Objective:To investigate the core competency and general self-efficacy status of geriatric nursing assistants in combination of medical treatment and endowment pension institutions and analyze their correlation.Methods:From December 2019 to February 2020, the convenient sampling method was used to select 300 geriatric nursing assistants from 15 combination of medical treatment and endowment pension institutions in Urumqi as the research objects. The general data questionnaire, Geriatric Nursing Assistants' Core Competence Questionnaire and General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) were used to conduct the questionnaire survey. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the relationship between them.Results:A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed and 292 were effectively received, with an effective recovery rate of 97.3%. The total score of core competency of 292 geriatric nursing assistants was (106.44±15.35) , and average score of each item was (3.94±0.57) , which were in the upper middle level. The total score of self-efficacy was (26.95±6.30) , which was in the middle level. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the total score of core competence and scores of various dimensions were positively correlated with the total score of GSES ( r=0.232-0.432, P<0.01) . Multiple linear regression analysis showed that general self-efficacy was the influencing factor of core competence of geriatric nursing assistants (standardized regression coefficient was 0.264, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Self-efficacy is an important influencing factor of core competence of geriatric nursing assistants. Improving the self-efficacy of geriatric nursing assistants can optimize their core competence and help development of the combination of medical and health care pension model.

Objective To discuss the use of the APP to continue nursing effect on the quality of life of children with cerebral palsy. Methods A total of 100 cases of cerebral palsy hospitalized in July to December of 2016 were selected as the observation group, and the continuation nursing based on"Xinjiang cerebral palsy mobile APP"was carried out. A total of 102 cases of cerebral palsy were used as the control group in the hospital in January to June of 2016, and the traditional continuation nursing was carried out, and the self-care ability and quality of life of the children were evaluated by Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL), Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory TM3.0-Rheumatology (PedsQLTM3.0) on admission hospital, discharge and 6 months after discharge. Results The time, time and group interaction of 2 groups of children with cerebral palsy in ADL score were statistically significant (F=231.819, 33.382, P<0.01). The ADL score of 6 months after discharge in the observation group was (66.100 ± 7.368) points, the control group was (59.230 ± 10.534) points, and there was statistically significant (t=3.802, P<0.01). The time, group and time group interaction of 2 groups of children with cerebral palsy in PedsQLTM3.0 score were statistically significant (F=23.398, 234.374, 149.209, P<0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in the observation group between admission hospital and discharge, 6 months after discharge and discharge (t=-3.384,-4.198, P<0.05 or 0.01). The difference was statistically significant in control group between discharge and admission hospital(t =-17.809, P <0.01), but there was no significant difference between 6 months after discharge and discharge (P> 0.05). Conclusions Based on the continuation of"Xinjiang cerebral palsy mobile APP", nursing can improve the ability to care for children with cerebral palsy life, help children improve quality of life. Worthy of further promotion.

Objective:To explore the application value of urine γ-synuclein (SNCG) in the diagnosis of bladder cancer.Methods:A total of urine samples from 129 patients with bladder cancer (malignant lesion group), 157 patients with urinary system benign lesions (benign lesion group), and 177 healthy people (the healthy control group) from January 2017 to April 2020 in the Fifth Clinical Medical College of Shanxi Medical University and Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital were collected. The concentration of SNCG in the collected urine was detected by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to determine its sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for the diagnosis of bladder cancer.Results:The urine SNCG concentration in malignant lesion group [4.28 ng/ml (0.53-8.79 ng/ml)] was higher than that in healthy controls [1.44 ng/ml (0.56-3.51) ng/ml, H = 122.9, P < 0.01] and benign lesion group [1.97 ng/ml (0.51-5.87) ng/ml, H = 88.2, P < 0.01], and the concentration of urine SNCG in benign lesion group was higher than that in healthy controls ( H = 17.1, P < 0.01). ROC area under the curve (AUC) of urine SNCG in differentiating benign lesion group from healthy controls was 0.871(95% CI 0.819-0.923, P < 0.01), the best cut-off value was 2.79 ng/ml, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity was 0.798 and 0. 977, respectively. AUC of urine SNCG in differentiating malignant lesion group from benign lesion group was 0.823(95% CI 0.769-0.877, P < 0.01), the best cut-off value was 3.54 ng/ml, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity was 0.713 and 0.917, respectively. AUC of urine SNCG in differentiating malignant lesion group from healthy controls plus benign lesion group was 0.848 (95% CI 0.797-0.899, P < 0.01), the best cut-off value was 2.87 ng/ml, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity was 0.791 and 0.901, respectively. Conclusions:The concentration of SNCG in urine of patients with bladder cancer is higher than that of patients with benign urinary lesions and healthy people. Urine SNCG has a good application value in the diagnosis of bladder cancer.

Objective :
The purpose of this study was to clarify the regulatory effect and mechanism of Src homology-2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-2 (SHP2) on human periodontal ligament stem cell (hPDLSC) proliferation and osteogenic differentiation under inflammatory environment and to provide a new target for the treatment of periodontitis.
Methods:
SHP2 was knocked down in hPDLSCs, and the transfection efficiency of SHP2 was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot. An in vitro inflammatory environment was created using tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). The effect of SHP2 knockdown on hPDLSC viability under normal and inflammatory conditions was detected by CCK-8, and the osteogenic capacity of hPDLSCs under normal and inflammatory conditions was detected by ALP staining, ALP activity, ARS staining, RT-qPCR and Western blot. The mechanism by which SHP2 knockdown affected the MAPK pathway and its downstream NF-κB pathway under inflammatory conditions was assessed by Western blot.
Results:
Green fluorescence was observed after transfection for 72 h, and the titer of SHP2 shRNA recombinant lentivirus was 2.9×108 TU/mL. SHP2 expression was significantly downregulated in lentivirus-transfected cells, as demonstrated by Western blot and RT-qPCR (P<0.001). SHP2 knockdown inhibited hPDLSC proliferation to a certain extent and increased the expression of early osteogenic markers under normal conditions, including increased ALP activity and increased ALP and COL-1 expression (P<0.05). However, SHP2 knockdown exerted no effect on mineralized nodule formation. In the TNF-α- and IL-1β-induced inflammatory environment, SHP2 knockdown exerted no effect on hPDLSC proliferation (P>0.05). Osteogenic markers were upregulated (P<0.05), and mineralized nodules were significantly increased (P<0.05) after SHP2 knockdown. Western blot analysis showed that p65 phosphorylation and IκB-α degradation were reduced in SHP2-knockdown hPDLSCs in the inflammatory environment. Moreover, SHP2 knockdown significantly inhibited the expression of p-p38 and p-JNK MAPK, which represent pathways upstream of the NF-κB pathway (P<0.05).
Conclusion
SHP2 knockdown did not affect cell viability but promoted the osteogenic potential of hPDLSCs by inhibiting the MAPK/NF-κB-mediated signaling pathway under inflammatory environment.
