Objective To investigate the correlation between transformational leadership style and nurses' job satisfaction in emergency department.Method The survey was done among 168 emergency department nurses from 4 first class hospitals in Guangzhou by the demographic information,multifactor leadership questionnaire and Chinese nurses' job satisfaction scale to investigate the status of transformational leadership style perceived by nurses and nurses' job satisfaction in the emergency departments.Results The score of transformational leadership style perceived by the nurses in the emergency department was (50.60±14.40) and jop satisfaction was (79.80±13.30).The transformational leadership style was positively correlated with nurses' job satisfaction (P＜0.01).Conclusions The transformational leadership style is middle-high level.The nurses' job satisfaction is at low level,Nursing managers should play an active role in transformational leadership style to enhance nurses' job satisfaction in emergency departments.

Objective To explore the relationships among nurses’intent to stay,occupational commitment and managers’ leadership styles in emergency department.Methods A total of 130 nurses in emergency department were recruited by convenience sampling method from three tertiary hospitals in Guangzhou.They were investigated by using Nurses’Intent to Stay Questionnaire, Nurses’Occupational Commitment Questionnaire and Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire(MLQ).Results The score of nurses’ intent to stay and occupational commitment were(20?19±3?74)and(76?16±12?13),respectively;both were at medium levels and occupational commitment,transformational leadership style were positively correlated with nurses’intent to stay(P<0?05).Nurses perceived their managers as transformational leaders more often than transactional leaders.Conclusions Both the current nurses’ intent to stay,occupational commitment were at medium levels.The influential factors of nurses’intent to stay in emergency department included emergency work experience,emotional commitment and normative commitment.In order to increase nurses’retention and stabilize the healthy development of nursing personnel,nurse managers should improve the level of nurses’occupational commitment.

Objective To analysis the activity of transcriptional factors in endometrial cancer cell lines with different estrogen receptor subtypes. Methods The mRNA levels of estrogen receptor (ER) was detected by quantitative RT-PCR , and the activity of transcriptional factors was also analysed by 345-channel protein/DNA array in RL-952 ( the expression status of ERα and ERβ both positive), HEC-1A [ERα(±),while ERβ negative] and HEC-1B (ERα and ERβ both negative). The transcription factors of NFkBp65 and p38MAPK with different activity were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) to confirm the results of protein/DNA array. Results The mRNA levels of ERα in RL-952, HEC-1A and HEC-1B were (6780±282 ), ( 684±84 ) and ( 168±38 ) eopy/ng, respectively. Among 345 candidate transcriptional factors, there were 28 factors associated with ER status. Compared with RL-952 cells, 13 transcriptional activity factors were concomitandy up-regulation, while 15 concomitantly down-regulation in HEC-1A and HEC-1B cells. Transcriptional activities of TrF (1)-1, NRF-1, TCE were significantly correlated with the high-expression status of ERα mRNA ( r =0.523, P=0.037 ), while RFX123 and Ikaros were signitleanfly correlated with the low-expression status of ERα mRNA ( r=-0.312, P=0.041 ). Conclusion Transcriptional factors of TTF(1)-1, NBF-1, TCE may be associated with ER-mediated signal pathway, while RFX123 and Ikaros may be associated with non ER-mediatecl signal pathway in endometrial cancer.

BACKGROUND: There is no effective method to identify liver cancer stem cells until now, which has become one of the major challenges in this field. OBJECTIVE: To explore a more effective and suitable way for the identification of liver cancer stem cells in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. METHODS: Firstly, the single cell separation technique was used to obtain single cells, which were seeded into 96-wel plates one by one. Secondly, cell sublines derived from single cell colonies (tumorigenic colonies) were selected and obtained. At last, the cells from these clones were transplanted into the forelimb armpits of nude mice to observe the tumorigenic ability. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The number of holes of single cells obtained was 371 by the single cell separation technique, and the success rate was 96.4%. According to the growth of cell clone, tumorigenic colonies were selected to be transplanted to the forelimb armpits of nude mice, and the tumor formation rate of the colonies was 100%. The identification model of single-cell-transplant-tumorigenic-test for liver cancer stem cells is confirmed to be preliminarily established, which lays the technology and methodological basis for the follow-up research.

BACKGROUND:Until now, little has been reported on establishment of pancreatic stem cell strains and lines,and the purification of pancreatic stem cells is difficult since the cell line establish rate is low.OBJECTIVE:To explore a more rational and effective technique of in vitro separation and continuous passage of pancreatic stem cells, with the hope to establish cell strains and even cell lines and to lay the foundation for the follow-up study of pancreatic stem cells in the treatment of diabetes.METHODS:Firstly, Percoll discontinuous density gradient centrifugation method was applied to separate the mouse pancreatic endocrine portion from the exocrine portion, then to obtain cell strains with highly proliferative ability and low differentiation from pancreatic endocrine portion-the islet. We used mouse embryonic fibroblasts treated with mitomycin C as a feeder layer, for in vitro continuous culture of islet-derived pancreatic stem cells under feeder layer conditions until they were transferred to the 30th passage to establish cell lines. Then pancreatic stem cell line derived from pancreatic islet was detected and identified by a series of tests including growth characteristic test, morphological observation, related molecular marker identification and differentiation characteristic identification.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the continuous process of passage, pancreatic stem cells showed active proliferative ability, and maintained the typical morphological characteristics of stem cells and expression of pancreatic stem cell marker-Nestin. After induction, pancreatic stem cells showed insulin gene expression,reflecting their differentiation potential. Therefore, under the condition of feeder layer, the pancreatic stem cell line derived from Kunming mice was successfully established and the related identification was completed,which lays the foundation for the following research.

Objective To explore MRI features in diagnosis of placenta accrete(PA).Methods MRI images of 19 patients with PA and 14 normal subjects were reviewed retrospectively.MRI features of the placenta and adjacent structures were analyzed and compared.Results Compared to the MRI findings of the normal subjects,abnormal uterine bulging,heterogeneous signal intensity of the placenta,and hypo-intensity intraplacental bands on T2WI were significantly higher in the patients with placenta accrete (P= 0.000,P=0.003 and P=0.015,respectively).The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and accuracy of the three features diagnosing placenta accrete were 78.95%,85.71%,88.24%,75.00%,81.82%;84.21%,71.43%,80.00%, 76.92%,78.79%;73.68%,71.43%,77.78%,66.67% and 72.73%,respectively.Conclusion MRI has important value in diagnosing PA.The MRI features of abnormal uterine bulging,heterogeneous signal intensity within the placenta,and hypo-intensity intraplacental bands on T2WI are useful for diagnosis.

Objective To explore the effect of acute endurance exercise on the balance control,maximum contraction of the back extensor and the anticipatory postural adjustments(APAs) and compensatory postural adjustments (CPAs) of the lumbar vertebra.Methods Seventeen male students from a police college participated in this study voluntarily.Three tests were performed right before and after the 10000 meters run:the single foot standing test with eyes closed,maximum contraction test of the back extensor and arm-rising test.The maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) of the back extensor and the time of standing with eyes closed were collected.The sEMG activities of lumbar erector spinae(LES) and Lumbar multifidus(LMF) as lumbar stable muscles were recorded.The pre-activation time and integrated EMG of APAs and CPAs were calculated.Results Before and after the 10000 meters run,no significant difference was observed in MVC,but the time of single foot standing decreased significantly.On the condition of the internal postural perturbation,the LES was activated significantly earlier and the APAs IEMG of LMF decreased significantly after the run,but no significant difference was observed in the pre-activation time of LMF and APAs IEMG of LES.The CPAs IEMG of LES and LMF both decreased significantly after the run.Conclusions The acute endurance exercise of 10000 meters run does not cause fatigue of lumbar stable muscles,but it has an effect on the performance of body balance control.It has effects on the postural control strategies of the central nerve system in response to the internal sudden postural perturbation,resulting in the earlier pre-activation of LES to compensate the decreased activation magnitude of LMF.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of intracranial infection caused by Mycobacterium lentiflavum. Methods:The clinical data of a patient with intracranial infection caused by Mycobacterium lentiflavum admitted to Tianjin Haihe Hospital in May 2023 were collected. Meanwhile relevant literatures in databases were searched. Only 1 English literature (1 patient) was obtained. The clinical characteristics of this patient and the case reported in the literature were analyzed and summarized. Results:Totally 2 patients, including this case, and the patient with meningoencephalitis caused by Mycobacterium lentiflavum reported in the literature, both are females, 42 and 55 years old respectively, both manifested a chronic course, without fever, and presented progressive headache and cognitive impairment. Clinical manifestations also included abnormal mental behavior, limb weakness, and seizure. At the early stage, only intracranial pressure increased, and cerebrospinal fluid tests were negative. As the disease aggravated, there was an elevation of cerebrospinal fluid cells and protein, with normal levels of glucose and chloride. Using brain tissue obtained by biopsy for polymerase chain reaction or next-generation sequencing examination, the pathogenic microorganism was confirmed, which made accurate diagnosis possible. Antibiotic treatment had good efficacy, with a long treatment course and a good prognosis. Conclusions:Central nervous system infection caused by Mycobacterium lentiflavum is very rare, and a chronic disease course makes diagnosis very difficult. The treatment effect is significant, and the prognosis is excellent.

Background Aedes albopictus is the dominant mosquito species in residential areas in Shanghai. There are many types of small containers with accumulated water in residential areas, providing a large number of breeding environments for Aedes alpopicuts and leading to an increasing transmission risk of mosquito-borne diseases. Objective To use random forest to predict breeding of Aedes mosquitoes in small aquatic container habitat in two concentrated reconstruction communities of rural areas in Shanghai, and to understand associated influence of environmental factors on the breeding of Aedes mosquitoes in the process of urbanization.Methods Small-scale habitat surveys of Aedes mosquitoes were carried out in two suburb concentrated reconstruction communities (Community A and B) in Shanghai, and the environment where the habitat was located was recorded and analyzed in both communities. The habitat where eggs, larvae, or pupae were found was recorded as positive. Spatial weight matrix was applied on a household basis, and global Moran's I index was used to carry out spatial autocorrelation analysis on the small-scale habitat and positive habitat in the environment of the two communities. When Moran's I is greater than 0, it means that the data present a positive spatial correlation; when Moran's I is less than 0, it means that the data are spatially negatively correlated; when Moran's I is 0, the spatial distribution is random. Combining the results of P and Z values, we explored the spatial distribution characteristics of small-scale habitat and positive habitat in the community environment. Random forest algorithm in machine learning was used to classify and sort environmental-related factors, and predict the breeding of Aedes mosquitoes in small aquatic habitat; receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to carry out model fitting evaluation. Results The environmental factors including building location (χ²=23.35, P<0.001), open space (χ²=8.83, P=0.003), and having trees (χ²=11.02, P=0.001) had a significant impact on the positive rate of small-scale habitat. The results of spatial characteristics analysis showed that the global Moran's I index of small-scale habitat was −0.092 (Z=−1.09, P=0.274) in Community A and 0.034 (Z=0.52, P=0.602) in Community B, and the global Moran's I index of positive habitat was −0.092 (Z=−1.14, P=0.255) in Community A and 0.070 (Z=0.95, P=0.342) in Community B. Since the P values of Community A and B were greater than 0.1 and the Z values were between −1.65 and 1.65, for both small-scale habitat and positive habitat the spatial characteristics were randomly distributed and no significant spatial aggregation was found. In the fitted random forest algorithm classification prediction model with the top 10 characteristic factors of importance, the area under curve (AUC) value was 0.95, and the prediction fitting effect was satisfactory. The results of classification and sorting indicated that counts of household small-scale habitat and positive habitat were the most important factors for breeding. Conclusion The random forest model constructed by environmental factor indicators can be used to predict the breeding situation of Aedes mosquitoes in small-scale aquatic habitat, and provide a basis for scientific prevention and control of mosquito breeding for the target area.
