Objective To investigate the effect of night shift time at midnight on sleep quality of nurses . Methods Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and a self-designed questionnaire were used for the investigation among 459 nurses in a first class hospital in Fujian Province, analyzing the sleep quality of the nurses at night shift time at the time points of 0:00am,0:30am,1:00am and 1:30am during the midnight. Results The total score of nurses at night shift was (7.47 ±3.05). There were significant differences between the total scores at different time points (P<0.001). The comparisons between the time points of 0:00am and 0:30am,0:30am and 1:00am, 0:00am and 1:00am showed significant differences (P<0.017),and 0:00am<0:30am<1:00am. Conclusions As for night shift during midnight, the sleep quality for the night shift time 0:00am>0:30am>1:00am. The time points for night shift can vary with seasons and regions. The nurses should be aware of occupational prevention and develop a living habit. During night shift, the nurses should make an individualized plan.

Objective To investigate the current state of core competence of hospital clinical new nurses of different training mode so as to provide the basis for formulating targeted training mode . Methods Adopted order-form training mode that including internship and employment .Then using Competency Inventory For Registered Nurse to survey 104 new nurses who have registered in 2013 and analyzed the results . Results Total core capability score of new nurses was (158.40 ±25.95).And the dimensions score of critical thinking(27.81 ±3.72), clinical care (26.37 ±2.96), leadership ability (29.84 ±3.18), interpersonal relationships(26.05 ±5.47), legal/ethical practice(26.27 ±3.22), professional development (17.57 ±2.34) and education/consultation(20.43 ±3.14)among new nurses of order-form training was higher then that of non-order-form training nurses,and the differences between two groups showed statistically significance (t=6.207, 5.530,3.782,4.531,3.912,2.195,4.053,respectively;P<0.05).Conclusions Hospital should increase the proportion of order-form training, promote effective cooperation between institutions and hospitals and broaden the new ways of hospital talents construction .

Objective To discuss the correlation between the nurse′s humanistic care quality and the core competence of the low seniority nurses.Methods A total of 262 low seniority (work ≤3 years)registered nurses were selected from our hospital and completed the general information scale,nurse′s humanistic care quality scale and nurse′s core competence scale.Results The total score of humanistic caring quality of nurses was (1 1 0.41 ±1 1 .1 1 ).The total score of nurse′s core ability was (1 49.1 6 ±31 .08).Their total score and attributes were in the positive correlation (r =0.1 22-0.393,P <0.05).Conclusions Nurse′s humanistic care quality has the obvious correlation with the nurse′s core competence.When the hospital managers build up the humanistic care quality in the low seniority of nurses,it should carry on the care education,clear the care practicing and the standard of manage,improve the total level of the nurse′s humanistic care quality,training and develop the nurse′s core competence constantly in order to promote the total level nursing work.

Objective: To summarize the experience in diagnosis and treatment of 45, X Turner syndrome (TS) with gonadal Y chromosome mosaicism and bilateral gonadoblastoma (Gb) secreting human chorionic gonadotrophin(HCG). Methods: A female patient aged 5 years and 3 months was admitted to the hospital with a complaint of "enlarged breasts for 27 months, and elevated blood β-HCG for 8 months". The clinical data were summarized, and related literature up to March 2022 with the key words"Turner syndrome" "Gonadoblastoma" "Y chromosome" "human chorionic gonadotropin" "precocious" in PubMed, CNKI and Wanfang databases were reviewed. Results: The girl went to the local hospital for 2-month breast development at age of 3 years, and was found with a heart murmur diagnosed with "pulmonary venous malformation and atrial septal defect (secondary foramen type)". Surgical correction was performed. She experienced the progressive breast development, rapid linear growth and markedly advanced skeletal age, which cannot be explained by partial activation in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis determined at the age of 3 years and 7 months in local hospital. Then whole-exome sequencing revealed chromosome number abnormality 45, X, which was confirmed by Karyotyping. At the age of 4 years and 6 months, serum β-HCG was found to be elevated (24.9 U/L) with no lesion found at the local hospital. On physical examination, she was found with breast development, pubic hair development and clitoromegaly with elevated serum testosterone (1.96 μg/L) and β-HCG (32.3 U/L). Sex determining region Y(SRY) gene was negative in peripheral blood sample. Thoracic and abdominal CT, head and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging were normal. Exploratory laparotomy confirmed the presence of a left adnexal tumor and a right fibrous streak gonad. During surgery, simultaneous samples of bilateral gonadal and peripheral venous blood were obtained and serum β-HCG, estradiol and testosteron concentrations was higher to lower from left gonadal venous blood, right gonadal venous blood, to peripheral venous blood. Bilateral gonadectomy was performed. Histopathology revealed bilateral gonadoblastomas. SRY was positive in bilateral gonadal tissues. After surgery, serum E2, testerone and β-HCG returned to normal. So far 4 cases of HCG-secreting gonadoblastoma had been reported worldwide. The phenotypes of the 4 cases were all female, with virilization or amenorrhea, and the preoperative peripheral blood β-HCG concentrations were 74.4, 5.0, 40 456.0, and 42.4 U/L, respectively. Conclusions: There is a high risk of Gb in TS with Y chromosome components. Gb is infrequently presented with breast development, and Gb associated with HCG secretion is rare. Karyotyping should be performed in a phenotypic female with masculinization, and virilization in TS indicates the presence of Y chromosome material with concurrent androgen secreting tumors.
