Objective To investigate and analyze the attitudes of higher vocational nursing students toward death and the related effect factors.Methods Totally 324 nursing students in a higher vocational school in Shaanxi province were investigated with death attitude profile-revised scale.Contents of investigation included physical and mental health status,family members' attitude towards death,family form and ranking,religion,presence of suicidal thoughts,exposure to mass media reports about death,reading books about death,death fear,death escape,natural acceptance,approach acceptance,avoidance acceptance,etc.SPSS 16.0 was used for data entry and statistic analysis,mean and standard deviation for statistical description,t test and variance analysis for statistical inference.Results ①Higher vocational nursing students got the highest average score (3.93 ± 0.55) in the dimension of natural acceptance.②In the dimension of avoidance acceptance,the scores of nursing students with excellent and good physical and mental health were significantly lower than those of students with general physical and mental health (F=4.80,P=0.009) ; the scores of nursing students in single parent family were significantly higher than those of students in other family forms (F=4.59,P=0.004) ; the scores of nursing students with suicidal thoughts were significantly higher than those of students without (t=-4.77,P=0.000).In the dimension of death avoidance,the scores of nursing students whose family discussed death openly were significantly lower than those of students whose family never done so (F=6.88,P=0.001).In the dimension of natural acceptance,the scores of nursing students with religious beliefs were significantly lower than those of students without (t=2.52,P=0.012) ; the scores of nursing students who gained information of death from mass media were significantly higher than those of nursing students who never done so.(t=-3.85,P=0.000),which was the same in the dimension of approach acceptance (t=-3.48,P=0.001).Conclusions The majority of higher vocational nursing students can naturally accept death reality.Attitude of higher vocational nursing students toward death are influenced by physical and mental health,discussing death in family,family form,religious belief,suicidal thought and news or report about death from the mass media.

Objective To observe the effects of telramethylpyrazine(TMP)on the splanchnic blood flow in severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)rats and to elucidate the underlying mechanism.Methods Thirty-two rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:telramethylpyrazine group(TMP group,n=16)and SAP group(n=16).At 12,24 hours after the induction of SAP,serum amylase was measured.The regional pancreatic blood flow was measured by Doppler ultrasound;the blood flow of portal vein,spleen artery and superior mesenteric artery were also measured.Results The level of the serum amylase was lower in the TMP group than that in the SAP group(P

Objective To study whether amputation of the tail extremity could induce change of Fos protein expression in mice ACC neurons , and explore the role of NK?1 receptor in the change. Methods Immunohistochemistry technique was adopted to study Fos protein expression change in mice ACC neurons at 0.25 h,0.5 h,1 h,2 h after amputation of the tail extremity 2.5 cm,and also the effect of NK?1 receptor antagonist GR82334(iv)or GR82334(ith)in the change. Results Fos protein expression in mice ACC neurons was significantly increased at 0.25 h,0.5 h after the amputation,and reached its peak at 1 h after the amputation,then started to decrease at 2 h after the amputation. GR82334(iv)com?pletely antagonized the significant augment in Fos protein expression in mice ACC neurons after the amputation ,but the antagonism of GR82334 (ith)was incomplete. Conclusion Amputation of the tail extremity could significantly increase the Fos protein expression of mice ACC neurons in a time?dependent manner. Both peripheral and central NK?1 receptors were involved in the process. However ,there are also central conduction pathways of other receptors and neurotransmitters involved in the significant augment in Fos protein expression in mice ACC neurons after amputa?tion.

Objective Dual-source CT(DSCT) energy imaging was used to analyze the difference of energy spectrum pa-rameters and energy spectrum curves between mediastinal metastatic lymph nodes and non-metastatic lymph nodes in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). The relationship between DSCT standardized iodine concentration and energy spectrum curve with medias-tinal lymph node metastasis was discussed. Methods A total of 113 patients with NSCLC underwent DSCT energy imaging scans. Io-dine images were obtained at the processing workstation. The normalized iodine concentrations of all mediastinal lymph nodes and en-ergy spectrum curves at different energy levels were measured. According to the pathological results,the patients were divided into lymph node metastasis group and non-lymph node metastasis group. The normalized iodine concentration and energy spectrum curve slope of the two groups were analyzed by t-test. The best threshold of standardized working iodine concentration was calculated by re-ceiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)to diagnose the mediastinal lymph node metastasis of NSCLC. Results There was a sig-nificant difference in the normalized iodine concentration between the two groups of mediastinal lymph nodes in NSCLC(P<0. 05);The ROC curve was used to calculate the standardized iodine concentration for the diagnosis of NSCLC. The optimal threshold for lymph node metastasis was 52. 45% ;The energy spectrum curve of mediastinal lymph nodes in NSCLC was gradually decreasing. There was a significant difference between the two groups in the range of 40~110 keV interval(P<0. 05). Conclusion The quanti-tative analysis of DSCT energy imaging parameters is of great significance in the diagnosis of mediastinal lymph node metastasis in NSCLC. It can be used as an important index for preoperative judgment of lymph node metastasis in NSCLC.

Objective Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of liver cancer in patients with hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 504 patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis who were treated in a hospital from April 2021 to April 2024. The occurrence of liver cancer was counted. The risk factors of liver cancer in patients with HBV-related cirrhosis were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results Among the 504 patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis, 101 patients developed liver cancer and 403 patients did not develop liver cancer, which were included in the liver cancer group (n=101) and the non-liver cancer group (n=403).. Among hepatitis B cirrhosis, the incidence rate of liver cancer was 20.04%. Compared with the non-liver cancer group, the proportion of patients with long-term drinking history, family history of liver cancer, history of diabetes mellitus, antiviral therapy, and HBV-DNA load>104 were higher in the liver cancer group (P<0.05). logistic regression analysis found that long-term drinking history (OR=3.077, 95%CI: 1.130-8.378, P=0.028), history of diabetes mellitus (OR=3.747, 95%CI: 1.765-7.954, P=0.001), no antiviral therapy (OR=3.466, 95%CI: 1.337-8.985, P=0.011) and HBV-DNA load>104 (OR=3.149, 95%CI: 1.353-7.328, P=0.008) could independently affect the occurrence of liver cancer in patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis. Conclusion According to logistic regression analysis, long-term drinking history, history of diabetes mellitus, no antiviral therapy, and HBV-DNA load>104 are risk factors for liver cancer in patients with HBV-related cirrhosis.
