Based on the development trends of nursing care in the ongoing healthcare reform, the PEST model was called into play to analyze the macro-environment of nursing development in terms of such aspects as political, economic, social-cultural, and science and technology factors. Based on such, policy suggestions are raised to tackle the following challenges, namely incomplete political and legal environment for nursing, relative shortage of nursing resources, low social recognition, and poor capability of nursing technique innovation. These suggestions aim to further improve the political and legal system for nursing, explore highly efficient nursing resource allocation, enhance nursing service capability, and nurture nursing technique innovation talents.

Objective: To investigate the possibility of adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cell-derived microvesicles (ADSC-MVs) to improve the retention volume of fat transplantation. Methods: Human adipose tissue was obtained from 5 healthy female patients aged from 20 to 30 years, who came to the hospital for abdominal liposuction. Adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) were acquired by collagenase enzymatic hydrolysis. ADSC-MVs were isolated from the supernatant of cultured ADSCs through ultra-centrifugation, and characterized by transmission electron microscope and PKH26 staining. Sixteen BALB/c-nu nude mice were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=8, mice/group) by random number table method. In EV group, the mice were subcutaneously injected 0.35 ml human fat, with 7 μg ADSC-EVs (final concentration is 20 μg/ml), while 0.35 ml human fat were in blank group. The mice were sacrificed and the grafts were harvested at 1 month and 3 months after transplantation. Weight and volume of transplanted fat were tested. Morphology of adipocytes, fibrosis and necrosis of fat tissue were confirmed by HE staining. Blood vessel density were accessed by CD31 staining.SPSS 13.0 was used for statistical analysis and Student-t test was applied to compare the data from two groups. Results: One month after fat transplantation, the volume of fat grafts in blank group was lower than that in MV group. Besides, lipoliquefaction can be observed in fat grafts of blank group. Fat grafts in MV group had a higher volume and littler necrosis and lipolique faction. Three months after grafting, the volume of fat grafts in blank group [(0.057±0.009) ml] was significantly lower than that in MV group [(0.103±0.015) ml], t=8.117, P<0.001. MV group had an increased number of vessels (29.6±4.0/field) compared with grafts from the Blank group (23.0±2.4/field), t=2.825, P=0.022. Histological analysis revealed that the fat grafts in MV group consisted less fat necrosis and fibrosis than control group. Conclusions ADSC-MVs can improve the retention volume of fat transplantation.

Objective:To implement visual analysis on inflammatory bowel disease and sleep to explore research hotspots and development trends.Methods:Literature related to inflammatory bowel disease and sleep was obtained from the Web of Science core collection database. The search period was from January 2003 to October 2023. CiteSpace 5.6.R5 was used for visual analysis.Results:A total of 311 articles on inflammatory bowel disease and sleep were included, and the overall publication volume showed an upward trend. The countries and institutions with the highest publications were the United States and Harvard University. The journal and author with the highest publication volume were Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Ali Keshavarzian. The research hotspots on inflammatory bowel disease and sleep focused on quality of life, psychological state (depression, anxiety, and stress), fatigue, and risk. Conclusions:The overall trend of inflammatory bowel disease and sleep is developing. Quality of life, psychological state (depression, anxiety, and stress), fatigue, and risk are hotspots on inflammatory bowel disease and sleep.

Objective To probe into the gaps between the inpatient care needs at public tertiary hospitals and existing nursing services,for measures to improve the quality of nursing service.Methods The simple clinical score(SCS),Barthel index scale,patient care needs questionnaire,and actual service status questionnaire were used in a multi-centered stratified random sampling survey, covering the adult inpatient wards of 72 departments at six tertiary hospitals.The results were subject to a stratified analysis of patient care needs, and a comparative analysis between patient care needs and the actual status of the service.Results Statistically significant differences were found between the nursing needs of patients from among different departments,self-care abilities and those with different conditions(P<0.05); the patient care needs and actual service status in cleaning, eating, excretion, activities, health education, basic treatment and nursing of traditional Chinese medicine in terms of the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05); the comparative analysis found differences between patient care needs and actual service status.The top five patient care needs which were greater than the actual service status were namely temperature measuring,rehabilitation guidance,routine inspection,observation and psychological care.The top five areas with actual service status greater than patient care needs were namely turnover /back flapping, toilet assistance,temperature measuring,hands washing before and after meals,and herbal fumigation.The top five areas with minimal gap between needs and service were namely oral care, moxibustion, perineal care,assistance in using toilet in bed and manicure.Conclusions Departments, self-care abilities and conditions of patients vary with their needs of nursing.Based on the existing problems between patient care needs and the actual service status,nurses should increase their care in such soft indicators as rehabilitation guidance,routine inspection and disease observation, and fully meet the needs of patients.On the other hand,they are expected to enhance patients′health education and health literacy in such hard indicators as temperature measuring,turnover and back flapping.

Objective: The study aimed to explore the relationship between childhood maltreatment (CM) and the Big Five personality traits of middle school students, so as to provide scientific evidence for promoting the healthy development of middle school students personality. Methods: A total of 5 724 middle school students from Xuancheng, Hefei and Huaibei of Anhui Province were selected by using a multi stage stratified cluster sampling method to conduct a questionnaire survey, including demographic characteristics, CM experience and Big Five personality traits. Linear regression analysis and canonical correlation analysis were used to explore the associations between CM and the Big Five personality traits. Results: Physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical neglect, and emotional neglect of middle school students were significantly associated with conscientiousness ( β = -1.71 --2.55) and neuroticism ( β =1.93-3.87) personality traits( P <0.05). Except physical abuse, all other types of CM were significantly associated with extraversion ( β =-1.04--2.32) and agreeableness ( β =-1.07--1.37) personality traits( P <0.05), and only sexual abuse was associated with openness personality trait( β=-0.70, P <0.05). Except for openness personality trait, the relationship between the number of CM experience and the personality traits of middle school students was statistically significant; there was a dose response relationship between the number of CM experiences and the scores of personality traits each dimension( P < 0.05). In the canonical correlation analysis, the canonical correlation coefficient was -0.375( P <0.05). CM experiences were mainly reflected by emotional abuse, emotional neglect and physical neglect (canonical load coefficient was 0.556-0.951). The Big Five personality traits were mainly reflected by neuroticism, conscientiousness and extraversion (canonical load coefficient was -0.702 -0.639). Conclusion There is a correlation between CM and the personality traits of middle school students, and prevention of CM is of great significance for promoting the healthy development of middle school students personality.

Depressive disorder ranks as a major bur-den of disease worldwide,yet the current antidepressant medications are limited by frequent non-responsiveness and significant side effects.The lateral septum(LS)is thought to control of depression,however,the cellular and circuit substrates are largely unknown.Here,we identified a subpopulation of LS GABAergic adenosine A2A receptors(A2AR)-positive neurons mediating depres-sive symptoms via direct projects to the lateral habenula(LHb)and the dorsomedial hypothalamus(DMH).Activa-tion of A2AR in the LS augmented the spiking frequency of A2AR-positive neurons leading to a decreased activation of surrounding neurons and the bi-directional manipula-tion of LS-A2AR activity demonstrated that LS-A2ARs are necessary and sufficient to trigger depressive pheno-types.Thus,the optogenetic modulation(stimulation or inhibition)of LS-A2AR-positive neuronal activity or LS-A2AR-positive neurons projection terminals to the LHb or DMH,phenocopied depressive behaviors.Moreover,A2AR are upregulated in the LS in two male mouse mod-els of repeated stress-induced depression.This identifica-tion that aberrantly increased A2AR signaling in the LS is a critical upstream regulator of repeated stress-induced depressive-like behaviors provides a neurophysiological and circuit-based justification of the antidepressant poten-tial of A2AR antagonists,prompting their clinical transla-tion.
