Objective:To understand the status quo of nurses' professional mission and explore the influencing factors of nurses' professional mission.Methods:From November to December, 2018, 316 nurses from three tertiary hospitals in Tianjin were selected as the research objects. The occupational mission scale was used to investigate the sense of professional mission, the nursing work environment scale was used for the nursing work environment survey, and the work family conflict scale was used for the work family conflict investigation. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation among nurses' sense of professional mission, nursing work environment and work family conflict; multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of nurses' sense of professional mission.Results:The score of professional mission of nurses was (2.90±0.56) . Average monthly income, nursing work environment and work family conflict were the influencing factors of nurses' professional mission ( P<0.05) . The results of hierarchical regression showed that the higher the average monthly income ( β=0.252) , the higher the sense of professional mission of nurses ( R2=0.064) ; after controlling general data, the two dimensions of nursing work environment: Nurses' participation in hospital affairs ( β=0.263) , high-quality nursing service foundation ( β=0.368) , and work family conflict ( β=-0.145) could explain 43.1% of the total variation of professional mission. Conclusion:The sense of professional mission of nurses is above the middle level. Nursing managers should start with the influencing factors such as average monthly income, nursing working environment and work family conflict, so as to stimulate or improve nurses' sense of professional mission.

Objective:To investigate the factors affecting the prognosis of stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer after laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH), and to compare the prognosis and recurrence sites of patients with different colpotomy paths.Methods:The clinical data of 965 patients with stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer who underwent LRH in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018 were collected. The median age was 47.0 years of all patients with a median follow-up of 62 months (48-74 months). Cox regression was used to perform the univariate and multivariate analysis of the clinicopathological factors associated with the prognosis that included disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients were categorized into LRH through vaginal colpotomy (VC group, n=475) and LRH through intracorporeal colpotomy (IC group, n=490) according to the colpotomic approaches. The prognosis and recurrence sites of patients in each group were compared. Results:(1) During the follow-up period, 137 cases recurred (14.2%, 137/965) and 98 cases died (10.2%, 98/965). The 5-year DFS and OS were 85.8% and 89.9%, respectively. In univariate analysis, positive vaginal margin (PVM) was significantly affected the 5-year OS of patients with cervical cancer ( P=0.023), while clinical stage, maximum diameter of tumor, degree of pathological differentiation, lymph node metastasis (LNM), depth of cervical stromal invasion, parametrium involvement, and uterine corpus invasion (UCI) were significantly associated with 5-year DFS and OS in patients with cervical cancer (all P<0.05). In multivariate analysis, clinical stage ( HR=1.882, 95% CI: 1.305-2.716), LNM ( HR=2.178, 95% CI: 1.483-3.200) and UCI ( HR=3.650, 95% CI: 1.906-6.988) were independent risk factors of 5-year DFS (all P<0.001). Clinical stage ( HR=2.500, 95% CI: 1.580-3.956), LNM ( HR=2.053, 95% CI: 1.309-3.218), UCI ( HR=3.984, 95%C I: 1.917-8.280), PVM ( HR=3.235, 95% CI: 1.021-10.244) were independent risk factors of 5-year OS (all P<0.05). (2) Different colpotomy paths did not significantly affect the 5-year DFS and OS of patients with stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer. The 5-year DFS in VC group and IC group were 85.9% and 85.6% ( P=0.794), and the 5-year OS were 90.8% and 89.3% ( P=0.966), respectively. Recurrence patterns consisted of intraperitoneal recurrence, pelvic recurrence, vaginal stump recurrence, and lymph node and distant metastasis. The intraperitoneal recurrence rate of VC group was significantly lower than that of IC group [0.6%(3/468) vs 2.3% (11/485), P=0.037], while the rates of pelvic recurrence, vaginal stump recurrence, lymph node and distant metastasis and overall recurrence were not significantly different between two groups (all P>0.05). Subgroup analysis of patients with different clinical stages, LNM and UCI showed that statistical differences of the intraperitoneal recurrence rates between two groups were only in patients without LNM (0.5% vs 2.3%, P=0.030) or without UCI (0.7% vs 2.3%, P=0.037). Conclusions:Clinical stage, LNM, PVM and UCI are independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer. For patients without LNM or UCI, LRH through VC could reduce the intraperitoneal recurrence rate, while it is not enough to improve 5-year DFS and OS of patients. Low proportion of intraperitoneal recurrence, intra-operative tumor cells spillage to vagina stump and pelvic cavity might be the explanation.

Background:
and Purpose Ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIA) are associated with a mortality rate of up to 40% in the Chinese population, highlighting the critical need for targeted treatment interventions for at-risk individuals. Although the impact of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) gene mutations on susceptibility to intracranial aneurysms (IA) is well documented, the potential connection between ALDH2 rs671 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and RIA remains unexplored. Given the increased prevalence of ALDH2 gene mutations among Chinese Han individuals, it is clinically relevant to investigate the link between ALDH2 rs671 SNP and IA rupture.
Methods:
A prospective study was conducted on 546 patients diagnosed with IA to investigate the association between ALDH2 rs671 SNP and the risk of IA rupture.
Results:
The ALDH2 rs671 SNP (ALDH2*2) was significantly more prevalent in patients with unruptured IA (UIA) than in those with RIA (32.56% vs. 18.58%, P=0.004). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that people with the ALDH2 mutation (ALDH2*1/*2 and ALDH2*2/*2 gene type) had a significantly reduced odds ratio (OR=0.49; 95% confidence level [CI] 0.27–0.88; P=0.018) for RIAs. Age-specific subgroup analysis indicated that the ALDH2 mutation provided a stronger protective effect in individuals aged 60 years and above with IA compared to those under 60 years old (OR=0.38 vs. OR=0.52, both P<0.05).
Conclusion
The incidence of RIA was significantly higher in individuals with a normal ALDH2 gene (ALDH2*1/*1) than in those with an ALDH2 rs671 SNP (ALDH2*1/*2 or ALDH2*2/*2). ALDH2 rs671 SNP may serve as a protective factor against RIA in the Chinese Han population.
