Objective:To explore the relationship and mechanism among job stressors, perceived professional benefits and humanistic practice ability in midwives, so as to provide reference for the training and management of midwives.Methods:Used the convenient sampling method to conduct a cross-sectional survey on 216 midwives in 6 comprehensive or specialized hospitals in Zhejiang Province by using Stressor Scale, Perceived Professional Benefits Questionnaire and Humanistic Practice Ability Scale from May to September 2020. The mediating effect was analyzed on the basis of the current situation analysis and correlation analysis.Results:The total scores of humanistic practice ability, job stressors and perceived professional benefits of midwives were (102.13 ± 25.91), (72.77 ± 14.49) and (138.23 ± 18.71) respectively. The job stressors of midwives were negatively correlated with humanistic practice ability ( r=-0.206, P<0.01), perceived professional benefits were positively related to humanistic practice ability ( r=0.289, P<0.001) and were negatively correlated with job stressors ( r=-0.507, P<0.001). Perceived professional benefits played a major mediating role in the influence of stressors on humanistic practice ability (the total standardized effect was -0.233, and the indirect effect was -0.144). Conclusions:Perceived professional benefits act as a main mediator between job stressors and humanistic practice ability in midwives. Managers should reduce job stressors, enhance perceived professional benefits, and promote the formation, development and practice of humanistic practice ability of midwives.

Objective To investigate the effect of the long non-coding RNA FGD5 antisense RNA1(lncRNA FGD5-AS1)on myocar-dial cell injury induced by high glucose levels through regulation of the miR-195-5p/Pim-1 proto-oncogene(PIM1)axis.Methods The rat myocardial cell line H9c2 and human myocardial cells were randomly allocated to the control,model,lncRNA FGD5-AS1 overex-pression,miR-195-5p inhibitor,negative control,and lncRNA FGD5-AS1 overexpression+miR-195-5p mimic groups to determine the expression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1,miR-195-5p,and PIM1.In addition,cell proliferation,apoptosis,and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels of the cells in each group were analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,the protein and mRNA expressions of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 and PIM1 and the survival and proliferation rates in H9c2 and human myocardial cells in the model group decreased(P<0.05),and the expression of miR-195-5p,apoptosis rate,and production levels of tumor necrosis factorα(TNF-α)and interleukin-6(IL-6)increased(P<0.05).Overexpression of the lncRNA FGD5-AS1 reversed these pathological changes in model group cells,whereas upregulation of miR-195-5p could weaken the effects of overexpression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1.Conclusion Overexpression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 enhances the expression of PIM1 by downregulating miR-195-5p,thereby inhibiting high glucose-induced myocyte inflamma-tion,promoting survival and growth,and alleviating apoptotic injury.
