An analysis of Chinese nursing electronic medical records to predict violence in psychiatric inpatients using text mining and machine learning techniques.

Background: The prevalence of violence in acute psychiatric wards is a critical concern. According to a meta-analysis investigating violence in psychiatric inpatient units, researchers estimated that approximately 17% of inpatients commit one or more acts of violence during their stay. Inpatient violence negatively affects health-care providers and patients and may contribute to high staff turnover.

[Multidisciplinary team model for patients with oral cancer and systemic diseases: an expert consensus].

Large general hospitals currently play an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and treatment for acute critical patients and difficult diseases because of the development of dual referral system and hierarchical diagnosis, as well as the formation of medical treatment alliance. Patients with oral cancers are often associated with systemic diseases, which increases the complexity of the condition. Thus, meeting the demand through the traditional single medical model is difficult.

Efficacy of concentrated growth factors combined with mineralized collagen on quality of life and bone reconstruction of guided bone regeneration.

To evaluate the clinical efficacy of concentrated growth factors (CGFs) combined with mineralized collagen (MC) in guided bone regeneration (GBR). A retrospective study involving 29 patients treated with GBR technique, which was performed either CGF and MC complexes or MC alone. Implants were inserted simultaneously and cone-beam computed tomography was taken immediately, at 3 and 6 months postoperation.

[Application of microvascular coupling device for arterial anastomosis in head and neck reconstruction].

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of microvascular coupler for arterial anastomosis in head and neck reconstruction during a 2-year period at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Shandong Provincial Hospital.

Methods: Twenty-one cases of microvascular free flaps from October 2013 through December 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Flap survival and thrombosis of the arterial anastomoses were determined in these cases.

Risk of sexually transmitted infections following depressive disorder: A nationwide population-based cohort study.

Depressive disorder is a severe mental disorder associated with functional and cognitive impairment. Numerous papers in the literature investigated associations between sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and psychiatric illnesses. However, the results of these studies are controversial.

[Effect of NaF on proliferation and mineralization of human periodontal ligament cells].

Purpose: To investigate the effect of NaF on proliferation and mineralization of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs).

Methods: hPDLCs were isolated and characterized. The proliferation of hPDLCs treated with different concentration of NaF was tested by CCK-8.

Benzyl isothiocyanate promotes apoptosis of oral cancer cells via an acute redox stress-mediated DNA damage response.

Benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) is a cruciferous vegetable-derived compound with anticancer properties in human cancer cells. However, its anticancer potential and underlying mechanisms remain absent in human oral cancer cells. Results indicate that BITC inhibits growth, promotes G/M phase arrest and triggers apoptosis of OC2 cells with a minimal toxicity to normal cells.

Enhanced Reduction of Graphene Oxide on Recyclable Cu Foils to Fabricate Graphene Films with Superior Thermal Conductivity.

Large-area freestanding graphene films are facilely fabricated by reducing graphene oxide films on recyclable Cu foils in H2-containing atmosphere at high temperature. Cu might act as efficient catalysts for considerably improved reduction of graphene oxide according to the SEM, EDS, XRD, XPS, Raman and TGA results. Comparing to the graphene films with ~30 μm thickness reduced without Cu substrate at 900 °C, the thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity of graphene films reduced on Cu foils are enhanced about 140% to 902 Wm(-1)K(-1) and 3.

One-Step Preparation of Silver Hexagonal Microsheets as Electrically Conductive Adhesive Fillers for Printed Electronics.

A facile one-step solution-phase chemical reduction method has been developed to synthesize Ag microsheets at room temperature. The morphology of Ag sheets is a regular hexagon more than 1 μm in size and about 200 nm in thickness. The hexagonal Ag microsheets possess a smoother and straighter surface compared with that of the commercial Ag micrometer-sized flakes prepared by ball milling for electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs).

[Study of the influence of nodal liquefaction in measurement of the ADC value of OSCC metastatic lymph nodes in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma].

Purpose: To study the influence of nodal liquefaction portion in the measurement of the ADC value of metastatic lymph nodes in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) on DW-MRI images.

Methods: According to the postoperative histopathological examination results, the DW-MRI data of 25 OSCC patients was analyzed. The ADC values of both solid portions of metastatic lymph nodes and the whole metastatic lymph nodes with internal liquefaction were selected and measured.

Phenethyl isothiocyanate induces DNA damage-associated G2/M arrest and subsequent apoptosis in oral cancer cells with varying p53 mutations.

Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) is a naturally occurring cruciferous vegetable-derived compound that inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis in oral cancer cells. However, the exact mechanism of PEITC action has not been fully elucidated. This study investigated the molecular mechanism and anticancer potential of PEITC in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells with various p53 statuses.

[Expression and clinical significance of p53 and autophagy-related gene Beclin1 in salivary pleomorphic adenoma and carcinoma in pleomorphic adenoma].

Purpose: To investigate the expression of p53 and Beclin1 in salivary pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and its clinical significance.

Methods: The expression of p53 and Beclin1 were assessed by immunohistochemistry in 108 cases of PA and 20 cases of carcinoma in pleomorphic adenoma(CIPA). The results were used to analyze the relationship between gene expressions and the development of PA as well as the clinical pathological features.

A web-based computerized adaptive testing (CAT) to assess patient perception in hospitalization.

Background: Many hospitals have adopted mobile nursing carts that can be easily rolled up to a patient's bedside to access charts and help nurses perform their rounds. However, few papers have reported data regarding the use of wireless computers on wheels (COW) at patients' bedsides to collect questionnaire-based information of their perception of hospitalization on discharge from the hospital.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative efficiency of computerized adaptive testing (CAT) and the precision of CAT-based measures of perceptions of hospitalized patients, as compared with those of nonadaptive testing (NAT).
