The effect of personalized intervention on the cognitive function of elderly inpatients

目的  对住院老年患者进行早期认知功能护理干预，评价其效果。方法  2013年1月—2015年1月入院老年科病房的120名患者，运用MMSE量表对其认知功能进行评价，观察干预效果。结果  MMSE总分及MMSE量表中时间定向、短期记忆及插画条目干预后有改善（P＜0.05），地点定向、语言记忆、注意力、物品命名、语言复述、阅读能力、语言能力及语言表达条目改善不明显（P＞0.05）。 结论  个性化的认知干预能够延缓和改善患者认知功能障碍，提高老年患者的生活质量。Objectives: To assess the effect of the early cognitive function nursing intervention on the cognitive function of elderly inpatients. Methods: A total of 120 elderly inpatients in geriatrics ward were rolled from January 2013 to January 2015, and we evaluate the cognitive function of them and gave personalized intervention to them by MMSE scale. Results: The total score of MMSE was increased (P＜0.05); The entries of time orientation, short-term memory and illustration were improved significantly after three-month intervention (P＜0.05); The entries of place orientation, language, memory, attention, article name, repeat language, reading skills, language skills and language were not improved significantly. Conclusions:  Personalized cognitive intervention could improve the cognitive dysfunction and the quality of life of elderly patients

Most Lithium-rich Low-mass Evolved Stars Revealed as Red Clump stars by Asteroseismology and Spectroscopy

Lithium has confused scientists for decades at almost each scale of the universe. Lithium-rich giants are peculiar stars with lithium abundances over model prediction. A large fraction of lithium-rich low-mass evolved stars are traditionally supposed to be red giant branch (RGB) stars. Recent studies, however, report that red clump (RC) stars are more frequent than RGB. Here, we present a uniquely large systematic study combining the direct asteroseismic analysis with the spectroscopy on the lithium-rich stars. The majority of lithium-rich stars are confirmed to be RCs, whereas RGBs are minor. We reveal that the distribution of lithium-rich RGBs steeply decline with the increasing lithium abundance, showing an upper limit around 2.6 dex, whereas the Li abundances of RCs extend to much higher values. We also find that the distributions of mass and nitrogen abundance are notably different between RC and RGB stars. These findings indicate that there is still unknown process that significantly affects surface chemical composition in low-mass stellar evolution.Comment: 27 pages, 10 figures, 3 table

Phylogenomic analyses provide insights into primate evolution

Comparative analysis of primate genomes within a phylogenetic context is essential for understanding the evolution of human genetic architecture and primate diversity. We present such a study of 50 primate species spanning 38 genera and 14 families, including 27 genomes first reported here, with many from previously less well represented groups, the New World monkeys and the Strepsirrhini. Our analyses reveal heterogeneous rates of genomic rearrangement and gene evolution across primate lineages. Thousands of genes under positive selection in different lineages play roles in the nervous, skeletal, and digestive systems and may have contributed to primate innovations and adaptations. Our study reveals that many key genomic innovations occurred in the Simiiformes ancestral node and may have had an impact on the adaptive radiation of the Simiiformes and human evolution

Convergence of Complex Fuzzy一valued Function Defined in Complex Fuzzy Number

The author defines all fuzzy number which are symmetric respect to y-axis as zero fuzzy number，on the basis，the author defines the limitation of complex fuzzy-valued function and discusses the properties of convergence. This eater obtains a series of results about limited complex fuzzy -valued function，including the limitation of complex fuzzy-valued function is unique，the limited complex fuzzy-valued function has local boundedness and local protection，as well as the linear operation properties of the limitation. Furthermore，the convergence criterion and the Cauchy convergence criterion of complex fuzzy-valued function are given. In this paper，it is shown that the complex fuzzy-valued function is defined in a complex fuzzy set F( C)which valued the complex fuzzy number in F( C)(set of all complex fuzzy number )

Localization of Four Allergens in Artemisia Pollen by Immunofluorescent Antibodies

Background: Artemisia pollens have a high potential to induce allergic symptoms. Seven allergen components have been identified, but only Art v 7 has been localized in the pollen grain. This study aimed to localize the allergens in the pollen grains of 4 >italic/italicbolditalic/italic/bolditalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicbolditalic/italic/bolditalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicitalic/italicbolditalic/italic/bold< Four mugwort allergens were localized in the pollen, and the major Art v 1 and Art v 3 allergens were located mainly in the pollen wall
