Objective to analyze the basic situation of university and college teachers′psychological empowerment,and investigate the effect of perceived organizational support,organizational identification,supervisory commitment on psychological empowerment. Methods the instruments which were used include perceived organizational support questionnaire(POS),organizational identification questionnaire(OIQ),supervisory com-mitment scale(SCS)and psychological empowerment scale(PES). A total number of 1 500 teachers were recruited conveniently from 6 university and colleges. Results the average score of psychological empowerment was 60.09±14.21. Positive correlation was found among perceived organiza-tional support,organizational identification,supervisory commitment and psychological empowerment(P < 0.05). Perceived organizational support, organizational identification and supervisory commitment explained 86.5% of variance of psychological empowerment. Conclusion Overall level of university and college teachers′psychological empowerment is in moderate or above degree. Perceived organizational support,organizational identifi-cation,and supervisory commitment can predict a deep level of psychological empowerment.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the constituents of the Annona squamosa and evaluate their anti-tumor activity.

METHODThe compounds were isolated and purified by various column chromatography. Their structures were elucidated by spectral data analysis. Their anti-tumor activity was assayed by SRB method.

RESULTEleven compounds were obtained from the 95% EtOH extract. The structures were determined as: annosquamosin C(1),15, 16-epoxy-17-hydroxy-ent-kau-ran-19-oic acid (2),16,17-dihydroxy-ent-kau-ran-19-oic acid(3), annosquamosin A(4), ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid (5), 19-nor-ent-kauran4-ol-17-oic acid (6),16-hydroxy ent-kau ran-19-oic acid (7), ent-15beta-hydroxy-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid (8), annosquamosin B (9), ent-16beta, 17-dihydroxykauran-19-al (10), 16, 17-dihydroxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid me thyl ester (11). Compounds 1,2,3,5,9 showed different inhibitory activities against 95-D lung cancer cells,the effect of compound 5 was strongest with the IC50 value 7.78 micromol x L(-1); Compounds 2, 5, 9 showed inhibitory activities against A2780 ovarian cancer cells, the effects of compounds 2 and 9 were strong with the IC50 values being 0.89, 3.10 micromol x L(-1), respectively.

CONCLUSIONCompound 2 was firstly isolated from this family, while compound 8 and 10 were first found from this genus and the title species, respectively. The in vitro anti-tumor test showed compound 5 significantly inhibited 95-D lung cancer cells and compounds 2 and 9 exhibited remarkbale activity against A2780 ovarian cancer cells.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a smart non-invasive blood glucose monitor prototype during pregnancy through clinical validation.The monitor utilizes near-infrared spectroscopy combined with AI big data analysis of photoelectric volumetric pulse wave data to achieve non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose in women during pregnancy.The research team developed a monitor that employs a sensing chip,effectively overcoming the problems of weak signals and individual differences in non-invasive blood glucose monitoring.The user experience is enhanced by visualizing the test results on the accompanying cell phone APP(application)of the smart non-invasive pregnancy blood glucose monitor.Clinical validation revealed that the non-invasive monitoring data for pregnant women aged 20～30 years significantly differed from those obtained via traditional blood glucose measurement methods,whereas no significant difference(P<0.05)was observed for pregnant women aged 31～42 years.The study concluded that further calibration of the monitor and an expansion of the sample size are necessary to enhance consistency with invasive glucose monitoring results.

Objective:To visualize and analyze the literature related to the treatment of extremity lymphedema (EL) over the years 2012 to 2022 and to explore future research directions.Methods:Taking "lymphedema" and "treatment" as the themes, the study searched the Chinese and English literature related to EL treatment reported by Chinese scholars from 2012 to 2022 in Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science (WOS) databases, and used CiteSpace software to visualize the literature, draw maps of authors, research institutes, keywords, etc., and carry out clustering and emergent word analysis on the keywords.Results:A total of 1 007 Chinese articles with 16 core authors and 236 English articles with 8 core Chinese authors were included. The author with the largest number of publications in Chinese was Liu Ningfei from the Ninth People’s Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (16 articles), and the author with the largest number of publications in WOS was Cheng Ming-Huei from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital Lin Kou Campus (Taiwan Province of China) (33 articles). The institution with the largest number of articles in Chinese was Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center (16 articles), and the institution with the largest number of articles in English was Chang Gung University (Taiwan Province of China) (45 articles). "Breast cancer" "nursing care" and "quality of life" were the top 3 keywords in CNKI ; "breast cancer" "diagnosis" and "lower extremity" were the top 3 keywords in WOS. Cluster analysis of the keywords showed that 16 clusters in CNKI and 11 clusters in WOS covering evaluation indexes, treatment method and mechanism studies. The result of CNKI keyword emergence analysis showed that the top 10 emergent keywords were "postoperative breast cancer" "upper limb" "rehabilitation" "nursing care" "rehabilitation therapy" "intramuscular effect patch" "acupuncture therapy" "cervical cancer" "upper limb function" "lymphatic drainage". The result of WOS keyword emergence analysis showed that the top 10 emergent keywords were "prevalence" "extremity lymphedema" "therapy" "postmastectomy lymphedema" "transplantation" "cancer" "flap transfer" "mechanism" "surgical treatment" "reconstruction" .Conclusion:Surgical treatment, preventive nursing and lymphangiogenesis are the key research directions of EL treatment. Both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have their own advantages in the treatment of EL, and the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine can play a better role in the treatment. Multidisciplinary team can develop personalized solutions for patients.
