Objective:To explore the effects of online supportive disclosure therapy on the self-expression level, professional identity, dimission intention, and turnover rate of pre-dimission nurses, in order to provide a reference for nursing managers to stabilize the nursing team.Methods:A quasi experimental research method was used, and a convenient sampling method was used to select 192 pre resigned nurses from Shandong Provincial Third Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University, and Shandong First Medical University Affiliated Provincial Hospital from October 2021 to December 2022 as the research subjects. They were divided into a control group and an experimental group by random number table method, with 96 nurses in each group. The control group received routine exit interviews, while the experimental group received online supportive disclosure therapy intervention based on this. The self-expression level, professional identity, dimission intention, and turnover rate of two groups of nurses before and 1, 2 months after the intervention were evaluated.Results:Finally, 94 nurses in the control group and 92 nurses in the experimental group completed the study. There were no significant differences in the self-expression level, professional identity, dimission intention before the intervention between the two groups ( P>0.05). After 1 and 2 months of the intervention, the scores of the Pain Self Disclosure Index, Nurse Professional Identity Rating Scale, and Resignation Intention Scale of the experimental group were 36.33 ± 5.13, 73.88 ± 8.72, 14.18 ± 1.12 and 34.22 ± 6.78, 98.26 ± 11.29, 6.16 ± 1.19, respectively,and the control group were 28.06 ± 8.23, 64.72 ± 10.39, 17.82 ± 1.37 and 44.26 ± 7.62, 79.82 ± 8.66, 9.18 ± 1.06, there were statistically significant differences between the two groups ( t values were -13.54 to -2.11, all P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences in the inter group effects, time effects, and interaction effects of the scores on the Pain Self Disclosure Index, Professional Identity Rating Scale, and Resignation Intention Scale between the two groups ( F values were 5.12 to 14.82, all P<0.05). The turnover rate of nurses in the experimental group was 1.09% (1/92), lower than 8.51% (8/94) in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=1.59, P<0.05). Conclusions:Online supportive disclosure therapy can improve the self-expression level and professional identity of pre-dimission nurses, and reduce their willingness to resign and turnover rate.

OBJECTIVETo establish a mouse model of spinal metastasis of human prostate cancer using fluorescence-labeled PC-3 cells to allow direct observation by in vivo imaging.

METHODSPC-3 cells were infected with a lentivirus carrying green fluorescence protein (GFP) gene. The GFP-positive cell clone was expanded and prepared into cell suspension for injection into the inferior vena cava of nude mice. The tumor growth and metastasis in the mice was directly observed using an in vivo fluorescence imaging system. The tumor-bearing mice were sacrificed after 3 months for histological examination with HE staining.

RESULTSThe labeled cells showed stable GFP expression both in vitro and in vivo. One week after cell injection, green fluorescence signals were detected by the in vivo fluorescence imaging system in the lower back of the mice, and at 4 weeks, the fluorescent tumor mass increased with a bone metastasis rate of 19% (3/16). Dissection of the mice at 3 months revealed lumbar tumor infiltration in 3 mice, showing a consistent result with in vivo fluorescence imaging.

CONCLUSIONThe nude mouse model of spinal bone metastasis of human prostate cancer established using GFP-labeled PC-3 cells facilitates further study of bone metastasis of prostate cancer.

Provirus integration site Moloney murine leukemia virus (Pim-1) is a proto-oncogene reported to be associated with cell proliferation, differentiation and survival. This study was to explore the neuroprotective role of Pim-1 in a rat model subjected to optic nerve crush (ONC), and discuss its related molecules in improving the intrinsic regeneration ability of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Immunofluorescence staining showed that AAV2- Pim-1 infected 71% RGCs and some amacrine cells in the retina. Real-time PCR and Western blotting showed that retina infection with AAV2- Pim-1 up-regulated the Pim-1 mRNA and protein expressions compared with AAV2-GFP group. Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) staining, γ-synuclein immunohistochemistry, Cholera toxin B (CTB) tracing and TUNEL showed that RGCs transduction with AAV2-Pim-1 prior to ONC promoted the survival of damaged RGCs and decreased cell apoptosis. RITC anterograde labeling showed that Pim-1 overexpression increased axon regeneration and promoted the recovery of visual function by pupillary light reflex and flash visual evoked potential. Western blotting showed that Pim- 1 overexpression up-regulated the expression of Stat3, p-Stat3, Akt1, p-Akt1, Akt2 and p-Akt2, as well as βIII-tubulin, GAP-43 and 4E-BP1, and downregulated the expression of SOCS1 and SOCS3, Cleaved caspase 3, Bad and Bax. These results demonstrate that Pim-1 exerted a neuroprotective effect by promoting nerve regeneration and functional recovery of RGCs. In addition, it enhanced the intrinsic regeneration capacity of RGCs after ONC by activating Stat3, Akt1 and Akt2 pathways, and inhibiting the mitochondrial apoptosis pathways. These findings suggest that Pim-1 may prove to be a potential therapeutic target for the clinical treatment of optic nerve injury.

Objective: To explore the expression and prognostic significance of miR-223 in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and to investigate the possible mechanism. Methods: Twenty-one newly diagnosed MCL patients with bone marrow involvement were enrolled in the present study, 20 healthy donors as normal control. The expression level of miR-223 and SOX11 mRNA was determined by RQ-PCR. CCK-8 and flow cytometer assays were used to analyze cell proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis of the constructed miR-223 overexpressing MCL cell line, Granta519 cells. SOX11 protein expression level was determined by Western blot. The target gene of miR-223 was confirmed by dual luciferase reporter assay. Results: ①Of the 21 newly diagnosed MCL patients, 15 were male and 6 female, the median age was 58 (37-72) years. The expression level of miR-223 was significantly down regulated in MCL patients compared with that of healthy donors (14.7±10.5 vs 1 244.1±1 935.2, P<0.001). The lower expression of miR-223 was inversely correlated with high-risk mantle international prognostic index (P=0.001), elevated LDH (P=0.001), ECOG score ≥2 (P=0.035). ②Using the median relative expression level of miR-223 as the cutoff value, 21 MCL patients were divided into high-expression group (n=10) and low-expression group (n=11) and found that the high-expression group had a significantly superior OS (median OS: 36 vs 12 months, P=0.021). ③In vitro results showed that compared with the control group, the proliferation of miR-223 overexpressed Granta519 cells was inhibited (the most significant reduction on 96h, P<0.001), manifested by lower proportion of cells in G2/M phase (P<0.001) and increased apoptosis (P<0.001), and the expression level of SOX11 protein in Granta519 cells was significantly lower than that of the control group. ④miR-223 could inhibited the 3′ untranslated region of SOX11, and the expression level of miR-223 was significantly negatively correlated with mRNA level of SOX11 in MCL patients (r=-0.81, P<0.001). Conclusions The expression of miR-223 was repressed in MCL and was associated with poor clinical outcomes, which may be probably attributed to its direct targeting SOX11.
