Hematopoiesis starts from the embryo and runs through the entire life of a living body, which is a multi-stage and complex dynamic process that is regulated by multiple pathways, involving a variety of cells and hematopoietic anatomical locations. During the development of the mammalian hematopoietic system, the currently known hematopoietic anatomical locations mainly include yolk sac, aorta-gonad-mesonephros, fetal liver, bone marrow, and thymus. The first three are mainly responsible for hematopoiesis during the embryonic and fetal period, while bone marrow is the main place for postnatal hematopoiesis, and thymus is mainly responsible for the differentiation of T lymphocytes. Integrating flow cytometry, in vitro cell culture and in vivo animal transplantation models, early researchers conducted an in-depth analysis of the differentiation pathways of hematopoietic cells. However, due to technical limitations, it is difficult to track the single-cell hematopoietic activity of hematopoietic organs. Transcriptome sequencing at the single-cell level provides researchers with a unique perspective, making it possible to draw the most detailed cell fate transition maps of the hematopoietic development of living organisms, and providing new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of hematological tumors. In this article, we reviewed the research progress in the use of large-scale single-cell transcriptome sequencing in the field of physiological hematopoiesis in recent years.

AIM: The purposes are to (a) examine the emerging concepts of connection within nursing practice and education; (b) evaluate current measures of connections within nursing practice and education; and c) identify strategies for enhancing connections between nursing educators and students and for nurses and patients.
BACKGROUND: Nursing and other disciplines rely on connections, although the term has evolved significantly in recent years due to changes of perceptions and expectations within other disciplines and within society. The lack of an empirical tool and defined attributes has constrained research and knowledge development. The initial exploration provided the first step in understanding the context and meaning of the word connect within the nursing profession. Three specific components were identified in this initial exploration within the nursing perspective: (a) respect, (b) trust, and (c) mutuality. Although the foundation of nursing care is based on the relationship and connections between the nurse and the patient, it is further identified in the first article that the need to further investigate the emerging ideas of connection within nursing practice and education.
METHODS: A detailed literature review was used to explore the phenomena of connection. The review of literature was performed through searches of CINAHL, EBSCO, and PubMed utilizing resources from the disciplines of transportation, business, technology, and nursing. Criteria for inclusion were (a) peer--reviewed articles; (b) articles published in English; and c) articles published between 2000 and 2014. Search terms included: connect, connection, connected, connectedness, and nursing. The search yielded a total of 114 articles; 33 were selected for inclusion. Definitions and related attributes were organized and classified based on relevance and frequency within the literature.
RESULTS: The attributes that were consistently found in the literature within the nurse to patient connection were: (a) interactions between the person and the object of connection; (b) an inherent need to be part of a social system; (c) use of communication in verbal, written, nonverbal, physical or virtual format; (d) the occurrence of meaningfulness, trust, mutuality and respect; (e) polychronicity; and (f) technology based emphasis. Instruments that measure connections and connectedness provide valuable insight into the concept. However, they do not adequately address the concept of connection as it relates to nursing practice and education with current technological.
CONCLUSIONS: While connection is a common term and fundamental to the role of the nurse/patient relationship, the defining attributes of connect have dynamically changed, and therefore require new understanding. It is critical to restructure the nurse to patient connection and to redefine the term within nursing practice and education with the inclusion of the multifaceted technological advances that define our current generations. Strategies that would enhance the nursing educator and student connection include: a) creation of additional nursing educational based Apps and Apps that focus on self-instruction tutorials and remediation techniques for non-successful students; b) integration of technological learning modalities into nursing curricula in both undergraduate and graduate programs; c) reduction of use of textbooks and inclusion of technology based learning; d) development of learning communities inside and outside of the classroom; e) creation of virtual resource support with simultaneous communication and valuable nursing information; f) and increased use of virtual environment and virtual communication.

6.Application of extended reality technology for real-time navigation in clinical operation.
Journal of Southern Medical University 2023;43(1):128-132
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the application of extended reality (XR) technology in clinical surgeries for improving the success rate of surgeries.
METHODS:
To assist the surgeons to better understand the location, size and geometric shape of the lesions and reduce potential radiation exposure in minimally invasive surgical navigation based on two-dimensional images, we constructed three-dimensional models based on CT data and used XR technology to achieve intraoperative navigation. An improved quaternion method was used to improve the accuracy of electromagnetic positioning, with which the system error of positioning accuracy was reduced to below 2 mm. A 5G network was used to optimize the server GPU programming algorithm, and real-time video stream coding strategy and network design were adopted to reduce data transmission jam and delay in the remote surgery network, which achieved an average delay of less than 60 ms. A Gaussian distribution deformation model was used to simulate collision detection and stress deformation of the tissues to achieve a tactile perception effect.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION
The intraoperative navigation system based on XR technology allowed more accurate determination of the location of the lesions, effectively reduced the surgical risk, and avoided the risk of intraoperative radiation exposure. The low latency and high fidelity of 5G network achieved real-time interaction during the surgery to provide a technical basis for multi-terminal remote cooperative surgery. The combination of force feedback technology and XR technology enables the surgeons to conduct deep immersion preoperative planning and virtual surgery to improve the success rate of surgery and shorten the learning curve.

8.Nurses adaptation to technology towards quality care
Philippine Journal of Nursing 2022;92(2):86-91
Concept analysis on adaptation to technology was done to give emphasis to its use in the nursing profession towards quality care.
The constant changing environment not to mention the sudden existence of COVID-19 surprised the world alongside with arising
technology that led to the idea of adaptation of nurses to meet the patient and/or client's needs. The method used in the concept was
the Walker and Avant's approach. This approach is achieved through eight phases: choosing a concept, determining the purpose of
analysis, identifying all uses of the concept, defining attributes, identifying a model case, identifying borderline, related, and contrary
cases, identifying antecedents and consequences, and defining empirical referents. The attributes of adaptation of nurses were
successful interaction of nursing population with the technological environment and changes in function of the Nurse as to get used
to daily routine and technology.
