Objective:To investigate and analyze the current situation and influencing factors of professional decision-making self-efficacy of male nurses.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 133 male nurses from September to October 2020 in Shenzhen City as the research objects. The Self-efficacy Scale for Career Decision-making was used to conduct self-evaluation, career information collection, career goal selection, career planning formulation, and job-selection problem resolution.Results:Attitudes towards nursing majors, academic qualifications, reasons for applying for nursing majors, monthly family income, whether it is an only child, family residence, work status, number of job changes, mother′s education level, and married or not were the factors that affect male nurses′ professional self-efficacy ( t values were -1.989-12.523, F values were 7.476-325.316, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusion:Career decision-making self-efficacy has a good guiding role in the career selection, development and planning of male nurses. Medical units should formulate reasonable training methods or related training for new male nurses entering the clinic, so as to increase male nurses′ recognition of their occupations, thereby enhancing them Career decision-making self-efficacy.

Objective:
To explore the function of NLRP1 in noninfectious pulmonary injury (nonIPI) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) .
Methods:
In this study, we established the model of allo-HSCT with C57BL/6 and NLRP-/- mouse as recipients. Chimera rate was measured by flow cytometry. The HE staining was used to observe the pathology changes in the lungs. NLRP1 and relevant inflammatory proteins were measured by Western Blot.
Results:
On the day 14 after allo-HSCT, the chimera rate was more than 96%, HSCs of donors had been successfully transplanted into recipients. HE staining showed that nonIPI occurred after allo-HSCT. The degrees of injuries reached the peak on day 21. In addition, the expressions of MPO, NLRP1, p20, Mature-IL-1β and Mature-IL-18 had same tends with the degrees of nonIPI. When we knocked out NLRP1 gene of recipients, the degrees of nonIPI reduced and the expressions of MPO, p20, Mature-IL-1β and Mature-IL-18 were less than in non-knockout group.
Conclusion
allo-HSCT could cause nonIPI and high expressions of MPO, p20, IL-1β, IL-18, NLRP1. Knocking out NLRP1 gene could alleviate the degrees of nonIPI and reduce the expressions of relevant inflammatory proteins, indicating that NLRP1 might be one of factors contributed to nonIPI after allo-HSCT.

The disease treatment of patients with gastrointestinal cancer is accompanied by impaired bodily functions. Frailty is very common in patients with gastrointestinal cancer, and is closely related to its various adverse health outcomes, which seriously affects their prognosis. This article reviews the risk factors, correlation with adverse health outcomes and intervention methods of frailty in gastrointestinal cancer patients. It is pointed out that medical and nursing staff should identify the frailty state of patients with gastrointestinal cancer as soon as possible and make early interventions to improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective To observe the efficacy of low grip strength and grip asymmetry in predicting multiple postoperative outcomes in elderly patients with colorectal cancer. Methods A total of 257 elderly colorectal cancer patients were selected as study objects. Data on general information, grip strength indicators and adverse postoperative outcomes were collected from all patients. Associations of low grip strength, grip asymmetry with adverse postoperative outcomes were explored by Logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted to further analyze the efficacy of low grip strength and grip asymmetry alone and their combination in predicting adverse outcomes of patients. Results Grip strength, grip strength ratio, and the combination of grip strength and grip strength ratio could effectively predict the occurrence of complications. The areas under the curve (AUCs) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were 0.649 (0.587 to 0.707), 0.627 (0.565 to 0.686), and 0.672 (0.611 to 0.729) respectively. Grip strength ratio and the combination of grip strength and grip strength ratio could effectively predict prolonged hospital stays, with AUC(95%CI) of 0.671 (0.610 to 0.728) and 0.577 (0.514 to 0.638), respectively. Grip strength and the combination of grip strength and grip strength ratio could effectively predict the occurrence of frailty, with AUC (95%CI) of 0.585 (0.522 to 0.646) and 0.586 (0.523 to 0.647), respectively. Conclusion This study innovatively reveals the predictive efficacy of multiple grip strength indicators for postoperative outcomes in colorectal cancer patients. Low grip strength and grip asymmetry are effective in predicting the occurrence of complications in patients, grip asymmetry is effective in predicting the occurrence of prolonged hospitalization, and low grip strength is effective in predicting the occurrence of frailty in elderly patients with colorectal cancer.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA) RP11-770J1.3 and transmembrane protein 25 (TMEM25) on paclitaxel resistance in human breast cancer MCF-7/PR cell line.
METHODSThe expression of lncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 in human breast cancer MCF-7(paclitaxel sensitive) and MCF-7/PR(paclitaxel resistant) cells were detected by quantitative RT-PCR. The synthetic interfering fragments of lncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 were transfected into MCF-7/PR cells. Sulforhodamine B assay was used to detect the sensitivity of MCF-7/PR cells to paclitaxel after interference of lncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25. The expression of multidrug-resistance genes and proteins were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot, respectively.
RESULTSlncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 were highly expressed in MCF-7/PR cells, and were significantly down-regulated after transfection of synthetic interfering fragments. Down-regulation of lncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 enhanced the sensitivity of MCF-7/PR cells to paclitaxel, and inhibited the expression of MRP, BCRP and MDR1/P-gp (all<0.05). Such effects were more significant when lncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 were both down-regulated (all<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSlncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 are highly expressed in MCF-7/PR cells, and the down-regulation of lncRNA RP11-770J1.3 and TMEM25 can enhance paclitaxel sensitivity in MCF-7/PR cells.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) on cell cycle of breast cancer and its molecular mechanisms.
METHODSThe expression of CXCR4 and S phase kinase associated protein 2 (Skp2) was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (fqRT-PCR) and Western blot in breast cancer cells. The expression of signal proteins and the downstream genes of Skp2 was detected by Western blot. The effect of CXCR4, PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitor LY294002 and ERK pathway inhibitor U0126 on cell cycle of breast cancer was detected by propidium iodide staining.
RESULTSSkp2 was significantly down-regulated in CXCR4-downregulated cells and up-regulated in CXCR4-upregulated cells. CXCR4 also regulated the expression of Skp2 and other downstream genes by signaling protein. The proportion of cells in G/Gphase increased and that in S phase declined in CXCR4-downregulated cell, and the effect was more significant when combined with the use of LY294002 or U0126.
CONCLUSIONSCXCR4 can affect cell cycle and inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells by regulating Skp2 gene expression through PI3K/Akt and ERK signaling pathway.
