Objective To deeply study the soft skills that pediatric nurses should have. Methods 8 pediatric registered nurses were interviewed, the whole interviewing process was fully noted, then the data were analyzed acconting to Colaizzi methods. Results Soft skills that pediatric nurses should have included: affinity, empathy, caring about others, sympathy, communication skills, spirit of contribution, a bridge for com-munication between patients and doctors, resolving conflicts skills, cooperation, seE-regulation, stress manage-ment, emotion management and working achievements. Conclusions Soft skills are very important to pedi-atric nurses, so we need progress it gradually.

Objective The discussion on the strategy for developing nursing human resources was carried out through truthfully understanding the medical managers' experiences of developing nursing human resources. We aimed to supply reference for establishment of policies by relevant government departments. Methods We collected data of 13 medical managers by in-depth interview and took notes (or recording) on the spot. The data were analyzed by Colaizzi's analysis program. Results Two aspects were summarized through reading, analyzing, reflecting, classifying and extracting. One was policy guidance for developing nursing human resource (4 items) and the other was policies and measures for developing nursing human resource (7 items). Conclusions The development of nursing human resource was influenced by many factors. It needs the common efforts by government, society, hospital and nurses.

Objective:To investigate effects of bone-resorptive lesion on stress distribution of femoral head and on progression in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).Methods:From April 2014 to September 2018, a total of 155 femoral heads from 94 patients diagnosed with ARCO stage II and III ONFH were retrospectively reviewed, including 77 males and 17 females with aged 39.90±10.45 years old (ranged from 18-64 years). The hips were divided into two groups according to whether there were bone-resorptive lesions. Further, we compared whether there was statistical difference between the two groups in staging. Then, a case of ARCO II hip joint without bone-resorptive lesion was selected from the included patients. Six femoral head with different diameters of spherical bone-resorptive lesion of 5 mm, 7 mm, 10 mm, 14 mm, 18 mm, and 23 mm were simulated. The influence of bone-resorptive lesion on the stress distribution of necrotic area and a spherical shell extending 1 mm radially around the bone-resorptive lesion was investigated by finite element method in slow walking conditions.Results:Of the 155 ONFH hips, 67 hips are complicated by bone-resorptive lesions, of which 17 were ARCO II, 50 were ARCO III. A total of 88 hips did not contain bone-resorptive lesions, of which 58 were ARCO II, ARCO III 30 cases. The proportion of ARCO stage II in the group with bone-resorptive lesions was significantly higher than that in the group without bone-resorptive lesions (χ 2=25.03, P=0.000). The finite element stress distribution cloud diagram showed that there was a stress concentration area around the bone-resorptive lesions. The maximum von Mises stress around bone-resorptive lesions in the models that contained a synthetic bone-resorptive lesions were significantly higher than those reported in the matched, non-synthetic bone-resorptive lesions finite element models ( t=3.139, P=0.026). The values for maximum von Mises stress around bone-resorptive lesions were 6.94±1.78 MPa and 5.01±0.35 MPa for the group with synthetic bone-resorptive lesions and the group non-synthetic bone-resorptive lesions, respectively. There was a positive correlation between the diameter of bone-resorptive lesions and the maximum and mean von Mises stress of necrotic areas as well as the maximum von Mises stress around bone-resorptive lesions. Conclusion:Bone-resorptive lesions can increase the maximum stress and average stress in the necrotic area. The larger the bone-resorptive lesion, the more the stress increases. There is a stress concentration area around the bone-resorptive lesions, which may accelerate the collapse of the femoral head.

Objective:To investigate the incidences and risk factors of poor hematopoietic reconstitution (PHR) in patients with hematological diseases who underwent haploidentical allograft and were treated with rituximab for desensitization.Methods:Eight-three donor specific anti-HLA antibody (DSA, 2000 ≤MFI<10 000) positive patients who underwent haploidentical allograft were prospectively enrolled. Rituximab (375 mg/m 2) was used for desensitization day-3 of conditioning regimen. Incidence and factors associated with PHR, including primary poor graft function and prolonged thrombocytopenia, were investigated. Results:There were 22 males and 61 females with a median age of 39(range: 1-65) years. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the 100 day cumulative incidences of neutrophil and platelet engraftment were 93.0% and 90.7%, respectively. The incidences of PHR were 14.7%. The 3-year relapse rate, non-relapse mortality (NRM) rate, event-free survival (EFS), leukemia-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were 6.5%, 15.1%, 70.8%, 79.4% and 79.4%, respectively. Patients with DSA MFI<5 000 (group A, n=46) experienced lower PHR (4.4% vs. 27.5%, P=0.003), and higher 3-year EFS (79.5% vs. 59.8%, P=0.020) compared to those with DSA MFI≥5 000 (group B, n=37). Multivariate analysis showed that DSA MFI≥5 000 was correlated with PHR ( HR=6.101, P=0.021). PHR was associated with higher NRM ( HR=4.110, P=0.026), lower DFS ( HR=3.656, P=0.019) and OS ( HR=3.656, P=0.019). Conclusion:Our data suggest that high pre-transplant DSA level is a risk factor for PHR in patients with hematological diseases receiving haploidentical allograft and rituximab for desensitization.

Objective:To investigate the value of minimal residual disease (MRD) in prediction of prognosis in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients with or above complete remission 2 (CR2) underwent.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 201 ALL patients who received allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) and pretransplant disease status ≥CR2 in Peking University People′s Hospital from January 2009 to December 2018. MRD was measured by multi-parameter flow cytometry at 1 month before transplantation and 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months or 12 months after transplantation. To investigate the influence of dynamic changes of MRD before and after transplantation on prognosis.Results:201 ALL patients, including 126 males and 75 females, with a median age of 18 years. The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), non-relapse mortality (NRM), leukemia-free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS) of all cases were 34%, 16%, 50%, and 56%, respectively. Positive pre-SCT MRD patients with higher 3-year CIR (47% vs 26%, P=0.003), lower 3-year LFS (40% vs 55%, P=0.047) and OS (42% vs 60%, P=0.065) than those with negative one. Subjects with positive post-MRD had higher 3-year CIR (73% vs 22%, P<0.001) and lower 3-year LFS (28% vs 56%, P=0.005) and OS (32% vs 60%, P=0.040) compared with those with negative one. Multivariate analysis showed that both pre-MRD and post-MRD were associated with higher CIR ( HR=1.823, P=0.018; HR=3.474, P<0.001), lower LFS ( HR=1.779, P=0.007; HR=2.185, P=0.001) and OS ( HR=1.609, P=0.034; HR=1.970, P=0.001). Negative pre-and post-SCT MRD group had lower 3-year CIR (17%, 42%, 82%; P<0.001) and higher 3-year LFS (61%, 44%, 18%; P<0.001) and OS (63%, 47%, 27%; P<0.001) compared with those unrisen post-SCT MRD group, and increased post-SCT MRD group. Multivariate analysis showed that pre-and post-SCT MRD dynamics were associated with CIR, LFS and OS ( P<0.01 for all) independently. The pre-and post-SCT MRD dynamics could better distinguish CIR (C=0.669) from that of pre-SCT MRD (C=0.587) and post-SCT MRD (C=0.629). Conclusion:Our data suggest that pre-SCT MRD, post-SCT MRD and the dynamic peri-SCT MRD could be used to predict transplant outcome of ALLpatients with or above CR2 who underwent allo-SCT.
