Objective To investigate the relationship between satisfaction of nursing service and nurses' personality and mental state.Methods 368 nurses ,288 patients and 234 dependents involved the investigation.Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory(MMPI)was used to analyze nurses' personality.Symptom Checklist-90(SCL-90),Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)were used to analyze nurses' mental states.A self-made questionnaire on satisfaction was used to investigate the satisfaction degree of patients and dependents with nursing service.The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis.Results The average score on satisfaction with the nurses' service was(8.29±0.98)and the average score on satisfaction with nurses' attitude was(8.19±1.21).The satisfaction with nurses' service was negatively correlated with the MMPI factors of manifest anxiety and dependency and positively with dominance of MMPI(both P<0.05).Satisfaction with nurses' attitude was negatively correlated with total score of SAS,dependency of MMPI,compulsion,anxiety,hostility and paranoid ideation of SCL-90(all P<0.05).Satisfaction with the service attitude was positively correlated with social responsibility of MMPI(P<0.05). Conclusion Satisfaction degree of patients and their dependents is related to nurses' personality and mental states.It's helpful to establish good relationship between nurses and patients and improve the clinical nursing service to perfect nurse's personality and relieve psychological stress on nurses.

Objective To understand the association between pregnancy intention and pregnancy-related anxiety in the second and third trimester and its strength.Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted in Ma' anshan,Anhui province.A total of 3 474 eligible pregnant women within 14 weeks of gestation were recruited.The information about their demographic characteristics were collected in early pregnancy.The completed questionnaire of pregnancy-related anxiety were asked to return in the second and third trimester.Logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the association between pregnancy intention and pregnancy-related anxiety in the second and third trimester.Results A total of 3 083 pregnant women were included in final analysis,The rate of unintentional pregnancy was 15.00% (n=461).The detection rates of pregnancy-related anxiety in the second and third trimester were 29.13% (n=898) and 30.36% (n=936).After controlling potential confounding factors,unintentional pregnancy increased the risk of pregnancy-related anxiety in the second trimester compared with intentional pregnancy (OR=1.85,95% CI:1.44-2.38);The risk of pregnancy-related anxiety also increased in the third trimester (OR=1.84,95% CI:1.44-2.35).Intentional pregnancy did not increase the risk of pregnancy-related anxiety in the second and third trimester.Conclusion The study results suggests that unintentional pregnancy could increase the risk of pregnancy-related anxiety in the second and third trimester.

Objective To evaluate the relations between hypertensive disorders (HDP) in pregnancy and early-term birth.Methods A total of 3 474 pregnant women were consecutively recruited.Demographic information was collected in early pregnancy.HDP was diagnosed in the first,second and third trimesters,respectively.On the basis of precise evaluation on gestation age,early-term birth was defined as gestational age of 37-38 weeks + 6 days.Logistic regression models were conducted to examine the associations between HDP and early-term birth.Results The current study included 3 260 pregnant women,with the rates of HDP,pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome and pre-eclampsia as 6.0% (n=194),4.2% (n=137) and 1.8% (n=57),respectively.After controlling for potential confounders,no significant differences between pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome and early-term birth (OR=1.49,95%C1:0.94-2.36) were found.Pre-eclampsia appeared to have increased the risk of early-term birth (OR=4.46,95% CI:2.09-9.54).Conclusion Pre-eclampsia could significantly increase the risk of early-term birth.This finding suggested that early detection and intervention programs were helpful in reducing the risk of early-term birth.

OBJECTIVETo understand the association between the blood glucose levels of pregnant women in second trimester detected by 75 gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and the birth weight of neonates.
METHODSDemographic information collection and OGTT were conducted for 3 081 pregnant women at ≤14 gestational weeks and 24-28 gestational weeks respectively. Multiple logistic regression analysis was done to identify the factors associated with the birth weight and the risks of large for gestational age (LGA) in three levels (FPG, OGTT-1 h and OGTT-2 h) of OGTT percentile group, multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between maternal glucose levels and neonate birth weight.
RESULTSPre-pregnancy obesity (24.0 kg/m2≤BMI<28.0 kg/m2) (OR=1.4, 95%CI:1.0-2.0, P=0.029) and gestational diabetes mellitus (OR=2.4,95% CI: 1.8-3.2, P<0.001) were the risk factors. Pre-pregnancy underweight (BMI<18.5 kg/m2) (OR=1.6, 95%CI: 1.2-2.2, P=0.003), preeclampsia (OR=4.0, 95%CI: 1.9-8.4, P<0.001) increased the risk for small for gestational age (SGA). Multiple linear regression analysis showed neonate birth weight was positive correlated with maternal glucose levels (β were 91.99, 33.60, 32.00, respectively, P<0.001). Percentile groups of each OGTT level was linearly positive associated with increased mean value of neonate birth weight, and so with the risk of LGA.
CONCLUSIONSThere were positive correlations between maternal glucose levels and neonate birth weight. The risk of LGA increased with the maternal glucose levels, but there was no statistical association between SGA and maternal glucose levels. FPG level is one of the predictors of LGA. Active surveillance and control of maternal glucose level can effectively reduce the risk of LGA.
