PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the casual relationship between nurses' mentoring and turnover intention and to verify the goodness of fit between a hypothetical model and actual data in order to suggest an adequate model. METHODS: The survey was conducted with 434 nurses working in general hospitals in Seoul. Data were collected during February 2013, and analyzed with SPSS Windows 18.0 and AMOS 7.0. RESULTS: Mentoring was found to have a direct effect on decrease in role stress. Role stress had a direct effect on increase in burnout and mentoring, with role stress as a mediator, there was an indirect effect on burnout. Burnout had a direct effect on increase in turnover intention, and role stress, with burnout as a mediator, and mentoring, through role stress and burnout, an indirect effect was found on increase in turnover intention. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that nursing managers should put effort into reducing role stress and burnout, while seeking to establish a more efficient mentoring system so that for nurses, there will be a lowering of turnover intention.

BACKGROUND: Microchimerism detected after solid organ transplatnation has been reported to be associated with improved graft survival with some controversies. However, the effect of pretransplantation microchimerism on the graft survival has not been studied to date. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pretransplantation fetomaternal microchimerism on the graft survival in renal transplantation. METHODS: A total of 27 cases of renal transplantation performed between mother and child pairs during the period from 1996 to 2004 at the Seoul National University Hospital were studied retrospectively. Presence of pretransplantation fetomaternal microchimerism was detected using DNA samples extracted from peripheral blood collected before the operation. Microchimerism for the HLA-DRB1 gene of non-inherited maternal antigen was detected using nested PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) method. The function and survival of allograft was compared between the groups with and without microchimerism. RESULTS: Microchimerism was detected in 10 (37%) of the 27 cases. In the group with microchimerism, serum creatinine levels at one and three years after transplantation tended to be lower in the patients with microchimerism than in those without microchimerism (one year, 1.1 vs 1.3 mg/dL, P=0.133; three years, 1.2 vs 1.5 mg/dL, P=0.083). The rejection free survival tended to be longer in the patients with microchimerism than in those without microchimerism (113.5 vs 72.5 months, P=0.146). CONCLUSIONS: This study was limited by small number of cases, and an extended study on a larger number of patients is needed to clarify the role of pretransplantation fetomaternal microchimerism on allograft survival.

The number of persons infected by HIV/AIDS has consistently increased in Korea since the first case of HIV/AIDS infection in 1985 and reached 15,208 by 2016. About 1,100 new patients with HIV/ AIDS infections have emerged every year since 2013. In Korea, the Korea HIV/AIDS Cohort Study was established for the evidenced-based prevention, treatment, and effective management of patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in December 2006. This study monitored 1,438 patients, who accounted for about 10% of all patients with HIV/AIDS in Korea, for 10 years with the following aims: (1) to develop an administrative system for the establishment of a HIV/AIDS cohort-based study; (2) to standardize methodologies and the case report forms; and (3) to standardize multi-cohort data and develop a data cleaning method. This study aims to monitor at least 1,000 patients (excluding those for whom investigation had been completed) per year (estimated number of patients who can be monitored by January 2018: 939). By December 2016, the sex distribution was 93.3% for men, and 6.7% for women (gender ratio, 13.9:1.0), and 98.9% of all participants were Korean. More than 50.0% of the participants were confirmed as HIV positive after 2006. This study reports competitive, long-term research that aimed to develop policies for the prevention of chronic infectious diseases for patients with HIV. The data collected over the last decade will be used to develop indices for HIV treatment and health promotion.
