Nursing is an inseparable job with the healthy life of human beings. High-level nursing talents have a greater influence on patients. It is the future trend for schools to train Nursing Professional Degree Postgraduate, and the evaluation of their education quality is the top priority. ⋯ The top three indicators of third-level indicators are workplace (0.2385), matching degree between personal expectations and job opportunities (0.1272), and promotion opportunities (0.0795). The quality index system of nursing postgraduate education is scientific and reliable, and the weight distribution is reasonable. It is an effective tool for evaluating the quality of nursing graduate education.

Postpartum cerebral arterial dissections are rare, and the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment approaches are not clear to many physicians. This study was to investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of postpartum cerebral arterial dissections. One patient with postpartum cerebral arterial dissections enrolled in our hospital was analyzed. ⋯ The prognosis was complete recovery in 30 (86%) patients and mild focal neurological symptoms in 5 (14%). Postpartum cerebral arterial dissections are rare, and correct diagnosis relies on imaging examination. Prognosis is usually favorable in patients with early diagnosis and prompt treatment.

Effect of delayed palivizumab administration on respiratory syncytial virus infection-related hospitalisation: A retrospective, observational study.
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is an important cause of hospitalization in infants and young children. Monthly administration of palivizumab during the RSV season is effective in preventing severe infections in children with comorbidities. However, determining the onset of the RSV season for starting palivizumab is often challenging. ⋯ Children living with siblings and children with cyanosis originating from congenital heart disease had a higher risk of RSV with odds ratios of 5.1 (95% confidence interval 1.48-17.6, P < .01) and 3.3 (95% confidence interval 1.33-7.94, P < .01), respectively. Delays in administering palivizumab at the beginning of the season increases the rate of RSV infection-related hospitalization. To maximize prophylactic effectiveness, administering the first dose as early as possible in the RSV season is crucial, with priority for cyanotic children or those with siblings.

This article introduces our lasso loop technique (LLT) using a bioabsorbable thread for the treatment of intra-articular distal radius fractures with displaced dorsal bone fragment containing articular surface (DBF). We also examined whether the articular gap is sufficiently reduced and maintained by the LLT, along with the results of other radiological and clinical evaluations. We retrospectively reviewed 19 patients who underwent LLT for intra-articular distal radius fracture with a displaced DBF. ⋯ No significant complications due to LLT were observed. LLT appears to offer a simple and effective procedure to reduce displaced DBF with little risk of complications. LLT may become a useful option in the treatment of intra-articular distal radius fractures with displaced DBF.

Observational Study
Retrospective analysis and nursing management of inpatient falls: Case series.
Falls are common adverse events: approximately 1 million falls occur in hospitals annually, accounting for approximately 70% of inpatient accidents. ⋯ Enhancing awareness of factors that lead to inpatients falls may reduce the risk of concomitant injuries. Group standards should be established to prevent falls. In accordance with standards, it is necessary to consider health education and process supervision; it is also important to encourage inpatients to participate in safety management and to effectively ensure the safety of patients.
