Objective:To analyze the effect of immersive scenario simulation training on improving the competency of infection prevention for health-care workers (HCWs).Methods:Taking the implementation time of immersive scenario simulation teaching training in Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine (August 2020) as the boundary, 352 new HCWs entered the hospital before the training (August 2019) were included as control group taking traditional teaching method, and 298 new HCWs entered the hospital after the training (August 2020) were included as observation group taking immersive scenario simulation combined with theoretical training. The mastery status of nosocomial infection-related knowledge and the implementation status of infection control measures (hand hygiene compliance, hand hygiene accuracy, correct personal protective equipment (PPE) selection, 100% of pass rate of PPE on and off, and qualified disposal of medical waste) were compared between the two groups of HCWs after theoretical teaching and different forms of practical training. The training effect (final assessment results) and training satisfaction (Minnesota satisfaction questionnaire, MSQ) of the two groups of HCWs were compared. SPSS 22.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:The assessment results of the two groups of new HCWs trained by theoretical lecturing and immersive scenario simulation training were significantly improved compared with those just received theoretical lecturing, and the results of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group ( P<0.05). The implementation status of infection control measures after practical training were obviously improved in the two groups of HCWs compared to after theoretical lecturing, and the correct rates of PPE selection and all the procedure of donning and doffing PPE of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group ( P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in the hand hygiene accuracy and qualified disposal of medical waste between the two groups ( P>0.05). At the end of training, the final assessment results and satisfaction MSQ score of HCWs in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Immersive scenario simulation teaching and training intervention is beneficial to improve the mastery of nosocomial infection knowledge of new HCWs, standardize their clinical infection control behaviors such as hand hygiene and aseptic operation, and finally obtain good training effect of infection prevention competency.

Objective:To screen the differentially expressed genes(DEGs)under high phosphate-induced calcification in the vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs)by mRNA high-throughput sequencing technology,and to analyze the key genes and signaling pathways involved in the VSMCs calcification.Methods:The human VSMCs were divided into control group and model group.The cells in model group was exposed to the high-phosphate medium,while the cells in control group were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10%fetal bovine serum under the same conditions.The VSMCs in two groups,stably transfected,were cultured for 12 d.The morphology of the cells in two groups were observed and photographed under inverted microscope.The DEGs were selected by Hisat2 software,and Gene Ontology(GO)functional and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)signaling pathway enrichment analysis were performed by Stringtie software from three aspects,such as biological processes(BP),molecular functions(MF),and cellular components(CC).The calcification of the cells in two groups was observed by Von Kossa staining method.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to analyze the expression levels of alkaline phosphatase(ALP),bone morphogenetic protein 2(BMP2),alpha-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),tumor protein 53(Tp53),glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),ferritin light chain 1(Ftl1),and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase D1(GPLD1)mRNA in the cells in two groups.Results:Compared with control group,there were 2 524 DEGs in the cells in model group,and there were 1 368 upregulated DEGs and 1 156 downregulated DEGs.Clustering of DEGs between the cells in two groups was distinct.The GO functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis results showed that the upregulated DEGs were primarily involved in regulating the microtubule cytoskeleton,cell polarity,protein localization,and cell cycle regulation among BPs;in constructing cell membrane,microtubule organization,chromosomes,and kinetochore among CCs;and functioning in phosphatidylinositol phosphate,Rho GTPase protein binding,transmembrane transport,and protein kinase regulatory activity among MFs.Downregulated DEGs were mainly involved in cytoplasmic translation,protein membrane localization,mRNA metabolism,and protein endoplasmic reticulum localization among BPs;in forming ribosome subunits,cell membrane,and autophagy among CCs;and functioning in single-stranded DNA,ribonucleoprotein complex,growth factor binding,regulating protein kinase activity,and catalytic activity among MFs.Seven signaling pathways were significantly enriched in upregulated genes,most notably in the biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol(GPI)anchors;whereas 18 signaling pathways were significantly enriched in the downregulated genes,most notably in ferroptosis.The RT-qPCR results showed that compared with control group,the expression levels of GPX4,Ftl1,and Tp53 mRNA in the cells in model group were significantly decreased(P<0.01),while the expression level of GPLD1 mRNA was significantly increased(P<0.01);compared with control group,the expression level of α-SMA mRNA in the cells in model group was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the expression levels of ALP and BMP2 mRNA were significantly increased(P<0.01).Conclusion:The VSMCs underwent calcification and normal cells exhibit the DEGs.The key signaling pathways in the calcification induced by high phosphate in the VSMCs include ferroptosis and GPI anchor biosynthesis,mediated primarily through GPX4,Ftl1,Tp53,and GPLD1.
