Objective:To investigate the level and prognostic significance of RNF87 in human hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:Detected the expression of RNF87 in 98 HCC tissues by immunohistochemistry and Western Blot.According to the clinical data of the patients,we analyzed the relationship between RNF87 level and the prognosis of the HCC patients.Results:The level of RNF87 in HCC tissues is down-regulated,compared with the adjacent tissues.And the expression of RNF87 was significantly related to the prognosis of HCC patients.Besides,the lower level of RNF87 was also obviously related with microvascular invasion.Conclusions:The down-regulated level of RNF87 may be one of the risk factors of human hepatocellular carcinoma progression;RNF87 maybe one of potential tumor suppressors;the level of RNF87 can be used as an indicator to predict the prognosis of HCC patients.

Objective:To explore the relationships among workplace bullying,resilience and work perform-ance in nurses,employing a moderation and matching analysis perspective.Methods:A total of 3 026 nurses from 4 tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province were recruited.The Negative Acts Questionnaire Revised,Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-10item,and Work Performance Scale were used to evaluate workplace bullying,psychological re-silience and work performance.Moderation analysis and response surface analysis were used to investigate the rela-tionships among workplace bullying,psychological resilience and work performance in nurses.Results:The results of the moderation effect analysis indicated that psychological resilience could moderate the negative relationship be-tween workplace bullying and work performance(β=0.07,95％CI:0.03-0.10).Response surface analysis re-vealed that compared to nurses with low bullying-low resilience,nurses with high bullying-high resilience showed higher work performance(Z-hat difference=2.06;95％CI=0.48-3.58).Nurses with high bullying-low resili-ence exhibited lower work performance compared to those with low bullying-high resilience(Z-hat difference=-8.31;95％CI=-12.06--5.68).Conclusion:Psychological resilience plays a moderating role in the negative effects of workplace bullying on job performance of nurses,and there are relative differences in work performance between individuals with different levels of workplace bullying and psychological resilience.

Objective:To examine the burden of caregivers for elderly Parkinson's patients(PD)and to analyze the mediating effects of social support on primary PD caregivers' burden and their quality of life.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 281 primary caregivers for elderly Parkinson's patients who visited the Department of Neurology's outpatient clinics of Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January to May 2021 were surveyed via a convenience sampling method, with 242 valid questionnaires(86.1%). The Chinese versions of the Caregiver Burden Questionnaire, Social Support Rating Scale and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey were used for the investigation.Pearson correlation analysis was used to establish a structural equation model for the influence of social support in the burden and quality of life of caregivers for PD patients.The mediating effects were tested using Process v2.16.3 and re-tested using AMOS.The mediating effects were validated with Bootstrap.Results:Primary caregivers' scores on burden, social support and quality of life were(26.9±23.1), (40.5±8.7)and(593.7±163.3), respectively.Caregiver burden was negatively correlated with social support(r=-0.482, P<0.01), and social support was positively correlated with quality of life(r=0.513, P<0.01). Caregiver burden was negatively correlated with quality of life( r=-0.654, P<0.01), The validated mediating effects showed caregiver burden's direct effects on quality of life(95% CI: -0.38-0.61)and mediating effects of social support(95% CI: -0.08-0.21), not including 0, indicating that the care burden of primary caregivers for elderly PD patients was not only able to predict their quality of life, but also predict their quality of life through the mediating effects of social support(direct effect: -0.50 and mediating effect: -0.14, accounting for 78.0% and 22.0%, respectively, of the total effect of -0.64). Conclusions:Care burden and social support are important factors affecting the quality of life of primary caregivers for elderly PD patients.Reducing care burden can not only directly affect the quality of life, but also indirectly affect the quality of life by increasing social support.

Objective:To explore the effect of physical activity trajectories on cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults.Methods:Based on data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) from 2011 to 2020, 809 participants aged ≥45 were selected. General data, physical activity levels, and cognitive function were collected. The group-based trajectory model (GBTM) was used to establish the physical activity trajectory model, and multiple linear regression was applied to investigate factors affecting cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults and to analyze the relationship between physical activity trajectories and cognitive function.Results:The cognitive function score for the 809 middle-aged and older adults was (11.71±4.60), and the logarithmic metabolic equivalent of physical activity was (8.38±1.06). Based on GBTM, four physical activity trajectories were identified: stable group, slow-increase group, rapid-decrease group, and stable-decrease group. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the stable and slow-increase activity trajectories, gender, age, marital status, and retirement status were significant factors influencing cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:Physical activity trajectories are associated with cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults. Maintaining stable or slowly increasing physical activity is beneficial for cognitive health. Nurses should design targeted interventions based on factors influencing cognitive function.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the expression of GLI1 and im-mune invasion and clinical prognosis in gastric cancer.To study the effect of GLI1 expression on drug resistance in gastric cancer.Methods:The expression difference of GLI1 in gastric cancer and normal tissues was analyzed by using TCGA database,and the effect of clinical features and GLI1 gene ex-pression level on prognosis of patients with gastric cancer was analyzed.The correlation between GLI1 gene expression and tumor immune cell infiltration in gastric cancer tissues was analyzed to explore its influence on drug resistance of chemotherapy drugs and targeted drugs.Clinical samples were collect-ed to analyze the difference of GLI1 expression in gastric cancer and paracancer tissues.Results:The expression of GLI1 in gastric cancer tissues was 1.7 times that in normal tissues,and the overall sur-vival and disease-free survival of patients with high expression are shorter than those with low ex-pression(P＜0.05).The interstitial score,immune score and abundance of immunoinfiltrating cells were higher in the high expression of GLI1 in gastric cancer tissues.High expression of GLI1 reduces drug sensitivity and is positively correlated with the expression of immune checkpoint markers PDCD1(P＜0.05).GLI1 expression was significantly increased in patients with subdifferentiated gastric cancer.Conclusions:GLI1 expression is associated with the prognosis and immune infiltration of patients with gastric cancer,and it may lead to poor prognosis of patients by regulating chemotherapy resis-tance,which may be a potential therapeutic target and molecular marker for gastric cancer.

Objective:To analyze the overall situation and existing problems of the scientific and technological innovation capacity of hospitals in Shandong Province, propose strategies for the construction of first-class medical disciplines in hospitals, promote the transformation of medical science and technology achievements into clinical application, and provide a reference basis for building a highland of health scientific and technological innovation.Methods:Science and Technology Evaluation Metrics (STEM) data of hospitals in Shandong Province in 2020 were obtained by network research method, and the scientific and technological innovation capacity and sustainability of hospitals and disciplines were analyzed by statistical description method, assignment method, and NetDraw visualization tool.Results:The number of national top 100 hospitals and disciplines in Shandong Province ranks seventh and sixth in China, respectively. Only three hospitals in Shandong Province are among the national top 50, covering 80.6% of provincial top-ranked disciplines, while 41.6% of the national top 100 disciplines in Shandong Province are ranked after the top 50 in their respective discipline lists. The hospital scientific and technological innovation capacity of Shandong Province is at the middle-upper level with few and uneven distributions of first-class hospitals and disciplines, leading to a relatively weak overall science and technology impact.Conclusions:Given the current situation in Shandong Province, it is suggested that hospitals should take STEM as a guide to strengthen the construction of scientific research environments, vigorously develop clinical research, continuous strengthen discipline construction, and emphasize scientific innovative talent training and research integrity education, providing a science and technology strategic support for the acceleration of the medical scientific and technologic innovation and the promotion of high-level innovative province construction.

Objective:To discuss the feasibility of using online and offline combined multidisciplinary team (MDT) diagnosis-treatment mode in cancers diagnosis and treatment by comparing the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plans formulated by online and offline MDT diagnosis-treatment mode.Methods:A total of 168 esophageal cancer patients collected from March 17, 2020 to May 17, 2020 were took as the research objects in Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute, through whom the consistency of the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plans formulated by online and offline MDT diagnosis-treatment mode was evaluated. The clinical characteristics of patients with changed comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plans, such as age, Karnofsky performance status (KPS) score, whether combined with basic diseases, whether received anti-tumor treatment before and tumor location were analyzed, so as to explore the mechanism to improve the efficiency on the basis of quality assurance.Results:The results showed that 86.3% (145/168) of the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plans obtained by offline MDT diagnosis-treatment mode were consistent with online diagnosis-treatment MDT mode. Cases with inconsistent comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plans were characterized by elderly (> 69 years) ( χ2=4.250, P=0.039), KPS score≥80 ( χ2=15.520, P<0.001) and combined with underlying disease ( χ2=7.135, P=0.008). Through further analysis, the changed cases were also characterized as with inadequate auxiliary examination or complex in imaging. Conclusion:The online and offline combined MDT diagnosis-treatment mode is feasible. For the patients characterized of elderly (> 69 years old), KPS score ≥80, combined with underlying diseases, with incomplete auxiliary examination or complex in imaging, the offline MDT diagnosis-treatment mode should be adopted or supplemented.

Objective To establish the norm of Sub-Health Measurement Scale for nurses in Shandong Province,so as to provide a basis for understanding the current situation of sub-health and provide a reference for promoting the health of nurses.Methods From December 2020 to February 2023,14,308 nurses from 23 public tertiary hospitals enrolled in the Nurse Health Cohort Study in Shandong Province were selected as participants by convenience sampling.The sub-health status was assessed by the Sub-Health Measurement Scale,and the sub-health norm of nurses was constructed by establishing the mean,percentile and demarcation norm.Results A total of 10669 nurses were included in the analysis.The total score of Sub-Health Measurement Scale of nurses in Shandong Province was(61.13±12.40),and the scores of physiological sub-health sub-scale,psychological sub-health sub-scale and social sub-health sub-scale were(58.35±11.86),(62.56±15.85)and(63.56±16.73),respectively.The mean norm of sub-health assessment scale was established by gender and age.Based on the results of univariate analysis,we selected the characteristics with differences,namely gender,age,marital status,working department,years of working,professional title and employment type to establish a classification norm.P5,P25,P50,P75 and P95 were select to establish percentile norm.Taking(x-s),(x-0.5s),(x+0.5s),(x+s)as the cut-off points,the demarcation norm of the Sub-Health Measurement Scale and sub-scales was established,which was divided into 5 categories,including disease,severe sub-health,moderate sub-health,mild sub-health and healthy states.Conclusion This study established the Sub-Health Measurement Scale norm of nurses,which provided a basis for effectively evaluating and identifying the sub-health status of nurses.
