Objective We aimed to compare the critical thinking ability between clinical nurses and college nursing students at different grades so as to provide scientific references for reform in nursing education and nursing practice. Methods A total of 287 clinical nurses and 656 nurses in grade one and grade three underwent the investigation by adopting Chinese version of critical thinking disposition inventory (CTDI-CV). Results The total scores of CTDI-CV of nursing students in grade one, nursing students in grade three and clinical nurses were (292.82±26.41), (284.71±26.20) and (290.58±24.87). Statistical difference existed between these groups. The scores of open-mindedness, inquisitiveness and maturity of judgement of nursing students in grade one and grade three were higher than that of the clinical nurses, while the scores of systematicity and self-confidence of critical thinking were less than that of the clinical nurses. Conclusions The current nursing education system needs further reform. At the same time we should also promote the transform of modern clinical nursing model.

Objective:To explore the application effect of three mode pre-rehabilitation strategy in gastric cancer patients after laparoscopic radical operation and its effect on the recovery of physical function and quality of life after operation.Methods:Totally 96 patients undergoing elective laparoscopic-assisted radical gastric cancer surgery admitted in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2019 to September 2020 were divided into control group (48 cases) and observation group (48 cases) by the random number table. Finally two cases in control group were excluded. The control group received gastric cancer regular preoperative health guidance, the observation group received trimodal pre-habilitation strategy for 6-8 days on the basis of the control group. The perioperative indicators and complications were compared between the two groups. The 36-item Health Survey Summary (SF-36) scores were measured before and after intervention.Results:The first postoperative exhaust time, first out of bed time, first oral meal time, hospital stay in the observation group were (61.49 ± 6.71) hours, (19.54 ± 6.13) hours, (71.23 ± 6.79) days, (5.62 ± 1.03) days, which lower than (79.21 ± 8.15) hours, (22.95 ± 7.19) hours, (78.95 ± 7.21) days, (6.64 ± 1.17) days in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant between the two group ( t values were 2.48-11.53, all P<0.05). The incidence of complications was 6.25% (3/48) in the observation group and 21.74% (10/46) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant between the two groups ( χ2=8.72, P<0.05). At 1 d before operation and 30 d after operation, the average scores of SF-36 were (68.74 ± 8.02), (65.85 ± 7.44) points in the observation group and (60.73 ± 7.43), (61.04 ± 6.85) points in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=5.02, 3.26, both P<0.05). Conclusions:Preoperative three mode pre-rehabilitation training for gastric cancer patients is beneficial to improving the state of exercise, nutrition and immune function, speeding up postoperative gastrointestinal function and overall rehabilitation, reducing the incidence of postoperative complications and improving the quality of life of patients.

Objective To explore the psychological projection on improving the quality of marriage of patients with breast cancer after chemotherapy. Methods From January to December 2015, a total of 32 breast cancer patients with postoperative chemotherapy who admitted to Department of General Surgery Huai'nan North Hospital and Huai'nan Eastern Hospital were selected as the research object. Olson marital quality questionnaire was issued when patients firstly receiving chemotherapy in hospital, at the same time they were evaluated by the Rorschach Inkblot Test. In view of the negative projection in the patient's test, the intervention was carried out by painting projective therapy, sand plate therapy, deep hypnosis and cognitive behavioral therapy. The marital quality of patients were investigated again at 1 month after discharge or the second time receiving chemotherapy. The scores of Olson marital quality questionnaire were compared before and after the intervention. Results Before the intervention of psychological projection, the score of marital satisfaction, husband and wife communication and sexual life dimension in the Olson quality of marriage questionnaire were (33.3±5.6), (30.9±5.5) and (28.2±4.2) respectively. The scores of each dimension after intervention were (36.1±4.6), (34.2±4.3), and (30.7±5.3) respectively. They were all improved in the Olson marital quality questionnaire, and the differences were statistically significant (t=2.19, 2.67,2.09; P<0.05). Conclusions The intervention of psychological projection can relieve the physical and psychological trauma caused by breast cancer in patients with postoperative chemotherapy of breast cancer and improve the quality of marriage.

This paper aims to study the effects of traditional Chinese medicine on multidrug resistant human gastric cancer cells in the cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis, and to study the apoptosis-inducing pathway. Different dilutions of extract were used to process human multidrug resistant gastric cancer SGC7901/ADR cells. Cell proliferation inhibition phenomenon was determined by MTT experiment. Nuclear morphological changes of apoptotic cells and apoptotic indexes were observed and determined by Hochest33528 staining followed with fluorescence microscope observing. Flow cytometry was used to detect cell apoptosis rate. Cell migration and invasion ability were observed and determined by Transwell method. Spectrophotometry was used to detect caspase-3 and caspase-9 enzyme activity. Western blotting was used to detect subcellular distribution of cytochrome c. The results showed that extract had obvious inhibition effect on proliferation of gastric cancer multidrug resistant SGC7901/ADR cells, which was time- and concentration-dependent. After processing multidrug resistant gastric cancer SGC7901/ADR cells with extract, the apoptotic index and apoptosis rate were significantly increased than those in the control group, which showed a time- and dose-dependent mode; but if a caspase inhibitor was added, apoptosis index was not obviously increased. Transwell method showed that migration and invasion ability of the extract-processed SGC7901/ADR cells dropped significantly. Spectrophotometry showed that in extract-processed SGC7901/ADR cells, caspase-3 and caspase-9 expression were increased, which had significant differences with the control group. Western blotting test showed that the distribution of cytochrome c decreased in mitochondria, while increased in the cytoplasm (i.e., cytochrome c escaped from mitochondria to the cytoplasm). In conclusion, extract could inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion, and induce apoptosis in human gastric cancer multidrug resistant SGC7901/ADR cells; and cytochrome c, caspase-9 and caspase-3 might be involved in cell apoptosis induced by extract, suggesting endogenous or mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.
