GQOLI-74 score of 3 months’ nursing care in the observation group was higher than that in the control group ( P  < 0.05). The nursing satisfaction degree of the observation group (97.78%) was higher than that of the control group (82.23%) ( P  < 0.05). The total effective rate of nursing care in the observation group (97.78%) was higher than that in the control group (77.78%) ( P  < 0.05). Conclusion. IMB-based continuous nursing care can significantly increase the awareness of health knowledge in patients with aplastic anemia, effectively improve medication compliance, significantly enhance self-care ability, and thus, improve the quality of life.
