Objective:To explore the relationship between psychological resilience,professional identity and employment pressure of nursing students with different educational levels,and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 208 nursing students with different educational levels were investigated by using the general information questionnaire,the employment pressure questionnaire of nursing students,the psychological resilience scale and the professional identity questionnaire.The correlation among psychological resilience,professional identity and employment stress was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:The total score of professional identity,psychological resilience,and employment stress was(54.46±12.34),(57.62±18.66),and(98.30±20.25),respectively.There was no significant difference in professional identity score and psychological resilience score among nursing students with different educational levels(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the employment stress scores between nursing students upgrading from a junior college and undergraduate and junior college nursing students(P＞0.05),while the employment stress score of junior college nursing students were significantly higher than that of undergraduate nursing students(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the total score of employment stress was positively correlated with the total score of psychological resilience(r=0.252),and the total score of professional identity(r=0.312)(P＜0.01).Conclusions:The psychological resilience of nursing students is at the average level,professional identity is low,and the employment pressure of junior college nursing students is higher than that of undergraduates.Targeted interventions should be developed to improve the psychological resilience and professional identity of nursing students,and reduce the employment pressure level of junior college nursing students.

Objective:To analyze the results of the practice test and formal test of the annual professional proficiency test for residents in 2022, to investigate related influencing factors and the effectiveness of the practice test, and to propose the measures for improving the results of the annual professional proficiency test.Methods:The scores of the annual professional proficiency test were analyzed for 202 residents who participated in the test in 2022, and the data on sex, education background, type of personnel, whether they passed the medical licensing examination, and practice test scores were analyzed to investigate related influencing factors. SPSS 23.0 and GraphPad Prism 8 were used for the chi-square test, the t-test, the one-way of variance, and the Fisher's exact test. A multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify influencing factors, and a Pearson correlation analysis was also performed. Results:The scores of the annual professional proficiency test for 202 residents were normally distributed with the highest number of the residents with a score of 90-99 points and the lowest number of the residents with a score of <70 points. The residents who passed the medical licensing examination had a significantly higher score of the annual professional proficiency test than those who failed the examination ( t=2.87, P=0.005), and the residents who passed the three practice tests had a significantly higher score of the annual professional proficiency test than those who failed the practice tests ( P<0.05). The score of the second practice test, the score of the third practice test, and the passing of medical licensing examination were independent influencing factors for the score of annual professional proficiency test ( R2=0.236, R2=0.201, F=6.60, P<0.05). The correlation analysis showed that the scores of the three practice tests were positively correlated with the final score ( r=0.189, 0.373, and 0.311, P<0.05). Conclusions:Improving the passing rate of medical licensing examination and strengthening pre-examination practice tests can help to improve the score of annual professional proficiency test. At the same time, it is necessary to improve the quality of training through the measures such as strengthening the homogenization management of different types of students, improving the attention and enthusiasm of all levels, and accelerating the construction of question banks.

Objective To observe the alterations in soleus nerve conduction velocities induced by hindlimb immobilization. Methods 24 healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group, immobilization 7 days group and immobilization 14 days group with 8 cases in each group. The plaster cast was fixed as the method to induce a hindllimb immobilization model in rats. The afferent thin fibers conduction velocity and the latency of M wave were observed with electrophysiological technique. Results 7 days after immobilization,the conduction velocity of muscle spindle primary afferent fiber decreased (P<0.05), the latency of M wave significantly prolonged 14 days after immobilization (P<0.05). Conclusion The soleus nerve conduction velocities decrease significantly following hindlimb immobilization and the alterations in afferent fibers are more serious than that in efferent fibers.

BACKGROUND:Critical energy release rate is a global fracture parameter that could be measured during the failing process,and its value may change under different failure modes even in the same structure. OBJECTIVE:To propose an approach to predict the critical energy release rate in the femoral cortical bone structure under different failure modes. METHODS:Three-point bending and axial compression experiments and the corresponding fracture simulations were performed on the rat femoral cortical bone structures.Different critical energy release rates were repeatedly assigned to the models to perform fracture simulation,and the predicted load-displacement curves in each simulation were compared with the experimental data to back-calculate the critical energy release rate.The successful fit was that the differences in the fracture parameters between the predicted and experimental results were less than 5%. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The results showed that the cortical bone structure occurred tensile open failure under three-point bending load,and the predicted critical energy release rate was 0.16 N/mm.(2)The same cortical bone structure occurred shear open failure under axial compression load,and the predicted critical energy release rate was 0.12 N/mm,which indicates that the critical energy release rate of the same cortical bone structure under different failure modes was different.(3)A comprehensive analysis from the perspectives of material mechanical properties and damage mechanism was conducted to reveal the reasons for the differences in the critical energy release rate in the cortical bone structure under different failure modes,which provided a theoretical basis for the measurement of the energy release rate and the accurate fracture simulation.

Objective To predict the micro-level energy release rate in the rat femoral cortical bone and investigate the variation in the micro-level energy release rate with age.Methods Based on previous experimental data and numerical simulation of fracture modes for cortical bone,load-displacement curves and fracture modes measured by simulation and experiment were compared,and the micro-level energy release rates of rat femoral cortical bone at different months were predicted by back-calculation.Results It was predicted that the micro-level energy release rate of rat femoral cortical bone at 1-,3-,5-,7-,9-,11-,and 15-month age was 0.08-0.12,0.12-0.14,0.15-0.19,0.25-0.28,0.23-0.25,0.19-0.22,and 0.13-0.16 N/mm,respectively.Conclusions The decrease in the microlevel energy release rate with increasing age led to a decreasing failure load,indicating that the microlevel energy release rate is one of the main factors determining fracture occurrence;however,no significant decrease was observed at the time of fracture,indicating that the microlevel energy release rate was not linearly proportional to the fracture time.These results can help explain the mechanism of cortical bone fractures at the clinical level.
