Objective To explore the association between polymorphisms in non-muscle myosin heavy chain 9 gene (MYH9) and hypertension susceptibility in chronic kidney disease (CKD)patients.Methods Five hundred and ninety-five persons,including 301 patients with CKD and 294 healthy controls,were enrolled in the study.Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs3752462,rs4821480) were genotyped by TaqMan assay or a restriction fragment length polymorphism assay for a further case-control study.The discrepancies of the patients'quantitive traits (including age,sex,systolic and diastolic blood pressure,frequency of different primary diseases and using different kinds of antihypertensive drugs) among different genotypes of the two MYH9 SNPs were analyzed.Meanwhile,the association between polymorphisms in MYH9 and hypertension susceptibility in CKD patients were analyzed in the rs3752462 site.Results The systolic blood pressure of CT genotype patients [(147.94± 27.40) mm Hg] was significantly higher than that of C C genotype patients [(136.43 ± 19.09)mm Hg] by single factor analysis of variance (P ＜ 0.05).The frequency of using all kinds of antihypertensive drugs for CC genotype patients (7.4％) was lower than that of TT (43.9％) and CT (48.7％) genotype patients (P ＜ 0.05).After correcting the age factor,the result of Logistic regression analysis showed that CC genotype was a protective factor of systolic blood pressure increasing.The probability of high blood pressure for CT genotype patients with CKD was 0.175 times than that of CC genotype (95％ CI 0.071,0.431).Conclusions The CKD patients who carry the rs3752462 site CC genotype of MYH9 gene are not prone to high blood pressure.Polymorphism of MYH9 gene rs3752462 site is associated with systolic blood pressure in CKD patients.It may indicate that allele C mutation for T can lead to the increase in systolic blood pressure.

Aim To investigate the role of autophagy and its mechanism in Raji cell death induced by arse-nic trioxide. Methods Transmission electron micros-copy ( SEM) and MDC fluorescence staining were used to observe autophagy. MTT colorimetry was employed to assay the cellular proliferating activity. Cell apopto-sis and cell cycle analysis were performed using FITC-Annexin-V/PI double staining and flow cytometry ( FCM) . The expressions of LC3 and the conversion of LC3-I to LC3-II were measured by western bloting. The expression of bcl-2 mRNA and p53 mRNA were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain re-action ( RT-PCR ) . Results Arsenic trioxide could obviously inhibit the proliferation of Raji cells, arrest the cells at G2/M phase and induce apoptosis. Mean-while, arsenic trioxide markedly inhibited the expres-sion of bcl-2 mRNA and enhanced the expression of p53 mRNA in Raji cells. Arsenic trioxide also induced autophagy synchronously which paralleled with the in-duction of apoptosis in Raji cells, and 3-MA, an auto-phagy inhibitor, was able to reverse the arsenic triox-ide-activated autophagic activity, up-regulate bcl-2, down-regulated p53 expression and suppress the lethal effect of arsenic trioxide on Raji cells to reduce their sensitivity to arsenic trioxide. In contrast, the Rapamy-cin, an autophagy inducer, possessed the completely opposite effects on Raji cells compared with 3-MA. Conclusions The apoptosis and autophagic cell death are coexistent in arsenic trioxide-triggered death of Raji lymphoma cells, and Bcl-2 and p53 may play a key regulating role in this process.

Objective:To analyze the research status of the midwifery in China from 2012 to 2021, and to explore the research hotspots and research trends in the midwifery in China in the past 10 years.Methods:The CiteSpace software was used to analyze the time distribution, authors, institutions and keywords of related studies in the field of midwifery published in nursing core journals in China. The search period was from January 2012 to December 2021.Results:A total of 442 articles were included, with the largest number of papers published in 2014 and 2015, and no increase in the number of papers published after 2016. The core author group in the field of midwifery was basically formed, with close cooperation among authors and high output from the five cooperative groups, but little cooperation among teams. Cooperative research with regional institutions began to take shape, and inter-regional collaborative research was relatively scarce. The hotspot keywords in the field of midwifery were "midwife", "pregnant woman", "natural childbirth", "obstetric nursing" and "delivery outcome".Conclusions:The development of research in the field of midwifery in China is slow, and cooperation between teams, institutions and regions needs to be further strengthened in the future. Strengthening the capacity building of midwifery professionals is the key direction of future research, and obstetric nursing is the main trend of future research.

Objective:To study the structure and diversity of intestinal flora in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients, and to explore the correlation of intestinal microorganisms with clinical indicators and renal pathology.Methods:Fifteen IgAN patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College from May 2020 to September 2020 were retrospectively enrolled as IgAN group, and 8 healthy families and 7 health checkups were enrolled as healthy control group. Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology was performed for DNA sequencing in the 16S rDNA-V4 region of all bacteria in the feces sample. QIIME 2 was used to process and analyze original sequence, compared with Greengenes (V138) database. The DADA2 software was called to denoise the data, which was equivalent to a 100% similarity cluster (OTU was a 97% similarity cluster). PCoA was used to analyze the structure and diversity of intestinal flora. Spearman correlation or Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation of differential flora with renal pathology and clinical indicators.Results:(1) The intestinal microbial β diversity in IgAN patients was significantly different from that in healthy controls ( P=0.010). (2) Compared with the healthy control group, the numbers of intestinal flora species in IgAN group were significantly increased in 1 phylum, 3 families and 22 genus. At the levels from phylum to family, the species numbers of Firmicutes and Ruminococcaceae in IgAN patients reduced than those in healthy controls and the species numbers of Chloroflexi, Gaiellaceae, Staphylococcaceae and Family-XⅢ in IgAN patients increased than those in healthy controls (all P<0.05). At the genus level, compared with the healthy controls, the species number of Subdoligranulum in IgAN patients was significantly reduced ( P=0.020), and the species number of Ruminococcus- gnavus- group was significantly increased ( P=0.004). (3) At the phylum level of the species number, Firmicutes in IgAN patients was positively correlated to albumin (ALB) ( r=0.637, P=0.037) and IgG ( r=0.452, P=0.046), Gemmatimonadetes was negatively correlated to serum creatinine ( r=-0.453, P=0.045), Verrucomicrobia was negatively correlated to IgM ( r=-0.450, P=0.046), and Patescibacteria was positively correlated to IgA ( r=0.469, P=0.037). At the genus level of the species number, Ruminococcus- gnavus- group ( r=-0.614, P=0.004) and Megamonas ( r=-0.451, P=0.042) were negatively correlated to ALB; Subdoligranulum was positively correlated to ALB ( r=0.563, P=0.009); Dialister was negatively correlated to C3 ( r=-0.427, P=0.041) and was positively correlated to IgA ( r=0.434, P=0.035); Veillonella was positively correlated to estimated glomerular filtration rate ( r=0.452, P=0.043). The species numbers of Eisenbergiella ( r=-0.850, P=0.007), Holdemania ( r=-0.845, P=0.008), Flavonifractor ( r=-0.845, P=0.008), and Ruminiclostridium- 9 ( r=-0.845, P=0.008) were negatively correlated to glomerulosclerosis or adhesion (S) of Oxford classification; the species number of Fusicatenibacter was negatively correlated to mesangial hypercellularity ( r=-0.845, P=0.008); the number of Coprococcus- 2 was positively correlated to S ( r=0.738, P=0.037) and tubular atrophy or interstitial fibrosis ( r=0.756, P=0.030). (4) Random forest model was built with Ruminococcus- gnavus- group and Subdoligranulum, after fitting the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.927. Conclusions:The intestinal flora of IgAN patients is different from that in healthy subjects. Changes of intestinal flora in IgAN patients are related to clinical indicators and renal pathology. In particular, Ruminococcus- gnavus- group and Subdoligranulum may play an important role in IgAN.

Liver transplantation has become an important means of treating end-stage liver diseases. However, due to various factors, liver transplant recipients are in a state of fatigue for a long time. Fatigue can lead to poor health conditions, changes in normal social functions, an increase in negative emotional states, a decrease in quality of life, and even a possible decrease in survival rate. In order to strengthen the attention of medical staff to liver transplant recipients′ fatigue, timely detection and early effective interventions, this article will review the concept, survey tools, current status, related influencing factors, and intervention measures of fatigue in liver transplant recipients, in order to provide theoretical basis for improving fatigue symptoms in liver transplant recipients.

This paper introduces the related concepts and research status at home and abroad of caregiver burden in elderly patients with hip fracture, and reviews the influencing factors of caregiver burden from four aspects of patients, caregivers, family economic and social support, so as to provide reference for exploring more targeted nursing measures and reducing caregiver burden.

Despite decades of laboratory and clinical trials,breast cancer remains the main cause of cancer-related disease burden in women.Considering the metabolism destruction effect of metformin(Met)and cancer cell starvation induced by glucose oxidase(GOx),after their efficient delivery to tumor sites,GOx and Met may consume a large amount of glucose and produce sufficient hydrogen peroxide in situ.Herein,a pH-responsive epigallocatechin gallate(EGCG)-conjugated low-molecular-weight chitosan(LC-EGCG,LE)nanoparticle(Met-GOx/Fe@LE NPs)was constructed.The coordination between iron ions(Fe3+)and EGCG in this nanoplatform can enhance the efficacy of chemodynamic therapy via the Fenton reaction.Met-GOx/Fe@LE NPs allow GOx to retain its enzymatic activity while simultaneously improving its stability.Moreover,this pH-responsive nanoplatform presents controllable drug release behavior.An in vivo biodistribution study showed that the intracranial accumulation of GOx delivered by this nano-platform was 3.6-fold higher than that of the free drug.The in vivo anticancer results indicated that this metabolism destruction/starvation/chemodynamic triple-combination therapy could induce increased apoptosis/death of tumor cells and reduce their proliferation.This triple-combination therapy approach is promising for efficient and targeted cancer treatment.

Objective:To explore the current situation of the partnership between pediatric nurses and children's parents, and analyze the influencing factors of the partnership from the perspective of pediatric nurses and children's parents respectively, so as to provide a basis for improving the partnership between pediatric nurses and children's parents.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. From January 2021 to January 2022, 595 pediatric nurses and 590 parents of hospitalized children from three ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Zhengzhou were selected as the research object by convenience sampling. The General Information Questionnaire and the Pediatric Nurse Parent Partnership Scale were used to investigate the subject and evaluate the cooperation between them in caring for children. Single factor analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of the partnership between pediatric nurses and children's parents. Totals of 595 pediatric nurses' questionnaires were distributed, 587 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the valid recovery rate was 98.66% (587/595) . Totals of 590 parents' questionnaires were distributed, 583 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the valid recovery rate was 98.81% (583/590) .Results:The total scores of pediatric nurses and children's parents' partnership were (136.98±19.56) and (143.20±22.09) , respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that working years, upbringing experience, personal monthly income and departments were the influencing factors of pediatric nurse partnership ( P<0.05) ; and education level, average monthly income of the family and the disease course were the influencing factors of the children's parents' partnership ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The partnership between pediatric nurses and parents of children in Zhengzhou is above average. The partnership between pediatric nurses and children's parents is affected by various factors of both sides. Attention should be paid to the partnership between pediatric nurses with low seniority, no upbringing experience and low personal income and parents with low education level, low family income level and long course of disease, and the partnership should be improved through certain interventions, so as to provide high-quality nursing services for children.

Objective:To explore the effect of out-of-hospital nursing based on gratitude extension-construction theory on self-management efficacy of young and middle-aged patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:A total of 136 young and middle-aged patients who underwent PCI in Coronary Heart Disease Ward of Department of Cardiology in Henan Provincial People's Hospital were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. The patients were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group by the envelop method, with 68 patients in each group. The control group received routine out-of-hospital nursing, while the observation group received out-of-hospital nursing based on gratitude extension-construction theory. Self-management efficacy was compared before and after intervention between the two groups.Results:After intervention, the scores for self psychological management, self-management confidence, self-management behavior, self-management cognition and self-management information in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:Out-of-hospital nursing based on gratitude extension-construction theory can significantly improve self-management efficacy of young and middle-aged patients undergoing PCI.
